WASHINGTON CHAT [CORRESPONDENCE OF THE GAZETTE] Senators and representatives, irrespective of politics, continue to discuss the resolution recently adopted by the senate calling upon the heads of the various government departments to supply the names, number, compensation, etc., of employees who have been assigned to work by the president during the past year and whose appointments were made outside the civil service. It is claimed by many that the executive without legal warrant, has appointed college classmates, Rough Riders and other friends to all kinds of special offices, ignoring entirely the civil service regulations. The resolution, when it was brought up in the senate, was acted upon without a dissenting vote, not a voice being raised in defense of the president. Now, the departments called upon are busily engaged in gathering the information in order to have it before the senate during the present session. It is said that within the last few years, probably during the term of the present administration, the number of special appointments of employees who have no fixed legal status, has increased from 700 to 3000. Many legislators believe that an appointment in the clerk class, made outside of the civil service, is manifestly unfair and unjust to the hundreds of people in all parts of the country who spend weeks and months preparing for civil service examinations, who are placed on the eligible lists but who are superseded by those who are not required to come up to any special standard of fitness. Just what good will come from the recent resolution, remains to be seen. Another Trip for Taft Secretary Taft has begun preparations for his second trip half way around the world and back, upon which he will start the latter part of March. He will go first to the Isthmus to inspect the canal work and make an elaborate report to the president but He bears important letters to identify and the postmaster general at the department and House employees have been awaiting the appearance of outfit, many making wagons whether the streets of Washington be covered with snow at Smith arrives, thus permitting part of his contrivance to be whether he will roll down on nia avenue on the wheels on.

PERKINS SNIFFS W Another Trip for Taft Secretary Taft has begun preparations for his second trip half way around the world and back, upon which he will start the latter part of March. He will go first to the Isthmus to inspect the canal work and make an elaborate report to the president, but whether he will be accompanied by a congressional party, as was the case on the last journey, has not been decided. After Panama and a short rest in the United States, he will turn his steps to the Philippines, where great things political are expected. His visit will be so timed that by leaving this country the latter part of August, he will arrive in the Philippines at the opening of the legislative assembly. He will bear to the members of the first parliament of our for East possessions a message from the president, and it is understood that he will also have a little advice of his own to submit. If he outlines to the assembly a policy by which the islands would eventually be turned over to the Filipino people, it is believed that his supporters for the presidential nomination will use it as a slogan to win favor with the growing number of people who are clamoring for the relinquishing of the islands to the Filipinos. Civil War Relics Washington is about to lose what is probably the most interesting and valuable collection of civil war relics in existence and which is owned by Mrs. John A. Logan, wife of the late major general. These relics have long been on display at the handsome residence of Mrs. Logan but within the next few weeks they will be placed in the state capitol of Illinois, the legislature of that state having accepted them and made proper provision for their removal and exhibit. Among the most interesting things in the collection are the battle flags of the Army of the Tennessee, commanded by General Logan. The flags are torn by shot and shell and stained with exposure. There is a valuable Mexican hat, placed upon Logan's head by the first president of Mexico, also the old muzzle-loading Enfield that Logan, then a congressman, carried into action at Bull Run, where he fought all day wearing a frock coat and silk hat. Many photographs are in the collection, among which is one of the grand review of the troops in Washington in 1865, and others of prominent men of the time.

This influence will not tend to the peace of the world is evident when one considers the tenacity of purpose, the pride and the ambition of the two great nations." Senator Perkins' article is carefully worded so that it may not give official affront to the Japanese, but between the lines there is the unmistakable idea conveyed that sooner or later the dominance of Japan or the United States over the Pacific ocean and the commerce of the Far East must be determined by force of arms. More Enduring than Bronze David C. Beeman of Denver, in his brief for the State of Colorado in the suit between that state and Kansas over the use of the waters of the Arkansas river, pays a glowing tribute to the beneficence of irrigation, and ends with the following majestic passage, quoted from some unknown author: "Although the tomb of Moses is unknown the traveler of today slakes his thirst at the well of Jacob. The gorgeous palaces of the wisest and wealthiest of monarchs, with their cedar and gold and ivory, and even the great temple of Jerusalem, hallowed by the visible glory of the Deity Himself, are gone; but Solomon's reservoirs are as perfect as ever. Of the magnificent and costly architecture of the Holy City, not one stone is left upon another, but the pool of Bethesda commands the pilgrim's reverence at the present day.

And if any work of this generation shall rise over the deep ocean of time, we may well believe that it will be neither a palace nor a temple, but some vast aqueduct or reservoir; and if any name shall hereafter flash brightest through the mist of antiquity, it will probably be that of the man who in his day sought the happiness of his fellow men, and linked his memory to some such work of national utility or benevolence." The Tallest Trees. Australia rivals California in the matter of possessing the tallest trees in the world. The California "Big Tree"—Sequoia Wellingtonia—sometimes grows to the height of from 300 to 325 feet, with a trunk twenty-five or more feet in diameter. The tallest American tree is the redwood—Sequoia sempervirens—which in some instances has attained the height of 400 feet, or even more. In Australia the tallest trees are found in Victoria. There are, indeed, records of Australian trees approximately 500 feet in height, but these are taken to be exaggerations. A writer in the Sydney Morning Herald truly enough says that the mere guessing of heights is rarely attended with even approximation to accuracy. It seems well enough established, however, that there are trees in Austrialia which tower upwards of 258 feet into the air. Trees have been found in Africa which fall not much short of 100 feet in height. "A GOOD LOOKER." Appearances Have Much to Do With Success In Business. "Send me a good looker. I don't mean pretty, you know, but one who knows how to dress—the tailor made kind who visits the hairdresser and the manicure. Of course I know it costs, but we are willing to pay for it." This was a telephone message received by a large employment agency from a business man who required the services of a young woman bookkeeper and general office assistant. A shabby necktie or soiled linen or a cheap, well worn hat may cost you very dear, for it may be a turning point in some one's mind who has been thinking of patronizing runners.

A shabby necktie or soiled linen or a cheap, well worn hat may cost you very dear, for it may be a turning point in some one's mind who has been thinking of patronizing you. Business men are keen eyed, very sharp and often influenced by little things. Many a worthy youth has been sent away when applying for a situation because of some telltale in his dress or manner which made a bad impression. Young men may so far emphasize the matter of dress that their good appearance is about all there is to them. At the same time appearances have much to do with one's advancement, especially in large cities. In New York it is almost impossible for young men to get a start who are obliged to overcome the handicap of an unfavorable impression. It seems as though New Yorkers would forgive anything quicker than a slovenly or a poverty stricken appearance.—Success Magazine. STREETS IN A BIG STORE. The Piles of Merchandise Are Numbered Like Houses. In a large wholesale grocery house in Kansas City the lanes that intersect the great piles of merchandise have been named as streets, and the stacks of boxes, bags and packages have each been marked with a number, as the houses upon city streets are numbered. The other day a member of the firm gave the following order to a trucker: "Go over to Easy street, get that bunch of swells and take them to parlor S." A stranger in the big store would not have known what that order meant. The trucker knew. "Fairyland," the big room where girls work putting up packages.

Some years ago, before Queen Victoria's death and about the time queen's jubilee was to be celebrated the following conversation between two old Scotchwomen was over one day on a street corner in London. "Can ye tell me, wumman, wha they call a jubilee?" "Well, it's this," said her niece.
