Mrs. Croker in " ashington.


While most attention has been paid the
men who have been IN Washington it has
not been because they were the only people
worth talking about. There have been
many clever and well-known women In the
city from all over the country.
Probably about none have questions been
asked more frequently than about the wife
of Richard Croker. Mrs Croker is a tall
robust woman Of fine presence, and she is
bright. She had her first real view Of the
sights OF Washington, and Mr.. Croker
showed them all TO her. He took her to the
House OF Representatives, ard Mrs. Croker's
views on the deliberations Of that body are
characteristic. she objected to the style of
the members. "Why, they all were read-
ing papers or writing. Did they know
what was being done! The speaker there
Mr.. Crisp, must be wonderful to know what
they are saying. He pounds aud pounds,
but it didn't make them pay attention.
That's great way to do business. If were
speaker and ran that House, I'd see that
they paid attention. 1t isn't respectful
Mr.. Croker explained that the whole
thing was arranged beforehand and the
speaker knew Just what was coming, but
Mrs. Croker would not yield her point,
and If everything was arranged beforehand
she thought that altogether congress was
a very useless body. Mrs Croker tells
some funny stories of her experiences with
people, who have heard OF Tammany tigers.
One day a countryman came to the
Cookers Richfield Springs home to do some
odd jobs. Mrs. Croker noticed him peer
ing around the floor, and about the time
she began to grow suspicious Of the man he
asked:
Where are the tigersG"
Tigers; what tigersN
"Why, the folks around here say you
kept tigers air on the floor"
Mre. Croker had to smile, but earnestly
told him the tigers were out at pasture. The
man looked relieved. The fact of it is
tlger-sktn rugs are not popular In the
Croker mansions. Among all the gorgeously
Jeweled women at the ball, Mrs. Croker
was model of simplicity in a gown with
out frill or ruffie anywhere about it, and
only one ornament OF diamonds in her hair
and one at her throat MIRA Croker has
diamonds enough to profusely decorate two
women, but the Tammany leader objects to
her wearing many jewels, aud Mrs. Croker
rather admires Mr.. Croker's Judgment.

Lake Shore Men Say They Knew
Nothing of the Courts Order.

lake Shore Men Say They Knew
Nothing of the Courts Order.
TOLEDO, O., March 23.-The Ann Arbor
trouble has resolved itself into purely a
lake Shore matter, at least so far as the
officials are concerned, for none Of the Ann
Arbor officers have appeared in court.
This morning the Lake Shore engineers
Involved in the case were on the stand as
witnesses for the defense. It was the in.
,artion Of their attorneys to show that
nan thew refused to handle Ann Arbor
ears they were not Lake Shore employees.
having previously resigned.
They ell testify to the same thing-that
they knew nothing of the courts order and
we're not aware that there were any Ann
Arbor cars in the train they were asked to
haul. This is one point on which their at
torneys will base their argument. The
Lake Shore attorneys are trying TO make
the men tell why they quit work. The men
show remarkable ability as non-committal
Witnesses.
Engineer James Lennon was the first wit
ness this morning. He told nothing that he
did not want to, as the following dialogue
will show:
after you left your train and quit, as
YOU say, did not some one IN authority ask
you t. take out 134 later %
Yes"
"What did you say :"
al said, All right. I'll be up.'n
"Now. didn't that mean that you would
be on hand to take the train and that you
we're still employed and acting under the
sompanyp
"Non

"Up whereof

NOW what did you meanP'
Nothing"
"What did he think you meantFn
He thought what he wanted to. left It
opeo.o
The attorney gave it up and changed bis
tactics.
Several persons applauded when witnesses
stated that they would not become scabs.
John Conley, one of the men who refused to
uauulo Anu ArDOr LEelRnb ana was arrested,
was called. The defense intended to show
by his testimony that he was not brother
hood man, that he quit on his own respon-
sibility and that the brotherhood had MOTH
ing to do with his actions and might have
had nothing to do with the actions Of the
other men.
Why did you quitF' asked Mr.. Southland
for the defense.

sickness, what would you have done?"
I'D probably have been sick, too"

engineers was announced, and court adj

bore such strange and double meaning
to her.
Faithful to the pledge given Fitz-

The prison pen was still as death, the
only sound the dull beat of feet before
'the guard-house door, the more hollow
tramp of the stockade sentry almost
overhead. For what seemed many
hours, the waiting men heard this scnti-
mel tramp almost to their window, his

Aad Yet There as No O.cas 81. N fer
hi. Anger.
The great Callaghan is apparently mad
and with good reason too, for he knows
that his throne is lettering and the ground
is slipping from under it. He thinks. and
thinks truly, that the LIGHT is in a great
measure responsible for this downfall and
vents his spleen upon it and employees.
Anger makes men not only mad but
foolish, and an amusing instance of this
occurred last night. A LIGHT man had
a message for Joe Cooley and went TO de-
liver it. Cooley was busy, as usual. and
SO he tore the message from his note book,
intending to leave it and go on his
way. Just then a voice said: We'll,
if you want to hear what I've
got to say come here: dou'L speak on the
outside" The LIGHT man krew the voice
and Turning round saw the county Judge,
who made the remark talking TO som
friends whom he had not previously on
served. ..N
The county judge cannot know re-
porter or must think that the reporters
do not know him il he fances that one
would take out his note book and stand
openly on the public sidewalk TO record
surreDtltiOnsly, any remarks that the
county judge may drop unawareS. A
guilty conscience needs no anwSer and
the trickSJerS Is ever suspicious even of
his own friends.
