Wonder Goes Forth to Conquer
New Worlds.

Boots Repett champion of gaStron-
omy in the region foreninst the navy yard,
took a whirl at an uptown food emporium
last night. and before the vat which he
carries around in lieu or stomach was
filled the free lunch counter in said en-
porium was swept clean, the ice box was
emptied and the cook was hiding in fear
in the basement.
Repetti went forth in search of new
fields to conquer and no herald went be-
fore to give warning to the purveyors of
food. He was accompanied by two
friends, whose chief duty it was to count
the various articles which vanished down
the champions throat. The trio stopped
in Harry Haight's Hotel, in E street
northwest, and while the regulars
stared in open-mouthed wonder Boots
of sausage, a loaf of bread, a fistlul of
celery and dish of onions from thel free
lunch counter, and then by way of an
appetizer ordered four drinks of whisky
and a gallon of beer.
Having thus prepared for his real din
ner. Repetti wanted to know how many
oysters the establishment had on hand.
Learning that there were only seventeen
bushels on the ice, the food-destroyer
woofed his disappointment and gave still
further evidence of pique by ordering only
sixty fried for his evening meal

he is to eat at one sitting the entire food
supply for the day of 800 marines-or a

Sought Department Position.

1T was expected that in the change
from democratic to whig rule there would
be many dismissals in the departments
In the new departments many applica-
tions were filed and among the seekers
for a position was Abraham Lincoln of
Illinois, who had just concluded term as
a representative in Congress.
The commissionership of the land office
was his aim and as he had done yeoman
service on the stump ne and many OF ms
friends were sure of his success. A clerk
of Mr.. Ewing had charge of the applica-
tons and soon the pigeon holes In his
desk were well filled.

Mr. Lincoln that the clerk placed box
on the top of his desk to receive them.
Mr. Lincoln came in frequently with a
bunch of endorsements which he dropped
in the box remarking: The pile is grow
ing, boys and asking when the place
would be filed.
I'm a few weeks a messenger came
from Mr.. Ewing, in the cabinet meeting,
for all the papers relating to the commits
sionership. The clerk hastily bundled up
the Endorsements of each applicant, but SO
many had Mr.. Lincoln filed that only
portion of them were sent to the White
House. The consequence was that Mr.
Lincoln's application was turned down.
much to his chagrin. He went at once
to see about it, inquiring If certain in
dorsements had been considered. and as
certained that neither the Secretary nor
the President had heard of them.
Mr.. Ewing made an inquiry at the Of
fee and found the missing papers The
clerk explained that in his hurry he may
have left them in the box. He was trans
ferred to other duties.
"Both the President and Secretary, It
is said, offered Mr.. Lincoln another posi-
ton, but he declined and returned to Hi
