perplexity as to how early copies of the vol
umes as they severally appeared could reach
Philadelphia in advance of the authorized edi-
tion as issued in Boston by Messrs. Little,
Brown & Co. The only way they could account
for it was that the proof sheets must have been
stolen from their printing office and immedi-
ately forwarded to Philadelphia A strict
watch over them was accordingly kept. In
short time the mystery was explained. A
young man, printer from Philadelphia, who
had lately entered their employ, was appre-
hended, and complete set of the proofs of
the coming volume wet from the press found
on his person. He was let off with light
sentence of twenty days imprisonment, as he
pleaded in his defence that he took the sheets
simply for the purpose of reading them, as it
was the custom of the workmen to do.

farmer aged 30. residing in Troy, Geanza coun-

OF their married life lived in constant quarrel
ling until two weeks ago when Annie took ref

street. To-day Walters entered Miler's rooms
on the first floor of a tenement house and as
saulted Mr.. Miller with cobble stone tied up
in handkerchief. Later in the evening he re-
turned, and after threatening to kill Mrs Mill
er, ended by assaulting his wife Anrie who was
just then leaving the house. He drew razor
across her throat, inficting very severe wound
He was soon after arrested, but before he could
be secured cut his own throat with the razor.
The wife and husband were sent to the hospi-
tai, the former in dying condition and the
man unconscious. Cause of the desperate deed
appears to be jealousy on the part of the hus.

Civil Service Reform in the Custom
House.
NEW YORK, April 19.-The Times says in
regard to some recent shufing of positions in
the New York appraisers office, that they are
emnently instructive. 1t says:
'It is curious kind of civil service reform
which removes an efficient and faithful officer
to make way for an untried man, degrading
employees of long standing and special train
ing to lower positions, in order to advance
favored subordinates who had not shadow of
claim to promotion"
The Senate committee on commerce will do
good public service byprobng the extraordinary
rules of promotion which Secretary Sherman,
with the Presidents approvalI has recently
attempted to enforce in the New York
appraisers office. They can do some good by
holding the President to a strict observance of
the rules of action which he has been more
successful in formulating than in carrying into
practiCe

The annuity recently distributed to the Crows

checked and diagonal clothing, coats, pants
and vests, and plug hats, for savages who

Indians complain that they can get flour only

sugar or coffee, and they have sold their broad
cloth overcoats and thousands of butcher
