WASHINGTON LETTER.
Washington, February 2,1894.
President Cleveland was one of the
first, outside of his congressional col
leagues, to extend congratulations to
Chairman Wilson on the succes of his
tariff tight in the house. The congratu- ■
lations were telephoned from the White
House to the capitol. Mr. Wilson is not
a man of robust health at best, and the
continuous and arduous labor which he
performed since becoming chairman of
the ways and means committee has al
most completely broken him down. He
lias earned a rest and he will probably
leave Washington to spend several weeks
in some quiet place. Other Democrats
at times allowed the noise of the op
position to raise doubts of the passage of
the bill, but Mr. Wilson has been calmly
confident from the day the hill was re
ported from the committee that it would
pass without being materially changed.
The result shows that his confidence
was built upon a firm foundation—tiie
belief that men elected to congress on a
tariff reform issue would not allow them
selves to be stampeded by a manufac
tured sentiment against tariff reform.
Representative Dingley, of Maine, was
the only Republican who succeeded in
getting an amendment to the tariff bill
adopted. He moved that the bond
period provided in the whiskey clause :
of the internal revenue section of the
bill should he three years, as at present,
instead of eight years, as reported from
the committee, and the house voted with
liim.
Democratic opposition to the income
tax amendment, which at one time
seemed strong enough to endanger tiie
whole bill, began to grow less and less
early in the week and a day or two he
fore the vote was taken had grown so
insignificant that it was no longer con
•_Bidered a factor in the fight. If the
Democratic senators will do as well as (
the Democrats in the house have done
tariff reform will soon he here, hut in
dications do not point to speedy action
by the senate.
The debate on the Tucker bill for the •
repeal of the Federal election laws will j
close in the senate next Tuesday and !
the bill will he passed, notwithstanding
the silly stories which have been widely
circulated attributing indifference on the
part of Democratic senators towards the
bill. Not one word has been said by a
Democrat to indicate that a single Demo
cratic senator will vote against the bill
or remain away to keep from voting
upon it. Neither is there any truth in
the statement that Mr. Cleveland has
expressed opposition to the bill.
Strange to say no Democrat has applied
so far as known, for the position of
United States minister to Russia, one of
the few positions in the diplomatic ser
vice that carries a salary as high as
$17,500. Whether this is because no
Democrat hankers after a residence in
the land of the czar, or that the opinion
is general that the warm personal friend
ship which President Cleveland is
known to feel towards the present
minister—Hon. Andrew D. White, ex
president of Cornell university—will
prevent his removal, is a question.
►Secretary Carlisle accepted bids y tiß .
terday for the $50,000,000 of bonds, in
accordance with the official announce
ment recently made, notwithstanding
the attempt of the Knights of Labor to
prevent the issue by obtaining an in
junction from the courts on account of
the supposed illegality of their issue.
There is some talk in favor of the Bailey 1
resolution, which has been favorably
reported to the house, being rushed
through as a hint to Secretary Carlisle
that the money received for the bonds
shall only be used to strengthen the gold
reserve fund, but as Representative
McCreary has secured the right of way
for the next three days in the house for
his Hawaiian resolution it is clear that
Mr. Bailey's resolution cannot come up
until the expiration of that time. Sena
tor Sherman strongly favors Secretary
Carlisle's action, hut other Republicans
are trying to make trouble, hoping to
gain some partisan advantage. S. I
NEED OF THE POET.
The Lawn or the Mind Make film an Im
portant Factor.
It is impossible for men to live in the
worhl without poetry of some sort or
other. If they cannot get the best
I they will get some substitute for it,
and thus seem to verify Saint Augus
| tine's slur that it is wine of devils, says
James Russell Lowell in Century.
