Wp were ililitiinli' friends, uml niif i;fli'r muni I told liim that I would like to (jet nt tlif bottom of the i stniti'i inetit be tween Mr. I'.laitie ami himself. I told Mr. C'otikliiiK that it wemed t mo itb nurd that a man who had been a lawyer all bis life, uml a public man. fdmuld have taken ofTeiisoat Mr. ISliiiiin's pptfch cnllinfr him a turkey gobbler, etc. It was BometliitiK I could not comprehend. Mr. Conkliii repliud: 'It is just M nb curd to mo to take it Unit way ns it is to you. You know I have practiced law nil my life. If lawyers permitted tho animosities of public trials to warp their sensibilities, we would be in a light with all the world. The trne cause of the quarrel between Mr. Blaine and myself is thnt Mr. Ulaino took an unfair advan tage of me in the house of representa tives to reflect upon my persona! integ rity.' 'In tlio discussion growing out of the discontinuing of tho office of provost marshal general Mr. Ulaino rose to a question of personal privilege. Mr. Colliding told mo that be did not pay inut li attention to Mr. lllaine's speech until lie heard his name mentioned. Then, after listening, he found Ulaino was making a. personal assault, foreign to the matter of personal privilege and alien to the subject under discussion. Coukling said he listened, and the more lie listened the more he was amazed, and then he became angry. Coukling said that he so lost control of himself under the impulse of the moment that he went to his friend, Thud Stevens, and said: ' "Mr. Ktovens. you have heard what Mr. Ulaino him just said. What shall 1 do? The question of ergonal privilego Mr. lilaino used was a personal attack npon my integrity. He has character ized mo as a man who has accepted em ployment from the government while 1 was a member of congress, and while in that employment had received fees paid to mo by Secretary Stanton, and that the fees embraced pay for services which had been illegally rendered by me to the government of the United States in do ing soino work in the western purtof tho state. This work included the investi gation of certain bounty frauds which had taken place in Khuirn, mid tho sec retary cumo to mo and employed me to get at tho root of the trouble, I devoted a great deal of time til tho business, and tho upshot was that tho government re covered, through my efforts, many thou sands of dollars. Ujion my return to Washington Secretary Stanton sent for me and offered $10,000 iu payment for my services, which I refused to accept. 1 said to him ut that time that if 1 was to receive anything I preferred to ar-' range tho price myself, and ut all events 1 would not accept such a sum. " "l'ending tho discussion between Sec retary Stanton and myself I went to Utica and talked over the matter with Oovernor Seymour and Judge Denio, chief judgn of the court of npiieals, both Democrats. I told thorn that I did not want to take a step which could be used Bguwst me in any way. I did not want to make a show of purity that would be ridiculous, and I did not care about ac cepting a foe that might be questioned. On njy return to Washington the check of Secretary Stauton was reduced to 3,600. Even then I was timid about ac cepting it, but Stanton said: "By God! 1 know what services are worth. I have been a lawyer all my life, and this money yon have got to take." I did take the money. 1 felt that I had earned it, and when Mr. Blaine referred to this in the bouse I felt that he had taken a mean ad Vantage, and 1 determined never to speak to him again.' "Mr. Conkling told me," continued Mr. Gebhard, "that Mr. Stevens said to him, Til attend to this for yon, Mr. Conkling, and will call for a committee of Inquiry." "A committee was appointed for the purpose of investigating and reporting, and when became evident that the re port of tl committee would entirely exonerate . .'. Conkling from the alleged irregularit ee, then it was that he recog nized the fine hand of Mr. Blaine or bis friends in the successful attempt to frus trate the purposes for which the com mittee waa appointed. "Mr. Conkling told me that he never poko to Mr. Ulaino from thnt lime: thnt ill the cbnrges thnt Ulnino had brought gainst him were groundless. 'That i Hit eanso f,r my feeling against Mr. Ulaiiio.' said Mr. Conkling. 'and 1 shall never speak to the man ngnin or recog nizo him till he, in ns public a placo in tho house of representatives, wake tin Hpulogy for the assault ho made upon Uio nt that, time.' Several tittempls were mail" torecon ile Mr. Colliding and Mr. Blaine, but Mr. Conkling nlwnys said: "When Mr. Ulaino gets tip in congress and taken back this charge, then I will bo prepared lo meet him, and until ho docs it thero I will never speak to him again.' Subse quently, during the Blaine campnign of 1HHI, Conkling told mo: ! hnve received n invitation to a dinner at which Mr. Blaine is to be present. I wonder what the getters up of this dinner tnke me for. I nm a Hepublicnn, and I bel eve in tho success of my pnrty, but there is one tning I will never do, I will never meet Mr. Blame until he makes an apology ns public ns his charges.' "New York Sun.

It was in awe of its master, however, mid cowetl down every time he cracked his whip, lie made it dosevernl tricks with a retriever dog, which did not seem to like the task very well "Come and kiss Miss fussy," said tho man. ami the dog went np to it, laid a paw upon its neck and licked its face. The uiaster then put a piece of meat on her nose and told the dog to fetch it awny "He doesn't care for this part," was his comment. 'She has hud him by the throat once or twice .Inst look at her Iron paws? One blow would lay yon dead as mutton. What, yon brute, you would, would you!" Miss Pussy had tried to gnaw his boot and needed to be lushed off. "Do you ever take her out'r' "Oh. yes, she goes walking with me in the mountains sometimes.

Tho sheep farmer, it seems, finds thnt bo can deliver his sheep, with a fair profit, for 2 pence u pound at the nearest port or freezing point. The killing und freezing process is undertaken chiefly by companies, which have established freez ing stations ut various convenient points along the coast, und which ship the car casses, consigned to agents in Loudon or elsewhere. One of the sights of the day at the Alliert docks is the arrival of one of tho New Zealand Shipping company's fine steamers, perhaps tho Tonguriro or the Rimutaka, or some other of the fleet with the sonorous Maori mimes, and to see the subsequent discharge of some 27,000 carcasses, out h neatly wrapped in its winding sheet of white calico.

Electricity generated for heating or for any other purpose must bo prodnced at the cost of the expenditure of some other form of energy, such as the burn ing of eoal or the force of falling water. As the latter form of power is hardly available for use in New York, it fol lows that if electric heating is to become a commercial phase of lifo in that city. current will lo supplied to consumers from central stations in which coal is burned under tho boilers, precisely siini lar to existing plants for tho supply of light nnd power. The conversion and transmission of heat by this process is not economic!! I, iiml current from coal burning stations in sufficient quantities for heating could only bo used by the wealthy, to whom its convenience and cleanliness wonld commend Itself. It is apparent, however, that the "coal barons" would have nearly ns much to say about the supply of fuel to such sta tions as to individual consumers at pres ent, although it is probable that tho mere cost of coal and labor would be proportionately reduced by tho nso of cheaper grades of fuel and by central ization. Doubtless electrio heating has a great future, but at present it seems to be principally available in localities where water power can be utilized in the prime movers. Chicago Western Electrician.

It is a char ter power. Its control rests ultimately in the state. In acts of incorporation this power is universally conferred upon the boards of directors the highest seat of corporate authority. It should have been treated with seriousness and aa rep resenting the most important duty of the several boards. But instead of this our country has been treated to a camival of rates rates rates. Hundreds of thou sands of tariffs have been filed in Wash ington during the last five years.

Still we hardly liko to advise a hostess to eject from her house overy man whose waistcoat is not in perfect harmony with bis invitation. It is not to be expected, however, that bis welcome will bo as worm as if his waistcoat were what it ought to be.
