ing and drinking. There is qaite as
much drinking as eating, for bottles of
beer and wine are everywhere te be Been.
Of course there are temperance men in
congress, tcinpcrance men who are teo tee teo
tetalers here as well as at home; bnt
there are ethers who pese as prohibition
its in the districts which they represent,
and in Washington drink like fishes.
One of the first things that attracts our
attention as we enter is a little scene in
the far room, dovetcd te the use of la
dies. There sits a well known prohibi
tion statesman sipping wine with a femi
nine friend. The pair are evidently out
for a geed time, for the sparkle of the
wine is already te be seen in their eyes,
and tliere is a bettle in the cooler which
has net yet been opened.
Congressmen complain that the air in
the hall of the heuse is dry and arid;
that thcre is something in it which
causes thirst. However this may be, the
fact remains that n surprising number
of them have their bottles of beer befere
thorn. A few drink wine, but only a
few. The avcroge congressman does net
drink wine when he has te buy it him
self. The averuge congressman counts
the cost of things, because he has te.
Living is at best an expensive thing in
Washington. I knew newspaper men
who have incomes exceeding a congress
man's salary, and they can't save a cent.
Hew the congressman who has no in in in
corae but his salary and that is all the
majority have mannge te make both
ends meet after paying election expenses
and entertaining their constituents, is
mere than I can understand.
There is a law, or, what is the same
thing, a joint resolution of Congress, for
bidding the sale of liquor in the Capitel.
But, goodness knows, that law is a dead
letter. One may have served him as
much beer, wine nnd whisky in cither
the heuse or senate restaurant as he
cares te drink or pay for. Ner does he

need call for "cold tea" when he wants
whisky, as in the old days. The waiter
bringsliiiii a cTite little caraiTe contain
ing a geed sized drink, and the customer
pours it out nnd gulps it down. Every
one knows it is whisky there is no dis dis
guise about it though nobody pays any
attention. Though there is plenty of
liquor and plenty of drinking in the
Capitel, it must be said for the states
men that they drink in moderation.
During this whele winter I have seen but
ene member of congress en the Heer in
a Ptate of intoxication, and this ene gets
drunk about three times a week with
painful regularity. In the senate there
are two statesmen who habitually drink
mere liquor than is geed for them, but
only two. Congress is a pretty sober
body.
The average law maker usually break
fasts at 0 o'clock nnd spends an hour or
two with his mull or in visiting the de
partments lefore going te the Capitel.
He generally arrives nt the scene of his
labors at 11 or 11:30, unless there is a
committee meeting which he must at
tend. Then he appears an hour earlier.
Between 12 and 2 o'clock he gees down
te the basement te get his lunch. The
luncheon brings together congenial spir
its. Gossip, anecdete nnd badinage are
plentiful ever the ale and oysters, ncre
and there n pair of congressional dromies
may be seen together. Some of these
geed friends lunch together every day of
their lives. Every day sevcral lunch par
ties are formed upstairs, and when one
of these coteries gathers about a table
and sauce their feed with wit nnd story
the cares of statesmanship and some
times even dignity itself nre forgotten.
The sons of War Governer Andrew, of
Massachusetts, nnd of Randelph Tucker,
of Virgiuia, may often be seen lunching
together, ns may any number of south
ern "brigadiers" and ex-generals of the
Federal army. t"
As likely in net McKinley, the apostle
of the protect ie tariff, will be seen shar
ing a bettle of ale with Reger Q. Mills.
One armed O.ites, of Alabama, chief of
the anti-election law forces, is hobnob
bing with Mr. Ledge, champion of the
proposed legislation. Speaker Reed is at
table, ami in merry cenverse with two
or three of the Democrats who but lately
were denouncing him a3 a despot and
usurper. The lunch rooms of the Capitel
net only satisfy the cravings of nature,
bnt 6eftcn many of the asperities of pub
lic life, cement friendships, avert enmi
ties. Over there in the corner, blending
ice cream nnd strawberries with their
conversation, Are two men who were up
stalrstwenty minutes ngo.metapherically
and rhetorically teariug each ether te
pieces.
"De yen think they will fight a duel?'
asked n stronger in the heuse gallery the
ether day, when Congressmen Rogers
and Kelley were savagely attacking each
ether in debate.
"Ne," replied a veteran observer, "they
will probably go down stairs and split
amaU bottle."
Set sv
Modestly. Oysters en tha shell or roast
ed are prime favorites. Bread and milk
is another popular dish. Fenr famous
bread and milk caters are rising Jim
Merse, of Massachusetts; Cogswell, of
the same state; Barnes, the Georgia,
heaTy weight; Farmer Fnnsten, rf Kan
sax. Half-and-half, a mixture of cream
and milk, is often called for, and occa
sionally a dish of pure cream; bnt the
proprietor of the restaurant points out
te us the interesting fact that it is always
the city and never the rural member
who wants cream.
The man from the form has been edu
cated in a school of domestic economy
which teaches that eating cream is waste
fulness, since cream makes butter, and
butter can be sold, and milk riU take
the place of cream, why net eat milk?
Therefore milk it is for the farm boy
or farm man milk in Ida coffee, milk
en his fruit, milk with hi oatmeal or
rice. An old philosopher of my ac
quaintance says if thia drinking of milk
in the country and consumption of cream
in the cities gees en for ahundredortwe

