WASHINGTON LETTER.
ed
(From our Regular Correspondent. }
Wasuinaton, D. ©. Jan 18, 98.
If silver forces of the cotntry
are throughly united. they can
win. That has been admitted by
anti silver men. If the silver
forces are not united, it will not
be the fault of the men who are
at the head of the National Com-
mittees of the three parties which
advotated the free coinage of
silyer in the last National cam-
paign. As a result of a number of
conferences between Chairman
Jones, of the Democratic Nation-
al Committee; Chairman Butler,
of the Populist Nationai Commit-
tee, and Chairman 'lowne, of the
silver Republican National
Committee, a jcint address to the
friends of silver has been prepar-
ed and will be widely cirrulated,
with a view to securing coopera-
tive action in every Congressional
Districtin which there are ergan-
izations of two or more of these
parties, in this yearTs campaign.
In other words, the object is to
secure the election of a silver
yepresentativo in every Congres-
sional distr which has a
majority of silver voters. Ifthe
spirit of this afldress is accepted
and put into practical effect by
the voters, there is no doubt that
e majority of the next House will
be silyer men.

mittee, ali of thom with one ten-
dency"an effort to make it appear
that a plot existed to elect an
anti silver Chairman of this
Committee. Such talk was, of
course, ridiculons to these who
knew thefacts, although it may
have guiled some others. There
bas been no plot and the method
by which members ofthe Com-
mittee are sclected are such that
any plct would he next to impos-
sible. With the exception of a
member from Tennessee,all of the
members of the Committee have
bsen selected, and this week a
Chairman and Secretary will be
elected. and there is not the
slighest doubt that both will be
pronounced silver men. Instead
of silver having been weakened
cnthe Committee it has really
been strengthened. Senator
Gray, of Delaware, who wasa
member of old Committee, was
not selected for the new one,
solely because of his repudiation |
of the Chicago platform. In his
place Senator RalinTs of Utah,
was selected, aud there is surely
not a stronger silyer man in
either branch of Congress than
he is. Another new member of
tho Committeeis Senator Cock-
reli, of Mc., whose pronounced
silver;view-a e knowt all over the
country. Senators Mitchell, of
Wisconson,: Murphy, of New
York, and Smith, of New Jersey,
who were on the oldCommittee,
were selected tor the new Com-
mittee. They are not silver men
A
personally, but their party loyalty
caused them tosupport Mr. Bryan
and the Chicago platform, ana
there was no just reason why
they should be slighted by teing
left off.
Nearly everybody in Congress
expects that a crisis will be
reached in Cuban matters in a
very ~}:time. Those riots in
Havana will force the hand of
this government if they continue.
The Senate has asked Mr. McKuin-
ley toinform it what, if anyT
preparations have been made to
protect Americans and American
interests in Cuba, and if the an-.
swer isnTt speedily forthcoming
or isnTt satisfactory, there is likely
to be a circus in the Senate. In
the House the consideration of
the Diplomatic and Consular Ap--
propriation bili was postponed
from last week, whea it was ready
for fear that the Cuban speeches
certain to be made upon it would
ergate so much excitement that
the House might get away frem
the Czarand rush that Morgan
belligerency resolution through.
Senator WolcottTs speech would
have greatly surprised the ayer-
age Senater had it not been
kuown ever since Senator Chan-
dier stated that it was Mr.
KinleyTs intention to serd that

miseion to Europe again, that the
McKinley programme included
an attempt to make that old in-
ternational bimetallism will To the
wisp help the repnblicans in tke
coming Congressional Campaign.
Of course, it was somewhat dis-
appointing to Senator WoicottTs
silver friends that he should have
lent himself to this progra.ante,
but he has probably been caught
by the glitter of patronage, big
chunks of which Mr. MeKin-
ley has placed at his disposal
right along.

Thousanis more will die before

Many a newsvaper man has felt
ac. times just ae Mr. Mendes, the
famous French writer, feels when
he sits down to write an article.
The distinguished Frenchman,
facile and prolific as he appears
in his articles, composes with the
greatest difficulty, not knowing
ow he isto begin or what he is,
going to say.. The necessity of
writing a few linesaboui a play
after the performance willsome-
times make him miserable the
whole evening. de relates that
the older he grows the more diffi-
cult becomes his work, and he
frequently expends an hour in iis
study before being able to find a
word upon his subject. It is
related of Rudyard Kipling, in
his newspaper day in India, that
he approached the composition
of an editorial with extreme
trepidation and his most miser-
able days were those upon which
he was assinged to write the lead-
ers for his paper."Press and

