A Hearted Old Lady Makes a
Peculiar Request.

Peculiar Request.
An old German lady living on
Bonham street, called at Alamo
police station early yesterday
morning, and tearfully asked the
officer in charge, Jacobo Coy, to
come with her to the house of a
neighbor, and release an old cat
and some kittens which had been
locked up in the house by their
mistress, who had gone away for
the day and had left them to
starve. She wanted the officer to
open window and let the felines
out. The officer saw another lady
living somewhat nearer to the
house and learned that the ami
mails had been left a pan of milk
on the floor, and were all right and
he made no attempt to interfere,

The Pythian parade viii take place on

These two features are undertaken without
expense to the general committee, although
they viii constitute Washington's principal

The Pythian hosts will march up and down
our streets and drill in our parks. to the end

GONzAGA FAIR is ENDED
Magnificent Sum of $4,000 Has Been
Cleared.
FINAL SCENES OF MERRINENT
Hundreds Went to Get Their Last Taste Of
the Pleasures Provided-M Money to Be Spent
for New College Building-Thoss Who
Received Handsome Prizes.

Gongaza College Fair terminated last night
in s>scene Of magnifeenee and beauty. and it
seemed as if every one in the city had taken
advantage of the delightful night to pay
tribute to the excellence and popularity Of the
undertaking.
The little japanese girls fitting here and
there, the bright uniforms of the HyattsyilIe
Drum Corps, who attended in body, the
pretty costumes of the young ladies, upon a
black ground of vari-eolored booths, with Chi
nese lanterns throwing a softening glow over
all, presented sight that will long dwell in
the memory of every benolder.
The sales at the various booths were some
thing wonderful to behold. and the most
astonishing prices were asked and given,
offered and taken, and nearly everything
from the proverbial pin TO an elephant were
at the purchasers disposition.
The dancing pavilion, under the auspices
OF the Young Mems Catholic Club, was a
bright and constant scene of moving grace
and beauty, and the Midway Plaisance. -
under the management OF the sun
day school children, was an en-
of the alumnae booth again played hostesses
to the Georgetown Cycle Club, and great was
the havoc on the ice cream and lemonade.
! The bowling alley also was the scene of much
enthusiasm for the two champion bowlsrs,
! Mr.. Charles p. Althoff and Mr. John Trapp.
were playing of tie for first place, each
with a score OF 800 out of possible 800.
Finally when it became known that nearly
$4,000 had been cleared during the existence
OF tine fair. eyeryone's cup was full, and yis-
ions arose in each eye of that fine new Cor
zaga College which is to be built, and TO the
building fund of which the 1000 are to be
added.
At 10 o'clock a call from the buglers caused
rush toward the pavilion, where Mr.. T. A.
W. Van Reuth, president OF the Young Mems
Catholic Club, announced that a list Of the
prizes had been made out and were as fol-
lows: The four gold watches were drawn by
Mrs. O. NJ. Hope, No. 116 G. street north
west; Mrs. Dove, No s12 First street north

REV. Mr.. TABOR'S TROUBLES.
His Wife Is Said to Have Made Up Her
Mind Not TO Return to
Him

