LEEDoM. sILCoTT. THIEBAULT.
Silcott was born in Adams county,
Ohio, about fifty-two years ago, and for
twenty years was engaged in tho mer-
camille business ut Youngsville, always
bearing good reputation as an honest
and efficient business man.
The news of his downfall was COM
plete surprise and shock to his acquaint-
ances. He has always enjoyed the con-
fidence of his friends and neighbors, and
they would have trusted him with any
thing they had. He was appointed by
Hon. J. =. Leedom as n reward for serv.
ices to the Democratic party as candi.
date for auditor of Adams county, in the
race for which he almost bankrupted
himself, but was defeated. This infor-
nation is taken from the Columbus (O.)
State Journal, which adds:
Mrs. Sicott comes from an old Vir-
ginia family, which has always been con-
sidered among the best families Of the
country.
ond National bank of Crcleville, o., who
was Mr.. Silcott's predecessor in the Office
of cashier of the sergeant alarms under
Hon. John G. Thompson, explains the
methods of congressman in drawing their
salaries as follows:
"The salaries of members Of congress
are drawn from the United States treas
ury by the sergeant alarms monthly
upon the certificate of the clerk of the
house during the vacation and by the
speaker after one is elected. Each cer-
tiiicate is also signed by the member and
is for SAT-. The salary is sent to each
member by draft during the vacation il
they request it, and when congress is in
session the money is placed to the credit
of each member in the books of the
sergeant-at.arms and is subject to the
check Of the members. Sncott had ac-
cess to it all. He was able at any time
to embezzle thousands of dollars, as
there was no check Oh his operations but
his honesty"
Louise Thiebault, who fled with Sill
colt and his S'2, 900, is French Cana
dian with whom Silcott has been init
mate for some time. She is described as
woman of good appearance, and was
known by sight to many in and about
the Capitol al Washington.

CORNER or FULTON ANL sRoADwAY DURING
BLOCKADE
With the first stroke of pick by the
subway workmen the trouble began.
Great piles of dirt and paving stones
rose on each side of the trench dug on
one side of the street, and in few hours
that part of the roadway between one
curb and the street car track was i'm
passable for vehicles. Nor were the big
pyramids of debris confined to the road
way. The sidewalks, too, were en-
croached upon to such an extent that it
was almost impossible to get to the
doors of many stores. As 1t was during
the busiest part of the year the trades
mon complained bitterly Of this state of
affairs; but there was no help for it.
This nuisance continued in various
parts of the street for more than week,
and the blockades that resulted were al
most constant, and sometimes took In
two squares at time. Occasionally they
even extended down che side streets,
Chambers street being blocked one day
for half an hour from Broadway almost
to the North river. The following gives
~ RtVbt Iuett nt DOW tuC btilitcus
At the corner of Fulton street and
Broadway was n pile of earth and paving
stones fully four feet high. On the top
of this pile perched a policeman who by
gesticulating and yelling was endcavor-
ing to keep the line of trucks and street
cars moving. An old lady ventured tim
Idly from the sidewalk and the police
man descended from the pile Of dirt to
pilot her. They did not get very far
however. An up-going street car got
stuck directly In front of thenI and right
across the narrow opening between the
piles of debris. A truck which was fol-
lowing close behind the street car had
TO pull up short.
In order To avoid running the great
pole of the truck through the rear end OF
the car the driver turned his horses out
toward the down track. This stopped a
car on that track, and the long line Of
other cars and loaded trucks behind il
had TO come to a standstill. One or two
drivers tried to get out Of the jam by
driving around the Instructions, and,
getting in each others way, made things
hundred times worse. This blockade
lasted eighteen minutes, and a view from
the top of the heap, where the policeman

goans. The thought of the theatre car
ries that mass--supports it. Therefore,
In the public mind, the theatre has be-
come the Auditorium.
We have just seen an Italian opera
troupe of world wide fame landing at
New York as the Romans might land ut
Ostia, and pressing forward to Chicago,
as the Romans might press on to the
eternal city. Whatever else may be said
on this head, l, at least, may remark that
a city has arisen on Lake Michigan which
has all the vanity of New York, with a
present willingness to pay the startling
expense which comes with gratifica-
ton of that vanity. There are rich and
luxurious people in New York, i'm Bog
ton, Philadelphia. Well, then, let them
wait until the rich and luxurious people
of a parvenu city shall have been served!

IDENTIFY occur to the chiidren that they
were straying far away from home. The
child who carried tho sleeping baby was
perspiring freely when the cortege en-
tered Roosevelt street. Her feet slipped
|on the cobble stones, and several times
ION tho journey down the street she was
iostlcd by clumsy boys into tho gutter.
with a frightened glance over her
shoulder she resumed her journey. She
twas satisfied to endure any contumely
leo long as she was near to the blissful
music which filled her palpitating heart
with delight.
There were groups of little girls in the
ragged advance guard who held tightly
to each others hands, All were bare
headed and bore that mature womanly
appearance peculiar to italian children.
They clustered together like frightened
partridges whenever q truck horse came
near, Several times the little girl with
the sleeping baby tried to keep step with
tho pulsery music, but her burden was
too great for any such rhythmic gayety.
1t was II o'clock when the ragged and
unkcmpt advance guard, tho blaring
band and tho shining coaches emerged
into South street. The band now stop
ped playing. The hearse and coaches
were driven on board the ferryboat.
The cheering influence Of the music be-
ing gone, the sleeping child weighed like
lead on the arms Of her sister. She
looked around at the buildings and real.
lied that she was lost. Then she began
to cry. The band dispersed and each
man went homo by different route.
The advance guard vanished like the
morning mist. The two children were
left alone. The baby slept as peacefully
as if it had been in Its cradle at home.
While standing in the middle OF tho
street tho mingled tears and perspiration
ran down her face, and her feeble knees
bent under her heavy burden like those
Of baby learning to walk. Her home
was half mile away, and she did not
know how to reach it, Down Roosevelt
street brawny Italian came running,
her loosened hair flying out behind her.
She looked wildly here and there, and ut
last caught sight Of tho disconsolate
child crying in the square near the ferry.
One minute later tho baby lay securely
in the haven of its mothers arms, and
the tired child was hanging TO her
mother skirt with the grip Of a drowning
man. ERNEST .JARRoLD.
