Baron Pepper. an Austrian noble man. lived
up TO his name By popping the question year
or more ago to a beautiful young lady in
Vienna. The peculiarly of the case was that
ne was an Israelite and she Catholic. The
pope was asked to give the lovers permission to
marry, and after thinking the matter over he
has consented. 1t is said that this is the first
instance of the kind in two hundred years

The number of cases of theft, burglary and
pocketpcking which occurred here during in
auguration week, has been greatly magnitied
By some Of the newspapers of the country, and
the impression has thereby been created that
proper precautions to thwart the operations OF
the criminal classes on the OCCASION referred to
were not taken by those in authority. The facts
In the case do not warrant the view thus enter
tanned. 1t has been officially shown that the
whole number OF thefts reported during the
period named amounted to exactly Sl0659 in
money value. When it is remembered that
there were over two hundred and fifty thousand
strangers Ia the city at that time, and that
nearly all the thieves. burglars, pickppckets and
coincidence men in the country were congresated
here in anticipation of rich harvest it must
be admitted that the showing is not a bad one
for the authorities. The number of arrests made
at the time certainly showed no want of yigi-
lance on the part OF the police, a nd under all the
circumstances, the wonder rather is that there
were not mere and larger losses, and that so
many rogues We're brought to Justice
The feeling OF dissatisfaction which prevails
among democrats because of the Presidents
method OF making selections for office is as yet
confined 10 the political family circle. 1t has
not yet reached that stage of wrath which
breaks all bounds OF discretion. Democrats
whisper taeir disappointments and their fears
only to those of their OWE political faith, and
usually wind mp with the hope that the Prcsi-
dent may see the error of his ways and "defer
TO the men who elected him." II is, no doubt
very trying TO the party stalWarts ofdemocratic
states to stand by and see fat places going to
republican states, but it is plain that the Presi-
dent is not making appoin tments for political
effect. He selects those whom he deems most
At for the duties imposed and by recommending
men whose capacity and integrity are above
question, doubtless the democratic states can
secure some of the Offices

THE FEDERAL BUILDING.

Now that the editor Of the EAGLE has
gone 10 Topeka, the Beacon viii be in bad
way for copy. A short article in yesterday S
issue furnished our august ueightor last
evening with interesting matter for two
thirds of column around which he cut "a
war dance, scalping knife in hand and pro-
ceeded to cut it up into minoe meat. The
article referred TO WAS on the location Of the
Federal building and our irritable neiglbor
over the way appears to be very badly hurt
because several gentlemen" called on the
editor Of the EAGLE to find out his opinion
touching the location. The editor
of the Beacon predicts u terrible
clashing of interests and disappointment
Of individuals and combinations" and APP
pears to be terribly worried because the edi-
tor os the EAGLE didn't dchre his position
in the matter.
Don't be worried, neighbor. When he
returns he will no doubt help you out with
an idea upon which you can pounce and
write up column or SO of interesting mat
ter. OF course you would not pretend to
wear the ragged edge off your capacious
brain in a reply to anything penned by such
ordinary individuals as the local pencil
pushers OF the bird. However, we will sag
gest few subjects for your consideration
until the colonel returns.
Short articles on ''noE-partisan city adj
ministration, "hog culture" ~the price of
Dutch cheese, ''the practical workings of a
bonnet foundry" and the utility Of Mexi-
can dogs" would be quite Interesting at this
time. You might also give u short squib
about how to edit free lunch.

HOW TENNESSEE WAS SETTLED.

There are are few men who have travelled
in greater number of states stan J. l..
Hodge of this city. No matter what state
one says he is from, the Judge can name the
principal town in the county where he says
he is from; can talk familiarity of the Local
ton, and almost convince stranger he has
roe. an old neighbor.
Day before yesterday W.. Haynes of
the firm of Langenberg Bros. & Co, of ST.
Louis, sat in the parlor of the fremont, read
ing the Sunday morning EAGLE. Mr.Haynes
is modest sort of young man in whose face
the stranger reads, "You can trust me-"
Judge Hodge came into the hotel on the oc-
casion referred to and being fayorably i'm
pressed with the young mnn.asked him what
state he was native of. Mr.. Haynes said he
was born in North Carolina. OF course the
judge was acquainted in that state and in
the comfy where the young man was born.
The conversation that this fact ELECTED be-
came quite interesting TO a number of those
present. The two men talked of the leading
men of the state, of tar and tobacco, and so
on. The Judge told how his own father left
North Carolina and settled in Tennessee in
the year 1900 Mr.. Haynes asked him il he
knew how the first settlers happened TO go
