A Disappointed omce.seeker.

Annie B. Strange, a young woman from
Nebraska City, last evening walked into
Central Station, says the Cincinnati Com
mHcidl Gazette, and asked to be given
lodging for the night. 70 Lieutenant
Fisher, who was in charge, she explained
that she was penniless and was endeavor-
ing to reach her home. She had just ar
rived from Washington, ID. O., whittier
she had gone in the hope of securing a
position in the Government Printing
Office, but was disappointed Having ex-
pended her small resources, and finally
meeting with disappointment, she threw
herself on the meTCies of the authorities
who kindly furnished her with ticket for
this city.
From here she will be given a ticket for
ST. Louis, and in that way work her way
home. She is rather good-looking
and evidently intelligent women, about
twenty.three years of age After hearing
her story Lieutenant Fisher caused her to
be sent to the Home of the Friendless for
the night.

The Mills Tariff Bill.

This important bill win doubtless pass
to-day in the House Of Representatives by
a strict party vote. The voters of this
country have had ample opportunities to
Judge Of its true merits. 1t has been fully
debated by all the prominent Representa-
tives of both parties, and their discussions
have been heralded to the uttermost parts
of the United States. There never has
been a question before Congress Of more
importance than this: whether it shall be
high or low tariff.
Thus the great political gauntlet has
been thrown down, and the parties will
fight it out on this line. The millions of
voters of this country are after all the
final arbitrators of these important politi-
cal questions.
The Government would be safe under
either of the Presidential candidates, Sc
says Mr.. Tharp, at s1S street, who is an
acknowledged authority on these politi
cal subjects, if the majority of men
would drink no other stimulant but fine
old rye Berkeley, which is beyond ques
ton the best tonic in the National Capital

General Ordway of the National Guard
prepnringto Move.

ItepufinB 10 move
General Ordway of the National Guard
District Of Columbia, and hisstalr, are pre-.
pairing to move from the Winder building
annex to the structure recently occupied
by the Paymaster-General of the Army at
the northeast corner Of Pennsylvania
avenue and Seventeenth street, and not
to the Winder building as rumor has IL.
Ihe building is four stories in height,
has numerous Offices and will he well
suited Tor the headquarters of the Dis
trict National Guard.
The top floor will be occupied as the
school Of the soldier" General Ordway
will have the second or third floor and
Adjutant General Bigelow will have an
entire floor to himself and his clerks.
The building is undergoing extensive re-
pairs and will be ready for occupancy in
about ten days.
No appropriation has been made by
Congress for armory rent, but some of the
National Guard officers have pledged
themselves to pay the rental and cost of
rcfitting. General Ordway Is well pleased
with the location--more so, perhaps, be-
cause it was through his foresight and
constant effort that the building was Sc
cured.
1t is intended that the officers of the
different battalions shall have rooms as
signed to them in which they can transact
the ordinary routine business connected
with their commands
