Wo quote f mm the Kxeehior: It was atout ton o'clock ono night Inst week and I wub in th6 midst of an arti cle on wheut in tho Chicago Tribune. 1 read up on anything about.) Tho generous pages ot that groat dally paper protected my face from tho heat ot tho grate (Iro which wub toasting my fcot very comfortubly. J. must niBo confess that I was smoking my annual cigar, which I put down in eonio alarm when I hoard u stop on tho Siazzn, followed by a hurried jork at tho oor boll. Somowhoro olso in tho Trib um I hud just read of n banker who had been ovorpowerod by tramps at his own door, which ho opened himself at u lato hour in answer to a call. So I inquired what was wanted before I turned tho latch. "It's n rojx)rtor for tho World-Herald and docs Mr. C. C. Chase live hero,"waB tho reply. That sounded plausible and I invited my lato visitor in. , "Ib this Mr. ChaBO himself?'' ho in quired adding, "You don't look afl if and men nrciiKing on as no knocked tho snow from his hat and Buy ing, "Well wo havo had n telegram from Lincoln about you, as there Ib u report there that you woro dangerously III you don't look dungerouflly 111, slrl" This wub highly interesting to mo. I invited tho young man into my study and having but my ono cigar olTorod him a box of cigarettes, which ho polite ly refused. Then wo sat down and I said: "Do I look sick?" 'You appear to bo in tine health," re plied tho reporter and then, apparently reassured as to my condition, Btiddonly said: "Woll, I may us woll show you tho tel mmim. ua I think vou will bo interest ed." Ho unfolded a bit of "nowa print" such as is used in newspaper ofliccs and handed it to mo. It rcuds as follows: State Journal Omen, J. Lincoln, roi)., foil. ) WorliMlornld. Omnlin. ..,....

Jomeh, This was u pleasant piece of nowa to break to n man nt his own homo nt ton o'clock of a winter's night. I looked at Mr. Reporter and ho looked at me. Then we both smiled and I remarked, "I don't understand it. I do not think I am deranged. I know I havo not had tho grippe. I have never been seriously ill in my life." Then I thought a few moments while my visitor contemptuously eyed tho ci garette. "It must be Borne other 0. C. Ohaso oh," hero it Hashed over mo and I buw a chance for revenge, revenge for many misunderstandings, for bills luid on my desk which did not belong to mo, for let ters received which were very sweot and tender but signed by girlish namea I know not of, for postngo paid on under stamped letters relating to hogs, and cattlo, and missing freight curs, and all that sort of thing, till of which after I had once sot on tho right scent I had re-addressed and sent on tnoir way to Mr. C. C. Chaso, traffic manager of tho Q. H. Hammond Co., South Omaha. "It may bo," I Baid, slowly, "that tho 0. C. Chase who lives up in Kountzo Placo has had an attack ot tho grippe. You might hunt him up." Iknowflhe fellow would do it, und I bowed him out with u smile. "" It worked to a charm. I telephoned down to Hammonds tho next morning, and inquired for C. C. ChuBe, Ho wub not in just then.but they Bent his pretty typewriter to tho phono. At leust I sup- pose she is pretty her voice was. "Is Mr. Ohaso ill?" I began. "No sir; not that I know of," she re plied. "Do you happen to know if a man came out to Iub house last night to in quire after his health?" "Woll, I bollovo I do. That man got him out of bed after midnight to ask him if ho was deranged,' (with a laugh.) "Then Mr, Chase is not dorungodY" I inquired solicitously. "No, sir. Hoacts awfully funny some times" came tno laughing answer, "but I don't thing ho is dorungod." That Bottled it. I had only beon as tonished out of u comfortable column