Rev. Church Tabor, pastor of the Methodist
Episcopal Churches at Langdon and Brook
land, near Washington, an account Of whose
peculiar domestic troubles was published ex-
clusively in TIE TINES of Tuesday, still re-
mains in the parsonage at Langdon, hisresig-
nation as pastor being still in abeyance
Mr. Tabor came to the city yesterday and
called at the house No. 1920 II street north
west where bis wife and her mother are
stopping, but did not see Mrs. Tabor as she
was absent from home at the time.
Mr.. Tabor brought with him a considerable
quantity of carpet, which he left for the wife.
but this WILL it is understood, be sent back
to-day by Mrs. Tabor. Acting under the
advice of her relatives and few female
friends, Mrs. Tabor. who is Mr.. Tabor's
second wife, will accept of nothing that was
the property of the first Mrs. Tabor.
Mrs. Tabor is so averse 10 seeing a news
paper man that the most persistent efforts to
have talk with her have proved unayailing
but a lady who is an intimate friend stated
that Mrs. Tabor will never live with Mr. Tabor
again.
The lady asovintimated that Mrs. Tabor
was induced by Rev. DR.. L. B. Wilson to sep
arate from her husband. and this was another
reason for her adopting this course.
Friends Of Mr.. Tabor say that one of the
principal causes of the separation was that
there was little too much mothAr-in-law at
Mr.. Tabor's. house. That lady is said to have
the income of an estate valued at about
S5O.000. which was considerably more than
was the salary OF Mr. Tabor, and it was, it is
said, the frequent habit OF the mother-ln-
law TO advert to this fact
1t is understood that Mr.. Tabor has been
rendered a very lucrative position with one
OF the largest publishing houses in the
country. He would, 1t is thought, have
accepted the place some time ago but for his
willingness to live in this vicinity on account
Of his wife and his love for the work of the
active ministry. He is a graduate of the
University of Vermont, at Montpelier, while
Mrs. TaDor is also a graduate of the Mont
pelier Seminary for Young Ladies.

YEsTRRDAY's PENNSYLVANIA EDITION
OF TIE CONGRESSIONAL RECORD.

The Congressional Record Of yesterday
printed ninety-six pages OF the tariff speech
OF Senator Quay. Of Pennsylvania. and seven
pages Of postical campaign effusions, which
had been edited and arranged by Represen-
tative Brosius, Of the same State. As mat
ter Of course the quantity Of the staid and
statesmanlike journal was somewhat more
numerous than usual, but the quality OF the
mental fodder spread temptiEgly out over
its pages gladdened the weary way Of the
constant subscriber as he wheeled his copy
home in a borrowed wheelbsrrow.
The joyful day when the woolen mill al
Squeehawken-On-the-Su had its
betting repaired would be lost TO the records
Of the nation had not Senator Quay discov-
cred the lost statistical lRmblet and chased
it into the folds Of the Record. together with
Dinety-and-nine other little eve factlets. As
to Mr.. Rrosius, he has turned on new poetic
dawn Of thirty-two-candie-pQw dimensions.
Time was when the world was satisfied with
'CUrfew shall not ring tonight" but Mr..
Brosius has given US other and higher
standards, and the fellows whose eyes turn to
heaven in fine frenzy rolling will have to pat
tern after the majestic swing and stately
meter Of those Teutonic stanzas beginning:
Town Ave. A we marched and cheered,
Vas -four years more for KroveT,"
Der prass psnd played hip, hip, hurrah,
Wen turn dis country ober
Il is hard to turn from the historic and
poetic review OF yesterdays Pennsylvania edi-
tion of the Congressional Record and dwell. in
e few lines Of type on the utilitarian possibili-
ties involved. Has il occurred to Messrs QUAY
and Brosius that they might food the Key
stone State with this excellent campaign ma
terial contained in the Record at the nominal
cost Of employing clerk 10 impress numerous
square penalty envelopes with franking
stamp? OF course not. Such minor considera-
lions never entered their thoughts, and il
could only have been by the rarest chance
that Mr.. Quny's speech, commenced June l6,
and Mr. Brosius' speech, Of August 13, occu-
pied the same binding berth.
One more cold monetary remark on the
episode. TIE TnEEs has it from reliable
sources that the paper factories and printing
ink works Of the country don't care what
tariff is put on. or taken of their product SO
long as the Senate grants the Hon. Matthew
Quay leave to print his observations when
the Senate had under consideration the bill
q. r. 1864 to reduce taxation, TO provide
revenue for the government, and for other
purposes.

WARNING TO BOTH.

