The Washington correspondent of the New York Sun says: The conference of democratic leaders gatherod here from a number cf states for the last week have had in view the vatal necessity of placing the adminlstration on a line of policy which cannot be better deecribed than by saying that 1t Is tho same as has boen steadily advocated by the Sun. The president has been kindly and plaiuly told that on no other can_ his adminietra- tlon hope for success, and that by going nentatives of the democratic sentiment of parting of the ways. In these conferences snch democratic leaders as Randall, Barnum, Smalley, Beck, Voorhees, Payne and others have taken a prominent part. Mr. Randall's ricovory so far as to ablo to bo active was the signal for a comparison of views. The sdminfstration, they hold, must be demooratic or mugwump, If it is to be demoocratic it must tako mora distinctly the line indicated by Secrotary Manning’s action rather than that of the president’s. Ttis one thiog to have demoorats ap- pointed to cfll:e, but another to have democrats appolnted in accordance with the wishes of those democrats to whom the party, 1f it ts to prospor, must look to fight its battles in the future. If there is to be no mletake about the grounds of pres- ent expectations, the latter idea is to pro- vail, and the mugwumps will have to be content with what they have got or will got hereafter only by common consent. 1t can be distinctly aseerted that by the leaders of the party who ere active in their efforts to place the adminlstration on the line of safety, the wisdom of the San’s views and counsels Is fully recog- nized. On that line alone can succees be expected. A short time will show how well founded sre these expectations. ——p—— Pleasures of Travel in Montana, “I will never forget an experionce cf mine In Mcntana a little over two years ago,” said Brakeman Schultz, of the Northern Pacific, to a reporter of the St. Paul Globe. ¢, There wero Andrews, the conductor; Wyley, the engineer; Colby, the fire- man, and wyself, running No. 3 passen- ger on the Montana divisicn, and one night abont duek we wero get- ting out of Miles City when a red Mme, Judic is fair, fat aud nearly forty. | bouglit from the Union Pacific company some S e il howpy. | months ago, and which lies sonth of Chey- Roee Bonbeur s over sixty and atill happy. | (Llu Mg Ganticmen to whom they will sell Otcar Wilde continues to bo a clothes ob- | (b are O, 15, Carlatrom, A, 1.

AccorpiNg to & carefully prepared table of bullding statlstics of sixty citles for the year 1884, Omaba with §4,107,- 400 expended in buildings alone stands sixth in the list. The only citles that are ahead of her are Chicago, 8t. Louis, St. Paul, Minneapolis and Kaneas City. This e an excellent showing, and it will naturally attract attention everywhere.

Gen, Bherman’s Economies. Washington Correspondence New York World. 1 heard of a pecullarity of Gen, Sher- man the other day which should be noted by those who are to write bis future his- tory. The general Is very fond of good whisky, When he was on the active list every morning before he started out for the war department he used to stop atthe bar just above Willard's hotel for a morn- ing drink. In Washington a single drink of whisky is fifteen cents, Two drinks are glven for a quarter. Van Vliet, wheu he was quartermaster general, used to start out with Sherman at the eame time #o that they could take their morn- ing drink together. They lived mext door t> each other, and 1hrough this ar— rangement of etarting out together they were able to: save two certs and a half upon cach of thelr morning drinks. Sherman would pay ons day and Van Vliet another, There was always a dizputs betmeen them as t) who should pay, each Inslsting that he hod paid upon the day previous, (aca- sionally Sherman would come in alone, heviog missed Van Viiet. Then a funny Little comedy would always ensue. 'The of tha United States, sfter having tossed off four or five fingirs, would begin to famble in his waistcoat; then he would soy; *‘1 have changed my waistcoat this morn- ing. I have no change.” He would next say: “Chalk it dawn and 1 will pay you to-morrow morning.” The next day he wu;ld come in for his mornivg drink an then put down a quarter in satisfaction for the two arinks, the owner of the bar eald he was never able to get whisky a] a low enough wholesalo rate to get his money back out of Sherman. Up near the war depart. ment was another restaurant, This was a milltary resort, chlefly patronized by officers of the army and the officlals of the war depsrtment. General Sherman's lunch here was a big drink of etralght whisky, He would come over abont 11 o clock and call for his epeclal bottle. He would pour outa drink, and then would lay down ten cents and walk out, He was the only patron of the restaurant who got his drink for this price, The generol of the army used to be just as economical in his smoking. He would | never buy clgers for his own use that cost more than $2.50 a hundred, —— Old Time Railroaders, Indianapolis Journal, The mentloning of the fast time made over the Bee Line under the presidency of John Brough recalls numerous inci- dents to old time railroaders, On one ocoasion he called his master mechanics “I will glve you & week to put two engines,” calllng them by name, *‘in ehape to haul those trains through on time after that date, If they do not do it, I shall dp- mand your resignation,” Another time he had concelved the ilea that one of the englneers was timid; he called bim into his office and sald, ‘‘John, if you want £ stay on this road yon must bring that traln in on time hereafter,” The englneer spoke of the condition of the track as belog upsafe for 5o high speed, President Brough, with an oath, sald: **Bring your traln in on time or you ditch her.” At one time the Little Miam! run in connection with the Bes line, between Columbus snd Cisclonatl, the foramer wrote Mr, Brough that the Kuun ers were complatning of the higl .p..fi at light was seen by the engineer and he stopped the train, Just as it stoppsd about a dozen cowboys togged up in tull uniform, each with a brace of revolvera in his belt, got into the coaches, while a few more guarded the eng'ne. Iknew trouble was coming s soon as Isaw them get on, and took a seat among the passengers. The conductor did not appear at first to realize that anything was wrong, but weat to the forward part of the coach to sce what was up when half a dozen of the buckskin clad boys grabbed him and set him upon the coal box. He protested, but the boys pald no attentlon, other than to tell him not to move a finger as they wero going to ehoot the heels of his boots off. though laid mighty close, fearirg that 1 would be noticed; but they didn’c before the conductor was short the heels of his boots, He was white #s a snow flake, fearlng a miscalcnlated shot. They then cavght me and tied me to a pasmenger, back to back, and sst us over a seat and then commenced betting among them- soives which would pull the other over. The stakes were put up and then two of them got progs and began touching us up with them. The fellow I had pltted egainst me was a Swede aud neither of us had any ehow to pull the other over, then I resorted to stratigem, and when they gave the Swede a prig and he jumped sbouta foot, I pulled hird and he came flying over the seat, and he went 6o far over that he ncarly broke my back. Wo were loosened then, and they took the Swede's boots off and stood him on hls head, and then played the bastinado on the soles of his fect. Well, you'd &' died laughivg to hear that poor fellow bellow,entreat, pray aud cuss thoss cowboys, and although 1wy legs were smarting from soms lances 1 got, | just roared. After they thought they had done enough mischisf they shot out the lights and left the train, firing a ea- luto 2a they departed. Not many of the boys know about it, for the conductor paid the Swede a §b bill to keep quiet, and he set ’em up to me protty lively alt along the line.” —— Boss of the Situation. Chicago Tribune.
