COMEDIANS TALK ON POLITICS.

From the New York Sun: The most
popular of this years crop of campaign
jokes seems to be one sprung at the Vic

Gus Rogers starts in by saying that it

"Why?' inquiries his brother.

At every performance when his joke
is sprung McKinley's name is received
with loud applause. In fact. at all of

more loudly cheered than a joke that IA

TO WATCH The CENTURY OUT.

Bishop Charles B. Galloway, Of Balti-
more, has sent out the following official
document to the various Methodist
churches in the South, calling on them
to make the last night Of the year
twentieth century watch night:
GAS president of the board Of educa-
ton Of the Methodist church, South,
suggest that on Monday night, the 31st
Of December great Methodist watch
night service be held in every church
Of our vast connection In the interest
of the twentieth century fund. The
last of the year and the last Of the CEN
tury ought to be made memorable.
Watching a new year come in and
new century dawn, should be a momen-
tous occasion, like the wonderful spirit
ual feasts Of early Methodism. On Sum
day before in all the circuits and coun-
try places let twentieth century servi-
ces be held and thank offerings laid
upon the altar Of the church. In all
villages, towns and cities the greatest
feast should be on Monday night Of
watching and conservation. Addresses
should be delivered in those previously
on the various triumphs and develop
ments of the now dying century, and
an appropriate sermon preached and
grateful offerings made, closing with
a prayer Of conservation as the clock
strikes IL, and then the jubilant ringing
Of Methodism's thrilling night watcn
hymn:
Come let us now our journey pur-
sue,' etc.
"Then, with an exchange Of new CEN
tury greetings, we will go out under
the baptism Of another Pentecost to
achieve greater things in our Lords
wonderful tomorrow.
Brethren Of Southern Methodism,
let us make this great watch night an
other such spiritual scene as was wit
messed in that historic love feast in
Fetter Lane, London, January 1, 1889.
II so, the glow and glory will abide
through the century"

THE CITY Of WASHINGTON.
Facts Suggested BY the Centennial CeIebra.
tion Wednesday.

On last Wednesday, December II. was
celebrated with elaborate ceremonies
the one hundredth anniversary of the
day when the United States govern
ment took formal possession Of the
city of Washington as the capital of
the nation.
Washington had population of 5000
in 1900: S,2OS in 1910; 1874 in 1920; the
census just completed showed it to
have a population of 2S6,000 in 1900.
In the first decade of the citys his
tory the government officials numbered
fewer than 100. Now there are nearly
15,O0O including the clerks in the va
rious departments.
Washington is now five miles long by
three miles wide. The District Of Col
umbia contains about sixty square
miles, and all of this territory is now
being laid out with magnificent ave-
nues to comprise greater Washington.
Georgetown, now a part of Washing
ton, was laid out in 1761. It Is across
Rock Creek from Washington proper.
Georgetown University, the first edu-
cational institution Of the capital, was
founded by Bishop Carroll in 1899.
The cornerstone of the White House
was laid on October 13, 1892. Had con-
gress appropriated the money asked for
last winter, the cornerstone Of the new
White House addition would have been
laid this week.
Work on the Capitol was begun on
September 18, 1893. It's centennial was
celebrated seven years ago.
The Capitol is the hub of Washing
ton, from which most of the avenues
radiate like the spokes of wheel.
After the destruction Of the Capitol
in 1914, the Thirteenth congress held
sessions in the Union Pacific hotel,
which was built in 1703 and burned in
1886.
It was expected that the best part OF
Washington would be built on Capitol
Hill. Hence the Goddess of Liberty on
the Capitol dome faces eastward. But
the most fashionable part of the city
is in the opposite direction, in the
northwest.
The terraces of the Capitol were COM
pleted only in 1891, the total cost OF
the building footing up $14,455,OOO.
New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore,
Reading, Germantown, Alexandria,
Georgetown, Harrisburg, Lancaster,
Carlisle, Trenton, and other towns
wanted to be selected as the capital.
But George Washington chose hepres-
ant cite oD tha Potomac.
Washington had municipal govern
ment from 1902 to 1871, then terrific
rial government until 1874, since which
time it has been controlled by congress
through three district commissioners.
The government temporarily aban-
doned Washington in 1914, when the
British captured the city, partially de-
stroyed the Capitol and the White
House, and blew up the arsenal at
Greenleaf's Point.

