Washington, D. C„ March 28.—It Is.
not generally known that there Is a
unique Industry which has flourished
In the Capitol for a number of years
and which explains why the congres-
stonal tree seed distribution has many
friends around the Capitol. There are.
men here who have made a comfort
able living for a number of years by
purchasing (seeds from members of
Congress or their clerkB, or anyqne
else from whom they can be obtained,
and then selling them to other mem-
hers of Congress or perhaps to seeds
men.
An interesting example of how this
BCheme Is worked occurred recently.
A newspaper correspondent requested
a Senator to obtain for him some gov
ernment documents which were out
of print. Being anxious to oblige this
correspondent, who represents the
leading paper In the Senator’s State,
the Senator Instructed his clerk to
procure the documents, If possible.
He enlisted the services of one of
the professional seed and document
"exchangers” at the Capitol, who se
cured for him the documents in ques
tlon, In return for which the Senator
gave him 6,000 packages of flower pad
vegetable seeds. A day or two lator
a member of pongress from a West
ern State, who is having a hard time
in his district, wanted to send as
many people In his district as possi
ble packaged of seeds, to show that be
remembered them. He therefore In
structed his clerk to procure 4,000 ad'
ditlonal packages and the clerk- pur,
chased from the party to whom the
Senator had allotted the 5,000 pack
ages 4,000 of them, paying therefor
$00. The “exchanger” thus got $80 '|n
cash for passing some government
documents to a Senator and some gov
ernment seeds,to a Representative.
'EIGHTEENTH ANNUAL SI
The Bessemer (Ala.) Weekly tells
the following story of negro supersti
tion: ,
Will the colored people ever Ueootne
civilized or half way Americanised?
Persistent Incidents would cause qne
to dqubt or at least seriously distrust
.It. The race seems to have no men
tal balance. They, are the prey of
the eiUtest superstition- .
A couple of weeks slnoe an itiner
ant or wandering negro woman
preacher or exhorter appeared here,
and began haranguing the darkles.
She said she was the one through per
revelations with the Almighty who
prophesied, the big cyclone that wiped
out Meridian and the Lord had sent
her to Bessemer to wain the tfaople
here, that He, the Lord, would send
down upon them a big oyolone to wipe
this wicked city off of the face of the
.earth, end that It was ““re to come
last Sunday morning. ’
The darkteB listened with Wide-
open mouths and their. eyeB bulged
from their sockets and their legs and
bodies trembled as If zero weather
had suddenly struck them half clad,
They went hpme scared as If the
horned gentleman was right at their
heels, immediately they started on
the ran)page and, many of them has
tened to get out of Bessemer.
The cyclone was sidetracked some
where nnd on Monday moat of the
Industries In the city employing ne
groes were severely Inconvenienced by
the absence of their colored employes,
and some haven’t returned yet at this
writing, now neatly a week inter.
The coming and work Of this crazy
negress occasioned hundreds of dol
lars loss to this city.
8he should have been promptly ar
rested as a vagrant by the ponce and
either jailed or warned to promptly
get out of the place. Characters like:
her ought not to be permitted to .run
at large.
But why should the negro .race,,
raised hdre,- be still sb Ignorant -and
superstitious 'as to be frightened by
•the vnnorlngs of a looney?
