o. ROBERTS, LOBBIEST.
l Hotel Keeper Nearly Goes Crazy
Over Bill.

lature Oliver Roberts of the Airing
ton House aged several years by
reas,n OF his labors drawing up
and lobbying through Dill which
provided for the protection OF the
hotel industry.
In the olden time a man who
did not care to settle his bill for
provender and lodgia g5, merely
treated the landlord at his own bar
and while slipping The cocktail
Manhattan or DeEarTy as the case
might be-quietly informed him
that he was going TO an adjoining
town to collect fou thousand dol
lars OF man that owed him and
he would return in a day or so.
Here the landlord would bleed
internally, for Ire knew by long ex-
perience that he was never to see
that guest again and the bin
would have to be scratched of
the books.
There w3s no law to stop him
until he started TO leave the State.
Under The new law drafted after
much expenditure of Midnight oil
and gray brain matter by Roberts,
a man cannot jump his board bill
50 easily, as the officers can yank
him off a train when he attempts
to leave town even il he is not
aoout to leave the State.
AT er drawing up TIE bill he
showed it to several members
stopping at the Arlington. They
believed it was an excellent bill
but put up a job on the landlord.
They began suggesting chang
es and amendments and pointed
cut several unconstitutional claus
es.
Oliver revised the bill every day |
of his life, a dozen times during |
the session and was sometimes up |
all night wrestling with it.
Then The members, who had |
agreed 70 stand in grew cold at
times and ne had to fill them up
with oysters and wine.
They worked the oyster and wine
game in good shape and some Of the
smartest members got as high as
three separate fancy oyster roasts
a day out OF him with the wine
thrown in.
All member had to do was to
scra .ch his head and look blank
when Oliver read his last versioL
Of the bill and he was steered right
INTO The dining room.
The landlord kept an extra
cook on deck night and day serv-
ing up the bivalves for the mem
Oers and he was in for bonus OF
500 if the bill became a law.
Finally the bill passed. Oliver
had dined Wallace and Cleveland |
scores of times to make them keep |
their hands off the bill and when
it finally got a clean majority in
both houses, he turned floods of |
liquor loose ever the bar that night |
and went to bed at 3 o'clock in the
morning as happy as a clam.
Next day the intelligence was
communicated to him that Cover
nor Colcord had vetoed the bill.
He slowly realized what that
and sinking to the floor in
a fainting condition was carried |
by tender hands to a osfa in the
cu7d-room aud his head rubbed |
with ice.
In the afternoon he decided to !
cal at the executive chamber to |
lick the Governor.
"Oi course" he said. ''Its bad !
form for an old Republican like
me- to build head on the Chief |
but the circumstances
Of the case demand it, and / shall |
do my duty by the hotel keepers
OF this State"
So, he called on the Governor,
and suppressing his feelings tenn
pora-ily, asked fer an explanation.
The Governor, in his blandest |
accents, explained the situation.

The Point About Sir Francis KnoIlys That
Makes Him Valuable to Prince Tummy.
New York World.


Makes Him Valuable to Prince Tummy.
New York World.l
Absolute devotion to the Prince and a.
discretion that is almost without parallel
are the principal characteristics of the
Princes private secretary and gentleman
in-waiting, Sir Francis Knollys, whose
personal appearance is, however, scarcely
on a par with his splendid qualities He IS
an ideal private secretary, and the only
thing to be regretted is that his cleverness
and penetration should not be greater than
they are. Were that the case he might be
able to exercise powerful influence upon
the Prince, instead of merely contenting
himself with an almost dog-like loyalty,
devotion and obedience. An influence that
Frank Knollys would WELD could not fail
to prove beneficial, and it is almost a
national misfortune that, occupying the
most he does, he should not be q stronger
man.
He is the personifcation of tact and
patience, qualities which proved of singu-
lar advantage to him 10, 10 and 20 years
ago, when he was wont to be the favorite
butt of the sometimes exasperating witt
cisms and rough practical jokes of the
Prince and his set. 1t is difficult to be-
lieye that he can recall the Princes famous
voyage to India without a shudder. For
scarcely day passed on board the ship
without his being hazed, while the BOBBY
traps and apple-pie beds to which he was
subjected should be taken into consider
alton when he retires from active service
and takes his pension.

