WASHINGTON LETTER.
Washington, D. C., Sept. 29.
Senators Voorhees, Gorman anil Pal
mer, at different times this week took
occassion to defend President Cleveland
from the newspaper charge, which Sena
tor Stewart mistakenly dignified by
reading in the senate, of attempting by
the use of patronage to control the
legislative branch of the government.
Of course everybody in Washington
knows as well as these three senators do
that President Cleveland needs no
defense, but there may lie people else
where who are liable to be misled by
constant reiteration of tlie charge.
When Senator Palmer told Senator
Stewart that if he would name one sena
tor who had been controlled by the
president through patronage he would
gladly join him in getting a resolution
passed providing for an investigation,
Senator Stewart did not name a senator.
Why? Simply because lie knew of
none. Senator Gorman's few remarks
on the subject covered the case fully,
lie said: "I am not the mouthpiece of
the president. His patronage I know
nothing of or care nothing for. I
neither have it nor want it. No presi
dent has ever been so careful to avoid
the appearance of distributing patronage
for his own ends. lie has scarcely done
his party justice."
Everybody has beard of that fre
quently mentioned article—"senatorial
courtesy"—, but with all due respect to
the eminent and dignified gentlemen
who compose the United States Senate
it must be said that "senatorial dis
courtesy" more truly applies to the
numerous "tifs" between senators which
have been such a feature of the debate
this week. Space forbids their enumera
tion, but one specimen will give a general
idea of all of them. Senator Wolcott
referred to Senators Gorman and Aid
rich as steerers of the senators who favor
the Voorlieess repeal bill, and told of
their having decided to begin next week
holding twelve-hour sessions of the
senate. Senator Gorman in reply said:
"This is the first time that I have ever
known a senator or his agents to listen
at the committee room doors to tell the
senate of the private conferences of I
senators on any subject whatever."
The ultimate fate of the Voorhees bill
is Btill very much in doubt. Cloture is
a two-edged weapon, and although its
present adoption would be of great bene
fit to the Democratic party it is not prob
able that Senator Piatt's resolution will
even be reported back from the commit
tee on rules, to which it was referred,
and without cloture there is small prob
ability that the bill will ever be voted
upon without the consent of its oppo
nents. Can that consent be obtained?
That is a question that only the future
can answer, but senators have confidence
that it will be obtained through a move
ment now on foot among Democratic
senators who favor the bill. This move
ment contemplates getting the consent
of the opponents of the bill to the taking
of a vote in exchange for the promise of
enough votes to make the passage of a
Bilver bill, something on the order of
Senator Faulkner's proposed amend
ment to the Voorhees bill, a certainty
immediately after the Voorhees bill is
passed.
The sensational statements concerning
the nomination of Mr. J. J. Van Alen
to be ambassador to Italy will doubtless
be investigated by the senate committee
on foreign relations before bis nomina
tion is acted upon. No one belives thnt
either President Cleveland or ex-Secre
tary Whitney was a party to any promise
made to give Mr. Van Alen this position
because of his having mnde a large cam
paign contribution, and an investigation
will probably show that no such promiso
was made by anybody, S,
SOCIABILITY OF SQUIRRELS.
Souie of the Speedy A<quatutan<cß Formed
by Thein.
Squirrels are charmed by a woman's
quiet manner and gentle voice. They
will learn to feed out of her hand, and
even to search her pockets for nuts
and bread crusts. A lady who was in
the habit of feeding the squirrels that
nested in her garden kept a china jar
of nuts on the man tie piece. More than
once she was surprised to find the jar
emptied of its contents. At last she
discovered that tlie squirrels came into
her room, lifted off the lid and helped
themselves. A writer in the Argosy
tells what happened when the cage
door of a pet squirrel was left open.
A day or two afterward a young
lady who was staying at the house
told us that our squirrel had run up tc
her in the gravel walk; and next morn
ing Charlie made his appearance at
the dining-room window. His visits
I were repeated for several days. No at
tempt was mado to enpture him. He
ran about the room as if in search of
something; and at last jumped on o
canary's cage which hung in the win
dow.
"I believe ho is looking for his own
old homo," 1 said, and immediately
upon my fetching it from the lofl
whero it had beon put away Charlie
run in, gave himself a swing on the
roller, and ate the nuts wo placed iq
the tray.
It is to be supposed that Charlie told
his friends that wo were lovers of an
iinals, and might bo trusted; for othci
squirrels frequently visited us, in the
house and in the grounds. Those were
the happy days—for quiet country
ladies—of croquet playing; and we had
a levelled ground in a part of the fli
wood near the garden, whero we often
spent the summer afternoons.
There the squirrels wore qui to at
home, and would run up our mallete
and sit upon our shoulders, or even on
the crowns of our hats.