in my Tribune, My doublo (whom I havo not yet hud tho pleusuro of meoting)was routed out of a comfortable bed to an Bwor a ridiculous inquiry. I suppose ho has it in for mo, I certainly havo it in for that man Jones of tho Journal and that's ono reason that takes mo to Lin coln this week. I am looking for him. employment of somo kind pufllciont to keep him and his family independent of charity. Mr. Hobard sajs that this Is true. Hut it is not work that these poo pie want. They want charitable dona tions. Ono day last week sovo'ral men entered ono ot tho banks and asked for money. Bach wan told ho could earn fifty cents by cleaning tho Bnow off tho sidewalk. In ovory instance tho offer was refused- iffilllll f? ' Many people havo wondered why Mayor Weir should havo waited until March 1 to commence his moral crusade. Tho reason Ib not difficult to lind. Tho mnyor Iiub all along manifested a blttor hatred for Frank Wutors, pollco Judge, and it Ib clear that it is his purtioso now to muulpulato his moral crusade to tho projudlco ot tho tmlico judge, who is a candidate for renomination. Wo pro diet that it will not be many weeks before tho mnyor will bo charging his failure to make Lincoln as pure as tho beautiful snow on J ml go Waters. Tho following summary is made of Congressman Hryun's hill to punish crooked bankers: Tho bill applies to tho president, director, cashier, teller, clerk or agent of tho national banking association who willfully misapplies nny of the moneys, funds or credits of tho association, making him guilty ot a felony, and punishing him with an im prisonment ot not lessthunilvo nor mora than ten years, if tho amount is under 8100,000 in value, and not loss than ten nor moro than twenty years li tno amount Ib above 8100,000 In value. Tho bill covers forgeries of every character ot bills of exchange, bonds, drafts, mort gages, judgments, etc., and includes bookkeepers, collectors, otc. There is a genornl impression that this bill simply applies to stealing money. It applies to fraud and falso certificates and all sorts of decoption in connection with tho man agements of national bunking associa tions, whereby thoso interested iu them arc made to lose money. It 1st lino moro stringont provisions are adopted for tho punishment cf dishonest buitk officials, and Mr. Ilrynn's bill, or something like it, ought to become a law. ' Ono of tho provisions of tho Hrynu bill is as follows: "And persons arrested under this act shall receive no other or bettor trentmont or grcntor privileges whilo in custody, before conviction or after conviction, thun is accorded to per Bons in custody for violation of other lawB of tho United States." True manliness was exemplified in Frank L. Hathaway, whoco death is re ported elsewhere. His strong moral na ture wub proof against tho weaknesses which are common in young men, and ho led it singularly pure and upright lifo, respected by every ono who know him. Considerate, tender hearted and with a healthy lovo for lifo, ho was yet strong willed, and ho was always true to himself and his character. Ho wits a manly man, und his friendship was an honor. His was not a demonstrative nature; but ho was thoroughly appre ciative. His aiTootionfor his family Und his friends wus intonso, and ho found much pleasure in delicate manifestations of his regard.

In business ub in till olso ho was tho sumo, upright, thoughtful, considerate. Tho personality of a famous" man can at times bo brought dolightfully close to ub, and this is particularly true of tho picture wo get of Nnthaniel Hawthorno in his youngest daughter's description of "My Father's Literary Methods'' in tho March Ladies' Home Journal.

