Not all the office-seekers, however,
come from outside the District of Colum-
bia. On the contrary, every res sident of
the city looks upon himself or herself as
ward of the Government. There are
over 10000 employees of the Government
in the city of Washington, of which
over 4, 200 are women.
At least one out of ten of these
women have children and every woman
wants to get her son or daughter into
Government service. With this end in
view they besiege Congressman and
Senators until they succeed. Many of
the residents of Washington have
enough to live on and only want Gov
ernment job to enable them to live
more comfortably. Congressman Joseph
NdHAOu VI llilHOlS, butterNOTbu VI
Ohio, Spinola of New York and Nc
Kinley of Ohio are the favorite targets
for applicants on account of their readi-
ness to listen to the stories. On an
average these gentlemen have from six
to ten callers day who are anxious to
draw salary from the Government. The
local office-seeker cares nothing for
geography and does not bother himself
as to whether or not he is constituent
of the Congressman or Senator to whom
heapplies.
A great many of the office-seekers
from other towns and distant States
stay until their money is all gone and
then actually beg for tickets to their
homes. Major Moore, the chief of
police, has had dozens of applications
from parties who claim to have been
promised positions under this admins

THINGS THAT WILL NOT DIE.

What am glad will stay when have passed
From this dear valley Of the world, and stand
On yon snow glimmering peaks, and lingering
cast
From that dim land
backward look, and haply stretch my hand,
Regretful, now the wish comes true at lasti
Sweet strains Of music am glad will be
Still wandering down the wind, for men will
And think themselves from oil their care set
free,
And Heaven near
When summer stars burn very still and
clear,
And waves OF sound are swelling like the sea.
And it is good to know that overhead
Blue skies will brighten, and the sun will
shine
And flowers be sweet in many garden bed,
And, all divine,
For are they not, o Father, thoughts of
Thine0
Earth's warmth and fragrance shall on men be
she'd
And l am glad that night will always come,
flushing all sounds, even the soft-voiced
birds
Putting away all light from her deep dome,
Until are heard
In the wide starlight's Stiffness unknown
words,
That make the heart ache till it find it's home
And am glad that neither golden sky,
Nor violet lights that linger on the hill,
Nor oceans wistful blue shall satisfy,
But they shall fill,
With wild unrest and endless longing still,
The soul, whose hope beyond them all must lie
And rejoice that love shall never seem
SO perfect rs it ever was to be,
But endlessly that inner haunting dream
Each heart shall see
Hinted in every dawns fresh purity
Hopelessly shadowed in each sunsets gleam.
And though warm mouths will kiss and hands
will cling,
And thought by silent thought be understood,
] do rejoice that the next hour will bring
That far-off mood
That drives one Like q lonely child to God
Who only sees and measures every thing.
And 1t is well that when these feet have
pressed
The outward path from EARTH twill not
seem sad
To them that stay; but they who love me best
VIII be most glad
That such long unqulet now has had,
At last, a gift of perfect peace and rest.

as a start the office-huntress began a
heavy social career, and last week,
backed by some of her newly-made

when conversation between one OF her

to an explanation, which resulted in the
ambitious woman losing all the advan-

In W0MAN'S BEHALF.
GOD WROUGHT.


Tread before the Anthony Club, OF Chicago
February l5 1890 in honor OF Miss Anthony's
seventieth birtbday.l
God wrought Into a heart of strength and
youth.
He sent His shining shafts OF truth
About were forests thick, by errors made,
From which the timid fled, and were afraid.
Great Iungles wild, OF superstitlons rank,
Grew up from Shiny soil where footsteps sank
To treacherous depths, Venom too and sting
Assailed the coming OF each better thing,
And mingled cries OF terror, and despair,
Rang out, and shook with sobs the circling air.
The stream of life was sluggish, sad and slow,
Freighted by shattered wrecks of overthrow,
And freedom, Knocked by wrong and cruel
might,
Was ceaseless in her pleading for the right
But half the globe of human being shone
For all the forces crowned were mans alone,
Unto his chosen servant God said: "Go
send you forth, in my own name, to SOW
''Seeds Of eternal justice in the land,
Anu at your SlQc forever Will SIdnu,
Fearless, go forth, nor mark the ieers that
meet
Nor heed the traps set for unwary feet
"Girded by honor armed by sacred truth
] send you out in this your day OF youth"
Into the night she went, SO brave and strong,
Nor faltered not as briars and thorns OF wrong
Pierced busy hands, that worked for busy
years,
To clear away life's underground of fears
10 beat back prejudice, and set instead
The burning bush, whose leaTing flames have
sped
From hidden place to legislative halls,
And burned their truths living letters on their
wallsl
Forgetting self, forgetting all but race
Majestic, grand, she stands in Gods high
place,
A living figure Of heroic mold
A living figure that can ne or grow oldl
Still stands she looking upward to the stars,
Still strikes she off the unjust bolts and bars

Golden on Luck and Labor.

Golden wrote proverbs about luck and
labor. 1t would be we'll for boys to
memorize them. Luck is waiting for
something to turn up. Labor, with
keen eyes and strong will, will turn up
something. Luck lies in bed and
wishes the poStIasn would bring him
news of legacy; labor turns out at six
o'clock, and with busy pen or ringing
hammer, lays the foundation Of COM
petence. Luck whines; labor whistles.
Luck relies on chances; labor on char
seter. Luck strides down to indi-
gence; labor strides upward to inde-
pcudenee.-N. Y. Ledges.
