The Story Of" we, Us 4 CO.,

certain DR.. Pulsiver, an impecuntous Now
York physician, advertises for partner with
capital; II is answered by an old veterinary
surgeon from wyoming Territory, who brings
the requisite amount OF money and q number
OF inventions. They form n copartnership
under the firm name OF "We, Us 4 Coz" sew
eral patients arrive aud are prescribed for;
the country doctor meemerizes the matd-0f
all work, who suddenly becomes pugtltstlc
and attacks one of the patients. The O0ok0o
appears In the ONCE; plrsued by the Crypf0
0TdBl he falls Into the clutches OF the doctors,
Dut they find their match IN CO0kO0. Tho In
valide are gathered toge her at last and In the
finale all start for the springs.
The second act begins at the Sanitarium.
There are several springs full OF steam, sui
phur and iron. Here the marvellous cures are
effected and the comical situations occut;
here also the pretty music and the pretty
bathers are heard and seen to advantage. The
bad boy makes confusion worse confounded,
until he is thrown into the spring by his SUIT
fering victims. His sisters grief aud tue
happy denouement. The last act discovers
the Sunnyside Hotel, or the revolving house,
the Scotchmen are on the prowl, complications
arise at the different windows, ana the wrong
party receive the lunch, step-ladders are
brought into use but accomplish nothing, An
Italian duet 10 resorted 10 20 capture the
heiress, and all sorts OF tricks and devices are
Iesorted TO without avail. The veterinary
finally reaches the window, when the CrRpt0.
gram closes the sash upon the doctor, tho
house reyolves ana discovers the Scotcnmen
at other windows, the inmates OF the Hotel
rush out and the curtain descends with a
lively finale.

RICHARD GRANT WHITE, most savage
and scrupulous of verbal and grammatic
critics, is said to 10 suffering from nervous
prostIaton, caused by reading some cur
rent newspaper illusions to the structure
recently completed south of the White
House in cOmmemoratiOn of the life aud
deeds of the first President of the United
States, and which is popularity described as
the Washington Monument
1t ltappears that American journalism has
taken some liberties with the English Ian
guage aud the mighty memorial. Colonel
Casey's giant offspring could escape from
almost any of its criticisms on plea of
misnomer.
In the first place 1t will not do to de-
scribe as a "monolith"-so plainly meaning
single stone-a structure composed of
thousands of blocks of marble. 1t will not
do to designate as an obelisk, which. accord
ing to Worcester, implies the idea of mon
olithic column; structure which is CON
fessedly not monolithic, which is hollow,
and although obelisk in form, is not
even an imitation obelisk, while marfed by
open doors and yawning windows.
Enterprising journalists will please cross
Of "obelsk" and "monolith" from their
list Of terms descriptive Of Washington's
so-called Monument.
Whether the term monument" eau be
accurately applied may be open to ques-
tioD. Webster says a monument is "a
building, pillar or stone erected to preserve
the remembrance Of person or event"
The Evening critic., 1885-01-24

The ceaseless, senseless din on tho floor of
the House of Representatives increases with
every session and becomes more and more
annoying to all who desire to speak or to
listen. There is not SO disorderly au audi
torium in the land; there is not State
legislature that would ordinarily permit
such racket; there. is not an actor who would
face so tumultuous and inattentive an audi
ence.
If this racket is impossible to curb, there
is at least one thing that can be done: There
can and should be system OF bells or other
signals to do away with the hand-clapping,
Whaling and shouting for pages. No
greater annoyance to speaker on the floor
or listener in the gallery can be conceived
than the momentary Interruptions of hand
clapping and yelling.

Miss nrnrgie MitcheII.

The Cincinnati Commercial, speaking OF Mag.
gle Mltchells forthcoming engagement In
Washington and OF her first appearance at the
new opera-house, details an Interesting ac-
count OF "Fanchon's" visit 10 Maud s. while
In that city and Gays:
"Mr. and Mrs. ii. II. Paddock maggie Mitch
ell and Mr.. Charles Mitchell, brother OF the
universally beloved and admired little actress
drove out to Chester Park yesterday afternoon
TO call on Maud s.
"hirs. Paddock, who is an enthusiastic lover
OF horses, and who herself drives during va
cation the prettiest pair OF ponies owned In
Long Branch, has visited the Queen OF the
Turf during every engagement she has
played here since the coronation, and the an
nual interview seems to have come TO be ex.
pected by her Majesty, and to be source OF
"when the distinguished visitors arrived
yesterday the Queen was enjoying a winter
afternoon slesta, but upon being informed
who her callers were by her Lord Chamber
lain, ehe arose, made her toilet, aud received
them in the gracious way which she has for
those whom she is really glad 70 see, partak-
Ing OF sugar from Fanchon's hands and direct
Ing Lord Bair to have champagne served"
Apropos OF all this, Mr.. Kingeley, whose
summer residence adjoins Fanchon Cottage,
which, with
"wlde open doors glancing welcome to ali"
is so we'll known at Long Branch, masked
though II be with roses, has q nlly OF rare
promise, named In honor OF his neighbor,
"AIaggie MITCHELL" that may one day rival the
present Queen OF the Turf.
The real Maggie Mitchell occupied box at
Heucks last evening, and expressed herself
as having had full day OF pleasure, for,
strange as II may appear, this Woodworking
little artiete has seen so few plays In her time
that she can readily recall them all.
When other distinguished actresses ara
playing, so Is she, and their vacation has been
hers. II is q fact that she has never seen the

for rest. All OF which goes 10 show that high
position In any profession Is not easily won
and that no one has earned her enylablo posi-
tiOn, either as q woman or as a star, mnre con
scientlously than Maggie Mitchell, whose fame