Some of our visitors they made ac
quaintanco with immediately, othert?
they always avoided. A little toy
terrier, with a bell attached to its col
lar, which the cunning little creature
used to try to silence, that it might
steal upon our favorites unheard, wae
their peculiar aversion; but our own
pet Skye, St. Barbe, would let them
climb over his back and frolic about
him without stirring an inch.
SUPERSTITIOUS GAMBLERS.
llow the Expression "Dead Indian I'ndni
tho House" Arose.
"There must be a dead Indian undei
the house." How many times that hap
been said across the gambling table in
Helena! And yet how few people
know tho origin of the expression,
says a writer in tho Helena InHopen
dent. Its meaning was well-known,
however, as everybody was heard to
use it when the cards were against
him. Still, for all that, a dead Indian,
or what was left of him after his dust
had mingled with tho soil his fore
fathers owned, lay under one of the
gambling houses of Helena from the
time the building was erected until a
Bhort time ago.
In digging the foundation for tho
Exchange, in the early days of tho
town, an Indian grave was found.
Rather than disturb tho bones the
builder concluded to let them rest
there. Tho house went up and for
years tho cards were shuffled and
dealt over the last resting place of the
red man. The proprietor of the house
knew ho was there, and whenever luck
ran against the game it became the
custom of the dealers to lay tho blame
on the "dead Indian."
By and by people who were playing
against the bank took up the expres
sion, and when a steady run of bad
luck followed them it was the custom
to remark: "There must be a dead In
dian under tho house." Twice within
the past six months tho Exchange has
closed its doors for lack of funds or
other sufficient causes. When tho
present owner decided to improve the
building he concluded that ho would
move the Indian, and it was done.
CURFEW IN COREA.
Curious 8oclii Customs In a Far Corner
, of tho World.
"In Seoul the curfew rings at dusk
and the gates of the city are locked.
Then the men retire to their houses
and tho town is given over to the wom
en, who must make their visits after
nightfall," says Rev. 11. G. Appenzeller
in the San Francisco Chronicle. "This
is the law and this is the theory, but
it has fallen into innocuous desuetude
in latter years. When I first went to
Corea in 1885 the practice was quite
rigidly observed, but the nation is be
coming more enlightened and is slowly
adopting American or European ideas
and customs." Rev. 11. G. Appenzeller
has for the past eight years been a
missionary of the Methodist Episcopal
church in the hermit kingdom. He has
been on a visit to his old home in
Pennsylvania and is now on his way
back to Corea.
"1 went to Corea In 1885," says Mr.
Appenzeller, "and was one of the first
missionaries of our church In that
kingdom. Up to my departure last
year I was the superintendent of the
mission in SeouL
"Coreans describe Americans as a
'first-class nation.' They believe in us
and regard us as friends. Not from
any individual preference; but simply
because I am an American," says Mr.
Appenzeller, "1 received the kindest
attentions from magistrates while
traveling in Corea and was recognized
by the king. Our college was given
a standing in the kingdom, and the
medical work of our missionaries was
highly esteemed. Seoul is a walled
town of about threo hundred thousand
peoplo. The wall is sixteen miles
around, forty-two feet high and twenty
flvo feet thick. It is faced with solid
masonry. The native chronicles say
that it was built in nine months."

PICKED UP BY THE WAY.
THINGS SEEN AND HEARD IN THE
TOWN AND VICINITY.
Matter, of a I.ocal Nature Commented
Upon and I-laced llefore tlio Readers of
llio "Tribune" In Large Letters-Some
Paragraphs May Interest ion.
My mention last week of a
superintendent of a coal com
pany who was charging 50
cents for approving applica
tions for employment has
brought forth an explanation
from the office of the firm. I
am told by the editor of the
TRIBUNE that it is due to a new
system inaugrated by the com
pany, and which has been ex
plained to him by one of the
higher officials. The 50 cents
asked of the old man who was
seeking work was to pay for a
brass check which every em
ploye is now to be furnished
with. This check contains a
number similar to the number
on the pay check, and its prin
ciple use will he to identify the
workers 011 pay-day. No mon
ey will be paid upon any per
son's account unless the re
ceiver can show the brass
check.
Another use to which it will
he put is to prevent employes
from leaving at one colliery
and securing a job at another.
It is claimed that much annoy
ance was caused the company
by this practice, and the check,
it is thought, will have a ten
dency to stop it considerably.
When a man or boy desires to
leave the firm's employ he will
receive 50 cents for the check
by presenting it at the office.
The system was begun on Sep
tember 1, but as it was not
known or thoroughly under
stood by persons looking for
work, and as in the case of the
demand for 50 cents from the
old gentleman referred to last
week was not clearly explain
ed, the rumor naturally spread
that the superintendent in
tended to have the money for
his personal use.
