Tue STATELY PRESIDENT DANCES AT Tue First Inaucurat Batt, Mrs. Burton Harrison shows, in an article on ‘“‘With Washington in the Minuet,’ that the ‘‘father of his country’ was fond of dancing, not giving up the pastime until some time after he had retired to private life. Describing the first inaugural ball at New York, in May, 1789, Mre. Harrison pictures the suspense awaiting Washington’s selec- tion of a partner for the minuet, each belle earnestly hoping that the honor should come to her. The chief, how- ever, made his choice without a se cond’s hesitation, and appeard “‘leade ing up to the disk of shining parquetry, a sweet and ingenuous ycung matron —the bride of a year, Mrs. Maxwell, born 2 Van Zandt, daughter of Jacobus Van Zandt, chairman of the so-called Revolutionary Committee of Patriots in New York. And now, under the; gaze of dowagers and belles, envious! in spite of themselves of young Mis- tress Maxwell’s luck, Washington. lay- ing his right hand on his heart. exe- cutes.a profound bow to his partner, she blushing like a very rose of spring. Mrs. Maxwell, in return, dips low till her satin skirts form a portentous ,cheese’; then recovering her balance, places her little gioved hand in the capacious one of the ehief, who, rais- ing it above her head, takes the first steps in the prim but graceful old dance. From long practice, ana through the continual use of his muscles the hero's great frame is surprisingly pliant in the repeated bows and chang - es of posture demanded by the minuet. His feet retain something of the arch of youth as he directs them with pre- cision through the figures that allow no deviation of a dancer’s fancy, but must be carried out tothe end hke a mathematical problem in order to in- suresuccess. A murmur of applause runs around the circle of ‘elegant fem- ales, who follow him rather than his partner, inthe slow windings and step- ping of this intricate evolution. SCHOOL CLIQUES. For over tw -nty-five years THE BEE has endeavored to break up schoo cliques and it is believed it has suc ceeded. Formerly only the favorite few could be appointed in the schools. It would be surprising to the people to know the high handed methods that have been resorted to by former school trustees. Deserving and competent young girls from our home schools have been ignored and the favorite society girls, have been appointed re- gardless of their competency. Inthe present regeme trustees Brown, Rich- ardson, and Mrs. Terrell have made it a point to appoint home teachers.

A TRUE AND LOYAL LEADER OF THE PEOPLE.—THE COLORED MAN $ _ FRIEND.—A LAWVER, SOLDIER AND STATESMAN. Among the many representatives In Congress from the State of Iowa, esas no man better ie to es people and the people of this country than Hon. John Pletcher Lacey, of Oskaloosa, Towa, who was born at New Martinville, Va., (now West Vir- ginia,) Way 30, 1841. Mr. Lacey moved John Fietcher Lacy, of Oskaloosa, was born at New Martinsville, Va. (now West Va,), May 30, 1841; removed to Jowa in 1855; received a com- mon school and academic education, enlisted in Company H, Third Iowa Infantry, in May, 1861, and afterwards | served as a private in Company D, Thirty-third lowa Infantry, as ser geant-major, and as lieutenant in Company C of that regiment. was promoted to assistant adjutant-general | on the staff of Brig, Gen.

Frederick Steele; | served in lowa legislature one term, | in 1870; is a lawyer and author of Lacey’s Railway Digest and Lacey’s lowa Digest; was a member of the Fifty-first, Fifty-third, and Fitty-fourth Congresses and was reelected to the Fifty-fifth Congress asa Republican, | receiving 21,970 votes, against 20,769 | votes for Freuerick E. White, Demo-} cratic Populist fusion nominee, and 268 votes for Abner Branson, Prohi-; bitionist. There is no man in Congress who has, in such a short a period won the hon ors that Congressman Lacey has. AS A SOLDIER he has displayed his valor on more than on one occasion. He was not too proud to work. Like the Cincinnatus he followed the plow and when his coun- to obey the call and the representa- tive places to which he was called to fill will convince any one that his’ peo- ple were proud of him and honored him.

