WASHINGTON LETTER.
Washington, February 10, 1897.
When a Democrat, or a l'opulist uses
•uch language as Representative Caldcr
head, a good Kansas Republican, did
before the house banking and currency
committee, of which he is a member,
certain Republican editors invariably
call it "anarchistic raving." The text
of Mr. Calderhe&d's remarks was the
bill naming thirteen American million
aires, among them Andy Carnegie and
Phil Armour, as incorporators of the
"International American Bank," with
authority to establish eight branch
banks in other countries. This bill or a
similar one has been before this com
mittee in several congresses, and it was
only when an attempt was made to push
it through the committee when Mr. Cul
derhcad spoke against it, in part as fol
lows: "The whole United States is in a
condition of unrest. Tho underhalf of
the country believes that it is injured,
and injured largely by the power of ag
gregated wealth. They actually believe
it. They believe it to such an extent
that large areas of the country need
nothing but a leader of ability to give u>
an insurrection. That is tho truth, and
that is the political storm that will fol
low any attempt, direct or indirect, to
incorporate the men named here into a
private hank with a capital of millions
of dollars, and the plea that it is done for
the benefit of international commerce
will not answer that mob—for it is a
mob—which only needs a commanding
general to lead it. If the leader should
happen to have the military instinct, it
would mean civil war."
In a speech made by Pension Commis
sioner Murphy, in answer to resolutions
commending his administration of tin
pension bureau, presented by a com
mittee from two Pennsylvania G. A. R.
Posts, Mr. Murphy told for the first time
iu public, the instructions given him by
President Cleveland when he appointed
him commissioner of pensions. What
ever may be one's opinion of many of
his other policies, it is difficult to see 1
how any man could have outlined in a
few words a more just and patriotic
pension policy than President Cleveland
did when he said to Commissioner
Murphy: "Mr. Murphy. I think you |
know my idea of the pension bureau and
tho pension system. They are just
these: In claims coming up for the ac
tion of the bureau, where you find the
case of a worthy soldier who served his
country faithfully in her hour of danger,
you will he lenient with him and give
him the benefit of a reasonable doubt.
At settling the claims of the widows
and orphans, you will act in the same !
manner, but waste no sympathy on the
unworthy."
Another billion dollar congress! Al
though the exact figures cannot be given
until the last appropriation bill has been
passed, it is already known, and admit
ted by the Republican chairman of the
committee on appropriations of both
house and senate, that the total appro
priations will not only exceed one billion
dollars, but that they will go enough be
yond that amount to break the high
water record made by the previous bil
lion dollar Republican congress by an
advance of thirty or forty million dol
lars. This, too, In the face of the gener
al Republican howl about the insuffi
ciency of revenue provided by the pres
ent tariff bill. There is little doubt
that tho Republican leaders have al
lowed the Appropriations to pile up. al
though apparently lighting for economy
by shutting out hills even for the smal
lest public building, in order to make
the deficit big enough to excuse the
tariff bill they are engaged in concoct
ing. They have: made a success of the
appropriations, but when the people get
a whack at them iu the next congression
al election, they will find how their
excuse has been accepted. Represen
tative Savers, of Texas, who was chair
man of the committee on appropriations
iu the last house, made a good speech,
attacking the extravagance of this con
gress, while the sundry civil bill was be
fore the house.
Senator Quay is reported to have a
letter written by Mr. Ila una, before
McKinley's nomination, demanding that
the Pittsburg Iron and Steel Manu
facturers put up a large sum of money
to be used in McKinley's behalf, and to
have threatened to make it public if the
McKinley crowd attempt to get too gay
with him. Quay is now in Pennsylvania,
where he went to help his son "Dick"
out in the libel suit which has been
thrown on his shoulders by tho publisher
of a Pittsburg paper.
