Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
WASHINGTON, May 2S.-That part of
Washington's society that finds its pleasure
in chasing an anise-scented bag over the
hills and farms surrounding this city has
interesting topic of conversation just at
present in the drunken trick of an attache
Of one of the foreign legations at Wash
ington. The offense charged against this
wouId-be diplomat is of those studied
bits OF wild deviltry which a young news
paper man of this town, i'm vell-written
article on the subject. has termed 'Bo-
hernia According to Prograrlme<s' The sort
of thing that was interesting and humorous
the first time II was done, but which has.
by constant repetition, become simply boor-
ish. On the occasion referred to the at
tache of legation rode a horse into the
dining room of the Country Club while a
dinner was on. and not only seriously
alarmed the diners but ruined the hand
some inlaid floor of the club dining ROOM
necessitating the relaying of the greater
part OF the floor. AS may well be imagined
the advent of the drunken foreigner on a
charging. rearing. half-trained hunter oc-
casioned the widest alarm and caused a
panic. The diners fed from the tables.

who laughed hugely at his good joke and
and led from the room by the walters
The foreigner was carried to his humble
fiat. and the incident would probably have
been forgotten had 1T not been for the wild
indignation of the board of governors of
the club So great was this Indignation
that a special meeting was held for the
purpose of considering the case, and a
result an order was issued by the board Of
governors forbidding the admission to the
club of any foreigner. and especially of any
member of any OF the legations. An nves-
tigation was also made to ascertain the
names of those who were present. and who,
by their silence. appeared to have condoned
the offense. 1t was stated at the time
that the board of governors would also is
sue an order to the effect that none of
those present on the night the offense oc-
Cured would be again admitted TO the
clubhouse. but this is denied. as some
OF the people who were there on that oc-
casion were leaders of Washington's most
exclusive society. the chaperone of the
party being the wife OF a prominent Sen
ator The affair." ii is said, may become a
social issue. as any attempt OF the club
officials to ostracise the women who We're
present on the evening would bring about
a fight among the most prominent society
people i'm Washington. a fight that would
finally involve nearly all Washington's So
cial leaders II Is also hnted that II the
men are brought into the affair blood NAV
be spilled. Those who are acquainted with
the men prominent In Washington society
know that there Is but little cause for
alarm on this score.

PREVIOUS FUNERALS.
Gresham's Will He the Third In the
Cabinet in Recent Years.

Sauinet IN recent 1e0rS.
WASHINGTON, May 2S Secretary
Gresham's will be the third funeral service
in the Cabinet circle held in the White
House in recent years. The first was the
services over the wife and daughter of Sec
retary of the Navy Tracy, of President
Harrison's Cabinet, who met a tragic death
by jumping from the windows of their
house on L street. Mr.. Harrison requested
that the bodies Of the dead should be taken
to the executive mansion. and this was
done. Before the end of the administra-
ton Mrs. Harrison herself died in the
White House, and prayers for the dead
were read in the east room. No member of
President Cleyeland's first Cabinet died in
Office. Secretary of the Treasury Window,
cf President Harrison's official circles, was
stricken by sudden death at a public din
ner in New York, and, although his body
was brought to Washington. the funeral
service was held in the Presbyterian
Church of the Covenant of which he had
been an attendant. Two Secretaries were
removed from President Arthurs Cabinet
by death-Folger and Howe-but their fun
erals were conducted at churches. The pro-
cedure in the case of Secretary WINDOWS
death is indicated in the following order,
dated Jan. 81, 1891. and issued by President
Harrison:
'All the departments of the executive
branch OF the government and the officers
subordinate thereto shall manifest due re-
spect TO the memory OF this eminent clti-
zen in manner consonant with the dignity
of the office which he has honored by his
devotion 10 public duty. That the Treas
ury Department, in all its branches, in this
Capitol be draped in mourning for the per-
iod of thirty days; that on the day or the
funeral the several executive departments
shall be closed. and that on all public build
ings throughout the United States the
tional flag shall be displayed at half mast"
While IL is at present the intention TO fol-
low the precedent set in the Window case,
and that is the omission OF all signs of
mourning with which the great executive
department buildings were draped for thir-
" days. In the legislative, executive and
judicial appropriation act approved March
80, 1888 Congress provided, that hereafter
purposes by the government OF the United
States. shall be draped in mourning, and no
part of the public funds shall be used for
such purposes" Two years before this, In
the act approved Feb. o. 1891, Congress had
also changed the law affecting the success
the death of Secretary Gresham so as TO
read: "A vacancy occas.oned by death or
resignation must not be temporarily filled
(under the three preceding sectionsl for. a
longer period than thirty days" The Old
law had limited the duration OF a tempo
but the President may now designate Mr..
Uhl TO act as Secretary of State for thirty
days at most. In fact, that is just what
President Harrison did after Secretary
Blaines resignation. for Mr.. Wharton acted
under his designation as Secretary Of State