One of The Ancient Tramp put on an over| the best known business houses in the THE BLACK MAN'S FRIEND. He was the first white republican from Oskaloosa to recognize the merits of thenegro. Whenever a man white or black proved himself capablé and deserving of recognition he will recognize him. He has now at the Capitol of this city, a colored citizen of his district and he is doing all in his power now to obtain recognition for worthy representative colored citizens who live in his district. The BEE is con fident that as soon as the civil service law is amended or repealed where- by worthy republicans will be recog- nized, the black man will get his share. A prominent colored citizen of lowa, who resides in this city, informs The Bre that Mr. Lacey's house is always opened to his constituents, white and black and that his amiable wife is as much loved as he is by the colored peo- ple in his state, because she is a noble woman who recognizes all men as equal before the law: These are the kind of men the col- ored man should support. They de- served to be supported, they are en- titled to ail the good that can be said of them. Mr. Lacey represents the Sixth district with a population of 155,354 and itis quite evident that a man with his record, with the confi- dence and respect of the people will continue to be their chojce. Heisa true and loyal leader of the people; the colored man’s friend, a tarmer, soldier and statesman. HOW'S THIS!

Tue MoTHeER-IN-Law SHOULD BE TREATED WitTH SPECIAL DEFERENCE. “Bear anything before you permit yourself to complain to your husband of his mother’s faults’ writes Mrs, Burton Kingsland on ‘The Duty of the Daughter-in-Law”’ in the Febuary Ladie’s Home Journal. ‘‘Say to your own soul, May God do so to Me, and more also, if | ever do anything to rob a mother ofa fraction of her child’s love. The sturdy toddler at your side may make you a mother-in-law some day, and as you sow now so you will reap. Should you ever find it neces- sary to break through your rule of ence never speak while ander irritation. “Few attentions will please her more than to seek her to tell any bit of news that you may have heard. Aside from the fact that the average old person feels lively interest in the affairs of friends and neighbors, she will value, more than ail, the implied wish for her sympathy in seeking her to share your oudget. Treat her with special honor and deference in the presence of your servants, your children and your |. friends. Their conduct will be mod- eled after your example. Inimagina- tion, put yourself often in her place. It. will help you to be fair and kind. In you have already had unpleasant experience of your mother-in-law’s presence in your home, ifher peculiar- ities grate upon you, if she is intrusive, apt to interfere with your management of children or household, I can only repeat the same formula—‘ Make her love you” It may savor of the old copy-book rrecet, Be good and will be happy,’ but to overcome evil with good is the divine prescription, and nothing can long resist Christlike methods. At least, the experiment is well worth the trial.” W. A. Gaines will get a plum. i Judson Lyons will be recognized, Something will fall in a few days.

A CONSPIRACY AGAINST DEMAS, TrEcHERY OF THE LousIANaA LiLy Wuirres.—SHatt A Necro Be AL- Lewrp To Exercise His PorrricaL PEROGATIVE? There are inthis city certain white and black lily white republicans from the State of Luusiana, opposing the confirmation of Ex4Senator Henry Dumas. Their pretex is that Mr. De- mas broke faith with the combine, when their real opposition to him is on account of his celor. A represent- ative of the THE BEE overheard a conversation, a few weeks ago between two colored men from the State of Lousiana, that took place in a_ bar room, to the effect ‘“‘we must down these black niggers’’ who seem to be h getting all the best offices in the State. The individual who gave utterance to this declaration has been in this city some time looking for an office and it is not hkly that he will get one. Mr. Demas was a strong McKinly man du- ring the contest for delegates in the State of Lousiana, and every effort was made, to those who pretended to be with the combine, to githim to change, but he refusd. It is nothing more than aconspiracy on the part of the lily white republicans who have been de- feated in the State to influence the Senate Committee to make an adverse report on his nomination. $100 REWARD froo.

Hall’s Catarrh cure is the only positive cure known to the medical fraternity. Catarrh being a constitutional disease, requires a con- stitutional treatment. Hall’s Catarrh cure is taken internally, acting direct- ly upon the blood and mucous surfaces ofthe system, thereby destroying the foundation of the disease, and giving the patent strengtt by building up the constitution and assisting nature in doing its work, The proprietors have so much faith in its curative powers that they offer One Hundred Dollars for any case that it fails to cure.