She Had Fun With the Attendants by Stay.
in the Bathing Pool.
National Review.1
In one of the Indian jails there was
female prisoner who was pre-eminently mis-
chievous and fractions One day when she
and her companions were taken out to bathe
as usual in the Jail tank "a large reservoir,
about 100 yards square) just outside the Jail
walls, this young lady swan out into the
middle of the tank and deied the jailer for
hours. Of course her bathing in the tank
was stopped for time, but at last she pro-
posed to the jailer tn have fetters put on her
legs, so that she could not swim if taken out
, to bathe. The jailer kindly consented to
CRAFTY her whim; but no sooner had she
reached the water than she struck out
boldly swimming, and then pretended to be
drowning from the weight of her fetters.
The jailer was terrified, and came rushing
to me for orders.
1 went to the side of the tank and saw the
lady plunging about like young porpoise,
and setting us all at defiance. A fisher
mans canoe was brought, and the woman
was eventually hunted to the shore, not
without making several attempts to upset
the boat. A great crowd had assembled
while her performance was going on, and
although she had at last to submit to capture,
/ think that she certainly had the best of
the days amusement.

Objects OF the Botanical Society of Western
Pennsylvania.
The Botanical Society of Western Penn
sylvania has just issued circular stating
its purposes, conditions and prospects, with
a view of increasing its membership. From
the few persons who organized it in Octo-
ber, 1886, its membership has increased to
50: and in this time it has accumulated an
herbarium of about 5000 specimens, and a
library of go volumes of interesting and in
structive works on botany. 1t has also
established its position among similar So
cieties in the country; is in correspondence
with number of American and foreign
professors and amateurs, and has inaugur-
ated system of exchange of specimens with
home and European collectors. The society
is, therefore, on firm basis, and its per-
manence assured by its corps of enthusiastic
and efficient workers.
The object of the society as stated in the
constitution s ''to bring into communica-
tion those who are interested in botany, to
advance their knowledge of the subject, and
to create more widespread interest in the
study of plants" The regular meetings are
held on the fourth Thursday of each month
at the Academy of Science and Art (Thaw
mansion), Fifth street, at which papers are
read and discussed, living and dried speci-
mems of plants exhibited, etc There
has also been inaugurated an extra meeting
of practical and instructive character,
held on the second Thursday of each month,
at which not only are fresh plants brought
in and analyzed, but the several orders with
their respective genera and species are sue
cessively taken up and studied; specimens,
old and new, being critically examined, as
signed to their places in the botanical
system, and labeled with their technical
is TO impress on the classification of the
local flora the greatest possible accuracy
and completeness. During the saeson fire.
quent botanical rambles are made by mem
bers for the purpose of collecting flowers
and plants; these are always accompanied
by one or more members competent to
identify the specimens found. The herbar-
ium and library are accessible to members
for examination and study, at all times, un-
der reasonable restrictions
1t is distinctly stated that there is no
qualification of botanical knowledge re-
quired of any applicant for membership.
All that is expected is that one shall haye e
an interest or taste for the study of plants
and flowers, or desire to assist in the sup
port OF the society, and that the application
shall be signed by one member of the soci-
ETY., and approved by the Executive Com
mittee.
With such praiseworthy aim the society
should appeal to every good citizen: The
Corresponding Secretary is Prof. j. Gordon
Ogden, of 105 Forbes avenue.

CHAPTER VI.
END OF A SAD YEAR

This series of miSfortunes 10 which the
.Allaire family had fallen victim placed
Lew Barker in such a peculiar position
that ii became necessary to draw attention

II Will not be forgotten that while Mrs
Ailaire's own property figured up but a
modest total, vet she was the sole heir of
her rich uncle. Edward Manson. still lead
ing a life of retirement on his vast estate of
unclcared land, banished, SO to speak, to
the most inaccessible portion of the State of
Tennessee. This eccentric character was
still under the Selfimposed ban of a life cut
of from the rest of the world As he was
not quite go years of age it might be neces-
sary to wait long while for his money.
Nay, possibly he might modify the testa-
mentary disposition of his property should
he learn that Mrs. Allaire the sole relative
left to him in the direct line, had lost her
reason since the death of her child. But
the news of this double calamity had not
reached him; in fact, it was not possible for
it to reach him, so firmly resolved was he
neither to write nor to receive any letters.
True, it would have been possible for Lew
Barker TO override this Introduction on the
ground of unforeseen changes in Molly's
civil status and Kate had given him to un-
derstdnd IhaC ne was In duty bound to COM
municate with Edward Manson; but he had
enioined silence upon her and taken good
care not to follow her advice.
The condition of Things was really very
simple. If Mrs. Allaire should die child
less this property would descend to her
cousin Kate. Hence Lew Barker recog-
nized the fact that by the death

