The time is fast drawing near when the
convention of the G.. A. r. delegates Of
the department Of Colorado will be held
at Denver, and as it approaches candi-
dates for commander of the department
are beginning to m~aterialze, The latest
development IN this direction and one
which is perhaps a trife cheeky. is a
circular sent out by the G.. A r. post at
Pueblo, Colo, placing in nomination for
that position a Grand Army man and
member Of that post, named D. L. Hold
en-, and asking other posts throughout
the department To support him, etc One
of these circulars was received by the adiu
tant of the John f.. Reynolds post yester-
day. Judge j. W. Fisher is the senior
vice commander Of the department, and
if he is not made the full commander
when the convention meets, there is but
little doubt that he will at least he re

Piles are frequently preceded BY a sense
of want Of weight in the back, loins and
lower part OF the abdomen, causing the
patient to suppose he has some affection
of the kidneys or nelghboring organs. AT
times, symptoms ofindigestion are present
hatulency, uncasiness of the stomach, etc.
A moisture like p~erspiation, producing a
very disagrceable itching, after getting
warm. is a common attendant. Blind,
bleeding and itching piles yield at once to
the application Of DR.. Bosanko's Pile
Remedy, which acts directly on the parts
effected, absorbing the tumors, a~llaying
the intense itching, and effecting a per-
manent cure. Price so cents. Address

A correspondence Of the Temps has been
at the pains to ascertain that there are in
Paris ut the present time no fewer than
twenty-three establishments which en-
ploy a more or less considerable staff of
clerks in writing out addresses for circu-
lars and advertisements to b. sent through
the post. Although these establishments
are, as a matter OF course, buster than
usual at election time-having had TO
write out the addresses Of nearly 5000, 600
circnlars-they seem to do a pretty good
business all the year round, their ordinary
work consisting for the most part Of
addressing tradesmen's circulars. They
also keep n list Of all the persons engaged
in different branches of trade compiled
from the directory Of Paris; SO that when
anyone applies to them TO send out a
circular, say to all the tailors Of the town,
they are ready TO begin writing the adj
dresses.
Stranger still, they keep "A list of those
who stammer, who have lost their hair,
or are subject to any infirmity which adj
vertisers OF patent medicines, and so forth,
propose TO cure. The writer of the article
in The Temps says that he has the mis-
fortune TO be bald, and he is constantly
receiving circulars about some infallible
preparation or other for restoring him his
lost locks. Lists Of this kind must neces-
sarily be incomplete: but, by dint OF per
severance, their compilers are enabled TO
classify most public men and get a good
deal Of information in a haphazard way.
There are even lists of persons with false
teeth and with red hair.-Pan Mall Ga

The Western Union Telegraph office
has once more resumed its wonted regu-
larity. Manager Jones and his able corps
have a somewhat elated look consequent
upon the handsome quarters which they
now occupy. The office, to which we
have previously referred, is a well lighted,
roomy apartment Immediately east of the
Post bank, heated by steam and lighted
by electricity, containing seven operating
tables, A handsome counter with glass
top extension separates the operators from
the public. The business Office is a coy
compartment Immediately to the right of
the entrance, where the cordial greeting
Of the manager can always be heard as he
welcomes his patrons in n anu as unique
as it is hearty. The wires enter the room
through the cap Of the main door, thence
by an ingeniously constructed 'wirebosrd'
to the switch board, which is handsome
affair of the sprngjack pattern, to the
basement below, coming through the
floor beneath the several tables to the in
str lments, thus cffectually hiding them.
Taken altogether, the office is a credit to
the city, and its appearance is due much
to the asst luous manner in which Mana
ger Jones has snperintended the work.
Praise should also be given to Mr.. f. II
Ballard, the efficient foreman under whose
direction the difficult task Of moving the
Office has been so satisfactorily accom-
plished. The cold weather, which oc-
CURED in the midst of his work, caused
the wires to break east and west, and the
president message coming as it did when
the instruments and operators were di-
yided between the old and new Offices,
only complicated matters. But Ballard
was always around smiling with a self
confident look that de6ed the elements
and his excellency's $4,000 words, push
ing the work to successful completion.
The result is a slightly line Of poles with
evenly stretched wires that compare favor
ably with the usual zigzag manner in
which so many lines are constructed

the wheeler until the wheels were reversed.

three wheeled critter,' but as there was
a great tendency on the part of Charlie
to pitch forward, Hi and Mr.. Noor-

but the son Of a gun from Bitter creek
reared up in front and Charles began to
radiate toward the ground at the other
