Our Washington Letter.

WASHINGTON, Sept. Q, 1892.
Mr.. Harrison's letter Of accept
aHce was a very decided innovation
in that line. 1t breaks all prece-
dents and instead Of being a letter
Of acceptance pure and simple, it
is, in addition, a carefully and
SkAlfully prepared lawyers plea
for the republican party in general
and the Harrison administration in
particular, and like other able
lawyers pleas it is liable to i'm
pose on those who are not familiar,
aud who will not take the trouble
to famiiarize themselves with the
other side. II shows, too, that the
stories which have from time to
time been told Of Mr.. Harrison's s
intention TO individually boss the
republican side of the campaign
were all founded on the solid truth.
The intention has become a fact,
and to-day Mr.. Harrison is the
acknowledged boss ofthe republican
National committee, which is con-
ducting the campaign according to
his orders. 1t is known here that
the publication of the letter of ac-
ceptance this week was directly
against the wishes of Chairman
Carter and a number of the working
members of the committee; they
wanted it held back at least month,
but boss Benjamin ordered it given
out, and given out it was.
Mr.. Harrison's attempt to dodge
the Force bill issue in such a way
as to leave the impression upon
those who favor that outrage upon
Constitutional liberty that he j:
still with them-as he really is,
heart and soul-and at the same
time make those opposed TO it be-
lieve that he has abandoned it, il
| like most efforts OF a similar
nature-supremely ridiculous, and
meets only with meaning smiles in
every quarter. Democrats and Re
publicans alike know just where
Mr.. Harrison stands upon thi'
question; that, if be be reelected
and the next House of Representa-
tives be controlled by the republic
ans, he will in his first message t
the Fifty-third Congress ask tha
a bill similar to the notorious Lodge
bill Of the Fifty.frst Congress b'
passed. There is only one way foI
this country TO escape the horrors
of the Force bill, which in on'
section of the country would be al
bad as a visitation of the cholera
and that is, to defeat Benjamin
Harrison and the republican party

Education in Switzerland,

The systemeof education in practice
among the Swiss is enlightened and far
reaching. Not only are pupils under a
strict and kindly discipline while at
school, but they are also made to feel
that the warning and protecting care Of
their tutors is over them whenever they
are outside the fathers house. AS soon
as the child is in the street he has passed
from the circle of his home, and that
moment begins the schools authority.
Regulations, printed on slips and
dropped in every house, contain, among
a score of others equally sensible, the
following rule relating to outdoor man.
ners:
Delay of any kind between the
scholars home and school is not al
lowed. No whooping, yelling, throwing
stones and snowballs, teasing children
or ridiculing age and deformity can be
endured. Grown persons shall be met
with civility as they pass. Thus shall
honor be reflected on the school,"
Once in the classroom the pupil is
taught department. as well as his three
"sR's. He is told how to walk, stand
and speak, and a blot upon his book and
a smudge on his face are regarded as
equally bad.-Youth's Companion.

An Elastic Month.

The month that closes next week we
may call elastic, because every fourth
year it is stretched to accommodate an
extra day. A good many hundred years
ago it was found that the solar year
was about 1861 days in length, and
that occasionally it would be necessary
to add day in order to keep up the
average. Forty-nine years before the
birth of Christ, this extra day was as
signed to February as being the short
est month, % days, In the original
arrangement of the calendar by Julius
Caesar, January, March, May, July,
September and November consisted of
thirty-one days each, while February
had twenty-nine and April, June,
August and December were thirty-day
months. When Augustus Cesar came
to the thcone, he felt affronted that the
month of August, named for him, had
not so many days as July, called after
Julius Caesar. Accordingly he issued
a decree that August should, have
thirty-one days, and consequently
February was shortened to twenty
eight in ordinary years. This is
leap year, and hence the above may be
interesting, but we wish further to say
that be the months long or short, the
elegant fast trains of The Burlington
leave most of the principal cities of the
West every day in the year. For
tickets, rates, maps, etc., ask any rail-
road ticket agent, or apply to w. J. G.