It should be placed to the credit of
Mr. Cannon, chairman of the house com
mittee on appropriations, that he re
ported adversely the resolution approp
riating SSOO for the erection of a stand
for the use of senators and representa
tives and their families on Inauguration
day, on the ground that senators and
representatives should pay for seats,
just as other people do, if they wish to
sit down to view the inaugural parade.
Notwithstanding the amendments
made to propitiate the opposition, Sena
tor Sherman, who was iu charge of the
arbitration treaty, was compelled to bow
to tho inevitable and agree to postpone
further consideration of the treaty until
the next session.
It. is said by some investigative indi
vidual that taken the world over three
women wear false teeth to every two
men. It would be interesting to know
why this is, if so. More men make
sewers of their mouths with tobacco,
drink, etc., than do women, and as n
rule men are more cureless of their teeth
than are women, nnd yet there is good
reason to believe the above assertion.
Maryland has fallen into I' ve with

"A Day at Ills Desk."
Ex-President Harrison has written of
"A Day With the President at His Desk''
for the March Ladies 1 Home Journal.
The article is said to be singulary inter
esting in the detail with which it de
scribes the wearisome routine of the
president. It is said that General Har
rison, in this article, has delivered him
self with great directness and vigor re
lative to the annoyances that are visited
upon a chief executive by persistent
office seekers, and he suggests a unique
plan, by which the president's burdens
in that direction could he greatly ligh
tened, and he bo enable to devote more
attention to more important matters.
A feature of tin? article that will have a
timely interest to those ambitions to
serve the country under the incoming
administration, describes very fully how
the president makes appointment to of
fice. "A Day Willi the President at IBs
Desk" is unique in being the first, time
that the daily life of the president has
been described by one who has Hilled tho
exalted office. Articles upon the social
and domestic life of the president by
General Harrison will follow in succes
sive issues of the Journal.

Oh. Cl.e ftve-oclock cliltnc brings the COEI
est 'time
That Is found in the whole of the day,
When Larry and Gus and the others of u>
Come In from our study or play;
When we push the big chair to the hearth
over there,
And pile tlie wood higher and higher,
And we make her a space in the very best
place—
And mother sits down by the fire.
There's a great deal to say at the close o?
the day.
And so much to talk over with mother;
There's a comical sight or a horrible
plight.
Or a ball game, or something or other;
And she'll laugh with Larry, and sigh with
Harry,
And smile to our heart's desire
At a triumph won or a task well done—
When sitting down there by the fire.
Then little she'll care for the clothes that
we tear,
Or the hatoc we make on her larder;
For the toil and the strife of our every
day iffe
' She will love us a little bit harder;
Then our lady she is, and her knights wf
would be,
And iter trust doughty deeds will In
spire:
For we long then anew to be generous am'
true—
When mother sits down by the fire.

THEY ABDUCTED THE BAND.
And Spoilod tho Danco Given by
the Rival Set.
The returned Cow Puncher set down
his cup of black coffee after he had
taken t.he first sip, and pursed up his
tnoutli into an expression of scorn.
"SJop," lie said, briefly.
The Poet, made a gesture of protest.
"Oh, 1 dare say it's strong* enough for
you!" said the Cow Puncher.
"What?"
"The coffee."
"It was your expression to which !
objected."
"When I said tho stuff was—"
"Spare us a repetition!" interrupted
the Poet.
"Well, I suppose my imagery is rath
er too epic for you. So would the coffee
be that 1 had In mind—l wish I iiad it
in this cup as well! —when J spoke.
U-m-m!" And the Cow Puncher closed
his eyes with the look of a satisfied
epicure. "They call this stuff 'black'
coffee," he went on, rousing htansclf.
"About black enough for tlie second or
third year of widowhood, I should say.
You ought to taste the coffee we used
to have down in Texas 1 It was so
strong that rt ate the enamel off the
cups."
"That's some more of your epic im
agery," laughed the Hoys' Own Story
Writer.
"Pretty strong coffee, evidently," re
marked the Poet, "but it doesn't seem
lo have been able to affect brass."
