A Checkered Career.

The condition of Thomas 81. Proud, who
attempted suicide at his residence on Fair
field avenue Saturday afternoon, was some
what improved last night. His recovery is
altogether probable, but it is feared his
brain will be affected. Proud, it appears,
has of late years been creature of circum-
stances. He formerly lived at Waterloo,
Ia, where he made considerable money. In
the height of his prosperity he was taken
sick and for over two years was under med
ical treatment On recovery it took all he
had previously earned to pay his debts. He
then came to st. Paul. A little after his
arrival here he was stricken with paralysis
and again rendered unable to work. With
large family to support and no means to
do it with, he courted death as a deliverer
from his troubles

small Postmasters Soon TO Go.

WASHINGTON, May 9.-It looks now as
if the postoffice department is going to
work at once to ''turn the rascals out
The postmaster general issued an order re-
quiring the clerks in the office of the first
assistant postmaster general to be at their
desks at $50 a. IN. and work until $50
p. m, taking only thirty minutes for lunch.
The order also intimated that any clerk
caught tagging OF Sinking duty in any
way would be Immediately dismissed. The
object Of this order, it is said, is
to issue the commissions of post
masters Of fourth-class offices all
over the country. There has been such a
clampr for change in these Offices that the
postmaster general, in order to meet the de-
mand. has been compelled to order the
clerks in the first assistants Office to do ex-
ira duty. It is alleged at the postotfice de-
partment that the reason that appointments
are not made to fill the fourth-class post
offices more rapidly is the fault of the sena-
tors and representatives. They have all
been notified to send in their recommends
tions and so far only very small per cent.
of them have complied. For in
stance, Senator Voorhees, had been
notified that there were tifty-four
fourth-class postoffices vacant in the four
Republican districts in Indiana, and he had
been requested to send in the names OF the
candidates he desired appointed 1t is
stated that if the Democratic members OF
congress would exhibit more promptness in
complying with these requests a greater
number Of appointments to fourth class
postoffices would be made. Senator Vo0r-
hees stated this afternoon that he only re-
ceiyed his notice last evening, and that the
candidates would be named for every one
of the fifty-four offices before shutdown this
evening.

CIeVeland's Love for Lothrop.


WASHINGTON, May 9.-The presidents
nomination of Mr.. Lothrop, as minister to
Russia, resulted from a case of love at first
sight Mr.. Lothrop is represented as a
large, powerful man, capable of enduring
any amount of physical labor. The presi-
dent has fondness for such men. He is a
crest admirer of Drawn and muscle.
He first met Mr.. Lothrop when
the latter, as chairman of
Michigan delegation, visited Buffalo to
pay his respects to the new president.
Turning to Col Lamont after Mr.. Lothrop's
departure, Cleveland exclaimed very en-
Enthusiastically: II like him. He is a
splendid fellow. l don't know when
have been SO favorably impressed before. !"
Whenever Lothrop's name was mentioned
to him subsequently, Cleveland has had
pleasant word for the Michigan lawyer.
Some time ago. when Mr.. Dickinson
of that state was advocating the claims of
certain Michigan men for different appoint
ments, the president interrupted him with:
why don't you recommend Lothrop' for
something. / would be glad to provide for
him handsomely" 1t does not appear,
however, that Dickinson acted upon this
suggestion. Several days ago the president

In one ofithe ladies' cells at the city hall

looking and well-dressed young man who
up to last evening was regarded as mys-
FERROUS prisoner. He was arrested Satur-
day and quietly locked up without being
booked and every effort was made ON the
part of the police to keep the affair quiet.
1t leaked out last evening that the
young man was arrested on the charge of
embezzling funds from the lumber firm of
Keller & Co. His name is Bennett and
while in the employ Of the firm as col
1ector he appropriated over 500. An eff
fort is being made on the part of his friends

A Newspaper Rebuked.

In his sermon last evening the pastor of
the cathedral parish took for his subject the
honor paid by Catholics to the Virgin Mary.
and went ON to explain the reasons why
Catholics the world over are in the habit of
decorating their dwellings with holy pic
lures, images of the crucifiXion, etc. In
this connection he remarked that, as some
exceptions might be taken to his remarks
of the Sunday before, regarding the preju-
diced accounts sent to newspapers by cor
respondents travelling in foreign Catholic
countries, he could amply justify his re-
marks by referring his hearers to COM
munication from Catholic Mexico, pub
lished in yesterdays Pioneer Press. The
reverend gentleman was very severe in his
structures on such ''idiotic trash" as was
contained in the article referred to, and
said the Catholic citizens of st. Paul and
all fair-minded men, be their creed what it
may, should express in manner not to be
mistaken their detestation and hatred OF all
such lying travesties on legitimate journal
ism coming, as they invariably do, from
prejudiced pens. Men who publish jour-
nal that pretends to be truthful and impair
tial, public educator, and then on the
Sabbath morning publish long string OF
buffoonery aimed at the cherished religion
of large part of the community, cannot
too soon be made to realize that it is not a
paying undertaking. However powerful a
public print may be, and however arrogant
it may become because of its fancied infiu-
ence over the masses of the people, it can
very soon be made to realize that the public
is its master when it draws upon itself the
hostility of all liberal, fair-minded men by
trampling upon and caricaturing the honest
belief and sacredly cherished religion of our
Catholic fellow-citizens. Such proceed
ing demands reprimand that will be felt
in every part of the rotten concern. 1t is
impervious to remonstrance; hit the bank

was expelled for breach of contract by the
Trenton club, has been reinstated and is to

The Southern league has adopted an ex-
cellent rule, and that is the one filming club
500 for leaving the field before the con-
clusion of the game, the fine to go to the
club remaining ready to fulfil it's contract to
the public.
The blacklisted players of the American
association left out in the cold, while their
league companions are laughing in their
sleeves, are Rowe, Dolan, Gleason, Mullane,
Weaver, AtkissOn and Bradley.
1t requires unanimous vote of the eight
league clubs to change the pitching rules,
and this will not be obtainable. Providence
wants to change, but Boston objects, as
does New York, and that. prevents the
change.