will beceme se superior te these of the
country in brawn and brain that the lat
ter will be in danger of falling into serf
dom. This is an extreme view.
Pie is also a prime favorite with hun
gry statesmen. It is mere than a luxury
it is a staple. If the supply of pie in
the Capitel restaurants were te be sud
denly cut off, I fancy the shock te con
gressional nerves would threw the wheels
of legislation out of gear. Te see pie
eating in its highest state of development
ene does net need te go down stairs te
the dining room. In certain little al
coves and shadowy nooks of the main
corridor of the old Capitel nooks whose
echoes are of the days of Webster, Clay,
Calhoun and Jehn Quincy Adams is the
art of pie biting practiced te perfection.
Here ceme great statesmen te eat pie
and doughnuts and drink milk, all served
by a Belemn old woman who has been in
the very spot and self saine pie business
for a quarter of a century. At this rude
counter ene may see such men as Speaker
Reed, Judge Pay son, Cabet Ledgo, R. R.
Hitt, Reswell P. Flower, Julius Ctesar
Burrows, McKinley, Judge Reed of
Iowa, "Billy" Masen, Frank Lawlcr, ox ex
Speaker Carlisle, W. D. Bynum, Ben
Butterworth and Tem Bayue standing
side by side and deveuring pie and milk
with railroad station eating celerity and
unconventionality.
There nre seme secrets about the man
ner in which statesmen eat. Fer in
stance, in the heuse of representatives
are a half dozen or mero men who are
never seen in the restaurant nor at the
old woman's pie counter. If you want
te knew hew these men lunch you must
go down into their committee rooms,
where, in a secluded corner, they may
be found opening n snug little basket put
up at home by the hands of their geed
wives. These are men who find it almost
impossible te live en their congressional
salaries, and who are forced te econo
mize in any way they can.

Special CorrespeDdence.) v I
Omaha, May 8. The sheeting and
hunting trips of President Harrlse
never extend beyond ene week. Presi
dent Cleveland spent an entire month
during his tenn of ofilce fishing among
the lakes of the Adirondacks. President
Arthur took the most elaborate sporting
vacation, speuding nearly six wejks in
the heart of the Recky mountains, hun
dreds of miles from all civilization, in
the early wilderness of the picturesque
Yellowsteno park. The year was 1883,
The wonderful land of the great geysers
was net as accessible as it is new, for
the railway did net run te the mammoth
het springs as it does today. It was
midsummer, but the peaks of the Recky
mountains were topped with snow.
The president of the United States,
with Gen. Phil Sheridan, Secretary of
War Lincoln, Surrogate Rollins, of New
Yerk, and Schuyler Cresby, governor of
Mentana, and a body guard of United
States regulars, had geno te the wilder
ness for a summer outing. They had en
tered the country from Cheyenne en the
Union Pacific, and had journeyed at the
rate of about fifty miles a day. A group
of newspaper men had entered the park
from the Northern Pacific, coming
through Mentana and Idaho.
One morning a guide came upon our
camp and reported the president but
thirty miles away. Three of our party,
Jehn La Sage, of The Londen Telegraph;
E. G. Dunncll, of The New Yerk Times,
nnd myself, mounted our horses and
away we dashed. That night we came
'upon the distinguished group. Mr.
'Arthur had net seen a human face ether
than his few compiniens for a month.
Yeu may be sure that he gave us cordial
welcome. At once we were his guests.
A camp fire was built and we lay en the
ground around it. A little hand sepa
rated from the outeido world by the
great Reckies; chief among them the
president of sixty millions of jicople, the
simplest and quietest of the little ceterie,
I thiuk I see him new, this roughly
dressed, manly gentleman, lying en his
blanket in his course fiannel shirt, gaz

and yet the government at Washington
moved placidly.
I shall never forget that night, nor the
courtesy which followed, when Gen.
Sheridan sent nn orderly te our tent
early in the morning and offered us the
services of a guide nnd a couple of sol
diers te escort us ever Mount Washburn,
the highest possable peak of the range.

