There's only a man with his nose aglow: with pick and shovel and broom, lip chases the slabs of Ice and snow Where the roses used to bloom. Washington Star.

Tribune Bureau, 616 Fourteenth street, N. W., Washington. Jan. 12. It Is now believed that President Cleve land Is not half so anxious to tackle Kng- land as he Is Turkey. It is said he is getting ready to spring another surprise in the wav or a declaration or war upon the unspeakable Turk for the outrages he has been perpetrating on Christians in Armenia. The whole civilised and Chris tlan world would back the nresldent it he notified Turkey to either let up on the atrocities in Armenia or take a licking from the United States. What has given rise to this belief is that Secretary Herbert ha prepared a bill asking congress to give the president authority, in tne event or an emergency, to call upon the naval militia of the sev eral states or upon others to man United States vessels that might be put into commission; also to charter vessels for -trooii shiDS. The bill has caused more than ordinary speculation and comment In puoilo cir. lies. The measure was received by 8en- ator Cameron,' who promptly Introduced It and had It referred to tho committee on naval affairs of the senate. In the event of President Cleveland is suing such a declaration to Turkey It would muke him tho most popular man in the United States, and nothing short or a fatal sunstroke would Drevent him from being renominated and re-elected if he has aspirations In that direction, it Is not believed, however, that he is a candi date for a third term, and that if he does declare war on Turkey it will be through patriotic motives. Carleton G. Palmer and Jeremiah W. Browning, attorneys of Scranton, have been admitted to practice before the Interior department. The Salzer Vogt company of Louisville, K, had been awarded the contract for furnishing the federal building at Scran ton with an electric passenger elevator. The bid of the successful company was .2,540. Congressman Adams, of Philadelphia, ex-mlulster to Rraxll and a member of the house foreign affairs committee, Is in receipt of a letter from a friend who lives In Spain, In which he says that pre vious to the time the Cubans took up arms against their mother country the Spanish government was on the verge or making concessions to the inhabitants of that islund. This gentleman states that Spuln Intended to allow Cuba local gov ernment, free ports of entry and many other things for which It Is now lighting. t inier the present state or affairs, he says, Spain cannot afford to grant these proposed concessions, anu win tenner whip Cuba into submission or take a lick ing herself. .Mr. Adams Is also responsible for the statement that the American properly owners in Cuba are responsible for this government not recognizing the Cubans as belligerents. It Is said that property to tne amount or a,ouo,ouo is owned ty Americans living in Cuba. They fear that If the Cubans should win in their fight for liberty their property would de preciate In value. Hence the interest they are taking in keeping the United Stutes from recognizing the rebels. fCongressmaiv-at-Large Oalusha A. Glow Is said to have a memory for names and faces equal to that of the late James G. Blaine. While walking through one of the corridors of the capitol the other day Air. Orow ran across a colored man who was an attache or the house or repre sentatives when he was speaker. "Hello, Dorsey!" said Mr. Grow. "How do you do. sir," replied the col ored iniin, somewhat embarrassed, for he railed to recognise the man who ad dressed him. Why. old fellow, don t you know me? I know you. Don't you remember when 1 was speaker of the house and you were employed in the cloak room?" continued Mr. urow. The colored man, whose name Is Dor sey, admitted that he was at one time, thlrtv-nve years ago. employed in the cloak room of the house, but that he had forgotten what Mr. Urow, then speaker of the house, looked like. "Well, replied the ex-speaker, "you see him now." Mr. Urow and Mr. Dorsey chatted over old times for awhile and then parted. Mr. Dorsey Is a candidate for the house restaurant, and Mr. Urow Is now one of his strongest tbackers. President Cleveland's letter to Senator Caffrey on the bond issue Is regarded here as evidence of the administration's state of mind on the much-mixed finan cial question. The president is said to be very mucn worried over tne constant nagging at him of certain newspapers especially the New York world, wmcn has undertaken the task of raising money to keen ud the gold reserve without nrst consulting the president. Secretary Car lisle or congress. The World s insmua Hons that President Cleveland Is play Ing Into the hands of the Belmont-Morgan syndicate Is being generally condemned by ootn Democrats and jfepuoncana. 'ine president may be guilty or a good many things, but it is downright injustice to charge the chief executive of the United States with corruption. II II II The autobiography of Hoke Smith, sec relarv of the Interior, as published in 'lie Congressional Directory, says that "after belna admitted to the bar. he devoted him self to the study of law." There must be queer court in tne "t orncrackar state to admit a man to practlve Jaw be fore he had became familiar with Black- stone. A story is told in connection with Smith's appointment as secretary of the Interior that when his name was suggest ed to the president for a cabinet .port folio ny uan umont Mr. Cleveland ueked who he was. Lamont replied that he was a lawyer down in Georgia who hud made a 130.000 fee In one case. "Well, replied the president, "any law yer who can make that much money out or one case is good enough fo ra member of my cabinet." And Hoke Smith, who was a most dying to Become a member of tho president s omciai family, was sent for and onereu tne secretaryship