Editor Ohkoon Scout:
"When the gavel of tho j)rcsidcnt. of
tlio 6cnato and the ppenkor of tho
Iiouho of rcprvsontutivei falls upon tho
dusk nt exactly 12 o'clock each day,
ilaga arc at tho Funic moment hoisted
upon tho poles that rise from tho crests,
of tho cupolas on both ends of tho cap
ital. The moment that cither the sen
ate or the Louso adjourns the Hag on
that wing of tho building goes down. I
One ha only to get a view of tho caj-,
itol to know if either, or if both houses
of congress are in pension. '
Tho Hag duty is performed by tho I
oldest employee of the capitol John
Chauncey who came to Washington t
with Thaddeus Stevens, "the great!
commoner," and when tho latter he-1
came so weak that he could scarcely
walk, Chauncey used to carry him up
and down tho marble stairways to and
from his carriage. It was to him that
tho statesman made the remark since I
quoted, when ho was carrying him
into the house one morning as usual,
"Chauncey, I wonder who will carry
me when you are gone?"
Mr. UJiauneey lias been m the cm-
ploy of tho house ever since, and an
other duty of his is to see that the re
publican members arc all in their pla
ces when an important vote is taken.
Tho democats have for tho same duty
on their side of the hall, u man by the
namo of lice Hill, and these two know
the haunts and habits of every mem
ber of tho house. If uvote is to lie ta
ken at midnight it is tho duty of
Chauncey and Hill to see that the
members of their respective parlies are
present or paired.
Tho prohibitionists of the District of
Columbia aro in no wise discouraged
by tho rebufr with which tho I'latt bill
for prohibition in tho District of Colu
mbia met last week. They did not ex
pect n very much better fate for tho
bill at present, but tho queston will
not "down" any more than Uanquo's
ghost, but will continue to confront
congress and tho executive until vic
tory bo won. .
On last .Sunday aftornoon there wa
a tcmperunco mass-meeting at the
Congregational church, which was
filled to overlowing. It was in behalf
of tho soldier'B and sailor's home here,
a, department of tho W. 0. T. U., and
a generous collection was taken up.
Several congressmen were on tho plat
form and took part in tho proceedings.
Ex-Qov. (now representative Long) of
Mass., who opened tho meeting said
that the prohibition question is of
more vital importance to tho people
than the removal of taxes on lumber
and sidt, and it is a question on which
all who agreed could stand together,
irrespective of parties or sections.
Congressman Kerr, of Iowa, next
spoke, saying among other things that
ho was proud to represent a stato
which refuses to license saloons for
public rovonue. Representative Cuteh
con, who was next introduced, argued
against high license and in favor of
legislative prohibition. Tho question,
ho thought, divided itself into two
points, tho relation of tho person to
tho drinking habit, and tho relation of
the stato to tho Jiquor traffic. Law,
ho said, is nothing but formulated
public sentiment, and children ought
to bo taugnt their duty 'through the
influence of tho schools. Talking to
tho soldiers from the Home, the arse-
mil ano tno imrraous, wno wero pres
ent, ho saiil they wero the men who
needed most to keep sober. Many a
man in the late war, ho added, had
died a martyr to tho druukeness of his
superior officer.
When Senator, I'latt presented in
tho Senate, this week, several myro pe
titions in favor of prohibition in the
District, ho referred to one signed by
37-1 citizens hero, saying that it had
been stated by some of tho city papers
that the petitions sent to the Senate
for prohibition in the District had
been signed by women and children.
Ho mentioned that one in his hand
from local citizens was signed by many
men of high business standing. He
added that ho was always proud, how
over, to presont bucIi petitions from
women.
My tho way, tho last of this month
will bo tho "Women's week" in Wash-
mgtou. Prominent womon worker
who havo in charge the arrangements
for tho International Council of Wo
mon to bo held hero havo for several
wcoks boon immersed in tho prelimi
nary biusincbs of tho conlerenee. Tho
busiest preparations aro in progress,
and they aro careful to tell you that it is
in no sense a woman Biilrrago conven
tion. Women who never thought
specially of woman suffrage aro com

ations across tho Atlantic, all sorts of
associations in which women work.

devoted to tho study of science, math

comes to the women of America to tell
the storv of her Hindu sisters and to
ask for huln to 'enable these Hindu

In the concluding chapter of her
very interesting book, "Tho lligh-

"After many years of careful observa
tiou and thought, I have come to the
conclusion that the chief needy of

proceeds to set forth her plan for holp

A woman finely educated ao Raina

tells the pathetic story of tho hampered

such a woman will add interest and
value to the sessions of the Interna
