HOW LOBBYISTS WORK. The "Tipity AVItelictj" Club nml What It AVns Orennlzcnt To Do ( Honest .Men Deceived. Tho nii'thods of tho Washington lobby aro almost infinito in their variety, writes a corrospomlent to The Cincinnati Commercial Gazette. From furnishing and slocking great cstab- lishnients, ami running them on tho most expensive scalo of open establish ments, to tho wiles of the hotel loafer, who spots the man who comes for ofllcc and secures 5 for suppose 1 in fluence, there is a wide range, which admits of many devices. Recent attempts to carry out a now schemo in tho interest, of a photo-lithographic establishment hero which has long enjoyed a comfortable monopoly of t he government work has brought to light tho history of an organization which for shrewdness of design, cun ning in work and effectiveness, has probably never been surpassed by any of tho machinations of tho lobby. This lias long been known to a narrow circle as tho "Tipity Witohoty" club. It i3 only recently" that tlte fcal pur poses of its organization have come to light. It Wius a conception of Ilowgate, the great defaulter, at a time when ho was reveling in the fruits of his robbery. He mado a selection from such congressmen as lie thought could best serve his purposes. For most of them it is just to believe that they were totally ignorant of his plans or ulti mate designs. IIo owned the yacht Falcon. Ho rented an island in tho lower Potomac. Hero he erected a house of entertainment with govern ment material and with stolen funds. His guests sailed and feasted and had royal times in his secluded retreat. Later a fixed company was selected and organized into a club, under the peculiar title already given, and the yacht became its headquarters. This was done under the auspices of Norris Peters, the wcl-kuowu photo-lithographer, though Ilowgate was one of the active working members. The "Tipity Witchety"' club as organ ized consisted of twenty members. It is certain that only a portion of this number were allowed to know its real object. This was nothing more nor less than to smooth the way for heavy and continued appropriations from con gress, and to secure influence to obtain and hold as much as possible of the government business, which amounts annually to about $d00,OJO. It is quite as certain that enough wero in the secrets of the manipulators to make the venture a sure one. The support of the venal ones was doubt less for revenue only. Tho assistance of tho others when needed, especially as all appropriations asked for could be urged on plausible grounds, followed as a mutter of course from their having been the continued recipients of tho al most roval entertainments of Ilowgate or of Peters. The club was made up with skill. There wero men above re proach, whose standings in one or the other house of congress was and al ways has been unquestioned. These were tho selected and unconscious shields for the hurge scheme which they used to make respectable and ad vance. It is said that the strictly honorable section of-tho club wore not regular at tendants with those who were in for business. Tho former class was only taken often enough to enforce the idea of obligation. In this rep -el, as in all others, there was the most cunning management. The discovery ami flight of Ilowgate caused a general sen sation among all the members and dire consternat on among the revenue mem bers. When ho was out of the hands of tho law through his well-planned escape, relief came to his confidential friends in tho "Tipity Witchety com munity." When the influences aro sought which still conceal and protect Ilowgate, a study of the history of this club should not bo neglected." It sa le I the Po tomac and the Chesapeake, and it feasted and rested in tho ninnies of its river island. It coasted to New York. It entertained such congressmen as tho managers thought would strengthen its forces and advance its schemes. It dined frequently in tho city, and its floral displays and its table luxuries were the wonder of all who wero in cited to the feasts. For a timo it revel ed in prosperity, and those who havo recently come to know of its organiza tion and tho hold it secured on con-' grcssmon no longer wonder at tho ease with which thosj Who organized it long since secured a practical monopoly of tho vast government work of the class they were seeking. Tho patent ollice, with its groat work, is in their hands, and there has boon suflicient influence to practical) v shut out from coninetition nearlv all tho linns of tho country capable of do ing this very extensive and lucrative work. Whon Howgato was in chargo of the signal service and its printing of maps and other charts there was an iiunionso profit. Thodegrjo of monopoly now secured effects the same result, and though the club is no longer an active organization, its remaining momb?rs still enjoy excursions and dinnors at the hands of those who havo so richly profited and who still profit most gen erously from this monopoly. A glanco at tho membership of this noted creation of tho national lobby will throw furthor light on the subject which is partially discussed above. Those fatnil.ar with congress and with Washington will seo at a glanco how men who aro abovo suspicion were, without thoir knowledge, made to do, Vluty for lobby purposes among several who havo always benn recognized by men on tho inside as tho secret support ers of nngs and jobs. Those latter were the :u tivo workers in tho Tipity Witchety club, and the cunning pro moters of its revenue sohomos. In tho cabin of the Ilowgnte-Peters yacht hung a lare frame containing tho photographs of the members of the club. The title of each member was writton under his name. Tho picturo boro this inscription: "Ollicors and mombors of the Tipitv Witchety olub, orgunizod May 80. 1879, Washington. J). C." The framo was adornod with tho photographs of the following well known gontli men. and under each of ficer was his t itlc: N"rrl IV terj, iiilmlral. J (' S. hl.ii-Kl, m ii, vice admiral. I.