or tne interior, which he promptly accepted. II President Cleveland's favorite advisor Is Secretary Carlisle. It is said the pres ident once told a friend that he consid ered Carlisle the brainiest man In the United states. President Cleveland Is said to he anxious to have Secretary arllsle succeed him as occupant of the rhite house. If the Democrats do not nominate a man about Mr. Carlisle's size they cannot expect to carry the solid south. Carlisle Is the most popular man in the cabinet. He is on good terms with ill factions of his party, and If a candi date for the presidency would come nearer polling a full party vote than any man the Democrats ran nominate. While making up your presidential slate don't omit Carlisle's name. In "His Excellency" Comic Onera com pany, which played to big business In this city last week. Is Miss Nancy Mcin tosh, a young society lady of Plttsbura. During her stay here she received much attention from fashionable society. Sen ator and Mrs. Brlce gave a large recep tion in ner nonor uunng ine week, at which many of the elite of Washington society were present. The theater boxes were well filled at each performance with friends and admirers. Miss Mcln tostli has Just returned from Europe, where she studied under the leading ar tists of the old world. sue is a sister of Burr Mcintosh, a prominent member of Crane s company. Charles S. Hamlin, of Great Bend. Sus quehanna county, has been granted an riginai pension. If the rules of" t'he'1 house had been amended as proposed by Mr. DeArmond. of Missouri, to deduct the salaries of members when absent, unless absence was due to sickness. Representative Scranton would scarcely have enough left at the end of the session to buy a toy balloon. W. R. B. COMMENT OF THE PRESS. Carelessness and Mlae Accidents. Philadelphia Times: "The annual report of -the mine inspectors of Pennsylvania again rails attention to what has been painfully impressed upon the public mind by numerous fatal mine accidents In the past, the fact that the best and most care fully considered laws for the protection and safety of the miners can easily be ren dered of no effect by the carelessness of the miners themselves. Every session of the legislature for the last twenty years has had xma subject under consideration with the net result that carefully drawn laws covering almost every conceivable detail of the process of mining have been enacted and are enforced by Inspectors ap pointed because of their practical and technical Knowledge or tne Business. In spite of laws and competent inspectors, however, fatal mine accidents are of com mon occurrence. Why? Because no code of mine laws and no board of Inspectors, however faithful and competent, can com. pel careless miners to obey and observe the necessary rules and precautions to Insure safety. Mine roofs will fall If not suffi ciently propped and mine gas will explode If It comes In contact with a naked lamp. Explosive gas Is as common to most coal fields as coal Itself and all ml no havi roofs to be propped or otherwise support, ed. The aim of the minina laws Is u compel the use of adequate supports, the proper urainage and ventilation or me mines and careful Inspection of every cnamoer ana passage ror gas before nun era with open lamps are allowed to en ter. If these requirements were faith fully fulfilled mine explosions would be rare as the law intends them to be. Why do the mining Paw fall? Because miners, in their eagerness to eat to work, rush headlong into gas-filled driveways and chambers In advance of the inspectors: be cause those charged with the duty of placing the proper supports do their work careiessiy ana fn violation or all sensi ble rules; In short, because miners act fie quently as though they considered the ex Istence of protective laws on the subject all the protection they reauire. The re. quirements of mine laws, bo they ever so tirneiy, will not enrorce thmselves. Anothor Silly Verdict. Altoona Gasette: "It seems that Blair county is not to be nermitled to lav ex elusive claim to the distinction of having produced Juries capable of. declaring a man innocent and then ordering him to pay the cost of prosecution. A case of the kind occurred In the court of Lack awanna county Thursday. The evidence was strong against the defendant, and the charge of the court was practically a Instruction for the Jury to return a verdict or gulHy. But the Jury did no such thing. It declared the man Innocent. Then, as if endeavoring to make reparation for so nuicuious a nnding. It ordered the 'inno cent' man to pay half the costs. Judge Savidge was so Incensed over the farce that he at once delivered a scathing ar raignment of the action of the Jury, inti mating that such verdicts could not be the result of honest Intent. 'Not guilty, but pay the costs,' Is not an honest verdict and no sort of reasoning can make It ap pear so. It Is, In effect, 'Not guilty, but guilty.' it is a compromise, at once ab surd and disgraceful. It tends to drag justice into disrepute among nonest men who have been taught to believe that guilt and innocence cannot be quail- lieu. Elestion Crimes and Contests. Philadelphia Inquirer: "The Slttser Dunham Judicial contest In the Wvom Ing and Sullivan district cost $10,000. The counties are sparse v Inhabited and as th costs have been Impartially divided be tween the two counties, it Is going to cost every voter aoout E- to pay the inns. Is proposed that hereafter the costs In such contests be placed upon the petition era. No doubt such a plan would out ai end to foolish contests- like those in the Wyoming and the Indiana districts, but It would also make it difficult to correct a genuine case of election fraud resulting In the Issuing of an election certificate to a candidate who had in reality been de feated. The Inquirer is disposed to believe imii wnen men are