W DUTI10S WMLK IN THE
KATIONAIi CAPITAL.
By Robert J. Render,
(United Fra Staff CoraepondenL)
WASH&INOTON, D. C-. Jan. 29.
When Col. E. M. House comes to
Washington to confer as a friend
and adrlBor -with President Wilson,
his routine constitutes a good lea
eon in "naklng hay while the sun
shines." Here Is an outline of 24
hours with the world famous "sphinx
In a felt hat" when he comes here.
House generally drops Into Wash
ington from New York at night.
He is met at the train by a White
House automobile and taken to the
White House. Sometimes the Pres
ident greets him briefly that night
but more frequently not. House us
naly goes to the room always as
signed to hlmi It is near that of the
President. ,
The following morning he does
tiot breakfast with the President. He
has his choice of breakfasting in his
own room as the President does
or of coming downstairs in the man
sion and eating in the dining room.
He always prefers to eat in the
dining room and he eats there us
ually alone.
After breakfast he calls for a list
lot the day's engagements, arranged
tft his request beforehand. They in
clude conferences with personal
friends, members of the cabinet and
-ample allowance for any time the
President desires. - The names of
Counsellor' Frank Polk, Secretary
Lansing,1 'Attorney General Gregory,
Postmaster'1 General Burleson, and
Secretary McAdoo always appear on
the day's' program. All are warm
friends of House.
These "'-'Engagements generally
tart about' 11 o'clock in the morn
ing. House walks to most of them,
os the offices of his friends are
within a radius of a few blocks of
the White Houbb.
Up to 11 o'clock, however, he us
ually holds open to see the Presi
dent. - His time with the President is
seldom long. House may be reading
in his room, with the President read
ing or working In his study nearby,
when the President will suddenly
come in to' him or ask that House
igo into the study. Their talk to
gether may be IS minutes or it may
e two hours. When they part.
House probably will not see the
Presitent again until the next visit.
VheTe is never any ceremony be
tween them. Each "knows" the
other.
House generally stays at the White
liouse until either the noon train
or S o'clock ' train for New York.
"When he goes on the noon train hiB
time is so crowded that some pecul
iar engagements are made for him.
As examples, on a recent visit, an
appoinbaent was made for House to
'see man while riding in the auto
mobile from' the White House to the
'train. Others saw him briefly at
'the station. Still another was given
time on the train from Washington
to Baltimore and one man talked
"with him' from Baltimore to Phila
delphia. With all his visits and conferences
Col. House has yet to give out any
news. He is the silentest man in the
world when it comes to discussing ob
jects to his visits here. This silence.
when he went abroad last year for
the President, won him the reputa
tion of "sphinx in a felt hat."

MINSKE-DILLON BOUT
LEAVES DOUBT TRAIL
New York Promoters Will Seek to
Stage Return Mutch With
a Decision Given,
By H. -. Hamilton,
(United Pra Suit Correnondent)
NEW YORK, Jan. 29. The two
bouts staged recently In New York
Between Billy Miske, the light heavy
weight demon of St. Paul, and Jack
Dillon, the Indianapolis whiz, have
accomplished at least one thing.
They have proved beyond question
that the fans never will be satisfied
as to who is really the better man
until the two have had a chance to
mill it out in a long bout with a
referee's decision tacked onto the
last round.
Each bout between the two in New
York has resulted in an overwhelm
ing opinion among New York news
papers in favor of Miske. Each time.
however, there have been enough
dissenting voices to make it quite
apparent that enough of a shade was
not earned to warrant a decision.
In the first bout, two papers award
ed a decision to Dillon, while two
others called the bout a draw.
Such slamming and banging as
has been Indulged, in by these two
boys certainly calls for a better op
portunity than has been afforded in
New York, with a referee who re
fused to recognize that Queensbury
rules call for a man to fight with
one arm free. They deserve a bout
somewhere where the proceeds will
be enough to compensate them for
the splendid exhibitions they give.
Also, they deserve the decision that
would be given.
New York promoters undoubtedly
will be after a return match between
the boys. The fans like that kind
of milling and they'd be the great
est attraction possible, with the ex
ception of Les Darcy.'ln their divis
ion. It is not improbable that Darcy
will be matched with one or the
other.

