SITTING BULL AND THE DOMINION

Washington, March 2l.-An official COM
munication has been forwarded to Assistant
Secretary Of State Seward by the United
States consul. James w TAYLOR, at Winni'
peg, Manitoba, in reference to the move
men.s and supposed intentions of Sitting
Bull. Referring to recent statements made
on the authority of Col. Mcleod, command
ing the Canadian mounted police, that Sit
ting Bull has not crossed the northwestern
frontier with hostile purposes, the consul
adds that owing to the mild winter. bands
Of buffalo still range the plains between
Wood mountain and Cypress hills. and
there il every probability that hunting par
ties Of Indians freely cross and recroas the
frontier in pursuit of buffalo. 1t ia not
probable that Sitting Bull has trusted him
self south Of the line, but the consul says he
h.s no doubt that the followers of that chief
. little regard to his location when enga-
red in the chase. The consul states that
while he discredits late rumos Of hostile
Invasion he would repeat his conviction that

Wa rumors from Europe are t%hickening
and it is extremely probable that but for the
attitude Of Austria and Germany, England
would precipitate a conflict with Russia and
the proposed congress would be a thing still
born. The difference between the two latter
powers il said to be a refusal on the part of
Russia to be ultimately bound by the decis-
ion of the coming congress of European ma
lions and the objection IN the part of Eng
land to Russian movements in the direction
of the Bosphorus and Dardenelles. Russia
admits the right of the powers to discuss the
terms of the treaty and there her concessions
seen to end. In other words the congress
may go on. If its conclusions suit Russia
she will accept them. Otherwise she will
not.

The national house of representatives has
performed one act for which it is entitled to
the sincere thanks of every resident of the
western territories. 1t has passed a bill
which provides that all speculation in mail
contracts must cease. A contract sub-let
will, if the bill becomes a Law, be annulled.
This is a fatal blow at a n iniquitous system
which has largely retarded the progress of
the west. The resident bidders, the respon-
slble men who put in their estimates with a
view to supplying efficient service, haye in
variably been crowded off the track by spec
ulators who have agreed to perform the
work at figures which would not begin to
pay for the proper equipment and mainte.

THE PHoHoGRAPn AND AlREPnoNE.

NulSISO inter OCeIns
The wonders of the photograph increase.
The instrument has been experimental
with in every way, and there seems little
doubt but that when the invention is per-
fected it will be applied to many things
net now thought OF. Professor Edison, the
inventor of the phonograph. has already i'm
proved his carbon telephone. In the two
previous inventions the diaphragm was
section of rubber tubing. He has discov.
cred that by bringing the diaphsram into
immediate contact with the disk, a con.
siderable increase in the force of ar,icula-
is secured, and that the thickness Of the
diaphgram could be increased a. least three
times without affecting il. BY this method
vibration gives place to pressure. We will
next hear that Mr.. Edison has combined
the telephone and phonograph and veiy
much increased the usefulness of the latter.
In fact, the photograph suggested what he
calls the sirephone, an instrument into
which words can be aiticulated, gathering
such force as to be heard a number Of
miles with great distinctness. The aire-
phone is, in short, a talking fog-horn, by
the aid of which captains Of vessels at sea
may converse easily when three or four
miles apart, aud by means of which signal
station officers could warn vessels coming
on q dangerous coast to keep off. The
airephone would be an important adjunc,
of all signal stations, anG could be adapted
to all the uses to which fog horns, etc arr
DOW applied.
A monograph with an %airephone attach
ment would not be q pleasant thing to con
template, if it kept late hours but it would
have its uses. Still, it will strike the ma,

THE CHICAGO PENSION AGENCY.

Washington, March 1S.-Miss Ada Sweet
was to-day reappointed as pension agent at
Chicago. 1t is a clear case of civil-service
reform, and is in accordance with the pledges
made by Secretary Schurz to Miss Sweet a
year ago, that she should be continued in
Office at the expiration of her term. The
president, however, did not seem to under
stand this as he intentionally misled Mrs.
Mulligan, who came here with an over
whelming mass of papers in the belief that
there was a prospect of her appointment.
Miss Sweet acted perfectly unconcerned
about her reappointment, and has not been
here, and had no one except Congressman
A.ldrich to urge her claim, she seeming to
rely upon Schurz's promises. Mrs. Multi
gan came with recommendations from every
person in Chicago whose Endorsement was
worth anything, and has been supported by
Senator Davis and several congressman.
She had enlisted in her service a number
Of senator from other states, and her cam
paign, although unsuccessful, was an unusu-
ally brilliant one. Oglesby kept out of the
fight, except to recommend Jesse Moore.
President Hayes has seemed to show prefer
ence for Mrs. Mulligan's appointment from
the time her application was filed. and en-

