THE CENTRE OF CABINET GOSSIP SHIFTED.

WASHINGTON SUPERSEDES INDIANAPOLIS
OPINIONS ABOUT THE NEXT CABINET.
Washington, Feb. &c CSpeciaD The centre
of Cabinet gossip has shifted from Indianapolis
here with General Harrison's arrival to-day.
Not that Washington has waited heretofore to
take its cue in Cabinet talk from the Indiana
capital With Congress in session there has
always been good deal Of speculation here among
the members of both branches about the makeup
Of General HGrrsons official family. But now
almost every secret OF the next Administration
is TO be looked for here, and the pressure on
the few who know them is becoming tremendous
The local feeling is that General Harrison 5
indianapolis slate will be broken in
part during the next few days No
doubt the selections that have been announced
anauthoritatiyely have NOT satisfied all shades OF
opinion here. Concerning thee or four OF Cen
erai Iarrison's appointments there is. OF course.
almost no doubt MIR. Blame will be his Secre
usry OF State; Mr. Manamaker IS put down as
pretty certain to be the next Postrnaster-Ge
1t is conceded that Ex-Governor Rusl hgs an ex-
llent chance for the Sccretaryship Jf War; 4;
General John w. Noble, Of 81. Louis, is favorite
for the Secretaryshp OF the Interior, and senator
of Agriculture. Opinions about the Treasury
Notwithstanding the strong assertions made that
Senator Window has accepted the portfolio, are
still conflicting. So Is IL with reference 10 other
Departments not already mentioned
The freshest bit OF gossip here to-day concerns
General Noble and Ex-Governor Redfleld
Proctor, OF Vermont. 1t Is stated that General
Noble wrote the other day to friend here that
he would surely have place in the Cabinet
unless further complications arose in New-fork,
meaning. perhaps that his selection depended
tpon the impossibility OF effeculng a compromise
in the Empire State. As TO Ex-Governor Proctor
who is here he is said TO ! ave told an old ac-
ouajntance that he would probably have the Navy
Department or War Department In General llar.
rison's Cabinet His getting the Navy would
bear out what General Harrison told State Senator
Norman b. Scott, Of West Virginia. last Satur-
day. Few predictions about d. ubtful Cabinet
portfolios viii be safe until General Harrison S
friends here have given him their final advice

and many successfully climbed the guardrails of
the car to do it. There were calls for speech
also but the train started before General Harrison
had been prevailed upon to begin. lie stood bare

peared around the curve. Alongside of him now

The run across to Washington was quick and
featureless one The train, instead Of coming into
the Sixth-st station, ran across Slxth.St and
stopped at Ninth-st and Maryland ave-, Cross
ING where only half hundred spectators were
waiting. Colonel Britton was on hand with
carriages for the party, and thcy were taken
at once to the Arlington Hotel. Among those in
the train were three young children and number
of ladies, and it was thought best for their
comfort not TO risk the effort of pushing through
the crowd that was patiently awaiting the Pres-
dent-elects arrival at the station These un-
lucky enthusiasts stood about expcctantly until
long after the train had come in, and were then
told that their pains had been in vain.

Keen Your Eve On the Daro.

After careful consideration of the
subject of italian immigration in the
Political Science Quarterly, Mr..
Eugene Schuyler comes to the con-
clusion that .sthe Italians, in spite Of
poverty and illiteracy, are q desirable
element to fuse with our motley popu-
lation. They bring to u.s." he adds,
"the logical qualities of the Latin
race, and they show in the long run
the effect of an experience which no
other people in Europe has had-of
over 1000 years of civilization" He
main here, their poverty and illiteracy
soon disappear. There are no foreign
immigrants who are quicker to get on
their feet than the Italians. They are
industrious and thrifty, and from the
poorest beginnings are likely to rise to
comfort and independence. Within q
few years they have obtained some-
thing like monopoly of the apple
stand business in town, and they have
greatly enlarged it. Their children,
too, are apt scholars. 1t is great
mistake to underrate the italian immi-
grants. They are bound to get ahead.

II saw a little act of kindness yester-

her at all. "Just then," says the Roch-

hollow of the hand on the knot with
which all women put the finishing touch

The Hair Dive Lake Again.

The hair dye lake story is in circula-
ton again. This time it reads: A
well-known Jackson, Mich, man has
just returned from a Michigan summer
resort, four miles east Of jackson.
When he went there his hair was as
white as u badger. He washed his
head several times day at certain
place in the lake, and his hair COM
menced to turn black, and it is now as
black as a ravens wing. A red-haired
Jackson girl had her locks turned
black by the same process. A COM
pany has been secretly formed to buy
the right to use the lake, build hotel,
and start resort for red-haired girls
and white-haired men. The particular
point at which the water is taken
which works this wonderful change is
kept q secret.

KILLED Kattler wan Her TIN 1a;t.

Mrs. Frank Keen, of Chichesterville,
had rather thrilling experience with
rattlesnake day or two ago, which she
will probably remember during the re-
mainder of her life. She was picking
raspberries in her garden when she sud-
denly heard peculiar rafting noise.
She continued her work for minute or
two, when she again heard the same
noise nearer by, accompanied by an omi-
nous hiss, and, glancing into the bushes
close at hand, she saw a big rattlesnake
already coiled and about to spring at
her
Mrs. Keen had large tin pail partly
filed with raspberries in her hand, and
without a moments hesitation she let
the snake have taste Of the berries and
the big pail at the same time. The pail
must have fallen with a terrific whack
on the reptiles head, for when Mrs.
Keen went closer to examine into the
injuries done to her pail, as we'll as to
see how the snake liked its berry bath,
she found the head had been nearly
severed from the body. Mrs. Keen says
she feels assured that the snake would
not have attacked her if she had kept d
respectable distance from its quarters.
The snake measured foor feet in length