When THE TINES. through its news col
umns. first called attention to the charges
made against Warrant Clerk Washburn. ofthe
police court, that gentleman Indignantly
denied them and vehemently pronounced them
false. Mr.. Washburn even went so far as 70
claim that he wanted to be investigated and
would welcome any inquiry into his official
acts.
Mr.. washburn has bseE investigated. He
may not feel rs well-pleased with himself as
he did before Judge Miller made the inquiry,
but Il has undoubtedly taught him salutary
lesson. 1t has made Mr. Washburn under
stand that he has certain duties TO perform.
and that Judge Miller intends 10 demand their
proper performance. and, moreover, that
while the warrant clerk Of the police court
may be very big man in his own opinion,
be is stu required to keep within certain
bounds.
In this connection it is proper to call atten-
tion TO another official OF the court, who,
ike his friend and fellow laborer, has man
aged to appear before the public in an unfor-
tunste light since the police scandals first
became public property. We refer to Special
Assistant District Attorney Pugh. This gen.
tleman has shown that he possesses few Of
the qualifications for the important ofice he
holds. Instead OF being judicial, dignifed,
temperate. courteous in both language and
manner, Mr.. Pugh has shown himself a parti-
san, with little regard either for his own dig
nifty or that of the court, and careless both in
speech and demeanor.
There may be vocations eIcellently well
suited for Mr. Pughs brilliant attainments,
but as prosecuting officer in the police court
he seems sadly out Of place.

Asking Other powers TO Co.operato.

The State Department has initiated the next
phase of the sealing question by addressing
an dentic note TO all of the maritime
powers, inviting them to adhere to the
agreement reached by the United States
and Great Britain relative TO the protection
OF the seal fisheries. This was made neces-
sary by the award Of the Paris arbitration.
which found that the United States had no
exclusive jurisdiction over the seal waters,
and that these could be protected only by mu-
tual agreement.

CLOAK ROOM AND GALLERY.

The Honorable Marriott Drosius, Of Penn
sylyania, known as one of the most pictur-
esque characters in the House in his poetic
and literary effusions, has a collection of cam
paign songs in Yesterdays Congressional Rec
ord that will undoubtedly result in an enor-
nous demand for the issue as a campaign
document.
The speech purperts to have been delivered
on August 13. but as a matter Of fact IL was
published under general leave to print. and
so this Brosian symposium has not yet been
given to the public. The speech is on the
thrift and the argument placed in small eapi-
tails at the head of the speech is Fletchers apt
saying Let me write the ballads Of a nation,
and care not who makes their laws.
In mounting his unreined Pegasus, Mr..
Brosius says: II shall not set before our un-
regen rate brethren their sins OF omission
and commission i'll the scarlet livery of their
real turpitude. but | shall let the matter be
established by witnesses of well-Hpproyed
character for tenderness andy mercy. / shall
summons the muses., who each in her own
peculiar field, yet oil with uniform consent
and true poetic ardor, have volunteered 10
transmit the manifold delinquencies which
shall engage their pens 70 coming generations
on wings OF immortal song.
Then the Honorable Marriott sets down 10
the task Of showing. from a collection OF at
least a score OF humorous poems. rhymes, and
ballads that the Democratic party is not quite
as popular with the people as it was IN 1892.
Altogether, the best is the following:
THE sUGAR-cURED CONGRESS.
TUSE-''The oid oaken Bucket"
How dear to our hearts is our Democratic Con-
gress;
AS hopeless inaction presents it TO view;
The bill OF poor Wilson, the deep-tangled tariff,
And every mad pledge that their lunacy knew;
The widespread depression, the mills that closed
by il.
The rock OF free silver where great Grover fell;
They've busted our country, no use to deny it,
And, darn the Old party, it's busted as well
This Q. Cleyelands Congress,
This Queen Lilly Congress,
This wild free-trade Congress
We all love so we'll
Their moss-covered pledges we no longer treas
For often at noon, when out hunting fob,
We find that instead OF the corn they had prom
ised,
They've given US nothing, not even cob.
How ardent we've cussed 'em with lips over
With sulphurous blessings as great swear
words fell;
Are sounding in sorrow the workingman's
Knell
This bank-breaking Congress,
This miIl-closiug Congress,
This starvation Congress
We all love so we'll
How sweet from their eloquent Inns 70 receive il,
Cursed tariff protection no longer uphold"
We istened-and voted our dinner pals empty,
he factories silent, the furnaces cold;
And now far removed from our lost situations
The tear of regret doth intrusively swell
We yearn for Republican administration,
And sigh for the Congress that served us 80

This Democratic Congress,
This sugGr-cured Congress