OFFICERS, INTENTION!
ruporta,torders from the Secretary of J

Important Orders from the Secretary of Var.
Secretary Endicott has prepared a sur
prise for army officers by amending certain
army regulations so as to make them read
as follows:
An officer shall not fill any staff appoint
:nent or other situation the duties OF which
will detach him from his company, regi-
ment or corps until he has served at least
three years with his regiment or corps, nor
shall an officer remain detached longer than
four years unless assigned to special duty
by the war department.
The secretary promulgates this change
with the following order:
"All officers below the grade OF field Off
GERS who have been absent for a period oj
four years or longer, from their regiment OF
corps will be relieved from their present
duties as soon as practicable after the re-
ceipt OF this order, and directed to report
Tor duty with their respective regiments or
corps. In the selection OF aides-de- camps
to fill vacancies created by the operation
OF the last preceding paragraph, major and
brigadier generals will confine their selec-
tions to the officers OF regiments of the line
OF the army not prohibited in the regula-
tions and prefer any to subalterns."
This action on the part OF Secretary
Endicott is in pursuance OF his policy to
provide for a rotation OF officers. Repeated
efforts have been made in congress to secure
legislation that would have the same effect
as the above regulation, but each attempt
has failed. The secretary OF war accom-
plishes the change by amending the regua-
tions, which he claims he has authority
to do.

THE SPECIAL DELIVERY SYSTEM.


| A circular relating to the immediate de
livery system, which is to be put in opera
ton on October 1, has been prepared and
will be sent to postoffices at once. After
quoting section OF the postoffice appro-
priation bill, which provides the terms
under which immediate deliveries to be
made, the circular says: It has accord
ingly been decided to introduce a special
delivery system on the LIST OF October,
1885, at all postofIices at which it is per-
mitted by law, viz. Those at which the
free delivery system is in operation and
those in cities and towns having popula-
ton of 1000 or over as shown by the
last federal census. Suitable supplies of
these special delivery stamps will be sent
to any postofice in the country which may
make a requisition for them and when re-
ceived they are to be taken up by the post
master in his account current and ac-
counted for quarterly in the same manner
as ordinary postage stamps. They are to
be sold by postmasters in required amount
and to any person who may apply for
them but they can be used only for the
purpose OF securing the immediate delivery
OF letters addressed to and received in the
mails at any OF the offices designated
as special delivery offices. Under no
circumstances are they to be used in the
payment OF postage of any description or
OF registry fee, nor can any other stamps
be employed to secure special delivery, ex-
cept the special delivery stamp. The spe-
cial delivery stamp must.be in addition to
the lawful postage. and letters not pre-
pared with at least one full ia tie of postage
in accordance with the laws and regua-
tons must be treated as held for postage,
even though bearing special delivery
stamp in addition to the full postage and
registry fee required by the law and regula-
tons. Special delivery letters will be de-
livered by messenger within the carrier
limits OF a free delivery office and within
radius OF one mile from the postoffice and
at all other special delivery Offices Post
masters at fourth class offices are not en-
titled to commissions on special delivery
stamps in any case. No effort will be
spared to expedite the mailing OF letters
bearing special delivery stamps addressed |
to special delivery Offices. Special delivery |
stamps must be effectually cancelled at the |
office of mailing in the same way as orli- |
nary postage stamps. Letters bearing n |
special delivery stamp in addition to the |
lawful postage may be mailed at any post
office in the country, but it will not be en-
titled to an immediate delivery by messen-
ger when addressed to postoffice to which
5he special delivery system has not been
extended.

MURDERED FOR INSURANCE.
Investigation of a Suspicious Case at
Hunters Point, Long Island.

The coroner of Paterson, n. j., accompa.
MED by the chief of police and the coroner OF
Hunters Point, Long Island, and a couple OF
physicians, went to the Lutheran cemetery
near the latter place to cxhume the body of a
woman. On the way Chief of Police Grant
told representative OF the Associated Press
the following story: For two years past a fam
lily named Bauer, occupying highly respecta-
BILE position in society, resided at Haledon,
near Paterson.
The Bauers had previously resided in New
| York City and appeared to be people of
wealth. Early last June Mrs Bauer was ia
| ken sick, and ait ten days illness died, as
certified by the attending physician of peri
toDitis. Mr. Biuer seemed to feel the loss of
his wife deeply, and had an expensive funer-
al. The memory of the late Mrs. Bauer had
almost died out when some strange rumors
got afoat which startled the community
il was learned that Mrs. Bauer had been
heavily Insured in several comma
mics and some peculiar circumstances
surrounding her illness and death led to the
suspicion that she had been murdered In or.
der to obtain the amount of insurance and
defraud the companies. The total amount of
insurance on Mrs. Bauer's life was S53OO)
1t is understood that the Equitable and New
York lie insurance COM anes paid the
amounts OF their policies before rumors of the
fraud got abroad. The officers of the Mutual
Reserve company, after consulting other com
panies decided to refuse payment until
thorough investigation had been made. The
cries when advanced that Mrs. Baner had
been poisoned or that she had been taken
away and another body or dummy buried in
the cemetery.
Arriving at the cemetery the coffin was ex-
humed and opened. Upon being measured
the body was found to be six inches shorter
than Mrs. Bauers when she was alive One
OF the physicians who had examined Mrs
Bauer when the application for insurance was
made, said she had a pug nose and light
hair, while the corpse had Grccian nose and
dark hair, but he would not be positive of all |
the particulars. Drs. Satterthwaite and |
Chesman, of New York, then opened the body |
and took out the intestines, which they ex- |
amined and sealed up. They refused to give |
the result of the examination in New York, |
where the entestines have been taken. The
BODY was placed again in the coffin and re-
inferred. Louis Bauer the husband, to whom
all the policies are payable, carries on gro
Gerry in New York
