DETROIT. September %, 1902.
The stay of the District of Columbia del

teresting incidents. Monday evening Past
Corps Commander Lee NJ. Lipscomb, ac
complained by Col. John ]. Duffy and sew
eral other Washingtonians. called at the
residence of Governor Bliss to pay their
respects, under the belief that they were
calling on former Governor Pingree, who
was known to Colonel Lpscomb in Texas
years ago. When a servant answered their
summons at the front door Col. Lipscomb
asked. rs the governor in?''
The servant responded that he was. but
had retired for the night
Just tell him in the morning" said the
colonel, that a bunch of Spanish war vet
Grams from Washington, including Lee
Lipscomb. formerly of Texas, called to pay
their best respects to him.
Before the servant could reply the voice
Of Governor Bliss was heard at the top Of
the stairway:
SHOW the gentlemen up, john
The party proceeded upstairs and were
received by the governor, who was en- dis
hebile in his bedchamber, he sitting on the
edge of the bed.

comb in the dim light OF the room, I'VE
have called to pay our respects to you, and
addressing you as a Texan as we'll as
Michigander allow me to say, sir that a
Texan is man all the time. You are not
only Michigan man. sir, for Texas claims
part of you. However, governor you are
national notable and we all claim you
Governor Pingree."
BY this time Governor Bliss was blush
ing deeply. He thanked the delegation for
the call and then explained nicely as pos
sible that he was not former Governor Pin
gree and had never been a resident Of
Texas. A good laugh followed at the colo
nel's expense and the Washington party
retired in good order
On Sunday forenoon, President Roose-
welt was leaving the Hotel Cadillac for
church, he spied sitting in the hotel lobby
lame soldier wearing the blue and gray
uniform of the Spanish War Veterans. The
veteran held a crutch before him. Darling
away from his escort the President ap-
preached the soldier, and. extending his
hand, exclaimed with much cordiality:
How do you do my comrade."
A hearty handshake followed and the
President spoke a few pleasant words to
the injured soldier. who was smiling radi-
antly, and quickly rejoined his party.
The soldier thus honored was Mr.. Marcy

MOrEan's Kindness.

London, March 3l.-J. P. Morgan's ia
nous painting by Raphael 1.-THE Madonna
of st. Anthony of Padna), from the Col
onna gallery, is attracting considerable
attention at the National gallery here,
where all corners may see it free.
Commenting on Mr.. Morgan's kindness
in letting the picture hang in a public
gallery for six months. one paper re-
fleets somewhat sadly upon the fact that
he paid more for it than the British ma
lion ever gave for a single picture,
though, instead of paying 100000 pounds,
the National gallery was offered the pic
ture years ago, at humble price, which it
refused to pay 1t is said that the pic
ture will probably remain in Mr.. Nor
gan's English home after it is withdrawn
from the National gallery.

TRADE REPORT.

of Trade last week. says:
Favorable weather greatly facilitat-
ed eastern retail trade, the volume Of
transactions in all lines of wearing ap-
parel being of exceptional magnitude.
Activity was by no means restricted to
the specialties, however. the general
distribution Of merchandise exceeding
that of previous seasons, with prices
well maintained. A distinct evidence
of the vigor of legitimate trade is
found in the decline of only 21.4 per
cent. In bank exchanges at New
York, notwithstanding the fact that
transactions at the stock exchange
were not more than a third of those
in the corresponding week last year, at
the other leading cities. clearings ex-
hibited a gain of S.S per cent over last
year and 31.5 per cent over 1899.
A demand for an eight hour day af-
ter May l by the blast furnace men
was the most disturbing feature in the
iron and steel industry, and this is not
causing much alarm, as an agreement
will probably be reached during the
intervening month. Production is now
beyond all previous records, and the
movement of coke is ample, although
the early opening of lake navigation
