wHITNEY's ANATOMY.


 coincidence, the members most active in this business are popul1sts and demo- crats. The republican attitude was defined by MT. Reed when he was in New York. According to him an inn peaehment of a president should never be party question. He remarked that an impeachment should never be un- dertaken unless rendered imperative. Otherwise the dignity of the executive branch of the government might be compromised. Howard, of Alabama, who means to fight fercely for im- peachment, came to New York ex- pressly to gather evidence of MT. Cleve- lands alleged collision with Wall street financiers. He personally inter- viewed many prominent men here and the accumulation of documents in his hands is simply immense. Tillman is in sympathy with Towards scheme, as are numerous other southern congress- men. Whitney is alleged by the south erners to have done yeoman's service for Cleveland in the matter ot hamper ing all their Investigations. Mr. Whit ney is contemptuously referred to by Mir. Howard as the millionaire whose head is bigger than his whole body. At the same time there is no doubt that Mir. Whitney has stood manfully by Cleveland in this crisis. The trouble is not that Mr. Cleveland seriously fears that he will be impeaehed. The only thing about it is that he would feel hu- initiated if congress actually began to consider anything of the sort. MT. Whitney has enormous personal influ ence with the southern members, and he is to be relied upon to exert it in order to have the impeachment idea smothered.
 What with brilliant weddings and local elections, tbe impending congress has received very little. attention in New York From now on, however, it will be an object of great interest even if the first Monday in December is some distance away yet.

Of course, he cannot prevent the men, tion of his name by enthusiasts nor can he prevent a scramble for his in- fuence. Meanwhile he devotes him self to legal business and to fishing. In the latter he is now an expert. He is well known to the 'longshoremen of the metropolis He wears rough flannel shirt on his piscatorial expedi- tions, a rough cap and a belt. He weighs his own catch with his own scales and never brags. As a poli- tician, he has placed himself on the re- tired list. As a lawyer he is painstak- ing and successful. It is positively amusing to those who understand the situation to observe how persistently his movements are connected with po- Htical matters. He is certainly sincere In his contention that he is out of poli- tics.

Those who have made his acquaintance address him fa- miliarly as ''duke," while in his own hotel he is known simply as 'Mr Churchill" He is pretty well known by sight in New York, for he takes long walks through the streets and goes in for all the sights. He has been up to the top of most of the sky serapers, and looks upon these arch itectural eminences as veritable won ders. He remarked to o. H. P.

4 Mighty Band of Islks.

A correspondent of Shooting and Fishing, writing from Cora, Wy, gives an account of band of elks that came under her observation year ago. The correspondent and her husband were driving home from a railroad station with load of supplies. The snow was between one and three feet deep. The band when it was sighted extended backward like great black streak for fully three miles, and was pouring over the hill in front like a torrent to the river. The trail of the elks was clearly marked in the snow and was fully two rods wide. From an estimate of the time itrequired for the band to traverse this section from where the animals were first seen until the last one had passed it is estimated that between six thousand and seven thousand elks were in movement.

Her second essay was with a piquant tur- ban. It had furry brim of sable that came down in soft but startling con trast upon the light hair.

of Maine in the place filled in the last
Congress by the author of the Wilson BILL
There is no stronger delegation in Con
gress than that composed of these four
men from Maine. This is not boast; it
is an admitted fact. And this strength is
brought about in part by their long ex-
perience.
Consider the Congress which assembled
today OF the $50 representatives, 1853,
or almost 80 per cent Of them, are abso-
lutely new men, who never sat in the
House before. OF the remaining mem
bers only % have been there more than
four terms, and the Maine men are among
the seniors of these 2S Mr. Reed is very
far from being an old man, yet there are
but three men of the whole $50 who have
been in the House longer than he; there
are but six of the 356 who have been there
longer than Mr.. Dingley, and but nine
longer than Messrs. Boutelle and Mill
ken.
This is one of the secrets of Maine S
leadership in Congress. She picks her
men out carefully and then she keeps
them there. This is not new saying,
vet not all realize that Maine stands at
the head of the states in the tenure OF
office of It's representatives, believing in
the scriptural injunction, AS thy days
are, so shall thy strength be.

however, was won in Paris, and Paris

in 1927, but it was not till 1880 that, in
"Le Dieu ct Ia Bayadere," she took her
real place. In 1889 came "La Sylphide, p"
a still greater triumph, in which even the
physical defects of TagIioni, especially her
phenomenal thinness, seemed almost to
add to the effect she produced.
She made diaphanousness the fashion;

Grover Cleveland an idol TO how down

arrived when that idol slips from its ped
estal.
In speaking of the chief executive of
the nation, be no whom he may, it is
gratifying to note moderation in
those, whose uttorances command inilu-
ence. This is noticeable regarding the
comments upon the recent message Of
President Cleveland. 1t is true that he
neglected to touch the most vital of all
questions before Congress, the deficit in
revenue; it is true that he commercially
affrontcd the free silver wing of his party
it Is true that he aroused the opposition of
many OF both parties by trying to discrcdit
greenbacks; it is true that he repudiated
his former comments upon the mongrel
tariff; it is true that he angered the an
glomaniacs by his attitude on the Nene
zuelan question, while he interpreted the
Monroe doctrine contrary to the interpre-
tation of history: all this is undeniable
rs is the fact that the President has in
many respects cut loose from any political
party and can look for support in his
numerous and divergent positions, from
no considerable faction of any political
party. And yet by reason of these facts he
does not stand in disgrace before the people
and with his integrity, his honesty OF pur
pose, sullied. But there is feature Of
that message which remains to be con
