MILAN, Tenn., October 81, 1894. Only one face will be absent from the Tennessee delegation next term—Alfred A. Taylor, republican of the first district. “Alf” will go on the lecture stage with his brother, ex-Governor Bob Taylor, who defeated him for governor in the famous war of the roses. Isham G. Harris, Tennessee’s senior Sen- ator, who is now doing effective campaign work in the state, will succeed himself. There is no opposition against him. No man in Tennessee would have the hardi- hood to try and deadlock a Tennessee leg- istature against “Uncle Isham” in the face of the fact that for thirty years past the chief test of a candidate's loyalty, if he had aspirations for the general assembly, = “Are you an Isham G. Harris demo- crat?” The campaign for governor of Tennessee has been listless. Turney will be easily re-elected. H. Clay Evans, the candidate of the republican party, is a Chattanooga millionaire, who came to Tennessee from Ohio a score of years ago and became af- tluent. Evans represented the third district in Congress and was first assistant post- master general under Harrison's adminis- tration. A. L. Mimms, the populist candidate, is running for glory. Mimms is a school teacher and president of the State Alliance. it is believed here that the eight demo- cratic Congressmen from Tennessee will be returned. They are: Third, H, Clay Snod- grass; fourth, Benton McMillin; fifth, J. D. Richardson; sixth, Joseph E. Washington; seventh, N. N. Cox; eighth, B. A. Enloe; ninth, J. C. McDearmon; tenth, Josiah Pat- terson. Patterson is one of the few men in the south who stood by the President in the silver fight. Patterson had a hard time of it answering his constituents when they demanded a report of his term. The fight between Congressman Houk of Knoxville and Chancellor Henry Gibson is to the death. Gibson was nominated in a primary, but Houk had the committee, who declared him the nominee. Both are re- publicans, and the fight between them is very bitter. The general assembly, which meets in January, will be safely democratic. They will wrestle with the question of a con- stitutional convention, which is being clamored for by the people. All the south- ern states have held similar conventions, or have agitated the question, in the past five years, and Tennessee will probably have one next year. Another matter of moment is the local option question. The ile law has operated very sensibly state for many years. A movement is now on foot to pass a law similar to the Mississippi law, giving each town the right to vote its preference. All candidates for the general assembly have accepted the in the case, | the coats of the eult, Mr. | te pay nominations upon platforms containing a provision favorable to such a law. An attempt will be made to establish the supreme court permanently at Nashviile, and increase the salaries of the judges. A modified child labor law will be broadened. ‘The positions of state controller and treas- urer will be filled again in January. ‘The only announced cendidates are the present incumbents, James A. Harris and E. B. Craig. As a whole listlessness characterizes Tennessee politics, and no enthusiasm marks either party. . > THAT IRRIGATION LETTER. Part of Secretary Morton’s Communt- cation on the Subject Was Withheld. It will be remembered that Secretary Morton of the United States Department of Agriculture declined to send a representa- tive to the rational irrigation congress, held at Denver, Col. during September 3-7, 184, on the ground that the questions to be considered had no connection with practical irrigation, and because the congress was, in his opinion, called together for the purpose of petitioning the national Congress to grant large areas of the public lands to corporation The grounds of Secretary Morton's oppo- sition to all kinds of public land cessions were forcefully stated in a letter which he addressed to Mr. Thomas Knight, a prom- inent member of the Interstate Irrigation Association, which was read before the | congress and created considerable feeling in the ranks of the land cessionists, who after- ward suppressed certain portions of his let- ter and altered other parts, so Unat the Secretary was misrepresented in the reports