TO say, and the couple glided out without
having seen the interior of the White
House or conservatory, nor did they get
any flowers.
Jokes were often practiced In the
White House and in the family of the
President One incident 1 recall plainly.
OBSERVANCE OF THE SABBATH.
Mrs. Hayes always had great respect
and yeneration for the Sabbath, and she
so arranged her domestic affairs as 10 give
all her servants an opportunity TO attend
church on that day. Not one OF them ever
failed to enjoy this privilege through any
! fault of their mistress. Whenever there
was company In the house she would al
ways ask me TO have dinner at 8 O'Clock
in the evening, in order that the servants
might attend the sanctuary at the Gus
touary hours,
She was also very strict in regard to
performing any labor on the Sabbath.
All unnecessary work was absolutely for
| hidden at the w bite House on this hallOwed
day The family generally spent Sunday
evenings together at home, only few of
their most intimate friends being admitted
| to their circle. Among these were members
| of the Cabinet, Vice President Wheeler,
| Gems Sherman and Van VIiet, the McCooks,
| Major and Mrs. Mckinley, Amos Town
| send aud few others.
when President and Mrs. Hayes were
making their Western tour the train bear
| ing them on their journey one day stopped
at small station, where there were about
| hundred people assembled to see them.
! Mrs. Hayes, having raised the car window,
! every one came up and shook hands with
| her. Under the wiudow, on the outside of
| the car, there stood young gentleman
| with an autograph and pencil in his hand,
! which be kept necessarily passing up TO
| Mrs. Hayes for her signature. 1t was
| handed TO her so often she thought every
| body in the village was getting her auto
write in it until the train started, Soon

after they were under wa Y Mr.. Webb Hayes,
the Presidents sou, entered the car and re-
marked:
Mother, they all wanted your sigma
ture, did they not?' Yes she replied, al
most everyone had an autograph album
1 never saw so many before. l believe
wrote my name in over thirty OF them,
and what was so strange no one wanted
fathers. Her son then smilingiy held up
his own autograph album and said, Mother,
have your autograph Just forty times in
my book Everyone laughed heartily,
Mrs. Hayes at tie same time exclaiming,
oh, webb, you wretch, how could you do
such a thing as that?' Everybody enjoyed
the joke greatly, and none more so than
the good natured victim herself.
"Three great pests infested the White
House when President Hayes and bis family
took up their abode in it, viz, rats, cock
reaches, ana EcdbugS. The two lattercould
+ be numbered by the millions, and it cost
no small amount OF money and labor to
cxterminate them. The rats were very
destructive and there was not room in
the mansion in which was fire place that
was not visited by the rodents. Tbey
usually Travelled in droves OF fifteen or
+ twenty five and took possession of every
ROOM Evidently they were educated rats
| and opened their nightly frolics by sere-
| nading the President.
"The first night the President and his
wife were very much alarmed by their
noise and could not sleep. Finallyy he got
! up and struck light in order to ascertain
/ the cause OF such unusual racket during
| the silent watches of the night The
| scamper of rats UP the chimney at once
! explained the mysterious nocturnal music
| that had so startled the peaceful occupants
| of the room.
SIT cost 500 to rid the place OF the
| rats and $125 and the labor of two men
| for fifteen days to exterminate the reaches
| and bed bugs from the White House. This
| contract was given to Mr.. William IL.
I Houghton OF Washington, who fulfilled 1t
! to the letter. He had a large tank filled
/ with naphtha, in which nearly every article
| In the house was carefully dipped. This
caused all the bugs to leave the furniture
| and meet their death In the fluid. About
! eight bushels of them were skinned from
| the surface OF the naphtha when he had
| finished his task
| In conclusion Mr.. Crump told the fol-

dent OF some Senator, Representative or
judge. who stated that they desired 10 inter
cede in person for some candidate, when in
fact the name of such applicant was never
mentioned to the President. One instance
of this dupiicity will relate:
''Soon after President Hayes was inaugu-
rated a certain Lieut.. Hicks, who had been
member of the Presidents regiment, the
Twenty-third Ohio Volunteer Infantry,
called upon him at the White House.
He was good taIker and spread him
self'in fine style. He publically announced
that he was expecting appointment as
minister to Italy.
III would frequently bring one or
more Congressman to the White House,
ask for fne and request that his friends
card be taken 10 the President. This was
always was willing to do, and the friend
would obtain the desired interview. Some
times / would remain nearby and hear
this Jealous friend earnestly grinding
his own axe without ever mentioning
the name of Lieut.. Hicks.
Among this class OF dcceivcrs was a
certain eX-Judge from Pennsylvania, who
was brought up several times a week for
the express purpose of urging the appoint
ment of his lieutenant friend, but never
once heard him even refer TO that gentle
| man during either of his interviews. And
yet on Joining Hicks down stairs he would
/ slap him on the back and remark: You
| are all right, old fellow; you will soon be
] fixed
He never obtained his appointment.
| President Hayes had not promised it to
| him, but these facts were not known until
some time later.
VALUABLE PRESENTS RECEIVED.
Many times the Presidents favor was
| sought through the medium OF very hand
some and vcaluable gifts. On one occasion
box was delivered by express that had
been shipped from San Francisco and ad-
lresSed 10 President Hayes. ] opened the
! Jox and found It contained a beautiful
and expensive set OF furs. There was con-
siderable speculation asto where they came
from. We put them away and waited and
in few days a gentleman from San Fran
cisco called, with letter OF introduc-
! tion, and also prsented his application for
| the Collectorship OF the port OF Alaska.
AFTER some conversation and as he was
about leaving, he remarked: BY the way,
Mr.. President, did you receive a present
that sent you before leaving homer
