When President Cleveland was asked
to appoint Judge Tree to foreign mis-
sion, he replied:
"I'd just as leaf as not"
This gracious answer to the applica-
ton was received with profound
bough.
"In making this appointment, how
ever, continued the Chief Magistrate,
"it is not to be considered by any
branches of the Judges family that they
have only to apply for position to be
appointed"
"Certainly knot" was the response.
"Then l guess, you can tell Judge
Tree to pack his trunk" said the
President. "You expected me, of
course, to appoint him." he added.
"We knew you wood, twas the reply.
"Well," said the President, 81 was
aware that Judge Tree did not pine for
the office, nevertheless in such a posi-
tiOn am anxious to see, as our Eng.
lish friends wouli say, a COOL man at
the 'elm and while I'm maple"
"Chestnnts" exclaimed the delega-
ton In breath.
Then the President retired to his desk
with a pleasant smile on his face, aud the
delegation departed, well pleased with
the success Of their mission. II Boston

spected at the breakfast-table or In the
elevated railway train, and is then
flung aside and forgotten in the tur-
mOil of business hours, but when the
weary workers turn their faces home-
ward after the toll of day is done, they
take with them the evening news-
paper, to interest and instruct each
member OF the family circle at home,
as well as to beguile their thoughts
during their ride. Not only are even
ing newspapers very widely circulated,
but they are very thoroughly read, and
the appreciation Of these facts by ad-

1t is not to be international. 1t will be
essentially national, though beyond the
confines OF our nation. 1t is to be opened
on the lst of May, 1856. The advan-
tages to be derived from such an exhi.
bition are manifold. The friendly re.
lations between the United States and
England will be strengthened; Ameri-
cin inventors, manufacturers and pro-
ducers will have for the first time an
admirable opportunity Of presenting TO
European nations and their colonies
the many improvements made during
the last half Of century, and all the
States will be represented. 1t seems
that sufficient progress has been made
already to secure large and almost
complete series of exhibits. AS the eX.
hibition is in good hands, is sanctioned
by our Government and Is to be perma-
nent, we may reasonably expect the
best OF results to follow.
The Washington critic., 1885-08-12

THERE can be no system OF more vi
tai Importance to this city than one OF
recognition and reward for bravery and
energy or prompt and discreet action
on the part of the police. Nothing can
be of greater Importance to the city's
welfare than an encouragement of yigi-
lance, fearlessness and discretion on
the part of the custodians of the peace.
1t Is too seldom that we hear Of pro-
motion awarded as reward for good
service, and public sentiment will
warmly indorse this mode of encourag-
ing police officers to do their best and
giving them to understand that their of-
forts are appreciated. In the case in
which promotion has just been made
in recognition of merit, it was well de-
served. Officer Weldon is one OF the
youngest though one OF the most ath-
letic and finest men, physically, OH the
force. Trained in the care and custody
of the sick, the INDECENT and the insane
by his service as an ambulance driver
accustomed to peril by his career in the
Fire Department, he brings all the
necessary qualities and experience into
his work on the force. The promotion
Of such men in recognition of merit,
must be in every way beneficial to the
service.

A Mysterious Document.

The clerk OF the court yesterday
found fOrmidable.looking document
on his desk, the legal nature of which
and the person who put it there were
mysteries to him. 1t was semi-legal
document, and related to the manage
ment and property OF the "Columbia
Harmony Cemetery Association" 1t
was signed by John FL. Brooks and j.
w. Butcher, and was addressed TO the
judges Of the court. They stated that
by authority and in behalf of the lot
owners of the old organization, which
was extinct with the exception of one
member, John Il. Cook, it was re-
organized June l3 last. In the new
body John ii. Brooks and j. w.
Butcher we're elected president and
secretary, respectively. The document
goes on to relate that under the present
state OF affairs there is no proper super
vision of the affairs Of the cemetery, and
they are entirely in the hands of an in
experienced young woman. They also
apply for the money and ground held
in trust for the cemetery. 1t Is alleged
also in the paper that the present
management has violated the law gov
erning cemeteries by failing to keep a
proper register of graves and grave
sites and by using the proceeds Of the
sale OF such for personal gain, and that
they have failed to perform the duties
Of their office.

