Money for tho Hendricks nIonument,

John Holman, of Indiana, who has
been engaged in organizing the agen-
cics for the collection of the Hendricks
monument fund, reports very favora-
bic news from all quarters. The
original idea, he says, was to try and
raise fund Of 100000. To accom-
plish this ten thousand agencies were
established and an average of ten dol
lars each was desired. The contribu-
tions were to be as small as people
wanted to give. The time set for the re-
port was the first of April, and quite q
number of reports have already been
received from small agencies of from
$l2 to $l5. About $4,000 viii. be the
result in Washington aud perhaps as
much from Philadelphia and twice as
much from New York. On the basis
OF present returns the fund will be up
wards Of $150,000.

SERVICE in each house was held by the
chaplainS alternately. But with the
era Of the war rose a theory that the
chaplain must belong to a certain
| party. AS one party was decidedly IN

the chaplain must be Republican.

WHY SHOULDN'T SHE DANCE:

WHY SHOULDS'T SIZE DANCE.
a good deal of discussion is going on jus:
now regarding the rumored intention of the
presidents wife to have dancing parties in
the White House during the present winter,
and. curiously enough, she has in some
quarters been severely criticised for her
alleged intention. 1t is difficult to see upon
what grounds the sharp tongue6 critics base
their disapproyal Certainly the presidents
official residence would lose nothing by the
presence within it at stated intervals of the
flower of the comtry's youth and beauty.
engaging in the stately minuet or even in
the more vigorous movement of the rhythmic
waltz. Certainly there would be no loss of
dignity in the presidents countenancing
such proceeding. and lie would not have
to look long in the records of the
earlier presidents to find a precedent
for his action. Mrs. CLEVELAND.
too. is young and supposedly possessed of
the abundant spirits and the love OF gaYety
which rightfully and properly belong to
one of her years. The etiquette of her posi-
ton fGr5ids her acceptance Of invitations to
dancing parties. SD why should she be eX-
cluded from the enjoyment of them in what
is for the time being her own house. The
country has taken a great fancy to the presi-
dents youthful wife. who once claimed ST.
Paul as her residence. and if she has set her
heart upon enlivening the tedious routine of
official receptions with coy little cOtillionS,
X would have the president understand that
the Withholding of his permission is some
thing Of which it cannot approve.
