hope republican. B>- Jay C. Sami. HOPE INDIANA The liver lias much to do with the circulation. How are your respective livers, gentlemen? Chicago waiters are practicing for the fee system during the world’s fair. One of them is in jail for glaryItalian immigration to this conn' try is peculiar in several respects. In the first place, a very consideral ble proportion of our Italian immigrants go back to Italy to stay there after spending a few years in this country and saving a little money here. Several hundreds of themsailed from New York for Genoa last week in the steamship Furst Bismarck, never to return here, and over a thousand others have left us for good since the beginning of September. This kind of thing is going on all the time. In the second place, less than one-third of the Italians who emigrate to this country are women, and more than two-thirds o( them are men. The men come here to make a fortune, leaving their wives, sisters and sweethearts to await their return. In the third place, less than one-half of our Italian immigrants ever try to learn to speak or read the English language) and only a very small proportion 0[ them desire to become American citizens. They live by themselves in certain quarters of the city, just as the poorer Hebrews do, and know hardly anything about American lif 3, ' The Italian people who come here, «f whom about 100,000 live in New York and its suburbs, are hardy, hard working, quick witted, frugal, loquacious, and far less given to violence than they are often represented to be. If all of them would learn the speech of this country, fewer of them would go back to Italy to stay there. It they would take up American ways, as the Irish, the Germans and others take them up, they would get along better than they do, and find life in New York more attractive even than in Italy. The papers which are printed here in the Italian language ought to tell them these things. Americub Vespucius Symmes. of LouisQlle, Jly., says the Indianapolis Journal, has on foot the organization of a party for the rescue of Verhxff, the Louisville boy who wandered off from Lieut. Peary’s party, in the Arctic regions, and who is believed by some to be still alive. In an interview in the Cour-ier-Journal Mr. Symmes says: I should like for six or eight young men who desire to immortalize themselves to volunteer to go to Greenland at the expense of the Government, but they would have to ra se money among themselves to pay for their outfits after reaching Greenland. After finding Mr. Verhocff he will take command of the party, and next October will lead the expedition to follow the wild animals to their homes in Symmesonia, where a new world will be found, a mild climate salubrious atmosphere. This Americas Vcspucius Symmes is a son of John Cleves Symmes, of “Symmes’s Hole” celebrity. The elder Symmes was author of the theory that the earth is a hollow sphere, habitable within, and open al the poles for the admission of light, and containing withip it six or seven concentric hollow spher s also opeu at the poles, and each presenting a large amount of habitable surface He spent a good deal of time and money exploiting his theory, writing and lecturing about it, and in 182;petitioned Congress to fit out an expe dition to test its truth. A few years later he wrote a work entitled “Theory of Concentric Spheres,” which excited some attention and consider able ridicule. Although a crank oi this subject, Symmes was a man o some note in other respects, having served as a captain in the regular army and achieved distinction in thwar of 1S12. About fifteen year ago the son revived his father’s ,the ory, and, as will be seen from th above extract, he still adheres to it A leader thoroughly imbued wit such a theory would be likely to ge as near the north pole as anybody.

