During the short time / have been in

that you possess big, generous hearts, ready
always to extend a helping hand TO the
needy and suffering among your fellows;
the object lesson of the greatest printery

to the relief of their brother workers in San
Francisco, is a high tribute to the open
heartedness and liberality of the members
of the government printing office force;
you can derive no more pleasure from the
satisfaction of aiding those in distress than
] do at the great privilege and honor 1t Is
mine TO enjoy as head of this representa-

You are gathered here this evening to
testify in a most substantial manner to the
high esteem in which you hold one who has

heart that the future years may hold the
Not Dumping Ground.
1.-The printing and binding trades through
out this country have felt that the gov
eminent printing office was something of a
dumping ground for printers and binders.
and that the whole force was largely de-
moralized by political influences which did
not tend to a proper production of the work,
either as to quantity or as to quality.

An Equivocal Apology.
From Tit-Bits.


When John Scott Lord Eldon) was at
the bar he was remarkable for the sang
froid with which he treated the judges. On
one occasion Junior counsel. on hearing
their lordships give Judgment against his
client, exclaimed that "he was surprised at
such a decision" This was construed into
contempt Of court, and he was ordered to
attend at the bar next morning. Fearful of
the consequences, he consulted his friend
John Scott, who told him to be perfectly at
ease for he would apologize for him in a
way that would avert any unpleasant re-
suit Accordingly. when the name of the
delinquent was called, John rose and coolly
addressed the assembled tribunal:
81 am very sorry. my lords, that my
young friend has SO far forgotten himself as
to treat your honorable bench with disre-
spect; he is extremely penitent and you
viii kindly ascribe his unintentional insult
to his ignorance. You must see at once
that 1t did originate in that. He said
he was surprised at the decision of your
lordships. Now, II he had not been very
ignorant of what takes place at this court
every day-had he known you but half as
long as have-he would not be surprised
at anything you did"

Office Cat for Rebate.
From worlds Work.


A fertile-minded agent now one of the
widest known life insurance officers in the
country. was trying to sell client policy
on which the agents share Of the FIRST pre-
MUM was $500. The client desired the
policy. but he waited rebate of 81 1000.
and this the agent was willing to give. The
agent was casting about in his mind for
some method of hiding the rebate, when the
ONCE cat-they were in the clients office
CHANGED to rub purringly against his leg.
He looked down at the cat and his method
was ready.
What a beautiful Angora cat!'' he ex-
claimed gravely. my wife loves cats.
She'd be tickied to death to have that one.
I'll give you $1,000 for it,
. The client assented. and the policy was
taken. Receipts were exchanged. the cat
was Gagged in the waste basket and wrapped
up. and the agent went away with Tabby
under his armand no rebate law could
touch him.

After leaving Judge Lindsay's court
room the Grand Jurors returned Ia
their quarters in the throne room and
resumed business In q very energetic
manner.
Chung Nee Hing, another very prom

he is often seen with a bag Of ready
cash baillng out unhappy fellow Celes,
tials who have been placed in durance

gambling laws.

and All Hoo, the wealthy liver stable
owner, whose gorgeous luaus few

this afternoon. The famous Halter re
port is understood to have contained
many interesting yarns about both

both indicted and charged with brib'
cry and extortion, but the cases
against them fell through.
The Grand Jury is not only direct

up the issue OF whether the police au

Hitchcock as Muck-Raker.

Secretary Hitchcock, perhaps the
most unpopular man that ever held
cabinet Office, is one Of the best work
ers and probably the most efficient
muck raker on the presidents staff.
While Attorney General Moody and
James Randolph Garfield have met
with doubtful success in most Ct their
bounding of the octOpi Hitchcock has
gone out after the land grafters in the
Western states and has sent barrels to
penitentiaries. A senator and ..repre
sentative went down before him, and,
as to common varieties of land sharks,
his victims are without number. Many
indictments are still pending, but the
chances are that Secretary Hitchcock
will land them all before he gets
through. And no government official
has had half the odds to contend
against that Hitchcock has in this
crusade. Several senators have fought
him in every possible way, and strong
friends of the president have tried to
poison his mind against the secretary
of the interior.
