He grew more garrulous and intense as
the early rotations melted his brain.
Before he had concluded that fresh
air would be better for him than my
society. there entered a distinguished
foreigner who has the reputation OF
being more shrewd and cunning than
wise. He has been engaged in great
many confidence games of great magni-
tude and succeeded upon an occasion in
dipping one of the greatest nations of
the world by inducing its executive au-
thorities to embark in wild and weird
money-making scheme which came to
naught. He desired to interest me in a
new venture. and it took him more than
half an hour to place the details of his
scheme before me- Meantime my
southern friend remained seated in the
front Office while this was transpiring
in my sanctum.

Judge resumed his narrative and con.
tinued it for another quarter of an
hour, when looked at my watch and
informed him that a previous engage

the Office with me and continued to
chatter in my ear until we reached the
Press club and l escaped behind the
portals of that friendly retreat.

to read thos. papers if possible and

by a friend of my boyhood who took a
chair and Immediately proceeded to en-
terrain me with "reminiscences of the
days when we were boys together and
loved the same girls. This lasted for
about fifteen minutes when he sur
prised me with the information that he
was in hard luck, penniless and without
a place to sleep, and without money
with which to buy breakfast. He not
only took my time, but also took FIVE
dollar bill, and departed, promising to
call soon again. He furthermore in
formed me that he hoped to secure a
government Office here and would be
glad to make use of my influence; as
though the standing and reputation
gained by me after many years hard
work were mere bagatelle to be
banded about for the benefit of paupers
and beggars, with scarcely a thank
you as a return.

Especial Washington letter.
One of the best descriptive letters ever
given publication by Hon. Amos j.
Cummings was one entitled 1.-THE Ex-
periences of a Congressman for One Day
Only" 1t recited the doings and say
ings of a day, from sunrise until after
midnight Before breakfast he read a
number of letters and dictated replies
to about thirty of them; while at break
fast the cards of five different persons
seeking Office were received; after
breakfast he disposed of each of them
in his parlor with a promise or denial
Of Office; on the way to the capitol he
met two constituents and about twenty
people interested in private bills who
desired his influence and assistance:
and then the working of the house of
representatives was described in his
most vivid and realistic manner. The
remaining work of the day consisted of
interviews with statesmen upon public
affairs; further conversations with con-
stituents and Office seekers, and the
hours after ten o'clock were spent with
his stenographer answering more let
tiers, preparing bills for introduction in
the house, and the preparation of re-
ports of committees on bills already
favorably considered. Altogether it
was regarded by newspaper men in
Washington q remarkable piece of de-
scriptive work.
The experiences of Washington cor
respondent for one day have, l believe,
never been presented to the reading
public; but their proper portrayal would
result in as interesting and possibly as
instructive story of a phase of life in
the national capital

Under the Spell of a Curse.

From the Fort Worth Gazette.
There is young woman in Bonner
Springs, Kansas, who believes she is nm.
der the influence of a curse. She is a
most estjmable young woman but some
time ago, while suffering from nervous
attack, she was accosted by tramp who
came to her door and sbegged for some
thing to eat. AS the family had been Sc
bothered with tramps, she answered him
very shortly and told him to get away
from the place, or she would set the dogs
on him. The man insisted that he was
almost starving, and she slammed the
door in his face.
About an hour later a knock came +o
the door, and she went there only to
find that the man had returned This
time he did not ask for food but as
soon as the door was opened. he beoan
calling down maledictions on the head
of the girl. At first she was inclined ia
get angry, and started to call for sore
one to nave the man arrested, but as his
bitter words continued she became terri.
bly, frightened, AMI, at last, tainted. in
which condition she was found by her
mother, who had heard the noise. The
man had disappeared. During the
curse the tramp had called down a spirit
of unrest on her, and told her that he
wished her to always feel hungry and
like wandering, so that she would know
what it was to be poor tramp.
The girl was i'll for several days after
the adventure, but is now in apparent
good health. She says that she feels
that she is under curse. She is
restless, and spends her time walking up
and down about the place, and complains
of never getting enough to eat She
eats very little, for her stomach will not
bear it, but she says she never feels as
If she had anything to eat.
Physicians who have been called in to
see her pronounce it a case of hysterical
mania, and think THAI it will wear off in
the course Of time, if efforts are made to
get the girls mind from the tramp. The
parents are making Iefforts to send her
east to visit relatives. but the girl insists
that she is perfectly well, except that
she knows the tramps curse will follow
her to the grave.
