The new year brings with IL many
hopes and fears, JOY and regret-hopes
and fears for the future, Joy and regret
for the past. A great French philoso-
pher says that after forty we should be
very grateful IL we are not absolutely
and constantly unhappy. This ought to
buoy up those who are only unhappy
every four years or every alternate

HIS WASHINGTON HOME.
Attorney General OIney Leases the House
Built by Ex-senator Edmunds.

Attorney General OIney Leases the House
Built by Ex-senator Edmunds.
Every old house in Washington city is
historic. and some of the new ones are
fast becoming so. Among these is the
handsome residence erected by Senator
Edmunds. with all the homelilze conven-
fences for a scholar and very home loving
man and soon to be occupied by Attor-
ney General Olney. This house was
built by Mr. Edmunds according to de
signs Of his own and occupied by him
during the latter part Of his term as
senator. On resigning he leased it to
Senator Washburn Of Minnesota, who
has sublet it to the attorney general, and
the last named will take possession next
October on his return from Falmouth
Mass, where his family is sojourning
for the summer.
Being after the designs Of Senator Ed
munds. Of course the house has some
odd features. chief among them the H.
brary and dog stairway. The senator
almost lived in LIS library. There it was
his delight to rest and lounge and read
at haphazard just as the notion took
him-anything from the trashiest novel
Of the hectic French school to the driest
disquisitious OF Descartes or the yolu-
minous pages Of Gibbon.

How an Alligator Furnished Motive Power
For Il Scow.


For "a Scow.
Helen Gran berry. whose post0flice address
is on-on-rhe-IIudson, wl..as Tor the
New York Tribune story so remarkable
that If any one else had told it one woUl6
be justified in downright unbelief SIZE
says that her party in Florida last winter
were crossing bayou in q fiat bottomed
boat when they ran over what they took
to be log, but found to- be huge alliga-
tor. All were paralyZed with fear but one,
and he promptly began driving big nails
through the bottom of the boat
You'll have TO help; we must be quick
Take off your shoes and use the heels as
hammers!" he cried, and realizing the ne
cessity for blind obedience we began driv
ing nails too His intention dawned on the
girls by the time it had become a finished
action. and they complimented him on his
idea of pinning the alligator to the boat
with nails But the prisoner was not
pleased and began thrashing the water
violently. Again the clever chap came to
the rescue.
Does either of you girls wear black
stockings?" said he. One Of them did.
''Thel sit up in the end of the boat and
dangle your feet in the water. No, don't
put your shoes on! Now swing your feet
to the RICH - The young woman fol
lowed his directions, and, wonderful to re-
late, the boat slowly moved to the right.
Oars were useless. The alligator bore the
boat home on his back.
The explanation is simple The alligator
thought the black stockings were his IA
vorite dainties- Niger legs He moved
toward them. and so moved the boat and
moved them on just as the horse in the
mill Of the old story followed the bag Of
oats around as it kept just beyond his nose.

ATTORNEY GENERAL oLNEY's NEW HOME.

ATTORNEY GENERAL OINEY'S NEW HOME.
His favorite companion in idle hours
was a big st. Bernard dog, and to make
the house perfectly convenient for him
meaning the dog-to come in after an
evening stroll the senator had wind
ing wooden staircase built leading from
the back garden to the library This
was open till the latest dog hours, and
the intelligent animal was trained to go
and come by that way and incidentally
to see that no undesirable persons took
advantage of his special privileges. This
dogway was long a subject Of amuse-
ment and gossip among the neighbors
The house is on Massachusetts avenue,
between Twenty-frst and Twenty-sec-
ond streets, within easy walk Of the de
partment of justice, and yet far enough
out to be quite rural as to surroundings.
Mr. Olney enjoys all kinds Of athletic
sports, but his principal recreation is
walking. A s. or 10 mile tramp into the
country on Sundays is a common thing
with him, and after leaving his office on
weekdays he generally takes long walk
For all this his new residence is conven-
lent. For society it is equally convenient.
Mrs. Olney's evenings will be prominent
social affairs in Washington next wiz ter
