Commenting ypon the fact that representatives had tp go through a lot of red tape to see and talk about a particular Job, one of them suggested that the Presi- dent ought to have,, “Taken” printed on cards and put on the jpbs.which were prom- ised. Then the other remarked that “Take One” would be a good;sign for the jobs not disposed of. A facetious man standing near thought that a good.thing on days when lots of places.were te .ke:given out would be this, signed by the President: “This on me. Help yourself.” The unanimous opin- ion was that cards of the kind described would greatly facilitate the business of dis- pensing places. Senator Proctor is one of the most pro- foundly polite and pleasant men in public Ife, and many give this as a reason for his success, especially in securing places for constituents. Senator Proctor is the prince of politeness. Should the humblest man meet and salute the Vermont Senator by raising his hat, Senator Proctor will re- spond by raising his. “His high standing with President McKinley is due to the high respect and esteem entertained for him by the President. Senator ‘Proctor se- cures more good positions fer constituents than almost any other man in public life: It is said of him that, ‘although a stanch republican, he could get more offices under a democratic administration than any other senator, democrats not excluded. This was, of course, due to his popularity, together with his knowledge of just when and how to go to work to get what he wanted. President Cleveland regarded Senator Proc- tor as one of the ablest men in public life. Newspaper men are just beginning to size up the members of the cabinet—that 1s, looking at them from their value to the newsgathering profession. As a rule mem- bers of the cabinet are reticent in answer- ing the questions of reporters, even if the personal relations are pleasant. Secretary Alger ts looked upon as a “good man” by the newspaper men. He willingly gives what news can be legitimately given out. He does not regard every little thing us a matter which ought te be kept a pro- found secret. Matters.of deep importance, which rightfully ought not to be made pub- lec, he discreetiy keeps to himself, but those things which hurt-nobody to be made public he doesn’t hesitate to announce. He gives close attention to the queries of news- paper men, and talks pleasantly with them on all occasions. Secretary Gage has the happy faculty of “never knowing any- thing,” to hear him answer a general ques- tion, but he frankly answers all questions put to him, evading nothing. He says that £0 far as he is concerned, he is willing that cabinet meetings shall be open and attend- ed by newspaper men. Attorney General McKenna is also a frank man, answering, without evas:on, all questions, no matter how pointed. He is not, however, a good man to voluntarily give out news. It has to be adroitly gotien from him. Secretary Sherman has for years been an enigma to many men in the profession. _ Sometimes he is the best kind of a subject and again he is as uncommunicative as an oyster. Secretary Wilson stands Well with the newspaper men, Secretary Long, Secretary Bliss and Postmaster General Gary are be- coming better acquainted with the news- gatherers and are beginning to trust them by talking as freely as is consistent with public duty. Altogether the cabinet prom- ises to have the individual newspaper men tied to it by strings of respect and esteem. It is the new representative who is now amusing the profession, He comes to Wastington with an enlarged idea of his importance. He goes to the White House to ask that Jim Smith be appointed a consul at some distant and unimportant point. He sees the President and starts out with an air of mystery surrounding him. Approached on the subject of the ambition of his constituent he politely de- clines to talk, at the same time looking wise ard appearing to be carrying an Im- mense secret. This tickles the newspaper men, who have for years been accustomed to talking freely with the most prominent men of the country. As.@ rule. public men talk more frankly to reporters than the unofficial citizen. They often say things which must not be py |, but they leave this to the discretion of the man they are talking to. A camera fiend was at the White House the other day waiting for prominent men to arrive, so as to catch snap shots. He was watching every opportunity. A car- riage drove up with a man of a somewhat distinguished air, but totally unknewn to any cne at the building. “That's Secre- tary Alger,” whispered a joker to the camera citizen.. Instantly the possessor of the instrument was bustling around, and at the first favorable opportunity turned his machine loose on the unoffending citi- zen, who did not know what to make of the perfcrmance. W. A. Stone and C. W. Stone, among the leading members of the House from Pennsylvania, and well known throughout the country, frequently have trouble over the similarity of their names. Not long ago C. W. Stone presided over a session of the House. The session was a somewhat hot cre, and Mr. Stone was called upon to make a number of rulings of an interest- ing and debatable nature. Shortly after- ward W. A. Stone received a large number of