A VETERAN.

The Oldest Department Clerk in Continu-
Gus Service in the National Capitol
James III. Marr, Who Was a Clerk Six
Years Before President Cleveland Was
Bor
WASHINGTON, June Probably Mr..
James H. MARI, the chief clerk of First
Assistant Postmaster General Stevenson,
has been longer engaged than any other
living employe in the department service
of the Governme Mr.. Mari is eighty
years of age, and entered the service in
1881, under the famous William I. Barry,
of Kentucky, President Jackson's first
Postmaster General. In that year Mr..
Marr came to Washington from Mary
land, his native State, and accepted an
humble clerkship in the department.
He has, meantime, been repeatedly pro-
NOTED, and has for years past held, as
now, the position of chief clerk for the
First Assistant PostmaSterGeneral.
On the first instant his office was the
scene of numerous hearty congratula-
tions on the arrival of the ffty-ifth ami
versary of his entrance upon tie duties
of his first clerical position in the de-
partment. Postmaster-G General Villas,
First Assistant General Stevenson and
their subordinates gave the venerable
man hearty handshakes, and warm verbal
expressions of esteem. The old man is
Justly proud of the faithful record he has
made running through more than half
century. He has served, in that period,
under twenty seven Postmasters-General,
and eleven Presidential administrations,
the beginning Of his official career ante
dating by six years, the birth OF the
present President Of the United States.
His record is stainless one, and reflects
honor upon his character and name. He
possesses now, as ever before, the uni
yersai respect of his associates.

OUT AT LAST.

The Reason Some of the Originally Invited
Guests Did Not Attend the White House
Wedding-The Invitations Were Recalled.
NEW YORK, June 8.--A Buffalo special
to the Sun says: The reason why nobody
except Mr.. Wilson Bissel went from here
to attend the Presidential nuptials is out
at last. Before the engagement was
known Miss Ida Gregg received an invita-
ton to attend the wedding, as did several
other society acquantances OF Miss Fol-
som, but most of the invitations came
from her mother. Soon after the news
papers began printing the facts as. they
became known, decided change was
noted in the letters from Miss Folsom,
and it was said that the 'eorre-
spondence had almost ceased. Miss
Virginia Kingsford, of Oswego, who was
Miss Folsom's roommate at Wells Col
Iege for three years, and Miss Grace
Stores, of Scranton, another college
chum of the Presidents wife, were also
invited. They arranged to go from here
to w Washington together and had even en-
gagged sleepiDg-car for the trip; when
polite note came from Mrs. Folsom say
ing that none OF the guests originally
invited would be expected at the
wedding, which, on account OF
the death Of the BRIDES grand
father, would be as private as possi-
BILE. The note said that no other
Buffalo I, acquaiDtances of the bride
were expected, but that as soon as
she got comfortably settled in her new
home she would be happy to receive
visit from Miss Gregg. The ladies who
had received invitations had, in most
cases, procured new dresses, and told
their friends all about their intention to
be present. The polite reconsideration
Of the invitation, therefore, has been
very mortifying to Mrs. Cleveland's
friends. Some of the blame has been
placed on the President, but sensible
folks do not attribute the responsibility
to him, for he had insisted on having as
little display as possible.

BOUND TO DIE.

A Missouri Woman Who Took the Strych-
nine Route Because Her Husband Did
Not Properly Provide for Her.
PERRYvILLE, Mo-, June Mrs. Louisa
Taylor, young married woman, COM
mitted suicide by swallowing strychnine
and laudanum at the house of her father
in Charlestown. She had been visiting
a sister at Phenixyille, and at North
east purchased the poison. She stated
that she intended to kill herself, as her
husband did not provide for her and her
life was hell on earth. After swallow
ing the strychnine she told her brother
what she had done, and that she had also
given her fve-year-old daughter large
portion of the poison. The dose to the
child proved an emetic, and thus saved its
life. A physician was sent for, but Mrs.
TAYLOR refused to take an antidote, de-
claring that she wished to die, and taking
from her pocket vial, swallowed half an
ounce of laudanum. She died this morn
ing. Mrs, Taylor was twenty-five years
old.

A CHICAGO HOLOCAUST.

Eight Persons Burned or smothered to
Death in a Chicago Tenement-House Fire
Strong Suspicious of Notwithstanding
Victims. t#A
CHICAGO, June 18th On one of the
marble slabs at the morgue this morning
were the charred remains of two whole
families, save one husband who was out
of the city, and child too young to know
the perils it had narrowly escaped. The
father of another family was also among
the dead. In all eight persons were
roasted or smothered in their beds. They
were the victims of a fire that broke out
at 73l and 733 South Canal Street early
this morning.
At four O'Clock this morning flames
were discovered bursting upward from
the cellar OF frame building at 733 Canal
street. The watchman in brewery first
saw the blaze. He ran to the house to
arouse the occupants and turn in an
alarm. Meanwhile the flames shot up
through the ground floor with the rapid
ity of lightning. In minute more the
next floor was ablaze, and little later
the wooden walls of the basement gave
way and the fire was communicated to
veloped.
Both houses were filed with sitting
smoke and beyond help from the fire
department before any of the inmates
were aroused.
John Raleigh jr., and the family living
on the lower floor of 1873, were first to
awaken. Hastily grasping such few gar
ments as tn, could find in the stirling
cmOka Mr. apd MrS PalaiUh fhrau oman
the front windows and escaped, but not
without terrible scorching Mrs.
Ralegh's night dress caught fire, but she
extinguished the blaze, and Joined her
husband in her effort to save the lives of
their children. This they succeeded in
doing.
The second floor of the building was
occupied by Michael Murphy and
family, and Mrs. Mary Durkin and family
Mrs. Durkin's husband, who is employed
in the Joliet Steel Works, was absent.
The upper floor of 731 was occupied by
VIM. Hahn, Jr., and his family. His
father, an aged man, lived with them.
The Hahns all escaped except the old
man, who was last seen at an upper win
dow appealing for help, but it was too
late, and he perished.
On the lower floor lived John Mcclure,
grocer, and family. They all escaped.
1t is alleged that the fire was the work
of an incendiary. The brewer, who
made the discovery, says that he saw
strange man running away from the
burning buildings. 1t was the third
time the property had been set
atire. Another evidence which Mr..
Raleigh cites as pointing to
incendiarism, is the fact that he locked his
basement door upon retiring last night,
and upon discovery of the fire 1t was
found to have been broken open.
Following are the names of the VIC
tins:
Mrs. Mary Durkin, aged thirty.
Patsey Flavin, four years.
Agnes Durkin, aged ten months.
Michael Murphy, thirty-fve years.
Mrs. Michael Murphy, thirty-nine
years.
Annie Murphy, aged ten years.
Nellie Murphy, aged eight years.
William Hahn, aged sixty-three years.