NATURETS COMPASS SIGNS.
Different Methods of Determining the
Cardinal Points.
The many different methods to de-
termine the cardinal points while on
the mountains, in both heavy tim-
~er and small bush, or uponT the
featureless expanse of a great marsh,
are exceedingly numerous and reli-
able enough for all. practical pur-
poses during an evenyday life in the
bush, unless a very long journey is
to be made, which would require a
number of days, and would make it
necessary to hold.on a very fine
point while making so long a dis-
tance.
We will first take notes on the
coniferous trees, pines, firs, spruces,
cedars, hemlocks, etc. The bark of
these is always lighter in color,
harder and dryer on the south side
of the tree, while it is in color much
darker, is also damper and often
covered with mold and mogs on the
north side. The gum that oozes out
from wounds, knotholes, etc., is usu-
ally hard and often of beautiful am-
ber color on the south side, while on
the northern side it remains sticky
longer and gets covered with insects
and dirt, seldom drying out to more
} than a dirty gray in color.
On large trees that have rough
bark, especially during the fall and
winter months, the nests and webs
of insects, spiders, ete., will always
be found in the crevices on the south
side. A preponderance of the large
branches will also be found on the
yarmest or southern side of the
trees. Also the needles of all the
above mentioned trees are shorter,
dryer and of a yellowish green on
the southern side, while they will be
found longer, more slender and pli-
able, damper to the touch and dark-
er green in color on the north side.
The cedars and hemlocks, as if try-
ing to outdo tho others, always bend
their slender tops of new growth to-
ward a southern sky.
The hard wood trees are equally
communicative and have all the
characteristics, so far as regards
their trunks, as the coniferous trees,
except the absence of gums, but this
is more than made up by the fungous
growth of mold and mosses that is
very noticeable on the north side of
these trees.
The ledges of rocks, which may be
part of stupendous mountains or
merely an occasional cropping out
here and there in the'woods or per-
haps some great bowlder alone by
itself, a silent witness of the glacial
period, all alike testify to the effect
of light and shade. The sunny side
will usually be bare or at most only
boast of a thin growth of harsh, dry
kinds of mosses that will only grow
When having the light, while the
northern sides will be found damp
and moldy and often covered with a
luxuriant growth of soft, damp
~mosses that love the shade, while
every crevice will bear aloft beauti-
ful and gracefully waving ferns.
The forest floor on the sunny side
of hills, ridges, clumps of trees,
bushes, big rocks, etc., is more noisy
under the footfall than on the north-
ern side of such places, where the
dead leaves and litter are soft and
damp, holding more moisture than
in places exposed to the light of the
sun. .
In an open country, nearly void of
timber, clumps of small bushes dur-
ing summer will furnish all the con-
ditions found to exist among the
Jeaves of the trees, being equally
sensitive to light and shade as are
the monarchs of the woods. The
landscape, green with moving grass-
es and beautiful to the eye, which
feasts on the countless numbers of
wild flowers, representing every
form and hue known in the flowery
kingdom, also furnishes a reliable
guide for locating the cardinal
points, as most wild flowers, espe-
Cially the Jong stemmed varieties,
hide their faces from the north and,
like the sunflower, turn toward a
southern sky."Forest and Stream.
Lewis and the Texan,
De Graffenried of Texas has the
ready wit of an Irishman and the
deft .Hibernian way of turning a
neat compliment, says the Washing-
ton Post. _He had long been an ar-
dent admirer of Alfred Henry Lewis,
and a mutual friend introduced them
to each other.
oI think ITve met you before, Mr,
De Graffenried,TT said Lewis,
~~No,!sir; ITve long wanted to
meet you,T quoth De Graffenried,
~but this is the first time I ever had
the pleasure. TT .
oYes,� insisted Lewis, ~I met you
once before, but it wag on the street
after dark and we couldnTt see each
other.�T
oYou certainly are mistaken about
that,� said the Lone Star man, ~~for
a She is usually a bare-back rider, fs
if ITd been introduced to you in the
Mark I'd have struck a match to seeT
how you looked.� .
THE MAN WHO HADNTT TIME
eee omens,
He never-had time to play,
He never had time to rest,
But he worked away and thought of a
day |
When what he had done wouldT
attest . ,
The usefulness ot his life,
His worth a8 a man among men;
Then he woald quit the strife"
He would rest oh his laurels then.
As a bondman chained he slaved,
Ever lcoking ghead ;
As a miser he hoarded and saved,
Grudging his daily bread!
Beyond was a happy day
Nearer and nearer it drew"
When his work should be put away
And care should be banished, too !
At last upon a day,
When the sun was low in the West,
He put his work sway,
And sat him down to rest.
But where was the dreamed of bliss ?
And why was it now denied ?
Things seemed to be yoing amiss"
- So he brooded awhile and died.

