choir singing "Peace on earth, to men
good will" As matter of fact, when
the angels came here singing that
song, they found it to be 50 unwelcome
a strain that they flew back through
the pearly portals and have never been
heard of since.
Senator Turpie, Of Indiana, has al.
ways been nervous man, and during
his incumbency Of seat in the senate
he has been almost driven crazy by the
page boys and others who make all
sorts of noises. He does not like to have
senator's about him snap their fingers
to attract the attention of the pages.
He does not like to have himself jostled
by senator's and others passing back Of
his chair. He is pitifully nervous. But
he is very good man, and always
speaks in kindly manner to the boys
and men employed about the senate.
Senator ingalls,, of Kansas, was SO ex-
cessively nervous that he could not en-
dure the scratching Of pen or the
noise of a typewriter in his committee
room. Consequently all of the writing
had to be done when he was absent.
This made it rather hard on his private
secretary, who had to do his work at
odd times and under all sorts of circum-
stances. He was not only nervous, but
impatient and autocratic; and some
people said that he was altogether too
aristocratic. He had brass railing put
around his desk to keep the general
public from coming into contact with
him. He would receive them oil and
talk with callers, but they could not
get to him and make themselves IA
miliar with him. His successor, SEN
ator Mcmillan, of Michigan. had that
brass railing taken away, and allowed
the people who have business in that
committee room to come right up to the
chairman and talk business. Senator
Mcmillan is not nervous.
Il don't mean TO be profane," says
Senator Money, of Mississippi. II am
simply nervous and am obliged to ex-
press myself in nervous manner"
Strange as my ultra religious friends
will regard it, that statement is abso-
lutely true. The senator does not mean
to be profane, and he is one of the most
refined gentlemen in the world. But
he is nervous and somewhat excitable,
and on such occasions he is little pro-
fame in his ejaculatory remarks. 1t was
simply because of a nervous irritability
that he got into an alteration last year
at the capitol with another congress-
man. when they threw ink bottles and
other missiles at each other. It would
seem to be well for extremely nervous
people to carry guardians with them, to
manage their tempers for them.
Librarian Spofford, the man whose
genius has developed the vast con-
gressional library, and because of
whose persistence and insistence the
congressional allibrary build
ing was provided for by congress, is one
of the most polite and magnetic men in
public life. Men and women are drawn
to him by his manners; because no mat
ter how busy he may be he is at all
times accessible, polite, agreeable, and
even genial. Such men are bound to
prosper In this world, and when they
depart this life leave behind them,
Of love in the sands Of time.

Kansas City, Jan. 26.-The machine

other branches of the mechanical depart-

tenn, with the exception of the round
houses, we're closed yesterday. The shops
were idle by the order of the new man

in every way possible. 1t is said that the
officials saw that the road would not be
able to earn this month an amount suffi-
cient to defray the expenses of the
various departments, and it was decided
to close the shops for one day in order to
reduce the deficit. The amount saved by

Mr.. A. P. Hill said that he and other
citizens desired to be heard on the sub
iect.
At the suggestion of the mayor it was
agreed that citizens might be heard in
executive session and then retire.
Sheriff Cunningham insisted upon
public hearing, declared shat executive
sessions were not Democratic, and that
the proposed action would injure the
party.
Mr.. Garcia rejoined that the council
was engaged in doing public not party
business.
For few moments the scene WAS
quite animated with Mr.. Cunningham
and other citizens clamoring for hearing
and members of the council insisting
upon the executive session.
Finally the mayor peremptorily COM
manded silence and ordered the hall
cleared of outsiders.
The mayor then nominated Pedro A.
Sandoval for city marshal.
At this juncture Mr.. Cunningham and
Mr.. King were admitted into the hall.
Both protested against the proposed ac-
tion. Mr.. Cunningham asked that the
matter of making the appointment be
deferred, but this the council declined to
do.
Again the hall was cleared and the
appointment was confirmed to a vote of 6
to l.
Mr.. Gold was designated to act till Mr..
Sandoval qualified.
The executive session then closed aud
the council soon after adjourned.

WHIP-HAND FOR GOLDBUGS.
Another Illustration Of the Beauties
Of Republican Financial Leg
isIatiOn

New York, Jan. 27.--In it's financial
review for the past week the Morning
Journal says:
"In order to make gold shipments this
week the -" ara have been obliged to
! do sting to get green
backs W draw the gold from
the treat u a premium is paid for
greenba profits Of gold shipping

ing premium. The banks will not give
up greenbacks unless pressure is Brought
to bear on them, 30 the result is that
bankers and exporters are engaged in a
stiff game, with greenbacks as the table
stakes.
''In their emergency the exporters have
threatened that if they can not get green
backs they will send alarming cablegrams
to London to the effect that gold can not
be obtained because the banks have cor
nered legal tenders and will not give them
up. The effect OF this abroad, it is ar
gued, would be that financiers would as
sumo that American money had gone to
smash and they would thereupon begin
selling American securities, thus bringing
about another panic. This possibility is
being pictured in its worse phase in or
der to make bankers give up greenbacks,
and there is no doubt that the scheme of
the exporters has succeeded to slight
extent at least.
"Because of the uncertain future of the
reserve the treasury officials are severely
criticised for not giving out information
about gold Withdrawals other than for
shipment. 1t is claimed that this secrecy
may result in misapprehensio some
day with disastrous results to the mar
ket."
sQUEAL FROM BOSTON.
Boston.-The Herald says:
"Gold and legal tenders are here made
articles of merchandise, and the money
in use is silver, silver notes and national
bank bills, with few certificates of legal
tender deposits. Az these certificates are
in $4,000 pieces, and the secretary of the
treasury refuses to authorize $4,000
pieces, it becomes embarrassing in paying
odd balances to cut them up in some way.
The clerk of the clearing house does this
virtually by depositing treasury $4,000
certificates with some bank and drawing
non-interest checks against them. The
clearing house association has the reme-
dy for this difficulty in it's own hands.
By rule of its own making silver GER
tiicates and national bank notes are
never rendered In paying balances. If
silver certificates were rendered, they
would have to be accepted. Why, then,
should not the rule be repealed, and pay
ment of balances in lawful money be al
lowedf The banks surely should not
discriminate against their own notes, and
especially banks which urge retirement of
legal tender notes in favor of bank notes.
1t may be said that the banks deserve
what they are experiencing at clearing.
1t does not seem quite the thing that ma
tional banks should improvise substi-
tutes for money when they have their
own notes in sufficient amounts for use.
It looks as If the banks would have to
cease discriminating against silver and
bank bills, or else take out more clearing
house loan certifcatas."
