who have applied to judge Purnell, un
der habeas corpus proceedings, to put
their case in the federal court. The
swindlers hare no case. This fact Is
well understood here. They deserve

indeed much more, such is the publio
Idea, freely expressed.

WASHINGTON LETTER
' ;r;.. . 8McUl 'correspondence.
Ex-Seaator Chandler bas had designs
prepared for a bandsome silver cigar
box, and the valuable souvenir Is now
being manufactured. Upon the Ud of
the receptacle are these words: "Which
we pledge ourselves to promote." And
thereby bangs an Interesting story.
After the St. Louis convention of
1890 Senator Chandler offered to glvo
f 100 to the man who wrote In the bi
metallic plank of tbe national platform
of that year the words jpst quoted.
Everybody knows that Senator Chan
dler la a blmctallist of the most devot
edTtype, and he welcomed the pledge of
the parity to promote bimetallism as a
promise of the realization of his ideal.
Well, after he had mado his offer there
were numerous candidates for the
award. Among others Mr. D. K. Wat
son, then a member of congress from
Ohio, claimed the honor, and Mr. Chan
dler entered Into a long and serious cor
respondence with him on the subject
Finally, however, Senator Lodge of
Massachusetts appeared as the author
of the phrase, and his Claim was sub
stantiated by the original documents,
which were produced by Senator For
aker, the chairman of the committee on
resolutions. Upon a telegraph blank
in Senator Lodge's own haudwrltlng
were the words upon which Mr. Chan
dler bad laid so much stress.
Convinced as to the authorship, Sen
ator Chandler promptly sent his check
for $100 to Senator Lodge. This was
only n short while ago. Mr. Lodge
at once returned the check, saying that
be had not regarded the offer as seri
ous. Mr. Chandler, nowever, insistea
that be acted In geed fuith, and then
Mr. Lodge, returning the check a sec
ond time, replied that if Mr. Chandler
wanted to give him a souvenir of the
convention and its bimetallic utterance
ho would lie pleased to accept It
Thereupon Mr. Chandler had the silver
cigar box prepared. It Is composed of
Eixteen parts silver to one part of gold,
Is handsomely designed and appropri
ately Inscribed. Its presentation Is to
be quite an event.
Everybody Ought to Know Illm.
One of the correspondents of a New
York paper had a fuuuy experience the
other night. Into his office walked a
congressman and the 'atter's secre
tary.
'I want to Introduce my secretary,
Mr. Johnson," said the representative.
The correspondent acknowledged the
Introduction and shook hands.
'You see," said the congressman, "I
thought it would be a good Idea for
yoi' to know my secretary, lou may
want to write some pieces about me,
and he can give you all tho facts.
Don't hesitate to call upon hlm nt any
time. I would like you to- print my
name lust as often as you can, so that
my constituents may know that I am
busy looking after them."
And after more words to the same
effect tho congressman and his secre
tary withdrew. The joke of the matter
was that the correspondent had never
seen the representative before, did not
know bis name and hasn't to this day
the slightest Idea who called upon blm.
Tbe congressman slmuly took It for
granted that a man who had been
elected from New York must be
known to all tbe world.
The Colonel Took Pie.
One of tbo campaign tories that is
floating through tbo senate cloakroom
relates to Scuntor Fairbanks of Indi
ana and Governor Shaw of Iowa. Ac
cording to tbe story, these two Repub
lican orators were stumping Kentucky.
After a successful meeting the Ken
tucky colonel who had the two Repub
lican statesmen In charge invited tbem
Into the hotel barroom for some re
freshment "Whnt'll you haver", he asked Sena
tor Fairbanks.
"A little cold opolllnarls," was the
reply.
"And yrU'r" said tbe host to Govern
or Shew.
"I think I will have a glass of but-
tennUk."
Tbe barkeeper turned to the Ken-
tocklan. "What shall I give you, colo
nel?" be asked.
The Kentucky gentleman heaved a
long sigh. "Under tbe circumstances,"
he said, 1 think yon can give mo s
piece of pie.", -.... 4

When he pushes through tbe old
time doublo doors from tbe corridor to
tbe committee on appropriations, there
Is no prouder man these days under
the white dome than "Uncle Joe" Can
non, tbe chairman. A scene almost pa
latial Is spread before1 blm.; There Is
nice clesn furniture all around aim
and a now carpet on tbe floor. On ei
ther side there open swinging portals
of mahogany and glass that lead to
cosy consultation rooms, long needed.
- "I tell yon, boys," said Mr. Cannon
the other day when somebody joked
htm about bis Improved quarters, "yon
moat put bear's grease on your ban:
and some scent on your handkerchief
before yon enter." ,. , .
