The claim that he [Blaine] is a ciyil-service
reformer, or in any way stands for ciyil-service
reform, although advanced occasionally by
his champions, is Of course simply amusing to
those who know what his private opinions
about the whole movement have been from
the beginning, and it is still more amusing to
those who know the readiness with which he
has always used the patronage of the govern
ment to advance his political fortunes New
York Post.
It is probably as amusing as that Thomas
A. Hendricks should be the civil-service re-
form candidate. Mr. Hendricks's views are
very explicit: mot less than so, 900 federal
officers will have to be turned out at once!1

MARTIN KIM, Of Beleyille, H., will hardly

Martin has had tough time of itfor a few days.
and all on account of woman He was mar
ried, on Saturday evening last, to woman who
represented that she had $4,000 in cash. Now,
while women in the rough are plentiful enough,
women with two thousand good dollars in hand
are not-mores the pity. So Martin may
be excused for feeling that he had
struck it rich. He went to sleep
that night, calculating what $1,000 would
buy, and, altogether he was in very happy
frame of mind. But when he awoke next morn
ing and found his bride missing, and all her duds
gone likewise and $50 of his own hard earnings.
he was, to draw it mild, disenchanted And
when he further discovered that she had gone to
st. Louis, to return no more, Martin acted like
Democrat who had heard from Knox county,
and went and tried to hang himself. He was
rescued in time. Martin will yet live to appreci-
ate his good luck.

A BELbAIRE, o., pastor is charged with hav-
ing appropriated to his own use the receipts Of
Sunday fairs and festivals which were held for
other benevolent purposes than that Of paying
the preachers salary. He does not deny the soft
impeachment; but says that as his years salary
of 5000 had only been paid in part, he thought
himself as good as heather and entitled to the
proceeds of the festivals. he demonstrates,
however, that he played fair by dividing even
ly between himself and the heather. There is
no doubt that the pastors half went where it
would do the most good
