WASHINGTON LETTER.
FrOm our rcRuutr correspondent

number OF republican members OF
the house would join with Jerry
Simpson and the kicking democrats
in an effort to compel Speaker Reed
10 appoint the committees and to
have the house meet daily and take
up general legislation. The story
once started was widely exploited by
lobbists and their newspaper organs,
they being naturally opposed to a
continuation Of the present policy
which leaves them without occupa-
ton or remuneration, and probably
they have some believers. 1t il well
known to every intelligent man
around the capitol that the adoption
Of the policy to coufne the legislation
of the house TO acting upon the APP
propriation bills that failed at the
last session and the Dingley tariff
bill was tire result of numerous con
ferences participated in by every
prominent republican who was at
the time in Washington, republican
senators and representatives and by
President Mckinley and his entire
cabinet. When majority Of the
republicans in the house desire a
change it can easily be had. Speaker
Reed has publicly announced his
willingness to obey the orders of a
republican caucus at any time, but
he viii pay no attention to attacks
made by combination Of populists,
democrats and AT full hand of disgrun-
tied republicans. 1t isn't his policy
that is being carried out, but that Of
the republicans Of the house.
The indications are that the Ding
ley tariff bill will be reported to the
senate about the first week in May.
The subcommittee, which has been
going over the bill, has nearly com
pleted its work.

for His Victim.
Catarrh microbes are guests with a
proclivity for introducing their rela-
tives and another puzzling problem is
the management of children that are
always apt to catch cold, says the
Chautauquan. After months of sniff
fling and coughing the little patient
perhaps begins to complain of pains
in the throat; the trouble may result
in Group or something worse and the
alarmed mother makes up her mind to
take no risks IL she can help 1t. Out
ings are suspended altogether; in win
ter the windows are probably nailed
down to exclude every breath Of cold
air; but after all the youngsters can
not be expected to submit TO perpe-
tuity of indoor confinement Their
wistful looks as they linger about the
window suggest a desire for a change
of scene and their mother at last con-
sents to take them TO meeting or to
the new museum. But that expedient
is an appeal from demons to Beelzebub,
and a graphic humorist with a good
deal of hygienic insight describes a
crowded, over-heated meeting house
as a place where "Freddys cough
germs establish a colony in Tommys

A coUNTERFEITER CAUGHT.
The Police of syracuse Make IN In port
ant Capture.

On Monday the 18TH Harold Marquisee, OF
Utica, N. Y, was arrested in Syracuse, N.
", on "a warrant sworn out by the Dr.
Williams Medicine Co, charging him with
forgery. ,On the 18th Of December Marqui-
see visited a photo-engraver in Syracuse,
saying he was the representative OF the DIR.
Williams Medicine Co, and arranged for
the making Of a full set of plates for the di-
rectlon sheets, lables etc, of the famous
DIR. Williams Pink Pills for Pale People
News of this reached the home office, and
no time was lost in arranging for his arrest
when he should return for the plates. He
returned on the 18th and was accordingly
arrested and is now in jail in Syracuse
awaiting examination.
This arrest proves to be an important one
In addition TO various plumber, such as
medical books, typewriters, rugs, etc,
found in Marquisee's trunk when arrested,
the police also found counterfeit coin both
in the trunk and on his person; and in
a search OF his apartments at Utica found
complete outfit for counterfeiting con-
sisting OF crucibles, bellows, nickel lead
bismuth, anthony, "A small blacksmith
forge, charcoal furnace, and several
plaster of-paris molds. The United States
marshals want him just as soon as the DR..
Williams Medicine Co. are through with
him, and, no doubt he will be sentenced
for long period.
In selecting DR.. Williams Pink Pills for
his counterfeiting operations he showed
his knowledge of the proprietary medical
business for these pills are in such great
demand that they are easily sold at any
drug store in the United States. His scheme
was TO work the country druggists and sell
his limitations at a discount of from 2 per
cent To per cent, explaining the reduced
price by the fact that he had picked them
up in small lots and at a discount from
dealers who were over-stocked By work
ing fast and making long jumps, he would
have secured many hundreds OF dollars in
a short time. The proprietors of DR.. Will
liams' Pink Pills are most fortunate TO
have caught the rogue before he had fair
ly started, and to have thus kept these
spurious goods out of the market
