Editor Dana does not think the Presi-
dent was polite in refusing to let the in
quisitive Republican Senators ransack
departments for documents which they
have no right to. The San says: eff Mr..
Cleveland does not want the representa-
tives of the people in Congress to see such
letters as he receives in reference to the
administration OF the government, or in
reference to any other subject, he should
choose some private place of deposit. The
White House stove would seem to be
more appropriate than'the public files of
one OF the departments" 1t is rather Pc
culiar that the Sun did not suggest that
the President obtain healthy, we'll

II. President Cleveland is not averse to grant
ing him place, but the Indiana men want so
many other places for their constituents who
can do them some favor in the future that
they are not pushing East's claim as much as
might be. If you tell them that East ought to
have aposition they will say, Eyes, East is a
good fellow, and suppose he ought to have a
place, but you want TO be little careful abOut
East. and don't believe he can do the party
much good" The other day the President
was speaking about East to senator VoOr-
hees, when the Senator asked him if he had
heard about Easts stock speculation, The
President said he had not. Then Voorhees,
went on:
"Well, il is funny story, and IL happened
some years ago East was worth about $50 OOO
ana he concluded that he could make for
tune with it if he went to Chicago. He had a
friend who was somewhat interested with
him In indianapolis. and before he left that

the day he arrived IN Chicago he sent the fol-
lowing telegram 10 his friend:

Both the President and the Senator laughed
heartily over the story.

Mr.. Norwood,s speech.

Mr.. NorwOOd's speech on "Wednesday
made very excellent impression on the
House. 1t isn't often that a new member
can get the attention of that body, but
Mr.. Norwood appears 20 have mad it.
Indeed there are very few Of the old men,
bers who do not have to talk to empty
chairs when they make set speeches. Mr.
Norwood, however, was not unknown as
most new members are. He made a rep
utation in the Senate years ago.
His handling Of Henderson, the Iowa
demagOgue, was neat and effective. In
dealing with such men ridlcule is a
stronger weapon than argument. Mr..
NOrwood's speech gives HIM a place

Col. lngersoll will talk. He said to a
reporter the other day: 81 have talked
with Presidents and Senators and Con-
gressmen, and public men of all parties,
and have never yet found one of them
who was sincerely for civil service reform
as it is advocated and put into practice
now. have had Republican Presidents
read me their messages upon this subject
and laugh at the doctrines they declared"
This is indirectly a tribute TO President
Cleveland. who believes in practicing the
reform he has all along advocated.
Neither reform nor candor were expected
from the Republican Presidents when
dealing with great public questions.

THE PRAYER CURE.
Remarkable Statement of "A Reformed In
ebriate.
[Aul usta Ga Chronicle.l


While this region round about is being
seriously agitated on the temperance cues
ton, and Sam Jones and Sam Small are
about to appear on the scene, it may not be
inappropriate to briefly relate how one man
became total abstainer. He told me the
story thus: IL was possessed by the demon
drink and no persuasion of friends or re-
Elections of my own had any effect in re-
forming me. One day | went to New York
bent on tremendous carouse, and had It.
In four days / spent $3.50 for liquors of va
rious kinds and at the expiration of that
period my besotment may be better imagined
than described. Suddenly, on the fifth day,
while still labOriDg under madness caused
by alchohol, 1 experienced the strangest
sensation of remorse, and spirit was born
in me 10 lead better life. As if super
naturally inspired, rose trembling and yet
determined, from my bed, seized upon the
cutglaSs decanters and BEETLES containing
the fiery fluid and smashed them. Amid
that uncanny wreck, L raised my hands and
eyes to heaven swearing that by Gods grace,
of any intoxicating fluid, though
my life depended upon it. L grew
so i'll that doctor called upon me and pre-
scrbed brandy. | would not take 1t. lie
said 1 would die. / answered that at least my
death should be a sober one. After him, in
pIONlueDlIdl way, a OdluOIlldu CubclCu my
chamber and, divining the situation, took
instant steps to remedy it. He had me put
in a Turkish bath, and then gave me TO eat
some dried herb of his region that filled me
with extraordinary warmth and worked in
terBally like electric shocks. / rapidly re-
gained my health and right senses, and after
testing me severely, this mysterious friend
threw in my way several considerable sums
of money. L have not taken drop OF liquor
from that hour, and though, at this moment,
am in pecuniary difficulties, / would not
touch it If any one were to offer me all this
property round about, which is valued at
millions of dollars. Now, l learned after
ward, that my relatives, having exhausted
all known human means for my conversion,
had had recourse to divine aid. Three of my
family were Sisters of Mercy. Appeal was
made to their prayers. They offered up for
nee what is known in the Catholic church as
a 'Noyena,' that is, an act of devotion lasting
nine days. 1t was on the ninth day, at the
very moment the last petition was presented
beseechingly to the Almighty by these holy
women, that, hundreds Of miles distant IN
the very midst of my revel, was, by some
supernal power, led to the destruction OF my
| idols and permanent sobriety, which, with
heavens help, will never be violated, When
see other men drinking or when a tempta-
| ton is set before me, L behold the pale, an
| gelic faces of three religious women, clad IN
the black and white habiliments of their or
| der, with one hand on their rosaries and the
other raised in gentle admonition. Some
people call this superstition, but what saw
| ing superstition it was for mer'

The Use of Blinds on Horses.

horses want with blinds? Horses. like our
selves, want to see where they are going, and

HOUSEHOLD HINTS.

Meat Pie.-Take mashed potatoes, seasoned
with SALT butter and milk, and line baking
dish. Lay upon it slices of cold meat OF any
kind; add salt, pepper, catsup and butter, or
any cold gravy put in layer of potatoes
and another layer of meat in the same way
till the dish is full; have layer of potatoes

CALIFORNIAN Cream-1wo ounces of rasp-
berry jam, or jelly, two of red currant jelly.
two of sifted loaf sugar, the whites of two
eggs put into a bowl, and beaten with a
spoon for three quarters of an hour. This
makes very pretty cream, and is good and
economical.
Gelatine PuddiDg.-Half a box OF gelatine

the yolks OF four eggs and three tablespoons
ful Of sugar, and turn into the gelatine and
water. Have ready quart of boiling milk.
Pour the mixture into the milk and stir 1t
