Department Clerks and Their Votes.

Specfhi to the lndianApols journal
WASHINGTON, Sept 22.-The question which
has occupied the minds Of employees in the de-
partmsnts fer several weeks-namely, whether
they will be permitted to 60 homo and vote in
Novsmber-has been practically settled in the
affirmative. At least nineteen ont OF twenty Of
the Democratic employees who have entered the
service under this administration will cast their
votes The hold-over Republicans could also
90 home to vote. In most instances, IL they were
no, afraid to do so. Whether their fears are
we'll founded is conjectural. A number Of them,
fearful that Harrison may he elected and they
will not stand well with the pew administration
because they made effort to bring about it's
success, are pairing with Democrats employees
The Republicans in the departments are better
eontented TO pair than to go home and vote. for
not only the reason they do not run any risk of
being termed Offensive partisaps," but because
they save the expsnss they would incur going to
their homes The departments will be almost
iepopulated for about week before and after
the election In November The business in the
various executive branches OF the government
is already being arranged with view TO PER-
mittirg as many male clerks to take leaves OF
absence possible. The women In the depart
men,s have been given to understand that they
must be at their posts of duty 1T election time.
that those who desire to 60 home to vote may
be permitted to do so

MINOR MATTERS.
A Scheme OF Retaliation Which Causes q
Great Deal of Amusement.

A Scheme OF Retaliation Which Causes q
Great Deal of Am mus ement.
Special to the Indianapolis Journal
WASHINGTON, Sept PA great deal of amuse-
ment has been created in diplomatic circles over
the announcement in the local papers that the
Treasury Department has concluded to retaliate
upon the republic of Costa Rica for alleged dis
ordinations against the United States by that
country In the Secretary's letter OF ipstruc-
sions TO customs officials he says: "The cargoes
OF Costa Rican vessels entering the United
States will be subjected to the discriminating
duties levied by Section 25Ol, Revised Statutes,
as embodied in the act OF March 3, 1883" The
amusement over this action OF the Secretary is
created by the knowledge that the little repub-
lie OF Costa Rica has not single vessel sailing
under its flag. Its commerce is so small and its
ports so few toat no one has yet been found with
enterprise enough TO start into ship-buildipg
The only boats owned by the people of
Costa Rca are tenders which carry the bananas
and coffee from the two OF three ANAL ports
to vessels 20 the harbors. All shipments are
carried swsy from the country In English.
French, German and American bottoms. SO tha
the absurdity Of the retaliation act OF Secretary
FAirchild u manifest upon its face. Isisrs-

MRS. sHERIDAN'S INCOME.
Said To BE Less Than $1,000 q Year-Why
She Is Not PeDsioned.

She Is Not PeDsioned.
Washington Special.
The statement copied into the World yester-
day that Mrs. General Sheridan Is in receipt OF
. handsome income from the estate left by her
husba seems very far from tho truth. One OF
the executors says her total income amounts to
less than 81 .0O0-a little over $500 year. After
the death OF her husband she had practically no
ready money. She had paid all the expenses Of
his long illness, and the nature OF these may be
imagined from the fact that there were at one
time thirty.six persons, physicians. nurses, at
tendants and others, to be provided for In the
house.
Mrs Sheridan Is still living quietly at Non.
quitt, but will return In time put her children
In school at the Visitation Convent here There
are four OF these children, whose education
must be provided for now, and 1t is we'll under
stood that IL the proposed pension is not voted
by this Congress Mrs. Sheridan will be COM
PEELED to give MP her homo. with all its sssoc!a-
tions with her husbands last years and illness,
and 60 into a far less comfortable residence. 1t
is perfectly well understood that great major
ity in both Senate md House are anxious to
vote the pepsion, and that the only obstacle to
its immediate passage is ths opposition Of Chea-
die, Republican member from Indiana and of
Kilgore, the irrepressible member from Texas
In the present state of business in the House a
single objection prevents consideration of any

The doll doctress, of Leipzig, Germany,
died recently. Mrs. Emma F. Schneider
had buried her husband and only child
many years ago. After her bereavement
she felt an irrepressible love for children,
which she tried to satisfy. Her poor lit
tie girl had left few dilapidated dolls.
She proceeded to fix them and gave them
to few little girls, who repaid her for
her kindness by going frequently to visit
her. When their dolls got broken they
again applied to her to restore them,
which she did. Soon all sorts of dolls
were brought to her to be fixed, which
occupation gradually developed into a
regular and paying business. Her little
rooms were soon filled with dolls which
covered the floor, the tables and chairs.
And busy among the heaps the old, stoop-
ing little woman moved about and doc
tored the dolls, putting in an eye here, an
arm or foot there; making new wigs for
the bald heads and stuffing the body and
limbs which had lost their roundness; re-
storing every doll to primitive youthful
ness. Thus she was known to all the
children of Leipzig as the doll doctress.-

Wickedness in Brazil.

Sabbath in Para is holiday, and not
a holy day in any sense. Beside the daily
morning mass, very seldom is there any
service in the Roman Catholic church.
Sunday morning many of the women att
tend this mass; but the men almost
universally stay away; some remain at
home to work, but many more devote the
day to drinking and the game. Those
who wish to spend the day more quietly
visit friends or take their families to
Marco de Legua. much frequented re-
sort three miles from the center of the
city, reached by both horse and steam
car. Steam cars only run to this resort,
however, upon the Sabbath and other
public holidays. In the evening twelve
large churches, one of these the massive
cathedral of the bishop, have closed doors,
while both theatres. with seating ca
pacity of at least 1000, are crowded to
their utmost. Gambling dens and
billiard and drinking saloons all do a
thriving business, while the harlot
watches at her window for the footsteps
of the passer-by.-Rev A. C. Smith in
