The Grip.
Out last night,
Lots of fun,
Bed all right,
Half past one;
Nine o'clock,
Feel so sick;
Fetch the doe,
Hurry quick!
Aching bones,
Head'll split,
Horrid groans,
Never quit;
Hardly speak,
Try again,
Feel so weak,
Darling pain,
Spinal cord;
Gives a twitch,
Oh, good Lord,
What a stitch.
Flat in bed,
Gone this trip,
Soon be dead,
Got the grip.

WASHINGTON, Feb. Ex-senator German
said this afternoon that he had issued a
call FOR democratic caucus of the senate
TO convene Monday morning. II cannot
be ascertained whether the caucus will
have other subjects than the tariff under
consideration and it is even asserted that
the tariff will not be considered at all. 4
statement which is supported 10 some eX.
tent By the fact that the finance commit
tee is called to meet at the same hour as
the caucus will convene, for the purpose
of considering the iarllr bill. There is no
doubt. however, that the original purpose
OF requesting the issuance Of tho call was
that of comparing notes and trying to
reconcile differences on the subject Of the
tariff.

LONDON, Feb. 23,-The case OF Mrs.
John B,dlulph Martin, formerly Victoria
woodruff, against tine trustees of the
British museum, was heard in h.ga court
justice, before Baron Pollock to-day. Mrs.
Martin some time ago obtained All order
from the courts directing the trustees OF
the museum to diyugc the names Of the
donors 10 the museum Of two books relat-
Ing 10 the Beecher- Elton trial. Mrs.
Martin, in her petition, declares that the
first OF these books imputed that she, as
Victoria woodruff, Ind published l!be,ous
aud obsccue literature. The second book
purported 10 contain statements made
during the Beccher-Tilton litigation,
which. she claimed. reflected on tho
plaintiff. He saId the books contained
Imaginary interviews with Woodruff,
IN WHICH she was quoted as stating
that Tllton had been her lover;
that she had lived with HIM
for three months, and he called
her "queen of prostitutes" Woodruff
was charged In these interviews with
blackmailing Rev. Henry Ward BeecLer,
and the counsel asserted the interviews
made similar charge against Woodhulfs
sister. Sir Richard read extracts from
the works Of Woodhull, advocating purity
between the sexes. Uniuckiiy, the coun-
sci continued. the man whom Woodruff
lef; in control Of the newspaper in New
York, inserted. unknown TO her. some dis
graceful articles. SIR Richard said that
Woodhull, until she met Martin, had
lived life OF struggle and suffering.
Mrs. Martin took the stand and said the
interview published IN the Chicago paper
in 1872 and copied into the book donated
TO the museum, and VIII ch was one OF
those which she complained against,
| had never occurred. The state
ments made IN the interview
were false. When asked whether 'she
had ever been guilty Of immortality, Mrs.
| Martin said that from lS1O 10 1851 she was
daily before the American public and no
charge had ever beea made against her
| character. SIR Charles Russell, attorney
general. who appeared for The trustees OF

stockbroker and actress in San Frauclsco.

resulted in acquittal, the government
being forced 10 abandon the prosecution
as result OF public opinion. When
questioned regarding Rev. Henry Ward
Beecher, Mrs. Martin said If the Beecher.

she must have time TO prepare her case.
After considerable testimony had been
taken, the case was adjourned.

TO CHANGE THE RULES.
A Caucus OF House Democrats Called for
N,N' Week

NJ week
WASHINGTON, Feb. 25.-Holman Of the
democratic caucus of the house will call a
caucus at an early date TO consider a
change in the house rules, by which MEM
bers may be compelled TO vote 10 make a
quorum. The call is in response 10 n
written request signed by l0i democratic
members. The request Is the direct re-
suit OF the uproar!ous demonstration in
the house yesterday. There was q rush TO
get on the paper. II contains the names
of the leading democrats. The name OF
Bland was not on the call, for while he is
severe in deprecating the disorder OF yes
terday. he says public opinion should re-
buke those responsible for II, and that q
change OF rules Is not desirable. New
Workers are also an exception. They are
not anxious to strengthen the rules and
thus increase the chance of the passage
of a bill such as the one pending. With
these exceptions the call represents all
shades Of opinion in the house, anti.silver
men as well as silver men.
The call is careful 10 avoid committee
members to any specific plan for chang
ing rules. Most of these signed are ready
to go to the extent OF counting quorum,
the only question among them is how a
quorum can be counted without subject
ing the majority TO the charge of adopting
what has been termed Reed rules"
