I often wonder If mothers of little
little daughters appreciate what they are

There Is so much of this kind of talk that
the clear-eyed listner sickens In the hear
ing. While boys and girls are young they
should be comrades, playmates, friends;
but the possibility of a tender relation ex-

the heads of the innocent children. When

Pushes with self-consciousness or with
anger, the irreparable wrong has been
done. She will never again regard Jack
as the jolly boy who was great fun. .

kept in ignorance of the fact that they

period seems very far off to them. and
those who love them should keep them

WHITE HOUSE RECEPTION.
Innovations in Former Rules of Eli
Huette Introduced.

Washington, Jan. 19.-The first official
reception of the present administration
was given at the White House this even
ing.
Aside from the fact that it was the first
interest in the event centered in the new
method of distributing the invitations, so
that only a certain proportion of those en-
titled to the hospitality of the executive
mansion would be entertained in a single
evening. The plan, so far as could be
Judged from appearances, was an entire
success. While 1900 invitations had been
distributed and in spite of very rainy
evening, every one who was invited APP
peared. There was no crush in any part
of the house during the entire evening,
and the whole affair was considered to be
one of the most successful and largest
gatherings that have ever met at the
White House.
The reception party consisted of the
President and Mrs. Mckinley, the Vice
President and Mrs Hobart, the members
and ladies of the cabinet. All of these
were present except Secretary Alger, who
was still TOO i'll to venture out, and Mrs.
Bliss and Mrs. Long, each of whom was
represented by her daughter.
When the house party entered from the
upper han it was noted that Mrs McKin-
lev was leaning on the arm of the Pres
ident. reversing the rule by which the
President escorted the wife of the Vice
president and the latter the mistress of the
White House. The receiving party stood
in the blue parlor. Col. Bingham and
Tjeut Gilmore presented the guests.
The reception of the diplomatic corps
came first. Sir Julian Pauncefote, as the
dean Of the corps, led the way, but did not,
as is customary, remain to present his col
leagues to the President. The whole par
ty Of the British embassy continued 10 the
aast room and left the White House almost
irn,nediately Practically all the diplo-
matte corps were present, including the

ARMOR PLATE PLANT.
Secretary Long Before the Senate's
Committee on Naval Affairs

com m1ITee on naval Auu1rS.
Washington, Jan. 19.-secretary Long,
accompanied by Chief Constructor HIGH
born, Chief O'Neil of the bureau of ord
nance and Judge Advocate General Lem
ley appeared before the Senate committee
on naval affairs to-day.
The secretary said, in response to ques-
TONS that the navy department had pre-
pared full plans and specifications calling
for armor plate plant under the last ma
val appropriation, and that estimates OF
the cost of land tools and machinery nee
essary to equip the plant had been made.
The bids were to be opened on the 18th
inst, and he thought several bids would
be made.
Secretary Long said also that in view
of the report of the committee which he
had appointed to consider the question of
a government armor plant and the re-
port on the great cost and delay 1t would
involve, he had entered into further ne
gotatons with private armor plants now
furnishing armor for other ships and he
declared that he would make a contract
for the supply of armor plate for the llli-
nois, Alabama and Wisconsin, now under
course of construction, which would be
ready whenever the ships were ready TO
receive it, at the rate of 800 per ton. The
secretary recommended, in view of the
circumstances, that an arrangement to this
effect be made.
From the secretary's statements, cor
roborated by the statements of Commo-
dore Hichborn and Capt. ONeil, 1t appears
that the cost of a government plant
properly equipped, would be from $3,500,O00
to $4,000 600. He said that this estimate
included all the machinery for making
armor plate, guns and projectiles, and
added that if the government adopted the
policy of providing it's own plate, no
armor could be expected from such plant
for about three years. The committee has
taken no action on the arrnor plate matt
ter and it is considered probable that the
whole question win receive attention in
that direction.

listened to with the closest attention.
Members crowded about him, and the
throng in the galleries leaned over to
catch his words. AS he concluded a roar
of approval swept the floor and the gale
ries.
Mr.. Dinsmore, Dem, of Arkansas, of the
foreign affairs committee, declared that
the time had come for giving the Cubans
the recognition they had so long sought.
He arraigned Mr. Hit and the Republi-
can side for alleged inconsistency citing
their cuban speeches under the Cleveland
administration, and then branched off TO
tariff, civil service bimetallism and va
rous other topics Returning to Cuba,
he declared that no act of this govern
ment could bring war with Spain, for a
bankrupt monarchy which could not put
down 5000 ragged Cuban soldiers, would
not enter upon a contest with the United
States.
Mr.. Adams, Rep, of Pennsylvania, a
member of the foreign affairs committee,
and chairman of the Subcommittee on
Cuba, followed Mr.. Dinsmore and con-
trasted the inaction and apathy of the
last administration toward Cuba with the
achievements of this dwelling particular
ly upon the release of all American pris-
oners in Cuba the change in Spanish war
methods and the abandonment of the pol
icy of concentration. He maintained that

ed We were seeking to free Americans;
they are now all free. The whole ques-
ton is nearing a conclusion of its own
weight. Spain is bankrupt, and she can
not send another man to Cuba. There
are riots in Havana. The handwriting
has appeared on the wall"
In reply to direct question as to why
his subcommittee had not accepted the
Senate resolution. he said that the com
mittee had called for official information.
We cannot rely on newspaper reports
when we see in this city the two sides
of this question presented by different
newspapers"
Mr.. Berry, Dem, of Kentucky, elo-
quently pleaded Cuba's cause After 500
600 Cubans had gone down to their death
during the last four years, he said that it
was absurd for members to stand on the
floor of the House and deny that a state
of war exists on the island to-day.

piled Mr.. Berry.

gents. the committee rose, and al o'clock

ChIef Clerk Bailey Proposes a
Change in the Grouping.
Washington, Jan. 19.-When the investi-
CATION of the civil service by the Senate
committee was resumed to-day, Chief
Clerk e. .. Bailey of the chief examin-
er's office of the civil service commission
advised a general Redistribution of the
government offices. The present grouping
he described as accidental, based on sal
aries, while he believed it should be based
on the kind of work done. which would
be Of great advantage in preparing ex-
aminations for applicants.
Asked as TO extension of the civil service
made by the order of May g. 1896. he said
that brought in 5000 additional positions.
The largest number Of offices brought in
by a single order before that was 900 by
President Harrison 1900 by President
Cleveland.
The commission on May was not pre-
pared to meet these sweeping extensions,
and no eligible list had been prepared prior
to that date for those places. and then.
too, there had been many temporary an
pointments, caused by lack of eligibles.
