Prove (From a Staft Correspondent.) WASHINGTON, Oct. 13. — (8pecial) — President Roosevelt {s gaining in popu larity in the southern states. He has made few appointments thus far, but those which he has made have given general satisfaction to the people of the south? and they have served to increase the regard in which he has always been held. This Is not to be understood as an assertion that he is gain- ing in political strength in the reglon south of Magon and Dixon's line. On the con- trary, the residents of the region which once desired to separate {tself from the union are not disposed to change their party | alleglance because of personal feelings of regard for any man. thing more than that to bring about a political revolution. But personally and as a man Theodore Roosevelt has won a place for himself in the hearts of the south- ern people which will increase the chance of entlrely eliminating the sectional feel- ing which has been so manifest during the last thirty years. W. G. Sterett, one of the editors of the Galveston-Dallas News, has been In Wash- ington the last few days. Sterett was a Washington correspondent for several years. He knew Mr. Roosevelt as civil service commissioner and as assistant secretary of the navy. “In my editorial capacity,” eaid Mr. Sterett, “I read con- scientiously nearly 1,000 Texas newspapers I read them to get the drift of political sentiment throughout our state. I have been astonished at the unanimous commendation of President Roosevelt in the press of Texas. Nearly all these news- papers are of the democratio faith, yet I do not recall a aingle editorial upon the sub- ject of the administration but has been friendly and even eulogistic of President Roosevelt. He Is a virile, vigorous Amer- fean and just the sort of man that the peo- ple of our section admire. I do not wish to be understood as intimating that there Is the faintest chance of the state of Texas ever swinging Itself into the republican column, but if Theodore Roosevelt should announce himself a democrat and a candi- date for the democratic nomination for the presidency in 1904 I firmly believe that he 1t will take some- | would receive the vote of every delegate to the convention." Del ons of the Pan-American. Some of the deluded people who went to Buffalo last spring in the hope of making a fortune are coming back with tales of woe. One of these appeared In Washington this morning. His story was pathetic. *I had succeeded in building up a nice little hotel business in my home,” he said, “‘and last winter I got a chance to sell out. I cleaned up $5,000 and decided to go to Buffalo, against the advice of my wife. With a part- ner T invested $6,500 in a hotel there. We had to pay rent and license in advance. Our prospects looked bright until we started. Then a few friends from my old home and my partner's old home came to see us They stayed a few days and went home and sent a few more. Then came dullness and depression. For four or five months busi- ness went from bad to worse. We dis- charged the servants one after the other and at ldst even the barkeeper had to go. Last Saturday my partner and I spent the entire day playing ‘seven up' together and during that entire day our receipts were exactly two bits, 25 cents or a quarter of & dollar. On Sunday we ‘took In' 40 cents. On Monday 1 telegraphed my wife to send me money enough to get home with, and here I am. If I ever get $5,000 again I will listen to my wife—unless she goes crazy and urges me to go to St. Louls, Charles- ton or some other town where a world's tair is to be held.” Civil Service on Rural Routes, Tt {8 probable that Postmaster General Smith would like to have the rural free delivery service placed under the Civil Service commission, at least to the extent of permitting that bureau to designate the The rural free delivery service was originally organized with two or three clerks and a | stenographer. Then the appropriation was something like $150,000. Today there are upwards of 30 clerks and a score or more | of stenographers. The funds available for the current fiscal year are upwards of $3,000,000. The enormous growth of this branch of the Postoffice department during the last four years has Increased the cares of the postmaster general many fold. | ‘There is scarcely a representative or a senator in congress who has not anywhere from one to a score of conmstituents who are anxious to enter the government serv- | | ice through the rural free delivery bureau |and they are persistent and insistent in urging the claims of their friends. Of course not one In ten can be provided for, but that makes no difference to the con- gressmen., They always visit the Post- office department when they come to Wash- ington and nearly half the time of the head of the department is taken up listen- ing to the appeals of those seeking places, th' C class of one little red schoolhouse played th' C class of another, but it's different now.

Chamberlin's [ 1s no more. Years ago John Chamberlin | came here from northern New York and | opened a clubhouse. It soon became the gathering place for all the bon vivants of the country. “Old Johu' was a genial host and his patrons included statesmen and jurists of national renown, as well as poli- ticlans and lesser lights of all degrees. The last location of “Chamberlin's” was at the corner of Fifteenth and I streets and its walls were literally covered with portraits of men of distinction. Presidents and cabinet officers, generals of the army, admirals of the navy, senators and repre- sentatives by the score and hundreds of other “good fellows,” some dead and others still among the living, sent their photo- graphs, framed and signed, to be added to the gallery. It is doubtful if there is in the country such amother collection of “autographed” portraits of men prominent in the country's history during the last quarter century. Chamberlin died a few years ago, since that event the patronage of the house has gradually fallen away. Last winter it fell to the minimum.
