The New York Herald's Washington
correspondent says:
The first real and authentic Cabinet
news leaked ont here to-day when gen
tleman very near to Mr.. Blaine an.
nounccd to few friends that Mr.. Blaine
has actually been offered the Secretary
of State and has signifed to Mr.. Harri-
son that he will accept.
This is authentic" the gentleman
told his cluD friends. 81 am able TO
state 1t as fact, and two places are now
settled Mr.. Blaine will be Mr. Harri-
sons Secretary of State, and Mr.. Wana-
maker, who is close friend of Mr..
Blaine, his Postmaster General, not Sec
retary of the Navy, as the newspapers
have it. The Treasury will go West,
and Mr.. Harrison has urged Senator AL.
lison TO accept II, but IL he declines,
some other Western man will be found.
Nothing else is settled and IT is my
belief that no other person will be de-
cided until Mr.. Blaine and Mr.. Harrison
have either met to consult or have fully
intcrchanged ideas on the Cabinet ques-
tion by letter. Now that Mr.. Blaine has
decided to accept the State Department,
naturally Harrison will consult him as to
the other members who are to serve
under him."

listers came down on him like wolf on

bott, the opera, theatres, and pretty much
everything else in that line, and opened
the battle vigorously Poor little Emma
Sorrowing little widow Nice little
woman Once choir singer herself
How many times have the preachers
pounced upon her And how much less
cause they have for il than in the cases

The German Government, says Philadel
phia Press correspondent, 90 far as Samoa Is
concerned, is Synonymous with the German
Commercial Company In which Bismarck is q
stockholder. This concern, according to Mr.,
Sewall, rules the German Consul, II has se-
cured possession of a large part Of the Sa-
moan Islands, and this by illigitimate means.
Bismarck has Il selfish reason therefore In

CRIrICULAR.

A friend OF the senior Senator from Ken
lucky tells this story:
Not long ago Senator Beck went out to visit
his son who lives on a ranch In Minnesota.
The nearest railway station was twenty miles
from the place and he had great difficulty In
finding a conveyance lie announced himself
TO several persons as James B. Beck, the
United States Senator, but no person seemed
impressed by II and money was no object to
cart-owners. At last he struck an old fellow
who had horses and wagon, but who, like all
the Others, was not inclined 10 let them go.
The Senator offered him $40, and finally $50,
but II was no use
"lt's very hard, he said, al have not seen
my son for long time. lie lives only twenty
miles from here and cannot get there"
"Whnt is your sons name2n asked the old
man.
"Jim Beck" was the reply.
"Great Lord !" exclaimed the old man.
"Are you Jim Beck's fatherS"
"Yes, sir, am"
"Well, certainly, you can have tho team.
l know Jim Beck, and I'll do anything for his
daddy.n
The Senator drove away rather dsgusted
with his own fame as a statesman, but very
proud Of being trusted because he was the
daddy" of Jim.
"Doniel, remarked the President this morn
ing rs he pulled his necktie around and but
toned his vest up TO the top button.
"Yes, SIRE" responded Daniel.
"Did you notice by the papers that Harrison
paid $50 a dozen for the shirts ho is to wear
during the Inauguration ceremoniesS"
"What, siroYn exclaimed Daniel, starting up
with an intensity OF emotion which split his
paper collar down the back.
"Harrison paid Sl2,50 piece for his shirts,
Daniel" repeated the President in tones OF
pain.
"Great Caesar, SIRE" continued Daniel, "and
you only paid 75 cents"
SSH shl Danicl,r whispered tho President
cautiously; "mine were unlaundried and,
besides, Daniel, we were inaugurating Demo-
cratic era of retrenchment and reform.n
"Retrenchment and reform he --.n
"Stop, Daniel" commanded the President
| peremptorily, and Daniel threw his paper col
lar into the waste basket and went out in the
back yard for n few moments Of solitude.

Foreign Affairs Committee has a joint
resolution under consideration on the
Samoan difficulty and the word German
or Germany does not occur anywhere in
it, Certain European powers" how
ever, is used, and it reads good deal
like an anonymous communication.
Possibly Congress docs not know yet
that Germany and England are the ''oer-
tain European powers. What Congress
needs is a telephone to Bismarck's pri-
vate residence so it can call him hog
and Liar, and scoundrel, and apply
other parliamentary epithets with some
degree of personal security.
