tack of rheumatism and is now az Marble
head, Mass. Chief Clerk Weaver SAYS the

quality is coming in from the special agents
in the field. No attention has been paid
to labor strikes that have occurred
recently in various parts of the country.
although the bureau may at some future
day devote itself TO an examination of that
phase of the labor problem. The efforts of

Lincoln as an Economist.


President Lincoln, reared in the lap of
poverty, was very economical. When he
came to Washington he had saved from his
professional earnings $50, 900, and he did
not owe dime. During his presidential
term he saved from his salary of $50, 600
year, $50, 900, which Henry D. Cook in
vested for him in government securities.
He was not a slovenly man, but ne bought
cheap clothes, and cared little whether thew
fitted him or not. After he came to Wash
ington, Mrs. Lincoln used to see that he
was presentable, but he often rebelled, and
regarded white kid gloves as an unmiti-
gated nuisance. While clothes were to
Mr.. Lincoln only something to cover him
up, he only ate because it was a duty.
and did not know what was good to eat any
more than he did what wss good to wear.
He never drank Intoxicating LIQUORS or
used tobacco in any form. Neither did he
know how to play any game respectfully
well. His Illinois friends said that it was
as good as circus to see him play game
OF billiards. While he occasionally told
stories which were ''off COLOR" no one
ever charged him with an immoral act, and
the most accomplished sirens of the capital
failed in their attempts to beguile him.

of Council Bluffs while he was mayor.
With cheerful frankneSs Mr.. Vaughan
claimed that he would be able to carry
Iowa because the liquor element would
rally TO him. 1t is probable that the
Iowa mayor intended his interview for
Washington circulation only. If he did he
was deceived, for his views were quite
widely presented to Iowa people through
the GLOBE. To-day there was received at
the treasury department the application of
Mr.. Vaughan of Council Bluffs 10 be ap-
pointed superintendent of the metropolitan
police of the District of Columbia. 1t is to
be feared that the Iowa Democracy will
have to fall back on the other man.

CHAMBERSBURG, Pa, July 10.--A spicy
little romance has just come to light which
has furnished an interesting and amusing
topic to the citizens of Hagerstown and this
place. On Monday last a large
number of invited guests as
sembled at the residence of Mrs.
Andre II. Hager in Hagerstown to witness
the announced marriage ceremony of Miss
Rose Hager and j. c. Whitmere of Wash
ington, d. c. When the groom appeared,
however, he was Summarily dismissed by
the mother, who refused him an explana-
ton or permission to see the young lady,
who was at the time confined to
her room, the key of which the
mother kept in her pocket. After a
short imprisonment Rose was released in
an apparently submissive and resigned
state. In order to avert the annoyance Oc-
casiOned by the mothers conduct the young
lady was placed under the guardianship of
her aunt for trip to WilliamspOrt, Md
The aunt and the niece got as far
as the depot, where Rose gave her the
slip, boarded train, arrived in this place,
met her intended, and was married by the
Rev. G. w. Cremer the same day and left
for Washington. The bride is pretty brll-
nette and favOrite in Washington and
this place and the groom is an enterpriSing
young business man.

APIace For the Apaches.

WASHINGTON. July 1O.-G. Gordon
Adams and several other residents of Ari-
IONA have had interviews with the secretary
of the interior in reference to the proposed
transfer of the Apaches on the San Carlos
reservation to Indian territory. The secre-
tary examined the legal status of the In
dams and found that the act of Feb. Is,
1879, forbade the transfer of the Apaches
or any other Indians in Arizona or New
Mexico to the Indian territory until con-
gress should have legislated further upon
the subject. The Arizona delegation were
somewhat COMPOUNDED when their attention
was called to this act, the existence of which
was unknown to them. 1t was suggested
to them that the Apaches might. without
violating the statute, be transferred to No
Mans land, west of the Indian territory, or
to Greer county, Texas, tract claimed by
both Texas and the Indian territory. in the
event that it should be found to belong to
Texas. The suggestion was accepted by
the gentlemen, and they will make a strong
effort to secure the presidents consent to

troops stationed as Gen. Augur has directed,
he believes the southwestern frontier will
be fully protected, and an Indian invasion
will be made impossible. The first order
directs Lieut.. Col. Compton, now at Cross

Southern Kansas railway, to move his
command to point fifty miles south of
Dodge City, where the road from that place
TO Fort Tupply crosses the Cimmaron, to

Union Pacific Director.
Special to the Globe.

CINCINNATI, July 10.-Lamer V. Har-
rison, president of the First National bank
Of this city, received telegram from Gov.
Hoadly at Columbus this morning, asking
him if he would consent TO the use of his
name for the position of government direc-
tor OF the Union Pacific railroad, the posi-
ton which was declined by Edward F.
Noyes. There is little, if any, doubt that
Mr.. Harrison will accept the position. He is
a liberal Republican, and there is not likely
to arise the general howl which met the APP
pointment of Gov. Noyes. Gov. Hoadly
received letter from President Cleveland
during the day, in which he asked the gov
ernor TO give himself no uneaSinesS respect
ing the newspaper criticisms which had
been INDUCED in over his commentator of
Moves, that the declination of the latter had
been received, and calling on the governor
to suggest another name of a prominent
Republican inI0hiO, whom he might con-
slider most objectionable TO the Democrats
of the state. The governor was highly
elated over the letter OF the president and
is frankneSs, and Immediately held con-
ference with few of his friends, and the
result was telegram TO Mr.. Harrison.
There was none of that hasty
action which characterized the appoint
ment of Gov. Noyes TO the place. The
governor was so well pleased over the turn
affairs had taken that he Immediately an
nounced his intention of accepting the NOM
ination for governor as requested by the
president. This information has already
been communicated TO Judge Thurman and
Mr.. Converse, and all are agreed that

Rates Will GoUp Now.

NEW YORK, July 10.-The Western
Union Telegraph company to-day secured
the practical control of the American Rapid
company, which has been since September,
1888, part of the Bankers and Merchants
system. The contract is for an exclusive
exchange of business, and by an order OF
Judge Donahue it is understood the
Western Union is made the agent
of the receiver in the management
of the lines. The receiver OF
the Bankers and Merchants company said
to-day that he had heard of the rumors, but
knew nothing about the truth of them.
The Western Union company gives nc
guaranty of interest on the American Rapid
bonds, it is said, but agrees TO keep the
lines on similar terms TO those recently
made with the Southern Telegraph com
pany. Dispatches from Baltimore, Troy
and Rochester say the wires of the Ameri-
can Rapid were to-day transferred from the
Bankers and Merchants to the Western
Union.
