Heppner. Oregon.
(From our regular correspondent.)
Washuoton, May 1, '89.
The average Government clerk
does not strain either his physical
or mental powers in the service of
his country. He is rather prone
to being absent, sick as often as he
dars, and to day-dreaming vhea
he is present Of course there is
.a respectable minority who work
hard, but as like as not you will
find on further observation that
then? are often men whos educa
tion and ability are not sufficient
to enable them to do even a decent
amount of work without great ef
fort. Thesa tatements are true
of both sexes, and of all offices
where extensive tschnical knowl
edge is not demanded.
But ther is one employe 10
each department who has to work
early and late, to take his worn
and worry homo with him, and bs
waylaid by all sorts of people at
all sorts of times, on matters of
shop. This employe is known to
cials. 1 believe that subtautially
nil his walking hours nee given to;
the n'Tiiirs of his office, which you
will MinenixWr includes tlio great
est number of widely different
bureaus of any of the executive
departments. Think of the Secre
tary having charge of patents,
pensions, parks, labor, education,
Indiana and lands, and a dozen
other things, all in a jthnble.
Secretary Blaiue performs his
labor with more ease than any
other member of the Cabinet.
His faculty for doing vast amount
of work without the appenrance
of strain is due no less To his
magnifiicent ability than to his
long training. Mr. Blaine's mind
is an instantaneous camera and a
single flash fixes the details of any
allair upon his nana, bo tar as
quickness is concerned, he is the
modal secretary. Whether it be
an obscure consulship or an im
portant treaty his mind acts with
lightening rapidity. Mr. lilaine
does not usually arrive at his office
before 11 o'clock, but he always
brings with a budget of papers
that has recivod his attention the
night before at his apartments in
the normandie.
The burly figure of Secretary
Windom enters the Treasury De
partment at 9 o'clock in the morn
ing and the grind begins. He
remains all day, until 5 o'clock in
the afternoou, in his offico, listen
ing to the endless procession of
visitors with their bewildering
variety of requests and complaints.
And in these days Mr. Windom
finds uet d for all the arts he learn
ed while iu the Senate aud while
formlly Secretary of the Treasury.
His smile never deserts him. Even
the Secretary's private' office is
continually crowded, and he has to
take important visitors to one side,
and in the little nook where the
windows overlook the river and
the far Virginia hills, a great
many annoying problems have
been solved,
Attorney General Miller is at
his desk from 8 o'clock in. the
morning to 6 o'clock in the after
noon, and he goes back to ths
Department at 7:30 to remain until
10 o'clock, attending to the busi
ness that has been virtually set
tled in the interviews of the day.
He has not contracted the habit
of taking work home with him.
Secretary Proctor is rather out
of the office-seekers beat, and his
Department is less closely associ
ated with the business interests
of the country. Therefore his life
is not.. 'in unpleasant one and the
silence of many of his hours is
only broken by the click of the
type-writer and the sound of his
own voice dictating to
his stenographer. He is a very
nervous man and dictates badly
from a natural inclination to do his
writing himself. In fact it may
be said of the majority of public
men that half of their slip-shod
sentences are the result of dicta
tion; an art very hard to ncquire
and nver acquired by one iu ten
of the men who attempt it.
The same comparative safety
from visitors is Secretary Tracy's
privilege, but Secretary Rusk's
callers are numerous, aud the
name of PoHtmastor General
Wannamaker's is legion. He sel
dom leaves his office before (J I'. M.

A REVOLTING CRIME.
Hanged their Father and Shot their Step
mother. Somehsht, Pa.. May 1. The myster
ious tragedy in Jefferson township yes
terday grows more revolting as the facts
appear. It now seems more than proba
ble that David aud George, the two sons
of old man shaw, who was 65 yeart of
age, hanged their father, and that David,
an hour later, shot his young stepmother
through the body as she was returning
from the barn to the house. The step
mother still lives and may recover. The
object uf their oriine was that they might
come into speedy possession ot the estate,
which is valuable.
LOST IN THE MOUNTAINS.
A Hiilney I)riiKBit Without Food for Nearly
a Week.
Albany, Oh., May 3. Information was
reoeived trom Hulsey this evening to
the eifeot that Major W. P. Smith, a
well-known druggist of that place, hired
a team a week ago and left for the foot
hills to collect certain ncoonnts. In
some unacoountablo manner he became
lost aud wandered into the mouutains,
remaining without food for nearly h
week. He was found to-day in an
almost famished condition, aud taken to
his homo in Halsoy. Ho is quite aged,
and his poor sight was doubtless the
cause of his beoomiug lost.
THE READY REVOLVER.
Death of the Youiij Man Who wai Shot
At 'Snlem
Salem, May 2.-F. H. Ogle, shot last
eveuiug by W. E. Hawkim, died to-day
ut noon. A aoroner's inquest was held,
ooiumenoing this afternoon and is still
in session at 10 o'olook, with some wit
nesses to be examined yet.
The testimony shows that Hawkins did
all the shooting and' that Ogle had no
other weapon only a pocket knife. The
testimony of MoNary, who was with Ogle
when shot, says Ogle reached into his
oout pooket at the time Hawkins oame
up, uud accused him of lying. The next
thing McNary knew Hawkins fired.
Physicians who attended Ogle and
mucin a post mortem examination, testi
fied that the pistol wound was the direot
cause of deuth.
