A good story Is Iming told In Wash ington of a olahn agent w iio recotitl> y was told to v. a Ds^cia j. when ho g/iftl family and fine presence. The (laitn wasa jtist one for (juartennas- Ir sio»cs nirnislied during the war ^ ihe amount of ^W),000, and lia<l been jximding for about •vventy years. Tlie all orney was an old ac<|uaiutane< and friend ofthefamily, and wax prom- l«e<l ten per cent., or about $0,000, for procuring payment. He went to work in earnest. He saw the Eecretary of ;, War and the Quartermaster General, and exerted his eloquence en per suasively that the claim was made the subject of special investigation. The attorney watched the course of the Claim through all the intricaclesof the Ted tape of the department, saw that the evidence was furthcoming at the ptoper stages of the case, and finally after nearly three n^onths labor, re- eeiyed uotlfication to call at the Treas ury department with his client to re ceive a warrant for the amount. The^' Went and received the warrant’ but the ^ash-room was closed, so the money could nq^be drawn. It was Saturday. was too gallant to mani fest any disTrn«>$ ot-fTis client by re taining possesion of tiie warrant until his fee was secured, as ho had a right to do, and besides, had lie not known her for fifteen years? The warrant Was, therefore, left with her, and the lady promised to come to the qfilce on Monday at 1 o’clock, to get the money and settle with tlje attorney. This was satisfactory to him, and the prospect of having, on the next day hut one, $G, 000 of hard cash in his pocket opened his heart. “Well, Mrs. Blank,’’ said he, “we have had a hard fight and have wou il. Let us go to Lorjekan’s hud have a lunch.” They went. Money was no odject to the attorney then, and an hour later, when the waiter brought him a check for $19 2f> he threw him a twenty dollar bill and told him to beep the change. ^‘^|ne o’clock on munday came, but fl,Q bewitching widow failed to aj - pear. The attorney remained at his pfticp until 6 o’clock making plans for •the expenditure of the $(i,000. Tues day morning he received a telegram dated New York: “I sail for Bremen. Will return and see you in the fall.” few days ago he received a lettoj from his fair client dated Monaco.
