order shutting them out of the White house.
On the whole it is quite as agreeable to
them, for it multiplies by seven the number
of persons to whom application for Office
may be made. Heretofore, while the head
of the department was looked upon as a
person who might be approached with ref
erence to office, the president was the final
arLiter, and appeals were made in very
many cases directly to him. Now, under
the recent refusal by the president to see
anybody on matters pertaining to Office, his
head OF the department where the case
rests is the court of final appeal, and the
office-seekers are thus enabled to divide
themselves up among the seven heads of
departments. Already the effect is quite
perceptible in the increased demand for ad
mission to the Offices of the heads of the de-
partments. The result is observable, too,
in the fact that the heads of the depart
ments are daily growing more irascible.
They have been worried pretty nearly out
of their minds with the deluge of Office
seekers ever since they came into position,
and now just as they are preparing their
annual reports, to have the president turn
the entire stream upon them proves eX-
tremely eXasperating, and they are de-
scribed by those who call upon them as
very, very cross.

OLD WORLD NEWS.
The Stead Inauisitfon.

LONDON, Nov. 2.-In the Armstrong alb
duction case to-day Mrs. Josephine Butler
testified that she, Mr.. Stead, Mr. Scott, the
city chamberlain and Mrs. Booth had Jointly
guaranteed e200 to pay Mrs. Jarrett for
procuring girls. Mr.. Stead said that the
Pail Mall Gazette had paid e4OO the cost
of the secret commission. Mrs. jarrett told
him that Mrs. Ann Broughton kept a
brothel and that the mother of Eliza Arm
strong was drunkard and had twice asked
her to take Eliza. Mrs. Jarrett was re-
called, and confessed that she had lied
when she previously testified that she once
kept brothels at Manchester and Bristol,
and declared she was driven to lying by Sir
Richard Webster, the attorney general.
Mr.. Stead confessed that the statement of
the Pail Mall Gazette that he could person.
ally vOuch for the truth of the Lilly"
story was not strictly true. because he had
relied in measure On the assertions Of
Mrs. Jarrett, who had since equivocated in
the witness box. The court adjourned. A
number Of the Salvation army were mobbed
as they were leaving the court at the close
of the proceedings.

Civil Service Commissioner Select
The Christian Women.

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. AT the third
days session of the National Women's
Christian Temperance Union, the executive
committee reported a weekly religious paper
in trouble that could be bought for $100,
and recommended it be purchased and
transferred into a German temperance
paper. The report was accepted but no
other action taken. The secretary. after
some discussion, was instructed to cast the
ballot of the convention for Miss Frances
E. Willard of Illinois for president. At
the afternoon session reports from various
departments were received, and the follow
ing officers were reelected: Corresponding
secretary, Miss Caroline B. Buell., Connec-
ticut; recording secretary, Mrs. Mary A.
Woodbridge. Ohio; assistant recording sec
retary, Mrs. L. NJ. N. Stevens, Name;
treasurer, Miss Esther Pugh, Ohio. An

state treasurer Col. Quay, who he thinks
Will receive almost the solid vote of the
Republicans, who will turn out at the polls
tomorrow. he said tonight that he
was better prepared to speak on
the subject of orange culture than on poll
tics. Having been informed that there
was considerable apathy among the Dem
ocratS OF this state, he remarked
that the feeling was quite
natural in view of the slow progress made
in the removal of Republican officeholders.
He had no idea what the course of the
United States senate would be with
regard to the appointments made
by the president that require the confrma-
tion of the senate but SO far as he was
concerned he believed the offices be-
long to the Democrats, and the
sooner they get them the better. If
there are not enough capable Democrats to
I'LL them it might be in order to call Oh the
Republicans to close up the gap. He
suggested the remote contingency of
enough Republican senators voting with
the disgruntled Democrats to rebuke the
presidents policy. The proper thing to
do was to let the Democrats take the
offices to which they are entitled and
hold them to rigid official accountability.
Senator Cameron thinks his improved phys
ical condition will enable him to set through
the coming session Of the United States
senate.

AN ANEcDoTE BY MR. LOWELL
His Pleasant Dealing With a Man
of the Fine Castilian Courtesy.

of the Fine Castilian Courtesy.
In the course Of dinner at the country
place of ex-Minister John Welsh, Mr.. Low
ell expressed very high admiration for the
Spanish, to whose court he once was minis
ter. For valor, intellectual ability, honesty
and grace and dignity of person, he said en-
Enthusiastically, the Spaniards rank with the
best people on the top of the earth. Apro-
DOS Of the honesty of the common people he
told this anecdote: When he left Madrid
and went to London he brought with him
man-servant who had attended him for
soma years. Afterward, the servant gave
Mr.. Lowell sum Of money, with the re-
quest that it be forwarded to his brother in
Spain. Mr.. Lowell took the money and
offered receipt, but the servant seemed to
be panied by the proceeding and to consider
the tender of the paper reproach.
s'Why," said he, drawing himself up, 81
am an honest man. L do not want the
paper. / would not take advantage OF the
absence of the paper to cheat you, Senor."
But do you understand" said the ex-
minister. "This is simply business af-
fair. The paper will protect your in
terests."
.'No; my interests are protected"
s'But your brother, then, he would like
to see the money accounted for"
my brother is an honest man, too"
ssWell, then, would like you to take
the receipt for my own satisfaction"
''You, Senor? Are you not also an hon
est MANI"
Lowell despaired of making the trustful
and picturesque Spaniard understand and
forwarded the money as it stood. In few
weeks ne received letter from his serv-
ants brother. couched in hyperbole of
Spanish politeness, thanking him for the
gracious ''gift" of Philadelphia let
ter in the Chicago Tribune.

a Day of Thanksgiving.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 2.-The following
proclamation was issued to-day:
To the People of the United States of
America; a Proclamation: The American

thankful to Almighty God, whose watchful
care and guiding hand have been manifested
in every stage of their natural life, guarding
and protecting them in time of peril and
safety; leading them in the hour of darkness

nation thus favored should, on one day in
every year for that purpose especially ap-
pointed, publicly acknowledge the goodness
of God, and return thanks to Him for all His
gracious gifts. Therefore, L, Grover Cleve-
land, president of the United States of
America, do hereby designate and set apart
Thursday, the 2eth day of November, instant,
as day of public thanksgiving and prayer,
and do invoke the observance of the same by
Gll the people of the land.
