THE closing hours of the late Con gress did not differ from those of it: predecessors, except that there are about ten times as many office seekers crowd, ing the corridors of the capitol as were ever there before, In 1889 it was thought that the army of office seekers which marched upon Washington was large, but it was only as regiment to a corps when compared with that now there. The excitement and turmoil in Congress was greater all last week, but there was little business of general in terest transacted, as the appropriation bills, which were in an unusually back ward condition, took up most of the time in both House and Senate. The hot fight which was expected over the Sherman bond amendment was avoided by the friends of the amendment agree ing not to press it; that beng regarded as the only way to prevent the failure of the sundry civil appropriation, as the silver men had announced their Inten- tion to fillibuster against it to the end of the session.

 "It's the greatest idea in the world, said a guest of St. Louis hotel, rub ping his glasses with fifty-dollar bill according to the Globe-Democrat.
 ''Now, can't see ten feet without my glasses, and glasses have tendency to become blurred, you know.
 Now, 1 have worn spectacles con- stantly for over twenty-five years, and have, in a small way, made study of them. A linen handkerchief does not clean them well. and a silk is always sure to leave thread sticking to the frames.
 Paper is no account, as it leaves specl1s on the glass. Cotton is sure to leave lot of lint behind it. Chamois is too thick, and kid don't do at all. I've tried them all, and know. The thing to use, my boy, is bank note; it cleans the glasses beautifully and leaves noth- ing behind it.
 ''Of course, it isn't necessary to use a fifty every time, but happened to have this one loose in my pocket and I'm eX- pecting a friend along in a minute and 1 wanted to make an impression. Yes, they say bills carry disease with them, but I ain't afraid much. I've never caught anything from them. You can use a one as well as fifty, but use a fifty if you can; there's more money in it !"

Prospect of Riding from Cape Horn to
 Cape Town by Continuous Rail.
 It adds something to the zest of life if one has a healthy and active fancy to reflect that there are people now living who may travel by continuous rail from Cape Horn to the Cape of Good Hope. The plan of ''pan-Amer- ican" railway to connect the South American systems. through Central America, with the systems of Mexico and the United States, Is already well advanced. There are, says the Review of Reviews, to be roads from the Cana dian Pacific away up to the Peace river and Mackenzie valleys, and it is not very hard to believe that these may ultimately be extended across the Rockies to the Ukon valley in Alaska, and continued finally to the narrow and shallow Behring straits, across which connection would be made with the Siberian road. Continuous rail travel from Siberia to COnstantinOple will soon have become an accomplished fact, and the link from COnstantinOple to Egypt may be expected quite conf- dently. At the present rate of develop ments in Africa the construction of a road from Egypt to the Cape ought to be realized within twenty-five years. The channel tunnel will, of course, have been built, and electricity or some still more powerful motive fOrce1will have superseded steam; so that the Cali fornians and Puget sound denizens would naturally go to London by fast Alaskan and Siberian express. If they chose they might return by steamship, making the passage in two or three days from the west coast of Ireland to Labrador or Halifax. In view of all that has been done in the past twenty five years such further development of travelling facilities is easily within the ran lrrn .nf Sahnr- rnraliatic.r,

Uncle Hiram.

In the comedy Uncle Hiram that is to be presented at the Opera House Mon day Mar. 13 railroad train 200 feet long crosses the stage m 10 seconds. It is great piece of stage mechanism, though not more wonderful than the saw-mill and steam boiler explosion in Act 2. A competent company, headed by Aaron H. Woodruff, and the sweet singer and dancer, Miss Troia Griswold, portray the various characters well. Uncle Hiram is strong American play of the present times, aud its scenes are laid in New York city and the hills of Vermont. The company carries all its own scenery, and IS one of the successes of the season.

Africa, Central America, Mexico and the West Indies, whether such port is infected or not. The inspection must be made within six hours Immidiately presiding the departure of the vessel, according to methods described. Should disinfection be declared to be necessary. it IS made compulsory upon the vessel owners to have it done under the dIrec- tion of the inspector. The consuls at ports of departure are required to have knowledge of the origin of the cargoes of vessels and to have them disipfecteG if necessary. During the prevalence of an epidemic, r3gs and similar articles are not to be shipped at all, nor within ha hoe of fcially declared to be free from the epidemic.

