(From our regular correspondent.)
"War talk is again overshadowing
everything else here, and nine people
out of ten, who are informed on the
question, believe that war will be declared against Chili within less than
thirty days. The administration was
led to believe hy the Chilian minister
that his government was on the eve of
offering satisfactory reparation for the
insult to tills country, and for that reason the correspondence and the Presi-
dent' proclamation was not sent to Congress last week, as was the original intention. But there is to be no more
temporizing, and the correspondence
and proclamation is to go to Congress
as soon as Judge Advocate General
Remey, of the navy, completes the taking of the testimony of the sailors of
the Baltimore, and the talk of the Congressmen leaves no doubt of the reception it will meet with in Congress.
Representative Jerry Simpson made
a yery shrewd attempt to obtain official
recognition from the Speaker pro tem
for the people's party when the agreement was made that each party should
be allowed two hours for debate on Mr.
Holman's resolution that the judgment
of the House is against the passage of
any hill siding in any manner private
enterprises and against the appropriation of any money, aside from that necessary to keep up the work of the department, by asking if that arrange-
mentincluded.two hours for the people's
party as well as for the democrat and
republican parties. The Speaker made
a diplomatic escape from the dilemma
by saying that he assumed the division
of time would he between those in favor
of the resolution and those, against it.
The resolution was adopted yesterday,
and puts au end to the hopes of those
who had been expecting appropriation
for various things.
It la thought by many that the de-
j cision of the Supreme Court to the
effect that a witness cannot he compelled to give testimony that will criminate him, will seriously hamper the
! work of the Interstate Commerce Commission, as it is regarded as next to impossible to prove violations of law without being able to compel the shipper
and tlie railroadman, suspected of violating the law, to testify. An attempt
will be made to remedy this very serious defect in the Interstate Commerce
law by Congressional legislation.
Representative Harter, of Ohio, evidently remembers a statement made
last summer by Secretary Foster to the
effect that a largo number of Customs
collection districts in New England
might be abolished at a great spring to
the Government and without injury to
the service, for he has introduced a bill
for the reduction and consolidation of
customs collection districts iu all parts
of the country, which he says will, if
enacted into a law. increase the efficiency of the service and save S.lTK,t)0(>

I Representative Jerry Simpson wants

Reckless Match Strikers.
Tlie terror of neat housekeepers is
the reckless person who strikes matches
on all sorts of improper places,leaving
scratches on walls, doors, mantels,
furniture, or anything contiguous to
the places where matches at- kept.
The cigarette fiends are the most frequent transgressors in this respect.
They light so many matches that they
get in the habit of "striking on the first
thing that comes handy. On some of
the ferryboats and most smoking cars
there are metal plates screwed to the
woodwork of convient access for striking matches, but the reckless match
strikers will not take the trouble to
use them, but strike on the first convenient surface. The result is seen iu
long, ugly marks on the woodwork,
defacing the paint and making ugly
streaks. In many public building-
there are also many such marks on
walls, especially in corners near exits,
where the match-striking demons have
left traces of their untidiness. It makes
no difference to these heedless persons
when they see a wall or a wainscot
freshly painted or newly cleaned.
With one fell swoop they will slash
away with their matches, leaving long
trails of sulphur to spoil the surface.
The careful man will use the prepared
surface of the matchbox, or flagging,
or floor, or some place where the match
will not leave a mark to be an eyesore.
But, alas! most of those who strike
matches are not careful. Some of
them deserve to be prosecuted under
that section of the penal code which
prescribes a penalty for malicious mischief.

A Musical Evening.
"I passed a musical evening in my
room last night," said a gentleman on
bis way down-town this morning.
"There's no use talking, music and
moonlight go together as natural as
hog and hominy or 'possum and potatoes. I was sitting at my window
keeping cool. In the pretty yard of
my next-door neighbor his daughters
were entertaining their beaux, and
they sang quartets in a low, murmuring, 'ask papa' sort of way. Across
the street somebody apparently had a
mortgage on a piano aud was foreclosing it against its own protest.
Down~ou our front steps a group of
little boys were gathered about another little boy who had a mouth-har-
moniea with which he was announcing
musically that he had been 'comrades
ever since they were boys.1 At a stable-door in the alley a negro coachmau
sat with his guitar, picking winners
right straight along. All this, you
know, was 'linked sweetness long
drawn out' through the whole evening. And just as I was preparing to
retire with my soul calmed by such a
bath-of harmony a carriage party from
the suburbau saloons whirled by singing 'A Flower from My Angel Mother's
Grave.' And before I got to sleep the
watchmau of my block rapped his
stick under my window aud whistled
'Come Where My Love Lies Dreaming.' Oh, I tell you, I was right in
music up to my neck last night!"—St.
