IN THE HOTEL CORRIDORS.
He was paralyzed.
He had just arrived in Washington, and,
being an EnglishmAn. the tirst place he sought
WAS the White House. Also because be was an
Englshman and because the aristocrAtc blue
eorpuseles from an uninterrupted long line ot
ancestors aowed through his veins he had come
on the ROYAL Blue" because the color OF the
cars Of the Eyer harmonlzed with his blood
and his necktie.
He stood ~ the bottom % the broad stair
case which leads up to the hidden regions
where the chief executive of the great Amer
can republic grows weary over tile applications
/ for Office. The trousers OF his hight tweed suit
were rolled up and his monocle Was held tena-
ciously IN the socket Of hrs lef; eve. His mouth
was open and he stood there achast
At the top OF the staircase was n fair eSAmpls
OF the American small boy. Tho lads round
face was rosy from his exercise and his stout
httle limbs were encased IN knickerbockers-
jumping upon the banisters, the small bow
with arms ard feet outstrctchud, slid rapidiy
I TO the bottom with every evidence OF delight
depicted upon his laughing features. Down he
came like shot from big gun. tumbling OF
on the floor with laugh. Then upstairs be
trotted again and repeated the operation, and
finally US a winder slid down the smoothly car
bottom
The Englishman took OF his monoc!e. rubbed

trict, said Congressman Jason L. Brown, who
represents the third congressional district az
Indiana. 10 TIE STAR representative at the
Riggs this morning. during which l have
visited every county seat therein.
i ma that there Is a luch better feeling
among the democrats there concerning Mr..
Ilevelands administration than during his
previous one. They think the administration
is acting more rapidly in oustirg the republi-
cans than before. So far as the appoip,men,.
thus far made for Indiana have gone every BODY
l. much satisfied and pleased with them
Indiana Is a tariff reform state There is.
strong feeling among my people too tha, the
sherman acts should be repealed. feel that
way, too. Tue third party has disaupearce.
ihe democrats are united. even more so than
prior TO election. We think that this na,nip-
istration has beea very rand in mssi,r
changes, and that is what We want And thus
far have heard no dissatisfaction expressed at
any OF lite acts. The people OF Indiana thinS
! That Mr.. Cleveland is the manager Of his own
administration, and that it WILL be successful
one.
While most Englishmen are gold bugs Jo-
seph Jackman. a large steel manufacturer OF
Sheffield. England. who is AZ present nj the Eb-
bitt, Is an exception TO the rule. In discussing
this question with THE STAR representative hs
said:
Few people in England understand th,.
question They have nos read M thoroughly
on the subject and Jump at conclusions which
are not based upoa AUTHORITATIVE data The
common idea in England Is that we will be in
undated with silver and thai gold will vanish
on a bimetallic basis. They think that mas
much as America and Mexico are the two great
suver-producing countries that they will be tho
only ones benefited by free coinage. Strange
70 say, rnd that there is a similar feeling in
tins country regarding Europe, that IL tho.
Americans adopt free coinage Europe will ges !.
al the advantage.
My individual opinion is that Il all the mint,
OF the great nations were open 60 free coinage
] that II would be as great a benefit ma was III.
discovery of the gold mines in Australia and
California. The Gladstone government will do
nothing 10 help the silver question. II Lord
Salisbury government ever comes into power
again II VIII take the question up. The advo-
Gates OF bimetall!sm are making headway in
England. 1t VIII be 4 political question and

"You may call the average South or Central
American of the higher classes doctor with a.
much certainty Of making the title At as col
onel' to kentuckian.' said Amos f. Ander-
son of Boston at the Ebbitt this morning
Americans have undoubtedly noticed that
most of the prominent men who have visited
here voluntarily or in exile have the prefix
DE-. before their names. Also, that many OF
the presidents OF these republics apparently
physicians. for instance DIR. Nunez, president
Of Colombia But they are not all physicians.
Lawyers in these countries graduate with the
degree which entities this prefix and II our own
Chauncey Depew should visit there he would be
considered lawyer. Many go through college
just Cor this honor, having intention to
practice law medicine
The standard OF education is higher than We
suppose and the collegiate courses much more
rigorous. In theology the student spends four
years at college, medicine five wears and law
seven years. or double the time required here
TO graduate. Again. while physician may pass
an examination TO practice in a department or
district of republic. he must pass a higher
examination TO practice in the entire country.
Practitioners coming from this or other coun-
tries must also pass examination before be-
ing admitted TO practice, and interstate or ;or-
eign diplomas are not recognized a here"