of the congress and subjected to some un- just criticism, the grounds for which have only recently been brought to light by a let- ter received by the Secretary from Mr. ‘Thomas Knight, dated at Kansas City, Mo., eptember 21, saying: t is with a feeling of humiliation that I have to refer to my communications and replies thereto respecting the ‘national ation congress’ held at Denver during the week of September 3 to 7 last. “I trust that you will permit me to state that it was with the express intention of showing the members of that convention what the government was doing in the line of obtaining information of a practical na- ture relative to irrigation that the letter which has caused so much discussion was read to the delegates. “This was done when alt sorts of inconse- quent resolutions were being presented— some calling upon the government to pro- cure for public use that very information of which your official letter speaks—some demanding that the Department of Agri- culture should place itself in that very po- sition which your letter deprecates. “I so thoroughly agree with every point in your letter—so entirely accept It as ex- actly suitable to the matter at issue, that I feel that I cannot sufficiently thank you for its contents thus officially set forth. “But I must admit that my unnoyance was unbounded when I found the ‘cessionist’ element had deliberately and of set pur- pose suppressed the very portions of the letter, which, above all, it was my wish should have obtained the widest publicity. Nor could I by any means either secure this end or obtain possession of the letter in order to make the necessary publication myself. “T trust, sir, that you will accept my assurance that the unfair, uncourteous and disreputable use to which your letter has been put was without any countenance from myself. I trust also that you will put me on record as tndoraing every item contained in that communication, and also as the most determined and uncompromis- ing enemy of ‘land cession’ which may well be. “I also trust that you will accept my fullest apology for the annoyanca which I know well this very questionable pro- cedure must have caused you, and give me credit for far better intentions than the ‘ational irrigation congress’ will permit me to put In evidence,” Mrs, Myers Geta a Divyoroe, Judge Cox yesterday rigned a decree divorcing Franzonta M, Myers from Dilis G, Myers, The latter fled the original bill but it fg dismissed, and the divorce granted en @ cross-bill filed by Mre, Myers, Adultery was the ground fer grant- ing the decree, Mrs, Myers is given the stody of their child, Walter is Myers, ne matter of alimony js Fr her order of the esurt, yed until In addition to Myers is ordered 0, the costs and expenses of taken In his wile’s be pila atlas A Bright Outlo testimeny From Puck, Friend (to struggiing auther) —"Have you had any manuscripts accepted yet?"

Aisquith, formerly of Virginia, but for some years a resident of this coun- ty, was on Wednesday night stricken with apoplexy at his home near Travilah, and at latest report was in a very precarious con- dition, Col. Aisquith was in Rockville on Tuesday apparently in the enjoyment of robust health. Mr. Wm. B. Miller of Brookeville, former- ly sheriff of this county, and who has been suffering for many months with acute rheu- matism, was last night reported here to be in a dangerous condition, with little hopes of his recovery. Mr. Heury Risinger of Washington has purchased the Richards property at this place, consisting of a large store room, dwelling and bakery attached, for the sum of $10,000, The record in the case of the State of Maryland vs. Benjamin F. Lawson, for the murder of Lloyd Vermillion, on the Ist of September, was received here yesterday from the circuit court for Prince George's county. Messrs. R. H. Brandt,state’s attor- ney for Prince George's, and Edward C. Peter of this county, will appear for the state, and Messrs. R. F. Coombs and C. H. Stanly of Prince George’s will appear for the traverser. In this case there are twenty- three witnesses summoned for the state and twenty-two for the accused. The November term of the circuit court for this county will commence here on Mon- day, the 12th