WASHINGTON LETTER.

WASHINGTON, Nov 12.-Civil Service
Commissioner Thompson's friends
Indignantly deny the statement
charging him with having assisted
in collecting campaign contributions
for the Democratic National Commit
tee in 1888 from the clerks in the
Treasury Department while he was
Assistant Secretary of that depart
ment.
This silly charge was brought
against Mr.. Thompson by Republi-
cans, because he took steps to prose-
cute members of Virginia Repubfi-
can club of this city for collecting
money from government employees
for the Malone campaign fund.
Ex-Secretary Bayard was mar
ried in this city last Thursday to
Miss Clymer. This marriage has been
reported as about to take place at
least a half dozen times during the
last year.
A committee of negro preachers
called on Mr.. Harrison last week and
endeavored to get him to commit
himself to the absurd scheme prOpOs-
ed by the recent convention Of negro
Baptists held at Indianapolis, of
asking Congress to appropriate $50
OOO, 900 to aid the negroes of the
South in cmigrating to the West.
The same committee afterwards call
ed on the Attorney General and pre-
sented a long string of alleged politi-
cal outrages at the South. From all
that can be learned they did not re-
lot off or
of the gentlemen visited. They only
got some very indefinite and diplo-
matte promises.
L. B. Prince, the Governor of New
Mexico, makes a strong showing in
his annual report to the Secretary of
the Interior in favor of the admission
of that territory as a state. 1t is ex-
pected that the Democrats in Con-
gress will make a determined fight
during the coming session for the
admission of New Mexico and Idaho.
The Government Directors of the
Union Pacific railroad, in their annu-
al report, say that the interests of
the United States demand es..ly ac-
tion by Congress to secure the pay
ment by this company of it's indebt-
edness to the government. They
indorse the (Outhwaite) bill, which
was pending when the last Congress
adjourned. 1t remains to be seen
whether the millionaire lobby will be
successful in again defeating this
much needed legislation during the
coming Congress. Representative
Cultivate proposes to re-introduce
the same bill as soon as Congress
meets, and to use his utmost endeav-
or to push it through the House.
There is little doubt of it's being pass
ed by the House, but the danger lies
in the Senate, which has always been
inclined, for obvious reasons, to be
extremely lenient in it's dealings with
| the Pacific railroad.
The Postmaster General has back
ed down from the dictatorial position
he assumed towards the telegraph
companies some months ago, ,and has
set the rates to be paid by the gov.
ernment for official telegraph mes
sages much higher than the price he
then named. The rates are about
the same as those charged everyone
by the B. & o. Telegraph Company
when it was swallowed by the Wes
tern Union monopoly. Jay Gould is
a "bigger" man than Wannamaker

A Kentuck- Killing.

LEXINGTON, KY, Nov. S.-At
twenty minutes to two this afternoon,
Col. A. w. Swope was killed by Col.
VIM. Cassius Gcodloe and the latter
was mortally wounded by Swope. The
affair occurred in the lobby of the new
government building, and grew out of
a trouble the two men had nearly two
years ago. The men met as stated,
and hot words passed between them,
when Goodloe drew a bowie knife and
cut Swope all to pieces. Swope drew
pistol and shot Goodloe, the ball
taking effect in the abdomen. The
doctors think he will die.
Both men drew their weapons at the
same time. Col. Goodloe is Internal
Revenue Collector for this district,
and was a member of the National Re
publican committee that elected Har-
rison. He belongs to one of the oldest
and best families in the State. Col.
Swope was one of Kentucky's most
prominent Republicans, and was for

QUEER FIND OF HONEY.
The Labor OF Swarm Of Bees Hidden
for Fifty Years
From the GLasgo,C Herald

From the Glasgow Herald
A remarkable discovery has been made
at tie Cathays Yard of the Taff-vale Rail
way Company. large elm tree, grown in
Worcestershire, was being cut up into tim
Der, when, rig Mt in the We V heart, a cavity
measuring feet ~ inches in diameter was
discovered almost completely filled with
the comb CT the honey bee, together
with q squirrels skull. No means
of access to the hollow was discov-
cradle, neither was decay anywhere ap-
parent, and around the cavity itself no less
than fifty rings" each ring denoting a
years growth, we're counted, the outer
bark being, too, without flaw. The hol-
low was of uniform size throughout, and
presented the appearance of havi e been
bored with an auger, and great toough its
dimensions were, it was prac ically filled
with the comb, proving that the bees must
have been i'll possession for several years.
Empty combs of the queen bee also showed
that they had swarmed.
How the bees got there can only be
guessed, but it is surmised that q squirrel
once occupied deca led hole in the tree,
cleared away the decay, occupied the cav
itv as ITS home, and there died. Then the
bees entered into possession and filed the
whole with comb, when by some means the
entrance, which must have been small, be-
came st pped, TIE large quantity Of grub
and Hy being taken a de mons ra'ive that
the nest was not voluntarily de erted.
Then for fifty years the growth of the
timber went or. The entrance be ng abso-
lutcly obliterated and the hole bel g her
matically sea ed, the como was preserved
fir IN decay for half century, TO lie fou
at last in way described. The find is Of
great interest to naturalists.

The Historical Incident Witnessed
After Dining in the over of London.
From London Letter.
Three hours later, as | said good night,
my host stopped me. 'There is something
you would like to see, and it is just time.
Come along" AS we went out an officer of
the guard rushed by in full uniform, sword
ringing against the stone steps, huge bear
skin helmet and all the rest, and cried out
to us; You will be late if you don't hurry"
and away he went at the double-qucS
across the moonlit parade. 1t was rather
soon after dinner for constitution ii, but
we followed, and found the guard already
turned out under the gallery by the Bloody
Tower. A moment later appeared a little
squad of men. one of them in a flowing
scarlet robe, with a lighted lantern, coming
up the steep slope that leads fro u Traitors
Gate. The sentry challenged sharply:
HALT VINO goes tnerem
the warder halts and answers:

"Whose keysp

Pass, Queen Victoria's keys" The
warder in toe flowing scarlet robe with the
lighted lantern, followed by his little squad,
starts off again, but halls again and cries
aloud
r
Ger brings his sword to the salute, officer
and men respond in chorus three times with
a kind of cheer:
amen. amen, amen"
Again the warder sets out, passes, turns
square TO the left and vanishes, he aud his

little squad. He is carrying the keys of the
