Prince smarck, the Chancellor's regret that ill

was succeeded by the promotion of an
efficient subordinate; the other five have
been retained The Treasurers bureau has
been protected absolutely from parti-
san changes, and vacancies in all
itg grades have been filled
by promotion. Assistant chiefs of
division have been recognized as under the
civil service classification and free from par
tisan changes. the appointment of an AS
sistant Chief OF the Appointment Division
being the only violation of this principle
and policy. In the four clerical grades the
civil service law has been absolutely en-
forced, and excuses for removals or eva
sions have not been sought. Below the
grades of clerks, among the watchmen, mes
sengers and laborers, there have been many
partisan changes, but many of the best
of each class have been retained. The Blu
reau of Engraving and Printing, controlling
more patronage unrestricted by the civil
service law than all TIE other bureaus COM
bined, has afforded the most conspicuous
and perfect example of the triumphs of re-
form principles Throughout the other de-
partments where Assistant Secretaries were
employed they have been superseded with
a single exception. With Chief Clerks the
rule has been very different. The veteran
Chief Clerks of the State, War and
Navy Departments, trained under the
various Republican administrations, have
been retaiued. The Chief Clerk of the De-
partment of Justice and of the Interior De-
partment both continue to serve, and the
only two who have bee bcceeded- of
the Treasury and Postoffice Departments
voluntarily resigned. The State, War and
Navy Departments have been absolutely free
from partisan changes above, below and in
the classified grades. The Department of
Justice has witnessed numerous changes in
its higher positions-the Assistant Attorneys
General, the Solicitor General and special
attorneys, ETC., but its Chief Clerk Appoint
ment Clerk, and other prominent officers re-
main and in the grades or division chiefs,
clerical clerks, and among the laborers and
messengers partiSanship has had no victims.
In the Interior and Postoffice Departments
the policy pursued has resembled that of the
Treasury IN many respects. Changes and re-
auctions have been made among bureau and
division officers, but the heads OF those De-
partments have firmly resisted pressure for

ficient aids, and from the lowest to the high

conduct in Cincinnati last fall. He was convicted
of conduct unbecoming a minister, and the &C.

years suspension. Arm strong asked the Bishop
for new trial, and pleaded in every way against
such hard sentence. The Bishop yesterday SEN
fenced him to five years suspension from the

Revolver i'm the Paris Bourse on Friday.

PARIS, March 6.-The name of the men whe
fired of his revolver in the Paris Bourse, yester-
day, is not Petrov1ch, as at first reported, bat
Gallot. He is a native of Brittany. He has been
out of work for some time. Formerly
he was a chemist assistant, and used
to be well kOwn in certain parts OF
the city as frequent speaker at public
meetings. In 1879 Gallot was convicted OF
coming and circulating counterfeit money. The
police having ascertained where the prisoner
lodged, went there to-day and examined his
apartments. In them were found quantity OF
materials for the manufacture of explosives, a
number OF finished bombs, and mass of nitro
glycerine. The authorities are now convinced
that Gallot belongs to an organization of con
spirators, and are endeavoring to find his &C.
completes. Gallot maintains a determined air
and says he is sure to have imitators.

Thurman Talks Out Loud.

Special to the Sentinel.
WASHINGTON, March 6.-The Government
lawyers in the telephone suit are quarreling
over the form of the bill to be filed. Ex-
Senator Thurman thinks the prosecution
should be made on the ground that the Bell
telephone patent was obtainedlby fraud.
Mr.. Mawery, the New York expert, holds
that the case should be made on the ground
the Pan-Electric telephone patent does not
infringe on the Bell patent. 1t is said that
the lawyers are so fixed in their opinions
that it is doubtful whether they will be able
to come to any agreement. 1t is reported
this evening that unless Judge Thurman
can dominate in the casehe win Withdraw

THE ENGRAVING.

Volume after volume has been written
about the character. of HAMLET, PRINCE OF
DENMARK. Artists have pictured 1t, poets
have rhymed il, and actors have portrayed
il upon the stage and made themselves
famous, but not, until now, has such true
and artistic picture been offered at price
within the reach of all. In the foreground
of the engraving is seen Hamlet, in "inky
cloak and suit of solemn black" He stands
close to fair and lovely Ophelia, the one he
loved, but put away from his heart that he
might let nothing interfere with his motives
of revenge. In this thrilling picture these
two form study by themselves. Opheha,
clinging to Hamlet and her eyes raised 10
his. i'm wonder and fear for the passion eX-
pressed in his face, for while his face is
turned toward her he is pointing TO the play
on the stage. and his countenance shows
that the storm of passion is raging In his
soul. On the mimic stage is the cloaked and
hooded murderer seen dropping "the cursed
hebenon" in the brothers ear with careful
and malignant steadiness Between Hamlet
and this stage sit the guilty pair-the King
and Queen. The King with every muscle
ready to help him flee from before the sight,
vet not daring to stir; the queen, with
clenched hands, seeing only Hamlet and inn
ploring him with her eyes to know what IL

EeeHsE3 90 Coyotes.

The Red Bluff sentinel says that B. 4 Bell, superintendent nf the Galla- tin ranch, has discovered an excellent plan to get rid Of coyotes. He first had five iron picket pins made. He got an old eve of little value and took her to the range where q band of mutton sheep were herded. He tied q rope about six feet long to her neck and the other end 2f the rope to a picket pin, which be drove into the ground. He then planted four steel traps at equal distances from each other in a circle, a short distance outside circle that voald be made by the sheep round. Over the ground and traps hay vas spread so that the coyotes could not see !hem.
 Ths tricl, worked like a charm, and for three mornings in succession Mir. Bell had the satisfaction Of finding a live coyote in one of the traps. He changed the location of the old eve and caught two more. Since that time he has not been troubled with them.