The Cow Puncher carelessly knocked
the ashes from the end of his cigarette
and regarded the Poet out of the tail
of his eye, but "Texas is a great state"
was all that he said.
"It was two years ago," he resumed,
after a pause, "that we gave our famous
dance, upon which glorious occasion
we ever/lastingly scooped the rival cow
boys at tlic other end of the town."
"I thought you lived oav a ranch," in
terposed the Poet, with deep suspicion.
"Did you think I spent throe years
out there and sow only one view? Bur
then you don't understand tlie lives of
men of action, 1 suppose, and I mustn't
be too hard on you."
"About that dance?" asked the Boys'
Own.
"Ah, that was a great event!" ex
claimed the Cow Puncher, lighting a
fresh cigarette. "You see. Hhe idee
originated with OUT end of the town,
and naturally we felt that we had a
right to it.. Anybody would have felt
so. Anybody, that is, except our deadly
rivals. No sooner had t.he news of our
scheme got out than they began to lay
their plans for a howdy-do, and on the
same niglit as ours, mind yon!"
"What difference did tlhat make?"
growled the Poet.
"Well, it made just this difference:
I'here wasn't, room in that town for two
balls, and everybody knew it. It la}
between us lo get the crowd. We
couldn't both get it, and neither of us
could get half a crowd. Tilings don't
iro that way out there. Everybody goes
to the place that puts up the best, show
and the other one doesn't have a cor
poral's guard. We knew this, so we had
taken care to engage the only music
in tho town before we let a word of our
plans get out- This music consisted
of a fiddle (cracked) pb.ved by a fiddler
(who was also cracked), seconded by a
wheezy melodeon which had away of
going off into a fit of gasps when you
.vnre most depending on it.
"It was a great thing for us to have
secured the music, because that, we
knew, would prove n terrible handicap
to our rivals. 'Buoy wouldn't be able
to put up anything better than one of
heir own men who played the mouth
organ, and didn't amount to much even
•. i that, inasmuch as lie had only one
'ting. We felt pretty jubilant, 1 tell
\ ou; and the other fellows looked cor
respondingly blue. But that didn't last
long. One day we heard a startling
rumor. We could scarcely believe our
raises, but ample proof was soon fur
nished lis that the dreadful tale was
true. Our rivals had hired a Mexican
band from n town about 50 miles away!
"That settled our cake! We liekf a
consultation at once and canvassed the
possibilities, but we bad to admit that
they were as good as hopeless. We ini-
I mediately enlarged the scope of the sup
| |er we had promised. Of course there
; was to have been black coffee—that was
I what reminded me of the dance— nnd
whisky and various other things, and
! we promptly sent out an emissary to
, spread the news n the town that our
! eating programme had been doubled.
All the time, though, we knew it was a
| forlorn hope.
I "You see, It was this wnv: The
feminine element of our community
was limited. Partners were at. n
premium, even if every woman in the
place turned out, and where the women
went, there you could be dead sure the
men would go, too. Well, the women
wouldn't hesitate a minute if it came
to a choice between a little better sup
per aud a good deal better music. We
knew that, and we felt as if we might
ns well lay our hands down and give uj
the game. There was a fellow there
from Kentucky, though, and the day
after the announcement of the import
ed bund came out he strolled in at sup
per time and threw his hat into the
corner with one of his most effective
blue-glass-country salutes. We re
turned the compliments of the evening
and he sat down at the table.
"'How's the pahty comin' on?' he
asked.
"We groaned.
" 'Oh,' he said, 'you all ain't got moh'n
enough ingenuity to suhcomveut a
kitten! If one o' you gentlemen 'll be
good enough as to place himself undah
my directions I give yo' my honah that
we'll have the only ball in this heah
town!'
"Well, perhups we didn't jump at the
offer, and, after he'd picked out his
man, we made him tell whut his plun
was. I'll tell you how we carried it
out. The next morning we all went
out looking very gay and cheerful; quite
u contrast to the glum set we had been.
