district of Salonica September 3,
last, lias been released and arrived
at Strumit/a to meet, Miss Stone,

Miss Stone immediately made

The first news of Miss Stone’s
release was contained in a telegram
received by Mr. Dickinson, the
American consul general at Con
stantinople, from the American
vice consul at Salonica. The tel
egram gives no details of the
release. As Strumitzn is near the
Salonica-l skill) railroad, Miss
Stone will proceed to Salonica
without delay.

Artificial legs are now made so
perfectly that with the use of one
of them many a man who has lost
a leg walks so well that the casual
observer could never tell but that
his underpinning was all natural.
It would seem that the art of mak
ing artificial legs had been handed
down for many generations. But
it is not so. “Peg” legs are quite
old to be sure, but the jointed ar
tificial log, made in imitation of
the natural limb, was only patent
ed in 1800, by B. D. Douglas of
Springfield, Mass. A few days
ago Mr. Douglas died, at the age
of 75 years. He had accumulated
quite a neat fortune from his in
vention. Among his clients he
numbered a member of the royal
family of China, whose leg had
been cut ofif by order of the Empe
ror for some transgression of the
law.

THE BARNESVILLE NEWS-GAZETTE, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 27, 1902.
WASHINGTON LETTER
Chatty Gossip About the “Lady Scrap
pers”--Wheeler’s Leap Into Noto
riety-Gen. fliles Again Per
sona Grata at the White
House-President at a
Banquet, Etc.
From our regular correspondent.
The “lady scrappers,” as the
Daughters of the American Revo
j lulion are frequently jocularly
I called, on account of the scrappi
j ness of their debates, the strenu
ousness of which in past seasons
would have made the Reed rules
look sicker than a discarded lover,
are again holding their annual
congress in Washington. Mrs.
Fairbanks, the president, has so
far prevented any scrapping of as
i serious a nature as that at last
year’s session, but a number of
| the daughters are going around
1 looking as though they believed
themselves to be mothers of revo
lutions and i itended to trot out
their offspring. Consequently it
would not be safe to bet that the
calm would last another day.
The daughters are having a royal
good time socially, as they always
do have in Washington, and as
they deserve to have everywhere
| for they are as lovable a lot of
women as could be found any
where, when they are not riding
their hobbies.
Representative Wheeler, of Kv.,
awoke the day after he made his
“little Dutchman” speech and
found himself notorious, if not
famous. His mail, which was be
fore confined to a few letters from
his district, has grown to hundreds
of letters a day from everywhere,
and, he says, some of them are
commendatory. About nine out
of every ten strangers who have
been in the House gallery since
have asked to have Mr. Wheeler
pointed out to them, and some of
them have said things. One thing
can be said to his credit; he stands
by all he said and didn’t try to
tone his language down in the
Record.
If there was any ill will between
the President and Gen. Miles on
account of the Schley reprimand
episode it has passed away like a
a summer cloud. The two men
had a chummy private talk of
half an hour at the White House
this week and when they parted
both looked as pleased as anew
daddy.
President Roosevelt has made it
a rule to decline invitations to
banquets given by organizations
in Washington, but he made an
exception in favor of the Depart
ment of the Potomac, G. A. R.,
and was a guest at the banquet
given tonight by the veterans in
honor of Gen. Torrance, com
mander-in-chief, and heard the
“old boys” tell interesting remi
niscences of the war that was
fought when he was a kid.
Quite a number of noses were
put out of joint and possibly the
exhibition of a few elongated ears
was headed off by the decision,of
the high muek-a-muck committee
that the local authorities should
have no part in the official recep
tion of Prince Henry, which is to
be distinctly a national affair.
To let the three gentlemen who
are joint-mayors of Washington
under the title of commissioners,
down easy, it has been arranged
to allow them to call on Prince
Henry at the German Embassy,
after the President makes his cer
emonial call. One of the commis
sioners is an army officer, and if
he should take a notion to wear
his full dress uniform when the
trio make their call on the Prince
he will probably never be forgiven
by his civilian colleagues for out
shining them in the eyes of the
royal visitor, but why imagine
that he could be guilty of such
cruelty. Perish the thought!
Representative George B. Mc-
Clellan of New York, enjoys the
distinction of being the only man
in congress born abroad who is
eligible to the Presidency. He
was born in Dresden. Germany,
while his parents, Gen. George B.
(“Little Mac”) and Mrs. McClel
lan were making a tour of Europe,
just after the civil war. He is
very fond of the country of his
nativity, although he left it before
he was old enough to know any
thing about it. He speaks German
but lie acquired it in this country.
Senator Tillman is probably
responsible for more laughter in
the Senate than any other one
man. Consequently, if the theory
that a good laugh is more benefi
cial than a dose of medicine be
correct, he is a public benefactor.
All his colleagues like him person
ally, whatever some of them may
say to him in their frequent polit
ical spats with him. The other
day Senator Gallinger, who
doesn’t love the civil service law,
in a few remarks against the ex
| tension of the civil service rules
: said they had given protection to
j clerks “who would no more pass
the examination prepared by the
: civil service commission than the
! Senator from South Carolina
could manage M. Santos-Dumont’s
dirigible balloon.” “Humph!”
replied Mr. Tillman, “from the
; latest accounts M. Suntos-Dumont
doesn’t appear to be able to man
age the thing himself.” Senator
Gal linger joined in the general
laugh at the aptness of the retort.
Senator Fairbanks thinks the
popular idea of the life of a Con
gressman is about as great an er
ror as that of the iife of a news
paper man. Speaking on the
; subject he said : “Newspaper men
and Congressmen are the hardest
worked people in the world. There
is a popular impression that be
cause the entire Senate is not
always present at the debates we
must be wasting the people’s time.
J was for six hours today with the
Committee on Imigration at an
important hearing on the Chinese
exclusion bill, and didn’t get into
the Senate chamber until four
o’clock. Senator Spooner said
the other day, during the discus
sion of the contingent fund of the
Senate, that he usually takes up
the study of important questions
at an hour when people generally
have gone to bed, and I imagine
that the same is true with many
of us.”
The Negro and the Bull.
A negro man with a rope tied to
the left leg of a large bull created
some excitement in the neighbor
hood of the depot Monday morn
ing. The bull became frightened
and was unruly. He was a very
large animal and the negro could
not manage him. Sometimes the
negro ran after the bull and then
again the tallies were turned and
the bull would chase the the negro.
Quite a large crowd gathered to
witness the performance and many
suggestions, wise and otherwise,
were made on the part of the by
standers as to how the bull could
be calmed, but all to no avail,
and when last seen the bull was
still leading the negro a chase
down the railroad.

