The passage of private pension bills is not
progressing very rapidly this session. Friday
night is the evening set apart weekly for this
duty. Last Friday night of the gentlemen of
the House only ha.f hundred made their
appearance. Here was Mr.. Buckley Kilpore's
opportunity for a whack at the veteran. So he
raised the point of no quorum, and legislation
was blocked. Members with private pension
bills are making anxious inquiries whether
Kilgore intends to establish principle and
continue demanding quorum Friday nights:
there is seldom more than one member inter-
ested in BILL the combined forces of those
interested in bills of like nature will not con-
stitnte quorum, and other members arc not
inclined to sit through an evening session to
transact business in which they are not in
terested Mr. Kilgore says there will have to
be quorum TO pass pension bills 81 do not
believe in most Of these private bills ANYWAY
Most pensions which are deserved can be "a.
cured through the Pension Office"

The attendance at the Midwnter Exposition
at San Francisco continues to average between
5000 and 10000 per day. and everybody is cor
respondingly encouraged in the belief that this
fair will realize the most sanguine expectations
in regard to its financial success In proportion
to tue amount of money invested, the attend
ance thus far has greatly surpassed that ac-
corded the Columbian Exposition during the
first month of its existence, and at the same
ratio of increase which was noticeable at Chi

Success sometimes is a thing exasperating.
When man has worked hard for thing and
gets IT, but gets it in way he cannot conve-
niently make use of it. it is enough to cause
him to turn cynic. Mr. Luke constituent of
Representative Fithian. OF Illinois, has yearued
TO be Postmaster for some time past, but he
has particular preferences as to the town
wherein ne lives. Nashville, III. Imagine the
delightful situation in which Mr. Luke found
himself last week when he heard of his NOM
inatiOn By the Postoiice Department to be. by
peculiar mistake, Postmaster of Nashville,
Iowa. The Department did not find out the
mistake until Mr.. Luke had been confirmed as
Postmaster of the wrong town.

During these exciting days in the House,
when so much has depended upon the correct
ness of the rolI-calI. Tally Clerk Hosford has
had two volunteer assistants One Of them is
Mr.. Reed and the other is Mr.. Tracey. the New
York Democrat, who has been leading the
anti-silver fight As the clerk would begin to
call the roll these two gentlemen would seat
themselves at their desks, and throughout the
80 or 40 minutes that tho names were being
called, patiently check of the members who
answered. These gentlemen have not as vet
discovered any errors, except possibly the re-
cording of Mr.. Bryan's name the other day
after that gentleman had gone to Chicago but
they have learned great deal. They have
found out how difficult it is in the noise and
confusion to determine whether member has
voted or not, and that their tallies are not
always as correct as the one kept by the clerk.

important cases have been fixed for hearing at
such time as the new Justice should take his
place on the bench. These cases were finally
set for March 5. in the hope that a nomination
and confirmation might be made by that time.
The records of the Supreme Court show TINT
the accession of Justice White to the bench
leaves New York State without representa-
tive III the court for the first time since 1906,
the only exception since the court was estab-
lished. The exact succession from New York
is as follows: John Jay Chief Justice), 1889

Thompson, 1S23-1S43; Samuel Nelson, 1916
1872; Ward Hunt, 1S72-1SS2; Samuel Blatch-
ford, I6S2-lS93.
There is talk in Supreme Court circles al
ready regarding the judicial circuit to which
Senator White w!ll be assigned when he as
sumes his robe OF office. II is considered like
ly that, instead of taking the Northern circuit
which was held By the late Justice BIatchford,