OPENING THE ALLEY.
A Bit of Local History of the Much
 Discussed Passage-Way.

The further progress of the colstruc- tion of the Breuer building seems likely to be arrested by the question of open ing the alley, south of the property. Ownership of the alley is claimed by W. c. Bashford of Prescott. He owns It by virture of a tax title and by having had a judgment against the insolvent firm of Lord and Williams, which had not been claimed for number of years.
 Mir. Breuer is understood to have offer ed MT. Bashford Sl50 for his claim to the alley, and MT. Bashford is said to have demanded 5000.
 The question of the legality of the act of the city in deeding Apr. 9, 1875. a public highway to Philip Drachman for consideration of S450 has been dis cussed of late. It is believed by a majority that the cIty had no right to give deed of the property to any private citizen. The deed nevertheless was passed and recorded, so in case of the city now reopening the alley there is sufficient ground for bringing a suit upon the part of MT. Bashford
 After the alley had passed through the hands of several owners to those of Lord and Williams 1t was freely used as place of storage by l.. Zeckendorf & O., Stevens, Hughes & Co. and others. It soon became of some value for this pur- pose and was claimed by MT. Bsshford under his judgment in order that he might have the benefit of rental for it's use.
 The alley is 1O5 feet long and IA and 2-10 feet wide. In securing an indem- nifty bond from Mir. Breuer the city seeks to provide sgaInst a possible suit from the present. claimant. A majority of the broader-minded and more liberal citizens have expressed the opinion that If the ci' y council of 17 years ago erred in making the deed, the presents city council should be willing to assume the very slight risk there is of suit. la the meantime Mir. Breuer is quite indignant.

A ChanreabIe Water NInrk.

Two Americans who were dining at tables in front of cafe in Paris, near the Seine, noticed high up on the front wall of a building a red mark, and underneath it this inscription: ''In- undation of 1875. High-water mark. s Come! come!" said one of the Ameri- cans to the restaurant keeper; lyon don't expect us to believe that the river ever rose as high as that?" ''Oh, no" said the proprietor, blandly; ''it only came up to here" He made a sort of scratch with his thumb nail down near the ground. But, you see, when the mark was down there the children rubbed it out so continually that we had to put it up there out of their reach"

JUDGE REILLY OBJECTS,
House Bill p Operates Only Against Cajolers, Coaxers. land Collusionists

The following communication from Judge Reilly has been received:
 To the Editor of the CITIZEN:
 have just read your editorial denun- ciations of H. B. No. 2. ir the CITIZEN of March and think I have reason to complain of your, to me, unreasoning strictures. You denounce the bill as 'bounty on blackmail' and assert that "the bill is reproduced elsewhere" but you do not reproduce it. But instead you reproduce the false assertions and sOphistries of the Prospector of March 6, with your editorial endorsement and approval.
 In reply to your denuncistions here assert, without fear of contradiction, that H. B. No. 22 is less susceptible of being used for "blackmail" or other un- worthy purpose than nine in every ten of the statutes, Federal and Territorial, now on the statute books; and if you, Mir. Editor, want laws made that cannot be made use of for "blackmail" or other bad purpOses you must appl.Snp

IT is currently reported that several Republican officials have rendered their resignations to the President with the following little string tied to it: "To take effect upon the appointment and qualification of my successor" Such class O. resignstions are mere bun combe. They are nets set to catch a little clap trap of public notoriety with out themselves being caught. If an official wishes to resign let him do so, there are no strings upon such action, and thousand men equally as well qualified as themselves stand ready to take their places, but let such resigna- tions be of an unqualified order. Let the President know that there is a vacancy and he will have no trouble Tn fl ing same.

ONE of the very few meritorious laws enacted by the 52d Congress is that pro- viding for the use of automatic car cou- piers by all interstate railroads, which was forced through the House and signed by the President last week. It is pro- bable that no bill signed by Gen. Har- ri on during his term gave him more pleasure than thus one, which he was so largely instrumental in bringing to the front, by persistent recommends tions in his annual messages to Con cress.
