THAT HOUSE PEsTHoLE.
A Sad Picture with Lcgless SOL
dicr i'm the Foreground-A Myste-
rfous sDisnpDpnrnucp.

n Snu Picture WIN n hegtess sol
dier In the Foreground-A Myste'
rious Disappearance.
Further examinations into the condition OF
the uncomfortable and unhealthy folding.
room Of the House have been made by THE
CRITIC since mention OF this unsavory place
was made few days since, and those examin.
atlons and investigations reveal
An Additional Horriduess.
In the folding-room proper there are en-
ployed forty-two laborers, ranging in age
from tho youthful boy to tho gray-halred man
all busy, toiling away, from o o'clock in the
morning until haltpast In the evening.
THE CRITIC speaks of 1t as toiling in its strong
est sonse, for It is labor OF the hardest and
most nerye-taxing kind The effect OF this daily,
long-continued toll in the miserable hole
is, there Is scarcely a day but that some one
OF the employees Is compelled to absent him
self on accouht Of sickness, produced by work
there. Tho boy will lose the bloom of his
cheek, and the aged man is ready TO drop on
his stool before the days work Is over from
mere nervous exhaustion. There is
One Very Notable Instance Of suffer-
Ing
there, In the person OF Mr.. I. Page, from
Michigan, who lost both his limbs In the
Union Army He enlisted when n moro boy,
10 years old, and at the battle of Yorktown
took seat on tho ground, when both of his
legs from the knees down were shot away. He
has never asked his country for any oflce up
to the present time, and the first time he has
applied to his friends for a position at the
hands of the Government he has been kindly
invited to take another seat, on q stool In the
bakeoven of the Capitol. Ho uses artificial
appendages to walk with, and so hard is tho
labor upon him there, SO hot and unhealthy
the atmosphere, that he is obliged to take OH
his wooden limbs to cool the stubs of his legs.
A Mysterious Disappearance.
In speaking OF the ill-troatmont of the em.
ployes OF the House foldlng-room, a pertinent
query fs suggested: What has become of the
resolution of Mr.. Houk, of Tennessee, asking
that the "salaries of tho employees OF the
House be equalized with those OF the Senator"
Where does 1t slumber, and who sleeps upon
1T, while these hard worked and overtasked
men and boys are asking for relief In their
treatment and wages?
THE CRITIC would suggest that 1t Is highly
proper for Mr.. Houk to call up his resolution
and have II acted upon by the House. The
sooner the better and II should also cover tho
delinquencies that are manifestly due these
employees from the commencement OF the ses-
sion.
Let Justice be Done.
"When the matter is brought to the atten-
tion OF the House, let us see and know the man
who is so coward1y, and SO moan, as to strike
down his own slave and rob him of his lust
dues, said statesman who favors tho resolu-
tion. SIT is no just argument" continued tho
Member, "to say that II these employees do not
Ike their salaries and positions they can re-
sign, Tor the same argument can be used
against Members In many matters that would
embarrass them"

Mahone's Penitentiary Pet.

Marvin, the notorious convic' =,
drawing designs tor work at the
penitentiary, and going about giv>
ing directions regarding that work,
is an outrage on decency, No mat
ter how skilled convict may be
in the mechanic arts, or how much
he NAV know about architecture and
engineering, it is an outragc when
that convict is allowed to come in
contact with respectable people.
Tie Tlcdegar is doing some work
for the new build ne at tie penitcn.
iia:y. 1t is understood that some
OF the designs for this work were
drawn by Marvin, and that Marvin
visited tie Tredegar two or thee
times to give directions as TO how
the work was TO be done.
The TACT that The laws of Virgil
MIA allow conyicis TO be lii, d out,
as convict labor. is no excuse for
permitting Marvin TO air himself be-
lore the community as architect and
craftsman. But the Penilentl .ry
of Virginia belongs 10 Boss NJ lLone
The man above all others who de
lights In insuIii' 6 honest labor and
respectable people.

REIMBURSEMENT MADE PLAIN -
It begins to dawn upon the minds
Of the United States officials in
Virginia what the iesdjustmcnt
principles really mean. According
to the recent bulletin from Boss
Malone it means five per cent. OF
all federal salaries TO help the new
boss TO retain his power. And this
is only first probably. II the boss
finds the necessities of reimbursement
require that another portion of these
salaries should be readjusted into
the boss treasury IN order that the
readiustment campaign may have
sufficient money in it, he will not
hesitate 10 make another application
OF the new cad ustment doctrine. -

THE exposure of Malone and bis
tricks 10 defraud the people has put his
whole party on The defensive. They
have a few men who are willing 10
stand up and see the indignation of the
people. Let every man who loves his
State determine TO use all means in his
power TO stamp this Mahonete faction
who have betrayed the Democracy,
betrayed the readjusters and are now
endeavoring to betray the poor negroes,
out of existence. The man who can
defend Malone and his party certainly
has a hard cheek.

The Bad and Worthless

are never initiated or cOunterieted. This is
especially true Of family medicine. and it
is positive proof that the remedy initiated is
of the highest value As soon as it had been
tested and proved by the whole world that
Hop Bittcrs was the purest, best and most
valuable family medicine on earth, many
limitations sprung up and began TO steal the
notices in which the press and people of the
coustry had expressed the merits Of H. B.,
and in every way trying to induce suffering
invalids to use their stuff instead, expecting
to make money on the credit and good name
of H. B. Many others started nostrums put
in similar style to II b., with various Y
devised names 10 which the word Hop or
Hops ere used in a way to induce people to
believe they were the same as Hop Bltters.
All such prended remedies or cures, no
matter what their style or name is, and es
pecially those with the word Hop or Hops
in their name or in any way connected with
them or their name, are limitations or coun-
terfeits. Beware of them. Touch none Of
them. Use nothing but genuine Hop Bitters,
with them a bunch or cluster of green Hops
on the white label. Trust nothing else
Druggists and dealers are warned against
dealing in limitations or countorfeis.

Why BARRIERS Are Talkatiye,

The German barber near the Cooper
Institute, New York, had not been par
hcularly talkative. Indeed, he had per
mitted his customer to get in word more
than once. 1t may have been q little
unfair, then, for the customer to ask, as
he did: "Why do BARRIERS all talk so
much?"
"DOt vos all humbucks," said he.
"Der BARRIERS don't dalk much. Dom
