Mrs. Grant. Mrs. s.rtoris. Ma. Jesse

Mrs. Grant, Mrs. Sartoris, Mr.. Jesse
Grant and wife, and Colonel Grants
wife were sitting on the piazza or walk
ing in and out Of the cottage. Twi-
light was deepening into dusk, when
hurried movements were observed with
in the cottage. Servants fitted from
room to room, and Colonel Fred. Grant
moved nervously about; DR.. Douglas
was with the patient and the family
at alternate intervals, and some
event seemed imminent. Henry, the
nurse, was seen to wheel one Of
the Generals large chairs from the
sick-room to the cottage parlor. DR..
Douglas and Colonel Fred. Grant soon
supported the sick man from his apart
ment ard settled him in great chair
that the nurse had cushioned with
pillows. General Grants face was
turned toward the cottage-dOor,
through which, if he noted the sur
roundings, he could have seen the
brilliantly-lighted hotel, as the vista
through the native pine trees that
stood up dark and whispering with the
evening breeze on the slope above the
cottage. Mrs. Grant then took her place
beside her husband and famed him
almost necessarily. DR.. Douglas, when
questioned, said the General had been
brought into the parlor so that he might
be benefited by the freer air, but
though the sick man was coherent
when he spoke in a whisper he
spoke but little, and was sinking
surely. Members Of the family passed
through the rooms and gathered at the
doors and windows, and then were
seated on the piazza, but for short
time. and then passed from room to
room. The dusk had given way to
darkness. The General, seeming to
be taking little note Of occurrences
about him. still sat with his
face to the door. while the nurse and
Mrs. Grant waved fans before his face.
The critical moments were passing. [.
:. Grant. Jr., was summoned by wire.

moment occur. Mrs. Grant whispered
to Or. Newman shortly before 9 o'clock
and asked him to offer prayer. The
clergyman knelt beside the General
and offered prayer, while the family
and the physicians stood about with
bowed heads. 1t was an impressive
scene.

the package only four of the certif-

was at once in tituted, resulting, AT the
end Of half an hour, in finding the
missing certificate among the waste
paper and much crumpled up. The GER

the theories advanced is that some one

worthless. or that he or she was likely

Thomas J. Hickman, Of Louisiana, and
Emmett Seibels, Of Alabama, have been
appointed special agents of the Land
Office.
The law officer of the Post-0llce
Department has given an opinion 10 tho
effect that a postmaster who uses or
converts to his own use he postal
funds in his hands, although not re-
quired TO deposit them until the end Of
the current month or quarter, is guilty
OF cmbezzlement. II has been sup
posed by many postmaSters that under
section 1919 Of the Postal Laws and
Regulations Revised Statutes there
was no embezzlement by postmaster
until he had fully neglected to make his
deposits as required by the regulations
but the opinion holds that under the pro
visions Of the postal laws Revised
Statutes, 3S46) postmasters are for
hidden to loan, use, or deposit in I'M
authorized banks, or exchange for other
funds, any public money collected by
them. If the postmaster does use such
moneys he wrongfully converts them to
his own use, and the act Of February
5, 1879, provides that any officer Of
the United States or sssis ant who
shall embezzle or COW ert public funds
10 his own use shall be punished by
fine and Imprisonment. Under this act
any postmaster who uses postal funds,
intending to make them good when the
time for depositing arrives, is liable to
prosecution and punishment.

SOON after Secretary of Treasury Man. ming WAS comfortably seated in his new office, he discharged number of clerks and special agents Tn his department giving out as a reason for his action that he had no use for them and that the public service would rot suffer from the change. At the same time it was given out that Mir. Trevett, chief clerk of the appointment division had been removed and that his place had been filled by one Eugune Higgins of Baltimore, a friend of Senator German. The above statement was perhaps very near the truth, but the better class of the people of Baltimore made such howl against the man Higgins that MT. Manning found himself in deep water before he had scarcely become warmed Tn hls new office, and to add further to his tr ublss the President was very much dIspleased with his nasty action in appointing man even on the representation of SO promi- rent a Senator as GOrman-wlthout first learning something of the appli- cants character and qualifications. About this time the civil service folks had got wind of this irregular proceeding which was not in accordance with the rules Of reform, and perfect storm of Mugwump letters showered down upon the head of the president, lad the law down to hlm and asked him to reinstate Trevett who IS a man of ability who rose from subor- dinate position and should not be dis turbed. The dispatches of last night show that these remonstrances have had their effect, and that the administration is trying to back down from its position by stating that Trevett had rendered hls resignation, and that Higgins had not yet been appointed to the place. 1t IS not likely Mir. Manning will make an other such mistake as 1t greatly dls- turbes his chief. who is without doubt sincere ID his efforts to enforce the civil service laws. MT. Cleveland is developing more backbone than either party supposed he possessed. and more tact in enforcing his views than he was credited with.

COAL IN MEXICO.

Extensive beds of coal are reported to have been discovered near the Mexican Central railroad and about midway be. tween El Paso and the City of Mexico
 The value of these coal beds to Nex;co IS beyond computation. There is Der. hHps no section of North America that IS so greatly in need of cheap fuel AS Mexico. In localities where dense pop uiatlon IS found or where large mining operation have been carried on in years past, the entire valley, mesa and noun tain side has been stripped Of everything that would make fuel. In some locali- nes common sage brush is worth S3O a cord, while better grades of hard wood run up as high as SS0 for cord of wood. 5 feet long-piled in a cord feet high by eight feet in length. It will be readily seen that the heed of fuel is Mexico Is great, and fl the new coal mines turn out as they premise, the event will prove of scarcely less im- portance than the building of Ameri- can railroads into that country. There are a great many mines ID Mexico that owing to the scarcity of fuel can not be worked, but if cheap coal IS introduced il will be possible tC start up hundreds of smelters that have been idle for years and years. Gradually the leaves of our sister republic will be turned over and each new discovery will add impetus and strength to the people of that hitherto slow going land until finally it will bound forward and take its place as one of the progressive and ambitions countries. In the North American Continent are those who have been used to looking upon Mexico Gs finished coui try that would never be able to pull out of the ruts formed by past generations, may yet live to see 1t an energetic ambitious an prosperous nation, and one of the most useful and powerful allies of the United States. There IS no question but such feeling prevails among the better class of the people of that country, and that class Is now, and will continue to be the ruling class in Mexico for many generations to come.
