TWENTY YEARS OF HISTORY
Dangers and Triumphs Of Our Gov
erument-The Two AssassinatiOns.

Mr.. Blaine's second and concluding
volume of Twenty Years in Congress,
is out, and perhaps the wisest words Ia
the volume form its conclusion. Fhey
are as follows:
The National Government has IN
these twenty years proved its strength
in war, its conservatism il peace. The
self-restraint which the citizens OF the
Republic exhibited in the hour OF need,
the great burdens which they bore IN
der the inspiration of public duty, the
public order which they maintained oy
their instructive obedience to the COM
mand of law, all attest the good goverH-
ment of self-gOverning people. Full
liberty to criticise the acts OF persons
in official station, free agitation OF all
political questions, frequent elections
that give opportunity for prompt settle
ment of all issues, tend to insure popu-
lar content and public safety. No gsv>
ernmert of modern times has encoun>
tered the dangers that beset the Unltet
States, or achieved the triumphs where's
with the Nation is crowned. The asssS-
sination of two Presidents, one lnau-
gurated at the beginning, the other at
the close of this period, while a cause OF
profound National grief, reflects no dis
honor upon popular government. The
murder of Lincoln was the maddening
and aimless blow of an expiring reoet>
lion. The murder of Garfield was the
tatuous impulse of a debauehed cor
science if not disordered brain. Nell
ther crime had its origin in the political
institutions or its growth in the social
organization of the country. Both crimes
received the execratiOn of all parties
and all sections. In the universal hor-
ror which Trey inspired, in the majestic
of law, which they failed to
disturb, may read the strongest proof or
the stability of the Government which
is founded upon the rights, fortified oy
the intelligence, inwrought with the
virtues of the people. For asit was said
of old. wisdom and knowledge shall De
stability. and the work of righteousness
shall be peace!

MINNESOTA cLrR HorsE. ST. PAUL.

1t Is three storit> high, with basement It
is in a sort OF mixed up renaissance style of
architecture, uuilt of red pressed brick and
brown sandstone, with terra Gotta trimmings,
1t has a grand stairway, billiard DOM,
card room. dining room, etc, furnished with
taste and luxury.
As long ago as 1869 the Minnesota club
was founded. Gen. Sibley, the Indian fighter,
the man for whom the Sibley tents we7s
named, was its first president. Gen. Han
cock was prominent member while he was
stationed here. The organization was dis
banded for time, but resurrected again. In
1882; the matter of building a club house was
seriously resolved on, and subscriptions were
started. The lot on which the structure is
built Is in size 5Ox13S feet. To give you some
idea of the value of corner lots out here it
may be mentioned that $4,000 was
paid for the ground in 1888. Con-
siderable of the lot is left unoccupied for
future growth and building. A local paper
says that membership in this club is an ac-
knowledged passport to best society. 1t is
proposed to limit the number of members to
800. The formal opening has not yet taken
place, but it will shortly be held, when best
society will be represented by both sexes.
All the appurtenances for elegant living
and feasting are found in the building. The
kitchen, storerooms and cafe of the club res
taurant are in the basement. The handsome
leather-covered furniture is all stamped with
the artistic club monogram IN. c." The
hangings are of silk, each apartment being
furnished in a different color from the rest.
For table use there are over $50 pieces of sill
verware. These, like the elegant china, were
specially designed for the club and stamped
with its monogram. There are Wilton carpets
on the first and second floors.
Gen. H H Sibley, now white-haired and
white-bearded, is still president of the organi-
zation Stanford Newell is first vice-preSident.
He was one of the officers Of the old organi-
Zation. MORTIMER WARREN.

feeling at pit Of the stomach,
with unsatisfied craving for
food; heartburn, feeling OF
weight and wind in the stom-
sch, bad breath, bad taste in
the mouth, low spirits, general

