To thy dear memory, darling, and my own,

All that it tells of life in death is thine;

In anguish deep has brought me great unrest;

tilted. Acting Commissioner Rogers was
asked to-day what there was in the talk
about consolidation. He said: 'Really
very little. The secretary of the treasury
requested me to draw up some suggestions
relative to reducing the districts. The OBJ
iect was simply to inform the president
and secretary of the present condition of
the districts. I suggested consultations
where 1 thought districts could be CONSOLE
dated without detriment to the public SER
vice. In all think suggested that about
thirty districts be consolidated. This is