wife's chances were his own. In truth, it
did seem as if the stars had sought to turn
the tide Of this enormous fortune toward
him. Not only was Molly's child dead, not
only had Molly lost her mind, but in the
Judgment of the physicians nothing save
the return of Captain John would be able
10 work any change in her mental condi-
1ion.
The fate of the Dreadnaught now
seemed almost sealed. II the next few

LANGTRY's MAGNIFYING MIRROR,

New York Press.]
A "complexion artist" with an overpow-
ering curiosity as to the methods which the
Langtry adopted in her marvellous getup,
bribed her maid to admit him into the lady's
dressing room one night when she had gone
to the theater. He saw long, low dressing
table Uttered with all the paraphernalia
which beauty employs to enhance her
charms, but what struck him most was
large oval magnifying mirror, which was
hung in, the most searching light The
treacherous maid informed the pushing Paul
Pry that her mistress, after making up her
face before an ordinary mirror, went all
over it again in front Of the unhattering
magnifer, carefully blending her powder
and rouge, sottening the too trenchant lines
of penciled eyebrow, and plucking out
yacrant silver hair which would assert itself
too boldly.

lines at the corners of the mouth and across
the forehead, the forerunners of age, are by
this means revealed in their horrible reality.

Such is not the case here. Wehave a good,
quiet class of residents, mostly white, with
black polka dots, of course, this being
where slavery used to spawn in the early
days.
But the country is settled by a peaceable
class of agriculturists, who have acquired
from the summer boarder an air of being on
a perpetual vacation. Many farmers in
Western North Carolina, by watching their
chances, are enabled to sell their corn at 40
cents in the fall and buy back a portion of
it in the spring at 81 per bushel to plant
and feed to stock. This builds up traffic
in cereals, and has tendency to make the
farmers son ask himself why the farmer is
the most independent of any class.
A Topdressing Of Footprints.
Our soil here, however, is poor / must
admit that to you, as Secretary of Agricul-
ture, for I would not wish to conceal any
thing from your bureau. Our soil is rather
pleasing red clay, covered with thin top
dressing of footprints deposited here by the
soldiers, who during the war retreated from
each other at high rate of speed, snatch
ing, perhaps, a watermelon from non-com-
blatant as they ran.
To be q non-combatant here and in Ten
nessee and Kentucky during the war was
very exciting. A neighbor tells me that
one night the Federals came and took four
mule teams from his thrashing machine,
and two milk cows. Also his father That
evening the Confederates came and took
four shotes and the grandsire of the family.
Being a very tough old man, however, he
was returned. It was hard enough to be
soldier during the war, but to be nom
combatant at that time, Mr.. Secretary, and
maintain peacesble and friendly relations
with both armies would overtax the tact
and etiquette of an angel.
Very Smooth Railroad Tracks.
Our soil here is about the only soil in the
South that has not been drenched with fra
ternal blood. Either army could escape at
any time by abandoning the roads and allow
ing the enemy to follow, if the enemy ad-
hered to the roads. The wagon roads, even
then, were impossible. To burn the bridges
behind them was a fgurative expression
only, for there were no bridges 1t was so
with the railroads also. 1--WE are riding
much more smoothly now," said a pas
senger to the conductor. EYES," he did
straightway make reply, eve are off the
track now"
Some criticise our agricultural methods
here because we use a single mule for plow-
ing, and a little shovel pillow, such as is
used for plowing corn at the North, but
this is necessary, because the soil Is SO thin
that to "plow deep while sluggards sleep in
order to have corn, corn to sell and keep"
is fatal, for you thereby turn up miserable
red paste with pulverized mica in it, which
constitutes about the only attachment
the North Carolina farmer has for his farm.
Human health is prevalent to a remarka-
BILE degree here, Mr.. Secretary, and it is
IL =
consumption ID unknown. No actual resi-
dents die here. 'd0nly strangers who came
here after it was too late Many Northern
people who come here with advanced
phthisis or tuberculosis die, especially if
both lungs are gone, but if the windpipe