About 2 o'clock last Saturday morn
ing fire broke out in Crawford & Chap
mans barber shop and in a short space
of time the building was reduced to a
shapless pile of smouldering cinders
and ashes. The fire was we'll under
way before it was discovered and moth
ing was saved. It was one of the
neatest and best arranged barber shops
in the State outside the large cities.
There were two bath rooms where hot
and cold water baths could be had
every day in the year; the bath fixtures
alone cost $400. The building was in
sured for $3.50, and the contents for
1925, in the Phenix of Brooklyn.
The Phenix is a reliable company and
Agent Keith says the loss will be
promptly adjusted. Messrs. Crawford
& Chapman are temporarily located in
Virginia's cigar factory, and intend to
rebuild on the old site early in the
spring.

Many Commonplace People.

It takes absolute self reliance and not
a little courage for a chap to make the
start from just where he happens to be
when project presents itself to him. A
majority Of us not only desire to wait
until things shape themselves to our
wishes, but we insist upon making that
wait. The man who says IN do it, :"
and keeps his word, is phenomenal; the
one who makes the promise and tries to
keep it, sometimes failing and some
times succeeding, is exceptional, and the
one who says he will achieve the result
and lets both project and promise stop
with the making Of the speech is com
monplace to the last degree. Accord
ingly a very large majority of us are
commonplace.-Detroit Free Press.

Where Woman Has the Advantage.

Where Woman Has the Advantage.
Whatever disadvantages a woman
lawyer may be under in the practice Of
her profession, she has certain compen-
sating advantages which her brothers at
the bar can never enjoy. A little Incl
dent in the chambers part of the supreme
court the other day will illustrate this
point. It was Monday, which is always
the busiest day Of the week in this
branch of the court. There was an I'M
usually long calendar this day, and al
though it was almost o'clock the court
room was still crowded with fifty or
sixty lawyers, who had been waiting i'm
patiently since II o'clock to argue their
motions or to get Tex parte" orders
signed. There was an unusually large
pile of these orders on the judges desk
waiting to be signed, because his honor
had been so busy that he had been I'M
able to attend to them. ~. .
A modest looking, neatly dressed young
woman came into the courtroom with
some legal papers in her hand. She
walked up to the rail, while the clerk
quickly came forward, all attention.
He took the papers which she carried
and handed them to the Judge immedi-
ately, while the court officers hustled
around and brought her chair. The
arguments of the legal lights were
stopped, his honor took the papers,
glanced over them quickly and put
some hieroglyphics, which stood for his
signature, at the bottom of them, the
clerk handed the documents back to the
young woman, and in less than five
minutes after she entered the court
room the woman lawyer had accom-
plished her object and gone back to her
Office
Just as she was disappearing through
the door a lawyers clerk came up to the
rail-
HAS the judge signed that order
which I handed up this morning?" he
asked.
NO." was the reply, che will not sign
any orders before or 8 o'clock. New

Sip Your Milk Slowly.

Many people complain that they can
not drink milk without being distressed
by it. The reason is that they drink it
too fast. If glass of milk is swallowed
hastily it enters the stomach, and then
forms in one solid, curdled mass difficult
OF digestion. At least four minutes
should be occupied in drinking glass of
milk, so that in reaching the stomach it
will, be so distributed that when coagu-
lated, as it must be by the gastric juice,
instead of being in one hard, condensed
mass, it will be more in the form of a
sponge.-St. Louis Globe-Democrat

Tuesday, the 9Th of March. is annua

Tuesday, the 9Th Of March, is annual
town meeting day. It does not look as
if there would be any strife over the
town offices in Princeton. It is gener-
ally conceded that VIM. Cordiner as
chairman of the board is the right man
in the right place. We understand
that supervisors Harter and Umbe-
hooker will not be candidates for re-
election. Probably John Dalchow will
be the candidate from the eastern por-
tion of the town, and G. j. Pinkham is
talked of in the west end. There
should be one Republican on the board.
Johnny Goulding will have no opposi-
tion for town clerk, and r. f. McClel-
Ian will probably succeed himself as
assessor. #.... a.

Two Birthdays.

There are two Brooklyn women, warm
friends, whose ages are the same, their
birthdays even falling upon the same
day. They had passed thirty and were
not yet forty, and one of them had made

forty. At last came the fortieth birth
day. Mrs. Brown called up her friend,
Mrs. Bennett, and said over the tele-
phone wire, "This is my birthday"