instant. The following are the number of cases docketed for the term: Criminals, 89; recognizances, 93; appeals, 31; trials, 98; judicials, 74; appearances, 130; re- moved cases, 3. The bird season opened here on the Ist instant, and since that time the woods and fields in this vicinity have presented a lively appearance, and the sound of the shot gun is heard in all directions from early morn until dark. Everything in the shape of a gun from the modern breech loader to an old army musket has been brought into requisition in this warfare against the quail. Parties who have been out and tramped over many miles report birds as very scarce in this locality, but those who visited the region adjoining the Potomac have come heme with game bags well filled. . Mr. Albert Dassey of Washington and Miss Roberta Bean of this county were mar- ried on Wednesday evening at Mt. Zion Baptis€ Church, by Rev, L. L. Lodge. The last legislature of Maryland having declined to extend the time of Associate Judge John T. Vinson of the circuit court, the official term of that gentleman will ex- pire in January next, and the question of his successor has been a subject of much interest for some time. Among the gentle- men prominently mentioned for the place are Hattersly W. Talbott, present state senator; W. Veirs Bouic, jr., James B, Hen- derson, Philip D. Laird, Spencer C. Jones, Thomas Anderson and H. Maurice Talbott. The vacancy will be filled by the governor ot the next general election in November, ——— BROOKLAND. Mrs. Westphall, mother of Mrs, Capt. Samuel Gaines of Galveston street, South Brookland, died at the residence of her daughter on Thursday evening. Mrs. West- phall was very ill at her home in Minne- sota during the summer, but recovered suffi- ciently to accompany Mrs. Gaines to Brook- land, and some hopes were entertained of her permanent restoration to health, when a sudden attack of rheumatism of the heart caused her death. During her last illness another daughter, Mrs. Black of Frankfort, Ky., was at her bedside. Her remains were taken yesterday to her former home in New York for interment. Mr. George E. Paxton and family moved from Washington to West Brookland this week. Judge W. H. Anderson of Concord street has been ‘spending the last fortnight in Louisville, Ky. The home of Mrs. N. B. Malone,on Frank- fcrt street, was beautifully decorated and brilliantly illuminated last evening, the oc- casion being a “chrysanthemum tea,” given to the young ladies of Mrs. Malone's Sun- day school class. Vari-colored chrysanthe- mums formed the table adornments, and were displayed in many niches in the spa- cious parlors, and boutonniers of the flow- ers of the hour were carried home by the young guests, who, after the dainty tea, had a most enjoyable time with games and other amusements. Mrs. Malone was as- sisted in entertaining by Mrs. William John- son, and those present were the Misses Birdie and Mabel Nicholson of West Wash- ington, and Bessie Biret, Hattie Johnson, Edna Sickles, Nora Moriarty, Margaret Marean and Violet Horner of Brookland. caer eas CLIFTON PARK. Politics in this quiet section of Montgom- ery county were stirred up last night by a large assemblage of its residents at the store of Mr, Wm. H. Clark, near Four Cor- ners. The grounds were handsomely {l- luminated by Japanese lanterns, and the meeting, which was in the interests of the republican nominee for Congress in the sixth Maryland, Mr. Geo. L. Wellington, was organized by the election of Mr. Benja- min F. Peters as chairman. The best of order prevailed throughout the proceed- ings. Speeches were made by Mr. J. Vance Lewis, Major Daniel O'Driscoll, Col. Kinsman and Mr. Spades. Two cottages have just been erected in the vicinity of Clifton Park, one of which is already occupied by Mr. William Barnes end family. Mr. William H. Davidson, who has been suffering recently from a’ severe attack of the grip, has recovered. Major Daniel O'Dri§coll has just returned to his home from a canvass in the inter- ests of the republican party along the Poto- mac in Montgomery county. Mrs. Martha Cobourn has removed from this place to Burnt Mills, Mr. J. S. J. Clarke of White Oak has gone to New York on business and is ex- pected home today.