The mind bound down too closely to
what is practical either becomes inert, '
jor revenges itself by rushing into the
savage wilderness of "isms." The in- ;
sincerity of our civilization has dis
gusted some persons so much that they
have sought refuge in Indian wigwams
and found refreshment in talcing a j
scalp now and then. Nature insists
above all things upon balance. She j
contrives to maintain a harmony be- .
tween the material and spiritual, nor !
allows the cerebrum an expansion at |
the cost <>f the cerebellum. If the j
character, for example, **un on one side j
into religious enthusiasm, it is not un- i
likely to develop on the other a coun- !
terpoise of worldly prudence. Thus |
the Shaker and the Moravian are noted 1
for thrift, and mystics are not always i
the worst managers. Through nil
changes of condition and experience
man continues to be a citizen of the
world of idea as well as the world of
fact, and the tax gatherers of both are
i punctual.
There is as much poetry as ever in 1
i the world if we only knew how to find
it out, and as much imagination, per- ,
haps, only that it takes a more prosaic
direction. Every man who meets with
misfortune, who is stripped of material
prosperity, finds that he lias a little
outlying mountain farm of imagina- 1
tion, which did not appear in the
schedule of his effects, on which his
spirit is able to keep itself alive, though i
he never thought of it while he was !
fortunate. Job turns out to be a great ;
poet as soon as his flocks and herds are
taken away from him.
TENANTED BY WILD HOGS.
A Large Alabama Tract Where No Hu- '
man lie In-.* Dwells.
In the northern part of Limestone
county, Ala., is a tract of land con- j
sisting of more than one thousand
acres, which is not on the map of the |
state, nor can it he found in the reg- i
ister's office of that county. No one
claims it and no taxes have ever been i
paid on it. It is a vast wilderness, in- j
habited by snakes, deer and razorbaclc i
hogs. It is a free hunting ground, and
thousands of these hogs are killed
every year, more for sport than for
anything else. The hogs are wild and
cannot be domesticated. Their yield
is said to be enormous. Tom Booth, of
Pulaski, Term., secured a male and fe
male and did all in his power to tame
them, but failed. lie kept them a
year, and at the end of that time they
were as wild as at first. The more lie
fed them the thinner they became.
Within the year they consumed four
hundred bushels of corn and were as
lean as church mice. During that time
the sow had five litters of pigs, num
bering two hundred and ten. Mr.
Booth could not tame any of these nor
get them fat enough to make even
soap grease. Finally he gave them to
a negro, who now considers himself
under no obligations to Mr. Booth.
The flesh of these hogs resembles
horseflesh. It Is as tough as a coon
skin, and a large-sized hog of this
i 1 species rendered would not make
grease enough to fry a skillet of batter
I cakes. They go through a garden like
} a shovel plow, and no vegetable es
capes them. They can crowd through
! a crack th.it would hardly admit a
mouse, and their sharp noses act as
levers fox garden gates. The Tenncs
scans make great fun of Alabama's
I razor back hogs.
REFUSED A THRONE.
The Hoir Presumptive of Austria Thrown
Over for a Young Lieutenant.
; Some time ago, says Vienna Letter
j in the London News, it was believed
that the heir presumptive to the Aus
| trian throne, Archduke Francis Ferdi
nand, would marry his Bavarian cous
in's daughter, Princess Elizabeth. It
is now heard that the idea existed, and
was much favored by the emperor, but
the young princess frustrated these
plans.
More than a year ago she began to
look approvingly upon a handsome
young lieutenant, Baron S . The
young officer began by riding past her
windows a couple of times a day, then
he obtained a room with windows
facing Prince Leopold's palace. In the
winter, at court balls, the lieutenant
danced oftcner than any other with the
princess, and in the spring lawn tennis
brought them more together still.
All at once the young officer was
transferred to a regiment stationed in
Alsace; and this seemed the tame end
of a romantic story. But in the sum
mer, when Princess Elizabeth staid
with her emperor grandpa at Ischl, she
is 'supposed to have used her time so
well that the emperor promised to
make the baron a prince, to give Mm
some landed property, and to allow the
happy couple to marry if their love
was proof against time.
