Then she turned the inscription downward und wsshed the other side clear and white und lilted it into place. She received little credit for her work. Oliver only muttered: "You needn't have published the fact. I couldu't afl'ord a porch to the place." And no one noticed the step after ward have Hannah when she scrubbed it. Matters were very bsd at tbe Gueldts. Oliver broodetl over the fire in speech less soi row and grew grayer and bald er with each passing dav.

Working iu her garden one dty, when the brat spring grass wuh grow ing green, Hannah heard footsteps, and, lifting her head, saw two gentle men beside her, and arose precipitately, with womanly anxiety about her ankles t.or strictly covered, perhaps by her cotton gown. The nearest gentlemen, an elderly man, witli bright daik yes, addressed her. "Mrs. Oneldr, I presume.'' "Yes sir." She asked him to walk in and he pMd so, the other following, in the little parlor they sat down. "You are Mis. Hannah (Jueldt, Oliver Gneldt's ife!"

Going to tbe door, Hannah took down a bom, used for that purpose, and uttered a call which brouirbt Oliver Gneldt home from tbe held st onoe. He also felt alarmed, but ex plena tions nutated him. Almost as much astonished as his wife, he brought out the old ISibh "The deal f my wife's great-grand father. Zebu Ion liurua, ia not here," be said. "The first record is in his band, I believe. It is tbe birth of his eldest child." So it proved, and tbe lawyer looked disappointed. "You cannot- renjcuW the day of his death r be aaid.

"Who can prove that, he said. "No one, perhaps. Ye, the record of tbe old man's death might." "A man whose dying hand signed a ill on tbe lwth of March would roely make another on the 15th.

"Then it is gone," said Oliver. "And our last hope with it. No, gentlemen, good luck could never come to us. Poverty means to cling to us to tbe last. I wish you had better clients."

He feared his wife's brain was turning, snd that made him faint and cold as he fol lowed her into the garden, and there watched while tho three others lifted at the fiat slab.

Lnltotl States Senators draw their salaries Just us regularly and with as much greed loess as any other "hired hand" iu Washington. Homo of them draw every day during the w ashm of Congress, some once a week, others twice a month. A few of them go Into the cashier's room of the Secre tary's office and get their salaries only once a month. One Senator only draws his pay once a year Among the Senators who most fre quently call for their stipends Is Sen ator Vuorhecs of Indiana. It is said that he call on the Secretary for his alary oftener and draws it in smaller amounts than any ether member of the Senate. BUM O. Imvls of West Virginia Is a rich man, and uses tils salary for spending money. Whenever ho needs a little pocket money he sends his clerk Into the cashier's offlco and draws $60. $100. $200. and some times $600 at a time. Ho Uiarda at the Arlington Hotel, and lives with in his salary. Don Cameron of Pennsylvania, It is aaid, prefers hard money, but is not regular In calling for his pay. He does not carry any money with him, and runs a bill at the Senate restau rant, which I have heard often amounts to from $200 to $600. When 10 needs sny money he goes in to tbe cashier and tells him to send up to hi house $60 In ten-cent pieces, $100 in quarters, $200 iu half dollars, aud $ 109 or so la silver dollars. I have heard t suggested that Don, perhaps, used his salary la this way as a substitute for poker chips. Old David Davis U perhapa the mosr regular in drawing his salary. On the first day of every month he goes to tbe cash room aud mils for his money. Oae day I happened to be in there when tbe Illinois heavy weight came in for his pay. While tbe clerk waa getting it ready eld Da vid remarked: "I expect I give yon young men a good deal of trouble, calling for my money so often, bey cn?" "Oh, not at all," answered tbe clerk "If alt the Senators were aa regular as yourself, we would not have any trouble at all." "Ah!" said the Senator: "Are there any who draw more frequently than 1 do, eh - -hey eh?" 'Oh, yea, sir. a tittle every ana a great ma month." "You don't say ae," said Mr. Dav is. "Are there any who draw leas frequenUy than I doT "Yes, air. There is oae Senator who only draws onoe a year." "Ah! Eh, hey! Humph!" granted the old Senator. "He could draw it oat and get interest en it, couldn't ho key, oh?" and then rolling up his monthly salary which the clerk had handed him, he walked off mut tering to himself. -'Once a year, eh ! ought to draw It ont and get interest on It hey, eh?" Roscoe Cenkllng drew his salary once a month. When he resigned he sent one of his clerks up to the Cap itol and drew all that waa due him, including tbe day on which his resig nation waa road. He, however, was not in is seat on mat aay, nor was he at tho Capitol at all afterward dur ing the remainder of the extra session. Piatt of New York has a balance ot $ placed to his credit, which, if he dees not check out before the 1st of July, will he sent to him by the Sec retary of the Senate. One Senator from the South, who owns property, it is said frequently sells his salary before it ta due, ut a d I fount. I am told that once or twice, after having gtveu an order on the Secretary for his pay, by I lie way, ho has gone and drawn It out himself allowing his order to go to protewt and be dishonored. Sherman draws his money when ever he needs it, sometimes twice i month, and oftener it runs on two months. Pendleton draws up close every month when the Senate is ia session. Burnslde tends a draft on tbe Sec retary's office to his banker, at Prov idence, once a month, and the bank draws on the Secretary of the Senate regularly every month, whether ihn Settate Is in session er not. Anthony is the only Senator that draws once a year, and his banker attends to it for him. Fair of Nevada went off without drawing a cent, but his salary from the 4 th of March to tbe 1st of July will be sent to him, if he does not draw It out Iu the mean time. Fair is said to be worth $42,000,000. Ben Harrison drew on hh salary three or four times. In fact up to the adjournment of the last session that was all tbe business he did in Washington other than vote no with the Republicans during thedead-lock. Call of Florida is said to be the most improvident Seuator in the bunch. It Is said that he really does not know how to manage his own financial affairs. Senator Joe Brown, who looks like an early day Scotch Presbyterian, uaes his salary for living expenses in Washington. He draws bis money whenever his hotel 'presents its bill. Then he goes to the Senate cash man and complains about how much it costs to live in Washington. His living expenses, It is thought, how ever, do not exceed his salary. Last winter he boarded at the Biggs House but he has bought, or proposes to buy a house in which he will live, and, 1 la aaid, will enter scale.
