.'Ycs, the principal topic,of CONVERSE
ton here at present is the probable ac-
ton of the incoming administration"
The speaker was Mr.. William NJ.
Ashley, of sos Main avenue, man
whose large and intimate acquaintance
with prominent public men here in
Washington, renders his opinion of un-
usual weight"
1.-The all important question among
the clerks of the various depart
ments is, who is to go? In my opinion
there will be very few changes among
the old-time employees who have been
here year in and year out through sew
eral administrations. The removals
will occur among the heads of depart
ments.'
1.-The sense of mistrust which must
necessarily pervade the departments is,
| suppose, detrimental to the proper
transaction of business?"
"Well, rather, l reckon. 1t units
the clerks for business. Some get very
blue, for they have purchased little
homes which they must sacrifice.
Last summer it was reported that
many were i'll of malaria. How is it?"
''More likely i'll of fear of change.
l don't think Washington is so very
malarious. At the same time l admit
that since residing here, have not al
ways felt first-rate. At times l have
been greatly troubled with sharp-shoot-
ing pains. One day my right arm and
leg would torture me with pain, there
would be great redness, heat and SWELL
ing of the parts, and perhaps the next
day the left arm and leg would be SIM
ilarly affected. Then again it would
locate in some particular part of my
body and produce a tenderness which
would well nigh drive me frantic.
There would be weeks at time that I
would be afflicted with an intermitting
kind of pain that would come on every
afternoon and leave me comparatively
free from suffering during the balance
of the twenty-four hours"
''Of course you consulted the doctors
regarding your difliculty?"
Consulted them? Well, 1 should
say did. Some told me had neural
gia; oilers that l had 1nflammatory
rheumatism, for which there was no
cure"
"But didn't they try to relieve your
miscries?''
''Yes, they vomited and physiced me,
blistered and bled me, plastered and
oiled me, sweat, steamed and every
thing but froze me, but without avail"
"But how did you finally recover"

and had been cured. He wrote me re-
garding his recovery and advised me to
try the remedy which cured him. L
procured bottle and commenced its
use, taking a tablespoonful after each
meal and at bed time. had used it
about week when [ noticed decrease
of the soreness of the joints and gen.
eral feeling of relief. 1 persevered in
its use and finally got so 1 could move
around without limping, when | told
my friends that it was warmers safe
rheumatic cure that had put me on my
feet"
'sAnd do you regard your cure as per-
manent?'
, s'This was more than a year ago; the
trouble has not returned and [ haven't
been so well in years as am now"
Speaking of Presidents Cleve-
land, who, in your opinion, will COM
prise his cabinet?'
THAT is as difficult to determine as
it is to say what otficeholders will 90.
Many good men have been named for
the positions-Bayard, Thurman, Bragg,
Mcclellan, not to mention IA lot of lesser
lights. Every prominent politician has
a slate made up which he Is backing to
win, but then, as is always the case,
some one will get left.''
