in the cabinet on the second floor,
where coins from every country are
placed in glass-covered cases. The man
from the Sunny South eyed a coin
struck two thousand years ago in Asia

tenance became savage, he .clenched

It is always very pleasant for a man

by crooked telegram, and liked to
have been tragedy;
A gentleman of this city, returning
from visit to his mother and sister in
Missouri was met at Denton by the dis
tressing telegram, "Your sister is
dead" Shocked at this unexpected and
sudden calamity, he returned at once,
tlled with grief ut the untimely loss OF
30 dear rela live. AT Denison his anX-
iety and distress was as suddenly re-
heved by corrected telegram, announ-
cling that "Dr. Sizer is dead" Not
doubling, however, at first, that his sis
ter was dead, he had telegraphed to his
mother, "Keep the body until | arrive"
and now his mother was shocked NJ
such message, and anticipated that
some calamity had happened in Texas.
kilograms explanatory were living
back and forth all day yesterday, and
the gentleman is not only considerably
out OF pocket, but out of temper like
wise ut such cOutre temps.

Postal Clerks vs.. Postmaster.

nttioni aud that he has excluded them

"pen", to use their mode OF exprassinr
II, six by eight feet In size In which t0
transact their business. Mr. Garrison
says there was not sufficient room for
them IN the office proper, and that he
had room constructed for their special
use. The clerks claim that Mr.. CARR.
sou has preferred charges against sew.
oral OF them, and there matters stand.
