WHITE HOUSE CLOSED.
Painters and Decorators Busy on the
Mansion.

Washington, Aug. lowing to
numerous changes being male in the
White House, the building has been
closed entirely to visitors for sew
eral days, and will continue closed for
some time. This is disappointing to
many strangers in the city. The en-
trance for visitors, through the east
terrace, has been closed because the
boxes used during the social season for
hats and cloaks and wraps are being
taken down and improved. Stats are
being put in the back of the boxes so
that articles placed in them can not
fall out and become mixed with ar
ticles in other boxes. ;
Decorators and painters are still at
work in the east room, and in the hall
ways, and workmen are still cleaning
the stone floors in the vestibule and
Railways of the first floor. The walls
of the red, green and blue rooms are
covered with cloth and the furniture
wears its usual covering Altogether,
the White House is not what house
wife would call presentable now.

is A FINE SCHEME.
Brunswick viii Go into the Eight
Club League.

Ciup League.
The item from the Augusta Chron-
icle published in The News yesterday
relative to the Organization Of an
eight-club league for next season
struck the fans and the players of
the national game here in the right
shape and there is but little doubt
but that this city will be among the
very first to get into the scheme.
Of course high priced players could
not be engaged but many who are
really first class at the game would
go into lit merely for pleasure and
would ask only for enough money to
pay expenses.
From the present outlook 1t is safe
TO say that the league will be formed
and Brunswick will be in it, too.

srana Words From the Prairies.
rom the Kansas City Journal:

From the Kansas City Journal:
 It Is reported by the Greeley Republican that loco weed is unusually abundant on the prairies this year. Loco weed is a plant which sets animals crazy and even tually causes their death if it's use is continued. But the peculiar thing about 1t is the manner which 1t upsets the pop u1ar idea that animals have an unerring instinct which teaches them to avoid all foods which are harmful. When a horse or COW has once tasted loco it will waner over the prairies hunting for more of 1t and refusing to eat grass or any other food. When an animal has acquired the loco habit 1t quickly becomes emaciated and often 1t runs amuck like man made crazy by the use of morphine or whiskey. On the prairies the word ''locoed" Is ap- piled to men who are intoxicated or who have lost their minds, and it has moved on to the east. where 1t is doubtful if many knows its origin.

College Men in Politics.

From the New York Evening Post.
 Political life does not now so much lack educated men as it does strong men, whose honesty and good faith cannot be undermined and worn away by vitiating processes, either slow or sudden. Men are called for who can resist the argu- ment that everybody does' this or that which is vicious on it's face, but which has become less ugly in the popular judg- ment by reason of custom. This is the crying need of our public life. Can 1t be supplied by an appeal to college men as such? Doubtless it ought to be. but can 1t really? We greatly fear that the an swer must be in the negative. There are plenty of college men in politics today, and in many cases public life would be far purer if they were out of it. The col- lege men who turn to base ends the ad- vantages which they have attained arc not mentioned in any of the oratons, but we have living examples of them all about us.
 One reason, of course, Is that the men who may be intellectually fitted by their training for entrance into public life, and whose moral fibre is strong enough. are quite likely to find the door of admission locked and bolted by the bosses and the machine.
 It is obvious that no system of expert training will alone suffice. Ninety-nne per cent or our pOpuldtloIl, Sdlu LIT. Gark- hurst in his discussion of our municipal situation, care nothing for active, per- sonal participation in public affairs. Un- doubtedly this is true, but, for all that. they set the standards of public life. We need men trained to efficient public ser vice, but far more do we need a trained. devoted citizenship. Not all educated men can become leading figures in public life. Only a small majority have any ambition to attain such a position. But if educated men could be brought togeth- CT in a common impulse to raise political standards. the result would be far-reach- ing This, after all, is the real problem.
