Springfield Republican Washington Letter.
| questioned a leading Republican
senator last evening, one who is under
stood to be in great favor at the White
Honse, as to his views in regard to
the administration, He confessed to
great disappointment in the President,
and declared that even the Presidents
recent more vigorous and promising
performances came far short of what
his friends expected of him, and fur
nished little ground for hope that he
would yet show himself equal to the
duties and opportunities Of the present
times. when congress assembled
last fall" said he, "the Republicans,
with the exception of Conkling and a
half dozen with him,l were ready to
support the administration cordially.
If he had furnished them an oppor-
tunity to rally to his support, they
would have done so hearth
ly. If he would wiring some
body's neck if he would make a
fight that amounted to something he
would find that he had plenty of
friends and supporters. As it is, he
is letting his opportunity slip by, and
there is little prospect now that his.
administration will have any influence
upon the politics of the immediate
future" This, in substance, and
more, the senator referred to stated as
his opinion, and by his manner he
showed that he felt the deepest regret
and disappointment because of the
Presidents mild and Intellectual policy.
He said that instead of being encour-
aged and inspired by his recent
triumph, through the aid of his friends
in the senate, he seemed disposed to
go on in the same old e~asy-going jog,
and he had about despaired of his ever
waking up to the necessities of the
hour. He seems to be indulging,"

THE ARKANSAS WAY.
The Alleged Attempt at Bribery in the
Senatorial Contest Some Testi-
mOny Bearing on the Same.
Special to the Cincinnati Enquirerl

Special to the Cincinnati Enquirer.1
LITTLE Rock, ARK, February 10.
Mr., Dawson, the colored member Of
the legislature, who was, a few days
ago, arraigned at the bar of the house
for refusing To testify before the com
mittee investigating the charge Of
bribery in the recent senatorial cleo
ton, appeared before that committee
to-day, and testified in substance that
ex-R Revenue Collector H. M. Cooper
came after him, saying that Logan H.
Roots, president of the First National
Bank, desired an interview with him.
The witness went to see MI. Roots,
who opened the subject by saying that
they (the Republican, had no choice
in any of the senatorial a%spirants, but
were Of the opinion that r. w. John
son would do more for them if elected
than any of the others. lie said that
arrangements had been made to look
after several of the members, includ-
ing Mr.. Dawson, further stating that
he (Dawson) might as we'll make some
thing out of the matter as not.
Dawson asserts that he refused the
overtures to sell his vote in favor OF
Mr.. johnson, when Mr.. Roots told
him that he (Dawson) should receive
twice the amount paid to the Others
with whom arrangements had been
made, all Of which was refused.
The witness further said a letter
from r. W. Dorsey was shown him by
M. w. Gibbs, United States register
Of lands, for the purpose Of infuenc-
ing him, in which it was asserted by
Senator Dorsey that it would be the
best for the Republicans, particularly
the colored people, that johnson be
elected. The testimony is totally al
variance with the testimony given by
Mr.. Roots before the same committee
a few days ago.
Mr.. Kurdish, the other reealcitrant
colored member, who, when the last
house decided to compel him to testify
last week resigned with Streaming
eyes, has since asked leave to with
draw his resignation, which was
granted, and he is tonight giving his
testimony before the committee. II
is reported that direct and positive
evidence of bribery will be obtained
from this witness.

TOO THRILLING.
How a Play with Three Heavy Villains in
It was Spoiled.

Toledo Commercial
The play was full of heavy villains
the leading lady was the i~nnocent
maiden upon whom they had designs
and the trouble was all brought abont
by her having to read her part. For
instance, one villain enters, and seizes
the leading lady. The latter looks AT
her manuscript and reads Finland
me, villain (~business)." Now "bmsi-
ness means that a struggle sbonld
ensuel but the leading lady in her
agitation, renders it thus: ''Unhand
me, villain Business" The villain
stands back abashed at this unex-
pected turn, and the prompter goes
crazy, and yells, ''Take hold of her

The villain rushes up to seize the wo-
man, who looks at her manuscript and
shrleks, Sooner than submit to your
embrace, | will take this knife" Then
she pauses and looks around for the
knife. The prompter by this time is
turning h%andsprings all over the floor.

his hair, and shouting, "0h Godfrey's

at the door Of a chamber to see that
the heroine does not escape. It Is his

business to escape by him, just before
the other two villains rush in and ox-
claim, Aha, here she isl But she
has lost her place, and as the cut
Threats rush in and make their ex-

Then the prompter becomes a drivel-
ing idiot. His load is more than he
can bear, and his mind gives way be-

retired spot and sinks to the floor.

LAST NIGHTS t
Christian ~chlvaIry," by Father Ma
gevney.

The finished and highly entertain
ing lecture of Rev. Father Maeevney
al the theater last night afforded fund
of information to the audience pres
ent. The attendance was not as large
as the eloquent speaker deserved, but
the two hundred who were present
were delighted, and all agreed that a
crowded house should have rewarded
so capital a speaker who handled his
subject with marked skill and ability.
The eloquent divine spoke of chiv-
airy and its philosophy, together with
its cause and effects, referring to its
complications in the middle ages, its
different phases in the past, its spirit,
its inspirations and beauties, and
qualities Of knighthood.
The lecturer believes that chivalry
springs from and is influenced by re-
ligion. He told in the course of his
remarks of the deeds of past chival-
rio heroes of more recent action by
those who administered to the wants
of the afflicted in times of distress; of
good men and noble women who give
their substance and labor to alleviate
gaunt want stricken,
and he paid a most beautiful tribute
to the bravery of frail- bodied, but
strong-hearted, women, who devote
their energies to the work of aiding
the less fortunate of Gods people.
The reverend father invoked the
blessings of the Almighty on his
hearers, exhOrtiDg them to serve and
love the Giyer of all good. He won
the hearts of his listeners, and they
testified their appreciation by liberal
applause during the course of the lee
ture.