Espionage of the IrUU Police.
New Yerk, May 8. There nre in,000
policemen in Ireland today one officer
te 340 persons, largely little children and
men and women of advanced years.
These policemen are the sons of Irish
farmers and they nre cordially bated by
the people. Te such a degree is this
hatred carried that recently the police in
Tippentry were unable te buy feed nnd
were forced te open up a depot of sup
plies. The close espionage te which
the Irishmen are subjected is exasperat
ing te the last degree. Sometimes, how
ever, the "bebbice" are outwitted, te the
intense delight of Pat. Net long since a
certain blacksmith of Quccnstewn, who
is locally known ns Dr. O'Toelo, was
visited by a Mr. Fenl, of Chicago.
It appears that when Ferd lauded en
Irish soil a satchel which he carried
attracted the attention of the police.
They suspected that it contained dyna
mite or firearms. O'Toelo nnd Ferd
started te visit the rock of Coshel, and a
detective was sent along in the railway
carriage te watch the satchel. When
the party arrived at the railway station
nearest the rock of Cashcl they get into
a "jlngle" te continue the journey. The
"bobby" get in, tee. They had ridden
for sevcral miles, the officer's eyes being
fastened upon the satchel nil the time,
and O'Toelo nnd Ferd enlivening the
way with songs nnd Innghtcr, when the
patience of the detective became ex
hausted and he said:
"Yez'll net go another fnt e' the way
'til I see fwhnl's in that bagl"
"G'eutl" exclaimed O'Toelo; "d'ye
take us fur thaves, ye blnggnrd? Faix, if
I liad me way the 13,000 e' ye peelers 'ud
be sunk in the say whin I'd scnttle Ire
land I But devil take yer impidunce; Ink
at the bag!"
The officer took the satchel with n leek
of greedy expectation. He fumbled with
the lock and when the bag fell open he
found a bundle of paper cell.ivs nnd an
empty whisky flask! E. J. i

well padded with adiiose tissne; with a
Hchelarly steep, of the complexion called

When I first saw Joel Chandler Harris
I was net impressed with his personality.
But the feeling of disappointment van

A STATE WITHOUT A CENT.
Prentice Mulford Writes of the Kxpan Kxpan
tve Methods of Trade In California.
Sjiecial Correspondence J
San Francisce, May 3. California
Btlll refuses te take coppers. They turn
up their noses at cents. Nothing gees
under a nickel. When incidentally and
accidentally I have offered here seme
pennies brought from the east I have felt
humiliated at the lefty air which accom
panied their rejection. It said ns plainly
as werds: "Here is a narrow, stingy,
picayunish easterner, fresh from the con
strained, ene herse pastures of Connecti
cut, and net at all up te our bread , breezy,
expansive way of doing business."
The Callfernians, yen knew, don't
bother with that 6ert of change," was
the remark made at ene of these re
fusals. "Hew long have yen been in Califor
nia?" I asked.
"Eight years."
I meditated. I came te this state in
1850 and remained until 1870. I saw
the state in her flush days. Here was a
man eight years in California looking
down nt me from his lefty perch of cx cx
perience. "He a Califernianl" Raid
Scorn. "Yes, a California!!," said Com
mon Sense "as geed ns you are. What
though you were out here in the 'early
days' nnd saw it nil? Is it any credit te
you? Are you any better for it than he
is? Only yeu're angry because he won't
tnke yeu're contemptible little coppers."
Se I carried at l.tt my coppers te the
postefflco nnd humbly exchanged them
for two cent stamps, and felt somewhat
relieved because the general go eminent
was net abeve taking its own money in
California.
But California today wants money as
much as Connecticut. California with
nil her immense resources is in some re
spects poorer than Connecticut. Cali
fornia prices for previsions, clothing, etc.,
are as low as eastern prices. California
today is net the California of 1853, when

