port, to Washington for the purpose of

litical affairs met with no encourage
ment. Late in the afternoon Judge GreSll-
am sent for District Attorney MilchriSt,
and, armed with many legal docu-
ents, this official entered the judges
room and remained in close converSa-
ton about local matters for long time.
The Judges chamber was perhaps the
mort comfortable in the building today.
A bright coal fire $ was burning in the
crate, near which, in an easy chair, the
Judge was seated. In answer to query
put touching upon the report that he
had accepted place in the Cleveland
cabinet as secretary of state, the judge
replied:
Il am very sorry, but I can't talk to
you IN regard to the subject. l cannot
say anything OH the subject. can
neither deny nor affirm"
when will you break the silence?"
II can't tell; perhaps never" And
the interview ended
Around the government building there
was a good deal OF speculation as to the
accuracy of the report. Judging from
appearances, said one old court official,
lit looks very much as if it were true.
The Judge has left his seat in the court
Of appeals bench to work on decisions
in his chambers, and this looks as if he
wanted to clean matters up. It's I'M
usual, to say the least. for judge to be
so anxious to get rid of the cases at this
season."
Don Is Evasive.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 6.-Great interest
was manifested here today in rumor
which came from New York that Judge
Gresham was TO be secretary of state
under President Cleveland. Don Dick
inson, when asked about the rumor, re-
piled:
You will have to ask MI Cleveland
about that. 1t is his business, and not
mine. But feel sure of one thug. and
that is if Judge Gresham should so into
the cabinet, he would make strong
minister, and help to give the
people confidence in the admins
tration. l know Judge Gresham
very well, and l look upon him as being
now as good Democrat as there is in
the country If Mr.. Cleveland has sue
ceeded In securing Judge Gresham to
be his secretary of state, it is fortu-
nate thing for the party and the coun-
try. But you will have to see MI. CleYe-
land as to the truth of the rumor."
Mr.. Dickinson declined to discuss the
matter further, and refused to say
whether or not he mad made a secret
visit to Chicago within the last week.

1t has been said that all men are

Story Tellers' club of the Laclede to
"do his turn" Il am half inclined to
believe the saying true.
81 was in the British army when a
young man and was stationed for some
time in India. Our colonel, who had
won his spurs in the Crimea, became
involved in a difficulty with a fellow
officer who was well nigh damned in
fair wife, and a duel was the re-
suit.
The colonel, being the challenged
party, selected pistols as the weapons
and elected that the affair should occur
in dark room. We secured a room
twenty feet square, closed every crew
ice that would admit light, placed our
men in corners diagonany opposite and
withdrew.
Zach man was provided with three
charges and when these were exhaust
ed we rushed in to gather up the mu-
tilated remains. Each man stood
erect and soldier-like in his corner un-
touched, but directly behind the
aggrieved husband were the three bull
let-holes made by the colonel's pistol.
g How is this? said grizzled old
major Had you been standing here
when these shots were fired you would
have been killed. The culprit was
compelled TO admit that he had Drop

The Opal.

There are three varieties of this ia
nous gem. Ranking first comes the
Oriental; as second in value, the fire;
and, lastly, the common opal. The
affection for this precious treasure, as
expressed by the ancients, can hardly
be believed. Nonnius Roman Sem
ator, absolutely preferred exile to
parting with brilliant opal of the
| size of filbert, which was earnestly
coveted by Marc Antony. An opal
ranking as third among the finest in
the world is described as having three
longitudinal bands of the harlequin
kind, from the .uppermost of which
rose perpendicularly the most resplen-
dent flames. 1t measured nine inches
by six.
In the last century a very round and
brilliant opal was the property of the
amateur Fleurv. Another, said TO be
fascinatingly vivid. was owned bv a

RELIED ON HIS MEMORY.
A London Business Man who Kept in
Mind Many Thousands of Pictures.

A few years ago the London Star
contained an interview with manager
of Ludgate Hill agency for the dis
tribution all over the world of electro
types of pictures which had appeared in
any book, paper or magazine and are
wanted for republication, says Kate
Fields Washington. In turning over
some German magazines, the report
er's eye rested on particular picture
and he asked the manager if he knew
where it came from? ayes, that APP
peared in the Illustrated London NeWS'
Christmas number for 1885" was the
reply, without moments hesitation,
and taking down the volume from the
shelves, the manager turned up the
identical picture. The rapidity with
which the newspaper mans inquiry
for the original cut was satisfied led
him to ask if the employees of the con-
Germ trusted much to memory to help
them out in their work. The manager
replied that they relied on their men,
ory almost entirely. Said he:
"The sort of inquiry we have is this:
A man is writing story for bows, with
the scene laid in South America, say,
and he wants picture of South
American forest, of river with tropi-
cal scenery, an Indian in canoe, or
an alligator. Similarly the publishers
of children's books constantly apply to
US for appropriate pictures. In an
enormous number of cases | can re-
member at once wnere the suitable
cuts are to be found, they are looked
out and bundle of rough proofs are
sent out for selection. Altogether |
have within my reach in London and
other parts of the world some 5000, 900
woOdcuts, from which electros can be
made when | want them. OF these
10000 believe l could find 800, 900
by the aid of my memory alone. OF
course this figure sounds incredible,
but you must remember that it is nv
business and that | am ALWAYS at it.
The mind soon gets trained to run like
lightning, if you give it groove to
run in, and the proof of it is that /
should be quite useless at the reverse
process. That is to say, if YOU showed
me any cut that had appeared in any
one of the long row of volumes of the
illustrated London Ae1OS, | could tell
you in which volume it was, and ap-
proximately on which page; but if you
took down volume and asked me to
describe the cuts it contained | couldn't
even start"
