From the st. Louis Republic of Monday 1t
viii be seen that our Dorsey" is getting on TOP
again. Our leading citizens will recognize the
following:
On the crest of the great reform wave which
has swept over Chicago rides II. Dorsey Patton
1t seems to be conceded that Dorsey is to be
OIL Inspector under the merit system.
You might think, from the way he divides his
name on the meridian line, that Dorsey is a
mugwump. Far from it. A truer spokesman
never lived. and let it be added that there are
few men with hearts more in sympathy with
the common people
Dorsey was member of the Illinois house In
the session of 1891 and one of the Worlds Fair
Committee which visited the palatial home of
Mrs Potter Palmer when that estimable and
ambitious woman was seeking an appropriation
for the support of the Womans board. The
Committee was sumptuOusly entertained As
the members took carriages in front of the
house for the return to their hotel. one of them
voiced query. which was doubtless in the
minds Of all his colleagues, in asking: Shall
we ever come here again ?" Dorsey answered
the question. IF any of us" said he. 'ever get
In that house again we'll have to have jimmies.
Dorsey will make an excellent Oil Inspector.
He is quick to detect oily CANNON in politics,
and deadly foe of fusel oil in whisky.

was bit of firt, SO the gossips say,
and it is thought that she caused the
heart of Washington more uneasiness
than the bayonets of the British in
yader.
The grounds in front extended from
the porch, which is now about hun
dred feet above the level of the earth,
down to the street, and there was a
lovely lawn on which grew sixteen
handsome Lombsrdy poplars, in whose
shade the gsllants of the day smoked
and fiji Led or talked about the political
disturbances of that time. The hotel
now stands on this lawn.
Among other colonial relics is Christ
Church, in which Washington wor-
shipped, and his pew bearing his name
on plate is still preserved and shown
daily to visitors. In the yard of the
church are many graves of the last CEN
tury, whose inscriptions are to US ludi-
crous samples of ancient epitaphs. Not
far from the Carlisle house is what has
been the old City Hotel, in which the
balls of revolutionary days took place,
and the balcony for the musicians is
still in good order in the dancing-room.
The clock still preserved in the Ma
sonic Lodge is the identical timepiece
which stood in the room when Wash
ington died, and the hands are still
pointed to the hour when he breathed
his last. Here also are the gloves and
other paraphernalia which Washington
wore on the occasion of civic and Ma
sonic ceremonies.-Philade Times