ilnnk, nnd foolishly imagining that be-
cauhe the place had given him a few
thousands in geld it was inexhaustible.
California is a land of wonderful jKHsi.
bilities and immense resources. She
hheulil le the richest state in the Union.
She will Imi in time, hut she needs the
cent in her daily currency as much as
does the opulent city of New Yerk.
Yeu may lieie in thocenrso of a day
want half a dozen small items, which in
the east can be taught for a cent or two.
When here you f-hevel out your nickel
ever' time; you find it a great factor in
melting away your daily pocket allow
ance. Result, it checks trade. People
de net buy as they de in eastern cities.
If you want u sheet of paper or n sin sin
gle envelope you must plank down your
flve cents for it. If you buy matches you
must buy five cenU' worth und pack a
cord atant with you. Yeu must buy
five cents' worth of candy or none at all.
The cent stick of candy, the cent or two
cent apple, the cent enke, tart or roll nt
the- baker', the cent or two cent or three
cent anything are here impossibilities.
I notice that in the world's great cen
ters of commerce like Londen, Paris and
New Yerk de you find the smallest bub bub
divisiens of circulating currency.
New, ns te seme results. In New
Yerk city the Italian's fruit stand is
seen en almost every ether block. Iu
San FrancUce it is hardly seen at all.
A4 Calif ernia it the fruit puradjet of
tne United "mates. The Italian's retail
fruit business in New Yerk is, in the ag
gregate, an immense trade. Many is
the ten sold daily from these corner
stands.' It depends mainly en the one,
two nnd three cent sales; knock the
penny out and the business would be
ruined. Therefore is net the despised
copper in the hands of boys and girls at
well as grown up peeple a means of put
tint! and keeping in circulation a great
deal of cash everyday? If I cih buy
twenty small articles with $1 instead of
flO, for the reason that I can by means
of n small currency cut that dollar up
into twenty pieces instead of ten, is net
that dollar when capable of such
division worth mere te me? Yen are
charged here fifteen cents nt seme houses
for a' glass of lecr if you are unwise
enough te lay down a quarter of a dol
lar. That in at the rate of a "bit" a
drink. A "bit" is either ten or fifteen
cents. A "long bit" is fifteen cents. A
"short bit" is ten cents. Peeple who put
en style here and de the magnificent and
wish te stand well in the estimation of
the bar keeper seldom proffer a "short
bit" for a drink. Ne. They lay down
their qnartcr every tlme and the bar
keeper calmly shoves ten cents back,
which the customer pockets, and his
reputation is intact In this way a
princely man can pay sixty cents for fenr
glasses of lager ii he doesn't de seme
short bit business.
The daily Vijicr, here is five cents. As
n result, yen see in the street car and
ferry beat nothing te compare with the
newspaper reading by the masses while
in transit from shop or store te their
homes as in New Yerk, where- every
body's nese is buried in a paper when
going from or returning te their homes,
which they buy for ene and two cents.
The entire sentiment en which this
royal contempt for small cdrrency is
based always was n humbug. The miner
of the flush times efter living a few
years where a dime was the lowest coin
in circulation raked out of the soil a
few thousand dollars. He went with it
te liis eastern home, turned up his nese
' nt. cepjicrs, spent his money, came beck
for mere, in most cases never get it, and
lived en liread, beans and bacon in a
:abin which his eastern friends wouldn't
take as n hen coop. He was the man
abeve coppers.
It seems te me n bit of ridiculous old
"10" pride and usage, ns ridiculous as a
French deer key, which must weigh
neatly half a pound because all ancient
deer keys weighed near half a pound.
Or the English railway persistency in re
fusing te check baggage and tumbling it

THE MAKING OF ILLUSTRATIONS."
An Art Thitt 'Will Presper Only by (he
Use of Proper Methods.
The history of engraving has net been
a record of continuous and uninterrupted
progress. Thcre liave been poriedoof ad
vancement and periods of reaction erea
when pictures outranked print in popu
lar esteem, and ether crae when the peo pee pee
peo would have noneof them. Fer the
backward strides as well as the ones for
ward the engravera were thomsclvea
chiefly responsible. When they did geed
work they were held in respect, and the
market for their efforts was only limited
by their capability of production.
GLADSTONE, ZINO TnOCESS.

Naturally, the demand brought sup
ply, but it brought also evil and disas
ter. Seeing the profitable field spread
out before them for occupancy, a herde
of pretenders rushed in te uliare the
emoluments of trained artists and con
scientious workers. As a result the
print shops nnd bookstalls speedily filled
up with specimens of engraving net only
mediocre but absolutely atrocious; the
buyers closed their purses, the interest
in illustrations languished, and it took a
generation or two of patient, almost un
recognized, toil te socure n new standard
of excellence, nud a fresh recognition
from the public.
This has taen, in large measure, the
recurrent history of engraving since the
first woodcut left the artist's hands
early in the Fifteenth century, and it
seems fair and timely te inquire whether
or net nnetlier of the periodical crises is
new impending. Although the demand
for illustrations has reached larger lire liro liro
portiens than ever tafore known, it dees
net seem that the old time rollapse is te
fellow, for the reason that the call for
pictures is legitimate nnd is meeting
witli a legitimate response. If harm is
te ensue at all, it will ta because of the
unwlse use of methods te accomplish
ends. A process that id an admirabla
medium for producing maps, diagrams,
charts, architectural designs and the
like, lfiay net be of the slightest valne
in the preixr presentation of a portrait,
and, of course, ought te ta used only
within the limits of actual availability.