When making any departure
from their previous methods or
changing their system, as in
this case, it would he well for
corporations to make the fact
known to the public, thereby
avoiding the inconvenience of
afterward explaining or of
having unjust reflections cast
upon the men to whose lot it
falls to put them into effect.
A broader and more liberal
manner of dealing with the
people in general by the coal
companies of the region would
bring them in closer touch
with all and a better feeling
toward them would be the re
sult. Instead, matters which
concern employes are kept as
secret as they can, and then
when changes are made or pro
posed the company'sintentions,
from a lack of knowledge 011
the gossiper's part, are mis
represented and further fric
tion and discord produced.
"Sauntercr," in the FHEKLAND TKI
HI'XE, says there is very little interest in
the coming election by the voters of the
lower end and predicts that there will
be a heavy falling off in the vote cast.
The apathy he attributes to the fact that
the lower end has no representation on
the ticket. The lower end, if the
"Sauntercr" will bear in mind, has
three of the most desirable offices in the
court house now, which is certainly
more than they are entitled to, and they
should support the ticket for that reason.
All the offices can't go to the lower end,
a fact they appear to be unaware of.—
Newsdealer,
Very true, Sam, we can't
have everything our own way
all the time, hut even though
the lower end has three of the
most desirable offices, the peo
ple of this district like to have
a slice of the pie every time
the political wheel goes round.
There are seven candidates
this year on the ticket, and
had the convention shown the
average amount of common
sense one of them would hail
from the fourth.
Still, no one should think for
a moment that the voters down
here are crying over the way
they were treated last August.
They can stand it, never fear,
if the bosses can, but the lead
ers must not expect enthusi
astic support for a ticket that
was railroaded through by a
few men who would throttle
the Democracy of this county
to further their selfish aims.
No, the fourth district people
are not tossing their hats very
high this year, and, while their
opinion of the candidates may
be very good, they are getting
tired of dancing to every tune
the county seat fiddlers feel
'ike playing. Another thing
for W ilkes-Barre Democrats to
remember: Don't try to help
your ticket down here by cast-
ing up the number of offices
given us. That card will prove
j a boomerang.
I hear the Democratic candi
dates will swoop down upon
the fourth district and remain
here a whole week repairing
the party's fences, and from
some accounts the breaks are
very bad in several parts.
Just why candidates travel
year after year through the
county, flocked together like
sheep, is not known, unless it
is to watch one another and
prevent deals with the opposi
tion. There are many voters,
however, who do not care
about helping a man to office
without first having a look at
him, and as the delegation that
is said to be coming is a res
pectable-looking body of men
the trip may not do their cause
any harm. Then, according to
custom, the Republicans will
trot out their stock, and I think
the assortment will be more
varied, for I am told the ticket
contains an American, an Eng
lishman, a "Welshman, a Ger
man and an Irishman, besides
another whose pedigree can be
arranged to suit any occasion.
It was so long ago since the
Prohibitionists of the county
nominated their ticket that
many of the voters seem to
have forgotten this party has
a candidate for commissioner
from our neighborhood, Ed
ward Garris, of Sandy Run.
Now, as to what chances Ed.
will have for a seat in the
court house for the next three
years I do not know, but I do
think lie is going to get a
handsome complimentary vote
throughout the township, and
he is worthy of any man's
vote. Foster is a big territory
and its citizens have been roll
ing up votes for many years
for the Democratic and Repub
lican parties, yet they are
ignored every time when it
comes to giving out the offices
at the county and district con
ventions. Consequently, since
the youngest party in the field
has given Foster a candidate,
a large vote for Mr. Garris
from the members of the other
two might help in awakening
the rings to the justice of the
township's claims for recogni
tion when future plums are
being dropped to the lower
end. SAUNTEREK.

Of One Who Suffered Years

Both of Philadelphia

WITIOUT GETTIIG RELIEF.
AND IS NOW CURED
BY DR. RIEGEL.
I have been a sufferer for a number of
years with catarrh in its worst forms.
Had constant headaches, matter drop
ping in the throat, dizziness, nose stop
ped up, difficulty in breathing and no
doubt would soon have been a consump
tive, had I not met Dr. Riegel.
Before that time I had tried eyery
well-known remedy and doctored with
many physicians, not only of Hazleton
but of New York and Philadelphia, but
could get no relief anywhere. As soon
as Dr. Riegel began treating me 1 felt
relieved and continued to improve until
now I feel like a new man, and knowing
that there are many others suffering as
much as I did I write this for publica
tion, so that others may avail them
selves of Dr. Hirgel's treatment before it
is too late. He can cure you if you take
it in time.
I am willing to answer any letters of
inquiry from persons wishing to consult
