sTROBACHs D1ARsHALsHIP.

The Senate Judiciary Committee Re
ports Against the OficehOlding Leech.
WASHINGTON, May 1O.-Senator Logan
submitted to the Senate the report of the
Judiciary Committee on Senator Nor
gan's resolution of inquiry regarding the
status of Paul StOrbach, Marshal of the
Middle and Southern districts of Ala
bama. IL recites the circumstances of the
suspension of Mr.. Osborne, the former
Marshal, the appointment of Paul Str0-
bach, his rejection by the Senate, Mr.. Os-
borne's application then made to the Cir
cult Court for reinstatement, the denial
of such application, the subsequent eXpi-
ration on April 16, 1884, of the four years
term for which Mr.. Osborne had been
nominated, and the continuance of Mr..
Strobach to perform the duties of
the office. The committee report
that in their opinion the true con-
struction of the act under which
Mr.. StrObach was appointed must be that
the appointment was to hold good only so
long as the legal term of the suspended
officer continued, that when that term
expired the suspension no longer existed,
and that inasmuch as the designation of
another person to perform the duties of
the suspended officer depends upon the
the legal termination of the suspension,
legally terminates the official functions
Of the person designated. The report then
says: ut follows from the foregoing
consideration in the opinion Of the COM
mittee that Mr.. STObach was not
after the 10th day of April, 1884. being the
day of the termination OF the official term
of Mr.. Osborne as Marshal, legally entitled
to execute the powers and duties of such
office in place of Mr.. Osborne, or under
such designation" The report then cites
section 1913 of the Revised Statutes, which
gives Circuit Judge authority to fill va
cancies in MarshaPs office, which pro-
vides that The persorf so appointed "shall
serve until an appointment is
made by the President, and
the appointee Is duly qualified, and no
longer" The report closes as follows: "In
conclusion the committee is of the opinion
that after the expiration of the term of
Mr.. Osborne, and during the session of
the Senate, no person can lawfully eXer-
else the duties of that office until he shall
have been appointed thereto either by the
President, by and with the advice and
consent of the Senate, or by the Circuit
Justice Of that circuit, in conformity with
section 1913 of the Revised Statutes"

CHAPTER ".

Christmas Eve came, and Master Linstice
sat in the little back parlor where June
used TO be. All her little things were
there, Just as she had left them, even the
faded geraniums and roses in the brown
pots she had arranged the last day she had
been in her room.
The room was full of memories to the
old man as he sat over the fire, looking in
to it wistfully, as if he would see in the red
flames and burning Goals pictures OF the
past Then he would look round the room,
his eyes following each little picture
and ornament, everything that spoke of
his lost one, and his eyes. dim as they
seemed sometimes, lighted up with fire
of resentment nothing could quench,
Only He who reads the hearts OF all,
and knows every thought and feeling,
knew how hard was the struggle with
the old man to put away all thoughts OF
bitterness of Eric Durefoy He could not
forgive him, and he felt he never could.
AS he sat there he heard the sound OF
wheels, and he dreamily wondered who it
was Then the door opened, and in the
tall man who came forward Master Linsticc
recognized Eric Durefoy.
The old man rose and confronted his

Tom Taggart stood behind the bar.
The time was fall the skies were T ar,
The neighbors round the counter drawed
And ca'mly drinked and jawed.
At last came Colonel Blood of Pike
And old Jedge Phinn, permiscus like,
And each as he meandered in,
Remarked, "A whisky-Skin."
Tom mixed the beverage fun and far,
And slammed ii smoking on the bar,
Some says three fingers. some says two

Which caused him great surprise.
Then coats went off, and all went in;
Shots and bad language swelled the din;
The short. sharp bark of derringers,
Like bull-pups cheered the furse.
They piled the stiffs outside the door;
They made, | reckon, cord or more
Girls went that winter, as a rule,

" PEACE -
That was all.

Then at her grave old Master Iinstice
spoke. He said no angry words, but he
told Eric of her last days, and when he
ceased, Eric paused. He longed to ask the
old man to forgive MIN, and again break
ing down his pride he asked.
As Eric did so, Master Linstice lifted his
eyes to the moonlit sky.
The cool air played on his forehead, but
it did not seem to cool the burning passion
Of anger. He was not man Of many
words, but he could be very stern.
Shaking his head he Enelt down by the
white stone and said he could not forgive,
and Eric walked away. The old man kHelt
there unheeding the cold, and presently
the chimes began-the Angel Chimes,
which seemed to say, Peace on earth
good viii to men,.
Often as Master Iinstice had heard them,
they had never before sounded so sweet,
and yet they did not seem to touch him
The old Christmas message of Peace he
could not receive, for he had that in his
heart which barred the way to its entrance.
So long as he kept those feelings of resent
ment and could not forgive so long must he
remain untouched by the message from the
King Of Peace Himself, whose forgiveness
he might not claim so long as he refused
to pardon others.
Rising, he went after Eric, and found
him; and ere the chimes had ceased and
the great festival was many minutes old,
they were reconciled. How much it cost
him none knew.

The days went on, and Eric Durefoy de-
voted himself to Junes father. They lived
together; and though the old man had lost
his daughter, he was not quite lonely for

Woman,s Power.

If women only knew how sweet and
lovely they are, and how much they can
do with men, they would pay more
attention to their personal cultivation
than they do. Why, if woman only
goes about ii right she can do anything
with man, and make him conform to
her ideas in every particular. She has
tact, skill, talent, beauty, refinement,
and combine her intuition with her
fascinating powers, she can change his
politics, reform his religious ideas, alter
the.whole course of his life, and shape
his career to suit herself. But she must
not forget for an instant the art and
finesse by which she rules. Man is at
best a brusque, selfish, impulsive crea-
ture, full OF conceit and yagaries, and
anxious to rule and control. He has
strength and he wants to use 1t; he has
creative faculties, and tries TO execute.
But whatever he is he looks to woman
for his pleasures, and the one who can
please him can rule him and do with him
what she will. 4 woman is young until
she is twenty-five, and q man retains his
youth ten years longer, but after that
there is nothing to live for but home.
Life has lost its zest, and their are no
charms in toys land amusements OF
Yesterday. You must admit that a
