Whole wheat, orpearl wheat, is one
Of the most delicious forms of cereal

being simply pulled forward in the
morning, the tin outside kettle filed
and the wheat cooked till breakfast
is ready. 1t is excellent with a half

COULDN'T FOOL HIM.
Smart Statesman From Texas VINO
Didn't Blow Out the Gas.


have Just heard another story about
n new Congressman, who like the stal-
wart Texan who blew out the gas when
no came on to begin the first session OF
the last Congress, halls from the SOUTH
west. He knew all about gas and,
when ioked about the experience OF
his colleague, swore that he was no
0reen one. and could not be caught
with any of the new tangled contrl-
vances of the hotels. On the eve OF
his arrival he did as much of the town
as could well be done in one evening
and came into his hotel very late. he
had carried has key in his pocket, ana
thought he would slip up to bed as ne
had been in the habit of doing at home
when out after the usual hour. lie
rot into his room all right after trying
his key in several wrong doors, reach
ed up to the chandelier after many ex-
perilnents and turned on the gas. Then
he struck a match and stuck it up to
the burner, but there was no response.
lie got chair and put his nose to the
burner, but could not detect the
faintest odor of gas. Feeling around
for another branch of the chan
delier he turned another stop cock,
when a brilliant light flashed in his
ewes before he could scratch match.
lie dropped off the chair and stared
aghast at the illumination. "Great
heavens" he exclaimed, "have / got
'em at last. Never shaw cash afore
'showould light itself. Bet hundred
zere's 10 light zere. I'll touch match
TO tin see"
After several attempts he got on
chair and put the head of match to
the light. Apparently he touched the
flame, but the match would not burn.
He tried another and another with SIM
liar results. lie tried TO blow the
flame, but there was no flicker. 1t was
a steady, strange glow, the like OF
which he had never seen before.
Cursing the quality of Washington
whiskey, he felt around his room until
he found his cane. Balancing himself
he aimed straight as possible at the
impish light and struck tremendous
blow. There was sound of crashing
glass and the light was gone. He slept
late the next morning and had some
thing brought to his room before he
was out of bed AS the waiter served
him that ebony worthy exclaimed:
''Hello, mister, how dye smash that
electric light?" AS the new Congress
man tells this on himself it must be
true. = Washington Correspondence

GOODS THAT WON'T BE DELIV-
Erred,

We have read the letter of Hon. John M.
Langston, colored, of Virginia, to Messrs.
James II. Hayes and others of Virginia,
also colored. They urged him to forget hi S
cruel treatment in the Fourth COMPRESSION
,ell district of Virginia last Fall and come
out in support of Malone for the sake of
the party" MI. Langston replies, in bliss
ful simplicity, that he will do SO, but in his
contest for his seat in congress he ''shall
expect the support of every Republican
member of the House of Representatives.
especially those of my own State" Mr..
Langston will be disappointed, and he may
rs well know it now. He has been assured
it is Said-nOt by Gen. Malone who has
takenno notice whatever of him--bu by some
OF the leading Republicans at Washington.
that if he stumps Virginia for Malone he
shall have the congressional support which
ne now says he ''shall expect Gen. Ma
none does not intend that the Hon. John
M. Langston OF any other Negro, shall
nave seat in Congress from Virginia, and
he happens to be able to have his way in
this matter. The Republicans have lust
l64 members i'll the House, counting the
two Republicans from Virginia. The Dem
ocrats have ISL members. The Committee
on Elections might report is favor of seat
ing Langston and every Republican in the
House, except these two from Virginia
vote for it, but if these I've voted against
it it would be settled against him. The vote
would then stand ayes 1872 noes 1853. Of
course every Democrat will vote against
seating Langston, for it is well understood in
Virginia that he did not get plurality of
the vote cast, and equally well that Gen. Ma
hone took the trouble to see that he should
not, and that his own candidate, Arnold
should get enough votes to render Lang
ston S defeat certain. To suppose that the
Hon. Geo. e. Bowden, Gen. Malone S right
hand man, and the Hon. 7. Baily Brown,
are going against the General in this mat
ter and let up the gates for flood of n egro
candidates for congress i'll each black dis
trict in the State, is a very far off hope
which Mr. Langston need not indulge in.
Whatever Quay and Dudley have promised
Langston, he Will not get a seat in Cong
reSs. That is Il matter that cannot be af-
fected by his canvassing for Malone OF
canvassing against Mahone-he is lust
about as likely to get it one way as the 9TH
