Investigation OF United States Marshals
and Attorneys.


As the result of the investigation of the ex-
penses of the United States marshals, deputy
marshals, district attorneys, commissioners
and clerks, the committee on expenditures in
the department of justice intends making an
effort to change the present system of com
penssting officials. 1t is proposed to give
salaries to the marshal and two of the depu-
ties in each district, one of the latter to be
the clerk and the other office deputy. The
marshal's salary is to be about $4,000 and the
two deputies $1,000 each. For district at
torneys they propose to grade the salaries,
paying them from $4,000 to $4,000, according
to the business of the office. At present they
reseive 5000 and are all owed fees, by which
they receive S6000 The salaries of the as
sistant attorneys are to be the same as the
law now allows-S300O. or less, according
to official business. The clerks, it is pro-
posed, shall receive salaries averaging about
$500, The nearest commissioners. mem
bers of the committee are of the opinion that
by the changes proposed the appropriation
of half million will be saved annually for
the first years, and a greater part of the fees.

BY JAMES wHITCoMB RILEY.

The kind of man for you and me
He faces the world unfinchingly
And smites, as long as the wrong resists,
With knuckled faith and force-like fists;
He lives the life he is preaching of,
And loves where most is the need of love;
His voice is clear to the deaf mans ears,
And his face sublime through the blind mans
tears;
The light shines cut where the clouds were dim
And the widows prayer goes up for him;
The latch is clicked at the hovel door,
And the sick man sees the sun once more,
And out DER the barren field he sees
Springing blossoms and waving trees,
Feeling, as only the dying may,
That Gods own servant has come that way,
Smoothing the path as it still winds on
Through the golden gate where his loved have
gone.
The kind of man for me and you,
However little of worth we do,
He credits full, and abides in trust
That time will teach us how more is just
He walks abroad and he meets all kinds
Of queruous and uneasy minds,
And, sympathizing, he shares the pain
Of the doubts that rack us, heart and brain,
and, Knowing this, as we grasp his hand,
We are surely coming to understand
lie looks on sin with pitying eyes
Fen as the Lord, since Paradise
Else, should we read, though our sins should glow
Asscarlet they should be white as snow!
And feeling still, with half glad
That the bad are as good as the good are bad,
He strikes straight out for the Right-and he
Is the kind of a man for you and me!

Henry Clay's Heroic Son.
M the Cincinnati Neps.Journal.

From the Cincinnati Nelos-JoTnGt.
"Do you know what killed Henry
Clay2" my genial Kentucky story-tel
Ter asked me the other day. eff not l
will tell you. He died of a broken
heart, not because he lost the presidency,
but his son. Henry Clay, Jr., was
his fathers idol He was sent to West
Point, where he graduated second in
his class. After four months in the
army he resigned, and began practicing
law in Lexington, living with his father
at Ashland. Not young man in Ken
lucky promised better things than he
did. When the Mexican war broke
out he was determined to go. His
father made no objection, and he went
as leiutenant-colonel of the first Ken
lucky regiment. Atthe battle of Buena
Vista, Santa Anna, with $4,000 troops,
nearly overwhelmed Gen. Taylor, with
about one-eighth that number. Clay
fought hard, but his regiment was fall
ing back, a shot went through both
legs. He was not mortally wounded,
and three men picked him up to con-
vey him off the field 1t soon became
evident that the Mexicans would over
take them. "Save yourself boys" he
said, and taking the pistol his father
had given him, he handed it to one of
the men with the words, "Take this,
and return it to my father. Tell him
1 have no further use for tt With
that they dropped him and ran after
the retreating troops. The last they
saw of Clay he was lying on his back,
fighting a squad of Mexicans with his
sword. Next morning his body was
found, hacked to pieces and mutilated
by the towards who killed him. The
pistol came to his father, then a Sena-
tor, and, though he lived several years
after, am convinced that he died from
the blow.

Mems Pockets.

Mary S. Booth, in the following from
Ha,per'S Basar, commends pockets
and the sex that despised, appreciates
and continues to multiply them:
If we were asked to-day the great ad
vantage which man has over woman in
the struggle for existence we should an
swer without hesitation, pockets. Pock
cts are the symbol of an orderly mind,
oflogical powers, cticalacquirements,
homogenity. A bag, woman's bag,
shopping bag is the emblem of the
kingdom of misrule. Speaking round
ly, mans clothes contain a dozen
pockets In this convenient place his
change is kept ever ready, and never in
the way; in that receptacle are his
knife, cork screw and shoe -buttoner;
another compartment is sacred to his
purse; still another holds his handker-
chief; his glove may have seperate
home if he will; his eyeglass live in an
aristocratic seclusion, watch, pencil case
and tooth-picks are comfortably segre
grated, and he has room beside for
memorandum book, letters, newspapers,
and new magazines, visiting cards,
and a case of court plaster. Is it any
wonder that he turns the key of the
worlds great lock easily and well,
having both hands free to that exerciseP
And the fact that he has conquered his
pockets, so to speak, testifies to the
supremacy of man. Ifhis tailor demur-
red at putting them in, that useful
minion would find his occupation gone
But when woman is told by her dress
maker that only one inaccessible pock-
ct is to be allowed her, she supinely
submits, and thereby proclaimes her
inferiority of sex.

Binders.

One of the most unacCountable OF
follies is that of compelling horses to
wear blinders. They are the cause OF
more run-aways and accidents than all
the railroads in the country. Men and
horses are always more frightened at
noises they cannot account for than
anything else. Allow horse to see
everything about him and he soon loses
his timidity. Binders are liable to
impair the eye-sight, by keeping the
air from the eye and by shortening the
the vision. Horses are constantly being
struck by objects that they would avoid
if the opportunity were given them
to do so. Hardly day passes in the
crowded streets of the city that we do
not see horses wounded by some passing
vehicle that they were unable to see un-
til it approached too near to be avoided.
A correspondent in one of our agricul-
tural exchanges speaking on this SUBJ
ject, says: 81 drove horse for two
years who was never safe, and at times
was almost unmanageable from fear.
took off the binders and used an open
bride for two years more, during
which time a child could drive him
safely; indeed, a lad of ten years now
owns him and uses him exclusively.
Were he to put binders on him he
would be unmanageable." )"
s@-"Yes," said Miss Penn, 81 re-
jected Mr.. Hogg. Nice fellow, but
couldn't have the announcement of my
marriage appear in the papers, begin
ming with "Hogg-Penn."
B@-An obstinate man does not hole
opinions-they hold him.

Eating without an Appetite.

Hall says: at is wrong to eat with
out an appetite, for itshows there is no
gastric juice in the stomach, and that
nature does not need food; and not
needing it, there being no juice to re-
ceive and act upon it, it remains there
to purify, the very thought of which
should be sufficient to deter any man
from eating without an appitite for the
remainder of his life. Ifa tonic is taken
to whet the appetite, it is mistaken
course, for its only result is to cause
one to eat more, when already an
amount has been eaten beyond what
the gastric juice is able to prepare.
The object to be attained is larger
supply of gastric juice, not larger
supply of food and whatever fails to
accomplish that desirable object fails to
have any efficiency toward the cure of
dyspeptic diseases. The formation of
gastric juices is directly proportioned
to the wear and tear of the system,
which it is to be the means of supply
ing, and this wear and tear can only
take place as the result of exercise.
The efficient remedy for dyspepsia is
work-out-of-door work-benehcial
and successful in direct proportion as
it is agreeable, interesting and profta-
ble."