THE cholera is not the worst thing
the young King OF Spain has to fear If
there be any truth in the reported dis
cOvery of plot for his assassination.
1t is distrcssiul condition Of affairs,
the epidemic alone considered, but the
outlook is also big with portents OF
revolution, in which old dynasties must
fall and thrones give way. There are
republican statesmen in Spain, the
ablest OF any on the continent of Eu-
rope, and the seed they are sowing is

CHIEF SHAW of the London Fire
Brigade is now on his way to New
York again, He evidently likes the
United States and will doubtless receive
q warm welcome. Some years ago he
had an English idea that America had
everything to learn in regard to the
management of fires and the organiza-
ton Of fire departments. He soon dis
covered his mistake, however, although
it has taken several visits to this coun-
try to modify his prejudices. 1t is
barely possible that this time he will
carry some American ideas home with
him for introduction in the London
service. 1t is doubtful il anywhere in
the world can be found so efficient and
advanced a system for the eXtinguish-
ment Of fires in the large cities Of the
United States.

PEOPLE who go to the White House
these days will find that edifice as much
in the hands Of Republicans as it
was before the All OF March. With
the President and Colonel Lamont
away, there is not Democrat in the
Mansion, excepting, perhaps, the stew
ard. II cvil-scrvice reform, like charity,
begins at home, President Cleveland is
certainly in very close proximity to it,.
The Washington critic., 1885-08-12

THE midsummer ovcrhauling of the
White House shows that never before
in the annals of that historic mansion
has it suffered SO much from the wear
and tear Of single season. The house
was in excellent condition when Mr..
Arthur left it, but the daily throngs of
office-seeking callers and the mighty
rush Of visitors, curious TO see the
novelty of Democratic Chief Magis-
trate, have sprung the stairways, worn
the floors and defaced the walls. The
effect which the events of six months of
the new Administration has had upon
the inanimate contents Of the Executive
Mansion seems to encourage the idea
that its living occupants have earned
their vacation, and are also in need of a
season OF rest and recuperatlon.

The half century of the reigu Of
Queen Victoria will be completed June
20, 1887, but in accordance with pre-
cedents Her Meiesty's jubilee" will
be celebrated at the beginning instead
of the end of the fifteth year, or on the
goth of June, 1886, circumstance
which the managers of the American
Exhibition, to be held the same sum-
mer, look upon AS likely to increase the
eclat of the occasion and enhance the
chances of its success.
The Washington critic., 1885-08-12

THERE is tacit understanding
pervadiDg the Departments that all
business pertaining to place-making aud
place.filling is to come as nearly to a
standstill as possible during the sum-
mer. This result is brought about
mo only by an insinuation on the part Of
the President that appointments and
removals have received rather an undue
share of official attention, and the time
has come for this disturbing element 10
be lifted out of the Department work
and attention to be turned to accumu-
lated business. The Presidents Ian
guagc is said to have suggested the idea
that the great mass Of the people are at
least as much interested in having the
public business done as they are in the
question of who shall do it.

SECRETARY ENDICoTT is consist
emily and energetlcally cndeavoring to
convince soldiers and civilians that
favoritism Is to lose its inildence in
army appointments, assignments and
removals, and that merit and the needs
of the service are to outweigh all other
considerations. Mr.. Endcott has al
ready done many things to inspire con-
fidence in the sincerity OF his course,

are very apt to think, because he does not
like the removal, that some personal injury
is cast upon him, or some reflection is made

contrary. Removals and appointments, SO
far rs | know anything about them, or have
anything to do with them, are made simply
because the good of the service requires
them; and this is one of those cases, and in

This is certainly just and manly
statement of the case that all right
minded officers will approve and ap.
