The efforts on the part of members oi tle House to pin one another down tc direct answers reminded Representativ, Capron of Rhode 1sland--one of the best story tellers in the House, by the way of an experience, in Lne last campaign says The Washington Post. MT. Capror was very much bothered while making a speech by a man in the audience fho in- sisted on asking questions to which he dem 4nded either yes or no" Tor ar answer.
 But there are some questions" finally remarked Mir. Capron, which cannot be answered by yes or mo-"
 'I should like to hear one," scornfully commented his annoyer.
 Well l' sad Mir. Capron, T think l can prove it. Have you quit beating your wife, Answer yes or no"
 The crowd saw at once that Mir. Capron had the man in trap. If he said "yes'' 1t was q confession that he had been beating his wife: If he said mo it was an admission that he was still indulging in the pastime.
 "Yes'' or no shouted everybody in the hall, and in the midst of the confusion the man made his escape.
