A Terrible Infant.

Young people are terrors." This concise
statement, says the New York Tribune, at least
is made by certain member OF congress who
represents district not more than 100 miles
distant from New York. He invited the other
day to his house to tea gentleman whose sepa-
ration from the partner of his joys and sor-
rows has but recently ceased to be the talk of
the town. Immediately upon being seated in
the drawing-room the gentleman was ap-
preached by the little daughter of the host
with:
Where is your wifeg'
Somewhat amazed and decidedly embar-
rassed, the gentleman stammered forth:
Il don't know"
Don't know, " persisted the infant terrible,
why don't you know"
Finding that the child kept on asking trouble
some questions despite the mild reproof of her
parents, he concluded to make a clean breast
Of the matter, and have it over at once. So he
said with calmness:
We'll we don't live together; we think as we
can agree, we'd better not
He stified groan as the child began again,
and darted an exasperated look at her parents
But the precocious youngster would not be
quoted, and at last she exclaimed
Can't agrees Then why don't you fight it

His Idea OF a Dinner

good story is going the rounds of the press
now about Col George W. Hooker of Vermont,
says the Washington correspondent of the New
York Tribune, telling how he and ex-Congress-
man W. l. Scott Of Pennsylvania breakfasted
together in New York one day, and how the
mihonaire coal operator told Col Hooker that
ne would give all his worldly possessions for a
good appetite; this after seeing Col. Hooker
devour breakfast OF enormous proportions. A
gentleman who read the paragraph in Wash
inRton paper said to me:
nave sequel to that story without which
IL rs really not complete. Col Hooker is fond
oil drinking es well as OF eating. One day ne
was going down Broadway in New York with
ire hgnt OF recent experience bsaming in his
eve. when he met friend VINO was well
acquainted with his convViaI habits.
Hello, Hookerr said this friend. Where

Mrs. Cleveland's Receptions.

There has been kind of regal magnifcence
about Mrs. Grover Clevelands receptions dur
ing the last two or three months, says the New
York Times. Her drawing room has been
crowded on some days and almost empty on
others, as would fall TO the lot of almost any
lady outside of official circles. but she has APP
peared in costly and elaborate gowns on each
occasion, and impressed every one with her
grace OF manner and amiability. To be sure,
there have been a few grum blers who have
questioned her taste ia appearing in evening
dress with broad daylight streaming in at the
windows, but even they have softened their
remarks by saying that she looked very pretty
and the soft fur which she was fond of
having IN the edge of her decollete bodice was
very becoming She did not wear any gloves
but left to the admiring gaze her web shaped
arms and beautiful hands, which were almost
free from jewels, as but two rings graced her
fingers, and they were worn on her left hand.
Mrs. Cleveland's house is very well adapted for
receptions, but the arrangement of the rooms
implies that there must be at least three SER
wants TO show the visitors to the drawing room.
There are stairs TO go up before this room is
reached and the first door at the top of the
landing leads into the library, a much cozier
and more homelike room than the drawing
room, which is all white and gold and cupet-
less Mrs. Cleveland seems to have ordered the
room TO suit her gown, or her gowns to suit the
room in which she receives for the latter are
almost always white.

Let Us Have a Correct Census.

Are we to have colored census enumera
tors in this states The Monticello ga.
Times said a few days ago that it wa
understood that two colored men werl
booked for eaumerators for that casper
county. A week or two ago Supervisor
Thlbedeau was in Eatonton, and IL wa:
reported that he was there to find colored
mea for eaumerators for Putnam. We
have not heard Of an intention in any other
district to appoint colored men TO thess
important positions, but if they are ap-
pointed in one district it is probabls that
they will be appointed in others.
so far as Jasper and Putnam are con-
cerned, there is not colored man in either
county who could do the work satisfactorily,
and the same may be said of nearly all Of
the other counties Of the state. The statist-
les to be gathered are of sIch a character
that the enumerators should be men of more
than ordinary intelligence, and possessing
considerable information concerning the
people ana affairs of their respective coun-
ties. Such men are scarce among the col
Grad population of Georgia.
The people demand a correct census, aud
it ought TO be the desire and intention OF
those having the work in charge TO give
them that kind. This cannot be done if
colored enumerators are appointed in the
south. The census would be practically
valueless. No one would rely upon it.
If Supervisor Thibedeau. or any
other supervisor, thinks of ap-
pointing such enumerators, he
should dismiss the thought at once. Even
if colored men could be found having the
necessary qualifications for enumeras ors
they would not be as satisfactory as white
men in other respects. The colored people
would not give colored enumerators the in
formation required nearly 50 quick as they
would give it to white ones, and in some
localities the white people might not think
the census of sufficient Importance to fur
nish correct information if colored men
were chosen to take it.

didn't Forget the Rebuke.

Nearly twenty years of my early ife-from
the grade of midshpman to that of Lieutenant
were spent in what might now be called the old
navy, says letter from Princeton, N. j., to the
New York Times. During those years sailed
in various ships with various officers, but in al
my experience never knew one who so far
forgot what was due to his position or himself
as to strike sailor with his fist or to chase him
about the deck with Delaying pin, as appears
TO have been the custom on board the United
States ship Enterprise.
AS a youngster remember hearing a story
which may interest some Of your readers and
at the same time illustrate what was thought
of that kind of discipline TOR the want of it, by
the old-time heroes of the service.
Early in the century one OF the most dis
tinguished officers of the navy was the first COM
modore, Preble. The gallant Decatur-who
afterward became SO famouS-waS lieutenant
on board ship commanded by him. One day,
in a moment of passion, Decatur knocked a
man down. Such an unheard-of breach of dis.
cipline was at once reported to the commodore,
and Mr. Decatur was suspended from duty
After a few days he was sent for by Commo-
dore Preble and ecsived lecture that prob
ably made both of his ears tingle, but like the
manly fellow that he was, he promptly ad
mitted his wrong doing and proposed TO make
such PREPARATION as was possible. He suggested
per and sometimes could not control it.
Mr.. Decatur, replied the commodore, ''since
you have been on board this ship / have been
obliged, on several occasions, to caution you
and once or twice to speak pretty sharply, and
yet sir, you have never knocked me down
When you do that will believe you cannot
control your temper That is all, sir. You can
return to your duty" 1t is said that through
all his future brilliant career, Decatur never
forgot that rebuke. Perhaps some of the Off.
GERS of the Enterprise might profit by his ex
ample"-after the reprimand.
