The Postmaster Generals Decision
Limited in Application.


Washington Correspondence ". Y. Herald.
No further action will be taken in re-
gard to the Louisiana lottery question I'M
til Postmaster General Gresham returns
to Washington. 1t is thought at the de-
partment that the Postmaster General
will reply to the query of Colonel MOul-
ton-namely, whether the decision contin-
uing in force the original order issued by
Postmaster General Key will prevent the
delivery Of registered packages and
money orders to agents of the company in
cities other than New York and New Or
leans, by issuing a general order to Post
masters throughout the country forbid
ding them to deliver registered letters or
money orders to the accredited agents of
NJ. A. Dauphin.
A telegram was received at the Post
Office Department to-day from the Post
master at Memphis, Tenn, reporting that
numbers of money orders and registered
mail packages were being received there
for the Louisiana Lottery Company, and
asking il the recent decision of Postmas.
ter General Gresham was intended to ap-
ply to all agents of the company. Chief
Clerk Walker in reply telegraphed that
this decision applied only to agents in
New Orleans and New York.

American Girls Marrying Titles

London Correspondence DetrOU Post,
If ] felt free to mention names l could
tell tales to wiring the heart about Amer
lean girls who have married English no.
blemen. In almost every instance it
proves fatal to the brides happiness 1t
isn't long since Lord Flytinger married the
heiress of an American CrGsus. There
was tremendous time about it, She was
enVied by all her manageable crOnies,
and old CrWSuS was congratulated on
the fine alliance. He grinned with self
cOmplacency and handed over 81 500, 900
to His LOrdship Flyfinger on the spot.
Flyfnger took the wife and the money
and brought them to England, where he
introduced her to few acquaintance
and then left her to shift for herself, while
he travels with relays of fast horses and
mistresses, races and hunts, gamhles and
lives wild life on the million and half
Of money for which he sold the shelter of
his title TO bright, hopeful, ambitious
American girl,
Five or six years ago an Amer lean girl,
whose name was on all lips, married a
rich Englishman who had the entree
of high society in England, She was
Toasted, toasted. envied. But she has
si,9aUt in social cocoon ever since, hearth
ly wishing herself home, not seeing for
months sometimes the husband who loves
to follow the hounds.
One other case! There is young lady
now in high society in America, her ma
tive land, whose husband is an English
Lord and whose father-in-law is a Duke.
She is beautiful, accomplished, interest
inc, and she might have made a good
match IL New York. But she wanted a
lord, and she got him. He inherited
Gambling from his mother, the duchess,
and he CANDLES away all he can get, He
is dissOlute and INSCRIPTIONS; she is
neglected and wreUched. So she pays
80 ,o,;., visits to her relatives in Ameri-
ca, where she can pluugo -hto society ana
forget her pitiful European experiment

ST.. LOUIS, March 6.-Dlspatches
from Helena, Arkansas, say: The
breaking Of the Fitz. Hugh levee five
miles below there will probably not
effect Helena, but should the back va.
ter threaten the place, the culvert In
the Midlsnd railroad embankmsnt will
be closed, which will Insure safety.
About n hundred thousand acres of
land, will probably be overfowed by the
breaking of the Fitz Hugh wlsvse; and
when 1t 10 considered that this section
was flooded last year, end that no
crops of consequence were made on II
after the water subsided, aud that the
owners were generally in debt prior to
that time, eome Idea may be formed of
the condition of the people there and
what straits they will bs In.
