NEW NEWS of YESTERDAY
=* By E. J. EDWARDS I
President Broke Precedent
General Arthur Personally Called on
Hugh McCulloch to Offer Him
the Position of Secretary
of the Treasury.
In 1863 Hugh McCulloch, who for
eighteen years had been a banker in
Indiana, was made the first comptrol
ler of the currency by appointment of
President Lincoln. Two year® later
Mr McCulloch succeeded Samuel Fes
senden as secretary of the treasury
and held that position until is69, in
that period successfully meeting that
serious problem of paying off the
Union troops at the close of the Civil
war and bringing order into the
finances of the nation. Fifteen years
later he again became secretary of
the treasury, holding the portfolio
until Cleveland's first administration
began; and the manner in which he
was asked to take his old cabinet posi !
probably stands unique in the history
of American cabinet building.
Although, following his retirement
from the treasury in 1869. Mr. McCul
loch retained his legal residence in
Indiana, he nevertheless made his
home in Washington a part of each
year. He was engaged in some very
important banking and financial
work; his services were much sought :
by bankers generally, and he fre
quently was called upon to give pro
fessional counsel to the administra- I
tion. Mr. McCulloch's Washington
home was well out in the suburbs. .
about half an hour's drive from the
city's boundary. One afternoon,
shoftly after he had returned tnither
from business, he was informed by a
servant that the president of the i
United States was in the reception j
room and had asked to see Mr. Me- 1
Culloch.
It was most unusual for a president I
to make such a call, and Mr. McCul- !
loch was not a little surprised by the j
intelligence that the president was
awaiting him below. But while he |
was preparing to go down stairs and :
receive the president, the thought oc |
curred to Mr. McCulloch that General |
Arthur was the first of all presidents
to accept dinner Invitations to private
houses, and so probably, while pass- I
ing the house, the president had been
seized with a desire to pay a little so
cial call on a former secretary of the
treasury—that, in fact, the president
was simply breaking another long
standing precedent by paying a per
sonal cal! upon a private citizen.
For a few minutes after the two
men met and the president and Mr.
McCulloch chatted informally, the
president speaking of the beauties of
nature as he had discovered them in
the vicinity of the Soldiers’ Home,
where he was fond cf driving. But
suddenly the president interrupted
the flow of small talk.
"Mr. McCulloch." he said. “1 have
called upon you with a special pur
pose. I have come to say that Gen
eral Gresham, who. as you know, has
been in my cabinet both as postmas
ter-general and as secretary of the
treasury, is anxious to return to the
bench. A vacancy has occurred in
the T'nited States circuit court for the
district of which Indiana is a part,
and. much as I regret to lose General
Gresham. I must heed his earnest re
quest and nominate him for this va
cancy
“Now. of course, you know it is cus
tomary when the president makes
choice of a cabinet officer for him to
get the views of his political friends
respecting this or that man whom he
may think of appointing. This is es
pecially true of appointments for the
treasury and the postoSice depart
ments But it pleases me to tell you
that without consulting with any one
1 hare decided to ask you to become
Genera! Gresham's successor as sec
retary of the treasury. Moreover,
you are the first person to whom I
have mentioned this purpose, and I
have thought that it would be the bet
ter part for me to call upon you and
tender you here the office of secretary
of the treasury instead of sending for
you to come and see me at the execu
tive mansion. I do not see how ] can
in any better way show you how sin
cerely desirous i am that you should
enter my cabinet, as head of the treas
ury department "
"The president's unprecedented
manner of offering me the appoint
ment. and the grace with which he
did so. made it impossible for me to
refuse the honor." said Mr. McCulloch,
"although accep ance of it meant
i some business inconvenience and not
a little pecuniary sacrifice."
And so it came about hat a few
! days later the politicians and bankers
of the country were astonished when
it was announced that Mr. McCulloch
had been nominated as secretary of
the treasury. Until then they had
not received the slightest intimation
of President Arthur's purpose with re
spect to Genera! Gresham's succes
sor.

