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.
