Handsome Miss Cleveland.

1t is encouraging to state, in the midst Of
gloomy forebodings, that Miss Cleveland is
Internationally handsome. This may not
have its true value in the opinion of outsiders,
but with cloud with silver II ming and cy-
clone, too, with the tariff and civil service
and a dozen other pestlferous things bothering
the administration, the consciousness that a
good looking women presides at the White
house is full OF balm. She always had an ex-
cellent face, and now that she has eschewed
short hair and wears three puffs and two curls,
she is positively handsome. 1t base uzzled
certain able intellects in both parties how Miss
Cleveland managed to arrange the charming
superstructure on the top OF her head. Moth
ing is easier. Did you ever notice gentlemen
In the minstrel business who personate female
characters with a blonde wig ont They comb
the hair up straight to the top Of the head and
tie It, That gives q good hold for the rest
Now, that is the way Miss Cleveland does, and
the effect is remarkably good.

Sarcastic WaShingtonians,

Sartirists are po&ing sharp sticks al
the hangers-on to Washington societ,
for having announced that they had
postponed dinners, receptions or tea
parties on account of the death of "poor.
dear Miss Bayard." Some of thos who
gave notice in the papers that their en-.
tertainments were postponed have never
crossed the Bayrd threshold, either
here or at Wilmington, and others, who
only enjoyed bowling acquaintance
VITA the deceased, made ridiculous dis.
plays Of their grief. One lady. who IL
somewhat famed for her cad Englisl
and her good punch, is said to have re
marked at her last reception: TRY .

"Any spokes loosei"
"No."

"No, this is pretty mld'lin' level"
"Do you always run at this galtf"
"No, we generally hump along little fast

"May ask you, then, what the trouble may
be!n
Certainly. We found a fine 2-year-old
steer stuck in trestle back here before you
got on, and stopped and helped 1t out. You
know that the rules of the road are that in
all such cases the animal belongs to the com
rany.
"But don't sec why that should make you
run so laundering slow"
"Why, you blame fool, we are taking that
steer along to headquarters, got 1t tied behind
and it amt used to leading and don't walk up
very well. Pm doing all can, got the brake

looking us in the face, said: ''Gentlemen"-

Hunting Stories.

A gentleman by the name of john

been quite hunter, told story that
once on time he saw fine turkey
gobbler on tree, and, taking sure aim,
he fired. Being good shot, and the
turkey not far of, he was surprised that
it flew away. Going under the tree on
which the turkey sat, it was found that
he had shot the fowls head clear from
the body, while the latter had flown
away.
A bystander declared it was true, for,
said he, Il was coon hunting in the

head of and the turkey flew away, and

WAR ON MCCORMICK.
Thirteen Hundred Men to Re Fed
 Ono Year.

CHICAGO, Feb. 24.-The Mccormick lockout assumed new aspect at the sec ret mass meeting of the employees held Tuesday night. There were present about 800 employees of the reaper factory. The session was q stormy one, and resulted in the adoption of a series of resolutions of the following purport: That & board be appointed consisting of representatives of the different trades to which everything pertaining to settlement shall be re- ferred; that no proposition will be entertained not looking to the reopening of the works with union men ill all de- partments; that the Mccormick firm signs guarantee limiting the powers of Superintendent Averill in discharging men who work in the interest of organized labor; aud, last that as Knights of I4a- bor, moulders and metal-workers, the men pledge themselves to stand together in consummating their purposes. The adoption of these resolutions, it is feared, does away with hopes of an carly settle ment.
 This actioa gives the locked-out mem bers of the Knights right to call upon local assemblies for aid, and it is clearly evident that such aid will be required at no distant day To feed and clothe the 1,300 men and others affected by the lock- out for twelve months, will cost it is esti- mated, not less than $1, ,Oo0, ,O0O, but the men say the money will be forthcoming nacesSaru

The guard wrote out pass to the celi-room, which he handed to Smith, telling him to give it to Reed. This he did and followed the deputy to the dungeon. At the door, as is customary, Reed began to search Smith. This made Smith angry and he rushed into the dungeon. Rsed warned him that he must submit. Smith then started to- ward Reed, when the latter drew his re- volver from his hip pocket and fired. Smith fell to the floor dead. The coron- CTS jury returned verdict that the kil.- ing was done by Reed during the per. formance of his duty.
