AT nearly every session Of the Gen
eral Assembly some patriotic veterinar-
ian expresses his willingness to serve
the state for a consideration, provided
that there is little labor connected with
the post. None of them has ever been
successful in securing an acceptance OF
his magnanimous tender. The latest
evidence Of lack of appreciation of such
tenders is found in the action of the
Senate in killing the bill for the estab-
lishment Of a State Live Stock Sanitary
Board. The dispatch and unanimity Of
its action was highly creditable

EAsTERTTDE FESTIVITIES.

Eastertide brides are a goodly contin-
gent this year. There is a regular ava
lanche of the blushing specimens of
womanhoOd, proud groOms, maids, ush-
ers, frOcks and flowers. Favored, as
Easter week always is for weddings, it
has rarely brought such an array of
matrimonial events as this year.
Society generally will enjoy another
brief season before the hot Summer
days. There will be number of
dances and parties, and the theatres
will likely do a big business.

Congressman Shattue, Of Ohio, is an
other Western freak. He has nomi-
mated to a cadetship at Annapolis a ne
gro boy named d. ]. Bunday, and in
spite Of the protests of his colleagues in
the House demands that the appoint
ment be made When told that the white
cadets would resign, he said:"Let them
resign and be d-d!" The milk in the
cocoanut is that the Congressman has
$4,000 negroes in his district, and he is
willing to sacrifice the interests of the
naval service and the standing of the
Naval Academy to get the good will OF
his negro constituents.

A FAYoRITE wITH MRS. M,KINLEY

Just why the Vanderbilt carriages are
so often at the White House has puz-
zled a good many people who daily
pass through the grounds, writes a
Washington correspondent. II was
known that the family is in deep
mourning and sombre black liveries
are worn by the coachmen and foot
men, and neither Mr. nor Mrs. Van
derbilt have visited since they came TO
Washington.
There is a little Miss Gladys Wander
bilt, however, not over a dozen years
old, to whom Mrs. Mckinley has taken
fancy, and the little lady comes to
the White House and entertains her
self and Mrs. Mckinley two or three
times a week. She is accompanied by
a maid always, and the footman
stands at attention under the port CO.
chere while his mistress is inside. The
Vanderbilt carriages are the finest
ever seen in Washington, and Miss
Vanderbilt comes in different one
every week. The red brougham is the
prettiest of the lot, and seems more
suitable to a little girl than the big
barouche that she frequently drives in.
