Senator Hoar's jokes as a rule take

very well knew the people who would
hear him understood only Hebrew.
Therefore, he felt that he must de-

A WEEK IN
WASHINGTON
What is Going on at
the Capital.
GLIMPSES OF STATESMEN
Personal Notes and Anecdotes and
Views on Current Politics
And Affairs.

WASHINGTON, d. c., Feb. 26.-The
change in Bryan has been a matter of
wide comment among public men in
Washington during his visits here the
past two weeks. Manners and meth
DDS OF the boy orator have disappear
ed. The feryor of the crusader has
gone. There is no longer any 'ene-
my's country" The enthusiasm of an
alleged holy cause has been displaced
by a cool, calculating, polite policy,
which seems strange, associated with
Mr.. Bryan. In his latest visit to
Washington the candidate was closet
ed by turns with silver Democrats,
sound money Democrats and POpu-
lists, and seemingly he made himself
agreeable to each in turn. II strive
to please" never had better exemplifi-
cation in politics. In 1896 Mr.. Bryan
was frank If anything. In 1900 Mr..
Bryan comes nearer being all things
to all men than any one might have
supposed was possible with him.

which the Kansans in Washington

pers of that city would applaud. They
presumed that Chicago wanted the bill

would keep still and let it go
through" Hopkins was mystified, but
after consultation he and Uncle Joe
concluded Ito beat It anyway" The
fight was continued and the considera-
ton under suspension of the rules was
refused. When the Chicago papers
came two days later Uncle Joe and
Hopkins looked for the expected lauda-
ton for their protection of Chicago's
interests. One paper only seemed to
consider that there was anything in
the matter to warrant bouquet throw
ing and that paper gave all OF the
credit to Mann.
Second Place With Mckinley.
1T would kill me in two years" Gov.
Roosevelt wrote to. an intimate friend
in Washington respecting the Office OF
vice-President. The mental incon-
gruity of the chief of the Rough Riders
handling the gavel through the de-
Lucrative proceedings of the Senate
impresses all who know the man and
the place. To do is the Roosevelt
motto. Not to do seems often the con-
trolling rule in the Senate. In execu-
tive Office Roosevelt chafed. AS Assist
ant Secretary of the Navy he could
hardly be kept within what the Pres
ident and Secretary Long felt to be
bounds. When his hands were tied
Rooseyelt's tongue would go. Once
when some Incorporate speech was
reported to the President. with the srg'
gestion that it ought to be noti0ed. the
calm reply was. Il think not. We may
need this hot blood later on" Roose
welt has his place. He is an admirable
character in many respects, but he is
totally untitled by temperament for
presiding officer of the Senate. No
where is this better known than In
administration circles. 1t is fact that
the suggestion. the inspiration OF the
talk of Roosevelt in connection with
the second place on the ticket did not
come from the White House. The ori-
gin was a feeling among some prom
inent Republicans. who were thinklns
Of possible gain in strength to the
ticket by the selection of Roosevelt.

may not be concluded until the second
session, but it appears probable the
President will have the additional
member OF his official family before he
enters upon his second term. Among
other members OF the Cabinet there is
an impression that the new place may
be filed by transfer and that the va
cancy 10 be supplied from the outside
may be in one OF the old secretary
ships. This impression is prompted
by the fact that the Cabinet now in
cludes a member who, by the common
opinion Of his colleagues, would make
an ideal Secretary Of Commerce This
member is Secretary Hitchcock. His
twelve years residence and engage
ment in mercantile life in China, his
diplomatic service as Ambassador at
ST. Petersburg, his long connection
with manufacturing industries in this
country, these all go to make him quail
fled to discharge the duties OF a de-
partment which will be one OF the
most important In the Government,
and which in it's organization and
formative state will call for just such
experience and information as Mr..
Hitchcock possesses. To the new de-
partment will be transferred some Of
the most important bureaus OF the
Government, including several which
are now attached 10 the secre-ary's s
department, that Of the Interior.

ing the talk of those who express them
selves in the speech of educated peo-
pie" writes Margaret +. Sangster, in
the September Ladies' Home Journal
Thought lies back of speech and the
more subjects interest us the more
command of language we shall have in
which to describe them. They who
read scientific books will have grasp
Of scientific terms. They who discrim-
mate nicely and use the very best word
to say what they have in their minds
will consult Il dictionary and see what
are the similarities or the contrasts of
certain words; will chose. as among

will not be satisfied except with the
exact word which can express precisely
the meaning the wish to convey. The
reading of good authors lifts our vo-