army officer and engineer, laid out the

confined himself to watching the young

the way Sweetwater wound himself
out and in through that room, seeing
everything and examining everything
that came under his eye, was sight

tion. Pausing before the dead man on
the floor. he held the lantern close to
the white. worn face. "Ha" said he,
picking up something from the long
beard. Here's a crumb Of that same
bread Did you see that. Mr.. Knapp"
The question was 80 sudden and 80
sharp that the detective came near re-
plying to it: but he bethought himself
and said nothing.
"That settles which Of the two
gnawed the loaf" continued Sweet
water.
The next minute he was lowering
over the still more pathetic figure Of
John. sitting In the chair.
"Sad! Sadr he murmured.
Suddenly he laid his finger on q small
rent in the old mans faded vest. "You

quick glance over his shoulder at the
silent detective.

THE Woes OF THE DRUNKARD.-Could
one dip his pen in fire, and experience
the agonies of the lost, he might por-
tray the woes Of the inebriate. Drunk
enness is the parent Of every evil
known to man. 1t is one long, impet-
uous, awful career Of anguish and
death, disease, insanity, imbecility, re-
morse, crime, and a Gehenna Of un-
speakable suffering and remorse. That
man is capable of such degradation and
self-elected woe is one Of the certain
proofs Of hell. Such life Is hell. Men
who defile the body, dethrone reason,
pollute the spirit, transform themselves
into devils, suffer the woes Of perdi-
ton in two worlds.
Language on this theme can never
exaggerate or equal fact. In the heart
of every city is literal, an awful pam
demonium. The crime of Civilization Is
that it not only tolerates, but legalizes
it. It authorizes men to poison their
fellows until homes become dens Of
vice and crime, until parents become
criminals, until children are cursed
with poverty and cruelty unspeakable,
and existence becomes both for the
drunkard and his family nothing less
than infernal.-New York Observer.

SYNOPSIS OF PREVIOUS CHAPTERS.
In order that new readers Of THE EN-
QUIRER may begin with the following
installment Of this story, and under
stand 1t just the same as though they
had read it all from the beginning, we
here give a synopsis of that portion OF
which has already been published:
The story opens with the close OF
ball after daylight in the morning.
While the guests are leaving the house
Frederick Sutherland dashes out fran
tically and disappears in the woods on
the other side Of the road. Agatha
Webb is found up stairs murdered.
The body of Batsy, the cook, Is found
hanging from a window. Philemon
Webb, Agatha's husband, is discovered
sitting before dining table asleep,
with a smear Of blood on his coat
sleeve. Philemon being charged with
the murder, his mind, alrady feeble
gives way completely. All Agatha
Webb's money has been taken. Miss
Page, standing on the lawn, points to
spot Of blood on the grass. Frederick
Sutherland, who has been a wild fel-
low, promises mis- father to reform; also
to give up Amabel Page, whom he has
been expecting to marry. Miss Page
tells Frederick that she followed him
on the night of the murder and saw
him secrete $1,000 in hollow tree. She
declares that he shall either marry her
or she will proclaim him murderer.
She is about to leave him and the town
when she is held as witness. The
past life Of Agatha Webb. Six children
have been born to her and all died in
infancy. It is learned that the money
taken from Agatha Webb was all in
new bills. A Storekeeper produces one
of them that a strange man with a
flowing beard gave him the night of the
murder. The problem now Is to find
the man with the long beard. Suspic-
ion falls on the label brothers. Fred
erick visits the hollow tree and finds
the money gone. Wattles gambler
from Boston, demands $3.50 of Freder-
ick in payment of a gambling debt.
Frederick secures a check for the
amount from his father, pays the debt
and is about to leave home when he is
stopped by Miss Page. Knapp, detec-
tive and Abel, with the coroner, visit
the label brothers. They are obliged
to break into the house, and find both
brothers dead.