The princess is nineteen, pretty, per
fectly natural, and very sweet-tem
pered. That she should have preferred
a union with the man she loves to the
certainty of an imperial throne will
not alienate the sympathies of those
who know her and love her for her
natural grace.
j flUMtnti liestlty KegulatloiUk
Princess llolienlohe, the wife of the
governor general of Alsace-Lorraine,
inherited from her uncle, a Russian
general, estates in Russia worth 80,-
000,000 or 40,000,000 rubles. Under the
Russian law foreign non-residents can
not hold property, and the princess
was compelled to sell her estates at
once. She asked the czar to grant her
a little time, as the financial strin
gency, which prevails in Russians well
as in this country, has made real estate
hard to dispose of. The czar, how
ever, for political reasons, refused to
grant the extension and the poor wom
an was able to realize only a beggarly
. pittance of 15,000,Ge0 or 20,000,00U rubles
1 from her heritage. ......
THE GREYHOUND.
D<,gs Cued ror the ( h:o by EafflUh
Sovereign!* MII<I NobloH.
Greyhounds have existed in very
much the sninc form as we And them
to-day for more than three thousand
years, as we find them pictured on
Egyptian monuments of that remote
period. The name probably came from
their general color in England when
King Canute decreed that none but
princes and nobles should keep them.
The color now, in either smooth or
rough coated greyhounds, is very sel
dom grey, but more often fawn, red,
brindled (either red and black mixed
or fawn and blue), or black.
The smooth coated dog is known as !
the English prey hound, and the rough
coated as the Scotch deerhound. In
conformation they are very much
the same. They are the fastest run
ners of any of the canine race. On
level ground they can go as fast as a
race horse, and over hilly ground they
can unquestionably beat even the fleet
footed thoroughbred. Formerly the
English dog was used in chasing the
red and fallow deer, and it is related
that on one occasion Queen Elizabeth
witnessed the pulling down of sixteen
bucks. The dogs of that day must have
been stronger than those now found in
England. When the master of the
royal buck hounds now has a meet in the
royal forests of England it is a sorry
! sight, for the deer are themselves more
than half domesticated, and do not
know how to get away.
The greyhound is used, however, in
coursing hares, and it is one of the na
tional sports of (Ireat Britain. In
Texas and some other parts of America
where jack rabbits abound grey
hounds are kept to chase them. The
English greyhound is a beautiful,
graceful and aristocratic looking dog,
but the Scotch deerhound is more dig
nified in appearance. These dogs are
trained to hunt game by the eye alone.
They have good noses, however, and if
permitted to do so will also hunt by
scent.
THE VANISHING MOOSE.
Departure of New York'a Umno for Darts
Unknown.
A deer, when started by a hunter or
driven by hounds, usually returns in a
few days to the sume hill or mountain
side where he was first found; but a
moose, says Madison Grant in the
I Century, when once thoroughly
| alarmed, will start on a long, swinging
walk, and, taking with him his entire
family, leave for good. It is jno of the
greatest difliculties—and there are
| many—in still-hunting this animal, to
avoid getting him under way, for then
the hunter may as well break camp
and try other fields, since not u moose
v. ill be found within miles. They
scent a moccasin track or the smoke of
a fire at an incredible distance. A
fresh trail may be found one day and
arrangements made to follow it at day
break on the morrow. During the
night the moose, returning to his old
haunts, detects the danger-signs, and
all the hunters find in the morning is a
trail six or eight hours old leading for
parts unknown in an almost perfectly
straight line. The moose is at that
moment, perhaps, twenty miles off and
still going.
