COME HERE AND LEARN.

Our Washington bicyclists can hardly be
blamed for feeling very sore over the speci-
men of Baltimore hospitality to which
they were treated on Sunday. In addition
10 the ride from here to the Monumental
city they had to go over quite long route
there, and to wheelwomen and wheelmes
accustomed to the smooth aud level streets
of the Capital the rough, billy payernents
of Baltimore were naturally something of
a fatiguing experience. Then they had
another long ride to the Long Branch shore
and when they reached that place their ex-
pectation of reasonable refreshment was
cruelty disappointed. The arrangements
for serving them were so absurdly deficient,
although according to all accounts there
was an abundance of eatables, that it be-
came soon evident to them that they would
have TO Shift for themselves; and SO it came
that the place where they were 80 have
been entertained was speedily deserted
by them and they hied themselves to places
in the city where they could appease their
appetite.
Although the intentions Of the baltimore
wheelmeu of course, were to treat their
Washington guests Hospitality, yet it is
difficult To fiGd an excuse for such fla
grant lack OF proper arrangements for the
comfort of the visitors as was exhibited ut
Long Branch Shore. Upon occasions of that
sort nothing must be left to chance. 1t was
the duty OF the committee in charge Of
the affair to see to it 10 advance that the
caterer had not only n sufficient quantity
refreshments butalso the necessary num-
Der of weaers aud all the accessories re-
CURED for proper serving.
We do these things differently here in
Washington.

this story. He did not wish to queer
Mr.. Morrison, but simply couldn't help
telling it,:
When the Ways and Means Commit
tee, said Mr.. Gear, was considering the
list they came to fla xseed. Mr.. Morrison
looked at it and said 'flaXseed, fiaxseed.
Yes lot OF our farmers grow it and it
should be on the. dutable list. Well put
1t there Shortly after they reached
linseed.

no one out in our country grows linseed.

and got a way uninj ured
The other men, 10 viewer, received a num-
Der of cuts, bumps and bruises, but their
wounds are not regarded as serious Hoff-
mans left cheek was split open by blunt
instrument
Parker was the most seriously hurt OF the
two. He was struck in the right temple
terrible blow which stretched him on the
pavement unconscious. The force of the
blow cut the eye considerably and necessi-
tated several stitches, In his fan hedroppeS

Hoffman was seen last night and he claims
that there were at least dozen men in the
crowd. Parker lay unconscious for about
an hour. Although the wounds are painful
and some of the cuts deep and long both
men will recover. In the meantime an eff
fort will be made to locate the perpetrators
of the deed.

THERE was good deal of gossip at
the Capitol about the difficulty that
was experienced in obtaining a sig
nature to the general deficiency bill
SO that it might be laid before the
President. In the absence Of Vice Presi-
dent Stevenson and President pro tempore
Frye, there was no one officially authorized
to make final disposition of rhe bill 50 far
as the Senate was concerned.
SCrgeant-at-A Arms Bright carried the hi!
around in his pocket Friday night and
Saturday morning camped AT the depot u
meet the Vice President, who was To pass
througa the city. During the stop ut the
station Mr.. Bright secured the signature
OF Mr. Stevenson, and then hurried to the
Executive Mansion with the bill.
This delay III receiving the engrOssed
bill accounts for the rather remarkable
fact that the President formally notified
the House Committee en- Appropriations
of his determination to veto the measure
thereby giving them an opportunity 10
prepare Il new bill and have il ready for
introduction when the veto should arrive
The President also compiled the message,

from a common printed bill, and sent his
communication to the House nlediately

III commentator OF the practice reca lied the
fact that it is only i'll recent years that
the extra has been made popular and
effective.
Il can remember" he said, that it
has only been eleven years since tie is
suance OF an extra in Washington was
practically unthought Of, and actually in
operative. On November 20, 1885, Thomas
A. Hendricks died and the we'll established
daily papers here did not seem 10 regard
the demise of the Vice President Of TIE
United States of sufficient consequence
10 warrant them in brea king over the
bomtls OF their daily routine.
Put one editor was longer-headed and
more far-sighted than his contemporaries
and he realized that an extra edition
would be stroke OF enterprise aud might
also be the means OF making little adGi-
tional money for the concern with which he
was connected. The Critic at that time
was struggling for existence, but having
no plant OF its own practically had its
hands tied II was determined, however,
to get out an extra audthe ways and means
must be provided.
No better plan suggesting itself, the
editor OF the Critic went to the Job office
where the nightly program for the National
Thcater was then printed and had a sheet
issued the size OF the program and worked
off IN the same form, which was labeled
Extra Critic and sold all over the city,
being the first Intelligence OF tue Vice
President death.
This was a sort OF pioneer experiment
in the matter of issuing extra editions Of
daily papers here and he practice has stead

A reference TO the state

1t is easily possible for a

advertisers, by sending out
thousands of papers to

statement of circulation.
Intelligent advertisers,
however. Judge by results,
and bogus circulation don't

sands in excess of any other

believed TO be fully two

A young man most deserving of praise
at this time is Mr.. O. E. Younglove, of
Orange Ridge. He spread before us this
week, to our great surprise, several
leaves of Havana tobacco, OF a rich
brown color, delicate as silk and as fra
grant as a first class cigar. 1t burned
clearly with white, fine ash, and excel
lent aroma. Mr.. Kretschmar, WHO'S an
expert in these matters, pronounces it
the equal of any tobacco. Mr.. Young
love informs us he has a Furnishing
quarter of an acre of this tobacco nearly
ready for the barn. If he is as success
full in curing it as he has been in growing
it, he has big thing at this time when
the price of first class tobacco is going
higher and higher, and he has valuable
experience in what will soon be the
staple crop of this section of country
with one hundred factories within forty
miles and land and climate exactly
suited. -Braidentown Journal.
