boy of II or IA summers who does the gen
eral utility business IN an Office on Newspaper
row. says the New York Sun. is the hero Of an
adventure which upset the gravity OF a public
school last week. He was sent up town with a
letter to one OF the lady teachers, and under
strict orders TO see 1t placed in her own hands
and bring back her acknowledgment of its re-
ceipt in writing Reaching the school building
he was directed to the room OF the principal.
VINO, after learning bis errand, took him up
stairs to the lady teachers class room, and
merely remarking. Miss Blank, nere's letter
and boy, placed the letter on her desk and
pointed to the boy.
Not needing the letter. the teacher thought
the urchin was new pupil. and running her
eye over him. remarked with severity:
'fhe first thing for You TO DO is to take that
chewing gum out of your mouth and throw it
away"
The terrified lad did as be was hidden, and
did not venture to demonstrate when she placed
him in a seat, put books AMI slate before him.
and told him to wait until she could attend to
him.
Half an hour later she summond him before
her and asked his name. He tolu her. Then
was in Madison street she demanded with some
asperty, how it happened that he came SO far
up town to school. Then tue murder was out
and the schoolroom ripplei with hooking
laughter as the dignifed teacher blushingly
took out her pocketoook aud handed over TO
the involuntary pupil nlcSle to replace the
chewing gum which she had so ruthlessly con-
hscated The boys life would be a happier one
if the other employees at the Office did not per-
petually call to min to take that chewing gum

Reed,s Hish-Handed Proceeding.

Reeds High-Handed Proceeding.
The attempt Of Speaker Rssd to force
them to assist in turning Representative
Venabls out OF the House is one that is very
justly resented by tae democrats. Reed
acts as if he were the absolute master of
the House instead of it's servant. He does,
or attempts 10 do, things that no other
speaker ever thought Of doing in the way of
making his will the law Of the House. He
| not only counts quorum when .
quorum does not vote, but he asserts that
there Is a quorum present when it is ex-
tremely doubtful IL there H. Yesterday he
refused to permit the question whether
there was quorum present or not TO be
tested.
But on Thursday be went much further
than counting quorum. He ordered the
doors of the House TO be closed, and he
gave instructions 20 the doorkeepers
TO permit no member to pass out
of the hall of the House. The fiery Kill
gore, Of Texas, couldn't stand that sort of
tyranny and he promptly kicked the door
down and passed into the lobby Reed, of
course. was angry, but what could be dol
He didn't undertake to bring Mr.. Kilgore
before the House for contempt. If be had
attempted anything of the kind he would
have made a much greater failure than
when he attempted to deprive members of
their liberty by shutting them in the hall of
the. House until he could get quorum.
The democrats are about tired of Reeds
arbitrary use of his power. 1t looks as if
they did not intend to submit to his tyranny
and longer. They are showing greater in
dependence than at any previous time dur
ing the session. If Representative Venable
is turned out of the House the republicans
will have to get enough of their own mem
bers present to do it.
A greater outrage was never attempted
upon any member of congress than the
effort to unseat Representative Venable
and seat the colored contestee, Langston.
Virginia republicans admit that Venable
was fairly elected Langston ran as an in
dependent, his own party having made
nomination. Langston divided the repub-
lican vote of the district with the regular
republican candidate. Malone says that
Venable was elected. and Representative
Cheedle, Of Indiana, a republican, in a

that the evidence was all in favor Of Ven
able's election.
The republican leaders, However, have
determined to seat Langston because they
are afraid if they do not do so their party
will lose the greater part of the black vote
of the northern states in the fall elections.
They are prepared to do great wrong with
the expectation that it will benefit their
party. It's in the effort to perpetrate tn is
wrong that Speaker Reed isplaying the part
of tyraat.

Opnosed to q Double site.

1t was thought few days ago that the
question of the worlds fair site in Chicago
had been finally and forever settled. 1t
seems, however, that it is still an open one.
According to our dispatches yesterday
majority Of the fair commissioners ore IRE
vocably opposed to the dual site
recently chosen, which is composed
of a part of the lake front
and part of jackson square.
1t will cost an immense amount of money
to so improve the lake front and jackson
park as to fit them for fair purposes But
that is not the chief objection to them. 1t
is admitted that there will be lack of IN
terest in the fair if a part of the
exhibit Is located five or six miles
from another part What is needed is
a site in which all the buildings can be
placed close together. and a site of that
kind the fair commissioners are determined
to have. They have given the Chicago
directors Of the fair notice that If they do
not provide such a site at an early day they
will report to congress that a satisfactory
site for the fair cannot be had in Chicago.
Chicago is not sho wing that enterprising
spirit Tor Wnlcn sue mas Do6n conspicuous so
long in the matter of providing site.
There certainly must be some place close to
the city which could be utilized for fair
purposes. Washington park has been sug-
gested. but the city doesn't like to have that
park used as fair site. The opinion is
expressed that 1t would be ruined. There is
no danger. however, that it would. Fair
mount park in Philadelphia was not ruined
by the centennial exposition.
1t would be rather remarkable if Chicago
should lose the fair after all. She made
extraordinary efforts to get it, without
once taking into account the question
Of her ability TO meet all the requirements
of it The threat of the commissioners
that they will accept no site that is not in
| cluded in one tract OF land, and that. IL
such site is no: offered, they will report to
congress that the right kind of site cannot
be obtained in Chicago, may induce the
Chicagoans to stop their wrangling and
tender such site as they know is necessary
in order 10 insure the success of the fair.

