SAT IN THE SENATE.

An Outsider Who innocentIy Made
Himself at Home.
The American people once elected
tailor to the presidency. and doubt
less many manipulatOrs of the shears
and goose have sat In the seats Of the
mighty by election. but only once did
a tailor make himself at home on the
floor Of the United States senate when
he had no constituency to represent.
The tailor was Hermann Moritz
Riedel Of Philadelphia, who visited
Washington in April. 1868 to attend
the exciting scenes during the i'm
parchment proceedings against An
drew johnson. fellow craftsman.
And this is the account Of how he
witnessed these proceedings as pub

going forward at the impeachment

kindness of his soul consented to fur
nish Teuton with the talismanic paste
board which effects the open sesame to
the senate chamber and also assured
our friend that he would accompany
him to the gallery and find him an
eligible seat. Muggins and Teuton
started to work their way In. but Mug
gins was detained outside Of the door
for n few moments. and our Germa II
friend went on and passed the yigilant
sentinels at the outer door and went
directly to the entrance OF the senate
chamber and was admitted by the
gentlemanly ushers under the belief
probably that he was member OF
congress and passed through the vesti-
bule and took his seat in the first va
cant chair and there remained during
the entire session In the confident be-
lief that he was entitled to the seat

Amarillo again: The Queen

Amarillo can easily give this for
a school Amarillo can give much
more for the establishing of a
great commercial industry.
SmokeStackS make bigger cities

and industrial city. which it truly
is, then Amarillo should quietly,
though earnestly, take up the
question of another big enter
prise here. 1t is not necessary
at this moment for the Daily
Panhandle to suggest what that
industry should be. That is a
matter for deliberate action of
the composite brain of the people.
What we would impress on the
city is this fact: Amarillo has
gained. not lost. in this contest.

Lawrence. Kan. June 9--Haskell in
stitute starts celebrating it's twenty
fifth birthday tonight, when the pu-
pills present for the public their first
performance of Hiawatha the great
Longfellow poem of Indian life, por-
trayed by Indians and in the original
native costumes.
The Indians have presented Hiawa-
tina two different years but never upon
such a scale as this year, when the
costumes to be used will be worth a
small fortune in themselves. The cast
has been carefully drilled and Henry
Roberts as "Hiawatha" is great.
This is but the opening round of a
full week of celebration and gayety
at the school for the Indians and the
authorities of the school feel that
they have much to be proud of in the
25 years of their history.
Former students of the school are
coming from all over the United States
and the tent city on the Haskell cam
pus which has been made ready for the
entertainment of the visitors will be
crowded before the week of gayety and
program is over.

LOOKING FOR RIFLES.
South American OnsciaIs Fear An
other Uprising.

New York, June 9-Secret service
men closely operating with diplomatic
representatives of the new administra-
ton in Venezuela are seeking in this
city the directing heads of an extensive
hlbustering project to smuggle 10000
rifles Into that South American repub
lie. with the apparent intention of fur
thering an uprising in the interests of
Cipriano Castro, the deposed president
according to the Herald.
1t is claimed that plot has been
discovered which has for its object the
overthrow of President Gomez and his
regime and the ranlifications of the
scheme led to various cities in the At
lantic and middle states 1t is under
stood that a quantity of rifles and am
muDition have already been purchased
In Chicago, Rock Island. ILL.,. and other
cities, and that now there are at least
sc. 900 rifles either in or near New York
city, ready to be shipped in the filibus-
tering expedition.
These assertions were brought to the
attention of the United States govern
ment by the Venezuelan minister at
Washington and Immediately secret SER
vice men were assigned to prevent the
departure of any such flibustering eX-
pedition.
John E. Wilkie, chief of the federal
secret service, arrived in New York
city yesterday and assumed the direc-
ton of his men. their information be-
ing that the leaders of the conspiracy
are here. According TO the Information
obtained by the secret agents of Vene-
zuela, 81 600 mas been subscribed by
a foreign interest in behalf of those who
seek to rehabiHtate Castro in power in
Venezuela.
The representative of a large New
York house, which in the past has fig
rred in such undertakings. went to
Paris early last month and thence to
Belgium from where. soon after his ar
rival a great quantity of rifles were
shipped to this country, passing through
the customs house here and being re-
shipped direct to St. Louis.
1t is now understood that these rifles
with others purchased in this country
have been shipped back to the Atlantic
seaboard, ready to be taken on by one
or more filibustering vessels.

projecting the lives of our citizens.
The cars that are allowed to stand
just south of Eighth street carry a
load of $4,000 pounds, and are kept
stationary by blocks of wood under
the wheels, and brakes set by mex
per1enced hands. Is it not reasonable
to suppose that through carelessness
they will some day lose control of
one of these heavily loaded cars, and
as consequence it will make mad
race down Jackson street, and in all
PROBABILITY meet, or overtake
Fourth street street car, which runs
regularly over this same track from
Fourth street to Sixth street When
you take into consideration the fact
that there is fall of AZ feet from
Eighth street to Third street on Jack
son, anyone can readily see that a
heavily loaded freight car started at
Eighth street, would attain a fright
fully high rate of speed by the time
it reached Sixth street, and a collision
of any kind would result in a great
loss of life. Why not lock the stable
door first this time?

JUST SAUNTERED OUT.
MORALLY Wounded Man Had a Mind
of His Own.

New York, June Eff he is not
dead. Thomas Smith is wandering
about somewhere with three bullet
wounds in his stomach, enjoying the
last few hours surgeons in the Har-
lem hospital give him to live.
Smith is the man who had a fight
on the roof of his house Sunday with
John McNally, who boarded with
him. After he had been shot Smith
chased McNally to the street,
dragged him five flights back to the
roof and was beating him when the
police came. Then he walked to the
hospital
The doctors decided Smith was
MORALLY wounded, but concluded an
operation might save his life. Smith
refused to submit to it.
Then, to the amazement of the
physicians, he put on his clothes and
sauntered out, no one knows where.
