Major Mckinley, as they were on their
way to the capitol, turned the corner of
Fifteenth street into Pennsylvania ave
nue., at the southeastern end of the

while 1T lasted one of the four spirited

citing performance on his hind legs
This tended to excite the other beasts.

him to his feet, while other caught the

Coachman Beckett wrapped the reins
around his gloved hand and sat cool ano

brewer leaped from the footman's percl

at the time, neither appeared in the
least startled and continued their con-
versatiOn when the fallen wheel horse

Fathers Futile HerOism.

Millvjlle, \. j., March THE little
village of Bivalve is in mourning TO day
over the shocking death of a year-old
daughter of Elihu Reed and the destruC
ton of his home by fire last night. Mr.
Reeds three child rem were playing
around table when accidentally knock
ed over a lamp Within a minute th.-
whole building was in flames. The
father was lying on a sofa and quickly
jumping up he carried two of the chill
dren to the yard, but when he rushed
back for little Bertha the whole build
ing was cracking and the little child,
whose screams could be heard, persisted
in the fire. When she screamed "Pa-
pa Reed, with a burned face and
hands, rushed in the burning building
but by the quick assistance OF neighbo. s
ne, too, was saved. Wringing their
hands, father and mother nearly went
wild with grief. Little Bertha was one
of the favorite children in the village
and was considered very bright for her
'ge. The blackened bones of the little
one were found In the ruins this morn
ing.

AFTER stating, says the Harrisburg
Patriot, that the appropriations of the
Fifty fourth congress are 81 ,04S, 437 ,01S,
Chairman Cannon, of the appropriations
committee, says, "the appropriations
are, In my judgment, in excess eff the
legitimate demands of the public SER
vice" Mr.. Sayres, of the minority of
the same committee, makes the total ap-
preparations of this congress s54, ,197,-
S12 in excess of the Fifty third con-
gress; s16, 6S2, 40 over the Fifty second
congress, and S7,757, ,9OS in excess of
the Ffty-first congress.
1t was the Fifty-irst congress that be-
gan the Billion Dollar Country" stvle
of extravaganza in appropriation, partly
to get rid of the surplus in the treasury
which had for long time been heavy
argument against high tariff. Any
thing and everything that asked money
got it and pensions were given a new
BOOM These extravagances not only
cleaned out the treasury but, with other
extravagances, saddled the Democratic
congress with fixed charges which could
not be reduced nor left unpaid. Mr..
Cannon, in his remarks on the appro-
priations, endeavors to add to the Demo-
cratic figures he quotes in various ways,
but he says nothing about expenditures
compelled by previous Republican legis-
lstion.
The Republican congress has gone to
utmost limit in spending the peoples
money and is fioundering about for ex-
cuses. billion dollars is an oulra-
geous sum of money to be spent by one
congress in an endeavor to show that a
certain tariff law does not produce de-
sired revenue. 1t is shameful extrava-
gance for a more shameful purpose
with all the fixed charges created by
Republican predecessor the Democratic
congress showed how economy was
practical and it practiced economy.
There was o hing to prevent the Fftv-
fourth congress doing the same thing,
that is nothing which a patriotic con-
gress would find preventive. But the
Fifty-tourth had something beside econ
omy in view. There is high tariff bill
to be passed and the necessity for #
must be made somewhat apparent. The
people are being robbed 10 glut the ra-
Iacity of the Republican machine.

NOTWITHSTANDING the fact that libel
suits have been brought against Rev.
DIR. Swallow, of Harrisburg, editor of
the Pennsylvania Methodist, by GER
tain state officials, there is much un-
easiness in official circles over the out
come. There is growing fear that DIR.
Swallow knows more than has been gem
orally anticipated 1t is rumored that
private detectives had been quietly at
work for some time and that DR.. Swal-
low only formulated and made public
his allegations after he felt confident Of
his position and in expectation OF ac-
tions for libel. Instead of recanting or
showing a disposition to modify his
charges, Dr. Swallow has practically re-
peated them as strongly, if not strong
er, than before in an open letter to Gov
ernor Hastings, published last week.
DIR. Swallows allegations, which he
said he was ready to substantIate by
evidence, and which the actions for Ii
bel will require him to do, if he can,
are in substance as follows: That per
sons have been paid money out of the
state treasury who rendered no service
to the state: that persons who did rem
der service were asked to sign receipts
for two, three and four times as much
money as they received; that new metal
furnishings have been paid for by the
state and the old furnishings cleaned
and made to persOnate the new ones;
that articles furnished the soldiers Or
phan schools cost the state eight fold more
than reliable bidders asked; that repairs,
changes and alterations in the capitol
buildings, grounds, executive mansion
and Grace Church (where the legislature
now meets cost the state many thous-
ands of dollars more than they should
go to the persons furnishing the mate
rials and labor; that there sis convinc-
ing evidence of criminal carelessness and
neglect on the part of state house Gus
todians, and, presumptiye evidence of
criminal intent in the destruction by
fire of the state capitol building; that
valuable furniture and furnishings
bought for the state are now in use in
private homes without any compensa-
ton for the same having come to the
state.

nounced his policy regarding either pres
