SHE DID NOT DANCE.
How Mr.. Chamberlain Came to Take
an Intaresr In Miss EndicOtt

How Mr.. Cham berlain Came to Take
an Interest In Miss Endicott.
From the Louisville Courier Journal.
The Secretary of State gave a dinner to the
commission, and those invited to meet them
were Mr.. Justice elect Lamar, Mr.. Justice Brad
ley, and Mr. Justice Field. The British minister
and Miss West issued invitations to meet simply
Mr.. C, anberlsin." Your correspondent was
standing near when Mr.. Chamberlain. arriving
from the dinner at II p. m, was introduced TO
Miss EndicOtt, she being the first lady Miss
West presented. 1t was Saturday night, and
the invitations read for o'clock. AS all
who enjoyed dancing in the beautiful
ball room of the legation knew that
the music would cease at midnight, they
were prompt in arriving and quickly deserted
the drawing room for the ball Miss West kept
her position near the door OF the middle draw
ing room to welcome lady guests as they en-
tered. For this reason only Miss Endicott and
a few Others who did not dance were with Miss
West when the gentlemen, in company with
Secretary Bayard. arrived. Miss Endcott is
very ready in conversation and soon as Mr..
Chamberlain was introduced a lively converse
ton ensued. The young lady has brilliant
color, light-brown hair and large blue eyes
She looked handsome in blue tuile over silk, and
so the Brtisher seemed to think, for he was in
no hurry to mingle with the guests and enlarge
his circle of new acquaintance.
Every one remembers what a social time
there there was during December, January snd
February. II was observed that the Secretary
or Var was always among the invited guests TO
dinners given to Mr.. Chamberlain, and when
ladies' were included his daughter was invited
Toward the close of February Mrs. Hit gave a
lunch 10 young ladies. While the party were
waiting in the drawing room for tardy girl
Mr. Chamberlain accidentally called. When
she did not arrive Mr. Chamberlain was invited
by tie hostess to take the vacant place. He
gladly accepted, and was given the seat
next to Miss Endlcott. He was
brilliant, and, being the only man among
more than dozen girls he made himself so
numerous that the male element appeared to
be largely in the majority. Not even after that
notable occasion could those present determine
wLet Ter the fair Priscilla had said yea or nay.
But when the other members of the fishery
commission noticed that their honorable chair
man fingered in Washington Gay after day when
their work was concluded aud the treaty sub
United TO the state department, they attributed
lis delay to unwiliingness to leave until he re-
ceived either dismissal from the daughter of
the Secretary of the Navy OF an iDtimation that
he might return 10 claim her as his wife

Three distinguished Englishmen are on
the sick list, and one of them, Mr.. John
Bright, may die at any time. The other
two are Mr.. Spurgeou, the great Baptist
preacher, and Lord Tennyson, the English
poet laureate. Hopes are entertained that
both will ultimately recover. Tennyson is
suffering from rheumatic fever, brought on
by his persistency in walking two miles
daily, regardless of the weather.

II is said that insurance companies don't
regard Presidents of tire United States as
good risks A story is afloat that a Wash

Cleveland for a $4,000 policy. He didn't

to his company for instructions. He was
told not to press the matter, as Presidents
were extra hazardous risks" and the ad-

A telegram from Philadelphia announces
that Mr.. Powderly will not accept a re-clec-
ton as general master workman of the
Knights of Labor. Two reasons urS given.
One is that his salary would be reduced
from s., 900 to $500. The other is that he
has been offered $4,000 year to become
connected with a New York newspaper,
either as an editorial writer or as a CORES
spondent who would travel through Europe
and write one letter week on the condition
of the foreign wage worker and the general

that Mr.. Powderly can be reelected to his

The New York Herald has introduced a
new feature in journalism. Its principal
headlines are quotations from the poets.
This may be very nice, and it may show
considerable familiarity with poetry, but
a serious objection to it is that person
must read a column article before he can
get connection, so to speak, with the head
line.

Harrison end Civil Service.

The postmaster at Macon has issued a cir
cular to his employees telling them not to be
in 4 hurry about resigning, as it will be
several months before their places viii be
wanted for adhere1ts IF the incoming ad-
ministration. 1t may be that they will not
be disturbed at all, if they are e!fic ent and
faithful. The postmaster, doubtless. will
have to G., but a very considerable per
centsge of his subordinates may stay.
There appears TO be a Widespread belief
that Gen. Harrison will turn out all the
democrats and fill their places with repuh-
licans. The impression may prove to be
mistaken on. In his letter # acceptance,
Gen. Hai riSon said: tine law regulat ing
appointments to the classified civil service
received my support in the Senate in the
belief that it opened the way to much
needed reform. | still think SO. Only TIE
interests of the public should suggest re-
movals from office. 1t will be my sincere
purpose, if elected, to advance the reform.
l. would be well for those who are talking
about a clean sweep to keep this extract
pointment. Gen. Harrison is not a man
whose opinions undergo a rapid change. He
believes in civil service reform, and he may
turn out to be just as good a civil service
reformer as President Cleveland is. Faith
full and efficient public Sc wants, therefore,
should not be in hurry to give up their
places, unless they see a chance to do better.

The late DR.. Hostetter left no will, though
he was several times a millionaire. 1t came
about in this way: He had bequeathed
$1,000, 900 for an art gallery in Pittsburg, but
he became angry because the city controller
had some of his property levied on to pay
security debt. The doctor thought the
action was hasty, as he would have paid the
debt anyway, and he at once tore the will
into shreds. He could not be induced to
make another.

will make no contest, unless it is shown
that the perforated tickets were in tended to

breakfast she goes for a long walk-fifteen,

gence that his father, Louis Z. Fish.
or, was dying OF his. homo in st. Paul.
Tuesday morning another telegram came
announcing that death had finished its

Wednesday morning.
Deceased was a Journalist OF consider
able note and many years experience.
He was born in Wrentha,n, Mass, in
1922. He went to st. Paul in 1858 and
assisted in getting out the first daily
paper published In that city-the Pho
neer. At the time Of his death he was
the editor of the Northwestern News
paper Union, and as an index to the posi-
ton ne occupied in the estimation Of hi.
brethren Of tn, press, he was but recent
ly chosen as president of tho St. Paul
Press club.
The Pioneer Press OF Tuesday pays
this tribute Of respect to his me,nory:
His was no brilliant or conspicuous
career. Character, not position, was the
measure Of his influence Upon men and
| upon his time. Mover the owner OF a
newspaper, his professional instinct
aud rare Judgment made him q powerful
factorin the conduct Of those upon which
he was employed. Alwaysa private cit
izen, his advice was sought and his crit
icism feared BY those high in official
place and strong in party authority.
Relatively q poor man, all his life, his
native saYacity and urquestioued integ-
ritv made him tho repository of the
secrets and the trusted counselor of men
OF wealth and commercial power. He
did the work life gavo him with simple
honesty aud untaltering fidelity to his
own high standard Of honor and truth.
1t was worthy work, we'll done. But tho
man was better than his work, and the
life he lived was worth moro than a,.y-
thing he did.
