A Misunderstanding

There is a funny story told in the Senate of
the mistake made by a member Of that body at
the time of Gen. Arson McCook's marriage
some years ago, says Kate Fields Washington
Senator Dolph undertook TO get up q subscrip-
ton for a suitable wedding present. and, offer
ing the paper TO one ofhis colleagues who was
somewhat deaf explained the case and asked
for what amount he might put his name down
ia the list. The senator from oregon was
TO meet with point-bank refusal. The affair
was the moro inexplicable as the senator Of
whom the conEibution was desired was known
90 be warm Personal friend of Gen. McCook.
Later in the day the situation was uncon-
soously explained by the offending senator,
who remarked TO a group of his friends: What
the deuce do you suppose Dolph means. He
his cook was going to be married, actually
asked me to contribute for a wedding present."

The Apprehension Aroused by His
Relapse Last Night Disappears with
Reassuring News This Morning.

sion aroused last night by the report
that Mr. Blaines condition had taken
another turn for the worse, that the
long looked for but none the less dreaded
issue of his disease was at hand. happily,
was not warranted by the developments
of the hours as they passed away
The difficulty the patient experienced
was reported to be a slight obstruction
In his respiratory apparatus. At once
the suggestion obtruded itself that
another heart failure was yelled under
this euphonem, and this was strength
ened by the announced determination Of
one of the physicians TO remain at the
house all night, aud further still by the
statement that nitro glycerne had been
again resorted TO as stimulant.
II the complication were indeed a heart
failure, the evil effects were soon over
come, however, for after DR.. Hyatt
entered the house about midni ht, there
We're no indications Of life within until
the hour for opening this morning. Dr..
Hyatt left his patient at 10 He
stated TO the reporters that Mr. Blaine
had passed a very good night compare
lively. and was then resting easily He
had been awakened just before the
doctor left, and some nourishment ad
ministered
