to light a story of pension office doings

ton on the fence, or as Commissioner

cessor Of Commissioner Evans. and It was
telegraphed from Topeka that he had
been summoned" to Washington to con-
fer with the prisedtn, wag IN the bureau
took occasion TO mention in the presence
tiated as professional welcomers." that
Representative Peters would arrive by the
$40 train the following afternoon adding
a bit OF strictly inside information"
One clerk, noted for the ease and grace
with which he has vaulted the barrier on
numerous occasions during the last quar-
ter Of century, not being familiar with
the appearance Of Mr.. Peters hurried to
o downtown photograph gallery. where
portraits Of statesmen are sold singly or
enmasse, and proceeded to study the line
aments Of Commissioner Evans probable
successor. The next day at noon the
wise ones individually furnished Up their
stock Of excuses, and, selecting the least
time worn of the lot, repaired to their
respective chiefs and secured leave sor