letters froin different parts of the coun- try, some sustaining ‘and others criticising his positions. This is one of many funny mistakes made because the two men are mixed in the mind of the public. The Indians who were at the White House a few days ago in the interest of a man as Indian agent were commented up- on by the assembled politicians as unfor- tunate in entering the field of politics in- Stead of staying at thelr homes and at- terding to matters there. “Oh, well.” said a witty fellow, “let them ‘alone. ‘There is no danger of their getting anything. You know they can't vote.” Se WASHINGTON’S CHIEF OF POLICE. A Compliment P: to Major Moore. From the Pittsburg Chronicle-Telegraph. Arrangements are well ‘nijer way for the annual convention of the National Asso- ciation of Chiefs of Police of the United States and Canadu, to be held in Pittsburg, ccmmencing Tuesday next, and continuing throughout the week. After the business of the conveniion sev- eral days will be spent in sight-seeing. The visitors will be given a river excursion and a trip to the Edgar Thomson steel works at Braddock. Another day will be spent at Creighton, where the strangers will be given a chance to see the makin® of plate glass, etc. Other features will be trolley rides, excursions and drives to the parks and a grand banquet at one of the ‘eading hotels will wind up the festivities. Hardly a day passes that Superintendent O'Mara does not receive several letters of acceptance from the varicus police cfficials high up in authority thfoughoat the coun- try. One of the most notable who has given his word to be ®n“hand is Maj. Wil- lam G. Moore, superingendent of the Wash- ington police, who has guarded the Presi- dents of the United States, and who was at the head of-the police department when Coxey and his army Were\Torced to give up their position in front of the Capitol. The high efficiency, of the Wasningion Police force, which it on an equal footing with the best systems of Europe and America, is largely’'due to the suc- cessful and _ untiring efforts of its present execueive, Maj. William 'G, Moore. More than ordinary qualifications are required of the official who oceupigs this important station at the capitalgof the United States. He must not only Prepared to handle without friction or confusion the enormous inaugural and other gatherings which there congregate, care for the>valuable govern= ment workshops and their contents, pre- serve the peace, and detect and suppress. crime, but he must also possess the skill of a well-trained diplomat. The superin- tendent of the Washingten force has re- sponsibilities which extend from the Execu- tive Mansion to the most’ humble legation, and the pecullar laws relating to interna- tional questions require delicacy of action on his part. Maj. Moore is a native of the celty in which he matrains peace and quiet. In 1896, when he w; ippoinred superin- terdent of, police, hig extensive experience as a disciplinarian in military circles at once made him a success in bringing about system and unison. and nie circles of the District: highly esteemed, end there ls'no, one more ; e around whom cluster more interesting toric associations. ¢ SIDEWALK SKETCHES The “little German band” that perambu- lates around Washington, murdering melo- dy and torturing time, wandered up 12th street the other afternoon, stopping at in- tervals to emit a few lachrymose toots and catch the fleeting nickel. Few substantiai returns awarded its efforts, however, and its members were straggled out in a dismal Procession as they turned into New York avenue. The leader spied a saloon, and, marshaling his host in front of it, began to play “Maryland, My Maryland,” in plaintive dead march measure. When the agony was concluded the leader entered the saloon to seek reward. The proprietor’s eyes twinkled_merrily and, in German, he invited the man to bring his companions in and get beer: The band filed in and quaffed their liquor eagerly. Then the} went ou! and in another migute the air of a lively Strauss waltz was heard being rendered with much enthusiasm. “I knowed id,” said the proprietor. “I neffer see dem Sherman bant blayin’ shlow moosic bud whad peer maig ’em striig ub lifely.” xe KKK Some men, and nowadays they are most- ly bicyclists, are born lucky. One after- noon recently a middle-aged man, wearing a Prince Albert coat, but, nevertheles: astride of a bicycle, came riding down ‘th street to the avenue. A small boy, also on a wheel, turned from the latter thorough- fare up 9th street. An electric car was on the east track and a crockery-laden wagon close beside it. The man and the boy both turned in close to the curb and together they came. The cellar doors of Scheller & Stevens’ drug store, solid iron affairs, were open and braced up. In the cellar directly under them was a water barrel with aepair of shafts attached to ft and extending braces of iron sticking out in various di- rections. The cellar is ten or twelve feet deep. By some wonderful means the col- lision caused the man to shoot over one of the cellar doors and go head first into the opening. Mr. Scheller, Mr. Stevens, Mr. Barrett and a Star reperter rushed out to bring up the man and send him to the Emergency. By the