Seeking office for Rosecrans.

Special TO the clone.
WASHINGTON, May 14.-Among the
delegations at the White house yesterday
was one of about dozen ex-Union soldier
members of congress in behalf of Gen.
Rosecrans. They did not mention any spe-
cific office for the general, but wished an
assurance that he would be rewarded
for his lifelong service to the Democratic
party. The president assured the delegation
that he had not forgotten Gen. Rosecrans,
and was considering what office to offer
him. 1t is rumored by certain Californians
in Washington that Gen. Rosecrans is to be
made recorder of deeds for the district.
They state that he has been resident of
this city for eight years, and no longer be-
longs to the Pacific slope. This attempt to
run in the general as a resident of the dis
trict is not palatable to Westinghouse.
Rosecrans up to the 4th Of March, when
his congressional term expired, was most
certainly a resident of California.

why Men Don't Wed.

From the Atlanta CONSTITUTION.
The reluctance of young men to marry Is
rapidly taking the shape of one of the most
perplexing social problems of our time.
In sections where the women Outnumber
the men by about 10 per cent, the situa-
ton presents many difficulties. But the dis
inclination of young men to marry seems
to be in the nature of a contagious cpl
demic 1t is spreading all over the country
except in agricultural regions where people
hold fast to old-fashioned ways. The trou-
bic is, too many of our young men are de-
termined to marry rich women, or to accunl-
ulate wealth themselves before entering into
the welded state. This state of affairs is
unhappy and demoralizing. 1t is difficult to
point out a remedy for this growing evil.

Betting ON nh cir Babies.

A novel wager was made in Middletown
the other day between young lawyer and
a gentleman engaged in business in New
York. Each is the father of boy baby, OF
which he is very proud, and the CONVEX
sation happening to turn upon the young
sters, each father was emphatic in his as
sertions that his offspring was larger and
more promising than that of his friend.
The outcome of the talk was an agreement
that each should deposit 500 in the savings
bank, there to remain, with principal and
interest untouched, until both the babies
have attained the age of 81 years.
On attaining his majority each of the babies
is to be weighed, and the one tipping the
scales at the greater weight is to be en-
titled to the $500 and interest.

to the influence which Mr.. Errington, spe-

over the action of the Holy See, especially
as they believe it was accomplished by

curiosity under the cloak of charity. Vast
as the halls, Hobbies, corridors, saloons and
galleries are, they were very crowded
after midnight, when tickets were
sold at the portal at half price.
Electric lustres on the Edison
model were principally used What was
most wanted were handsome and pretty
women and girls and fne-looking men.
The plainness and physical poverty
of both were depressing. sat an

dering the central hall, where the band

the company streamed by me. I counted
FIVE fairly good-looking and three beautiful
women. Exquisite dress was ilnpo-
tent to disguise the prevailing
ugliness. The pretty passions and
muck-rake cares of Zolas bourgeois were
stamped on the majority of the faces. There
never was Gretna Green in France, and
too much attention has been always paid to
candle-ends and cheese-paringS by the
middle classes.

Some Questions i'm E veryday Life
From the Ladies', Home Journal

What is ones social duty? Often we
hear one friend ask this question of an
other. Is ones social duty done by accept
ing and giving invitations? What do we
bind ourselves to in accepting the hospi-
tality of friend OF acquaintance? Is our
duty by her done when we have entered the
portal of our hostess and have given her
greeting? If WIS are man, do we do our
duty when we neglect speaking to the Ia
dies whom we know? If we see chance
when we can be of service to our hostess
in making things pleasant and agreeable
for her, is not that our duty to be ready and
happy to do her bidding or even to antici-
pate it? If we are woman our power to
do more than to make ourselves as agree
able as we may is limited. We can then
only be kind, generous and considerate of
other women as it comes in our way. We
cannot seek the opportunities of being po-
lite and making the happiness of those
about us as men can. SelfShness, alas that
we see so much of it where there is the least
excuse for it.

Miners Having a Merry Time.

Special TO the Globe.
PERRYvILLE, w. Va, May 14.-Infor-
nation from Pocahontas, Lozerville county,
Va, just across the mountains from this
place, says reign of terror exists there
The cause Of the trouble is another out
break On the part of the colored coal miners.
For several weeks past the miners
have been making trouble for the proprie-
tors of mines and residents of the town gen.
orally, and many acts of violence have been
enacted, which, owing to the isolated
situation of the place. have not found
their way into print. Last Mon
day was the regular monthly payday,
and after receiving their money the men,
excited by whisky, INDUCED in numerous
bloody rows. Policeman Neuels, the only
officer in the place, arrested two of the men
and confined them in jail. The arrest COM
ing to the ears of the thoroughly -crazed
miners, they set out for the jail
with the vowed intention Of tearing down
the building and hanging Neuels on sight
The mob forced its way into the building
and released the prisoners, partially destroy
ing the structure. Neuels was afterward
caught but escaped with his life through the
efforts of Mine Superintendent Dodd, who
effected his release by addressing the riot
erS, and in the course of his remarks threat
ening to telegraph to the governor for
troops. A renewal of the trouble is said to

THE IOWA HOWL.
Still Trying to Find Out Who Will
Jams Is-.IndOrsed BY RePub-
licans.

Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, May 14.-Congressman
Murphy of Iowa has gone home, but Con-
gresSmen Weaver and Fredericks are still
here agitated over the appointment of Mar
shall Williams and doing all they can to
procure it's revocation. The secretary of
war, from Massachusetts, and the
secretary of the navy from New York,
are out of the city. These Iowa congress
men have not been able to find out who the
new marshal for the southern half of the
state is. The congressman and some of the
other Iowa Democrats here speak very
bitterly about the appointment of an Iowa
official on the recommendation of Judge
McCrary and lot of other Republicans,
Henry ClewS and other New
York bankers, some of them Repub-
licans and Democrats, who live so
far from Iowa. Williams is said to be a
prominent lawyer, but the Iowa Demo
cratic congressman are lawyers, and they
never heard of him, so that it locks as if
Williams or the congressman were rather
obscure members Of the Iowa bar. The
very fact that Campbelrs name was
on the delegation slate probably
prejudiced the president against him. It
raised presumption that Murphy, Weaver
and Fredericks had Endorsed Halls friends,
and this kind of Endorsement does not
carry much weight at Washington. If
each member of congress had recon-
mended candidates for offices in
his district and had made no in
dOrsements for appointments in other
parts of the state, recommendations would
probably have received more attention. An
Iowa Republican said tonight of Williams:
''He is the best Democrat in Iowa, where
he has lived twenty years, and he will make
agood marshal. Campbell, the delegations
candidate, is a county politician not very
extensively known, and is receiving more
glory by the prominence given him by the
four congressman than he ever dreamed of
before"
