Some Points on Dissappointment.
Now that the administrative machine
is moving more smoothly and appoint-
ments tooflice are being made with
more ease and rapidity, says the Wash-
ington Post, there will very naturally
be a larger output of disappointments.
When the average man becomes an ap-
plicant for place he makes the mistake
assuming that his personal desires of
should outrank all other consider ations.
He can see no merit in the claims of his
opponents and no flaws inw his own rec-
ord. It would be much better if Sena-
tors and members of Congress would
take pains to correct all such errors in
the minds of their office seekings con-
stituents, but it is easier to allow the
victim of such illusions to find out for
himself.
Men who hold sudh good opinions of
themselves and who are given to un-
derestimating the virtues of their op-
ponents are, of course, very much dis-
appointed and angered when they fail
in their purposes. When their rivals
succeed they immediately begin to
take a gloomy view of the situation and
expect alllof their friends to join them
in the unpleasant occupation. If the
friend is not so inclined he at once he-
comes an ex-friend. The gentleman
who is disappointed is due for a season
of gloom and those-who would retain
his friendship miist view the future of
the party and country with consider-
able misgiving.
If -the disapointed office-see ker were
shrewd he would make a radical depart-
ure from this moldy old custom. By
pursuing such a course he but bores
the community in which he resides,
‘ and makes miserable the life of the
friends in whose circle he moves. The
sympathy of the peOple is always with
the ma’n who loses, but a motion to
make such sympathy permanent is nev-
er popular. Let the ofiice-seeker who
fails of success profit by these some-
what scattering suggestions, and we
are confident that he‘ will feel much
better in the end; His friends and
associates will be sure to.

OPERA HOUSE.
The famous Gilmore band will give a
concert in the Opera House, Tuesday
afternoon, April 4th. The New York
Musical Courier (always, authority for
musical matters in the Metropolis) says:
“Mr. Reeves speaking of his new place .
indicated that he was perfectly at home
in wielding the baton over this great
ensemble of solo artists, and we sub-
stantiate that fact for the reason that
he has kept the band fully up to its old
standard of excellence,and its work was
remarkable not only fOr its precision,
but for the thorough-understanding be-
tween the conductor and his men and
though it had but three programme
numbers it had to play five encores to
each number, to satisfy the musical ap-
petites of the audiences, the selections
rdnging from the “Benedictions of the
Poignards” from the H‘ugenots to the
clever fantacie on “Listen to my tale
of woe.” We are more than delighted
to state that the great organization
founded by the great Gilmore is to be
perpetuated and that Mr. Reeves has
followed his life long friend as his suc-
mesor in the directorship of America’s
greatest band. ” . ‘
OPERA HOUSE .
“Lost in'Londo’n” will be presented

'fLost in London,” at the Bedford Ave-
nue Theatre last evening. It is some
time Since the familiar play has been
seen in this city and a warm welcome
,was accorded the gifted actor, Mr.
Newton Beers, and his capable sup-
porting company“ The work oftho
star last evening in- the character of
Job Armroyd, the wronged. patient",
sufl'ering husband. was all that could
be desired, and his effective acting
evoked numerous evidences of appre-
ciation. Miss Lora Addison Clift, as
Nellie Armroyd, the erring Wife, ren-
dered the star capable support and was
the recipient of flowers and much ap-
plause. Miss Kate Romaine and Chas.
Thropp displayed marked ability in
their respective. roles. The dancing
specialties by Miss May Lovington dur-
ing the second not were executed With
skill and grace and contributed‘one of
the most enjoyable features of the per-
formance. '

state Prison received considerable at-
tentiOn in the House yesterday. Mr.
Brothwell of Torringtoh introduced a
resolution authorizing the prison com-
mittee to employ an attorney and a
stenographer and to send for persons
and papers. This was at variance with
the senate resolution creating a jomt
special committee and it was opposed
by the democrats as an attempt on the
part of the republicans to whithwash
Warden Chamberlain. The resolution
was favored by Mr. Wood of Manches-
ter, Mr. Barlow of Stamford, Mr. Gris-
wold of Essex . and Mr. Rockwell of
West Hartford. Mr. Hotchkiss and
Mr. Callahan of New Haven. Mr, Lees
of Westport and Mr.Healey of Windsor
Locks argued. against the measure and
spoke in favor of a non partisan joint
committee. Mr. Wood finally moved
to table the matter and the motion pre-
vailed by a vote of 109 to 72. . '

resolution and moved that it be indefin-

without taking action on the matter.

Senator Pov’er Desires to be
Included With Roach.
HE IS ANNOYED BY 'ATTACKS IN
NEWSPAPERS.
WASHINGTON, March 30.-—The Senate
galleries were crowded yesterday with
people who anticipated a debate “ on the
Roach inquiry resolution. They were
disappointed, howeVer, for Senator Hoar
called up the reports in the Mantle case,
and Senator Pugh made a long argument
in favor of seating the three men claim-
ing seats in the Senate under the appoint-
ments ' of Governors. A discussion of
this question arose, but it was cut off'by
a motion to go into executive session.
Just before the Senate went into execue
tive session Senator Power of. Montana
rose to a question of privilege, and refer-
ring to a rumor printed in a Washington
newspaper intimating that the resolution
respecting Mr. Bosch might be amended
to include Power, announced his desire
to meet ‘auy and all. charges that might
be in existence or could be produced
against him. At the time the Senate was
trying the contest for the seat of Power
and Saunders it was said that Power had
been indicted in the West for a felony,
and Senator Turpie denounced Power in
a Speech opposing his claim to a seat. It
is this old charge, which has been re-
vived, to which Senator Power referred. ‘
Mr. Power said that his success in party
strife had caused a competitor to try to
vent his spleen on him through the press
and in every conceivable manner possible.
Out. of respect to his State, the countr'y
and the Senate he could not allow these
aspersions to go Without notice, and he
respectfully courted and demanded the
most careful and thorough investigation
by a special committee. He asked that
the cause of the remarks made by Mr.
Turpie be thoroughly looked into. That
Senator had seen fit to use language to-
wards him that did not become a Senator
unless he could prove at least some of
the allegations made.
Senator Chandler offered a. resolution
referring Mr. Power’s request to the .
Elections Committee.
Senator German suggested that the
resolution go over for the present, and
expressed the hope that the Senate would
fix a day hereafter for the consideration
of all such matters. If the Senate was
going to investigate the transactions
which had occurred pridr to the' election
ofSeuators, he said, the matter hadr bet-
ter be taken up deliberately and all
such cases brought to the attention of
the Senate and disposed of. There would
be certainly, he believed, quite a number
of them among his friends on the right,

delayed until the' Mantle case has been
disposed of. 0
