Senator Calls proposition for a con-
RressionaI investigation of the circum-

Just before the Christmas holidays, as
in this case, and a visit to the Cuban port
in the winter season is not without it's
attractions. The proposed trip, how
ever, rather disturbed the Spanish min

learn whether the investigation was
proposed with ~peaceable intent.
Secretary Foster listened to the ex-

How Two Little Children Went on the

The cherubic insistence of

forms and customs were strikiDgly
illustrated at the capitol h other day,

tots, aged about four and six, were
trotting around after some ladies, and
in the crowd got separated from their
natural protectors. The children
paused in front of the north entrance
to the house and looked in through the
doors as they swung back and forth,
then one said: Maybe auntie went in

Four pairs of hands reached for the

legged representative who was just
ahead of them. He stopped in the door
and began to demonstrate with them,
but, with childish impatience, they
tried to push him aside, and not being
able to do so, thrust their small heads
between his legs, n after the other,

After the Result of the Election Had
Been Announced.
The favorite hat worn by Abraham
Lincoln was a tall "stovepipe." 1t has
been described as n foot high, with q
brim almost as wide as a southern som-
brero. Many anecdotes are connected
with hat famous tall hat. In it Mr.. Lin
coin carried many of his valuable pa
pers, the briefs of his law cases and
other documents, says the Youths Conn
panion.
On the night of Mr.. Lincoln's election
to the presidency several ladies who had
gathered at the old homestead at
Springfield testified their glee by using
the hat as a football.
A few of us went to assist Mrs. Lin
O about the supper which was 10 be
given some gentlemen who had come
in to hear the returns. 1t was after mid
night before enough had been learned
to warrant the belief that our candidate
was elected. We went nearly wild with
Joy and congratulated Mr.. Lincoln most
heartily.
Some one saw the famous ~"stovepipe"
in the hall, and, Selling it, threw it up
to the ceiling. Another caught it, and
then it went the rounds till it fell on the
floor, when one gave it a kick and then
another and another rave it a send off
till it was so battered that 1t had lost
all resemblance to its original shape.
Mr.. Lincoln looked on and smiled good
naturally at the childish performance.
