An Able Boston Woman.

There is an exceedingly able woman IN
Boston who can report speech delivered
rapidly in German, she first translating
the speech into English and then recording
it in stenographic characters. such celer-
ity of thought is only approached by the
tradition respecting Kossuth, who is said
to have thought in Hungarian, translated
into Latin and retranslated and uttered at
q rapid rate the choicest English, born of
study of the Bible and Shakespeare

THE HOUSEHOLD.
No Baby In the House.

No baby in the house, know
IT'S far too nice and clean;
No tops by careless fingers thrown
Upon the floor are seen;
No finger marks are on the panes,
No scratches on the chairs;
No wooden men set up In rows
Or marshaled off in pairs;
No little stockings to be darned,
All ragged at the toes;
No piles of mending to be done,
Made up of baby clothes;
No little troubles to be soothed,
No little hands to fold
No grimy fingers to be washed,
No stories to be told;
No tender kisses to be given.
No nicknames-Love and Mouse;
No merry frolic after tea.
No baby in the house.

Perjured Senators.
Chlcago Record.


 Seventy-oEe of the eighty-four mem- bers of the United States senate have answered 'No' to all the questions in the catechism prepared by the scandal committee and positively denied that they or any of the members of their families or their clerks or employees had been speculating in sugar stock. Senator Squire of Washington admit ted that his brother-in-law had been dallying with the market, but insisted that he had given him no information. Senator Ransom disclosed the fact that his son had been buying on SlO margin in a bucket shop. Senator Me Pherson explained that he had noth- ing more to say, having some days be- fore related how his servant girl had involved him in sugar speculation with Sl .500 profit, and Senator Quay frank ly stated that he had bought and sold up to the very day the vote was taken, when he disposed of all his holdings at a loss lest it might influence his vote, as I suggested he would. MT. Quay offered to furnish the committee a statement showing his purchases and sales. While he will be criticised and condemned pretty generally and se- yerely, Senator Quay is entitled to the respect and the confidence of the public for his candor, much more so than some of his associates, who said mo" with a mental reservation.
 While it can scarcely be imagined that man of the dignity of senator of the United States would commit perjury it is unQuestionably a fact that the denials made by some of those who were examined on Saturday caus- ed shudder to creep up the spines of some of their friends who happened to know of their speculative transactions and of the profits they or the mem- bers of their families have made by the rise of sugar stock. 1t may be that these senators misunderstood the questions or that their replies failed to reach the ears of the steno- grapher, or perhaps their minds were wandering; but, however it be, the testimony that is to be reported 0y the scandal committee to the senate will contain a good deal that is not true.
 There are at least four ladies, the wives of senators, who have boasted in the presence of witnesses of having made profits of from s2,OO0 to 5000 within the last thirty days in sugar speculations. Perhaps their husbands are not aware of the fact-at least they so testified on Saturday. There are at least three senators whose sons and secretaries have been hanging over the tape for weeks, and all their acquaintances have known that they were buring and selling sugar stock but their fathers do not seem to have been aware of the fact, for they so de- clared under oath on Saturday. won- der what Secretary Carlisle would say if the committee should ask him to answer the questions in it's catechism.
