The McCalla INQUIRY.

T. is impossible, Of course. TO say what
the finding Of the court-martial in the case
q Capt. McCaila Of the United States
steamer Enterprise viii be, but the tes;i-
mony that las thus far been introduced
shows that he was unnecessarily cruel in
bis treatment Of some of the men Of his
crew. There is no doubt that he struck
down Fireman Walker with his sword
while the latter was in irons, and that he
threatened 10 kill a boy who was guilty Il
q slight indiscretion- On the other hand,
it is quite clear that he had lot Of men TO
deal with who were insensible to kindness,
and y no broke the rules Of the ship when
ever the opportunity 10 do 50 presented
itself.
While it is true that he ought not to have
resorted to punishnents that are not recog-
nized by the regulations of the navy. and
also that the striking of the fireman was
a cruel act, nevertheless it will be admitted
that the conduct of the fireman was
calculated to destroy discipline and to make
It difficult, if not impossible, to control
the rough men who composed large part
Of the crew. The fireman, according to the
testimony, cursed and reviled the captain
and applied TO him vile epithets. Com
paratively few men in Capt. McCalla's
position would have been able, under the
circumstances, to restrain their anger. and
to have refrained from inhicting summary
punishment on the offender. However,
in violently assaulting a member of his
crew with a deadly weapon when he himself
was in no danger of violence, he
not only ignored the rules for the securing
of discipline in the navy, but he lessened
his influence with his crew, aud it is prob
able, therefore, that he will not be exon
Grated by the court-martial from the
charges which have been brought against
him 1t is probable that he will claim that
a number of the crew had assumed a
threatening attitude. and that an attack
upon himself and his officers was prevented
by the course which he pursued. This de-
Tense will not be regarded as sufficient
unless be is sustained by his officers. and it
is certain that all of them do not think he
was justified in what he did. One of them
has testified that on occasions the captains
conduct was unnecessarily cruel.

Showed Him How 1t was Done.

An amiable senator, who has not been long in
congress, was talking with a newspaper man
yesterday about the burning question of out
ragged senatorial dignity, says the New York
Commercial advertiser. Now tell me-" he
said, ''how do you boys get these things, any
how!"
Il really have no particular objection to
telling you" the correspondent replied, but
l do not propose to tell that smelling com.
mittee."
''Wen, l am not member of that com.
mittee." said the senator, repeLling the insinua-
ton.
II do not propose to recognize the authority
of the committee" continued the correspond
ent. ~ do not see what authority they have
Where did they get any authority? Who con
sttuted them a committee to smell out other
peoples business? I do not see any record OF
their appointment.
"Oh - said the senator, ''they were appointed
in executive session. That is why there is nc
record. They were appointed with full author
ity and instructed to make q thorough investi-
CATION"
Then he went on to tell how complete their
authority was and what were their instructions
But he added you said you did not mind
telling me how you got your information about
executive sessions.
"Ihis is the way. have just given you an
illustration.
Tbs senator looked puzzled for a moment.
Then he looked mad, but in a moment reached
out his hand. That's all right he said, II
forgive YOU"

Having a Good Time.

Speaker Reed seems to be getting a good
deal of animal enjoyment out of his posi-
ton, and the republican members are hav-
ing no end of fun. The speaker metaphor
ically takes by the nape of the neck and the
seat of the trousers every democratic mem
Der who dares to question his rulings, or to
make asuggestive inquiry, and pitches him
out of the House, and while he is going
through with that little trick the repub-
licans nearly split their sides laughing
Our readers doubtless remember how he
silenced Mr.. Springer, when that gentle
man wanted to know when he could make
a certain motion. "You can make it at the
proper timer vociferated the dignifed
speaker, who never loses his temper; and
the republican hilarity thereat was great.
Almost daily such scenes take place. Mr..
Kilgore, for instance, arose the other day
to make a parliamentary inquiry. The
speaker allowed him TO proceed, and he was
getting TO the point nicely when he was in
terrupted by the sweet and low voice of Mr.
Reed, who remarked persuasively that the
gentleman was hardly laying the founda-
ton for a parliamentary inquiry, whereat
| bIC ItpuDlASdAo Ad0EAC0 y.
Mr.. Kilgore YVES so much astonished
that he forgot what he was gong
to inquire about, but subsequently
he Tentured, after vote had been
taken, to make the point of no quorum.
The point was well taken, for there was
nothing more than Reed quorum, but the
words came from the speaker: 1.-THE chair
overrules the point" and again the repub-
hcans INDUCED in laughter.
The demeanor of the speaker is disre-
spectful and even insulting to the House.
1t may be very funny, but it isn't what the
members have right to expect, and
it doesn't comport with the high position
which Mr. Reed holds. No doubt the
people are taking note of it, and that they
will see that the democrats have chance
in the next congress of placing in the chair
a man who isn't brutal in his remarks, who
isn't autocratic in his decisions, and who
isn't quite so lavish in sarcasm at the wrong
time. In doing this, they will necessarily
have to dismiss some of the republican men,
bers who have been lassoed by Speaker
Reed and made to follow at his sweet will,
and who are now trying to get some en- joy
ment out of their shackled condition by
joining in laughter every time the speaker

Particular About His Drinks.

