Couldn't Find Her Son.

A good story is told on a certain western
congressman who came to this city the first
time of1cially at the opening OF the present
session, says the Washington Post. One
night during the recent rainy season the rep
resentative was walking along the avenue in
the vicinity of Sixth street at q very late
hour. II was raining hard. the cable cars had
stopped for the night and there were few peO-
pie on the streets. The congressman was
hurrYlng to his hotel. tightly graSplng an UNI
brella, which was pulled down over his Shout
ders. As he neared Sixth street he noticed
an elderly little woman standing on the cor
ner, heavily bundled up and holding worn
ont parasol over her head. As he approached
the woman she said
Mister. will you please tell me how to get
to Georgetown; L m stranger in the city and
want TO go to my son s house
Georgetown exclaimed the congress
man; why. my good woman, you are two
or three miles from there and the cars have
stopped running. You had better take a
rs it so far as that?' inquired the poor
woman. Then I'll have to walk, for l have
no money" and she sighed heavily as she
drew her thin shawl more tightly over her
shoulders.
The lawmakers heart was touched. He
probably thought Of one of his own family in
a similar predicament. Diving into his trou-
sers pocket, he said:
Let me assist you, madam. Here are a.
Now, you walk over to the depot and hire
cab to take you to your sons house"
He pressed the money into the womans
wet hand and hurried on his way, while she
murmured God bless you, kind sir
They say that the generous congressman
slept better than usual that night, and that
even the next day he had not finished feel
ing good over his kind act, Three nights
afterward, about the same hour the same
congressman was walking along the avenue,
1t was clear, cool night, and, being en-
crossed in a deep study, he did not know any
body was near him until the figure Of a
woman stood in his path, aud he heard her
say:
PLEASE, sir can you tell me the way to
GeOrgeto-s''
CHANGING at the features of the speaker,
the congressman at once recognized the
Won q he had befriended a few nights before
and q he cast frowning glance at her he
said:
Good Lord. woman haven t youfound your
YETI Wei, you Just wait for some other
son sucker to come along, I've been there
once"

The republican senators at Washing
ton in whose states elections are shortly
to be held, are growing FESTIVE to be of
from the capital and upon the stump for
their party. The probabilities are that
some of them will leave the capital next
week; and the unfortunate thing about
their going is that their absence will
tend to strengthen those senators of their
own party who are holding up legislation.
For it must never be forgotten that the
small minority of senators who are. hold
ing the country at bay are republicans,
and that while more or less passive assist
ance is given by the popuIists and a few
democrats, the backbone of the obstruc-
tionists is made up of six or eight silver
state republicans, nearly every one of
whom, either directly himself or indi-
rectly, through the members of his fam
lily. is financially interested in the pro
duction Of silver.

France lost her greatest Irishman day
before yesterday in the death of Marshal
MacMahon. The ex-president, who was
SIS years old and bore the good
old Milesian names of Patrick and Mau-
rice, had served the adopted country of
his family during the whole of his active
manhood, having entered the military
service at the age of Il and gone
through various steps of advancement
even up to the presidency of the republic.
MacMahon received the baton of mar
shall Of France in 1853 in commemoration
of the active part he took in the Italian
campaign and his brilliant victory at
Magenta. He was commander-in-chief at
Sedan on Sept. l, 1870, but received a

There is a fair prospect that the tramps
of the southwest will soon be making life
miserable for Gov. Hogg, of Texas; and
all because of that ill-advised letter of
his, in which he promised bread, not a
fine" to men tramping through Texas
looking for work. Now, as every knows,
every tramp in the country is looking for
work-and inwardly praying that he may
not find 1t; hence all the tramps in the
southwest have turned their steps toward
Texas, expecting to become the
governors guests. The city of Aus
tin reports that they are arriv-
ing there daily in squads of ffties
and hundreds. The other night the
mayor of San Antonio furnished transpor-
tation to twenty-six of the travellers, and
sent them to Austin with letters to Gov
ernor Hogg, stating that as he had ex-
hibited such keen interest of late in the
tramps' welfare, he could give succor to
the unfortunates. AS soon as a gang of
tramps reaches one town the citizens
make up purse and ship them of to the
next station. This gives the tramps a
chance for free ride through the state,
and as they are fed at eating stations.
they may be said to be living in clover
The business men and working men of the
capital fear that the section will be over
run with tramps. The indications now
point that way.

