Washington Letter.


WASHINGTON, Aug, 12.-The chair
man of the committee in charge oil the
preparations ior the G. A. X. encampment
has issued a circular letter, which has
been mailed to every post in the united
States, containing important Information
for intending visitors, the main point Oh
which is that all visitors, whether connect
ed with the G. A. r. or not, should secure
their quarters through the committee pe-
fore coming here, and should notify the
committee when they expect TO arrive
This is timely and should be needed Dy
all who intend coming to the encamp-
ment. It will save them time, worry ana
money, as the committee will allow no ex,
,ortion in charges for anything contracted
for through It, and If visitors attempt 10
secure Accommodations after they get here'
on their own hook, they will have to take
their chances of dealing with persons with
or without CONSCIENTIOUS scruples against
robbing the stranger within their gates.
Senators Allison and Jones, two OF the
republican commissioners TO the interna-
tional monetary conference, had talk
with Secretary of State Foster about the
conference this week.
The committee on naval reunions oil tne
coming G, A. r. encampment has decided
to have built on the White lot, where all
the reunions are TO be held, a full'sized
model OF the old war ship "Kearsage," in
the cabin of which will be the headquart-
ers of that committee. The model will be
24O feet long and its prov will point di'
rectly to the white house. The idea Is
considered very happy one,
Mr.. Holman succeeded in having Sl0,-
600 cut from the appropriation for repairs
and maintenance of the white house fol-
the present year. Consequently the COM
p,etion of the interior decorations, began
last summer, and which it was expected
would be completed this year, will have
to wait. Great statesman, that Holman.
Considerable inconvenience will b'
caused the sixth auditors office, WhIcl
audits all the postmasters accounts, by
the failure, on account of somebody
blunder, to incorporate In the clvi

ident an item carrying an appropriation o

clerks for six months to assort seyera

FACTS ABOUT LIFE.
Figures Showing the Healthiest Parts o
the World.

Figures Showing the Hcalthiest Parts o.
the World.
AS matter of fact, the average life
of all the babies that come into the
world is only about 3S years; very few
live to be over 90, and not more than
one out of 1000 sees his Tooth birthday.
In the year 1889 out of every 1000 per-
sons living in the following countries
there died: In England, IS; in Norwav,
II; in Sweden, 10; in Austria, 81; in
Hungary, SO; in Germany, 23; in France,
81, and in Italy, 25 How many died in
the United States we do not know, be-
cause no account Of them was kept in
the greater part of the country, but 1t
was probably II or IS out of each 1000
living. We do know however,
that they died faster in some cities
than in others. For example, out OF
each 1000 people living there died dur
ing the year ending May 81, 1890, in
New York city, 81; in Brooklyn, 25; in
Boston, "a; in Philadelphia, 90; in Chi
cago, 81; in Detroit, 20; in St. Louis, 10;
and in Minneapolis, Is, while in the
country districts the loss was only
II or 12 out of each 1000.
Let us see where the greatest num-
Der Of old people, in proportion to the
total population, are to be found living
in the United States. An examination
of the records of the tenth census shows
that in 1880 this was in New England.
OF each 100000 white persons there
were then living and over so years old
in Connecticut, 900; in Maine, l,l47; in
Massachusetts, 500; in New Hampshire,
1,47s; in Rhode Island, s27; and in Yer
mont, 1922. These are higher figures
than are shown for any other state. In
New York the corresponding proper
ton was 563; in Pennsylvania, All; in
Maryland, 347; and in Delaware, 400
In Ohio it was 412; in Indiana, 26l; N
Illinois, 215; in Iowa, 21s; in Michigan

lima, AL; in Florida, 2O4; in Georgia

A Daring Young onicer Who would siay

A Daring Young Oficer Who Would siay
L. Himself Slain.
The most distinguished ghost Of all
appears 70 be the black lady Of the cas-
tie Of Darmstadt, says Galigani's Mes
senger. In deep mourning she comes TO-
announce the death OF some member
OF the families Of the grand duke Of
Hesse or Of the Bavarian royal fami-
lies.
The apparition OF this lady has from
time immemorial produced sort Of
panic among the troopsof the garrison.
The boldest sentinels are afraid Of her.
One day young officer OF the grena-
diers solicited from the Grand Duke
Louis /. the favor Of acting as sentinel
ut the door of the chapel through which
the mysterious visitor was expected to
pass. 'Tf it is not a genuine ghost"
he said, ~ will cure the practical joker
Of his nonsense"
II was agreed that the officer should
order the phantom TO halt and II II did
not obey fire upon It. The grand duke
and few courtiers posted themselves
in the vestry Of the chapel, from which
they could see the path that, according
to the legend, the black lady always fol-
lowed.
As midnight approached the gayety
Of the royal group decreased. The
clock struck twelve. Before the sound
Of the last stroke had died away they
heard In the distance: Haiti Who goes
there?" Then there was shot
The grand duke and the people Of his
suite came out from their hiding place
and ran into the courtyard The brave
young officer was stretched on the

his face.
After leaving the store my companion
and I walked for some distance in 81
lence. There were times when Charles
Cornell seemed powerless to converse,
and at those times he exerted such an
influence on me that I was dumb, too.
He had one Of those spells now, sup
posed, and while he stalked gloomily,
or rather solemnly, on, kept step with
him, wondering what weighty thoughts
could be In possession of his mind.
We had gone a couple of blocks, per
haps, when he suddenly turned his face
TO me, as II Just becoming aware OF my
presence, inquiring with the most as
tonishing abruptness:
"Are you happy, Miss owens2"
"Happy?" repeated, hooking up to
him in perfect surprise, quite startled
out Of my wits by question SO unex-
pected.
Eyes, happy" he replied. "Are you
really and truly happyP"
"Why, lam as happy as I have right
to expect, suppose. Why do you
ask?"
~ Just wished to know. That's all"
"Do appear unhappy" asked, be-
lieving he had purpose in asking the
question, and wishing to know what
that purpose was.

"He is kind and not over-exacting,
and l have no reason to find fault with

"I'm very glad of that" he said; "but

rye box OF precious treasures
Which guard with Jealous care,
Though know no thief would take them
Even II he found them there,
For no heart but mine would cherish
Fen the rarest Of the set,
Nc other eyes could read the stories
Which never can forget.
There are bits Of silk and ribbon
Buttons strings OF beads and lace,
Tiny shells and rings and pictures
Each recalling some dear face.
There are locks Of hair and letters
All, those letters are 80 dear,
For their words Of love and friendship
Make those distant days, seem near.
And each trinket tells story
OF childhood, youth or older years,
Tells OF loving ties now broken,
Scenes Of pleasune, scenes OF tears.
Tells OF loving words and wishes,
Dear they ars-their value naught-
Dear because loved the givers,
Value ne'er by money bought
Then book OF autographs,
But as / read the tears oft come,
For so many have departed
For their bright eternal home.
Thus, with q smile, tear and signing
For the friends OF childhood's day,
put my treasures in their casket,
And, locked with love, put II away.
