There is one gentleman in the joint city
and county building who has had very
narrow escape from publicity and scan
dial. Because, had he been detected, all
manner of excuses would have awaited
him not. He would have been held up to
public scorn ana his picture would have
been in all the papers, and the people
would have said: Il never would have
thought it of him."
81 @ y
This gentleman is a mild, peaceable in
dividual. quiet in demeanor. suave in de-
pertinent and correct in habits. He takes
paths, which is an evidence 81 enlighten-
ment on his part, and is visitor al Salt
air.
One night this week he,went down for
a bath and got room 40. There were no
Incidents connected with this event. 1t
happened the next night, when he got AZ,
the adjoining room.
After coming out of the water he went
to the dressing room and entered. He
thought the key worked a little hard, but
wondered little, being engaged in blissful
contemplation of the shower bath he
would take. He eXtricated himself from
his damp bathing suit with that difficulty
which ATTENDS the operation and with
which we are all familiar, and then en-
joyed himself under the shower for ten
minutes. Then he came nut and rubbed
himself dry with the towels. Then he
ana amazement ne struck a corset. His
first thought was that some ore had hung
= lot OF lady's garments over his clothing.
But on looking around he found lot
polonaises and skirts and-well, other
clothes, and then it dawned on him that
he had made mistake. He examined his
key and found that instead OF AZ, he had
entered the room he had, the preceding
night and had struck the bath room Of a
lady.
Then came the suggestion: What if she
should come and find me here? Me, a
man with a reputation. wife and family,
This was followed by another thought:
Suppose she is here with her husband and
he is large, tall, broad-shouldered man
with fist like ham and bad DISPOSE
ton?
Then other thoughts came, but they are
too numerous to mention. Suffice it to
say that this man climbed back into that
damp bathing suit and got into his own
room and again disrobed, took shower
bath and dried his form with dry towels;
Just as he was leaving, the lady entered
her own apartment
As he was leaving his room a thought
occurred to him that she had nothing but
wet towels, and perhaps 1t would be well
to get her some dry ones but discretion
got the better part Of politeness, and he
didE't.
If this meets the eye of the lady who
found wet towels in her dressing room.
and who is evidently aggrieved at the
management, she can rest assured that it
was no fault of Colonel Clayton, or John
T. Meakin, or any other person, but was
due TO the mistake of an innocent. we'll
meaning man, whose heart contains no
guile and who was so badly scared when
he found himself in such predicament
that his hair has turned from bonny
brown TO silver gray, and in whose mind
the recollection of those terrible moments
when he struggled to get back in that wet
bathing suit before discovery will live
and flourish, yea, though he live thou
sand wears.

fuller information concerning the Havana
tragedy showed no abatement to-day, and I'M
verified and sensational reports were listened TO
and discussed In the dearth of official or accu-
rate intelligence. Happily, these reports were
received with scant credence and were re-
jected soon as the frail foundations on which
they appeared to rest were discerned. Fortu-
nately. too. Congr essmen, as rule continued
in waiting and expectant frame of mind, and
seemed resolved to withhold any expression Of
opinion regarding the causes OF the calamity
or the responsibility for IL until after a thorough
investigation had been made and full and trust
worthy information had been obtained.
Without distinction of party, all OF them whose
opinions would carry weight seemed willing to
rest the case in the hands OF the proper author
tiles, with full confidence that the investigation
would be a thorough and searching one, and
that It's results would be laid before Congress
as early as practicable