Judge Cooley Writes Again.

Judge Cooley. Of Michigan, has written
! a second letter defining his views with re
gard to the action Of the tilibusterinE
/ senators, reiterauug his opinion as eX-
pressed TO ex-Nayor Hodges. of Balti-
more-that the destruction by the minor
( it, Of the power Of the iority OF the
Senate TO legislate is a setting aside OF
/ constitutional goyernmeut-and suggest
ng way out Of the difficulty His
opinion, which Is given to the New York
Post, is in brief that the majority should
enforce its authority, in view of the fact
that the minority has perverted the Sen
ate's rule of courtesy.
To expose the weakness Of the rule IN
der which the anti-reDealers are operat-
ing now, Judge Cooley says: If the Senate
We're to make a rule declaring that the
minority might by talk for the express
purpose, and by dilatory motion having
no other object, or in any other way stop
legislation and prevent the majority pro-
ceeding TO vote, the rule would be void
because depriving the Senate of its con
stitutional power. If a custom to that
effect were to grow up and be tolerated
by courtesy as one that in so dignitied
body would not be abused, it would be
equally void, and the Senate in recogniz-
ing it to the extent of permitting The mi
nority to decide what its action should
be, or that no action should be had when
the minority so declared, would be taking
a revolutionary course"
To end the deadlock it would be only
necessary to disregard the unconstitu-
tional custom thus disposed of; and this
is the manner ia which the Judge says il
should be disregarded: Members Of
the majority should make the proper mo-
tions looking to definite and final action
on the pending measure, and the presid-
ing officer should recognize them, since
only in that way can the inevitable right
of the Senate to express its will be exer-
cised. If this is not done, upon an as
sumption that in some manner, by the ac-
tion or the non-action in the Senate, it
has become impossible unless the minori-
ty assents, then the leading principle in
representative government is in one
house of congress abrogated. This is a
monstrous proposition. 1t is not true un-
less a revolution is already effected in
our government. The Senate has all the
powers to-day it ever had, and one of
them IS to proceed to take the sense of
its members upon proposed legislation
This, it would seem, states the situa-
ton clearly and concisely, and points
Messrs. Voorhees, and Stevenson to their
duty in the premises. The minority
party have had all the time that they
could possibly need to state their posi-
ton; why permit them to trample the
constitution, disregard the country and
defy the majority9

Who is a Master Of the Piano.
Waycross, Ga, Oct. 1S.-Furney c.
Slocum is a negro pianist of remarkable
natural ability. Heis native Of Colds
bora n. c. -Four years ago ;he began
practicing on the piano, at odd times,
while he was employed as a mattress
maker. Later on he became famous in
that community for his wonderful must
cal talent. He was then occupying posi-
ton as bell boy in a hotel. The Robin
son family at Goldsboro have long
been famous in that section
for their remarkable musical
talent. F'urney, being at times a servant
of the Robinson family, soon became IA
miliar with all the pieces played by the
different members of the family. He
surprised them on one occasion when
there was gathering of friends at the
residence, after obtaining permission to
play a piece on the piano, by rendering
the most delightful music they had ever
heard from the noted musicians of this
country. His exquisite touch and fas-
cinating expression, used in the most diff
ticult pieces, won for him the adni-
ration of all present. He had never re-
ceiyed a lesson or the slightest instruc-
ton in Instrumental music and was totally
ignorant Of the notes or any part of
music. Three years ago at Savannah he
was requested TO play the piano at
theatrical performances He delighted the
audience and was frequently applauded.
He then went to Brunswick, where he
was given 50 a week to'play a piano in a
barroom. He filed that position until
the yellow fever broke out the second
time, aud he then came to WayCross after
having been detained al Camp Haines ten
days. He is now bell boy at the South
