WASHINGTON, D. C.. June P.—(Spe cial.)-The Congressional Campaign Com mittee, of wh«ch '■ Representative Richard son, of Tennessee, the Democratic leader on the floor of the House, j s chairman, will hftv© complete control of th* selec tion of ail Democratic literature this year, sjid has Its headquarters at' th« Metropolitan Hotel. It Is located perma nently In this city. It Js thought the Rational Democratic Commktee will be located permanently at Chicago. Sena tor Jones, of Arkansas, the chairman of that committee, v.-ill conduct tho national camraJgn, unless his physician. Dr. Sow ers, should consider it unwise for him to co so. It will be remembered that Sena tor Jones. Jast year, about this lime, suffered from • heart trouble, and was oKised to go to Europe ."for rest and. re cuperation. If it should be determined that his health will not permit him to attend to the heavy and exacting: duties that devolve on a national campaign man sgfir, a strong effort will be made to -in duce Senator Martin, of Virginia, -to ac cept the position of National Democratic chairman. The relations between Senators .Tones and Martin are of the closest and most friendly character. Senator Martin being second to Jones on the Democratic •Steering" .Committee of tho Senate. Sen ator Martin has impressed the Demo cratic leaders here very forcibly with his tact, resourcefulness, and power of po litical organization and management. It is believed that if Jones declines tho party leadership in tho coming campaign, Mar tin will ba selected ac his successor, if he desires it. If Senator Daniel should consent to ac cept the nomination for Vice-Presldent on the Democratic ticket with Bryan,- Mar tin would no doubt be gratified to assume the burden of conducting the national campaign- It is be'Jieved that Daniel can be eariiy nominated, if he will only per mit the use of his name.

" .When John Trumbull. fell in love with vivacious ; ; and VsPriffhtly. Gertrude Moore no one would ever have _ suspected jttiat he .was a scholar, a thinker and a settled man of 40. His general actions were those of : a youth of IS undergoing his first case of love. The upshot ofj ie was that .when these" two became', engaged Miss Moore Pulled Mr. Trumbull around by his : phil osophical: nose arid "made him dance to her fiddliny as suited her capricuous and changing moods. Matrimony found; the same condition of affairs. Every domestic Question was decided by Islrs.. Trumbull, no matter whether it was the choice ot an apartment or the selection of a new coffea ■■grinder. Mir.' Trumbull being still In. a. state of blinding affection and ad miration for the little girl of 20 whom he had; wooed and won, let her have her way, .with the result that he was being henpecked to the queen's taste. But as the years went by, as the years have a way of doing, Mr. Trumbull gra dually awakened to the one-sided state of aliairs. Mrs. Trumbull, being selfish and Possessing, a thistledown, intellect, fancied that it .would not do to l^j Mr. = Trumbull 'know that she was at all fond of him. Some old lady had told her once that when a man- knows that a woman lovea him his affection becames chilled like whipped cream in an Ice chest. So she stuck up her nose— it ■'. stuck : up, ol its own accord by the way — and went her usual pace of bullyragging and worry-, ing him. She would do this, she would do tliat— what John thought didn't mat ter. But, as said before a change finally came over John's heart. Ho still con sidered that dainty wife the smartest, cleverest woman .in the world, but, strange to say, he was becoming aware of her peculiar powers of dictating ariA laying down the law. John was" quiet and inoffensive, and just the kind. of man that offers ; splendid opportunities tor tha woman' with, a will of her own. For a long time Mrs. John did not observe that her husband's substantial admira ! tion'was growing thin almost to a shad ow. But when she did realize it, the biow waa something fearful, it had been her [Opinion that even though she were to sell his best clothes to the rag man c=f to burn the house up or turn his hair white with her /everlasting .criticisms John would ever remain the same*—faith ful, adoring, enduring. One morning John didn't kiss his wife when he went down town to business. She . moped and wept and scolded the baby and the kitchen maid,. and then de cided that she dldn't v eare. From that time on things went 'from bad to worse, and from worse to even worse than that. Once in a great while when John's old time vision of love for his wife came up ha would take' her in his arms and tell her that she was tha prettiest thing in the world. Following her old-time tac tics, Mrs. John would return comment oa his