CATARRH OF THE STOMACH.
A Pleasant Simple, but Safe Ef-
fectual Cure for}it.
Catarrh. of the stomach has long
been considered the next thing to
incurable,
The usual symptoms are a fuli or
bloating sensation after eating, accom-
panied sometimes with sour or watery
risings, a formation of gases, causing
pressure on the heart and Jungs and
difficult breathing; headachc fickle
appetite, nervousness and a general
played out, languid feeling.
There is often a foul taste in the
mouth, coated tongue, and if the
interior of the stomach could be seen
it would slowa slimy, inflemed con-
Jition. .
The cure for this common and
obstinate trouble is found in a treat-
ment which causes the food to be
readily, thoroughly digested before it
has a ime to ferment and irritate the
delicate mucous surfaces of the
stomach.
To secure a prompt and_ healthy
digestion is the one necessary thing to
do, and when normal digestion is
secured the catarrhal condition will
have disappeared.
Accerding to Dr. Harlanson the
safest and best treatment is to use
after each meal a tablet, composed of
Distsste, Aseptic Pepsin, a little Nux,
Golden Seal en fruit acids. = * .
These tablets can now be found at
all drug stores uader the name of
StuartTs Dyspepsia Tablets, and, not
being a patent medicine, can be used
with perfect safety aud assurance that
healthy appetite and thorough digestion
will follow their regular use after meals.
Mr, N. J. Booher ct 2710 Dearborn
St., Chicago, Ill, writes: **Catarrh
is a local condition resulting trom a
neglected cold in the head, whereby
the liamg membrane of the nose
becomes inflamed and the poisonous
discharge theretrum, passing backword
into the throat, reaches the stemach,
thus producing catarrh of the stomach.
Medical anthorities prescribed tor me
tor three years tor catarrh of stomach
without cure, but today I am the
happiest of men after using only one
box of StuartTs Dyspepsia ~ablets, I
cannot find appropriate werds to
express my good :eeling.
I have found ilesh, appetite and
sound rest from tueir use.

lest and most convenient remedy tor

* BEATRICE CENCI,
The Beautiful Italian Who Was ~a ~Mar-
: aeress or a Martyr.
One of ~the most interesting events
of Romaz medieval times was the
trial and execution of Beatrice Cenci
for the part she played in the mur-
der of her father, Francesco Cenci,
which took place in his palace on
the night.of Sept. 10, 1598 the day
before his fiftieth birthday. .
To every one othe birth, ancestry
and fate of Beatriee Cenci have had
a weird charm. By many this beau-
tiful and unfortunate Italian girl ic
regarded as a deliberate murderess,
while others regard her asa martyr.
This sentiment is aroused by the ro-
mantic story of the girlTs life and
death, as told by Shelley in his great
tragedy. Few persons in history
have had a greater glamour of ro-
mance cast over their lives than she.
By her own confession it is known
that Beatrice Cenci was accessory to
the murder of her father. It is fur-
ther known that she and her broth.
ers were the instigators of it, but it
was Beatrice especially who ar-
ranged the murder with her lover,
Olimpio Calvitti, and her stepmoth-
er, Lucretia. The whole life of Bea-
trice in the palace, Rocca di Petrel-
la, had been one of extreme unhap-
piness and cruel treatment. She and
the other children were the victims
of the fatherTs ungovernable and
furious nature and most brutal tyr-
anny. There were proofs at her
death to show that she had suffered
many beatings with a certain whip-
ping instrument which was a terri.
ble flagellant.
Resentment rose to revenge in the
heart of Beatrice Cenci, inspiring
her to commit the heinous crime,
and she determined, with the aid of
her stepmother, Lucretia, and her
lover, Calvitti, to carry out her ter-
rible purpose. She it was who gave
Calvitti and his accomplice the
weapons with which to strike the
sleeping man, afterward going toa
near window to watch the scene, as
she said she would. The assassin
then threw the body of Cenci from
the window to the terrace below to
make it appear that he had fallen
accidentally. Itis true that Cenci
was the vilest of wretches, but no
amount of sentiment can palliate
the part taken in the tragedy by his
children.
All Rome was excited over the
event and the subsequent arrest of
those accused of the crime. After a
patient examination the pope finally
decided upon the extreme penalty of
the law on Beatrice, Lucretia and
Giacomo, the eldest brother, who
was to be driven through the city in
a cart and then flayed until he died.
The sentence of Beatrice and Lucre-
tia was supposed to be a less violent
death, as they were women. It was
decreed that they ghould be driven
to the Ponte Sant Angelo and there
be beheaded. The execution took
place in the afternoon, and four
hours later the bodies of Beatrice
and Lucretia were conveyed to the
Church of San Pietro and thero in-
terred in obedience to the dying
wish of the former."Detroit Free
Press.
What He Was Working For.
~ItTs mighty busy ye are, Mike!"!
exclaimed his friend Brady, loung-
ing against the ramshackle counter
of the little bootmakerTs shop. ~~Ye
seem to have plenty of jobs in hand,
and ye're workin at Tem as though
tomorrow was the beginnin of
etérnity and ye wanted to finish up
before ye went.�
~~Whist! DonTt shtop me!�T cried
Mike. ~Oi want to finish these as
quick as Oi can. If Oi donTt make
haste, sure Patsy Malone will be
back before OiTm done.�T
~WhatTs he got to do wid it,

