Henry Watteuson describes the
Jcffersonian simplicity of the depart
ment administration at Washington as
follows : "I have seen "Washington un
der ten Administrations , and I never
.dreamed that such arrogance and inso- ;
lence as now prevails here were possi
ble. a I would not , as a self-respecting
man , venture to enter any Department
where I am not personally known. "
Turn the ruffians out. "
LordDeClifford a married man and
LordDe Wilton an unmarried aristocrat
had a fistic encounter in the alley back
of the Gaiety theatre in London the
other night. It was over a woman.
Neither lord had sand enough to thrash
the othei * . Experts in the duello were
then consulted. Tliev decided that , as
the two lords hit each other at the same
time there was no insult and the honor
of each is untarnished. O , for five
minutes of Professor John L. Sullivan.
In Grant county , Ore. , where the
bounty on jack rabbit scalps , is five
cents each , some of the farmers stretch
a'wire screen across the prairie , the
screen having meshes just large enough
for a rabbit to stick his head through.
Then men and dogs round up the rabbits ,
and drive them toward the screen , and ,
in their hurry to escape , they stick their
heads through and are caught. Then
the farmers scalp the captives and let
them go ; hoping that each will raise
anp then five cent scalp before long.
There is a dress reform woman named
Miller now lecturing in the East. She
differs from many of her kind in wearing
sensible aud comely costumes. Mrs.
Miller is making war upon the unsightly
and ridiculous bustle , and believes that
half-naked woman should not enter
public places. She. believes that inde
cent exposure should not be practiced
even if dictated by fashion. The bath
ing costume she regards as far more
decent than the bail room dress , in
fact Mrs. Milller seems to have studied
the questions she treats , and to be put
ting forth theories that tend to produce
health and develop beauty.
