court handed down three opinions yesterday
afternoon, one affirming the decision of the
the court below in declaring unconstitutional
the board of control bill passed by the last

lay in the allegation that 1t deprived the peo-

The other decisions upset the police and

Souvenir.
WASHINGTON CITY, April 25-Not q few
of the visitors to the White House, especially
the women, have positive feeling Of venera-
ton for the president, and some of them do
very odd things while under the influence of
his presence. The medal up to date is held
by stylish little lady, resident of New
York city. She was at the White House
yesterday waiting with the rest of the crowd
for the president to come down stairs to the
reception, when an idea hit her hard She
rushed up to an usher and inquired as to the
whereabouts of the nearest glove store The
information was given and off she dashed,
returning in fifteen minutes with a new pair
of gloves on her pretty hands Scrupulous-
ly avoiding contact with any Of the crowd
she at last reached the president, and when
he grasped her slim little fingers she brought
her left hand into service and completely in
closed the presidents hand She got a little
more shake than most Of the rest of tho
Others did. Then she took off the gloves and
wrapped them up carefully in paper She
told Capt Densmore that she would keep
them under glass case and that while she
lived no other hands than her own would be
privileged to touch them.

WASHINGTON Cry, April 25-President
Harrison is physiognomist. He has much
confidence in his ability to read character
through the expression of the human face.
While the throng of eager office-seekers press
upon him and pour their arguments into his
ear, the president is carefully reading their
countenances. In this way he forms an idea
OF ohe men he has to deal with Mr.. Harri-
son has been a senator himself, and knows
how they are cajoled or coerced into recon-
mending parties for appointment of whom
they know little or have little confidence In.
He consults the congressman of his party,
but has almost as much confidence in his own
Judgment Of human nature as in their recon-
mendations When he has studied a mans
face and cross-questioned him, if the impress
sion made is not favorable it would take q
great deal of argument and very strong in
huence to make him think favorably of the
man for appointment
CrOss-Q Questions His Visitors.
Mr. Harrison is an accomplished cross-ex-
aminer. He acquired this at the bar, and has
quite reputa ton in the Indiana courts for
the sharpness of his questions What he
can't make out Of the candidates face he en-
beavers to learn by cross-questioning his
hackers. When senator or member goes
to recommend the appointment of a constitu-
ent for some office Mr.. Harrison's first aim
Is to ascertain by carefully put questions
whether the senator or member is really aux-
ious about the matter. Satisfied as to this
he proceeds to discover his motive in asking
the appointment, and whether he really
knows the man. All this is done by diplo-
matte questions. Mr.. Harrison remembers
what he learns by this examination of the
multitudes. A hundred cases are brought to
his attention each day, but he seldom knows
what he will do in any of them until the mo-
ment he is about to act. He then sends for
the papers in a certain case. As he reads
over these his personal impression of the can
didates goes long way toward influencing