David Davis almost immediately after his election received a hint of what tho club meant, and promptly retired in disgust. All in all, it was the most cll'ectivo and influential schemes for furthering money-getting by tho projectors ami a few willing workers that have come to light in recent years. It prospered and waxed fat under the generous and helpful in fluences of tioneral Kcifcr's speaker ship. Hut tho events of its halcyon days aro worthy of a special chapter. A Tcn-Yenr-Old Heroine. Three months ago, writes a Cam bridge, Mass., correspondent of The Xcta York Herald, Mrs. Edward Unrry, wife of a day laborer on the Fitchburg railroad, living in the Helinont district, died from hard work and exposure, leaving five children to the care of her kind-hearted though rather dissipated husband. Tho oldest child. Nellie, 10 years of age, has acted as housekeeper since tho death of her mother, and has managed to clothe the backs and supply the mouths of her four younger broth ers from the $l..r)0 a day wa0es of their father. Last night it was very hot in their cottage, and Nellie, after putting the little folks to bed, and singing and fanning them to .sleep, put her father's supper on the back of the stove, and sat down to wait for his return, lie was late. The little clock on the mantel ticked oil" the hours and brought 9 o'clock, but no father. Then Nellie re membered that he had been ilrinkina since the Fourth and went out to seek li in. Failing to find him she returned, tired and worried with her heavy cares. She went to the little heated chamber to look at her sleeping brothers, and then resumed her place in the cha r, deter mined to stay awake until her father came, but the heat, combined with her hard work, was too much for the child, and she was soon sleeping with her head upon her arm. An hour later she was awakened by tho sound of falling timbers, and springing to her feet she saw the whole end of the house on lire, while clouds of smoke filled every room. What she did first she can not fell. All she knows is that when her first neighbor arrived lie met her coining out of the burning house with the last of herlitlle brothers in her arms. The other three were lying on the grass in front of the house in their night-clothes. Her eldest brother, Jimmy, sas she came up stairs and taking them one by one. car ried them out in safety, iler face is burned, and her liair is scorched, but othorwiso she is unhurt. The three .smaller ones aged -1 and G years were not awakened until the arrival of their tipsy father, who reached home with the lire company. The premises caught in an adjoining barn, probably from an engine spark, and spread to the house. The little heroine and her brothers were taken to the house of an aunt, in tho Dublin district, and to-day she has been receiving so many con gratulations that her little head is nearly turned. Several wealthy people who heard of her deed have made ar rangements to give her nn education, thinking so brave a girl should havo an opportunity to elevate herself. The Uride of the Period. Tho llrido of the Period does not look forward to the sweet communion at tendant upon souls consecrated to each other for the ministrations of lime, and tho bliss of eternity, but to the day when "She shall walk In silk attire, And siller liae to spare!" Marriage for her means simply a trous seau, and a tour, orange flowers and tulle, bridal gifts, cards, and a recep tion. She docs not rejoice so much in the society of her fiance, as in tho d ainond ho has placed on her linger, tho bril liancy of which goes far in her eyes to make up for his own lack of br.lliant parts. She looks to tho grandeur of hot' fut ture surroundings to mako endurable the companvniship of tho one to whom she will owe them, and to society, to reliovo her of his inconvenient tendor noss. A "thing of beauty" from tho faintest wave of her scented tresses to the sole of her aristoratieallv shaped foot, she will forego the attendant "joy forever" of shining. Fresh, graceful and de bonairo, she is ono who shows to ad vantage in "satin and sheen, and shim mer of pearls.1,' It is to bo