RIGHTS or CADETS.

All the Annapolis Graduates of 1882 Pro-
vided with Places.
Special to the Indianapolis journal.
WASHINGTON, July Secretary Whitney has
just issued an order which disposes Of the last
one of the cadet engineers who we're graduated
from the Naval Academy in 1882, and who were
honorably discharged with one years pay by
Secretary Chandler because no necessity for
their service existed. One of the young men so
discharged brought action in the Court Of Claims
to recover the salary which he alleged was due
him on the ground that the Secretary of the
Navy had no right to dispense with his services.
The court sustained the cadets claim. and the
government appealed to the Supreme
Court That body sustained the judg
ment of the court below and held
that all of the cadet engineers thus dismissed
were entitled to restoration to the navy. In con-
sequsnce of this decision all but one were en-
rolled IN the engineer corps, the one exception
being young man named Higgins from Mary
land, who had accepted an appointment in the
revenue marine service. It was undecided
whether this voluntary action on his part de-
prived him of his right to re-enter the navy, and
his case has been before the Secretary Of the
Navy and the Attorney general for some months.
The latter official recently rendered an opinion
in favor of Higgins, and the Secretary Of the
Navy has just issued an order directing him to
report for duty at the department as naval en-
gipeer.

Martin Foran, of Ohio, has made the same
statement. He says he had worked up prac-
tice worth 80 600 year, and there is nothing in
the toll and vexaton of congressional life to
compensate him for the sacrifice of So 5000 year

"STORMY" JORDAN.
A Specimen Iowa Saioon-Keeper-One Sin
with Conscience.


Otumwa tIa.) Letter.
Perhaps no saloon keeper in the State is more
widely known than STORMY" Jordan and proba
bly, none of them have sought less to disguise
their hatred for the Hawkeye prohibition law
or violated it more openly. But STORMY
has reached the end of his rope at
last, and is now in the Wapello county
Jail, sentenced to undergo Imprisonment
for 300 days for putting that into his neighbors'
mouths which, it has been stated. takes away
their brains. But Jordan, although law-yio-
lator and generally tough character, with yards
upon yards of profanity ready to unroll on the
slightest proyocation, and with such a violent
temper that his Christian name of Kinsley has
been corrupted into Stormy, has, nevertheless
some traits which, to q certain extent. redeemed
his shortcomings. Excessive frankness was one
of them.
SO highly developed was this faculty that soon
after opening his saloon, some fifteen years or
more ago, in basement beneath the Union
Depot here, he created sensation by placing a
sign over the stairway leading to his bar which
was startling novelty. Surrounded with grin
ming devils, twisting serpents and grinning skel-
etons and ending in huge hand pointing down
ward, were the following words:
