WASBHTQTON LETTEB
Washington, Oct. 10, 1S92.
The republican complaint of a
lack of campaign boodle is made for
no other porpose than to deceive.
They have today a larger fund at the
disposal of their national committee
than was used by them in the cam
paign of 188S. This is no hearsay or
guessing, but an obsolute fact
Finding themselves so well fixed for
cash, the republican national com
' mittee appointed Mr. L. T. Michener,
of Indiana, who is Col. W. W. Dudley's
law partner, in this city, confidential
financial agent for the Western states
that are considered doubtful, with in
structions to spend any amount that
he may after personal investigation
consider necessary to keep those
states in the republican column, Mr.
Michener is now making that person
al investigation, giving his first atten
tion to his own state about which the
republicans are very much alarmed
8&Mr. Harrison knows from exper
ience the value of having a few good
offices to dangle in front of the
political workers of his party, there
fore no one was surprised when he
officially announced that none of the
numerous existing vacancies would be
filled until after election. He wishes
the impression to go out that the
men who do the most telling work for
him will have the pick of these places.
Among the most desirable vacancies
are an Assistant Secretary of the
Treasury; a first Assistant Post
Master General; a Commissioner of
the General Land Office, and a seat
on the bench of the Supreme Court
District of Columbia.
The fall season of the U. S.
Supreme Court opened today. The
only business transacted was the
swearing in of the new member,
Justice Shiras. of Pennsylvania, and
the official call of the Court on the
President.
With all his faults, and they are
certainly numerous enough, Com
missioner Raum has one merit, he is
grateful to Mr. Harrison for not hav
ing long ago kicked him out of the
Pension Office, and he is showing his
gratitude by leaving his official desk
and going upon the stump. This
week the Commissioner wili endeavor
to get in some fine work for Har
rison at the encampment of the
Uniort Veteran legion, at Indiana
polis. He will then go to Illinois,
where he is supposed to have some
influence with the soldier vote, and
make all sorts of promises to those
who want to get on the pensioi roll
as well as to those already on the roll
who are applicants for an increase in
pension.
Mr. Harrison's orders to members
of his cabinet and the heads of depart
mental bureaus of the government to
take the stump for him was a shrewdly
managed bit of politics. Mr. H. was
far too smait to shock those who be
lieved it wrong for members of his
official family to leave their duties to
engage in political work, but "there
are other ways to kill a dog" etc. A
few chiys ago Lige Halford, the Presi
dent's Private Secretary, gave out a
short but very carefully worded inter
view, in which he s a ed in substance
fho.
that instead of being opposed to mem
bers of the Cabinet and other promi
nent officials goi.ig on the stump, as
had been reported (doubtless by or
der), the President strongly favored
their taking that method of rendering
an account of their stewardship to the
people. Nov,- wasn't that a iuat way
of notifying the ollkials to get up and
hustle? It had an immediate effect,
and about every official who is of
sufficient prominence to be listened to
has already made arrangements to take
the stump. It is said that Attorney
General Miller, who lately stated in a
published interview that lie was 0
posed to federal officials making poli
tical speeches and believed their pro
per duty was to devote their time to
what they were paid for, has been told
that he must talk no more foolishness
during the campaign. He was ex
cused for making the ''break' 'because,
as Mr. Harrison said, "Miller knows
nothing about politics."
A new method of working the De
partment clerks for political contribu
tions has been put into operation,
which its originators claim is no vio
lation of the Civil Service law. The
clerk receives from his state republi
can association a circular letter asking
him if he has any "suggestion" to
make that will be beneficial to his
party to call at a given address, and
when he calls he is politely informed
that he has been assessed five percent
of his salary, and that he had better
loose no time in handing in the cash.
One of these circulars was sent to a
Missouri democratic cleik, who after
calling and satisfying himself of the
nature of the scheme laid the whole
matter before the Civil Service Com
mission. Tat Egan, T. S. Minister to Chili,
now here, says Mr. Blaine will take
the stump for Harrison, but he will
have to do so before Washington peo- !
pie will believe it.
The Largest in the World.
a coi.i.ieky that will employ 1400
men. its output joco tons daily.
The Lehigh and Wilkesbarre Coal
company's breaker now in course of
construction at South Wilkesbarre,
will, when completed, be the biggest
I'ling of its kind in the world. It will
employ 1.400 men and bojs, and have
a daily output of 3, coo tons.
The great struct tire contains no less
than 1,500,000 feel of lumber. All
the machinery, rolls, screens, etc., are
cased with dust proof covering to car
ry off all dust to a 17 foot fan, which
will discharge all dust into a box. The
steam pipes will exhaust condensed
steam into the box, so that not a par
ticle of dust will annoy the residents
of tha locality. This is the most cre
dible part of the work, and reflects
credit on all concerned. It will cer
tainly be much appreciated.
The shaft at this breaker is a very
gaseous one and two men are always
employed to combat the gas. The
utmost precautions have been taken
against Sre, and double lines of water
pipes are laid in each working plan,
so that if one fails the other may be
used. This shaft is very deep 1.100
feet, and the tremendous pressure of
water some times breaks the pipe.
The breaker's top is 1 40 feet from
the ground. Steps wind everywhere,
and safety guards are placed at all
points. On the roof there is 8co
square feet of asbestos roofing used
There are 400 windows. No mules
will be used on the outside work.
Along the net work of tracks the cars
will be run by gravity.
The hoisting engines are the largest
in the world. There is a main fan 35
ftet in diameter that makes forty re
volutions a minute, with an auxiliary
fan 20 feet in diameter, 160 revolu
tions per minute. There will be a
shaft begun for a third fan in January.
Thi breaker will start in December
or on January. 1.

ist of the New York division of the
Philadelphia and Reading railroad,
has been granted a new patent
for a locomotive. He claims
for the engine a speed of eighty
miles an hour and a saving of at least
25 per cent, on the wear and tear of
the roadbed. Its driving wheels will
have no weights or balances, such as
the engines have in use at present.
There will be four cylinders, and a
feature will be exceeding simplicity of

CHARLOTTE CUSHMAN'S LOVE.
A Itnmnnce In the Ufe of the (Irrat At
Iron.
Charlotte Cvtphm.m, "the nctresn, was
in love but once in her lifo. She met,
in Cincinnati, where she was placing,
an actor named Clark, with whom nho
fell in love. Through her effort Clark
was advanced to leading wan iu tha
company and the course of true love ran
unioothlr. One night the actress met a
strango woman behind the scenes be
tween the acts. The woman eamo up to
her and addressed her thns:
"You are Charlotte Cnnhman, tha
prcat actress. Haven't yon got enough
men to admire you without coming be
tween man and wife and robbin' ma of
my husband ?"
" Your husband r" cried Miss Cush
man, getting excited.
' Yes, and you have taken or yon are
trying to take him from me," continued
the ragged woman, looking Miss Cush
man fall in the face.
"Who is your husband ?"
"Conrad Clark," replied tho woman,
"the father of this child," pointing to a
half-starved, thin little child in her
aims.
Miss Cushman started as if she had
been shot. She went through her part
that night as nsual aeted it splendidly
brought down the house; then, after
the performance, she sent for Clark to
come to her room. Clark knocked and
then opened the door. 8he bronght
forward to him his wife and baby who
had been waiting in tho dressing-room
to receive him. Such a reception !
Charlotte Cushman never looked or
acted so grandly on the stage iu all her
lifo as she did that night in her dressing
room, says the Philadelphia Times. Sha
waved Clark away with greater majesty
than ever as Queen Catherine sha
waved awny Cardinal Wolsey, and then,
going to her hotel, probably had a
good crying spelL But she never loved
A Memorable Square Meal.
"If a man is blossoJ with a good ap
petite," said Mr. Stuybolt, "ho can get
along comfortably for quite a spell
without terrapin ; there may bo times,
indeed, when he will find the delights
of a banquet in a very simple meal.
I remember a day in the army, for in
stance, when, after we had been for
weeks without fresh vegetables of any
sort, there was issued to the regiment a
ration of potatoes. It so happened
that on the same day the sutler had on
ions. There were in our tent four men.
We got the company cook to give us
our rations of potatoes and of salt pork
uncooked, and we bought onions of the
sutler. We had at that time an old
saucepan that one of us had picked up
somewhere. We got out the saucepan
and cut up the pork and boiled it until
it was about half done. Then we put in
the onions, and then the potatoes,
which we had cut up into large pieces
as nearly as possible uniform in size, so
that they would all be done at the sama
time.
"While one man looked after the fire
another attended to the cooking. Tho
other two sat on the ground and ap
plauded that is, they sniffed the air
whenever the lid was taken off the
saucepan and looked at each other and
at the two men by the fire and smiled.
"When the stew was nearly done wo
put in a few hardtack to soften, and
when after a formal inspection by each
man it had been officially declared done,
the cook lifted the saucepan from the
fire and set it on the ground. The two
men who hod had the least to do had
been holding their plates and spoons
for fifteen minutes.
" Good r It makes me laugh when
ever I think of it"
Misunderstood.
The story goes that a man wrote to
the editor of a horticultural paper ask
ing what plants would be suitable ad
ditions to dried grasses for winter orna
ments. Tha editor replied:
" Acroclinium roseum, A. album, Gom
phrena globosa and G. globosa came."
When the man read this ha fairly
boiled over with rage, and immediately
sent a note ordering his paper to be dis
continued. He averred that an editor
who swore in that way, just because ha
was asked a simple question, should
have no support from him.
This reminds us of an English trav
eller whose conscience would not allow
him to swear, but who found that at tha
hotel in Franca where he was staying
tha waiters were so accustomed to hear
ing Englishmen use strong language that
they considered him a milksop, and ne
glected him accordingly. He there
fore hit upon this expedient to secure a
proper amount of attention: When ha
gave an order he rolled out in sonorous
tones the words, "Northumberland,
Cumberland, Durham." The effect was
marvellous. He was afterwards waited
upon with the greatest alacrity and as
siduity. TnuumUaioa of Sound.
The following beautiful experiment,
described by Professor Tyndall, shows
how musio may be transmitted by an
ordinary wooden rod.
In a room two floors beneath his lee
ture-roora there was a piano, upon
which an artist was playing, but tho
audience could not hear it A rod of
deal, with its lower end resting upon
the sounding-board of the piano, ex
tended upward through the two floors,
its upper end being exposed before tho
lecture table. But still not a sound
was heard. A violin was then placed
upon the end of the rod, which was
thrown into resonance by the ascending
thrills, and instantly the musio of tho
piano was given out in the lecture-room.
A guitar and harp were substituted for
the violin, and with the same result.
The vibrations of the piano strings were
communicated to the sounding-board,
they traversed the long rod, were repro
duced by the resonant bodies above, tha
air was carved into waves, and tha
whole musical composition was deliv
ered to the listening audience.
