WASHINGTON LETTER !
What Is Going On At The Ma
tional Capital

The weather here during the past
few days has been very cold. L
believe it is the coldest / have ever
experienced. 1t showed here We'd
nesday afternoon, and since that
time there has been good sleighing.
While waiting for a street car at the
corner of Seventh street and Pennsyl-
vania avenue Thursday evening. l
noticed two policemen at that corner
who were stationed there to keep the
people from being run over by sleighs
while crossing the avenue. The sleighs
were so thick that it was almost impos-
sible for a person to cross the avenue.
A serious coasting accident occurred
last night near the corner of Sixth
and G. streets, northwest. VIM. j.
Fowler, of No. S15 c. street, South
west, with eight other gentlemen, was
coasting on the Sixth street hill with
bob sled. They had started down
the hill, the sled running at a rapid
rate, when Fowler, who was guiding,
lost control of it and it collided with
a tree. The whole party was thrown
off and lay stunned for a few moments,
but all recovered except Fowler, who
lay groaning with pain. A special
officer who had witnessed the accident,
hurried to his assistance, and found
that he was very seriously injured.
TIE officer sent for an ambulance and
a physician, and on the arrival of the
latter it was found that Fowler had
literally mashed his foot in the acci-
dent. When the sleigh struck the
tree Fowler's foot had evidently struck
the curbstone and had been fractured
in two places, the bone having been
driven up into the flesh. None Of the
others were injured with the exception
of few bruises.

From Paola Kansas) paper we clip
the following obituary of a lady well
known in Jackson County:
DEATH OF MRS. JOYCE.
near this city on Sunday, January 1st,
after short sickness. This is indeed a
sad bereavement to the children and other
relatives, as it seems but short time
since her husband, Mr.. Andrew Joyce,
died.
Mrs. Joyce was born in Jackson County,
Ohio, November 18th, 1886, and therefore
was 81 years of age. Since 1870 she was
an honored resident of Miami County,
where in behalf of the welfare of her
large family, she put forth the best of
mothers effort to do good, honestly earn
and save up property, and respectfully
treat all her neighbors. She leaves ten
children to now mourn the death of both
father and mother.
The funeral Wednesday was generally
attended, Notwithstanding bad roads, and
the large assemblage of friends at the last
sad rites of the grave attested in meas
ure the high esteem and respect accorded
Mrs. Emily W. Joyce
"Light be the turf of thy tomb,
May its verdure like emeralds be!
There should not be shadow of gloom
In aught that reminds us of thee.
Young flowers and an evergreen tree
May spring from tine spot of thy rest;
But no cypress nor yew let ussee,
For why should we mourn for the blest?"

Robert Henderson died at his home a
short distance below Portsmouth few
days ago. Mr.. Henderson resided for
many years in this County. He was
quite eccentric, and was well known.
Some years ago his mind became some
what impaired, and he was taken to Col
umbus, but returned in short time as
cured. Though odd in his manner of ad-
dress, Robert Henderson was really a
warm hearted man, true in his friend
ships, and only seeking the good of man
kind. He was a prominent member of

The death of Thomas Easterling by ac-

sad death of his brother, John Easterling,
in the 91st Ohio We think it was near
Winchester, Va. The boys were in camp,
and John Easterling had been detailed to
go on picket. In fixing up ration to
take along, John discovered that he was
out of bread. Going to tent occupied
by mess of which Marshal Jared Mar
tin of this place was member, he asked
the loan of ration of bread, and loaf
was handed him. In the tent was a car
bine that had been picked up on the bat
tie field, and one of the soldiers playfully
picked this up and drew it on John, COM
manding him to "lay that bread down, or
he would shoot him." Easterling started
to go away about his business, when the
soldier pulled the trigger and the weapon

Dispatches from several points in
Illinois aud Iowa say that the %locusts,
which are making their appearance in
such great numbers, are not molesting
fruit, grain Or vegetables as yet. The
only damage done is the killing OF
young and tender trees, many of which
die from the missions made by the
insects in depositing their eggs. The
secretary of the Iowa state agricultural
society says he has received informa-
ton from Muscatine that there are
millions of locusts in that county, but
no special damage has yet been report
ed. 1t seems to be the general opinion
that the locusts in eastern Iowa are not
of the seventeen-year variety, but of a
harmless class that come around fire.

AMEN /!

To kill off the woman suffrage craze,
there ought to be a law making MARI
age compulsory. Men and women who
remain single after reaching thirty
years Of age should be drafted into the
army. The government ought to say,
.'Here, Smith. you have drawn No.
316; her name is Jones; hunt her up
and marry her." This would be hard
on some of the men, but a man who
refuses to choose a wife for himself
ought to be sacrificed for the good oi
society. There is nothing SO discour-
aging TO Il woman as a house full OF
children.
