PEARsoN's DISAPPOINTMENT.
An Example ofthe True Application
ofCiviI Service Reform.

WASHINGTON, March, 31.-A gentle
man very near the President, and un-
doubtedly speaking from actual knowl-
edge, reports that the reappointment of
Mr.. Pearson was made after most pa
tient examination of the facts connect
ed with the charges against him and his
answer to the same, which was yester-
day submitted and read by the Presi-
dent. The appointment, therefore, may
be considered a complete vindication of
the postmaster. 1t is further stated that
the reappointment of Pearson will con-
stitute a notable exception to the course
which the President may be expected to
pursue.
The New York postoffice is the largest
and most important to the country and
of interest to all the people, and especial
ly to the vast enterprises contained in
the metropolis. 1t is to-day considered
an illustration of the successful applica-
tion of Civil Service Reform principles
to an immense governmental establish
ment
This condition. added the gentle
man above referred to, has been
brought about very largely by the in
tellgent effort of Mr.. Pearson, and he is
thus identified in the success of reform.
To retain him insures faith and conf
dence in the movement which would re-
ceive a shock from his removal. His re.
tention was earnestly requested by a
number of business men of the city, both
democrats and republicans, and very
generally by independent republicans,
who did such good service in support of
the democratic candidates in the last
campaign"
1t is further authoritatively learned
that this act of the President must not
be regarded as indicating that in other
cases those opposed to the party of the
President will either be appointed or re-
tanned after the expiration of their term
Of Office. In answer to Lthe suggestion
that the reappointment of Mr.. Pearson
might cause great dissatisfaction in the
ranks of his party, the President is rep
resented as saying: '"The democratic
party is neither hyPocritical, unpatriotiC
nor ungrateful.'
ALBANY, n. Y, March 31.-The reap
pointment Of Pearson as postmaster oi
New York made great stir among the
the politicians here to-day. The repub

LIKE DICKENS DUTCHMAN.
A Thief Who Threatens to Live as
Long and as Badly as Langhei-

From the Denver Tribune Republican.
Charles Langheimer, who was for over
forty years an inmate of Cherry Hill
Prison, in Philadelphia, and during his
Imprisonment was made famous by
Charles Dickens in his American Notes,
in many respects has his counterpart in
the person of "Doc" Vanscoy, until
few days ago a convict in the Colorado
Penitentiary. Langheimer's cell was al
ways left vacant during his discharge,
for it was only question of time when
the old man, in later years known as
Dickens Dutchman," would again be
sentenced to another term of imprlson-
ment. Vanscoy on last Friday finished
serving out three-years' term in the
penitentiary at Canyon City, for the
crime of horse-stealing in Park county.
Next day after his release he was again
at his old trade of stealing in Pueblo,
where he had Immediately gone after
/ leaving prison, and now Vanscoy is con-
fined in Jail at Pueblo, awaiting trial on
the charge.
Vanscoy is man about fifty years of
age, has for seventeen years been confin-
ed in the penitentiaries of various states.
His hair has become gray, but he shows
no other signs that his prison life has
/ been detrimental to his welfare, He is a
man of unusually large proportions. He
/ has the form of an alderman in prosper
/ ity, and strides his cell and the prison
walks with as much dignity as banker
/ behind.his counter. He is joyial, keeps
well informed by reading the newspapers
and is man universally known in the
prison He says he gets into prison be-
cause he likes it better than ''roughing
! it on the outside.
@He has served sentences at Sing Sing,
New York, Columbus, o., jackson, Mich,
and a half dozen other penitentiaries.
Horse-stealing is his principal mania,
and, like Charles Langhcimer, Dickens
| Dutchman," he is no sooner released
than he is imprisoned on similar of
fense. 1t is natural for him to steal.
With him it is kind of mania. The ex-
perience of seventeen years in various
state prisons has not in the least quieted
his kleptomaniac tendencies.

THE DOLPHIN.
What the Ancients Thought ofthis
Wonderful Fish.


DR.. Biedermann, in Popular Science Monthly.
Hlian ascribed to it parental love
that did not fear death for the sake of
its young. The mother would not for
sake her young one when it was caught.
but would share captivity and death
with it: If one Of two was taken. the
mother would drive the other away
from the danger, and then go back to
perish with the caught one. Elian tells
of many such traits which seem to re-
veal a kind of human nature in the dol
phin and TO connect it most intimately
with man and his sea-life. Dolphins
We're said to accompany the ship of the
hardy sailor over the solitary sea, to en-
deavor to entertain him with their spor-
tive movements, and to be so corfiding
that, if they were called by the name of
Simon, they would come up and help
the fisherman in his work Of driving the
fish into his net. They forwarned him
Of the storm, also had a good feeling
toward bathing boys, and exhibited
1
al qualities of the dolphin appeared not
less deep to antiquity. If a dolphin was,
caught, he would greedily eat all the
fish that were caught with him, then
would break the net and escape; hence
the wise fisherman, if he casually caught
a dolphin, would draw a rush through
his nose and let him go, marking him
for another time. That such an animal,
to which lavish fancy ascribed so
many noble qualities, should have en-
joyed in reality a certain degree of hon
or and indulgence, follows, as matter
of course, especially when it is remem-
bered that the dolphin was of little val
ue when caught, but when at large could
often make himself very useful by driv-
ing up the smaller fishes toward the net,
as the whale does in the herring fishery.

The Chinese Love Bunting.

st. Louis Republican.
The military desire for flags in China
has developed into a passion. Every
fortress, intrenched position, camp, city
gate, or officers headquarters has from
one to 100, some of them of one bright
solid color, but most are arranged in
stripes, the colors red, white and blue
being preferred. Were but three stripes
used the resemblance to the French tri-
color would be almost exact, but as they
ordinarily use five or six the similarity of
color becomes a mere suggestion. When
blue is not obtainable, black, and, rarely
yellow, takes its place. AT the camp of
the Tso-tsung- tang regiment, on a pleas
ant knoll Just outside the walls of King
chun-foo, more than 100 large flags were
displayed, ranged with the precision of
the rows in a cornfield, there being one
for nearly every canvas tent, in which
the soldiers were comfortably installed.
The material used is Manchester cotton,