Two Lectures Made Into One
How Wendell Phillips Once Gave His
Auditors a Double Portion for One
Price Without Their
Knowledge.
As a manager of lecture lyceums in
the days of their great popularity—
that is, between 1S60 and 1SS0—the
late John G. North was on intimate
terms with most of the men and wom
en of America who have gone down in
history as our great platform orators.
Wendell Phillips. John B. Gough, An
na E. Dickinson and others—he knew
them all and managed them, and be
tween him and Wendell Phillips there
sprang up a personal relation that bor
dered on intimate friendship.
“Mr Phillips after the close of the
Civil war was. with the possible ex
ception o. lohn B. Gough. the most
popular lec.urer upon 'he American
platform,” said Mr. North. "And yet.
Practiced What He Preached
Elias Howe, of Sewing Machine Fame.
Though Worth s Million. En
listed as a Private in a
Connecticut Regiment.
"I knew the inventor of the sewing
machine well. I remember as though
it were yesterday the day Elias Howe
; came to Bridgeport. Conn., looking for
a site for his sewing machine factory.
I He was a queer-looking man, very
thick set, with long curly hair, and
’hat day, and often after, when 1 got
to know him intimately, 1 was struck
with the resemblance between him
and the popular likenesses of Benja
min Franklin. That likeness was not
only In Howe's features, but also in
his way of looking at life. He was as
practical a man as Franklin himself,
and. like Franklin. Howe was blessed
i with a great deal of common sense.
"I could tell you many interesting
stories of Howe,” continued the late
Abner L. Train, a member of Yale's
famous class of 1853. and afterwards
a noted Connecticut editor; "how, for
example, after he had won his patent
fights in the courts of the United
States his income increased in one
year from about $500 to $300,000. But
the most interesting story I know
about Howe is connected with the
Civil war.
"When the war broke out—by that
time Howe was one of the rich men of
the country, and one of its leading
manufacturers—he became tremen
dously excited. Not even in the heat
of his patent suits could any one re
member having seen him so worked
up; and he backed up his words in
favor of the Union by giving his time
freely to the cause and advancing a
great deal of money to the state for
the purpose of equipping i»s soldiers.
He also contributed liberally to bounty
funds, and. it is suspected, looked
after the family of more than one ‘boy’
at the front.
"Well, things had gone on this way
with Howe for about a year when he
began to say vehemently to his friends
that every able-bodied man under fifty
years of age not only ought to give
what time and money he could to the
: Union cause, but should also enlist, j
adding that be purposed at the first
opportunity to practice what he
preached.
"At the time a regiment was being
enlisted in western Connecticut for a
three-year service. It was to be the
Seventeenth Connecticut Volunteers.
One day who should walk Into a place
where enlistment was going on for
this regiment but Elias Howe. No one
was surprised to see him there, for
every one knew how zealous he was
in behalf of the north. But when he
walked up to the enlisting officer and
said in a quiet voice that he desired
to enlist for three years every one was
immediately seized with astonishment.
'I want to enlist as a private,’ he
added, and in silent amazement the
pen was handed to him and he wrote
his name with a firm hand upon the
enlistment roll.
"With the regiment this man. who
was then worth at least a million dol
lars—five years later his estate was
inventoried at two millions—this man
who was one of the famous inventors
of the world, and one of the leading
manufacturers of the new world, was
mustered in as a private some time
later and carried a knapsack on his
back and a musket over his shoulder
to the front But before he did that
he gave further strong evidence of his
love for the Union. There was some
delay or difficulty about raising the
needed funds to equip the Seventeenth
properly—I suppose because of some
procrastination at Washington. But
whatever the cause of delay, when
Howe heard of it he almost secretly
advanced the needed funds.
"When he marched away with the
regiment Mr. Howe looked enthusias
tically forward to the day when he
might be able to do something for his
country on the line of battle. But
after he had been in service a little
while the surgeons of the regiment
discovered that he was not in the best
of health—in fact, was not fit physi
cally for military duty. So, to the deep
disappointment of Mr. Howe, he was
compelled to retire from the army, in
which, so far as I knew, he was the
only millionaire who chose to enroll
himself as a private."