Politics in the President,s state.


The President has not succeeded in in
creasiug his popularity among the republi-
cans Of Indiana. Since 1t was announced
that John c. New was on his way home
from London, where he holds the office Of
consul general, there has been considerable
talk as TO whether the President could carry
his own state if he should be candidate for
President again. Some of the republican
leaders of Indiana say that it is even doubt
full if he could get the solid vote Of the In
diana delegation for the nomination for
President.
II seems rather remarkable that he should
have lost popularity in his own state. But
it is not perhaps so remarkable when the
fact is taken into consideration that about
every prominent republican in the state ex-
pected a first-class Office from Harrison.
OF course he could not take care of such an
immense number of ofiice-seekers, though
he did manage to provide good places for a
great many of them. Those who failed to
get what they wanted were disappointed,
and they are now ready to do almost any
thing to prevent Harrison's denomination.
There is some talk that Consul General
New is coming home to see if something
cannot be done to get up boom for Harri-
son in Indiana. Without enthusiasm in
his own state Harrison could hardly expect
much enthusiasm for himself in any other.
However, such live aud hustling politicians
as United States Treasurer Huston, who, as
the chairman of the republican state COM
mittee of Indiana, won two Straight vic
tories, says that Mr.. New is not coming
home to help boom Harrison. In Mr.. Hus-
toms opinion Mr.. New is not a man to boom
anybody. He doesn't think that Mr.. New
amounts to great deal as political leader,
and doubts very much whether he ever ex-
ercised much influence in Indiana politics
The republican leaders Of Indiana are far
from harmonious. Their differences are
such that there is not much probability of
their working together in Harrison's be-
half. In that case the prospect of Harri-
sons denomination is not bright one by
any means He knows that his own
state is not enthusiastic in his behalf,
and the knowledge has depressing effect
upon him. Though be may not be great
man, he is a very ambitious one.

stopped and gathered up all these bags. and as
he sat down cherubic smile OF satisfaction
overspread his countenance. He carefully

The Savannah Rarbor.

The river aud haroor bill is now a law, 1t
having been signed by the President IL Is
bill OF great importance TO Savannah.
1t appropriates $3.50. 900 for Savannah har-
Dor, but what is Of more importance so far
as Savannah is concerned is that itauthorizss
the beginning Of Improvements in Savan-
nah harbor which have for their object the
obtaining of a channel from Savannah to
the sea that will accommodate vessels
drawing twsnty-six feet of water. These
improvements, according 10 the estimates,
will cost IS, 100000.
IL may take quite a number Of years to
complete them, but they will be so made,
doubtless, that there will be a gradual
deepening of the channel. Within year
or two, therefore, 1T may be reasonably ex-
pected that vessels drawing twenty-three,
and perhaps twenty-four, feet will be able
to come to our wharves.
The surveys for the projected improve
ments were completed several years ago,
and work on them can be begun, therefore,
as soon as the appropriation that has just
been made is available. That will be.
doubtless, within two or three weeks.
With channel having depth of twenty
six feet Savannah's advance in wealth and
population will be far more rapid than at
any previous time in her history. Even the
promise of so magnificent a harbor will have
a wonderful effect upon her prosperity
She has enjoyed extraordinary prosperity
within the last four or five years, but it is
evident that she is only at the beginning of
her career of commercial greatness.
In the last business year she received
nearly 900, 900 bales of cotton, and she ex-
poets TO receive more than that number this
year. The value of the receipts of her
naval stores last year was double that Of
the previous year, and there was a remark
able increase in all the branches of her
business. This year the increase will be
even more marked than it was last. The
outlook for her future is certainly prom
isiag
To Representative Lester is due the credit
for having the twenty-six foot project
recognized, ana for getting such a liberal
appropriation for Savannah harbor, and for
rivers and other harbors of the First con-
gressional district. He had the shrewdness
to get himself appointed on the river and
harbor committee, and hence was in
position at all times to look out for the
river and harbor interests of his district.
If he had done nothing else for his district
this session he would be entitled to a re-
election by an increased majority. Men
who accomplish something are the ones to
