iNFORMATiON WANTED.
Some time ago one of the govern-
ment departments, in order to secure
information cont‘ernlng the employes
under its jurisdiction, sent to each a
blank to be filled in with the. data de-
sired Many amusing answers were
received a few of which are given be
low.
One statement called for was “Col
or." Various replies were made in re-
sponse to this ’query. One. man an-
swered by writin “English Indian."
.Igllsh ludian" may
be is not explained; possibly some.
painter can enlighten us as to this.
The colored members of the force did
not take kindly to this question. How-
ever. most. of them answered by meek-
Iy writing the word "black" but one
“lady of color," evidently considering
herself too aristocratic to be classed
with the black race. answered by us-
ing the word "light," while a negro
man eased his conaience by writing
“brown." Another colored man an-
swered the question by bluntly say-
ing “No." it would seem Dmbable he
liad lenmed that black is not a color
at all, but the absence of color, hence
his "No" might by deduction, be taken
to mean black.
The blank also contained a space
preceded by the word "Birthplace.”
One poor fellow wrote as follows: “At
sea under the British flag.’ but he
failed to say whether or not be consid-
ered himself a man without a country
One very frank mortal showed his
contempt for urban life by mailing the
statement than-he was born “in the
country."
A, space was left for information in
reply to the words “Marital condition"
This query. drew forth a number of
mirth- provoking answers One young
fellow. seemingly‘wlshlng to be. very
explicit..replied, "About to be mar-
ried." Another son of Adam, appar—
ently am. so conscientious, wrote “Not
single." lie neglected to state, hOW-
ever, whether he had been divorced or
if he still had one or more wives. One
doubtless thinking that the truth, the.
whole truth and nothing but the truth
would suffice, wrote “unsatisfactory,"
while yet another evidently mom for-
tunate in her matrimonial venture,
very neatly and clrcfully wrote the
word “good.-“ But the climax came
when one woman boldly stated her
case by the use ofione word. which if
not elegant. was at. least very Impres-
alve, for what she wrote was "hell“. ‘—-"

PARKER ON THE PANIC.
Ridicule: Republican Pretentious That
Democrats Ar. Responsible.
CINCINNATI, Ohio, Oct. 13.—Judge
Alton B. Parker, in an .address here
last night..dwelt for sometime on the
‘ present panic, and held up to ridicule
the pretensions of the Republicans that
the Democrats are responsible for it.
The plank in_ the platform relating to
cases of indirect contémpt, he discus- '
sed as follows:
“Among the. affirmative. questions
that i wish first to take 11p is a [dank
iu the Democratic platform which pro-
vides that in cases of indirect con-
tempt there shall be a. trial by jury. I
understand that some of out‘ Republi-
can speakers in Ohio have undertak-
en ta say that this is an effort upon
the part of the Democratic party to
secure class legislation because it was
demanded by organized labor. I want
to say to you in the first place, that
there is no truth in it. i happened to
be a member of the committee on the
platform of the. last Democratic Na-
tional convention, and of the sub-com-
mittee on platform as Well, and i
heard every man who came before that
committee to make an address, and no
one of the representatives of organ
lzed labor--, and they number some of
the foremost citizens in this country——
asked for any special privileges or any
special legislation.
“What they asked ft, was that in
cases of Indirect contempt there
should be a jury trial, and not for them
but for everybody. There has been
an attempt, so I am advised, here. in
Ohio by some men who ougirt to know
better. to argue that in some way this
was an insidious attempt by labor and
by the Democracy to take away from
the coIIrts some rights that the courts
ought, to have, to really nullify the or-
der of courts when made in contro-
1ersies upon which proceedings for
contempt are based. " .
