Garrulous Mrs. Chugwater.


Samantha" grumbled Mr.. Chugwater of the
Chicago Tribune, fumbling in one of the bureau
drawers, I'D like to know where, in the name
of common sense you keep my socks?"
What pair do you want, Josiahg' inquired
Mrs, ChugwaUer.
Amy pair, if they are only mates. Here's an
odd gray sock and an odd black one, and down
here in the corner is an old pair of last sum
mer's socks, with holes in the toes. don't see
why my things can't be kept in order, the
same as other MEMS
IF you had only told me"
Told you! Have got to run to you, Mrs.
Chugwater, for every little thing l want? Is
that your idea about how to carry on a house,
hold businessG If you'd just take trouble
enough to pile things in here so l could find
'em when want 'em it would save me lots of
bother"
Josiah. if you will let me-"
Now, there's no use of you getting excited
about this thing. If you know where can get
a pair of halfway decent socks just say so, and
I'll hunt 'em up, and if you don't know and
will have the kindness to put the fact in
all"
IF you hadn't tum bled these things all out of

"Tumbled them out of shape have l? What's
| a bureau drawer for anyway? Is it to hide
things in, madam? If l don't find what want
on top, haven't | got to look down under, I'd
like to know? Any woman that will pack and

them so you've got to dig and claw all through

you say so, instead of standing around like a

II could have found them for you in a min
ute and saved you all this trouble If you had
given me chance" said Mrs. Chugwater, as
she Strengthened out the taugle in the drawer
and brought to view from one of the bottom
corners five pairs Of clean SOCKS. "When you
want anything of this kind hereafter, Josiah,

Mr.. Chugwster, as he jerked pair from the

Blair Had TO Scoot.

Ex-senator Blair was obliged to leave the city
in q hurry, says the Chicago Herald, owing to
his misinterpretation of the time card. He did
not have sufficient time to gather up all of his
luggage, and the clerks at the Auditorium were
requested to send some of the things to Wash
ington. While hurriedly giving orders at the
office the cashier asked; "How about your bill?''
supposing that Mr.. Blair would order it for

DO you mean to say that the bill won't be

Stalking OuaY's Help.

The President, it seems, feels that he
must have Senator Quay's help in his cam
vass for denomination. Notwithstanding
| the fact that he returned to Washington
well pleased with the welcome he had re-
ceived from the people during his entire
| journey to the Pacific ocean and back, he
realizes that without the assistance Of such
shrewd politicians as Senator Quay his
prospect for getting a denomination would
not be as promising as he would like to
have it. The people who crowd the plat
forms of railway depots when distinguished
visitors are to be received may render much
needed help in an election, but they are not
the ones who control the selection of dele
gates to nominating conventions.
The President wants a delegation from
Pennsylvania to the national convention
that will favor his nomination, and he
Of getting it unless he has the good will of
Senator Quay. Postmaster General Wanna
maker may be very good man to have along
in a swing around the circle, because he
distributes taffy to the people and interests
the children with stories having a Sunday
school favor, but in the manipulation Of a
political convention he cannot be COM
pared with Senator Quay.
But the President will not get any assist
ance from Senator Quay unless be pays for
it-that is, unless he agrees to let the sena-
tor distribute the federal patronage in
Pennsylvania to suit himself. Last winter
the President put him on his black list, be-
cause the senator refused to follow the Har-
rison programme with respect to the force
bill, and the senator's recommendations in
the matter of appointments were ignored
The senator, therefore, will not help the
President to a denomination, unless 1t is to
his interest to do SO.
And Senator Quay is careful to have it
understood that he is not asking anything
of the President. If an interview between
them takes place, it will be because the
President has sought it. At present the
senator is In a position to make demands.
He is not asking favors.
And the President cannot but be con-
scious of a slight feeling of humiliation in
asking the assistance of the man who was
on his black list few months ago, and
who was charged openly with having been
guilty of crooked transactions while hold.
ing an important office in Pennsylvania.
But politics makes strange bedfellows. The
President is now ready to ask aid of the man
he 50 recently refused to welcome at the
white house. Truly he is determined to
have denomination at any cost.

Apparently IL /, a vcry hard matter for the

Apparently IL is a very hard matter for the
cable correspondents to decide just what did
cause the ruction in the middle of which the
Czarowitz acquired sore head. One YER
sion is to the effect that the imperial young
traveller was profaning native temple
when Mortified guard smote him a hard
smite with sharp sword. after which the
guard was knocked quite piecs by royal
companion of the Russian prince. Another
story recites that the gay party was having
a riporoaring time with the boys, during
which they proceeded to take possession of a
music hall. wherein the hopeful son and
heir of the Russian autocrat was smartly
belabored with a cudgel Of some sort to
deponent unknown. In any event the
Czarowitz seems to have been at least meas
urably to blame and should bear his hurts
without complaint. To do the young man
justice there is really no authentic report
20 the effect that he harbors any grievance
Probably he merely regards it as a simple
incident In the experience Of lifetime.
That's the manly way. It's nothing 10 the
lively shaking up be may expect when he
comes 10 the throne Of his fathers.

Kansas Wants a hird Party.


Kansas delegates dominate the Cincinnati
conference. and they want new party. At
their caucus on Monday night they refused
to listen to the alliance congressman from
their state, Simpson and Glover, who coun-
seled moderation, and advised that no steps
| be taken toward organizing a new party
until it could be determined whether there
was stamina enough in the movement to
justify the nomination of an independent
presidential ticket They suggested the
advisability of waiting until next spring be-
fore determining whether or not TO start
new party. Their suggestion was received
with such marks of disapproval that they
must have been convinced that they have
not yet reached the position of influential
and trusted leaders.
The truth is the Kansas allisncemen, who
were nearly all republicans, have severed
their connection with the Republican party,
and unless they join the Democratic party
or start a new party they will be out In the
cold, as it were. They can't very well go
back to the Republican party, because they
havs condemned it in unmeasnred terms,
and they have said so much against the
Democratic party that they feel that they
cannot consistently act with the demo
Gratis. There is, therefore, nothing for
them to do but to start
new party. And it would not be surpris-
ing if they should have a pretty lonely time
of it. 1t will be difficult, if not impossible,
to harmonic the different elements which
are represented at Cincinnati. There are
more cranks at the conference than ever at
tended any other political gathering since
this government was founded. Some want
one thing and some another, and it will be
remarkable if platform is adopted that
will command the respect and confidence of
any considerable number of people in any
part of the country.
1t became apparent on Monday that
western alliancemen were displeased with
the indifference of southern alliancemen
with respect to a new party. As most Of
the western men were republicans they did
not like the idea of drawing votes from the
Republican party without being able also
to weaken the Democratic party, Some of
them boldly asserted that they did not in
tend to be used as a cat's-paw to aid the
Democratic party to success in the next
election.
But that is just what they will do if they
start a new party. 1t can be stated with
certainty that southern alliancemen are not
going to abandon the Democratic party un-
less they have stronger reasons for doing so
than exist at present. They under
stand the Importance of democrats in
the south standing together. They realize
the danger of disrupting the Democratic
party in the south at this time,
and they are not likely to invite
that danger to crafty western
men who have no particular reason to con.
tinue to support the Republican party.
There are comparatively few southern men
at the conference and there would be few in
third party if one should be started.
