ously. Mr. KetPham has repeatedly de
clared that theie Is no truth In the allega

PERSONAL AND OTHERWISE
"Jack" Prnnington. one or the bright
est or newspaper men, who lias made liiri
home in Atlanta, Ga., Tor several yei-s,
where he hie done some e.ceplionally
clever vvoik, has cast his anchor in Wash
ington. "It requites considerable money and
etrort to keep a city in good sanitiry con
dition," said Col. A- M. Parsons, or Illi
nois; at the Ailington yesterday, "but noth
ing give4- a city more attractive reputation
or drawing power than the credit ror
cleanliness ami healthrulness, and nothing
retards a cil.v's growth so much as the
discredit or being sickly and dirty. Every
where I feo I ) car Washington spoken of
as one ot the cleanest cities in the world,
and I am rrre to say she is entitled to the
palm. Your death rate is small, thus
showing Hint good .sanitation and cleanli
ness means heilth ami a low death rate.
Modern .seiei'Cfc has demonstrated that
most of the more dangerous disease Kerms
are filth bled. It is alwavs a pleasure
for hip to come to Washington and I alw.i v
regret when the time conh-s to leave."
"It seems," remarked the man in the
obby, "that we are going to have another
epidemic of suicide, and the only wonder
to me is that there are not more. There
aresomany peopla here whoare out of work,
their homes brc. ken up, every day a round of
privation, pain and hirdnliip, and they are
just.-implj hanging on to the ragged edg.
Ilut monetary lots, physical pain, dyspeptic
ambition, 1 emore,destitution?or a thousand
other caui-Ph, does not, I think, justify a
man ii taking his own life. He'd best
brace up and leave his Jump to the great
henceforth in the hands, ot the Master."
"There arc in South Carolina," said Mr.
Horace Aall at the St. J.un, jesterdayt
"a large number of people who claim to
be heirs of one Robert Edwards, who died
in the city or Xew York, the fee simple
ownerofatiactoriand inthalcity.conialn
ing Mxtv-rive acres in the Twelfth ward.
Tlie heirs claim that in 1778 Robert Ed
ards leased this property to Hje vestry or
Trinity Church tor the period or ninety
nine years. Lawyers and detectives h-tve
madea good rat thing of the claimants, and,
no doubt, it will he one hundred and ninety
nine more years before it is settled."
The Xational Hotel register shows the
names or 105 women excursionists from
Xew York, and tonight another party or
the same number will come lu rrom Penn
sylvania. The Metropolitan has over one
hundred, and the Eubitt about eighty. The
ladles ar- school teachers and their invited
friends.. fier seeing Wnshlng.o.i thoroughly
they will return to their homes.
Ex-Represent atlve Charles It. Crisp, who
succeeded his father, the la te Speaker Crisp,
in the House ot Representatives, pasd
through Washington this morning en route
in Chicago, on leKal business- Mr. Crtp is
one or the youngest men ever elected to
Congress, and his rriends say that he will
again enter politics. On the 27th of next
month Mr. Crisp will wed a wealthy aud
talented young lady at his home In Amerl
cus, Ga.
"I enjoyed the editorial in this morn
ing's! inies relative to Congressional funeral
oratoti," remarked Mr. A. D. Saul, of
Kentucky, at the Ebbitt, "but what the
people want is reform on the line of
Congressional funerals. Or my perso-nl
knowledge I know, that as high as $3
per pair for plovcs and .$30 Tor sashes
have been paid for use at funerals. This
thing of paying out money at tlie rate
oC from SI 0,000 to $35,000 to bury a
Senator or Representative is all wrong,
and still our lawmakers hesitate to ap
propriate Si 5,000 tokeep the Congressional
Library oppn."
"1 see In The Times that Rev. Sim
Small has been appointed e-vangellst for
Georgia," said Mr. W. T. Appleby, or
that State, yesterday morning, "and I am
sure he will meet a warm welcome and
will accomplish a great work. Georgia is
Mr'. Sma'd's old home and he hab hun
dreds of rriendff, both In and out or ile
