A correspondent writing from Madrid
gives some curious facts relative to the fire.
quent changes of government, or rather
changes of Cabinet, which take place at the
Spanish capital. In Madrid alone. we are
told, there are some 80, 900 Office holders, and
when Ministry falls these people fall with
it. AS there have been seven changes of
Ministry within two years, some idea may be
formed of the chaotic state of affairs among
the noble army of ofice-holders. Imme-
diately upon the forming of Cabinet the
army is recognized" by the retirement of
all its officers, from generals to lieutenants /;
the Governors of the provinces are removed /;
the staffs of the bureaus and departments,
and sometimes even the servants, are dis
missed. Then, as soon as the new Cabinet is
known, comes the grand descent of office
seekers upon the trail of the new Ministers.
These unfortunates find too late how dearly
bought their newly acquired honors are.
They are literally worried TO death; they are
compelled to 60 in hiding, to deny them
selves, to take their meals in the seclusion of
their departments, and steal home like thieves
in the night; to avoid the theatre, their
clubs, and even that much loved stroll on the
Prado, which is the golden hour in each
Spaniard's daily existence With such a
state of things, and with 80, 900 hungry ex-
office-holders hanging about cafes, drinking
cheap wine and ventilating their grievances,
it is no wonder that Spain is land of con-
spiracies and assassinations.

The Tlchborne Claimant. Z.

The Tichborne claimant, after triumphal
tour through the provinces of England, has
at last returned to London, accompanied as
usual by his two warm supporters, Messrs
Onslow and Whalley. He there held mon
ster meeting, at which 5000 people are re-
ported to have assembled. The claimant
made speech of an hours length, in which
he attacked, as usual, the arguments that had
been brought against him In the late trial,
and declared that he wanted nothing more
than for his fellow-countrymen to aid him in
obtaining a fair trial One Alexander Ken
nedy. an ex-sergeant of carbineers, came for
ward and declared the speaker to be the same
Sir Roger Doughty Tichbone who had COM
manded him in Ireland. At the conclusion
of the speeches the meeting unanimously
voted a resolution to the effect the claimant
was no other than Sir Roger Doughty Itch
borne, and ayowing that the counsel who had
hitherto undertaken his defense had not done
their duty. Even the press is coming over
to his side, the Morning Adoertiser remark
ing significantly that If the claimant Is really
no other than Arthur Orton, il is strange that
out of 3, 900 persons living in the immediate
vicinity of his birth no one should have as
yet been able to recognize him as the son of
the butcher of Wrapping.

The Invention of Gunpoxvder.

When was gunpowder first invented? Com
mon tradition has fixed the date as about the
year 1867, and the inventor as certain old
English friar, known as Roger Bacon. The
Germans claim the honor of first discovery
for one of their conntrymen, one Bartholdus
Scwhartz, also a monk. But Bartholdus
made no hint of his discovery until the year
Roger Bacon must remain in nossession of the the
field until newer evidences crop up. But
there is nothing new under the sun. After
all Bacon does not lay claim to having dis
covered gunpowder. ,ionly mentioning it as
something known in his time; and as the
worthy friar had studied among the Spanish
Saracens, ii is not at all improbable that he
drew the secret from one of their scientific
bo0ks.--ORce Week. .~ s.s. ..s.

James Fisk and shc Neyy.boy.

Stories of Col Fisk are constantly in cir

incidents which occurred not many months
before his death is. perhaps, one of the most
touching of any that, have been given to the
public This one Mrs; Fisk takes especial
her husband's kindness of heart and readi-
ness of sympathy to, help those who
needed aid. Col. Fisk had often noticed In
Twenty-third street little crippled newsboy,

At ii o'clock the boy was there, quite Gu

Col. Fisk then arranged with the boy what
part of the profits he should receive, told
him when the stand should be ready and sent
him on his way rejoicing. The plan was
very successful. Trade was good, and every
week the boy carried his share of the money
to his partner. Seeing the boys determine
tion, Col. Fisk quietly put the money aside,
and gave II ali TO the boy, releasing him from
his contract to pay any par. of the money to
himself. When Cdl, Fisk died there was
nowhere sincerer mourner tAan this little
newsboy, and the little stand on the corner
was heavily draped on the day of the burial.

ANOTHER reason for the personal hostility
of Schurz to the President may be found in
an incident which is related by the Missouri
StGGts ZeitnRg, German paper, whose au-
thority will not be questioned by the Senator
with impunity:
Immediately after Schurz came to WASH
ington as Senator he appeared at the White
House to procure office for his friends. His
first request was that the Office of Consul at
Lyons should be given to Linderman, who
had aided his election. The President con-
sented to make the change, and sent in the
nomination. In the meantime Schurz's
friends told him that the name of Osterhaus
was worth more to him than that of Under
man. Thereupon SchTz waited upon the
President and desired that Linderman's $ name
should be recalled. The nomination had
already gone to the country, and the Presi-
dent said its withdrawal would be an unjust
reflection on Linderman.. schurz persisted
and finally asserted that Linderman would
not make proper representative of the Gov
ernment. After reminding him that the
nomination had been made on his own re-
conimendation, the President, Indignant at
the Senator's persistence, said he would re-
call the nomination, but that he could not
consent in the future TO consider the Sena-
tors recommendations as conclusive If they
were TO be subject TO such caprice and vacil-
lation. "a

That Horrible Dinner of Crow

That Horrible Dinner of Crow.
One Daniel, whose surname is Voorhees,
An orator mighty, you know
Wrote letter not long since declaring
That, for one, he would never eat crow.
The diet, he swore, was disgusting; ..,-
The thought of 1t made him cry, "Oh!"
But that was before the Convention;
At Baltimore all dined on crow.
The Democracy now, for o decade,
Have been down in the valley of woe,
And rather than stay there forever, a..
They made up their minds to eat crow.
So they pounced upon one Doctor Greeley.
Who writes about farming, 80, so,
And he decided that for the occasion
He'd make respectable crow.
1t was dreadfully hard to support him, r .
For his record was awful, you know,
That Is from a::Tammany standpoint,
And then, nobody likes to eat crow.
We pity the Possums and Bourbons,
They stand In sorrowful row. .
And think with disgust Of what's coming,
That horrible dinner OF crow tFa t'T.8'