JOnN hELL1 hE6lDENCE. NEW 1Ohk-
In 1854 he was elected to the thirty-fifth
congress He resigned his seat before his last
term was completed to take the office of
sheriff of this county, to which he had been
elected 1t was while in congress that Gen
CaSs, President Buchanans secretary of state.
spoke of him as Honest John Kelly which
he has been commonly called since. In 1868
he was chosen the candidate for the mayor
atty in opposition to Bill Tweeds Tammany
Hall candidate, but an awful burden of do
mestic affliction in the loss of his wife and son
compelled him to withdraw and take his two
daughters--all that was left of his family-to
Europe for his own health as well as
theirs. He remained away three years:
and during his absence New York city
was given over wholly to the plunder
of the Tweed ring Prominent men like Mr..
Tilden, Seymour, Hewitt and Belmont sought
Mr.. Kelly to help them in this crisis He had
vowed never to again enter politics Their
opportunities continued for a year. till at last
he entered the fight, and while Mr.. Tilden
and Charles O'Connor attacked the Tweed
ring in the legislature and in the courts.
Mr.. Kelly had hand to hand tussle with
them in Tammany Hall, their citadel, and
routed them, as is well known. This gave
him a prestige which he has held since. An
idea of the tremendous power this ring
welded may be obtained from the fact that
they gave employment to 1900 persons and
disbursed S3O,O0O,0O0 annually. In 1876 Mr..
Kelly was appointed comptroller of the city,
and not only stopped the debt Of the city in
creasing, something unprecedented, but actu-
ally reduced it 81, 900 during his term of
office Mr. Kelly's career for the past tea
years is more familiar to the reader. In pri-
vate life he is the most convivial of cornpan-
ions Temperate, witty, good story teller
and possessed of a flexible baritone voice,
with which he has often enlivened political
gatherings "
In 1876 Mr.. Kelly remarked, and has two
children, boy and girl, to brighten his
home. s. H. HORGAN

catmists that even children will recognize it.
/ know for a fact of the editor of an illus
trated paper, who at one time instructed his
artists to remember that when timely sub
jects did not present themselves, a car
toon on John Kelly was always in order, and
/ have seen him on street car perusing this
very paper, and watched the merry twinkle
in his eye when he found humorous repre-
sentation of himself. Johns strong charac
teristic was his unostentatiousness, and fol
that reason people know very little about his
private life
Meeting Mr.. J. Fairfax Mclaughlin on
Broadway the other day we talked about the
old ''boss." Mr. Mclaughlin had been as
sociated with Mr.. Kelly for some thirty years
and has published his life. He said: YES;
probably know more of Mr. Kelly than any
living man. He was born in New York city,
April 90 1922 His father died when he was
s years old.
When The New York Herald was in it,
infancy, young Kelly walked in to the
Office one day and asked the elder
Bennett if he wanted an office boy. Ben
nett was good judge of character and
quick in deciding He talked with the youth
a few minutes then told him to go to work
He became a great 1avorlte WIN bennevt, anu
when at length he grew older and determined
on learning a trade, so as to better support
the large family that was depending on him,
Mr.. Bennett offered him strong inducements
to remain, and on parting with him predicted
that he would succeed anywhere. The elder
Bennett was as strong friend of Kelly's as
the present Bennett is bitter enemy Kelly
learned the trade of soapstone cutting and
crate setting, at which he afterward
made considerable fortune. He proved
TO be a remarkably shrewd business
man and his faith in the future of New York /
city was so great that with every 500 or
$500 he would get. he bought lst up town,

The residence of the Russian legation is
rented building, but a stately private resi-
dence The Russian minister is Baron Charles
de Struve, who is out of the country most of
the time The affairs of the realm of the
White Gar, what little there are, are in
charge of Mr.. Alexandra Iswolsky, secretary
of legation The fine house in the picture is

Monsieur Theodore Roustan is the French

tiary That is the full official title of the boss
representative of a foreign court The minis
ter from our sister republic across the water is
a dark, lively individual whom the ladies like
very much. For one thing, they are sure he
is bachelor Most of the diplomatic corps
pose as bachelors in Washington, although it
is said that many have left wives and fami
lies behind them. The bachelorhood of
member of the diplomatic corps here is very
uncertain quantity.
The German minister, Baron Won Alvens-
leben, is another single man, but he keeps
house to himself in the mansion owned by his
government on Fifteenth street.
The italian minister is Baron de Fava, who
tries to make believe that diplomacy in
America amounts to something, but he can't
make it out He is handsome, dark eyed,
white haired man.

DRYING FISH.

All fish are cut open, and the entrails re-
moved before packing on board the vessel
When cargo is obtained of from $1,000 to
$1,000 pounds of fish, the vessel sails for its
harbor; here the fresh fish is shipped in re-
fTigerator cars to market, and that intended
for drying, smoking, or packing in brine is
turned in to immense warehouses on shore
The Illustration presents scene in one of the
yards where the Goldfish are dried This is
done by exposing them on flakes" for day
or so in the open air. In case of rain, the
fish are collected in piles, and covered with
the odd-shaped boxes shown in the llustra-
ton. The dried cod is fed into a machine.
which cuts it into bricks for packing at the
rate of 10 pounds minute Then there are
smoke houses where the haiibut and mackerel
are cured. Some of the packing concerns
have their own vessels. One possesses fifteen
schooners, worth about $4,000 each. The
total catch of mackerel for one year is
about 900 barrels Of fish 1000, 600
pounds is a fair annual average catch.
This will give some idea of the magnitude of
