Garrison, the we'll known Jockey, who
has successfully ridden many OF the noted
horses of the turf TO victory, has been mere
during this week on his wedding tour.
He has stopped at one of the large hotels
and has created quite sen alton by his
appearance. He looks q mere boy. and
naturally is a mere featheTweight, but he
is a good looking little fellow aud has mar
ried a very pretty little wife. She ID young,
very young, and has red rosy cheeks and
pretty soft hair and seems immensely
proud Of her Jockey husband The day
after their arrival they came into the
breakfast room together looking as happy

blossom colored morning wrapper and he
had on checkered suit OF clothes and q
pair of yellow alligator slippers. The ladies'
in the house looked at The pair as they
walked up the long aisle of the dining
room behind the big head waiter and won

The bride since that time has not appeared
in her wrapper but the groom has worn bis
slippers rep ularly to dinner. The bride has
a large number of handsome dresses and
wears new ore every day. Garrison Is
worth considerable money and the pair are
as happy as two turtle doves.

The day the fuss was raised IN the
House of Representatives in regard to the
admittsnce TO the floor, ofpeop!e not En-
titled to the privilege, doorkeeper Don-
aldson sent word at once TO all the door
keepers OF the entrances TO deny admit
lance to every one, except members,
clerks, and those who were righttIlly en-
titled to the floor, aud that they must er-
force the rule Of the House in regard to
exmembers registering. Mr.. Donaldson
order Was to make the doorkeepers more
careful Soon after the order WAS received,
rather stout cockeyed man presented
himself at one of the doors OF the House
and started 10 go in. The doorkeepsr
stopped him and sa d, IL have to beg you
to 90 around to the reception room and
register with the doorkeeper there.
"Do you know ms2' inquired the cock
eyed gentleman.
Perfectly replied the doorkeeper, "but
my orders are strict. would gladly I'D
nit you, but have to obey the rules.
The cockeyed gentleman said lew
hard words, bus they we're Of no avail, and
be had to toddle off to register.
"Who ia that?' asked a oyStander of the

Yes, he does. Ia oil my intercourse

he can lay no claims 10 morality. But
he is the sternts: man ! ever cav. You
can see muscle move or discover the
slightest agitation in a moment Of excite
ment. That is ore reason why he is such
a good poker player. You could no more
tell whether he is trying to bluff you with
two little pairs OF whether he had a full
hand than you could tell how the wind will
blow next week. And what is more, you
never know, unless you take up his cards,
what he has He just throws them down,
rakes in the pot and goes along as if it

Pages in the Senate and house have be-
gun to reap their little harvest Of specula
ton in the way OF placing prominent po'
liticsl speeches. When member deliV.
ers q speech that attracts good deal Of
attention and contains desirable sentiment
to be indicted into campaign, page is
sure to 60 around TO thai member aud &C.
cure the privilege Of disposIng Of the
speech TO other members who want it for
distribution in their district.
For instance, the speech delivered by
Col. Henderson OF Iowa, in the House
few days ago on pension legislation, was
considered by the Republican members as
q capt. al thing tn send out into dIstricrs.
So page solicited the Republican mem.
bers until he had orders for many thOus,
and copies Of it. They took from 500 TO
5000 copies The speech can be irsuked,
giving it free dislributioH, and will be
read by more than 100000 voters, IN all
probability.
The Government Printer furnishes copies
of speeches, reports, etc for ten per cent
above actual cost Of paper and press work,
the matter beng already in type. The
pages charge the members subscribing for
the speech or report a slight advance from
this, look after the delivery Of the copies,
and thereby make money. A page told
me the other day be made ! 10 in one day
off orders Tor one speech. Sometimes,
wnen the orders are very large, the work
is taken to a private printer, who doea it
cheaper than the Government.