Tacky Party.
Miss Lavada Lavenden enter
tained a party of young people
Wednesday evening of the 19th in
honor of her friend, Miss Emmie
Crowder.
Those present were, Misses Em
mie and Lucy Crowder, Mattie
Pearl Fisher, Lillie Milner, Nell
Woodall, Ct lad y s Wellmaker,
Nancy, Katie and Yira Waller;
Mrs. Waller and Mrs. McCormick;
Messrs. Howerton, Theodore
Crowder, Hollie Holmes, Smith,
Burnett, Joe Martin, Jim Eliott,
Lloyd Fisher, and Howard. Many
entertaining games were played,
after which tacky prizes were given
to the tackiest dressed boy and
girl. Mr. Brown was voted the
tackiest boy and received a pone
of corn bread. Miss Vira Waller
received a bottle of buttermilk as
tackiest dressed girl.
Popcorn, candy and crackers
were then served A parting game
of “Old Virginia Reel” was play
ed when the party dispersed de
claring a most pleasant evening.
Clerk's Wise Suggestion.
“I have lately been much troubled
with dyspepsia, belching and sour stom
ach,” writes M. S. Mead, leading phar
macist of Attleboro, Mass. “I could
eat hardly anything without suffering
several hours. My clerk suggested I
try Kodol Dyspepsia Cure which I did
with most happy results. I have had
no more trouble and when one can go
to eating mince pie, cheese, candy and
nuts after such a time, their digestion
must be pretty good. I endorse Kodol
Dyspepsia Cure heartily.” You don’t
have to diet. Eat all the good food
you want but don’t overload the stom
ach. Kodol Dyspepsia Cure digests
your food.
