The Privacy that Absorbed Workers Like.

They tell of one of the Harris. q
painter that when he is in the throes
of labor he admits no one to his room.
Some one called on him once and
Knocked. There was no response, but
he heard a noise within. and kept the
rapping up till the door suddenly open
ed.
You'll excuse me- said the artist,
through three inches of aperture, "but
] am painting on u sky"
And he slammed the door and re-
sumed his work.
1t reads like rudeness, doesn't if
But what man who has ever tried to
work under fire of an idle lounger with
little or no sympathy for his toll will
not recognize il as justiliable onep
A man can no more paint on anything
he is seriously interested in under a for
eign disturbance than he could write a
poem or compose an opera. There
never was painter yet, who, when he
did good work, did not forget himself
and his surroundings in it, and there
never was one who could do good work
under any other circumstances. The
majority need privacy for their labor,
like the portrait painter who, when the
mother of u baby sitter said to him:
MIR. Y. why don't you talk to me?
I'm sure it's very dull here.
Replied with more excuse than polite
ness:

Carlisle Victorious.

For several weeks, the most momentous
subject in political circles has been the ques-
ton Who will be the Speaker of the Forty
eighth Congress. A number of candidates
have been named, the three principle ones be.
ing Carlisle, Randall and Cox. The friends
and supporters OF the rival candidates have
been untiring in their efforts to secure the
election OF the man OF their choice, and In some
respects the present canvass, preliminary to
the election OF the speaker, was the most hoLly-
contested OF any known in several years.
The Democratic caucus was held in the hall
OF the House on the evening of December LIST,
lSS members responding to the rol-call. After
the organization OF the caucus, John q. Car
Isle, Samuel j. Randall, and 8. s. Cox were
nominated In the order named. The voting
was done on the Dtga gOce plan. Two ballots
were taken, on the first Of which Carlisle re-
ceived l0l, and on the second 107, when his
nomination was declared unanimous, and Mr..
Carlisle escorted to the chair amid deafenng
applause. In a neat and timely speech Mr..
Carlisle accepted the honor conferred upon
him. The other candidates, Randall and Cox,
very gracefully accepted the situation, and
pledged to the successful candidate their
hearty support.
TIE MINOR OFFICES
were filed as follows: John B. Clark, OF Mis-
souri,, clerk; j. c. Wintersmith, of Texas,
door-keeper; John F. Leedom, of Ohio,

THE REPUBLICAN CAUCUS

tien OF postmaster, who was not a candidate.
Deputy Postmaster McNair received the
unanimous nomination for this position.

Mammals Ship.

The Point Lobos Waterman Of the

his monOtonous contemplation of the

rap on the lower panel of the door of

THE pPrdoning of Sergeant Mason, OF
this time, is an act of clemency which
all fair-minded people will heartily en-
dorse. Mason attempted TO do what
thousands of other men would have
done had they had an opportunity
That he failed 20 take the life of the rs
sassin was no reason why he should rot
be punished for his oflense. and so
violent breach of army disci-
pline could not be overlooked. Had
Mason been released without any pun
ishment, or had he been pardoncd soon
after his sentence had been pronounced,
in either case the tendency would have
been to encourage laxity, which, from u
military point o4 view at least, is en-
ceedingly dangerous. AtlcaSt this was
the view taken by the army officials,
and Sergeant Mason went 20 prison,
where for two years he has been coniin-
ed. However grave his oflense, from a
military point of view, the public, as
well as the president, believe he has
paid the penalty in full, and this act of
President Arthur will make many
hearts glad, besides "Betty and the
Baby"

Fire at Pinoonning.

A fire broke out in Rhodes hall at
Pinconning, thriving village on the
Mackinac division of the M. {. Il r.,
20 miles from Bay City, while a dance
was in progress. A high wind prevailed
at the time, and before the flames could
be extinguished nearly all the business
portion of the town was mass of ruins.
The following buildings were burned:
Gains restaurant, Rhodes hall, +. Jen-
nlngs' meat market, Barrie's saloon,
Morris drug store, McCormick's store
(generaD, shoe shop, barber shop,
bakery and saloon. The total loss is
nearly 81, 900. The fire probably or
iginaled from lighted cigar carelessly
thrown into some combustibles in the
dance-hall, although some assert it
broke out in the kitchen of Gains res
taurant, directly under the hall. One
policy held by Mr.. Mccormick expired
at noon the day after the fire.

The Geology Of the Great West.

In his report to the Secretary of the
Interior, Mr.. j. w. Powell, director of
the United States Geological Survey,
gives some interesting facts. In Colo
RADIO, valuable beds of anthracite and
of bituminous coal have been found,
surprising in quality any heretofore
discovered in that region, and indica-
tons of large deposits of iron are visi-
BILE. Evidences of the former existence
of large fresh water lake in Western
Nevada have been discovered. Traces
of n vast continental glacier have been
found, of so well defined a character rs
possibly to change the present geologi-
cal conclusions of previous explorations.
In the work done is included survey
of the Cascade range in Oregon and
Northern California. Mr. Powell says
that this region is perhaps the holder
of the grandest and most extensive dis
play of natural phenomena in the
world, and its exploration and thorough
investigation will add greatly to the
facts of geological science.