disposed to ouy men sales ana purchases will find holes In til most any law that ran be framed. The real remedy for that kind of thing Is to oe applied, not from Harrlsburs. but In the community and the home. If crooked con duct were not winked at when it is succes ful there would not be so much of it to punish when it is unsuccessful." -, A Reaurring Disgrace. Philadelphia Press: "Judge Savidge, of Northumberland county, recently ex pressed dissatisfaction with the verdict of a Jury in a criminal action which de clared tne defendant not sulltv. but or dered that he pay a part of the costs. is no surprise that the Judge should do this. The astonishing tblng Is that such verdict are not always and In all parts of the state denounced by the Judge and the newspapers until such results are made impossible. It would be difficult to imag ine anything more Inconsistent or In decent than to compel a person to pay the costs of prosecuting him on charges of wnicn ne is proven to be innocent, nut this disgraceful Ithlng is done almos every uay in Pennsylvania. THE LEGEND OF THE DIPPER There Is a pretty story which tells how the seven stars came to form the dipper. Once In a country far away the people were dying of thirst. There had been no rain for months. The rivers and springs and brooks had all dried up. The plants and flowers had withered and died. The birds were so hoarse they could not sing. The whole land was sad and mournful. One night after tne stars had come out, a little girl with a tin dipper In her hand crept quietly out of a house and went into a wood near by. Kneeling down under a tree, she folded her hands and prayed that uod would send rain. If It were only enough to fill her little dipper. She prayed so long- that at last she fell asleep. When she awoke she was over joyed to find her dipper full of clear, cool water. Remembering that her dear motner was ill and dying of thirst, she did not even watt to moisten her parched lips, out taking up her dipper she hur rlel home. In her haste she stumbled and alas! dropped her precious rup. just men sne reit something move in the grass beside her. It was a little dog, who, like herself, had almost fainted for want of water. She lifted her dipper, and what was her sur prise to rind that not a drop had been Bpllled. Pouring out a few drons on her hand, she held It out for the dog to lick. He did so and seemed much re vived, but as she poured out the water the tin dipper had changed to one of beautiful silver. Reaching home quick ly as possible, she handed the water to ine servant to give to her mother. "un, said ner mother, "I will not live anyhow. You are younger and stronger than I." As she gave the servant the dipper It changed Into gold. The servant was Just about to give earn person in the house a spoonful of the precious water wnen she saw a stranger at the door. He looked sad and weary and she handed him the dipper of water. He took it, saying: "Blessed Is he that gives a cun of cold water In my name." A radiance shone all about him and Immediately the golden dipper became studded with seven sparkling diamonds. Then it burst forth into a fountain which supplied the thirsty land with water. The seven diamonds rose high er and higher until they reached the sky, and there they, changed Into bright stars, forming the "Great Dip per," telling the story of an unselfish act. Chicago Times-Herald. - A STORY OF BELASCO. Tears ago, when Mrs. James Brown Potter was being Initiated into the mysteries of amateur theatricals, Re lasco was her roach. Edward eT'les Coward, the amateur actor, who Is now the dramatic editor of the New York world, was ner leading man. They ap peared In several light comedies to- gether for the benefit of charities, and then Mrs. Potter's ambition, which was given to vaulting, even In those days. Inspired her with a desire to play Ju liet Belasco told her that he thought she could play It. and then he added, turning to the leading actor: "But I draw tne line at you. Coward. You couldn't play Romeo to save your life. You're not built that way." Coward waxed Indignant. Mrs. Potter sympathetic, but Belasco stood to his guns. Finally, the Idea was abandoned, even before It came to a dress rehear sal. That was some eleven years ago. Last month, when Belasco's play, "The Heart of Maryland," was produced at the Herald Square. Mr. Coward was In front to write the World's criticism. No newspaper in town was more emphatic In its praise of Belasco's work. The next day Belasco happened to meet Coward on Broadway. He gripped him oy tne nana, ana, with tears in his eyes, he exclaimed: That was the finest notice I ever nad in my life." Then he added, with a alv little twinkle In his eye: "I say. Coward, I ought never to have said that you couldn't play Romeo." EVCIIERING THE CONFESSOR. A certain laxzarone once came to con fess himself to a missionary priest who was confined to his bed with the gout, with the Intention of stealing a pair of new shoes, which he had seen under the good father's bed. The priest having called htm up to the bed, as he could not rise, the man knelt down and while reciting the Conflteor. got hold of the shoes, and put them into the wallet which he bad under his cloak. Having finished the Conflteor, the first and last sin which be confessed was that of hav ing stolen a pair of sluies. The confessor replied. "Ah! my son, you ought to restore them." The penitent replied: "Father, do you want mem t "No," said the priest: "no, my son, But they ought to be restored to the rightful owner; otherwise, 1 cannot give you absolution." "But, father." replied the man, "the owner says he does not want them. What, then, shall I do?" The confessor answered: "Since that Is so keep them for yourself;" and giv ing him absolution, he dismissed him, and the penitent carried oft the shoes. A WORD. m WANTS OP ALL KINDS COST THAT MUCH.
