Enterprising Correspondents.

The Washington correspondent of the
Louisville COurter-JOa17adl saws: Mem
bers of Congress are constantly puzzled
as to how correspondents get hold of
their secret proceedings in caucus. After
the last caucus there was pretty cor
rect report given in one paper of the SUBJ
jects reported from one of the committees
and presented for discussion. 1t was
afterward learned that the chairman of
the committee had made some notes in
regard to the subjects presented to the
caucus. When they adjourned he tore
the paper to pieces and threw them in
the waste-paper basket. When all had
departed an enterprising reporter entered
the hall and began search for items.
He saw the bits of paper and carefully
collected all of them, then he retired and