N tho whole range of tho diplomacy of all tho nations of Christendom, I do not believe there can bo found an instnnco where a policy so disastrous to its own Interests wan over inflicted tiou n nation by its own officers as has been inflicted by G rover Cleveland and Walter Q. Uresham upon tho United Slates Iu regard to tho annexation of tho Hawaiian Islands It brings humiliation to every patriotio citizen, und the resolution re cently passed by tho national house of representatives, sovircly arraigning Minister Stevens and charging tho over throw of Queen Lil and her government to him and to Captain Wilt of tho cruiser Boston, in the climax of national disgrace. The resolution Itself Is tho concentration of falsehood and misrepre sentation. Tho blind and unreasoning partisanship of tho democrats of the houso in thus vilifying American officers ot high rank surpasses belief. It is said Captain Wiltz, ono of the must elllclont officorB of the navy, went to his grnvo with a broken heart because of tho pull ing down ot tho stars of glory iu Hawaii by Paramount Blount, and the falso statements reported by him to tho Wushlngton government, nnd put in cir culation in. tho United Slutes by Cleve land, Greshum and thoir followers. Tho course of this peculiar udininis trution respecting Hawaii presents a black pago in our history, and it in a reversal ot all tho traditions and policy ot the democratic party during its long lease of tiowor prior to 1801. It hud always favored tho acquisition of now territory whonovor it was possible to obtain it. Jefferson inaugurated tho policy of annexation when ho purchased by tronty tho territory of Louisiana from tho first Napoleon, and it was ono of tho grandest achievements of tho cen tury prior to tho civil wur, and who re grotB that great ovont now? When Franklin Piofco was president, James Buchanan was minister to Bug- land und General Dun B. Sickles, now member of congress from ono of the New York city districts, was tho secretary ot legation. Pierre Soulo, who hud been United Stntes senator from Louisiana, a very eloquent advocate, next to Rufus Choato in oratory in my opinion, was minister to France. I do not now recall tho name ot tho Minister to Spain, but these threo American ministers, with Sickles, mot in Ostoml by a pro-arranged plan of Uio American secretary of state, William -M. Murcy, of Now York, und hold u Bcciot conclave, tho purpose ot which was to initato somo plan for so curing tho annexation of the island of Cubn to tho United States. But the project becoming' noised abroad, a florco tempest was fa I Bed iu Spain nt tho very mention of tho schomo, and it wub abandoned. But the democratic party was in favor of it, und bo was Secretary Marcy. Ho wub thoroughly an annex ationist. Ho was secretary of wur under President Polk during tho Mexican war, und ut its cIobo hud much to do with securing tho conditions of tho tretity with Mexico by which California and all tho vast territory accompanying it wore annexed to tho United States. And who regrets that great'evont now? 1 1 wus under democratic auspicos that the then independent nation ot Texas wub annexed to tho United States, and who regrets that groat ovont now? During tho presidency of Andrew Johnson, William II. Seward, then Bee rotary of state, negotiated a treaty with Russia for tho sulo ot Alaska to tho United Stntes. And who regrets that acquisition now? Truo, it was not brought about by tho domocrutic party; but ub it party it mudo no opposition to tho measure, if I remember rightly. There was no enthusiasm in tho country over tho measure, tho islands beiutr ro- iiireo -exquisitely g(mlc-(1 wll(1( tomuio vcgon wny ,, toward tho Arctic ocean. It was, how ovor, looked upon as'itn important point in enso ot naval operations in that sec lion. Tho development of tho seal fish eries there has rendered that acquisition ono of grcut vuluo. When tho treaty whs before the somite for ratification, Charles Sumner was chairman of tho committco on foreign relations, und hud charge ot it. Ho advocated ratification with remarkable earnestness nnd power. Ho mado a most eloquout und brilliant speech. Old son utora who hud heard him often pro nounced it tho greatest speech ho hud over delivered. Unfortunately no record wub kept ot it, us reporters uro not ad mitted in executive scssious, and it was thus lost to tho world. I voted for tho treaty, tor i urn naturally an annexa tionist, believing tho United States should take jiosscssion of all tho country which offers itself to us. This in our duty, for wo uro living under tho best government over created, und it is only right to desire that other people should enjoy tho samo blessings with ourselves. Somo threo years utter this trans action an extraordinary inconsistency on tho part ot Sumner and others who earnestly advocated tho ratification ot tho Alaska treaty, developed itself when President Grant sent to tho sonuto tho treaty for tho annexation of tho