In uxplmmtlon of thin iitutoiuont I cminot do bottor than to toll you of it ftiw of tlio tilings which 1 raw mid hoard ilurliitf uslnglo day's nun Die nlioiit tho capital. On my way tlown town in thn morning I saw in front of tbo palatial ronidonco of tlio nchost limn In tho aoimto Mr. Stanford, of Califor nltv a llttlo old chap with a coonskln hat on htn head mid it mnllo on Ida woazonod fiu'O dnncing it jig mid whistling "The MockitiK Uirtl." Tlio old follow wiih tho proprietor of a hand organ, which, under tho iiutnipulatlon of an Italian, wiih at that very moment grinding out "Johnny Got Your (tun," Kvury morning for wookft I hiivoMcou this samo porformauco going on tn front or Senator Stanford' honxo. and on Inqiilry I loarnod that tlio aentttor is u xtoady etistoiner of this tun nioal bngado, and that every morning ex cept Sunday ho throws out ilfty conts to tbo llttlo old tninntrol. Sonator Stttn ford's tavorito air is tho ono which I hnvo jnst mentioned mid it In never omitted from tho moniing programino. Not far from Sonator Stanford's, be fore tlio hotiso of a tnombor of tho oabinot, I saw a carrlago standing, tho drtvor on the box fant aaloop. 1 know the John front Imiulrios which 1 havo tuad occanton to make of him concerning tb whoronbonU of his omployor, and so I stopped and woke him tip, fearing that tf caught itnloop at bin post bo might got lato trouble. He had drivon up at 0 ta the morning to take "Mr. Secretary" to his office in the "ofllco carriage " An office carriage, the nnlnitiated should know, Is a vohiclo ownod and uialntaiuod bj the govomruont for tho uno of cabiuet ministers. Undo Sam buys tho outfit, keeps it tn hln own stable and biros tho driver and othor holp. Tho driver of an official carnago is about tho hardest worked man I know of in Washington. His cab Is usod for all sorts of purposes, not only by tho cablnot ministor, but by the mom born of his family. Tho first thing tn tho morning is to tako tbo sec retary to ntn dully toil. Then soino of tbo ladios of tho family want to go shop ping At I o'clock tho socrotury must rw driven to his luncheon, and tbo after noon is put in racing about tho city making social culls. After dinnor thore is a theater party or evoning reception, and tbo ladles of tho family must bo waited for. Ofton a ball koops thorn out till "i tn tho morning, but it does not matter how late tho hour, tho official carnago must lo at hand tho niomont it in wanted. No wonder my acquaintance, tbe driver was fast iwleep on his box. 'It is pretty hard work," said ho, as I woke him up: "hard on tbo horses and nardor on mo. During tho wintor wo keep two paint of horsos for this car nage and wear them both pretty well out oflforo summer. I do all tho driving." At noon I called ut tho war dopart moot to noe Secretary Blkins. 1 found nitu ui the corner of u largo and mag nificent apartment, a callor on ono side of him ami a stouogrnphor on tho other. rilK BTItKKT, THR BUI'HEMH COURT AND TIIK CAIIINKT. Mr, Blklnn boat all tho workers ovor seen ih tho war department. Evor since bo came into otlico bo has had tbo ouay-, going amr loinuroly subordinates of his office, who have liecome accustomed by yeara of exorionce to a careful avoid ance of haxtu. bustle or oxcitomout in the tninwtction of tho public businesu. slttiug on teiitor hooka over Ills inothodH of work Secretary rjlkiim will see about thirty cafTors in an hour and make every ono believe ho has had a ton minutes conversation. Pn my way to tho Cupitol 1 saw on tho street onei of the well known figure of Washington It wifa to all uppbiiruui'o: thetlguruof a man who bad just come in fromihe country diut riots and had a clean have and was out seeing tho sights. Out in fact it was Chutruian Blount or the foreign affairs committeo of tbe house who wan brought conspicuously before tho public oyo by the Chilian Incidont. .Mr lllniiiit whc good mo use nnd good Judgment, m well as his patriotio spirit, men of all p.trtloi are prainlng, uovor hai any liusliii".s lriinactloiis with tail ors, and it is nitld could never bo prevailed uM)ii to wear a drest suit. When ho goes out Into nocioty, wlileh Is rarely In deed, lie dons mi old fashioned swallow tail, proli.ihly left him by hln ancestors, which, though hardly up to tho latest stylo, answers very well ror a dre.si gar ment, In Congress Mr. Blount wears always a ready mado suit of clothes which could not have cost more than twelvo dollars, and on tho ntreot ho may bo picked out of a thousand by tho way in which ho wears hln