 It is curious to observe the offers which come to the war department when there is a slight difference between this government and any other country. Military organizations in number of large cities have telegraphed the secre- tary, placing their services at the disposal of the department and expressing de- sire to take the field at once. One or two naval reserve organizations have sent similar profIers of service to the navy department. but all arc treated as jokes and receive little notice New York S11n

NUMBER THIRTEEN.
How It Bobbed Up at Every Turn of tn.
 St. Louis Delegation.

How It Bobbed Up at Every Turn of the
 St. Louis Delegation.
 Anent the selection of St. Louis as a convention city tho following story was told by ex-Congressman Nathan Frank of Missouri to show how absurd the 13 superstition idea is. When the idea of competing for the convention was broached, convention was called, and it was held on the 18th of the month. At the meeting committee was ap- pointed to look after the details, and it numbered IS.
 Then when this was noticed another man was added to the committee to take away the taint of ill luck. The fact was commented on when leaving St. Louis that the thirteenth member of the committee was assigned to berth No. 13 in the car. While driving from the depot in Washington to the Arling- ton it was noticed that there were 13 people i'll the bus.
 At the hotel Mir. Frank, who made one of the speeches in favor of St. Louis, was assigned to room No. l3 by the clerk. The final blow came last Tues day, when the first ballot was taken by the committee, who were to decide where the convention was to go. MT. Frank groaned in spirit when 18 votes were announced for St. Louis. When the final ballot came and St. Louis won, MT. Frank wrote "13" inside his hat and says that it is lucky number.

Things Seen and Heard at the Capitol at

 One of the saddest places about the whole capitol is that little corner oil of statuary hall where women wait the slow motions of their influence. The condensed heartache and desperation that are crowded into that narrow space day after day are enough to soften the most hard hearted. Out there, one day this week, sat widow. She was old and poor. It was raw, cold day but the desolate woman had only thin shawl about her aud one shoe was all broken at the side, so that only her stocking kept her foot from the ground. She had sent in for her. representa- tive, and when he came a1t, he was leoolly courteous, but finally seemed so warm up little. and, at her earnest solicitation, promised to see Senator ksomebody about getting her place. ne e Twas so emphatic in saying that sne Muss l.as 2 rot worry, but leave all to h,m, snas tss' sha fnrned to leave him with Del ny
