A DISPATCH from Washington to
a Chicago paper, states that Garfield
told Editor Bickham, of Dayton, Ohio,
that long service in office would not be
q bar to the continuance of the incum-
bents Of public office. provided they
discharged the duty faithfully. Over
thirty of the callers on Blaine requested
him to say a good word to the president
for them. Gen. Jerry Rusk, of Wis
~coRsin, has been promised a good office
by Garfield, and he telegraphed n re-
quest that no place be selected until he
can a come here and pick out one to
suit. Stewart L. Woodford seeks a re-
appointment as district attorney of
New York. Thurman was surprised
and gratifed by his appointment on the
monetary conference. Vice President
Arthur has not yet called at the White
House. Pinchback is here and would
not refuse the New Orleans custom
house. Col. Geo. W. Hooker, of Yer.
mont, wants Judge Tyner's place in the
postofice department. Pearson will be
postmaster at New York city. Editor
Cowles, Of Cleveland, Ohio, wants the
Swiss mission.

THE New York Worlds London cor
respondent telegraphs, March 18th, as
follows: Mr.. Forster's drag net is still
at work, and it is expected that the
prisoners will be in Killmainham jail
by Saturday night. None Of the prom
inent men have been seized, and the
course of the government in letting
them escape and bagging only local
branch members, is severely criticised.
II, as Forster and his colleagues claim,
the peace Of the country depends upon
the suppression of the league agitation,
why do they not imprison the leaders
Of the movement first and then look
after their followers. This question Is
being asked by everybody on this side
of the Irish Channel, but no satisfac-
tory answer has been put forward
either by parliament or in the liberal
press. The Killmainham men are pro-
vided with comfortable quarters and
are allowed to spend the day together
without surveillance. They are per-
fectly satisfied with their treatment,
although the enthusiastic Of the Scrab
Nally type, whose brother, Patrick,
was arrested to-day, would probably
prefer bread and water, the ball and
chain, and all other properties Of the
Irish martyrs.

poor little sister as If she had fallen
from grace, and all the church people
looked at her sadly, while the worldly
minded people sniekered. The little
woman saw that she had got her foot
into something, and blushed and
backed out and asked the travelling man
what keno meant. He said he didn't
know exactly but he had always seen
people when they had won anything az
the game yell keno. She is not yet
exactly clear as to what keno is, but
she says she has sworn of taking ad-
vice from pious looking travelling men.
They call her little keno now.-Terre

A Pretty Indiana .Deaconess Puts
Herself in nm Awkward Position.

Herself in nm Awkward Position.
While most of u travelling men,
our commercial tourists, are nice Chris
tian gentlemen, there is occasionally
one who is as full Of the old nick as an
egg, at this time of the year, is full of
malaria. There was one Of them
stopped at a country town a few nights
ago where there was a church fair. He
is a blonde, good natured looking seri-
Gus talking chap. and having stopped
at that town every month for a dozen
years., everybody knows him. He al
ways chips in toward n collection, n
wake or a rooster fight, and the town
swears by him. He attended the fair,
and a jolly little sister OF the church, a
married lady, took him by the hand
and led him through green fields, where
the girls sold him ten cen chances in
sawdust dolls, and beside still waters
where a girl sold him sweetened water
with a sour stomach for lemonade, from
Rebecca's well. The sister finally stood
beside him while the deacon was read
ing off numbers. They were drawing
a quilt, and as the numbers were drawn
all were anxious to know who drew it.
Finally after several numbers were
drawn, it was announced that No. IL
drew the quilt, and the little sister
turned 10 the travelling man and said to
| hi m:
MY, that is my number. 1 have
drawn it. What shall / do?"
Hold up your ticket and shout ke-
no." said he.
The little deaconess did not stop to
think that there might be guile lurking
in that travelling man, but full of joy
at drawing the Quilt and ice-cream
because the travelling man had bought
it, she rushed into the crowd towards
the deacons. holding the number and
shouting SO they could hear it all over
the house, "Kenol" If a bank had
burst in the building there couldn't
have been so much establishment. The
deacon turned pale and looked at the

IT Is openly charged in Madison,
Wis, by the anti-C ameronites, that
frauds were erpetrated and the election
and the result of the election was both
a conspiracy and wholesale bribery. 1t
has been discovered that a member of
the assembly had raised a l ,500 mort
gage on his homestead without any
visible means of the Ngetting of the
money. Others were equally flush.
The excitement over the matter is in

that If the matter is properly probed,
the most startling scandal and sensation
will be unearthed.