soft felt hat well tlown over hln oyes mid tlpjwd jauntily to ono side, Blount in one or tho very fow men who havo had it long career in congress nnd finished up with more money than they had at tho start. Tho nblo Uoor gian liolieven In living within one's in come no matter what his station In life and It in said ho has saved iUJ,000 a year during tlio eighteen years ho has been a member of the house Careful invest ment of these savings has mado him a tolerably well to do man, and tf tho mjo pie of his district conclude they don't want him any moro after twonty yearn of service, which in very unlikely, ho will have something to fall back upon besides tho doubtful prcHttgo of being an ox congressman with a constitutional Ina bility to make a success of anything else lu tho world, as Is the case with most of the men who retire from a public caroor of any groat length Seeing Chairman Blount ambling along reminded a friend of mine, with whom I walked up the aveiiuo, of a story alxmt the somewhat fainons dinner given by Seuor Montt, the Chilian minister, about six weeks ago 'I was at that dinner.' said my friend, "and it was lu some re spects the limist dinner I ovor attended in Washington, Wo were positively em barrassed by tho profusion and richness of tho dishes, Everything which an urlt tocratlc caterer could think of to swell tho cost of a dinner had boon provided. And an to wine we could no moro than take a sip of each or the kinds served. It was Indeed a sumptuous dinner, but thin is not what I wanted to tell you about. After the coffee, when tho gen tlemen had retired to tho smoking room tho conversation partook of tlio nature or a discussion or tho Chilian situation which wan at that tiino rather threaten ing. Wo then saw tho strango incident or a United States senator making a llt tlo speech In ravor of tho Chilian sldo of tho caso, his remarks being applauded by other senators as well as by ovory ono olso present. All this was as a mat tor of courtesy to tho host and hostess. and was not Intended to bo taken sort- THREK tNTERESTINO SLIDES. oasly. Senor Montt understood it nil, but Mmo. Montt. who knows but little English and who is of nn oxcitnblo tem perament, bocamo vory much ugitatod She shouted a huzza to hor nativo coun try, doclarod that if war between the United States and Chili ovor startod she would contribute to tho cause of hor countrymen not only every cont sho had in tho world, but hor sorvicos as an army nurse, and by way ot peroration brought out a littlo Chilian (tag and wavod it en thusiastically ovor tho bonds of hor guests, who applaudod hor with clap pings of hands." It was a dull day In tho houso and sonato, and I saw very littlo in oltliei end of tho Capitol worth montioniug, unless it might bo additional ovidcuce that tho lomou is bocoming tho favorite adjunct of congressional oratory. In the houso i saw no fowor than (Ivo members use u lomon instead of a glass of water whilo making a speech, and during the course of a half hour's talk on tho rules Mr. McMilliu usod up two or three lotuons. In tho sonato Mr. Coko, of Toxos. bad tho honor of introducing the lemon stylo of oratory, and now a large number or senators moisten thoir lips with tho acid juice of this fruit whilo making sot spc-echos. In the supremo court tho scones wore as impressive as usual ami a largo num ber of visitors wore present. To the strangor tho supremo court is awo in spiring. Ho is nfraid to whisper to his neighbor, and n smilo ho would ox pec t to bo punished for with instant death Everything Is very solemn In tho su premo court. Even when Justico Gray, who had been out lato at a dinner the previous night, fell asleop and actually Biiorod while a lawyer rrom Chicago was arguing tho citso or tho anarchists, no person in all that courtroom dared to permit tho faintest shadow of laughter 'to come upon bis face. When the court hud adjourned that nftornoon and the justices bad taken oil their great silk robes and put on thoir overcoats and bats. Chief Justice Fullor mado a novel proposition to Justico Blatchford. "It is said, Blutchtord.' remarked tho chief justice, "that no man has ever walked from the Capitol to' the White House on tlio south side or Pennsylvania avouuo Suppose you and I' make that jonrnoy this afternoon''' Blatchford agreed, mid a few minutes later people on tlio avenue were Mir prised to see the two justices walkuu; for.u mile and a hair on that side nf the thoroughfare which edcstriaus invari ably desert for tho moro attractive shopping side.