time they reached the opening the man was climbing out. He didn’t have a bruise or a scratch. He climbed down into the cellar again to get his hat, brushed it off, filliped some dirt from his Prince Albert, and, mounting his. wheel, rode off unconcernedly, merely remarking: “It was the boy's fault.” Now the question is, how was that man born to die? * * * * The center of the sidewalk stretching up the steep hill from E to F street on 13th street northwest is a smooth sheet of granolithic. Two bright-eyed, wide-awake little boys were coasting down it yester- day at almost lightning speed, setting the nerves of passersby a-teetering. They were not on bicycles or in wagons. Each boy had a roller skate strapped securely to his right foot, and on this precarious perch went skimming down the incline time and again. Dangerous? Hoo! not a bit! Why, it’s fun, mister! ee KK This is another sketch about a boy and wheels, but there is a dog in it, too. A Postal Telegraph messenger was riding up Rhode Island avenue, near its junction with Connecticut, at a rate of speed which indicated that he had no iessages to de- liver, but was merely on pleasure bent. His head was down, his back was bent and his legs were working like an amateur Zim- merman’s. As he was thus scorching a }small dog had business across the avenue and started across to transact it. In an in- stant the atmosphere just above the asphi was filled with boy, bicycle, dog and yelps. Then the combination separated. The boy, who had fallen on his right shoulder, tur: ed a half handspring and caught his ma- chine, jumping on it as though he was accustomed to such things and riding off as if to make up lost time. The dog ran around in a series of lessening circles with howls of pain and then sidled off to the parking and sat down on its haunches to consider what had happened. An old col- ored man, sitting on an ash cart, gathered up his reins and chuckled. “Well, I'll be dawggoue,” he ejaculated. “Geeup.” Le The electric car stopped at 9th and F streets. “One moment, please,” said the conduc- tor, waving back a crowd that wanted to get aboard. A pudgy, red-faced womaa, with wrinkles in her neck, came forward regardless and started to climb on. Another pudgy woman at that moment started to get off. The first pudgy woman squeezed up the step and the other pudgy woman squeezed down. She had one of these metal-ornamented bags hung at her waist and the metal was Uroken and a sharp end stuck out. It caught in the skirt of the pudzy woman who was getting on. The latter squeezed up and the other squeezed down. There was 4 sound cf ripping grenadine. The pudgy woman with the bag at her wuist rushed to catch a 9th street car. The pudgy woman with the grenadine dress flounced into a corner seat in the F street car and borrowed pins from the colored woman opposite and the conductor. “I never see such imperlite folks in my life as them what ride on street cyars,” she remarked, with a glare. And the conductor took her transfer and agreed with her—under his breath; ——>—__ ZACHARY TAYLOR'S FACE. It Looked on Grant Day as It Looked When He Died. From the New York Sun. Tuesday, while New Yorkers were doing honor to the memory of Gen. Grant, a small group of friends of another Presi- dent went to his tomb to look at his sturdy face and recall the stories of his stirring life, which went out almost half a century ago. The few friends surrounded the mod- est tomb of old Rough and Ready Taylor in a graveyard scarcely a stone’s throw be- yond the limits of Louisville, Ky. Accom- panied by a Louisville undertaker, they were making their armual visit to the tomb to inspect the metallic case to see that every joint was sealed so as to prevent the air from entering. The glass covering the face of the dead executive is always exposed at these times. The face was wonderfully preserved, and the features looked, but for a few wrinkles, just as they did forty-seven years ago. The face was as white as marble, and every- thing about the body seemed to be un- changed and perfectly preserved. The Taylor family burial ground is two miles northeast of St. Mathew’s, a suburb of Louisville, on the Short Line railroad. Probably, with the one exception of the vault of the first President at Mt. Vernon, none of the executives of the United States les in a more beautiful spot than does Gen. Zachary Taylor. The burial ground is within 300 yards of the old Taylor homestead. It is within 200 yards of the Brownsboro pike, and occu- Pies exactly an acre. It slopes to the east, and is surrounded by a five-foot wall of stone. This wall has stood for many years, but not a sign of decay or carelessness in its keeping can be seen. It stands solid and firm, and gives promise of standing for a century yet. Just to the east of the entrance is the vault which contains the body of the ex- President. It is one of those old-fash- ioned, plain vaults, which are now seldom seen. A covering of myrtle keeps it green the year around. Sloping toward the road, the vault can easily seen by travelers. The plain, solid iron door has no inscription, but on a marble slab above the door are the words: ZACHARY TAYLOR. Born November 24, 1786. Died July 9, 1850. ———_e. —_____ Coffins at Wholesale.
