Patterson-Carmack Contest.

Sundays Commercial APP
peal contained the following
article concerning the Patter-
sOn-Carmack contested cleo
ton case from its Washington
correspondent: Definite news
in the Patterson-Carmack
case may be expected by the
middle of next week. Rep
resentatives kirkpatrick and
COchrane of the sub-commit-
tee are out of the city, but
will return Monday, and
Chairman Walker said to-day
he felt confident the report
will follow soon. 1t is believ-
ed the report has been prepar-
ed, but its import is being
kept profoundly secret. Col
Patterson is confident it
will advocate seating him
On the other hand, it is
almostthe unanimous opinion
among the Democrats that it
will go certainly no further
than to declare the seat va
cant. Should that be done
Mr.. Carmack would stand
for election at the special cleo
ton, and is confident that he
would be returned.'

this daily recess is a revela-
alton. At first he is dazed;
anon interested, and in many
cases captivated. He sees
we'll known statesmen in a
light entirely new, and if
gifted with wit and repartee,
winds up with becoming a
member of the inner circle
himself and contributes to
the fund of enjoyment.

Cloak Room Stories.

Washington Correspondence GIobe-Democrat.
The cloak rooms are two
coy little hooks adjoining
the hall of the House of Rep
resentatives. One is patron
lied by Republicans and the
other by Democrats. They
are really the private boxes of
the legislative theater. Their
doOrways command good
views of the chamber and
galleries and of the faces and
figures of the actors. With
in these boxes electric lights
shed a soft radiance, and sofas
and easy chairs invite weary
representatives to sweet re-
pose. In winter a cheerful
wood fire is ablaze on a tiny
hearth adorned with a mantel
of variegated marble. Around
this ingleside gather a few
choice spirits who light their
pipes and cigars and solace
themselveswith quaint stories
and "reminiscences, while the
drowsy hum of dreary discus
sion is heard in the House.
The Democratic nook was a
favorite resort, in days long
past of Gov. Andy Curtin,
sunset Cox, Charles F. Crisp,
Davy Culberson, John r.
Fellows and scores of states
men of more or less Ienown.
,iamuel J. Randall, William
:. Holman, Fernando Wood,
and men of that ilk had no
use for the cloak room. Life
was too serious a matter for
them. Whatever of verve
and vivacity was about them
was reserved for post-prandial
speeches or club room Sc
ances. They tabooed levity
while in the House, and went
% far as to hang their hats
and overcoats in their COM
mittee rooms in preference to
the cloak room. The habitues
OF these coy hooks are men
whose dispositions are streak
ed with sunshine, who relieve
the strain of legislative work
by opening the safety valve
of mirth. To them an hour
in the cloak room is like re-
cess to a schoolboy. Figura-