expected that sho will consent to blush unseen, wasting her sweetness on the i.ir of n hum-drum domestic seclusion? Forbid it fashion and folly! With hor bride hood is developed tho incipient wing that shall bear iicr forth in her butter fly care or. "But bridal tours and receptions must havo an end, and regrets steal on with tho quiet hours that succeed them. 11 sometitnos growing weary in her pur suit of the vain and illusive, she would seek to lay hold of something tangible, shall sho look backward and face the palu ghost of tho might-have-been? -or forward to tho dearth of a loveless future? Neither. Let hor cast aside this unwonted dreariness, array herself in fair apparel, not forgetting the diamonds for which she litis bartered the moro priceless ruby of affection. anil pay with languid gruco hor devoirs to the ilear five hundred "friends" that it is not well to neglect. Or olse, from her oporn-box, lot her lh-ton night after night to tho impassioned recitations of love's triumph, and drop, in secret, n despairing tear to tho moniory of the lost Kdon, from which she has gone out solf-oxilud forever and ovur.

But the aualltv of it how can one describe that) It Is Impossible to do so without seeming to fan into absurd hyper bole. There is something eo winning, so "magnetic," In Mr. Gladstone's voice, as It was once more, and as we can hardly venture to hope that It will be again, that it is ncces oiry to seek for a simile. A cathedral bell sounding far away over a rfver, a waterfall heard a loner wav off in the stlllnesi of iileliL the sea rolling slowly In over a pebbly beach, a summer wlud blowing over n hilltop of piuci in each of these there is a strange,iude.scrib- auie quality wnicn sometimes makes one's eyes till ami ouc's throat contract for mere physical sympathy, and iu Mr. Gladstone's voice, when he will, there Is the same note. The admir able construction of his speech, how it began by a few personalities and references to his Immediate predecessors In debate, how It passed gradually to elaborate historical argu ment, how it turned to denunciation of the rival policy, how there came into it the touch of national poetry, aud the picture of Erin with the cup at her Hps picture finished with a touch of Virgil how it concluded with a solemn appeal for a "blessed oblivion of the past," aud "happiness, prosperity, and peace" for the years that are to come these, and the utter absence of any personal taint, any com plaint, any reference to the speaker's own per son, all can see who will read It, But that Tolce Is only an Inalienable memory. Tlio Pope's Interest in America, Leo XIII. feels an extraordinary Interest in all that relates to the United States, writes a Rome correspondent of Tht j7u York Sun. This was shown In his careful elaboration of the scheme or programme of matters to be discussed aud settled iu the plenary council of Baltimore iu November, JSS4. Every Item bad been carefully weighed by him at Koine, in consultation with the American nrchbinhops, In the preceding autumn. He gave them a full-length portrait of himself to be placed In the hall where they were to deliberate, so that he might, in a manner, preside iu person over their every proceeding. Indeed, the couucil, with its acts and decrees, were to tho venerable poutill a subject of especial delight and personal care. This was in a very partic ular manner the case with the creation of the new Catholic university at Washington, whose progress he watches with a keen interest, wbfch extends itself to every detail. Of scarcely less Intel est to him is the Amer can college here, which President Artlnc's timely interferenoe saved from the rnpaci "ua maw of the Italian governmen. If Leo XIII. were still In possession of his temporal do main there Is no doubt but he would gener ously second the zealous lalxirs of the present rector, Dr. U'Conncll, to make the American college in Home the worthy counterpart of the great National university at Washington. As It Is, he can only see to it carefully that this seminary of the American priesthood is Iu every way a nursery of priestly vlitue aud solid learning.
