THE WRONG PLACE FIRST.
Beau Hickman's Little Mistake Cost
Him Fifty Dollars.

Hickman, who was the Beau Brummell
OF Washington several years ago, even
when he had not a cent in his pocket and
his clothes were thread bare, contrived to
have the appearance of a man faultlessly
attired, says the Cleveland Leader. One
evening, with no money in his pocket
and not knowing where his dinner was
TO come from, he sauntered forth with
hat well brushed, perfect fitting gloves
and his usual boutonniere.
Walking down a well known street in
Washington he entered one Of the princi-
pal hotels, noted for its excellent cuisine.
Slowly walking toward the dining room
a waiter rushed to meet him with the
words, "Will you dine, sir?" Slightly
bowing his head he followed the waiter,
who conducted him to a table, relieving
him of his hat, cane and gloves.
He dined sumptuously, not even omit
ting his favorite vino and good cigar.
Having finished the waiter presented
his check. Taking no notice, he called
for his hat aud gloves and proceeded to
walk out of the place. The waiter stopped
him and said
"You have not settled your bill, sir"

"but thank you for a very fine dinner"
The proprietor was called, was very

measures OF Une mouse
Free eSilver-Appropriation
These have slumbered hitherto in the
committee on finance. but determined
effort will no doubt be made to bring them
out and to send them up to the president
for his action. The house may possibly be
given an opportunity to reconsider its
action and to take up the senate's free
coinage of silver bill. The silver men will
try to bring this about. The appropria-
tions for the current year will probably
evoke little discussion except in one i'm
portant respect Secretary of the Treasury
Fostes, TO whom the law requires that all
estimates shall be sent prior to the meeting
of congress, has already intimated in
formally that those estimates will simply
be a duplication of the appropriations
which congress has already agreed TO be
necessary for this year, and that no re-
concentrations will be made for any in
creases of expenditure or of force.
Where the Trouble VIII Begin.
The one exception upon which lively
discussion may be looked for is t. at part
of the sundry civil bill which makes appro-
prlation for eXpentes of the United States
courts, commissioners, and marshals and
deputy marshals. Allison stated to the SEN
ate when reporting the sundry civil bill for
this year, as agreed upon in conference,
that the reductions made in the house
would inevitably result in a deficiency. The
senate wished to appropriate $4,000 for
fees and expenses of United States mar
shals and Deputies" the house cut the
amount down to s675, 600 Any attempt to
appropriate for deficinciencies under these
heads will assuredly precipitate debate
which will bring up the whole question Of
the election laws and their enforcement.