Mother Goose Club—Views Expressed About Well-Known Rhymes, Written Exclusively for The Evering Star. Although the Mother Goose Club always meets promptly at 3 o'clock the lamps were already lighted in Mrs. Fin de Siecle’s drawing room when the meeting was called to order last Thursday afternoon, The hostess, sitting in the rose-colored light of a lamp shaded by an enormous pagoda of crinkley pink paper, apologized for the early illumination. “I thought,” she said, “that inasmuch as we shall be wanting lights before we are through, I would just save time by light- ing up before we begin. Besides, these fall skies give one the indigoes so, I think it’s @ positive relief to shut them out.” “Just hear that woman,” said the Con- gressman’s wife to her best friend, the woman in the cerise collar. “She's forty if she’s a day. Thank heaven I can still stand daylight.” “Yes, indeed, you can,” returned the cerise collar, with the smile that only one’s best friend can give, “you keep your com- plexion wonderfully.” ‘The Congressman’s wife made no reply, as the meeting had already begun. How- ever, a woman does not soon forget a thing of that kind. “The verse I have,” sald the wearer of = blue that, “admits of several construce ns. “ ‘Little Miss Muffet Sut on a tuffet, Bating of curds and whey. Fea came a black spider, ‘ho sat down beside her, And frightened Miss Muffet away.’ “I take the delight of the little girl with her curds and whey to signify the bliss of & honeymoon, interrupted by the first quar- rel. Even if Miss Muffet does come back the curds and whey will have lost their original savor, and she will be always look- ing over her shoulder for the spider. The worst of life is that one never forgets un- pleasant things, and the first quarrel is only the opening wedge for the coldness that comes between so many husbands and wives who really love each other. “My dear girl said the woman with a past, “did you ever hear of a honeymoon without a quarrel in it? For my part, I think all this talk about honeymoon bliss is nonsense. I've ceased to believe in gatory since my honeymoon. It would be unnecessary to have honeymoons and pur- Batory in the sam be universe.” “Oh, lon’t tl you can be right,” the bluet hat said in a shocked way, a she felt her back hair with her bare left hand, on the third finger of which was a new solitaire ring. “Surely you don’t mean that. And,” hurriedly, “the poem may mean so many other things, you know. You all know how one unpleasant thing can mar your recollection of a pleasant time, and how you never quite forget it. I know a woman who faints every time she hears the waltz from Faust. Faust was her curd and whey, you Know. She was playing that waltz on the piano one day when her hus- band was brought home dead. That was the black spider, don't you understand?” “Good heavens!’ exclaimed Mrs. Fin de Siecle, “you give one the horrors. I sup- pose everybody has had some dish of curds and whey spoiled by a spider, so,let’s not think of such unpleasant things. Let’s go on, who comes next?” “I think T do,” said the Congressman’s wife, “and I have a verse about women. “There was an old woman, and what do you think? ae upon nothing, but victuals and ink. Victuals and drink were all of her diet, And yet this old woman could never be quiet.” “She has enough to eat. She has enough to wear, and her clothes are sufficiently of the mode of the day to be worn with sat- isfaction. She has a comfortable home, a good, social position, and none of the soul wearing guides of poverty. Her busband is one of the best men on earth.” “The tragedies of the world are the lives of womer whose husbands are the best men on earth,” murmured the woman with a@ past. “She has all these things, and what more does a woman need to make her happy? Yet she is not happy. Why? Surely the desire to be something more than a hum- drum housewife ought not to make her unhappy. Surely the thought that she is only an incident In her husbands Hfe ought not to distress her. My dear sisters, the trouble lies In this: The modern woman ts not satisfied with her sphere. She is tired of being the well-cared-for domestic animal she has always been. She wants to live her own life, to possess an individuality of her own, to be a power in the world, to become a human being. Men may talk of the beauty of womanliness and all that, but did you ever meet a man who wished he were a woman? And did you ever meet a woman who didn't wish she were a man? The mistake was made when women were fifst allowed to think. A woman ought not_to be able to read or write or think. She ought to be kept in a harem seeing only the one man Providence has vouchsafed her. As long as the present customs con- tinue women are going to presume to have ideas, and just the minute a woman begins to have ideas her power of being contented in the feminine sphere is gone forever.” “Well, for my part,” said Mrs. Fin de Stecle, serene in the consciousness of th softening effect of rosy lamp light, “IT have no quarrel with the fates that made me a woman. I think most of this talk about thi woes of women Is nonsense. If the woman in the verse had to go out in the world a bit and earn her own living, I think you'd hear nothing more from her. She is dis- contented simply because she has too easy a time. There are women in this worid who ought to be whipped — yes, actually whipped—once fortnight. They'd love their husbands all the better for doing it, too, for if a man wants to make his wife adore him just let him abuse her a bit.” } oti “Well, did T ever!’ said the Congress- man's wife. “And efter the things you've said to me. “My dear, I change my mind as often as I change my gown. I want to get my mind evenly worn, you know.” Congrese- you. “You are frivolous said the man’s wife, rising, “and I spurn have some shopping to do, anyway, they do say you can get the loveliest dress goods at Blank’s—so reasonable, too, Come with me, dear Miss West End, do.” elon catia SALES TO ENLISTED MEN.