. unlike most of those who were his
j rivals, he never wrote out a lecture.
“Mr. Phillips' habit of carrying his
. lectures about witb him in his head
and not in his carpet bag led to an
amusing incident in Bennington. Ver
i aiont, where he had been engaged to
appear by the local lecture bureau.
* An hour or so after his arrival In the
town the iyceum committee, three
prominent townsmen, called upon him
‘ at the hotel.
“ 'Well, Mr. Phillips.' said the chair
man of the committee, what lecture
are you going to deliver to us tonight?’
“ ‘That is for you to say.’ Mr. Phil
| lips replied.
"‘Have you brought all your lec
^ tures with you?’ the chairman asked.
“ ’Yes, I always carry them with
me.’
“ In your carpet bag. 1 guess.’ the
i chairman said.
" No. cot in my carpet bag. 1 car
ry them where they cannot be taken
away from me. 1 am never anxious
j lest they be lost.’
• ’’ ’Well, then, where do you carry
| them. Mr. Phillips?’ the chairman
asked, curiously.
’’ ’In my head. 1 have got them aH
in my head, and you can make anv
selection you choose. 1 will deliver
the lecture on “The Lost Arts.” or on
Daniel O Connell,” or on “Toussaint
] 1 ’Ouverture,” the black man who ere
I ated the republic of Hayti Which
; ever one you select 1 shall be glad te
i deliver.’
“ ’You have got all those lectures
with you in your head?’ asked a
shrewd looking little man. who up to
that time had not spoken.
“ ’Yes. they are ail there,’ Mr. Phil
lips replied.
“ 'Well. now. if we can’t make a
choice, said the little man. ‘why can’t
you deliver two of them for the one
1 price?
“Mr. Phillips instantly saw the hu
mor of the proposition, and it appealed
to him. so that he agreed to deliver
two lectures. ’The Lost Arts’ and
I’Ouverture,’ instead of one and for the
j price of one.
“And that hr did a little while later,
i Lut as he was not tied down to any
manuscript or any memorized form,
and as he had wonderful skill in
j speaking and arrangement of his
! speech, he actually dovetailed those
two lectures together—cutting out. of
1 course, a portion from each lecture so
as not to make the lecture too long
so that no one in the audience real
! ized that he was delivering two lec
j tures.
“Least of all did the little man of
the committee realize it. for after the
lecture was over he said to Mr. Phi!
lips: ‘I thought you were ‘going to
give us two lectures *
” ’My friend. 1 did give you two lec
tures,’ was the reply.
“‘You did?’ exclaimed the little
; man. ’Why. it all sounded like one to
me.’ And he looked sorely puzzled.
“ ’That’s exactly what I intended.
Mr. Phillips replied, laughing. And
he felt that the humor of the situa
i tion abundantly compensated him for
the delivery of two of his famous lec
tures at one time aad for the price he
customarily received for one lecture."

Birds Defy Death Fumes.
For three or four successive sea
sons starlings In the Burton district of
Somerset, England, have taken a
fancy for scientific knowledge, and
have nested in the laboratory ventila
tor at Sexeys school (Burton). But
this year the nests have been built
in the flue of the tune closet for car
rying off the fumes of the chemicals
used, and, in addition to the ordinary
fumes, the birds have defied all efforts
for their extermination, in the shape of
fumes of sulphur, phosphorus, hydro
gen sulphide, hydrochloric acid, and a
host of others. It is quite a common
occurrence for a bird to descend the
flue and perch on a piece of apparatus
fn the glass cupboard.

Hid Name of the Hotel
Vacationist Didn’t Want People to
Think She Lived In a Charitable
Institution.
A resident of a woman's hotel met
many people while away on her sum
mer vacation. For several weeks aft
er her return her mail was swelled by
dozens of postcards from those new
acquaintances. One day another board
er noticed that all those cards were
addressed to the house number in
stead to the hotel.
“Why do you avoid our honored
name?” she asked.
“Because 1 don’t want people to
think I am a pauper," said the vaca
tionist. “Early in the summer I found
out that the name of this hotel has
traveled far. and that everywhere it
is regarded as a Mad of charitable in
stitution.
“It is that way with all hotels run
for women only. You might shout
facts and figures at strangers until
you were hoarse and yon could never
convince them that such places are
run on a paying basis. Everywhere
the Impression prevails that a wo
man’s hotel is a refuge for the down
and out.
^ ’During the summer I met girls whc
live in women's hotels in Boston. Chi
cago. and elsewhere. In the beginning
they, like myself, guilelessly mention
ed the name of their hotels, but soon
they learned to keep it a guilty secret
and to give the house number only
simply because they couldn’t stand be

a poorhouse ”

SPOILED JOKE FOR WILLIE'
And Now the Youngster Is Convinced
That Wcrr.en Have No Sense
of Humor.
Willie is convinced that women
have no sense of humor. Willie is
seven, and he judges all women by
his mother. What he considered a
splendid joke occurred to him. and
he resolved to make his father its
mute and admiring witness or audi
tor.
‘•Mamma." said Willie, "when papa
comes home I’ll climb up on the step
ladder and pretend to be doing some
thing to the picture. Then you say:
"Willie, what are you up to?’ Then
I’ll say: TTp to date.’ Won’t papa be
surprised?"
Papa came home in due time and
was hardly seated before Willie drag
ged in the stepladdcr and climbed up
to a picture. This was mamma s cue
to ask the question that would give
Willie the opening for the joke. So
mamma hurriedly asked:
"Willie, what are yon doing up
there?"
Willie turned a look of disgust, cha
grin and disappointment upon his
mother, climbed down the lauer and
left the room without a word.
Was He a Bcstcnisn?
“John." shrieked a woman, "don't
go under that ladder.”
But under it John went with a
swoop to the pavement.
"My dear." he said, coming up wirti
a dollar bill in his hand, "if I hadn't
gone under the ladder that boy would
have beaten me to the currency.”
