Congressman Bland Thinks a Division

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Sept. Tex Con
gresham Bland was here yesterday.
He was asked "In case the national

ssThere would be a division bet xeen

The narty is inharmonious. War issues,
the tariff and other things have kept the
narty together heretofore, but they are
being lost sight of. The only thing the
free silver Democrats can do Is to
keen organizing. If there should

wonld haue great effect. 1t was the
issue of the last $62, 100000 that set the

LOOK TO THE COMMITTEES.

If the people of the District want cheaper
gas they must so express themselves in
The most emphatic manner during the in
ferval that Will clapse before the meeting
pfCongress, that members OF that body may
realize that the reduction is desired.
When Congress meets a strong hand should
pc taken in the formation Of the commit
tees OF the District of Columbia in both
souses. For long years these committees
IN all Congresses have been strangely leth-
argic when any proposition arose to meddle
with the affairs of wealthy corporation.
This inertness has been so invariable as to
cause heated comment, but the offenders
Ieemed TO be impervious to criticism
Citizens OF the District, remembering
This, should use every possible Influence
upon the Speaker who will be elected TO
preside in the next House, and upon the
Senate, to secure the naming OF members
of The District of Columbia committees
who Will promptly report favorably and
support earnestly and honestly not only
bills providing for cheaper gas, but also
for the abolition of many other abuses of
which the people have bitterly complained
for years.
While committees cannot enforce the
passage of bills, their treatment of them
goes great way toward their success or
defeat. Let the Senate and. the next Speaker
understand that the entire citizenship of
The District is tremendously in earnest in
this matter.

COMPARED TO JOHN L..
New York View of Corbett's Cha noes
With Lanky Bob.

Recent events have considerably mod
iricd the views of men who take an interest
in puSilistic matters, and If Corbett and
Fitzsimmons were about to enter the
ring tomorrow for their long -taiked-of
contest it is not probable that much odds
would be given on the Californian in The
betting, says the N. Y. Sun. The develop
ments of the Corbett divorce suit, followed
so soon by the champions strange en-.
counter with FitZsimmons in the bar uf a
Philadelphia hotel and other almost equsly
sensational happenings, are enough tu set
men asking whether he is really so differ
emf from Sullivan in his manner OF living as
has been popularity supposed, and whctbe,
the same causes which are said to have
initiated against John L. in his later bat
ties may not now BE- reasunab bly, considered
as factors in weighing Corbett's chances
with the Ianky Australian
The failings of the latter, if he has any
that deserve consideration, are those OF a
rough. manly man, and even thosr who are
not FitzsImmons' admirers admit that he

THE TEMpLARs, CoScLAyE.

1t is rot disparaging TO the character of
any other civic organization in the world
to say that the Knights Templar at their
oonolaves probably present the handsomest
and most picturesque spectacle of all when
engaged in their evolutions in the streets of a
city. Consequently their presence is in
great demand, aud their conciaves arouse
general interest.
Boston is the spot which is so highly IA
vored this year, and the people of that Amer
lean Athens and of all New England are
excited over the event which is to culmi-
nate next week. There the four comma nd
cries of the District of Columbia will be
represented by about four hundred swords,
and one, the De Molay, will have well OH to
hundred white-plumed Knights in the
Nddle. Hundreds of members of their fam
9ics will accompany them, and there is no
loubt that Washington will be as well rep
3esented as any other spot of the Union and
= is probable that in their Knightly evolu-
tops the delegations from the local COM
naDderies will excel all Others in grace
Snd precision. Remembering the grand
spectacle OF the coDc,ave of a few years ago
in this city, the people of this region can
veil understand the fine treat that is In
store for RostoD.
The strife is already warm among several
cities for the possession of the conclave of
1898. At this time Pittsburg appears to
have ''he CALL" That city, with char
scteristic enterprise, has already sub

vhen he has been brought face 10 face with

when he has been brought face TO face with
Fitzsimmons. On the contrary. the Austria
liam has shown himself a most cool-hcaded
and exaspcrating foe. Should Corbett lose
his temper when he confronts Fitzsimmons
to battle for the championship it may be q
much more serious matter for him than
when he stormed and scowled at a stale
little Englishman who was couceding him
years In age and almost forty pounds In
weight. Fitzsimmons, the cool, skiIlful,
agile boxer. whose sledge-hammcr blows
easily vanquished Dempsey, Mahcr and
Hall, will not be slow TO seize an advan-
tage. And these are some of the considera-
tions which are leading even admirers OF
Corbett to be more conservative in esti-
mating his chances in the coming contest.

ROYAL ORATOR.
Duke of York and the Geographical

Duke of York and the Geographical
Congress
He walked into the room in ordinary even
ing dress. with nothing about him to suggest
being of superior clay, except the broad.
ribbon crossing his breast ard an attend
ant in cour; attire, who stood at a respectful
distance. His coming had been announced
to the zoo geographcrs present by a bust
ling little Englishman, who suddenly shot
into the room in great apparent hurry and
somewhat shrilly announced:
Take your seats, please. The dukes

He was the Duke of York, and he may sit
on the throne Of England some day, if her
gracious Ma jesty does not outlivc all her
DESCENDANTS. He had left his fair wife and
young heir at home and had gone to South
Kensiiictor to welcome to England the men
from ali over the world, who had arrived
in London as delegates to the Interna-
tional Geographical Congress; and as he
assembled the platform, foot above the
floor, the foreign ambassadors in London
crowded around to greet him, and then be-
gan to present the delegates from their
various countries.
Theduke made pleasa Mt impression upon
tne Foreigners. he was simple anu ara bic

slightly as he heard each name, and again,
in more generous measure, as he grasped

the throug had been larger. II not, he
can endure q good deal OF that sort OF exer-

saved In responding 10 o sick call.
DIR. Dillenbeck, who was among the first
10 use bicycle for professional purposes,
says that 1t is far more convenient than
any other vehicle at night 1t is always
ready for immediate departure, affords
rapid transit and is more economical and
useful than a horse.
II Is now becoming quite an ordinary
sight to see physician with his medicine
case or surgical out fit in front of him rap
idly pedaling down a street on his way TO
visit patient. II seems to coLsirm the
belief that the uses OF the wheel are practi-
cally without limit.
This has been one of the most remark
able summers have ever kEown,'' said Al
old resident last night. Here 1t is the
middle OF August and cool enough to wear a
light overcoat and be thoroughly comfort
able. With. the exception OF about ten
days Of hot weather, which have been
scattered promisciously throug hout the
summer months, we have had little or no
weather to complain Of The nights have
been universally cool ard sleeping has at
all times been luxury. TIE people wAo
were forced TO stay at home this summer
have certainly stolen marc, on those
who aied themselves away to the seaf hore
and mountains early in the season, for
Washington, so far as the weather is
concerned, has been an ideal summer resort
this year"
The ways of the Metropolitan Street
Railway Company are peculiar. Indeed,
they seem to go by oppOsites ard extremes,
IL the rule which went into effect yester-
day Is any criterion. From time immemo-
rial and 1t has been an csta blished custom on
all the open street cars of the Capital that
smokers should occupy the rear seats.
Whether this rule emanated from q desire
to spare the nostrils of the other occupants
OF the car from the odor OF rank twOfer,
which might perchance be waited back
ward by some unkind wind, is not known,
but the fact is, such has been the rule.
But the Metropolitan Company and Mr.
Phillips have changed the old order of
things, and if you want to enjoy your cigar
and ride on their new street cars, you must
take front seat and remain the envy OF
contempt OF those behind you. This is
indeed progressive age, and one is re-
minded every day by some new fad or
fancy that times change and men change
with them.
