SILLY STORIES ABOUT COMMISSIONERS TANNER e
RELATIONS WITH SECRETARY NOBLE.
Washington, April (SpeciaD. dispatches nom
Washington to Democratic and Mugwump newspapers
which all hostile to the interests Of the disabled
veterans OF the Union have represented that Com
missioner Tanner had boon brought up with short
turn" by Secretary Noble that the former had under
taken clean sweep In the Pension Bureau and that
the latter had intertered to prevent IT. that Secretary
Noble IS determined " to defeat Tanners proposed
raid on the Treasury" and much moro to the same
purpose 1t has been also stated that Commissioner
Tanner began operations by recommending the dis
missa OF 1877 persons the fact being that the list sent
by him to the Secretary Of the Interior contained
exactly three names. The dispatches referred
untrue In general as well in detail. Secretary
Noble today said that no and Commissioner Tanner
In perfect accord both Us to the administration
OF the Pension Bureau ard the pension laws. AS
every reader Of Tho Tribune knows, Commissioner
Tanner has found the Pension Bureau thoroughly
demoralzed by the weakness, ineflciency, personal
vanity and ambition OF the system Of favOritism
tablishcd and fostered by his immediate predecessor
He viii take no rash steps, and he will be cordially
and firmly supported by his official superior In HIS
efforts to correct existing abuses and place tho
pension service on an efficient and credtable footing
The assertions that there is any official misunder-
standing friction between him and Secretary
Noble, or that there has been for any,
simply untrue, and they the outcome of partisan
malice and Misrepresentation. 1t seems that some
OF the Physical Wrecks" pets In the Pension Bureau
sQuealed before they hurt Some OF them in the
last four years under Black have lost the art OF
minding their own Understanding which they
might do well speedily TO re5over.

This was the way we played the
game that we used TO call ''Aower-la-
dies" We gathered roses with stems
about two inches long and set them
down on their petals, and any one can
sec in a minute that they then became
beautiful ladies, with tall, slender
figures, lovely pink or crimson, satin
or velvet, skirts and little green over
skirts.
The men wero thorns from the
hedge, which stood up very nicely
when stuck in the ground. or else they
were bits * suck; but they were rather
stiff and unbending, were these gen.
tlemen, and really played very in
significant part in the flower ladies'
households.
Tho houses in which the ladies liv-
Cd were OF tho very simplest architect
ure; lust bits of stick or blades OF
grass laid together in squares TO inclose
rooms and halls. A green leaf made
a pretty bed, and tiny fiat pebbles
furnished beautiful chairs. Then a
chip served excellently for grand
amhogany table, and upon very small
mud-pies, frosted with sand, and mud
chocolate-chstards. in acorn-cups. and
loaves OF mud-bread, the flower ladies
lived luxuriously.
Cur indies were divided into two
families. My sisters family always
bore the surname OF Grey, and mine
was called Graham. The big Solfaterre
roses with the thick loose petals were
the grandmother5, because they had
wide laps for the babies to rest upon.
The common camask-roses were nice
comfortable mothers, who were careful
lest the children should get their feet
wet, and always had ready lovely mud
pies for the children when they came
home from school.
The Gloire-de- France roses were the
sweet young aunts, named Mabel, or
Irene, and the moss-rose5 and old
fashioned thorn-roses were the ugly
tempered aunts, called Jano or Maria.
There was q rose-bush that bore very
long, slender white buds. and one OF
these buds, because it could mt stand
up well, was always girl named Kate
who had hurt her spine. Lying on the
orange-leaf sofa, she bore her suffer
ings with touching fortitude,
Next came the children. The Greys
and Grahams had very large families
The picayune-roses camo in here, the
fullest blown kind being the eldest
girls OF about twelve, and from these
they went down through various ages
to the tiny, tiny bud that was the new
born baby rocked to sleep in velvety
rose-leaf. and so sensitive that all the
little flower children had to tread
lightly for fear OF waking her.-Eliza-
both Bislaad in st. Nicholas.