I for years havo lived a life of utter soli tuilo to disprove the generalization. , Those mountain hermits can bo found I scattered through the Sierras nnd tin Coast range from ono end of tho state to tho other. They aro particularly I numerous through this region, centering about the osomlto valley and oxtend lug far back Into tho high Sierras. Some or them were onco guides in tho valley, othors havo been minors mid soino again seem to havo taken up tht lire or solitude simply bocauso they like It, To this clavs belongs old P, It. Gibson -"Old Gib," as ho is gonorally cnllcd who lives on a mountain ranch not fat from hero. Ho In so vonty-fl voyeurs old, but Is ik)shoh8o1 of as much physical strength and ondtiranco as tho average man or hair his ago. Ho came here thirty yearn ago from Tonnesseo, where ho left a wife and a largo family of chil dren. One of his sous came to sco him recently and tried to Induce him to visit his fonuor homo, but "Old Gib" stead fastly refused to loavo bin littlo ranch and solitary cabin. Ho has novor seen a railroad, ami tho stage drivers from tho noarost station try tholr utmost to persuade him to go to town and at least look at a train of cars. But his inva riable answer is, "Do you think I'm go lug down there to bo blowed up by one of them there blamed engines? Not mucul" Nearly all tho men who Uvo this life of solitude very long got a bit iueo in tho head, and "Old Gib" is no exception to tho rule Ho liana rigmarole descrip tion of himself which declares that ho le "tho best man in the United States or ad joining territories, either directly or in directly, tliiancially, commercially, ec cleslusticalhuir unchurchiflod." Tho old man In a hard worker, and whon ho is not busy on ids raiuli lie In working enorget ically making "shakes;" that Is, clap boards split and suwod by hand from bi pine trees, Old man Lambert, who has a cabin in tho high Sierras soino twonty or thlrtj miles back or tlio Y osomlto, Is nnothortir the mountain hermits. Ho has neither ranch nor mining claim, but liven by what ho shootn and by nn occasional few dollars earned from camping parties. He has lived alone in that samo spot fci years and years, and will in nil likeli hood stay thoro until ho dies. , Thoro are months at a tiino that ho docs not sco an other human being. A party of campers last summer found him making a huge stono wall that seemed to havo no pur pose whatever. In surpriso tboy asked him what ho was piling up thoso stones for. "Why," ho said, "a man's got to do something, up hero ulono, or ho'll go wroug, suro." Flokkncb Pinch-Kelly. Mr. Wllllo Wilde. New York, Fob. 11. 1 saw Willie Wildo, the husband of Mrs. Frank Lcslio. tho othor day, and ho chatted pleasantly with rao for un hour or moro. Ho is a big. strong, haudsomo man of middlo ago. Soaring this In mind, ono could appro ciato tho forco of tho sarcasm against himself whon ho said: "Yes, it seems 1 am doomed to tho un flattoring fato of novor boing myself. First I was Lady Wildo's son, then Oscar Wlldo's brother and now last, but not least, 1 am Mrs. Frank Leslio's hus band." Whilo he talkod 1 was watching him and thinking what a mistako tho papers had mado in representing him as too young for his wifo. i was thinking that if I wore Mrs. Wildo 1 would not let him bo callod "Wllllo." but plain old "William," for thoro is much in a nnmo. Mr. Shnkospearo notwithstanding. In discussing Amorican writers, .Mr. Wildo said: "As a writor of short stories wo English liko Frank Stockton. I con sider 'Tho Lady or tho Tigor' tho best short story ovor written. I mysolf am reputed a writor and tollor of good stories, but 1 loft off all my own to tell 'Tbo Lady or tho Tigor' as long as there was a listouor in London who had nut heard it. 1 fell into tho habit of asking tho ladies at tho ondof tho story. 'Well, which? and was much amused and edi fied by their answers. Of thoso 1 kopt 11 kind of annotated record, or plobiscito. which I finally sont to Mr. Stockton, and which was the beginning of a most charming correspondence between us. 1 nm exceedingly anxious to meet Mr Stockton." Wo wore interrupted by u roportor who wanted tho biography of Bobeo. Mrs. Loslio's lovoly littlo Yorkshire ter rier. "Poor Boboo," her mistress said, stroking tho littlo silken haired creature as sho dozed in hor basket tn tho suu sbino. "Poor llttlo Boboo, oven yon must suffor tho ponalty of being your mistress' dog, They havo already ac cused you of wearing silk ulsters and shoes and stockings, saying that your lazy and oxtravagaut habits aro tho re sult of tho example sot you by nn idle mid oxtravagaut mistress. Thoy surely do not know, Bobeo, that you and I aro two plain, hard working creatures, earn ing our bread and paying off dobts wo did not contract: that you givo up your velvet footstool mid l my velvot lounge at homo, every ono of thoso cold early mornings to come down to this dreary office, a cotton pillow and mi tuicush lotted chair for the day. I boliovo every thing lias been written about hor," Mrs. Wildo went on, turning to tho rojiorter "I feel so hurt and so sorry for nil foinitli creatures who are subject to tlio world's criticism that 1 would say a good word for oven this littlo dog." But tho reporter thought what sho had just said about Be bee's w'ardrobo win something now and interesting, making notes to that effect So runs the world away. Bkli.k Hunt.
