"Well, 1 was a friend of the Hani son family and after mastering short hand I went Into the olllce of the I'resldent-to-be.

Traditions and tribal tacts and history were remembered and bunded down from one generation to another and even the little children taught games meant to impress each tree and stone and location of a spring upon tho bruin. That is what makes the Indian such an incomparable frcout." And It enables Mrs. Baldwin, descendant of scouts, to earn a most comfortable stipend from tho conquer or? of her people. Youth Iv-M'iitlal at Capitol, Only within tho past decado has thu colony of workers up at the Cap itol become a factor in the llfo of the Government woman. Here youth counts for more than experience. Few of the stenogra phers of feminine persuasion havo reached the thirty mark In life's lido line: most of them have not yet lived a quarter of a century. They must he capable stenographers not neces sarily rapid ones neat looking, and able to refrain from gossiping about 11111 Iters legislative. And for that list of accomplish ments thoy receive from $1,200 to $1,4 10 to $2,2li0 a year, with long va cations, many privileges and an op portunity to meet marriageable men. Three of them were married to Con gressmen last session. Under tho first compensation they nro listed as "skilled laborers;" under tho second as "messengers," under tho third as "secretaries" which is really the propur title for most of them. Tho work Is so light and tho at mosphere so pleasing, to a wldo uwnku woman, that frequently a Con gressman puts a female member of his own family into the Job. Miss Agnes Wilson, oldest daughter of Secretary Wilson of tho Department of Labor and 1 ranking Cabinet host ess this winter, will long bo recalled by newspaper folk as the secretary to tho Committee on Labor, of which her father when In Congress was chair man, and n woman who knew news when she snw It, Mrs. Marn,n M.

She, likewise, would have to "pass up" the nest egg of eighteen hundred per nullum should hhu consider matrimony. over at the Indian oilleo thoro Is Mrs. Mario Baldwin, a h'llf-breed lll dlan woman, who has the pleasure of pausing on claims for her pcoplo as a clerk. She fulfills her duties so well that she receives equal salary with men who handle laud cases there. She has the vivid memory which invariably ehnrni'ti rlz. s tho red pen. pie; und for her there is nono of that continuous referring to nolo books and printed guides to flint tho IIkdits on a case. One. 1 scans a page or M sir a column of statistics she I lun tlieni "for keeps." MU MISS LILLIAN M. UKL'SUl I ' o the Committee on Ways and Means 'officially receives $2,000 a year; but there is no law against her making a third again that much If she cares tn do extra work for any of her Com mittee nnd the hours enable a hust ler to accomplish It. Perhaps Miss Lillian M. Reesch Is the best known of nil the stenogra phers at the Capitol. She Is really private secretary, clerk and general factotum around the ofllco of Mr. South Trlmball, Clerk of the House, for there Isn't a detail of the day's routine with which she Is unfamiliar. She receives $1,400 a year, but that I Is Just a part of her earnings. Miss Roesch is nn unusually fin ished manipulator of the keys nnd Juggler of the little shaded marks which mean so much or so little. Many moons ago she learned that hardest of feminine lessons not I to tattle, anel It has been 11 Hav ing investment. A man of Important affairs, the Import of which would Interest many people, knows that he can find In Miss Reason a rapid short hand transcriber, n competent type writer and a woman who will forget what he has dictated before he leaves tho olllce. So she enjoys an enviable addition to her regular wages. Highest Siilntlcil Woman. According to the report of the Sec retary of the Senate, Leona M. Wells is tho highest salaried woman at the Capitol. She ls listed as "assistant clerk," and recelv. s $2,5 00 per t. num. Miss Theresa M. Curtis, clerk to the Committee on Coast Defenses, re ceives $2,250 a year nnd so do five other young women thero for like services. Eighteen hundred a year Is received by something less than n dozen graduates of business colleges, and where a girl ls willing and com petent to do the work of both sec retary and stenographer she receives double compensation for Congress allows the sum. and It can be ex pended as the Congressman best sees fit. And now to show thu problem stu dents how utterly beyond reckoning Is romancu! Two of the hlghost pnld women over employed In Washington j by the Government have placidly re- signed tiieir lucrntlvo desks to marry. Miss Kstello Reel, former Inspector of Indian schools, who traveled all tho time, and wns paid $3,000 n yoar, quit to wed a ranchman of Wyoming and live the settled life. A Miss Kelly, who wns assistant di rector of the Mint, and although this was not generally known, acted as di rector when that ofllclal was out of town, also received $3,000 n year. But she preferred to be the wlfo of an army olllcer--and she Is. lias a Dlllicult Job. No article on Government women, laboring as n class or as Individuals, could be complete without mention of Miss Julia Lathrop, She Is head if Die Children's Bureau, and Is paid $5,000 a jear by Uncle Sam to de termine what Is best for his "children crying In tho night." Miss Lathrop always hears them, for her work does not cense with the closing down of her desk lid. Twenty-four hours of tho day she Is the director nf that Bureau It Is husband, family, home and recreation to her, and there Isn't a man In the Government who could fill It or would venture to try. It Is one position about which there has nover been heard tho envious plaint "It pays too much!"

But then came a long period of sombre togs, from which tho lord anel master of the home Is Just emerging. Glob, trotters, who stepped from th gangplanks of the finest steamships, three winters ago e-leotrlfled waiting Americans by the g.iudlness of their bins and hosiety and tho rumor went forth that "men are going to wear G RE FN hats!" The conservative roplled that there always wore, and will be, certain ex tremists to dress regardless of taste, but that "no man who amounted to anything" would so defy the ameni ties. Last winter more than ono male In dividual whose voice Is heard In coun cils of the noted hought himself ft vci (iun'-hued chapeau and tried not to Bhow tbat he felt oe nerous as a dobutnnto in her first long dress. He was too much In the minority, however, to fuel that superiority which accompanies the correctly garbed. But this autumn the mnlo creature boldly a3"rtod his heieditary right to bo tho human rainbow of his fam ily. Grandfather and grandsou consider it not only right, but necessary, to wear blue velour hats and not any dull, dark blue, indigo which looks black nt night, either, but tho vivid, unmlstakablo blue and blue vicuna, or chinchilla, overcoats. This depar ture would be alone sufliclent to make "equal lights" ladles protest against nu Invasion of their territory, but whon one sees bluo VF.LVKT bands round said head-covorings. bluo col lars on the coats, and even blue Tux edo suits gracing Informal gatherings thero Is Indignation Indeed! Tho hats, to bo really de rlgeur, must hnvo fairly high crowns nnd straight around bilms; the overcoats stop either at the bend of tho knoo or a scant two Inches below It. For ladles' tnllors have decided that nc smartly gowned feminine will now wenr a coat of groator length than that and no mere man must make tho former look ridiculous by walking with her when nttlred ln a full length rnglan, Tho man who absolutely refuses to go about ln a continual state of blues nia wear n grey rough overcoat in stead, but it must havo sloping shoul ders, narrow, turn-back cuffs, a but toned belt and all the ncoesorles that go to mako up the usual college boy's regalia. Because Milady's hnt Is oval crowned so must be her escort's derbv and thero never was a morn apt Il lustration of the claim that "he who laughs Inst grins with delight."