UNlXE SAM’S NEW TENANTS. Changes the Clevelands Will Find at the White House, Washington Letter in New York Herald. Mrs. Cleveland will discover a few changes in the White House on her return to Washington. She will find the mansion illuminated throughout with electric lights, which were substituted for gas two years ago. In the Blue Room she will notice new silk tapestries on the walls, a ceiling frcshlv band painted with dedgns representing the clouds of rooming and evening, and furniture gorgeously re covered. She will observe that the Green Room has been papered in a lighter shade of green, and that th > groat vestibule has been much improved by redecoration Apart from these things, however, all will bo just as it was when she left the establishment four years ago. Everything in it will be in perfect order, just as if she had only gone away the day before. Mr. Harrison, before his d parthre, will follow the usaal cus om of l aving a thorough house cleaning, so that the residence may he in proper shape for the reception of Uncle Sam’s new tenants. On the 4th day of March, lb9 i, the White House will be a vacant dwelling. Mr. Harrison will have sent all his family away and made all preparations for his own departure. Mr. and Mrs. Cleveland will come to Wu hingtou a short time in advance and will take an apartment at one of the hotels. When the Harrisons •ante here, four ago, the Cleveauds invited them to stay at the Executive Mansion until Inauguration Day, but the offer of hospitality was declined. Owing to his recent bereavement Mr. Harrison will probably not return the compliment by extending a similar invitation to Mr. and Mrs. Cleveland. A little before noon on March 4 Mr. Cleveland will proceed alone to the Write House, where he will bo welcomed by Mr. Harrison. The outgoing President will have, his private carriage at the door, in which his coachman will drive Mr. Cleveland tad himself down Pennsylvania avenue to the Capitol, where the iucoraPresident will deliver his inaugural address. The new President and the ex-President will then return to gothcr to the White House, where Mr. Harrison will bid Mr. Cleveland goodby and will be driven away, leaving his successor in possession. Mrs. Clev land and Baby Ruth will soon after go to tho White House, in time for tho President and his wife to view the parade from the stand in front of the Executive Mansion. Presumably, Baby Ruth will occupy the sunny room over the front door of the White House which has occn during the last four years the nursery of Benjamin Harrison Medea and his little sister. Mr. and V,rj. Cleveland will .bring few be longings with them besides wearing apparel and toilet necessaries, because the government provides them with pretty nearly everything. Un - elc Sam gives them, rent free, a dwelling, furnished,lighted and heated. The table linen and bed linen, the glassware and silver, the crock cry for the kitchen —everything, in fact, is supplied except food, and part of that is obtained in the shape of vegetables from the garden,plant ed and tended by the government gardeners. In addition to what the sime-'o MMiito House conservatories will fu nish, the President's wife can have . artioads of roses and other (lowers from the Propagating Gardens if she wants them. If she wishes to have any article of furniture renewed or any alteration made about the mansion, she has only to communicate a request to the Com - missioner of Public Buildings and Grounds, and tho matter is attended lo at once. Col. O. H. Ernst, the pre,-out iucumbeut of this office, will l>e succeeded by a new appointee at the beginning of Mr. Cleveland’s administration. The post is alwavs he cl by an engineer officer of the army, who is ex-officio military alia the at the White House, acting as master of ceremonies there. Mr. Harrison was the first President to appoint a naval attache, Lieutenant Parker, 17. S. N., to serve as assistant master of ceremonies, and it is trot unlikely that Mr. Cleveland will make a similar appointment. Did Congress authorize Mr. Harrison to appoint a naval attache at the White House ? Of course not. The President of the United. States has a legal right to order the whole army and navy to follow him around if he chooses. Few people realize what an enormous power is vested iu the Chief Magistrate of this country. Not many monarchs are so powerful gs he. The Queen of England has no sucli control over affairs, and it is doubtful if the Emperor of -t-nnany is a mightier man. if Mr. Cleveland shall want a brigadiof infantry to guard little Ruth's baby earring - he has only to order it. and no one cau gainsay him By one stroke of ids pen the President can dismiss 2IMW0 Government o i ce holders and can appoint in their places as many Italian pean..t venders. The Civil Service law ha* no

