WORDS IN PANroNnE.

This charming game may be played by children
of all ages and will interest the old and young
alike. We have seen grandparents unite in it with
their grandchildren, with mutual pleasure and profit
1t is adapted TO any number of performers although
at least ten persons should be engaged in it, to rem
der it most effective, and twenty-five are not too
many The company is first divided, so that each
side may have a fair proportion of old and young,
and of gentlemen and ladies and children. One
party goes into adjoining room, while those who
remain in the apartment select a word. They then
call in the leader of the other side, and as guide,
tell him some word that rhyme5tesih the one they
have chosen. He then consults his psrty, and they
try to guess it among themselves; but instead of
telling the word they return and act it before the
players who selected it. They in tum must guess
the word which is performed before thsm, and
name it. If the actors have fixed upon the wrong
word they are sent back TO select another, and act
it, which they continue 10 do until they hit upon
the right one when they in turn select word to be
guessed and Scted out by the other side. This
game can be played out of doors quite as well, by
the two parties taking different sides Of field or
grove The best words for the purpose are those
which easily rhymed and the more difficult they
are to express in pautomime, the more fun there is
for the audience and actors.

Another Investigation i'm PrOxre<

Col. Clinton c. Colgate, representing the
New York Stock Exchange, was sworn before
the ways and means committee yesterday re-
garding newspaper paragraph, which asserted
that the Stock Exchange had spent a large sum
of money TO secure the passage of an amend
ment i'm last years tax bill, declaring borrowed
money, in the hands of brokers, not taxable AS
capital. Colgate swore that he did not paw
promise to pay, or hint at paving any money to
any government official I'm Washington or else
where TO help him, except to Mr.. Ralph Wood
II New York, who acted as his legal counsel
But he added that Judge Sherman, Judge of the
United States District Court for the northern
district of Ohio, brother of Senator and Gene
raj sherman, has presented a bill of $4,000
which he claims is due for arguments and brief
by which was secured the aid of Senator Sher-
man and General Garfield. Colgate saws he
don't know and never saw Judge Sherman:
never knew of his assistance, if he gave any,
Gen. Garfield utterly disclaims all knowledge
mat sherman made argument or brief in the
rase In fact, he had nothing to do with it.
The amendment was put on at Senator Fenton's
fequest. i'm the finance committee, and was
agreed to i'm conference committee without de-
bative action i'm the House.
Colgate is to produce before the committee
Judge Sherman's letter accompanying his bill;
also, his own report to the stock exchange
wherein he charges that George A. Bassett, the
clerk OF the committee on WAYS and means
submitted TO him proposition TO take care of
the matter i'm that committee for $3.50 per month
until the bill became a law, when 5000 cash
was to be paid. This offer Colgate, after re-
porting II TO the president of the stock exchange
alleges that he peremptorily rejected.
