Lincoln went forth to see the attack
by Early's troops on the northern
line of Washington's defenses at Fort
Stevens, and which has been occu-
pied as a summer home by other
presidents-is an oval around which
ten elms are growing. This oval is
bisected east and west by a brick
walk On the trunk of each of these
trees about six feet from the ground
is nailed an old grape basket, and
each of these baskets is kept nearly
filed with nuts and acorns. 1t is the
principal dining room of the Soldiers
Home squirrels-the squirrels mess

may be seen on trees in other parts of
the Soldiers Home grounds. but here
they are close together.
The Anderson cottage is pebble
dash-that is, the walls are. Squirrels
climb these walls and scamper up and
down as nimbly as they do the trunks
of trees. 1t seemed to the Rambler
that number of the squirrels have
built their homes somewhere back un-
der the caves of this cottage.

EKT ASHINGTON.-It was whispered,
w but the whisper was not absolute
ly verified, that the real absorbing
question before the Wilson cabinet at
its special meeting the other day was
that of delicate tonsorial policy, one
Involving the much-vaunted "Jeffer-
sonian simplicity" in it's inherent prin-
ciples and requiring razor-edged di-
plomacy in its treatment.
The intricacies of the Mexican stu
alton, the matter of patronage distri-
button, the subject of diplomatic rela-
tons with South and Central Amer
lea, the tariff, the currency and kim
dred topics all were shelved while
the cabinet members turned their
combined craftsmanship loose on a
pair of offending whiskers.
Secretary Redfield of the depart
ment of commerce is the owner Of the
hirsute appendages in question. With
one exception the other members of
the cabinet are as smooth-shaven as
was Jefferson himself Not one has a

tary of Agriculture, David F. Houston,
has very small mustache, SO spare
In fact, that it is barely noticeable.
Opposite President Wilson sits Mr..
Redfield at the foot of the great ma
hogany table, a position that makes
his facial decorations all the more
conspicuous.
The whiskers that tickle the fancy
of the cabinet are of the Burnside pat
tern. If allowed to grow a bit more
luxuriantly they would be famous
pair of Dundrearies. They lack the
swishing whiskbroom of Senator
Kern's beard, but are of a type that
might adorn with equal grace pros
porous banker or patent medicine
man.
When the Redfeld Burnsides loom
in sight their wearer might be taken
for a successful manufacturer, a re-
turned missionary or an advance
agent for a three-ring circus, for they
lack the umbrageousness and the eff
fulgence that so with the statesman's
cut.
In official circles it was. reported
that resolution was presented ask
ing that Mr.. Redfield detach himself
from the whiskers.
This report raised question in a
western delegation of how such tom
serial policy adopted by the national
administration might affect Col James
Hamilton Lewis in his contest for
election to the United States senate.