island ot St. Domingo, which hud, by order of tho president, been negotiated by his secretary ot state, Hamilton Fish, with President Baoz of tho republic, Senator Sumner and his Immediate friends at tacKcd thin treaty iib fiercely and with as much verom as they hud earnestly zealously fought for tho annexation ot Alaska, and it was defeated. Tho ihm session of that Island would havo been ot inrntimable advantage to tin an it naval and coaling station, and an it safe hurbor of letugo from storms in tho Cnrrlbhcun sou. It in rich in tropical fruits, und In tho production of sugar and molasses. Tho country and climate nro admirably adapted to tho conditions and wants of our colored txipulutlon hud tlfoy desired to emigrate to that country. I nover could seo tho consistency In purchasing tho apparently barren Island of Alaska 2,000 miles distant in tho northwestern ocean, and rejecting tho purchase of thw island of St. Domingo, so lmMirtant to I us for military, naval nnd commercial purtocs, and laying at our very doors. But tho explanation of these apparently contradictory )Ksltioun I imagine, wan this: A most bitter quarrel had grown up between Senutor Sumner nnd Presi dent Grant, which involved nearly till tho republicans ot both houses ot con gress, und well nigh Involved tho poiioo of tho republican party. Tho cause of the estrangement between theso two great republican leaders during that period grow out ot tho course pursued by J. Lothrop Motley, author of the history or "Tho Dutch Ropubllc," who had been appointed minister to England by Genornl Grant at-the urgent solicita tion of Mr. Sumner. Motloy had spout most of his lifo in England in association with the aristocracy, and had become pretty nearly Anglicised instead of Americanized. Sir William Vernon Harcourt, tho present chancellor of tho exchequer under Gladstone, and a pros pective heir to his place us louder of tho liberals when Gladstone shall pass away, had married Motley's daughter, and his affiliation with tho English was marked. His relations with Sumner were ot tho closest kind. Ho seemed to think it his duty to confer with him, as chairman of tho nonnto committee on foreign affairs, as to tho concerns of his mission more than with the piesldcnt through his secretary of state. There wub friction at onco us a consequence, which grew into tho pr6ortionp ot a disastrous political quurrol between Grant and Fish on ono side, und Sumner and Motloy on tho other, which severed friendship and alienated feelings between friends which had been tho growth of years; but which could never again be restored. Grant und Fish charged that Motley virtually ignored them and re ceived his inspiration from Sumner. That condition of things could not lust, und tho result was that Motloy wub re called. Thin mado Sumner extremely hostile to Grant and Fish, so much so that all intercourse botwoon them ceased. Sumner being ehulrman of tho committco of tho sonato on foreign affairs, it wub vory embarrassing for tho president and secretary of state" to hold official intercourse with him, and still more bo, social intercourse. This strug gle continued, neither sldo showing any signs of yielding. At tho noxt session of tho senate the committees woro re organized, and Sumner wus displaced from Ii'ib old chairmanship, which almost broke ills heart. This affair, together with bin domestic troubles, tho separa tion from his wife, made him a changed man. Not long afterwards, Charles Sumner, tho .great Massachusetts sen ator1, wus borne through tho streets of his native city of Boston to tho solemn notes of tho muffled drum, with tho trappings of a splondid funeral, on his wuy to tho quiet .bIiiuIcbv of Mount Auburn, whore ho sleeps tho sloop that knows no waking this side of tho grave. This was a most lamentablo estrange ment between two great world pro nounced leaders in thoir respective spheres. It ought nover to havo como to puss. I grlovo over it now us I write of it. It is a sud memory to mo, for both Grunt und Sumner wore my fimt friends. But I have digressed. It is my full conviction that if Hawiiii hud como to Cleveland and his administration as it cumo to Harrison and his administra tion, thoy would have received it with outstretched arms. But they would not finish what Harrison had begun, nnd thoy now find thomselves currying out it policy which discredits tho tuition. This rich treasure of tho Pacific must bo lost to tho American nution for tho present through tho narrow minded, saltish policy of Clovolund, Greshum and the democrats iu the house, who dure not vote their honest convictions against tho wishes of thoir political muster, G rover Clovelund, I do not beliovo nny Ameri cun president over used tho jtovvor and patronago of his office to accomplish his purx)se us Cle eland has used his to curry through tho resolution referred to in regard to thin Hawaiian question, and tho bill.for tho repeal of tlio silver pur chasing clause of tho Sherman law.
