IFrom Kate Fields Washington.


 A good story is told of a prominent Federal official' who was in office dur ing the first Cleveland administration, and his reception of a woman who en. deavored to levy biackmail upon him, This woman came into his office one day. and after tearfully reeiting her tale of woe and wrong to him and an amused onlooker-who had tried inef- fectually to leave the room and let the couple attend to their own affalrs-she demanded immediately n check for siO0. But I cannot give you that amount. I haven't got it," said the official.
 Well. then. I'll tell all about our dealings. and you won't show up very we'll" said the woman threateningly.. "oh, don't think you can make any body believe such n tale as you would tell against me-" came the imperturbed reply.
 ''oh, can't, can't I?" sneered tho wo- man. Well. just need that sl0O, and you've got to give 1t to me or I'll let out the whole business. Now, are you ready to pony up?"
 The official pondered a moment.
 'The case would look pretty black against me, wouldn't it?" he said re- fectively.
 Yes, I'll see to that" was the wo- mans more threatening answer
 Well" said the official, after a few moments thought, and with suspic- ious twinkle in his eye, "I guess I see a way out of the difficulty. You know my wife holds the purse strings of the family. Now, you just go to her and tell her the whole story, and cry about 1t, and she might give you the amount you want. Good day." and he bowed his obnoxious caller out of the office, while she was too dumbfounded to pro- test.
 She never bothered him again, ap- parently admiring his nerve.