Have drink with us, old man. said a
young fellow who was treating three or four
companions in popular cafe, the other night,
I've had stroke of luck to-day, and feel gen
erous enough even to treat the house. Ours is
whisky
Thanks said the smiling proprietor, who
was behind the bar. TN take gin, and he
poured himself out thinbleful or two from a
bottle that stood near him.
Gins a horrid drink" said the speaker
What makes you take to it, when you have
the choice of so many fine liquors!"
"Depraved taste, l suppose. replied the bar
keeper with laugh. 'S'long, them
Say, old man,''' said a rednosed individual

Won't you keep me company"

whisky is my drink" and he poured out his
own liquor from a different bottle from that
which he had set before his former customers
This sort of thing went on with variations for
an nour or two, says the New York Tribune.
The proprietor drank with every one who asked
him, but never took the same liquor as his Gus
toner.
How is it," asked a man who had been look
ing on from his seat at table near by, that
you can manage to consume so much liquor in
the course of the day, and yet not show the
effects OF 1t? You have had at least ten horns
in the last hour, and 1 suppose the same sort of
thing goes on all day, yet y ur eye is clear
your skin healthy looking. and your whole ap-
pearance that of a man who never takes more
than is good for him -
We'll, I'll tell you said the proprietor with
a laugh, seeing that you're an old friend if
you promise not to give me away. You see for
yourself how hard it is for popular liquor
seller TO keep from becoming a mere tank, a
sot, SO many people are always
asking them to drink, for va
rious motives and if he declines he is
apt to give offense. Now l attribute my success
in that line to wise choice of liquors Gin or
whisky OF an especial brand, l always take,
and keep them in particular bottles, which
are never handed to customers, but are kept
here on the shelf for my own use.
Taste my whisky added he, setting out his
private bottle, containing a yellowish liquid
What do you think of it?''
Curious stuff. p" said his friend slipping it,
and shifting at it. Don't think ever tasted
though. Has considerable aroma, but its
mighty weak for whisky. What brand is it?''
Taste the gin," was all the reply the pro-
prietor gave, as he set bis private gin bottle
down beside the other.
Curious, said the friend, pouring out and
sampling a colorless liquid. Il am sure never
tasted anything like it before. Come now,
what is -
That's water said the liquor-dealer with a
grin. Never tasted it, eh?'
Water gasped his friend.
Yes, and the others cold tea. Now you
know bow l drink and drink and yet keep a
my boy. 1t would not do to let people know
that the man who sells as much liquor over his
bar as anybody in the ward is almost tee
totaler."

From the WdshinqtOn Post.

Oh, am the cowboy of legend and story,
Whom the back Eastern youngsters so highly
admire;
The slaughter of pilgrims is ever my glory,
And few have escaped when they drew out
my fire.
On the deck Of my broncho I skim DER the
prairie,
A terror to all who my darling behold;

And all vigilantes the country can hold.
As free as the proud, soaring bird of the ocean
l speed on my way over valley and plain,
And no man dare make the least treacherous
motion,
That he lives for minute to do it again.
The joys of existence I don't claim forever;
Some day must mizzle like other galoots;
But the Old Boy will be most devilish clever
If he gets me laid out while l stand in my
boots.

And corraled in a furnace forever to dwell,

There is considerable consternation in re-
publican circles because the Ohio legislature
seems to be going 10 try to change the man
ner Of choosing presidential electors in that
state. Senator Buchanan has introduced a
bill providing that, with the exception of
the electors-at-large, the electors for Ohio
shall be chosen in the congressional districts,
one in each district, and if this plan should
be adopted the democrats would get most
of the electoral votes from that state in
1892, provided congress could not interfere
with the recent congressional redistricting,
and provided, further, that the democrats
controlled the next legislature. Another
democratic senator is going to introduce a
bin providing that tne electors shall be
chosen by the legislature. This bill shows,
at least, that there is some confidence that
the democrats will continue to control the
legislature

A Bad Lot.

The sheriff of New York city and his
deputies do not appear TO be much, if any,
better than the criminals they hold in con-
finement. Sheriff Flac& is now on trial for
getting divorce from his wife by fraudu-
lent means. His wife is old, and the I'M
Outstanding is that he desired to get rid of
her so that he might marry younger
woman. His wife was made plaintiff in a
divorce suit without her knowledge, and a
decree of divorce was obtained The news
papers uncovered the matter, and now the
sheriff is trying to keep out of the peniten-
tiaty for his share in the fraudulent proceed
ings a jury will soon say whether or not
he shall put on q striped suit or continue
TO lock up those who are in fair way of
wearing striped suits.
His warden, a man named Heating, and
his chief deputy. a man named McGonigal,
have Just been indicted for accepting brit
from prisoners in their charge in Ludlow
street jail. The evidence of their guilt is
strong and direct. One of the Herald's re-
porters had himself sent to the Jail for the
purpose Of testing the rumors that a
prisoner there could do about as he pleased
piofAAcA no was AD54 al Win LIS ulOney.
He found the rumors were true He says
that he bribed both Heating and McGoni-
gal, and was permitted to leave the Jail aud
go wherever he wanted to about the city.
OF course he had to pay literally for the
privileges which he enjoyed. He satisfied
himself, however, that a corrupt lot of
officials ran the prison, and he went before
the grand iury and had the man he brihad
indicted. 1t is evident that in New York
the street cleaning bureau is not the only
one in which reform broom is needed.

movement to put him out has been grow
