We questioned gentleman who is on

Then he breakfasts and smokes. After
this, the Secretary opens his mail. and
the President smokes
Does he ever read the papers 2"
ooh, no; his secretary reads them all,

likely to interest the President he marks
it. The files thus marked the President
sometimes looks into, but he seldom gets
beyond one, and this he does not keep
long unless it happens to be sporting

has visitors"
And the President silently listens
and smokes
He smokes, certainly but there is %
popular delusion anent that silence.
Among his intimate friends and his fam
lily he talks ince3santly y-that is, it the
subject is not political. When politics
are touched he suddenly grows reserved
and sinks into silence"
"And after"
"Well, then comes an early dinner and
more smoking After dinner there is n
drive Of two and sometimes three hours.
Then tea and smoke After tea more

he indulges in a walk, and then he is ac-
companied by friend and a cigar Al

"My dear friend, he gives all his time
here, as in Washington, to government

to be got, either for himself or friend.
That il government business, and he on

is a contract in question. This Is gov