THE LURE OF GOLD
How It Drew the Half Crazed East
to California In 1849.
WAS A WILD RACE FOR RICHES
The Exoitement Caused by the Die
eovsry of the Precious Metal, ths
Fury With Whloh the "Yellow Fiver
Raged and the Ruth to the Coaat
One of the most exciting ierlods in
the United States of a commercial
character was tho wild rush of people
from the eastern part of tho country
to California lu 1848 and 1840, follow,
lug tho announcement of the extensive
discovery of gold. It looked as If the
faces of all eastern ucopla were turned
west through the exaggerated stories
that were published of the vast quan.
titles of the yellow metal that were
everywhere in evidence.
The height of the exoitement was
reached when on Pec. 5, 1848, Presl
dent Taylor announced the discovery
In bis message. The abundance of gold
was such, be said, as could hardly be
believed were It not for the reports of
officers on the public service who had
seen the mines.
Too flrst question that entered the
mind of the eastern prospector was
how to reach the dlgglnKS. Till spring
came the overland route was closed.
But the way by sea was open and to
dwellers on the seaboard was far the
better.
Then beguu a series of most unusual
advertisements in tho ncwsiniers.
Manufacturers of rubber goods adver
tised tents, beds, gold bags and camp
outfits! Uuo publisher got out a book
containing tlfty-four eucrovlngs of im
plements used In washing gold from
sand. A manufacturer advised all go
ing to the gold country to take aloug
ono of his gold washing machines.
Such advertisements as "An oyster
bouse will tie sold low; proprietor is
going to California," and "For sale,
for a hundred dollars, half a light,
easy business that pays a handsome
prollt, as the advertiser Is going to Cal
ifornia," became common.
Every ship, brig, schooner or sloop
that was half lit to go to sea was
scraped, painted, fitted with bunks or
cabins and advertised as an Al, fair
sailing, copper bottomed, copper nailed
vessel, bound for San Francisco direct
or via Cbagres. Before the middle of
December four ships loaded with ad
venturers left New York, and six oth
ers were to sail in a few days.
A New York paper found fifteen res-'
eels loaded for California and reported
many more ready to go to that country
from Boston, Salem, Philadelphia, Bal
timore and Now Orleans.
Many went out as Individuals, while
thousands Joined companies or sssocls
tlons which chartered or bought ships.
Many associations chartered shins and
sent them a round the Horn, while tbey
Journeyed overland. Many of these as
sociations had odd titles as. for In
stance, "the New York Yellow Fever
company."
By the end of January. 1849, eighty
vessels had set sail for San Francisco
via Cape Horn, fourteen for Cbagrea
and two for Vera Cruz, carrying, all
told, over 5,700 passengers.
The newspapers spread broadcast all
sorts of exciting rumor, and with the
arrival of each batch of letters the
gold fever raged more fiercely than
ever. A letter from a gentleman bi
California stated that lumps of gold
a pound in weight bad frequently bcea
found and that good sized pieces coo id
be dug from the crevices In the rocks.
Every ship that sailed was so crowded
that temporary bouses were built on
Its deck, and by the middle of March
more than UfiW gold h miters bad left
for California.
Much trouble followed those who
passed through Blextco. on account of
the bitter feeling that bad beeo en
gendered by the recent war with that
country, and ' all along the routs
through Mexico were sold to be strewn
the bones of those who bad been mur
dered. Early in March the great emigration
overland began, and scores of compa
nies and thousands of men attached
to no company set off for the gold
fields. In less than three weeks, It is
aid, 2 ,860 wagons crossed tbe Missis
sippi at St Joseph and 1,5X10 at Savan
nah Landing and Council Bluffs, Tbe
country, it was said, for miles and
miles represented a great tented field.
Toward autumn tbe first of tbe over
land emigrants came streaming across
the mountains. In less than two years
after the, discovery of gold close to
100,000 emigrants found their way io
California in search of the yellow met
al. Philadelphia Press.
Bell Tenss.
The peculiar magic In tbe tones of
a bell is due to its striking not a sin
gle note, but a chord, and to obtsln
the perfect octave entails sn immense
mount of calculation as well as skill.
The bell caster, therefore, hss to be
not a mere mechanic, but a highly
trained specialist.