Although moose cannot be driven to
water by hounds like a deer, but will
turn savagely to bay, still they will
, not remain in a locality where dogsare
running; so that when the white hunt
. ers became numerous in the North
woods, and especially when they intro-
I duced hounding; the moose simply left
I the country and passed either east-
I wnrtl to Maine or north ward to j
Canada.
| It is a well-authenticated but little-|
known fact that they practically left
in one season. They were numerous
in the Adirondacks, especially in
Brown's tract—a large district in what
is now the southwestern part of the
wilderness—until the period between
IHS ) and 1855 (probably near the latter
year), when they suddenly disap
peared Before this several had been
killed yearly. Scattered ones were
shot later, b it 1855 marked their exit
from the annals of New York game.
Years later, four or five were brought
back to Snranac, but would not stay.

riio most honorable oillca in the Ro

There \\\ re always two elected every
year, one each from the patricians and
plebeians. The consul must be at
lea t forty-three years old and must
have held the office of quaestor, aedile
j pra-*tor. # The consuls were the heads
of the republic, discharging all public
fur.-lions, MI-H us receiving ambassa
dor?. or a: i' ling the senate. Their
insignia were those of a king except a

Matter* of a Local Nature Written t p
and l'laeed llefore the Render, of the

Here May Internet l'ou.
There is a quiet ruinor afloat
which connects the name of a
prominent young Democrat of
Drifton with the legislative
honors, and should the gentle
man in question decide to enter
the race he will make it lively
for Messrs. Sweeney and Reil
ly, of Hazleton, who have al
ready been mentioned as aspir
ants. Although I have receiv
ed the information from a relia
ble source that the young
man is considering the matter,
I do not feel justified in mak
ing public his name without
authority to do so and will re
serve that forsome future time.
Any candidate from this side
who can command the respect
of his party, as this gentleman
can, will receive the solid sup
port of the North Side and a
very large share of the dele
gates from the other end of the
district. There is a deep-root
ed feeling existing here that
the next Democratic noninee
ought to be a resident of this
section, and if the Democratic
leaders wish to recover the dis
trict for the party again there
is no surer way to bring it back
to the Democratic column than
by recognizing this feeling.
If there is one thing more
than another that makes a
man feel like kicking himself,
it is to be swindled when he is
quietly and secretly plotting
to get the best of a bargain by
some illegitimate means. And
through tear of being ridicul
ed by his friends, it is seldom
the vanquished will seek sym
pathy or redress by crying
out in public of his loss. Such,
however, was not the case of a
German who resides at Jeddo.
This gentleman had been in
Freeland and was on his way
home one evening last week
when I met him. He was
using all the pet phrases in the
best language of the Father
land in denouncing a man
whom he met in Freeland two
weeks previous that had "done
him."
The German has a relative
in Freeland who is a saloon
keeper, and as the colllieriesat
Jeddo were working very poor
ly he came to Freeland to
spend a day with his friend.
He had not been long in the
saloon when a gent from Drif
ton, but who has since remov
ed from that place, came in,
had a few drinks with the Ger
man and later both were seated
at a table enjoying a social
chat. The Driftonian repre
sented himself to the German
as assistant mine foreman and
driver boss at No. 1 Drifton
and his power to hire or dis
charge men was the most im
portant part of his position.
He laid particular stress on
this part of his duties and it
was not long nntil the German
began to play for a job.
The easy work, large pay
and numerous advantages of
working in Drifton were con
trasted with that of other
towns by the pretended fore
man, and everything was put
before the poor deluded Ger
man in glowing terms. At last
he asked for work and it was
given him upon conditions that
he paid 85 for the job. Not
having that amount of money
a compromise was effected by
which the assumed driver boss
accepted 82 and a gallon of
whiskey, and shortly after they
parted to meet at the same
place three days later when
the man from Jeddo would be
"put on." As the foreman
failed to show up since and the
German walked live times from
Jeddo to Freeland, he deter
mined to stand it no longer and
when I met him he was in
search of Messrs. Kudlick and
Ernest, of Drifton, to demand
the money and whiskey or the
job. Whether he reached his
destination or not I am unable
to say, but if he did, those gen
tlemen could guess the first
time who imposed upon the
German. SAUNTEREK.