EDWIN BOOTH.
& Sage Anecdete of the Great Actor as
Richelieu.
_ Booth chanced to be in a particu-
larly happy frame of mind"and he
was often cheerful and happy, tra-
dition to the contrary notwithstand-
ing. He was smoking the inevitable
pipe,.and he was arrayed in the cos-
tume of Richelieu, with his feet
upon the table, submitting patiently
to the manipulations of his ward-
robe or man ~~dresser.TT After a few
wordsof greeting the callboy knock-
ed at the door and said that Mr.
Booth was wanted at a certain ~~left
lower entrance.TT The protagonist
jumped up quickly and asked if I
would stay where I was and keep
his pipe alight or go along with him
and see him ~lunch the cuss. of
Rum,TT quoting the words of George
L. Fox, who had been producing re-
cently a ludicrously clever burlesque
of Booth in the same part. I follow-
ed him to the wings and stood by
his side while he waited for his cue.
It was the fourth act of the drama,
I remember, and the stage was set
as a garden, nothing of which was
visible from our position but the
flies and the back of the wings, and
we might have been placed in a great
bare barn, so far as any scenic effect
was apparent.
Adrian, Baradas and the conspira-
tors were speaking, and at an oppo-
site entrance, waiting for her cue,
was the Julie of the evening. She
was a good woman and an excellent
actress, but unfortunately not a per-
sonal favorite with the star, who
called my attention to the bismuth
with which she was covered and said
that if she got any of it on his
new scarlet cloak he would pinch
her black and blue, puffing volumes
of smoke into my face as he spoke.
When the proper time came, he
rushed upon the stage, with a part-
ing injunction not to let his pipe go
out, and with the great meerschaum
in my own mouth I saw the heroine
of the play cast herself into his arms
and noticed, to my great amuse-
ment, that she did smear the robes
of my lord cardinal with the greasy
white stuff he so much disliked. I
winked back at the half comic, half
angry glance he shot toward me] {Jo
over JulieTs snowy shoulders. I half
expected to hear the real scream he
had threatened to cause her to utter.
I thought of nothing but the hu- §
morous, absurd side of the situation.
I was eager to keep the pipe going,
and, lo! he raised his hand and spoke
those familiar lines: ~~Around her
form I draw the awful circle of our
solemn church. Place but a foot
within that hallowed ground, and on
thy head"yea, though it wear a
crown " Ill launch the curse of
Rome!T Every head upon the stage
was uncovered, and I found my own
hat in my hand. I forgot all the
tomfoolery we had been indulging
in; Iforgot his pipe and my promise
regarding it; I forgot that I had
been a habitual theater goer all my
life; [forgot that Iwas a Protestant
heretic, and that it was nothing but
stave play; I forgot everything ex-
ce;.t the fact that I was standing in
th: presence of the great visible
heid of the Catholic religion in
Fr. :ce and that I was ready to drop
up: : my knees with the rest of them
at uis invocation."Laurence Hutton
in HarperTs Magazine.
Two Tramps With Talent.
A number of well known theatrical
people were chatting in a North
Eighta street saloon one night when
a tough looking specimen of the
genus hobo blew into the place and
approached the group at the bar.
He was shaggy and unkempt, and
the effect of years of constant tip-
pling was apparent in the rich col-
oring of his nose. Ina very husky
Weary Willie voice he asked if he
and his pal might entertain the
crowd. This permission being grant-
ed, he went to the door and called
out, ~Chang!T The crowd was
amazed to see a disreputable looking
Chinaman come ambling in and
stand by the trampTs side. Witha
short introduction the oddly assort
ed pair went to work and displayed
some really remarkable feats in
legerdemain, one feat in particular
proving very mystifying. This was
to allow any person to take his own
penknife and plunge the blade into
the CelestialTs arm or leg in any spot
he pleased. After repeated encores
mind reading was resorted to, and a
| really fine exhibition was given.
After this one of the audience, who
was recognized as a magician, drew
the pair aside and tried to bargain
for the setret of the knife'trick. The
men wouldnTt tell, however, and aft-
er about $3 had been collected they |
departed."Philadelphia Record.
