dlsrespectiul remark about the baDy
whose birth had just been announced.
The Tammany Congressman walked
close up to the man and deliberately
spat in his face. The coward sneaked
Oft like tie cur that he is, and the Con-
gresham was asked why he did not
knock bin down. "Strike him, ~ lie
remarked sccrntully. II would not
dirty my hands with such as he.'
Within an hour the incident was re-
ported to the President, and since
then he is never to busy to see that
ammany Congressman when he calls
at the White House. The Tammany
Congressman has, however, asked for
nothing since the incident, for, as he
puts It, Il do not wish TO be rewarded
for having done what any good citi-
zen would lave done-resentea an in
suit to the family of the PRESIDENT
The House need not he idle after
the vote is taken on the bill for the re-
peal of the Federal election laws,
next week. even il the tardiness of the
Senate IN dlsposing of the silver ques-
tlon prevents the recess which many
Congressmen would like to take, par
t!cularly those from states in which
elections will be held this fall The
McCreary substitute for the Gearv
Chlrese law has been favorahly re.
ported to the House from the Foreign
Committee and can be taken up at any
time, and the Judiciary Committee
has reported the Oates bankruptcy
bltl to the House. 1t is probable that
the Chinese bill viii be given the pre-
ference.

talk among republicans about the

that we lad no provisions. The ex
cltement and the eXeriinn in giving
burial to the hundreds of dead people
had made us forgetful of our own ply

and at night We were completely pros
trated. The odor emanating from the
dead bodies, both of man and beast.
made the situation all the more un-
bealabie.
