 0FFENsIvE PARTISANS MUST GO. The Sweep of Republican officials
 Soon to Begin.
 WASHINGTON, May 31.-Most of the Cabi net officers have already asked the heads of bureaus in their respective de- partments for confidential communications made up of lists of clerks whose services can be despensed with or whose places can be filled by civil service appointments with ad- vantage to the government. These lists will be ready for use next month and beside the bare mention of names will contain what is known about the clerical fitness, offensive partisanship, offensive habits and manners of each individual mentioned. The purpose evidently is to use this information in mak- ing removals from civil service classes in order to open the way for new appointments through the civil service commissioners. A member of the Cabinet is reported as say ing that he expects to dismiss one-quarter of his clerks this summer, but none would be dismissed not deserving it, but he intended to rely on Republican testimony as to who should go.

 Feathers.

At any rate she went to the house of prostitute of that name, who told her Mrs Maupin had left this city Mrs. Ball herself not wishing to employ her she was directed to the house of well known prostitute
 named Ella Herder, who employed her to do kitchen work at fifty cents a week. After remaining week, during which time she de- clares she saw nothing wrong about the house except that one particular man came every night and who the Herder woman said was her husband. Mrs. Herder made prop osition to her to become boarder at $7 2 week and she would get another girl tc do the kitchen work. This Annie Rhodes demurred at and turned her back or all inducements offered and resisted al threats made.
