General Sherman and the Hotel Clerk.


The other evening Gen. Sherman
went to a well-known hotel in New
YORK and inquired of the room clerk
if he could hire an umbrella, at the
same time explaining that he had
been caught out in his evening suit
and he feared rheumatism and other
complaints, The clerk didn't know
him, but he thought he could
well afford to take chances on
such an eminentlv respectable look
ing gentleman, and although the po.
lite clerk has a rotund figure and
weighs about two hundred and
twelve he gladly offered to loan him
his overcoat as we'll as his silyer-han

But" said the general, "you are
lending these things to an entire
stranger, and you ought to accept
some kind of a deposit to secure YOU
against dishonesty"

piled the clerk. II can't be deceived

for anything"

compliment, and he remarked casual

A COLD BLoopED COMMISSIONERS

A COLD FLOODED CoMMIssIoNER.
The best assurance which could be
given that Gen. Raum, the new Com.
missioner of Pensions, would run
that bureau on business basis was
this character" gwen him by mis-
friends when they presented his
name: 1--WE shall recommend him
to the President on the ground that
he Is cOId-booded. He was never
known to let his emotions run away
with him, and. though he was sob
der himself, and feels a proper in.
terest III his fellow-veterans, he is no
fool, and may be depended upon to
give us a conservative administration
of the Pension Bureau" There have
been two conflicting theories as to the
qualities demanded in Pension
C0mmissiO One was that formu-
lated by Gen. Harrison last year,
that he should discard the use of "the
arOthpcary'S scales" and restated by
Congressman Dingley, of Maine. in
his Lewiston Journal, at the time of
Tanners removal, that warm SYM
pathy with the boys in blue should
he found in an official position like
that Of Commissioner of Pensions"
The other was wpl-seated about the
same time by the Iowa State Register,
when it declared that the new Com
missioner "shOuld have a judicial
mind that is not swayed by the inn
pulses of sympathetic interest" since
if he were to conduct the bureau "as
sympathy might suggest. it would
not take long to demoralize the
whole pension system and bankrupt
the Treasuary." 1t is cause for re-
joicing that the President has learned
that cold. bIoOdedness is a better quail.
ification than sympathy.-E0ening
Post.
