ON Monday night, in flow of soul and
feast OF reason in The most improved plan

pleasant evening OF il. Coffee was served
in paper cups with wire balls and bean
soup WAS served in wooden butter dishes.
There were fourteen rounds fred and the
lines never wavered for moment, but all
stood to the rack like old veterans. All
kinds of beans were cooked In MI kinds OF
styles known to the commissary depart
ment and modern cook books. Inspired
by the associations connected with such II
supper, the last mouthful was scarcely
swallowed when nearly every Comrads
present found himself joining in the rous-
ing old army choruses in which he had
not participated since the days OF Auld
Lang Syne. Comrade Bof gave an idea
Of his versatility by singing national songs
and ballads IN four different languages.
The little German band rendered the
German national airs in their native
tongue. Spirited speeches were made by
Comrade Wolf and others. Comrade Arlz
capped the climax by passing box of
cigars and the entertainment ended in a
tableanx OF smoke.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
tFrom Our Regular Correspondent


WAsniSGToN, u. G., March 80, 1885.
Que OF the peculiar characteristics Of
our new President finds opportunity for
display every day in the week, and about
every hour in the day. THIS is to find
out what people naturally expect the ad-
minisrniion is going 10 do, and then do
M nearly tie opposite Of that expectation
ms possible. 1t has been known here for a
good while that the President and his
family were inclined to n belief IN that
good old Presbyterian doctrine that en,-
braced infant damnntion, aud which was
such comfort to the old lady who con-
gratulatcd herself upon the mighty small
number that would comprise the elect.
The New York Ave. Presby ternn church,
being the most fashionable Of those gov
erned i'y deacons, naturally expected that
the President would choose that house ~
the one best suited TO administer his Sun.
days spiritual food, and 40 the church on
each Sunday since the Inauguration has
been crowded as IL never was crowded be
fore, by an expectant throng anxious to
see Grover under fire of Washington
preacher charged with birthstone ser
mon. The President, however, disappion.
ted everybody, not only by not going to
church ut all, but by sending his family
household to DIR. Sunderland's church,
which for some time has been steadily de-
clining towards final dissolution. OF
course the presence of the Presidents fam
lily here will revive matters there material
ly, Just Ms the Christian Church was put
upon its legs 10y the accession of Mr..
Garfield four years ago.
The nomination and immediate and
unanimous confirmation of Mr.. George ii.
Pendelon as Minister to Germany, is the
administering of most grateful and
soothing balm to the soreness that Gentle
man George experienced in his late defeat
for the Senate bv the Standard Oil Com
pany. As the successor to Mr.. Kasson IL
il hard to say from this standpoint whe-
ther Mr.. Pendleion will please that large
portion OF the American people who have
no love for any sort of aristocracy, and
who will expect him to keep aloof from
the Berlin courtiers. l believe, however,
that may hazard the opinion that Min
lister Pendleton will acquit himself to the
satisfaction oi Mr.. Bayard, and that is
more than can be said OF some of his pre-.
Gecessors.
In the general cleaning ont of the off
cial rubbish that has gathered in the sew
eral departments OF the Government, we
are .elicitated upon the abolition OF the
audauletle and coupe attchments, with
out which 1t seemed impossible for past
administrations TO gel along. NJ. Lamar,
in the Interior Department, and Mr.. Gar
land, in the Department Of Justice, have
ordered the horses and e9nipages attached
to those branches to be sold to the highest
bidder, and the official who cannot ride in
n street car to attend TO his duties or to
make social calls, can pay for his own liv-
cry or go ON foot. This is evidently an
administration that proposes to ignore
coats of-arms and the other insignia oil
adorned snobbery. Dom PEDRO.

is nothing in the world SO thoroughly sdsptsd

giant dressing. Very economical, as only a
small occasional application keeps the hair iu