bad choice of a necktie or let loose the pleasant Information that his collar was soiled on the edge. JoKn's heart would sink and he'd tramp off to work feeling like an orphan . asylum in a derby, hat and creased trousers. As it was not John's nature to war against anyone, he simply kept himself out of Mrfc. " John's way. Sunday after noons he went out for a walk. Sometimes he went over to the-Korth Side to see an old college chum of his. These trips were his only dissipations. One Sunday atternoon when he and his old friend were discussing some par ticular scrimmage that had taken place fifteen years back, the telephone .bell rang, and a .woman's voice begged to speak to Mr. Trumbull. He went to the 'phone. "Is that you, Gertrude?" "Yes, John. And. won't you come home, please, I let Sadie take baby over to your mother's, and everybody in the building is out and I'm having the iidgets. J don't know what 1 am scared - about/ t>ut. I-am just nervous." -. . "All right, deaf," said John, and home he went, not stopping long enough to finish up the recollections of the college fight. At home he found his wife sitting curl ed upo n a little settee looking very much as. she had looked when five years before ha had begged and entreated and kissed her into saying "Yes." She was twisting her handkerchief into little wads and ropes, and he knew by that that she was 1 distracted about something. - "I know you think I'm a silly to feel this way when its not even twilight yet. But I know postively that somebody tried tha kitchen windows while I was lying down, and I just couldn't get over it. 1 always was afraid. of burglars and ghosts." And then she had a nervous chill: John said nothing. He took out a copy of Spencer and lighted a cigar. After a timo the baby was brought home and put to bed. Mrs. .Trumbull had recovered from her nervousness and was peeking; out, from behind a window shade listen-; ing to a conversation that was going on in the court. The servant employed in the apartment just below the Trumbulls' abode was in tho flat opposite telling the occupants of that place that she was unable . to set into the house. ' "I can't turn the key, and if you don't mind mam, I"l go through your window.' The people didn't mind at all. They even held the girl's Parasol and pocketbook while she clambered from one window' sill to the other. • Then there came a crash. It was a ter rific- crash. Had the girl fallen, into the court? No. The sounds that came from tho floor, below were unlike those heard when Hendrick Hudson played ninepins in tha Adirondacks. At that point came a shriek, such as the stage "heroine gives vent-to when. the villian gets- -after her with a butcher knife. It was sickening. Mrs. Trumbull waited half a second, then stuck her. out the window, arid with the help of half a dozen other feminine voices called: "Mary! Mary!' What's the matter?" The reply was a volley of ' sobs and squeals, winding 'up with: "The flat's been robbed!".- .. -r . , . " Mr. Trumbull was surprised to'' see his wife with -hair, streaming down • her back and hands clutching the lolds of a bath robe, go scooting through the library .out into tha hall and down ; the stairs. V: "In ten' minutes sho returned. Her eyes were big and black and scared. Her. teeth;, wero chattering, .and; her hands were busy., with each, other. She curled up on the "divan arid looked at her husband. ; . I "John, what do you think?

By:the middle :°of this ! week nearly every one of .-the fifty-six. .! eriumerators. it is expected.: .will/ have, j ended. In several .of the districts,/ where.] population ■': is unusually ; thick, the; entire j .week /will be occupied.' ; '. - ; -.J : The showing is remarkably pleasing to j the local officers ,in; charge. No figures/ are' obtainable yet, nor - will, .'the "" officers | consent 'to make ' an estimate j on/the -basis ! of returns that have been. made. It/ may be that no figures will be given out even after' the enumeration, has been fin ished, before the; Washington bureau is \ ready ; to make them public. ;. Captain """ McLaughlin said yesterday : | "During ( the whole -taking of the census J so far we; have; had but five complaints ! from - enumerators of .'persons.. .declining"! to answer the questions. Threeiof these j came in /on the sameday, but early the I next morning- all of them sent messages I to the enumerators that, they would an- ! Ewer the questions. The other two' l saw i In person, and had no difficulty in ob- j taining the : desired information." Captain McLaughlin . also said: "The enumerators have made daily reports to the ; Census Bureau, at Washington, and to Supervisor Snead, at his: home. In King William county." . i 'FLEA SIAY BE HVSAMITTT.
