An hour spent in the office Of Secretary Foger
would convince any one that the position of head
of Department is no sinecure and that he fairly
all the salary and honor that may be attached
TO the office. The Secretary, who is a fine looking
man of about sixty years of age, with hair and
e-whlskers slightly tinged with gray sits at his
desk and receives his visitors In dignihed, busi-
ness. like manner. His hours arc from ten to one,
and Judging from the number present In one hour,
he must have about u hundred visitors each day.
Some of them are Senators, some Representatives,
some heads of bureaus, and very many Rp-
plicantS for office Each conner is bent
upon reaching his ear first, and many de-
vices are tried to get In ahead OF
others. The office itself is quite spacious and lux
urOus. The floor Is covered with a rich Wilton
carpet Of black ground, with sprays OF crimson
roses over It, and leaves and lines of shades OF
green and olive. There are six large windows
heavily draped with raw silk curtains Of crimson
and gold. Al one end Of the room is Il handsome
pier glass, and mirror also over the mantel, The
latter is Of white marble deliberately carved with
stars aud spread eagle, resting upon u shield.

Two worthy citizens Of Nankin, Tenn, had q
spat seventeen years ago, and since then they
have been bitter enemies Recently the three
clegymen OF the town undertook 10 effect recon-
ciiation, but the peaceful arguments adding to
the fame brought ON a shooting ARRAY. Last week
a good-natured citizen invited the enemies to his
house. He had studied carefully their tastes. One
he entertained with apple jack In the library and
the other with beer in the sitting-room. Both got
to be brimful of good humor. The adroit peace
maker got one TO say that he really liked So.and-
so. The remark was overheard, the sliding door;
between the rooms were pushed apart, and the
enemies shook hands.-PhQddeiphid Press.

representatives in Washington and the other to
governments to send delegates here, and the Sec

the acceptance of the invitation, and to promise
that this Government would bear all the expenses

countries. The European legations in South
