Reform OUTRAGE.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 14.-Among
the clerks discharged from the
Treasury last week was Mrs. Mary
e. Kali, of Ohio. Mrs. Kali is a we'll
known lady CT literary ability and
author of several poems of merit.
She is poor, and with her children
dependingon her salary for her living.
She went to Auditor John S. Will
liams to see if her case was hopeless,
and asked why she was discharged.
"Because you are offensive parti-
SAN" was the reply, with the rough
ness and impoliteness characteristic
of Mr.. Williams.
"Was | not efficient and faithful,
and was not my work satisfactory ~
asked Mrs. Kali.
Certainly. No complaints to
make. You are simply put out be-
cause, as | say, you have been an of.
fensive partisan"
ain what did my offensive parti-
sanship consist ~ was Mrs. Kail's
next question.
"You wrote campaign song for
the Republicans in Ohio" was the re-
ply. "Good day."

the accounts of the BALTIC. and Ohio
Railroad for transportation of troops,
horses and stores over it's lines during
the late war. The amounts paid to
the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad
aggregated between eighteen and
twenty millions of dollars, and the re-
opening ofthe accounts would involve
an additional sum ofseveral hundred
thousands of dollars. The accounts
were closed fifteen years ago, and
several corrections were made at diff

THE MARTINSBURG HERALD,

ST. THOMAS, ONT, September
16.--Julnbo, the $4,000 elephant,
was killed on the Grand Trunk Air
Line track half mile east of here
last night. His keeper was leading
him along the track, when a freight
train came up behind unnoticed, and
ran him down. He was injured SO
badly that he died in thirty min
utes. The trick elephant Tom
Thum was also injured, his leg be-
ing broken.
Jumbo was probably the most IA
nous elephant that ever lived, and
at the time of his death was the
largest animal in captivity. He be-
longed to the African species, and
was about twenty-five years CT age.
Taken to the London Geological
Gardens when baby, as he attain
ed his growth he was used to convey
loads of children upon his back about
the gardens, and when so employed
was perfectly tractable. Subsequent.'
ly he became unruly, and he was
sold in 1882 to Mr.. p. 7. Barnum
for $4,000. The sale was loudly de-
nounced by the London press, and
the people went into popular
"craze" upon the subject, lamenting
his removal as q national calamity.
Legal efforts made to prevent his
departure were Intellectual, and he
was placed on board the Assyrian
Monarch, in which vessel he reach
ed New York On the 9th of April,
1882. The elephant and the iron
bound box in which he made the
voyage, weighing together twelve
and a half tons, was hauled to the
Madison Square Garden by sixteen
horses. Jumbo soon became recon-
ciled to his new surroundings, and
he has been exhibited, in connection
with Barnum's show, to great num-
bers of people in many parts of the
country. 1t is said that the total
cost of bringing him to the United
States was $4,000, exclusive of the
price paid for him. The height of
Jumbo was eleven feet and a-half.
His immense bulk was such that
front view of him was about as i'm
posing as a side view. Other ele-
plants looked like pigmies beside
him. His trunk for several feet at
ter leaving his head was as thick as
a stout mans body. When he lifted
his head and stretched his trunk up
ward, he could reach up twenty-six
feet, or five feet higher than the
largest of the other elephants IN his
owners extensive herd.

Julio Santos, the American citizen
who was kept in prison nearly eight
months by the Ecuadorian govern
ment, arrived in Hagerstown We'd
nesday, where he has several broth
ers at school. He says the prisons
in which state prisoners are con
fined in Ecuador, are crowded and
filthy and that the treatment of the
prisoners is rough. He was arrest,
ed on charge of being in the insur-
rection against that government, but
claims that the real cause was the
desire to confiscate his property and
destroy his large export business
which was iniuring some of the gov
eminent officials likewise engaged.
He puts his loss at 100000, and
will make an effort to reclaim it
through our government.

continued through five decades, the