would have otherwise gone back to Chicago
after having left her papers. He also told
a gentleman who called upon him in her
behalf, that he was very favorable TO her
appointment. Several days since he wrote
to his most intimate friends in Chicago.
asking advice about the matter, and re-
ceived in reply a very hearty Endorsement
Of Mrs. Mulligan, a strongly expressed
hope that he would give her the office, and
he probably would have done SO had Schurz
not taken so decided a position in favor Of
Miss Sweets reappointment. Schurz is OPP
posed to women holding Office from princi
pie, and he insisted that if Miss Sweet was
not reappointed, that the Office should be
given to a man. The president remembered
the affair of the St. Louis postoffice, when
he appointed Filley over Schurz's protest,
which nearly resulted in a cabinet breakup,
and yielded. At Mrs. Mulligan's last inter.
view with the president he expressed a
strong desire to comply with her applica-
ton, and asked if there was not some other
office che would accept. Mrs. M%ulligan re-
piled in the negative. Then be said Jest
ingly that Miss Sweet should get married,
and if she would he would give her a dia.
mond ring, and Mrs. Mulligan the Office.

Schurz was determined to have one office
in the country run on strict civil service re-
form principles. Therefore he singled out
Miss Ada Sweet, pension agent at Chicago,
as the grand example to the nation. She
was a faithful officer, schurz said, and he
long ago promised her the reappointment.
Though the president desired to appoint
Mrs. Col. Mulligan and she was Endorsed by
all Of Illinois, the secretary prevailed and
Miss Sweet is a living illustration of the
fact that one promise has been made and
kept at Washington.

crease of numbers and u further supply OF
arms and provisions to renew hostilities.
Sitting Bull invariably accompanies his
protestations that he will be peaceable and
submissive while on Canadian territory by
fierce invections against the United States,
and an avowal Of his future purpose to wage
war against Americans. When he consol-
idated his forces-now constantly recruited
by refugee bands from the different agencies
the mounted police, of 800 men, necessar-
lily divided into small detachments, will, in
the judgment of the consul, be powerless to
restrain him.

PROOF THAT ADVERTISING PAYS.

PROOF THAT ADVERTISING PAYS.
The American public is familiar with the Ad-
%vertising Agency Of Geo. p. Rowell & Co. II
any firm doing business on the continent can af-
ford to "move on" with a splendid reputation
through these hard times. this would seem to be
the one. 1t is advertised by an appreciative
newspaper fraternity very largely without
charge yet, in view of all these facts. the list
sent lis for use next month, for which they pay
a fair price, in money, by the inch, is devoted
largely to their own business. The order takes
us somewhat by surprise, and it would rcassure
us If we were disposed to doubt the wisdom of
pushing business through the hardest times. We
add for the benefit Of the Thomases who may
read that Messrs. Geo. p. Rowell & Co. come
nearer knowing all about the advertising bust
ness than any other firm, having handled millions
and millions of dollars thus appropriated. An
other feature worth noting is the liberaiity with
"Cncle Sam" They have doubtless expended
more money for postage during the last quarter
of a century than any other firm in the United
States Chattanooga Times.

Fremont lNeb J IIeraId.

A shrewd granger came to Fremont
the other day with n span of horses,
which, in appearance, were paragons
Of animal beauty. One Of onr horse
traders caught sight Of them and offered
to buy them at once. The granger was
willing to sell, consequently the bar
gin was soon closed, the money paid
over and the horses delivered to the
new owner. The granger then looked
Mt the horseman with wicked twinkle
in his eye and remarked: Mister,
there's some instructions goes with
them horses.
"What are they?" replied the horse
man.
We'll, sir, when that are critter lies
down on hls right side, you has to turn
him over before he can git up. He's n

side. The tother animal was born back.

way. When you hitch him to wagon

After delivering these instructions
the granger walked of, chuckling like a
loose cog wheel, and the horsemnn was
sorry that Beecher had abolished hell
before this grangcr's time to die had
come. But the horseman was resolved
not to be beat in this way, and began to
look about for II victim. He soon found
one in the person Of prominent law
yer, to whom lie sold the team al q
fancy price. After getting his money
he delivered the instructions as he
had received them, and now there's 4
lawyer on the ragged edge who j cast
ing his eyes wistfully around for some
other man wishing to buy beautiful
team. He'll sell cheap and throw the
instructions in.
