since Mr.. Mckinley came in. How long
1t viii last no one knows. But for tho
present the official residence of the president
Is more like any other public office. In.
deed the freedom of movement there is
greater than it is at the state department
or the war department 1t is by no means
difficult task 70 get 10 see the president.
MIR. Cleveland was very exclusive. He
shut his doors, and his orders 10 his assist
ants were not TO let any one in unless it
were case of absolute necessity. Mr.
Cleveland complained that he had no time
for work, and that if he were TO give prop
er attention TO his duties he must refuse TO
SEQ nine-tenths of the people who called
The result was that callers were compelled
FOR the most part TO transact their business
with the private secretary.
The average American citizen does not
like this. He wants to do business at head
quarters. IL he cannot see the boss, he
won't play. have seen hundreds of men,
important and influential men, too, leave
the Office of Private Secretary Thurber an.
CRY because they could not obtain an inter
view with the president. lt must be said
TO Mr.. Cleveland's credit that he did not
know of good many Of these cases. Men
came and went without his knowledge.
President Mckinley tries to see every one
that calls. When the important visitors are
attended TO, the door of the presidents Of
flee is thrown open and dozen or 20 or
more people are admitted together. A lit.
tie experience has shown that this is the
quickest way to dispose of callers.
Artfui and Pretty.
President McKinlcy's manner i'm these
catch as catch can interviews is certainly
admirable He is on his feet all the time.
He moves about from one to the other. I
watched him for some time the other day,
and cab truthfully say have not seen
anything as a1ful and pretty in a long
time. The chief magic .s-Je contrived not
TO let any of the callers lead him off into
corner, knowing very well thaG the thicker
the crowd the shorter the conversation. In
every instance tie interviews took place
within earshot of several other visitors
certainly IA very disoouraging circumstance
to persons inclined to grow insistent, con-
fidential and explanatory. The president
listened with good deal of patience, but
without much sacrifice of time. lie stands
close up 10 his caller, looks tho man i'm the
eye, grasps the point quickly, and in 80
cases out of 100 says in his bland way:
Have you been to the department. vet?
Nor We'll, take my advice and get your
papers in there. We can do nothing till
you have seen the secretary. If YOU want
TO do so, you may leave your papers here,
and we will send them to the department
for you. But it will be better for you to
see the secretary yourself"
And If the papers are left in President
Mckinloy's hands he pulls out his lead
pencil and writes upon their back the name
of the department to which they are to be
referred and hands them over TO his secre-
tary. Then he is ready for the next caller.

PITY THE POOR CRIMINAL.
We learn with painful emotions that,
because there are 200 more toughs and
thugs and thieves and small burglars and
riff raft of one sort and another than the
I architects of tho Providence county Jail
| contemplated in their most sanguine ex-
pectations of tho future census of cell
holders, many of the unfortunate GRIM
inals are compelled TO wrap themselves
in blankets and lie on the floor instead of
occupying beds AS tho Board of State
Charities truly declare this is "A deplora-
BILE condition though we are glad TO learn
that the unfortunates are getting used to
the situation and perhaps may shortly DC
able TO WOO the goddess of sleep like the
innocent babes they are ON the hard floor
as erstwhile they were permitted to do
upon their luxuriant couchcs.
Alas, for tho poor thug, the unfortunate
tough, the much-abused thief, tho patient
and long suffering riff raft Of one kind
and another that the Board of State
Charites-what bidcous commentary
lies in the cruelty thus cited on that word
'chariticsI say are compelled 10 sleep
ON the floor because the hard hearted
General Assembly has declined to make
speed with that $780, 600 appropriation TO
build new addition to the Jail with a
flrst-floor corner room and bed in it for
every one of the thugs and toughs and
small burglars and riff raft. Cruel Gen
eral Assembly, The spectacle presented
mt Cranston these days, as a result of their
neglect, or rather these nights, is enough
to melt the stones of the Jail and lot the
unfortunatcs all out, like oozing through
walls of molasscs.
Still il is comfort to know that the
Jail is nicely heated with steam, that
the thugs and toughs arc treaed kindly
during their waking hours, that they do
not have to work too hard, that they are
provided with tobacco and that they get
their meals with n certainty and in suf-
flcient quantity we believe, TO keep body
and soul very comfortably together. In
deed, perhaps, if the Board of State Char
tiles would look about the town they
might find a few persons who would
checrfully change places with the States
charges at the Jail and sleep on the floor
providing they could be permitted to CO.
cupy the jail without IA resort to dishonest
practices or loss of self respect. For we
have no doubt that there are men, women
and children in this vicinity who would
give up their beds i'm favor Of plenty to
eat good care, work that neither worries
nor wears out tho body, and general re-
lease from those not altogether happy con-
ditions that make it something of a
struggle to maintain coal in the bin and
food In the lardcr and some little diff. |
Guilty as 10 keeping alive and without |
suffering through a rather trying winter.
And 80 it IS to be hoped that taking
into consideration, the unfort-
unate criminals at Cranston, rs they
toss upon the hard floor will not complain
too severely of the cruel neglect of an or
linarily much considerate and paternal
