An Oversight.

1t is the rumor that the position of
assistant postmaster has been ten
dered by Mr.. John Cochran, the new
Democratic postmaster, to Mr.. Paul
Furst, but whether or not he has de-
clined or accepted is not known. MI.
Cochran's bond was returned from
Washington City and received yester-
day not approved, owing to the fact
that il was informal, inasmuch as the
same had not been signed, as required
by law, by Mr.. Cochran, the princl-
pal, the defect was remedied and the
bond again forwarded for approval.

The Chorus Girl.

From the New York = ournal. 81
"Isee girls every day going to the drar

for something to do, and wondering
why it is they don't get it-nice girls,
too. They never get there. They new

body wants to tell them, that they are
not good looking enough for chorus
singers. Do you suppose that any

rus that can sing or act? No. They
want chorus that dresses, and what
they call good looks. They pay pre-

that is not noticed on the street,

seen plenty OF plain girls get on for a
short time because they could sing or
dance or had some accomplishment
that made. them of some value to q
manager; but in the end they get thrown
out for somebody else who can do the
same things, and who is. pretty, too.
Do you suppose that the success Of

the opera is good, or that the princi-
pals know their business? If you
do you don't know much. It is the
