The New Collectors Appointments.

Gen. A. Q. Parkinson, the newly in
stalled collector of internal revenue for
this district, announces the following or
ganization Of his Office: Chief deputy,
jerome D. Clark. of Madison: travelling
deputy, first division, John Habhegge:,
of WATERFOWL; travelling deputy, second
division, Thomas Kennedy, of Dodge
vile; gauger and deputy for sale of
stamps at Watertown, G. II. jacob. Mr..
Clark was chief deputy under the old
collector, Gen. Harnden, and is very
capable officer. So far as the Offices for
this city are concerned, the appointments
are good ones, and as to the office of
gauger, it is surrendered with grace by
the present incumbent into the hands of
one known to be fully competent to
discharge the duties Of the position.
The office of gauger has been held un.
lnterruptedly by the editor of this paper
since such an Office was created by the
Government in September, 1868, sixteen
months previous to that time he havins
held the position of inspector of spirits and
cigars, an Office abolished when that of
gauger was established. The records of
the Internal Revenue Department show
that out OF over two hundred gaugers
commissioned in 1868, less than twenty
have been in uninterrupted service since
that time.

From Germ ana.

Alex Buchheit, who is on a trip to
Germany with his father, writes his friend
Ralph Nsrris, the following crisp and
interesting letter from "Fatherland:"
WEIsBADEN. June 81, 1885.
DEAR RALPH would like to write
you few lines to let you know how it is
on this side Of the pond. On the 9Th of
May we left New York and went on the
steamer Elbe and on the 18th arrived at
Bremen. During that time the weather
was cold and stormy, so it took one dav
more than usual to cross the ocean. The
Elbe is very large steamer and moves
about fifteen miles an hour. We had
tour meals day on the steamer which
was very good, but I could not epiov s.
much, for L was seasick four DAYS. From
Bremen we went to Zweibreucken. Here
my father is at home and he was yery
glad to see the paternal roof again. Then
we went to Berlin; this is a very nice
city. l have seen castles of the fourth
century which are very near falling 10
pieces. Then we rode down the Rhine
IN steamer which is lovely. And now
we are in Weisbaden which is also a nice
place. We also intend to 90 to Paris
before we leave. Here in Germany you
don't hardly see anything but soldiers
AID women carrying big baskets filled
with eggs and all kinds Of stuff, on their
heads. | don't care to stay much longer
in Europe for am sick of it; I'll would
rather be back to sweet America and 90

will start from Bremen on the 10th of
July and be home about the LIST of Au-
gust. hope that you have enjoyed
yourself at our school picnic and are
having very pleasant time in vacation.

Governor kinkead's relatives at Lam

telegraph that he is dying in Alaska.
On the eve OF his return from Sitka to
San Francisco, he was stricken with
paralysis.
This news was doubtless brought by
steamer to Port Townsend, Washing
ton Territory, and telegraphed thence
to Ohio, and as it takes two weeks or
more for. the steamer to reach Puget
Sound, he must have been stricken
three weeks ago. AS there is mail
communication between the United

rnE AFGHAN QUESTION.

Reports by telegraph relative to the
Afghan question, the settlement of
which may result in war between
England and Russia, are conflicting.
According to one report, the French
Foreign Office is in receipt of informa-
tion which shows conclusively that the
Russians are determined to sieze Herat,
and are now massing troops within
striking distance of the place for that
purpose. Another report states that
the Berlin papers have indispntable
evidence that the warlke rumors,
though coming from many different
places, all emanate from one source,
and are inspired by one set of copspir-
ators for speculative purposes. The
headquarters of the conspirators is said
to be in Berlin, but their agents work
on every bourse or exchange in Europe.
The spectators are endeavoring to
make it appear that the Russians are
perfecting arrangements as rapidly as
possible to attack and capture Herat,
the principal city in Afghanistan. As
the English are bound by treaty to
preserve the integrity of that country,
and assist the Ameer with men, money
and arms, Russian advance on Herat
means war between England and Rus
STA, and the probability of such con-
test affects the stock market.

ylaidens and widows !.

There is any amount of fun in court
inc a Young GIRL who has not been used
to it. She swallows all the soft things
fellow says, but when it comes to
popping the question or something OF
that kind, she gets frightened more or
less and wants time to consider until
there are enough loopholes for her lover
to slip out through without the least
bit of trouble, if he happens to see one
he could love shade or two better.
Young girls are timid and shy in earn
est, and if a fellow is not pretty certain
he has found precisely the angel he Is
looking for, he can manage so as to
have the refusal of her for year or
more and at the same time manage to
keep his neck out of reach of breach
of promise suit when he happens to
meet some other sweet.faced angel that
seems to him to be better suited to his
taste. 1t is different with widow.
She gets rid of all her shyness at the
earliest convenient opportunity, and
finds out the principal things she de-
sires to know of him before she allows
him to get acquainted The schoolgirl
of Is trusts herself to any young fellow
on sixty or ninety days sight without
security; but the widow, like thrifty
wholesale house, goes out and exam
ines the mercantile reports concerning
him, and then sells to him on her own
terms for cash. She has him sized
up before he comes to market,
and when she looks as if she
were very artless creature, and fights
shy Of him whenever he happens to sit
a little close to her on the sofa, there
are ten chances to one that he will
never look any further, but will buckle
right up to her and put the question
fairly and squarely, and when he has
done so she is not going to tremble and
blush, and ask for week or a month
in which to make up her mind. She
will just wind her arms around his neck
and look up into his face with one of
Ella Wheeler's fiery yearns, and before
he has had time to catch his breath, he
will find himself nailed to the cross with
yes" that pierces him to his very
soul.

RAILROAD GRAZING LANDS,
The Central raci&ie Chaases It's Policy
Regarding Them.


The San Francisco Bulletin says a
change has been made by the Central
Pacific Railroad in it's policy governing
the disposal of grazing lands in Nevada
and Utah. Heretofore such lands have
only been sold 10 such lots as the pur-
chaser might select. In future, how.
ever, the stock raiser will find grazing
lands divided into natural grazing
ranges, the boundary being determined
by the Typographical feaeilses of the
country, and each range having an ann
pie supply of water. Some of the
ranges are as saaall as 10000 acres,
some as large as 250, 600, while one is
500. 600. acres in extent. These ranges
will be found to have natural bounda-
ries, and their relation to water is such
as to render it improbable that stock
will stray to other ranges than those on
which they are placed. These ranges
swill either be sold or leased en- long
time and easy terms. The determine.
'tion to allow such lands 20 be leased is
due to many inquiries by stock raisers
for lands to lease. which they have
hitherto been unable to secure. Many
Sssen have money enough to stock one
with nothing left to purchase one, and
It 70 to put ranges within the reach OF
slch men that it has been determined
tO.ahopt the policy OF leasing.

BODY where she carries her babies.
This she holds open with her HANDY
little hands while putting them in or
taking them out with her mouth.
When browsing they put their fore-feet
to the ground; at other times they res.
on the lower half Of their hind legs and
thick, strong tail. They are hunted for
their flesh, which is delicate to eat, and
for their skins. from which gloves and
shoes are made. The Kangaroo can
get over the ground swiftly, rod at a
leap. 1t sometimes turns on the dogs
and tears them to pieces with its sharp
hinder claws; or it catches one in its
arms and bounds away to the river and
browns him, and it has been known to
treat a man the same.
