We concur in the opinion that in the Sec
ton of the Statute defining the tenure of Of
flee of the reporter of the decisions of the
Law Court, X. s., c. ~. 2S, the words
''the executive are employed to embrace.
in one general term, both the Governor and
Council, who had been mentioned together
in the earlier lines of the section, and to in
dicate the executive authority by which the
appointment is made: that the phrase "who
shall hold his Office during the pleasure of
the executive" contemplates the same mode
of executiv action and procedure in effect
ing a removal, as in making an appointment,
and that neither from the letter, reason nor
history of the Statute, nor from a comparison
OF it, with those in pdyi materia. can just
inference be drawn of an intention to divide
the removing from the appointing power.
We think the section substantially re-
enacts, in this particular instance, the gen.
eral constitutional provision that "the tenure
OF all offices which are not or shall not be
otherwise provided for, shall be during the
pleasure of the Governor and Council" and
that it was never intended that the former,
who has only the power to nominate for ap-
pointment, shall be able alone to create va
cancy which he has not the power to fll
without the action of the latter.

Investigation of the treasury custodian's
ring continues to develop ugly facts. Hatch,
storekeeper of the treasury, states that while
he was away on leave last summer, four hun
dred yards of fine carpet were taken out of his
rooms. He discovered this on his return and
reported the fact to Power, chief clerk. Pow
er called on Pitney for an inventory of the
carpets on hand and in 1t Pitney included the
four hundred missing yards Power submit
ted the inventory to Hatch, who said it was
wrong. Then Power told Hatch to make out
a correct inventory. Meantime Pitney heard
OF what was gong on and had carpet firm,
whom he had favored, send in 400 yards of
carpet as a loan. The borrowed carpet, how
ever, was of inferior quality, and the 400 yards
taken out was never received. The ring was
in the habit of selling good carpets and furnl-
ture under the head of condemned" The

buildings throughout the country with need

The Best Remedy for Chapped Hands.
Is Hegeman's Camphor Ice. It should be
rubbed upon the part affected. The warmth
OF the skin will soften it sufficiently, under or
dinary circumstances, but in extreme cold
weather it may be necessary to warm it by the
fire. If the hands are badly chapped, apply
every night, and protect the hands by wearing
best and most popular of all the Camphor
Ices made. Hegeman's Csmphor Ice is also q
cure for sore lips, chapped face, and sunburn.
1t is compounded with glycerine, which rem
ders it more emollient than any other Camphor
Ice, and it will be found a most soothing ap-
plication to the face after shaving.
BE sure to ask for Hegeman's formerly
made by Hegeman s Co., New York, and now
made by the Metropolitan Med. Co., of New
Haven, Conn. }, and do not be pu. OFF with any
other compound which may become rancid and
do you more harm than good. Hegeman's
Camphor Ice never fails.

The valuable mare, Hambrino Belle, lately
purchased by Mr.. n W. Kittson of General
Wilson, Cynthiana, Kentucky, for $4,000,
died at 2 O'Clock this morning, at the st. Paul
Driving park, of pneumonia. It was known
that the mare contracted a slight cold while
Ia transit to her new home, but on her ar
rival her appearance was such as not to cause
any apprehension. About ten days since it
became plain that congestion was slowly
but surely doing its work, and her condition
soon became serious, and for the past three or
four days fatal consequences have been ex-
pected. She remained standing during her
entire sickness, evincing to the end degree Of
patience seldom witnessed during great suffer
Ing. When the end came she put her nose
against her side at the locality of her con-
gested lungs, pressing there for few mo.
ments and fell over dead.
Hambrino Belle was foaled in 1874, sired
by Hambrino, dam Salle Neale, by Mambrno
Chief. She was gamey and resolute trotter,
having during very brief turf career placed
eight heats better than 2:3O to. her score, and q

On the Ground.

ALBANY, May 24.-The feature of the days
event in connection with the Senatorial ques-
tion was the arrival on the scene of the Sena-
tors themselves, accompanied by Vice Pres-
dent Arthur. 1t was expected that the party
would not leave New York until this evening,
but early in the morning E. A. Carpenter,
chairman of the committee on affairs of cities,
received dispatch from Commissioner French
notifying him that they would leave on the
train due at Albany at 2:40 in the afternoon.
1t was then announced Senator Conkling
would be made the recipient of serenade,
to which he would respond in one of his most
powerful speeches. Whether this report had
tendency to excite desire to see the leader and
hear him, or not, it is certain but little inter-
est was taken in the legislature Immediately
after it was generally known Conkling was
on the way to the city. Even the New York
street cleaning bill was pat through IN very
short time, and the Senate adjourned half an
hour before the time fixed. In addition to
this, both houses held afternoon sessions, but
each adjourned over until tomorrow forenoon.
THE RECEPTION.
Promptly at 2:40, the train containing the
ex-Senators and friends, ran into the depot
There had already gathered quite number of
persons, among them several members of both
Houses. When the train stopped Congress
man Crowley, stepped out on the platform fol-
lowed by Conkling and Platt. Conkling recog-
niZed several persons IN the crowd and shook
hands with them, when cheers were called for
and they were given, being repeated twice.
The reception Was cordial one though not
as enthusiastic as Conkling had received on
former visits. Neither were there so many
people present. With the party were Police
Commissioner French, of New York, and ex-
Assemblyman A. Hamilton Fish, Jr. They
proceeded to the Delavan house. Shortly

The morning opened with the situation un-
changed, both parties claiming they had their
forces intact and both claim their ability to
defeat the other. There having been some
talk about the Democrats of the legislature
siding with one or the other, all such reports
were again denounced to-day, and so emphati-
cally that they ought to set at rest any such
report.