authority over him. It is made for him to aoply as he may desire, and he can withdraw it Irons operation i! he wishes. By a few words of writ j ing it is in his power at any time to recall all of the ministers, consuls and other diplomatic officials repres- | euting this country in various parts of the world, and to do this he need not ask anybody’s permession. In 1 such a case the persons dismissed would be entitled to their travelling expenses home. But, if hepreferred to ' ’remove” them, they wou d be left stranded in foreign lands without a penny from this Government to fetch them back. Mrs. Cleveland, though the wife ol such a powerful personage, will have only five bed rooms at her disposal in the While House. The mansion is hardly more than an office building, and the President has only the use of a small part of it for private purposes. On this ac count the first lady in the land will not be able to comfortably accomodate more than two or three guests at a time, which ir unfortunate, because there are lots of people whe find it enjoyable to be entertained at the residence of the nation's Executive. Some day a President with a large family and an independent turn of mind will gently rebuke the country by hiring a house here to live in, utilizing tire official dwelling merely for business and ceremonial purposes. Fortunately, the housekeeping cares of the President’s wife are light. She is provided by the Government with a housekeeper, to superintend domestic affairs, though she must hire her own cook and maids. A steward, likewise engaged at Uncle Sam’s expense, takes general charge of the mansion, buys all the provisions, and acts as butler, oven arranging the State dinners. The President is also supplied officially with a valet or messenger. It is worth mentioning that a newly appointed Stewart always gives a bond of $20,000 to cover possible damage to the furniture and other domestic belongings of the White House, all of which are placed in his charge. However, he is not considered responsible for ordinary wear and tear for breakage. The Chief Magistrate must buy his owu carriages and pay his coachmen, though a groom for the stable is provided by the Government. The care, repairing and refurnishing the White House costs about $25,000 a year. For the present fiscal year the appropriation is $20,000; last year it was $35,000. Mr. Harrison will get his last month’s pay in Feb. 28 or 29. in the shape of a draft issued on a warrant signed by the Secretary of t he Treasury and sent over to the White House by a messenger. The amount of tins draft would be $-1,100.67, but four days’ extra pay will bo added for March. On the evening of March 3 he will go tu the Capitol, where he will seat himself at the big table in the centre of the President’s Room. This is said to be the handsomest room in the world, but the Chief Magistrate of the nation only uses it once in two years. It has a velvet carpet with a pile so deep that the footsteps of one who walks upon it are noiseless. The furniture is covered with red leather, and the ceiling is frescoed in the highest style of art. Mr. Harrison will take a chair between two great mirrors, which so throw back each other's reflections that, looking in either direction, he can see an interminable line of bis own images extending out of sight, I Up to midnight ho will be occupied in hurriedly signing bills, in order that they may become laws before the expiration of the Fifty-second Congress. It will be his last night of power. The next day he becomes a private citizen, with no more control over public affairs than a newly naturalized foreigner. The wife of the first Presidentelect had no White House waiting to receive h r. There was no Executive Mansion then. Mrs. Washing- ! ton and her husband lived in Philadelphia after thj General was inaug urated. In the directory of that city for 1797 the name of George Washington appears, and his address is given as No. 190 Market street, below Sixth. The house has been previously occupied by Benedict Arnold who is said to have dw it there in great state on the prooe ds of his profitable peculations, ha it./ many liv ried servants. Robei < Morris occupied the residence nexi door to the Father of His Country and the latter paid rent out of his salary of $25,000 a year, which waf commonly referred to at the time as “grossly extravagance. ’’ An Addition to the foots. ‘•Man wants but little hero below,** So Younjf aud Goldsmith say; But lovely women wants it all, Aud wants it r.ght away, . —Pack.

THE LADIES. The Italian King and Queen have announced that at their coming silver wedding they will not accept gifts from the people, nor will they encourage subscriptions tor useless expenditure, but tliat they will gladly accept as marks of the good will of the people the dedication of any in - stitution of charity or the inauguration of any work of benevolence. The new Century Club of Wilmington, an organization of but four years’ growth, has commenced the erection of the first distinctively women’s club house in the country. The building is being designed by a woman. Minerva Parker Nichols, of Philadelphia, and will be owned and controlled entirely by women. The object of the organization is to extend the sphere of woman’s influence, and to advance her mental growth. The many admirers of Carmen Sylva in this country will learn with regret that the talented Queen is still in delicate health*, and will be unable to attend the wedding of Prince Ferdinand. It is little more than twenty years ago since the young queen, so active and impetuous that she was known as the “Whirlwind,” rushed down the stairs with her usual velocity, slipped and fell, like the heroines in the novels, straight into the arms of the man who later became her husband. Fata pursues with unkindly severity the royal women of Europe, There is the Emoress of Austria, a recluse, ill with melancholia from the untimely death of her son; the Empress of Germany, wrolehed from the ill temper aud insane exactions of her sick and irritable husband aud the Princess of Wales mourning the death of her son and the open infidelity of her spouse. Indeed, the Czarina of Russia may be considered the happiest of them all, though there is always the fear of the assassin, for the Czar of all the Russias is very much in love with his Danish wife, and the home life of the imperial family is one of great domestic happiness. FOR THE HEAD. A semblance of oddity has crept into all the hats this winter. If they are not oddly shaped, they are sure to be trimmed with an odd combination of color. Milliners have had to resort to this in order to keep abreast of the styles shown in the gowns, which, like Joseph’s coat,are

of many colors. A rather large, graceful hat is of magenta felt. The brim, which has a wavy outline, is edged with a silver cord. Arranged in clusters upon the brim are exquisitely tinted orchids of changing shades of velvet. The low crown of the hat is made almost invisible by the full loops of sage green velvet which screen it. The brim of the hat Is faced with this same shade of velvet.

VI - AS nnKSSY AS CAN BE.

A Frenchy little evening bonnet much admired is made of jewelled passementerie, somewhat stiffened and bent into an odd shape which lengthens out in the back. The prssementerie has a glistening gold surface, upon which are imbedded imitation garnet turquoises. The front of the bonnet consists of loops of pale yellow, blue and pink ribbon, which tower above the jewelled crown. In the midst of all this splendor are caught two sombre lace pompons heavily jetted. The pompons are so placed that one falls over the back of the bonnet. Narrow black velvet tie-string are used, spangled with gold.
