In THE spirit of retrenchment and reform
it is hoped that among Mr.. Springer's pro-
posed changes in the rules of the u. S.
House of Representatives there may be one
reducing the number of the committees of
that House. Each committee has clerk
and a messenger, the most of which posi-
tions are filled by relatives of the chairmen
and though some of them don't meet once
during the entire session, the lucrative sala-
ries of these sinecures are paid regularly.

BEEcHER's FATAL AuToGRAPH.-In the

BEECHER's FATAL AuToGRAPH.-In the
year 1883 Henry Ward Beecher made trip
to the Pacific coast, including Oregon, on
lecturng tour, and, of course, great was
the curiosity to see and hear the noted
divine. On Dir. Beecher's arrival at the
Dalles there were thousands crowding to
tue train to see, speak, or shake with the
distinguished guest, who was introduced to
Major Handley and Col. Sinnot, both natives
of the Emerald Isle" In honor of the
Beecher party they set up sumptuous
dinner, which the travellers heartily appre-
ciated. After dinner Brother Beecher 10y
request) placed his autograph at the top of
the page of the big hotel register in a fear
less hand, and great was the curiosity of
the community to see the signature of the
noted speaker, in so much that it was
carefully guarded by Messrs. Handley &
Sinnott, but to their great grief one morn
ing the name OF Brother Beecher had disap
peared from the hotel register. They i'm
mediately offered reward of $50 for the
recovery of his signature, but in vain no
one responded. Stopping at this hotel at
the time was barber by the name Of Stein
metz, man of good and sober habits, who
was noticed to be on q big spree (after the
reward was oGtred), and all his friends
could say or do to restrain him were in vain.
One night soon after the porter heard q
heavy fall above, and flew UP to Steinmetz's
room, and, Mortified, saw thepoor man dead
upon the floor. An inquest was called, and
10 the lost signature of Brother Beecher
was found in his pocket. The jury brought
in verdict: "Died from overdrinking which
was caused by remorse on account of steal
ing Beecher's signature"

BODY PETRIFIED.-A well authenticated
case OF petrifcation is reported from the
town of Topsfeld, Mass. The sexton has
been engaged removing bodies from the Old
part of the cemetery to the new. Among
others, the body of Israel Galloup was ex-
humed 10 the ordinary way, but it was
found impossible to raise the body of his
wife, who was buried by his side, and
plank was put down as an inclined plane
and the cofin was in this way drawn to the
surface. A hasty examination showed that
the body, which had been buried thirty
years, had become petrfed, the eyes and
portion of the nose only showing signs OF
decay, the remainder, even to the folds OF
her shroud, being changed to stone.

A WESTERN MARRIAGE.-A number OIL
girls were recently brought over the Short
Line from Omaha to be walters in the eat
ing house at Huntington. A day or two
since susceptible young fellow, ''just of
bunch grass asked one of them to marry
him. They had only known each other
three days, but she was equal to the emery
ency, and she accepted him '.just too quick"
He accompanied her to a justice of the
peace, who, in making out the necessary
documents, asked the young man the name
of his intended. "You will have to ask
some one who is better acquainted with her
than am" said he, "for | don't know"
The marriage took place, and such is life in

IT is hoped that the arrest of a deputy
United States Marshal and an ex. United
States Commissioner in Salt Lake City on
the charge of lewd and lascivious conduct
may teach the other United States officers
in Utah that the Edmunds law is not only
applicable to cases in which the parties
thereto are man and wife BY the law of the
church to which they belong, but also to
men and women between whom no such
relation exists.

A True Bill.

General Fit=hugh Lee:
Dear Sir: nave the honor TO direct your
attention TO the enclosed true bill against
YOU, which occurred in this way: Ga Fri
day night when this town-this "home of
murderers and assassins"-was literally
painted red in your honor, my bar room
was crowded with friends of yours. Amid
the excitement four strangers entered and
ordered "Jrinks," which | had the pleasure
of serving. The leader of the party had
come to town in tobacco wagon; drawn 0y
solitary steer, and being too late to get
any money at PAGES warehouse, ne asked
Gould minister to . mind diseased,
Pluck from the memory a rooted SORROW,
Rae out the written troubles of the brain,
And with somo sncet oblivious antidote
Cleanse his foul bosom of the perilous stuff
That weighed upon his heart"
And knowing from my own experience
there's naught so much the spirits charm
as rum and true religion" let him have
the antidote, after which he left abruptly,
saying, "charge it up to FitZhugh Lee"
which I did accordingly.
My terms, General, are strictly 'casb,' .
but, making virtue of necessity, you can
have as long time as you want. Pax vobis-
cum. A word 10 the Wise is sufficient, and
old Virginia has spoken it loud.
Yours respectfully.

ALEXANDRIA, VA.
SATURDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER %.

TIE PRESIDENT has, it seems, been ao-
v;sed bv what are called 'some prominent
democratic friends" to abandon his proper
intention of attending the funeral OF 'ne
Vice. President, for the reason that the OPP
nortunity for his assassination that Wouio
be afforded by trip to Indianapolis m'gnt
be ayailed of by second Guiteau. For Inc
sake, not only of the. President, but OF the
country, it is hoped the advice OF 'nose
"orominent democratic friends may not
be adopted. II 1T has come to pass that an
American President can not go wherever ne
NAV choose in his own country without the
fear of assassination, then the form OF gov,
o-,mont sbould be changed. at once, anu
a.. man nj the head oft be guarded night
and day by an armed force. If freemen can
not be trusted with the lives of their Chief
MAGISTRATES for the short period of four
wears. then slaves should be made to pro-
tect those of their masters during life long
reigns. A great fault with modern Ameri-
can Presidents is that they keep themselves
too much aloof from the people. In the
Younger and better days of the republic the
faces of the Presidents were so familiar on
the side walks of Pennsylvania avenue that
they attracted no special attention. The Pres
idents then had no more fear of being assas'
sinated than any of the people they met IN
their walks. 1t has only been since the
fear of Presidential assassination arose that
there has been any danger Of them. Pro.
badly the dissi patton of that fear would dis
pei that danger.
