BAD CASE OF THE BIG HEAD.

The present member of the cabinet from
Massachusetts,, In the few brief weeks he has
been I'm office, has succeeded In exciting very
spirited resentment on the part of visitors
who have called on public business. Two
well-known Senators are on record as say
ing they will never again enter the depart
ment OF which he is the head while he re-
mains there. One OF these Senators related
the particulars of his first aud last call.
When he was announced the cabinet minis
ter merely looked up at him and then went
on reading n lot OF letters and papers on his
desk. The Senator ma rched around the
room In suppressed Impotence and when the
letters and papers were finally laid aside he
approached the desk and began TO commu-
nicate the object of his visit. Immediately
the documents were again picked up and the
attention of the cabinet minister became FIX
edly concentrated upon them. The hint was
sufficient. A few days since gentleman OF
high ability, Of marked distinction In public
life and a personal friend OF the President
called. Presenting. and perhaps naturally,
that he had called in the Interest OF some Of
tice-sseker. although such was not the case,
he was sternly reOuked for his assurance in
undertaking to consume the valuable time
OF the cabinet minister. The very soul OF
courtesy anu good breeding, he was so over
whelmed with such reception as 10 be al
most incapable OF speech, ana II may well be
imagined his stay was not protracted.-Bat-
tipOre Sun.
The cabinet officer referred TO is. of
course, Attorney General Richard Oh
ney, who seems to be afflicted with
inflated Uranium to an insufferable
degree. The Suns story will be read
with more interest, however, when it
is understood that the gentleman re-
ferred to last is Hon. w. L. Wilson, of
this State.
The tale was told the REGISTER diff
ferently, though. 1t appears that
Mr.. Wilson had entered the august
presence through the Office of the as
sistant Attorney General, without
complying with certain ceremonials
required by Mr.. Olney. The man
from Boston in an insulting manner
asked Mr.. Wilson how he got in there,
and what he wanted, and then pro
ceeded TO air his Importance and SUI
periority. Mr.. Wilson was not SO
overwhelmed as to be incapable Of
speech, as the Sun has it. On the
he firmly and politely in
formed Mr.. Olney that he wanted no
insoience from any one-horse corpo-
ration lawyer, had now no desire to
business with him. And then
in his polite way Mr.. Wilson gave the
General an intellectual
dressing down that that worthy will
be apt to remember for some time TO
come. Having freed his mind, the
walked out, leaving the
Acknowledgement in possession of a
very red face.

Little Judith, the eight year old
daughter of Mr. Mullineaux, Of the
Inland Christian AdvOcate, Des Moines,
Iowa, on learning that her specia
playmate, a child of her own age, had
taken the whooping cough, took a
bottle Of medicine, which had cured
her of a troublesome cough, and went
over and said: You must take this
medicine; it will do you good Mr..
Mullineaux was curious as to the re-
suit and on making inquiry learned
that the little neighbor, who had
been unable TO rest at night, had been
greatly relieved in that respect. The
paroxysms were neither SO frequent,
severe or enduring. The cough, un-
der the genial action Of this admira-
BILE remedy, was loosened. The med
icine liquifies the mucus and enables
the sufferer to throw it of. The at
tack in the beginning gave every evil
dence of being Il severe attack OF
whooping cough. Indeed it WAS
genuine case; but this preparation,
while perhaps it may not be posi-
tive cure for the disease, is undoubt-
edlv able to alleviate il. IL il does
not cure it, it will give unquesIioned
relief. The medicine referred to Is

TOO Many Offoe-Seekers.

Ex-Governor Fleming spent day
or two in Washington last week with
the West Virginia delegation in that
city and took a look over the politi-
cal field. When asked what he
thought of the prospects for West
Virginia appointments he replied:
Washington is full OF West Virgin
ians. There are entirely too many
there from this State seeking Office,
and many more than can pos IDLY be
accommodated Encouraged by the
liberal allowance OF public patronage
given to West Virginia by President
Harrison, which was done for purely
political purposes, great many Dem
ocrats have sought appointments
which there is scarcely any chance OF
their getting. The fact is there will
be many disappointments. Under
Harrison West Virginia received
more than it was entitled to, proba-
bly, in the hope of capturing the State,
and now with no such motive actual
ing President Cleveland the patron
age accorded West Virginia will prob
ably be reduced to its just proportion
and no more. You see the President
likes rhe West Virginians mighty well
but he has some other friends in some
other States and West Virginia can't
expect too much.

Dearest brother we have laid thee
In the peaceful graves embrace.
But thy memory will be cherished
TIL we see thy heavenly lace.
Peaceful be thy silent slumber,
Peaceful In thy grave so low,
Thou no more Will join our number,
Thou no more our songs Will know.
Yet agaiu we hope 10 meet thee
When the day OF life is fled,
And in heaven with Joy TO greet thee,
Where no farewell tears are shed.
