VEST POCKETS,
The Difference Between the Pockets Of
Married and Unmarried Men.

Married and Unmarried Men.
A young man from one of the subur-
ban districts was in to one of our tailor
shops getting measured for a vest the
other afternoon. Married or unmar-
ried ?" queried the merchant, after
taking down the number.
Unmarried" said the young man,
with a blush.
Inside pockets on the left hand side,
them" observed the tailor, as il to him
self, making a memorandum to that
effect.
After moments pause the young
man from the suburbs inquired: "What
difference does my being married or I'M
married make with the inside pocket Of
my vest ?"
''Ah, my dear sir" observed the tailor,
with bland smile, ''all the difference
possible, as you must see. Being un-
married you want the pocket on the left
side, so as to bring the young lady's pic
ture next to your heart"
e "But dom the married man also want
his wife's picture next to his heart ?"
queried the anxious youth.
Possibly there is an instance of that
kind" said the tailor, arching his eye
brows; "but I never heard of it. "-Dan-

w WASHINGTON, March THE fall Of

{ H6markHble. The storm of investiga-
o& which opened with such force by
o House Is casting its shadows over
Bn who, during the many years OF Re-
ubliCan administration, have become
Il toolthy by questionable practices in
lGe and the distribution OF patronage
n compensation. Already strange ru-
16llcen officeholders are flying about,
Anparently becoming more evident.
om6 time ago A. b. Mullet, ex-Super-
~16inQ Architect of the Treasury, left
4 NJ country to travel in Europe for the
|6orpose Of Incorporating his health after
zfonatructing the New York postot1ice.
gentleman who is intimately ac-
USlnted with Mullet says the ex-Su-
z66fvlsing Architect has taken up his
31ldence permanently abroad, and is
70 situated that, upon advices by
l6iegraph, he will place himself beyond
6e reach of the law In country with
bfch we have no extradition treaty.
III change OF residence from America
10 Europe was due to the fact of the in
z&4itable Investigations that he knew
oQ1d follow the assembling Of the
30m0cratic House.

Shors. One big steal has already come

1b6altum, etc. This material is sold
IN packages marked '.X or Xxx" ac-
c0rdtng to quality. For instance, q
fnnoknge Of material marked OK" would
Xxx quality would cost twice rs much,
~ $40. It was noticed that quantities
& the roofing marked ''X" when it left
IeW York almost always bore the
nrk Xxx" when 1t reached its
|6etination In the West. The Gov
nment was thus defrauded out of the
f6efence between the cost Of first
$3.50 article and an inferior article, and
tn buildings were rooted with the latter.
another matter which the committee
Ave under consideration and which
ny reveal some interesting facts, is the
ne OF about fifty acres Of land in Glen
H1e, 3 suburb Of Cincinnati, by a A. A.
gDG0lIett, father OF the ex-Supervising
kitect, to John M. Muller. About
6So nth OF the purchase price, $500
|Eek acre, was paid down and the balance
80 made due on five promissory notes
IN &o066 50 each, secured by mortgage.
Euller was one Of the largest contrac-
Nh under Mullett, in the construction