Whenever anybody gave us the razzle
dazzle, begging your pardon (the apol
ogy was in the l'oet's direction) we —
well, we gave them the ha! ha! and
looked so blamed sujx-rior that the
town couldn't make out what was up.
When we ran across one of the ladies
whom we had invited to come—not that
we had omitted to ask any of them—
we were as dashing as we knew how to
be. We wanted to know how many
dances we were going to have with 'em
and all that. Yhey couldn't make us
out quite, but they gave us to under
stand that our name was Dennis be
cause, to be sure, of the lovely music
that the other gentlemen were import
ing for the occasion. Iladn't we heard
of it?
"We laughed at this; laughed loud
and long, much to their bewilderment;
and finally we found breath enough tc
n-sk them if they really believed in that
fake story of an imported band. Oh.
sure they did! At which we laughed
again, and then pitied them. Finally,
when we had them at the proper point,
we swore to them that no band was
coining, that we knew it, and we were
willing to stake all our future chances
us entertainers 011 it. Well, they
hedged a little then, promised to come
to our party if the band didn't turn up,
and that was all we asked. Our Ken
tucky cavalier had agreed to see that
the baiul did not turn up."
"How did he fix that?" asked the
Boys' Own, and his tone spoke evident
regret that this theme wasn't nil that
could be desired for a story for the
young, else could he have made copy
of it.
"Easy! easy!" said the Cow Puncher,
carelessly. "It was the simplest thing
in the world. We learned that the bond
was to arrive on away train which
passed our town at nine o'clock in the
evening. About seven o'clock the Ken
tuekian and his companion got 011 their
horses and rode quietly out of town.
They want to another village, ten miles
or so down the road, where tilie train
was due about 8:30. They don't run
lightning expresses for the local traffic
out that way. When the train caine in
our two fellows boarded it, found the
band promptly, greeted them with a
jovial welcome, told them it was their
station, and hauled them off ajiil into
a big wagon which they had all ready
there. The Mexicans didn't really know
where they were, and the Kentuckiaai
fooled them completely, lie and the
other fellow got on their horses and
started with the wagcm out on the road
to our town. At first they thought
they would start in the opposite direc
tion, but they didn't want to miss any
more of the ball than was necessary,
so they took their own road.
'When tliey were two miles out of
town the wagon broke down. My! that
Keut.uekian was a sly devil! He worked
it just right. When the breakdown oc
curred they made a show of examining
the wagon and took the occasion to
remove several other bolts besides the
one they had 'fixed* originally. Then
they told the Mexicans that they, our
fellows, would have to ride 011 to a place
near by and get something to fix the
wagon with. They told the band to
'just sit there quietly' until they came
back, and with flhnt they spurred up
their horses and were off like the wind
for home and the datnoe. They got
there almost as soon as the crowd did."
"Then you got 'he crowd?"
"Well, .did we got the crowd ?" repeat
ed the Cow Puncher, wagging his liead
with pride. "You never saw such a
landslide as there was when that train
came in witliout bringing* any. band!.
The party simply melted away at the
other place, and it wasn't five minutes
after the train had gone out O# Bight
before I was dancing my first waltz
with a—well, it may be that time and
distance enhance Veir charms, and any
way I see a gleam ; m the Poet's eye, and
1 know he'll mahc copy out of my dam
sel of the donee, otnd I won't have it.
Hut I'll tell you what I will do.
"Here, waiter! Say, boil down some
of that octoroon coffee, will you, and
bring us some that's black! You un
derstand, black!
"If he does it, I'll drink her health
with you, though I doubt if it does
much good. As 1 remember, she must
have imbibed about a quart of our
coffee that night, and she was a north
erner. They can't do it always with
impunity. But it made her eyes shine
that night, anyway. My, what a night
that was!"—N. Y. Sun.