CONSPICUOUS among those who have
failed to call yet upon Garfield, are
Vice President Arthur and Senator
Conkling. The only exchange Of our
tesies between the president and Conk-
ling, since the Inauguration, occurred
on Thursday, when. through a friend,
the president caused inquiry TO be made
as to what Conkling desired of the
administration. Conkling replied that
the president could learn at first hand
at any time, by sending for him, but at
no time through an intermediate
source.

now WE GER THE NEWS.

In the f~hladelphla star course, un-
der the management of T. b. Pugh
before a large audience at the Academy
OF Music Thursday evening, a lecture
was delivered on the subject of the
Associated Press" or, how we get
the news, by James w. Simonton, the
general agent of the New York asso-
ciated press. The subject is one often
inquired about, and about which the
public know very little. On the stage,
near the lecturers left hand, were placed
t%elegraphic instruments, connected with
the wires Of the Western Union tele-
graph, and through them the audience
was placed in communication almost
with the ends of the earth, dispatches
being read from all parts of the United
States, including California, Canada,
and from Great Britain aud the conti-
nent of Europe.
Having been introduced by w. v.
Mclean, of the Leader, as the great
est wire-puller Of the age" Simonton
struck at once into the discussion Of
his chosen theme, having traced the
growth Of the associated press from the
year 1887, when the procurement Of
marine news In New York harbor led a
number Of journals in that city to com.
bine down to the present day. Simon
ton explained that the organization is
practically a central news exchange,
with branch associations for local pur-
poses in various cities, all governed by
the same object of getting the most
and freshest news. Simonton then
called for dispatches from distant
points, and an answer was received
from New Orleans in a few minutes,
giving the ews of the rescue of the
crew of a vessel lost on Wednesday in
the Gulf of Mexico, and other current
items Of news. London was then called
and asked what parliament was doing,
and an answer came back in three min
utes, that parliament has just finished
the arms bill in committee, and is now
taking up the army estimates" A dis
patch was received from Montreal a few
minutes after it was asked, stating that
snow had been falling there all day.
A message was then sent to San Fran
cisco asking that a message DO sent
quickly, and in four minutes it was
received, giving a report of Thursdays
proceedings in the Kalloch trial. A
dispatch from Washington stating that
the weather was clear, cool and plea
SAINT, was read.
Simonton spoke of the impossibility
of the associated press answering the
various complaints against it. There
could be no ~partisanship in its news, he
said, AS its membership embraced men
of all shades Of views, and editors who
receive news are free to alter, revise o.
leave out, just as they see fit. HI
ridiculed the idea that Jay Gould o
any other individual or set of indi
viduals could, even if they so desired
control the associated press.
In conclusion, Simonton spoke Of tn
blessing the association had prove
itself a mighty force in civilization
He referred to the prodigious labor
connected with the handling of tn
news, and gracefully closed his lectur
by introducing picture of a wear
news editor receiving from the assc
ciated press agents about 3 O'Clock
morning the CHEEKY words "goo
night" the signal that no more dis
patches may be expected for the day.

The new route to San Francisco by
way Of the -Atchison, Topeka & Santa
Fe and Southern Pacific railroads will
open for business on March 18th. On
the evening Of that day the first pas
senger express train over the new route
will start from Kansas City for Deming,
New Mexico, where a connection with
the Southern Pacific has been COM
pleted. A similar train will leave
Kansas City and Atchison every even
ing. These trains will include Pullman
sleeping and drawing-room cars, which
The Cheyenne daily leader. [volume] (Cheyenne, Wyo.) 1870-1884, 1881-03-12

will be run as far ss Deming. From
that point the Southern Pacific viii run
its own sleepers and parior ears. The
time between New York aud San Fran
cisco by the new route will be the same
a that BY way Of the Union and Cen
trial Pacific roads. The distance by the
former is about three hundred miles
greater than by the latter route, but
it will be discounted by the alb
sence of heavy grades and freedom
from snow bloekades. Owing to an ar
rangement between the several Pacific
roads the through fare will be the same
by either route. Tickets by way of the
new route will be placed on sale at the
principal railroad Offices on Saturday.

NEURALGIA.

II has been ascertained that the most in
veterate cases OF neuralgia are cured by
Fellows Syrup OF Hypophosphites. Not only
Is the principal disease eradicated, but the
patient is made vigorous and strong; the
stomach, the blood. the skin become healthy
and he obtains n new lease OF enjoyable life.
The only satisfactory treatment of
gia is by strengthening the nervous system.
A person with strong nerves never suffers
from this disease.
The virtues of Fellows Compound Syrup
OF Hypophosphites are such that other reme-
dies are seldom required.
The demand for Hypophosphite and other
Phosphorus preparations at the present day,
Is largely owing to the good effects and
success following the Introduction OF this
nrficle In the United States.
