In . State of Siege.

The postmaster at Quincy, a
small settlement in Newton coun-
ty, is in "a state of siege. A ca
sette reporter learned yesterday
that he had been driven away
from Quincy by number of his
neighbors. His name is J. j.
Waters, and he has been postmas-
ter at Quincy for over a year. The
neighborhood is thinly settled.
1t is country not Astounding in
rich agricultural possibilities, and
is located between the Boston and
Cave Greek Mountains. Tho Ee)-
pie are rough and the facili-
ties for education are limited.
The postmaster Is man above
the average intelligence, and the
people conceived a dislike o him.
They complained that he was gruff
and Insulting to those who came
for their mail. The postoffiee was
in his farm house, and meager
communication with the outside
world was kept up through him.
Finally, December q, number
of neighbors armed with rifles and
shotguns called at Waters house.
He was not at home. The armed
band sat around while and fnal-
ly left word that it would be wne
for him to leave the county.
Walters Immediately wrote to the
United States marshal at Fort
Smith asking him for protection.
News travels slowly from that
remote locality, but at last ac-
counts Waters and his wife had
gone to Jasper, Newton county,
and his son-in-lsw; son and one
or two others were holding his
farmhouse as a kind of fort while
every morning before breakfast
furtiye exchange of shots would
take place.
The neighbour of Walters have
q man whom they would like to
install in the place of the postmns-
ter. They claim that the present
incumbent was run out of Boone
county about four years ago, and
say that it will not be healthy for
him to attempt to remain at Quin-
cy. The names of some of the
men who went to run the postmas-
ter away are c. @. Casey, and his
three IONS, Bart, Tom and John
Casey, J. G. Mahundrow, James
Sudleth and others.-L. X. Ga

THE NOTED woRD-MoNGER.

The author of the phrase ''innocuous deS-
uetude" is said to be deaf And it is no
wonder A man who talks that way is ex-
pected to be deaf. His name is ADEE. and
he is an official in the state department,
whose principal business is writing state
papers. He is sort of an annex TO the
secretary of state, and has a strong pen
chant for inventing new phrases. In other
words. he is literary lunatic. This is not
the first time the ADEE style has cropped
out in public documents. In Mr.. BAY
ARDS recent letter to the Chinese minister,
the phrase ''consuetudnary privilege" was
inserted, and was recognized by those ia
miliar with state matter. as coming from
the literary crank of the department. Mr..
BLAINE says that during his administration
of the state department he had to keep q
close and constant watch on ADEE to keep
him from making just such breaks. Now
appointed and paid for writing his own
public documents why is it that he doesn't
do it? 1t has been usual for the president
when preparing a message to turn over GER
tain parts Of it to his cabinet officers to be
written up. Instead of doing his part of
the work Mr. BAYARD delegated it to
ADEE, who seized the opportunity to graf
ify his peculiar ambition by inserting the
noted phrase of ''innocuous desuetude."
ADEE was proud of his achievement, but it
cost the president many pang of mortii-
cation, for all the English speaking world
has been laughing over it ever since.

complaint comes from the South that the
once frequent knocking birds have become
of great rarity, and other varieties
are fast disappearing. This is not as it
should be. There cannot be too many
song birds. and the wholesale destruction
of them which is going on should be put an
end TO by legal means, if no other method
is available. To a gentle and refined
woman onamentation obtained in such a
way should be repugnant; all her finer
feelings should revolt at the useless sacri-
fee, but as yet this sentiment has been APP
pealed to in vain. 1t is urged in defense
OF the custom that the wearer of the bon
net is simply at the mercy of the mlllinerS.
The plea is absurd. If the women should re-
fuse TO purchase headgear embelliShed with
feathers and stuffed birds. their demand for
something which would fulfill the law of
beauty without coming within the bounds
of cruelty would soon be recognized The
movement which mas been begun in various
Eastern cities to protect the birds from this
reckless slaughter deserves announcement.
1t will surely fail unless the women lend it
their support

EASTER.

Easter is the queen festival of Christen-
dom. 1t commentaries the Resurrection,
which is the foundation stone of the Chris
tan faith, and has been observed from the
very beginning of the Christian church and
is celebrated in every part of the Christian
world. There was long controversy In
the early church in regard to the day of the
week and the day of the month on which
Easter should be celebrated. One party
held that as CHRIST was the true Paschal
Lamb and that He had been slain
on the very day when the Jews,
in celebration of their Passover,
inundated the figurative lamb. the
Eastern festivity should be held on the day
to correspond with the Jewish pasche. The
great majority of the Christian churches,
however, attached more Importance to
Christ's resurrection. Easter should be Gel
ebrated on the first day of the week-the
day that Christ arose-and that it
should be the Sunday which fol-
lowed the day on which Christ suffered.
1t was finally settled for the whole church
by adopting the rule which makes Easter
to be always the first Sunday after the full
moon which happens upon or next after
March 81; and if full moon happen on a
Sunday, Easter day is the Sunday after.
Whoever may doubt that the resurrection
was real occurrence, none can deny the
benefits which have flowed from belief in
it. From that first Easter morning, when an
anxious group of faithful disciples looked
in upon a vacant tomb in the Judean gar
den to see whether indeed the LORD had
arisen. on down through the more than
eighteen and a half centuries which
have interviewed, there has been no impor-
tant movement of progress in the worlds
history that does not owe its origin and its
success TO the influence of Christian civili-
cation. That part of human history not
embraced within the operations of Chris
tan work for the last 1900 years has been
barren of results Governments have raised
their proud heads only to be torn and scat
tered by the storms of revolution. The
wrecks and remnants of empires and king
doms incumber the pages of the
history of the last 1,SOO years.
Schools of morality and philosophy have
come and gone, the learned wranglers
of scientific schools have passed away and
their names are forgotten, yet from hand
full of sorrowing disciples on that first Easter
morning the Christian church has grown
and widened and expanded until this
Easter morning its membership is num-
bered by the millions, and its bells are
ringing in every civilized land in the
world.

- MAD BISHOP.

The colored Methodist conference re-
Gently In session in Richmond. Va, passed
resolutions deploring the labor trouble and
expressing the hope that the Lord would
bring good out of evil. When the resolu-
ton was under discussion, the c0lored
bishop who presided over the conference
took the floor and said he thought the con-
ference could more probably spend its time
passing resolutions denouncing the Repub-
lican supreme court of the United States
and their abominable decision disrobing
the colored race of all civil rights. He de-
nounced the court as being constituted of
second rate lawyers who did not under
stand the first principles of constitu-
tional law. He thought that the negro
race ought to be entitled to the same civil
ties that Cinnamon enjoy. While good
many people viii agree with Bishop
TURNER that supreme court which could
furnish several members who assented to
the outrageous decisions of the electoral
commission of 1876, is not body to excite
the admiration OF a world. still there seems
TO be little bit more vinegar I'm the reve-
rend gentleman's remarks than Is necessary.

their civil rights, but it isn't necessary

THE FREE AMERICAN MAN.

Mr.. BEECHER says that the doctrines Of
the Democratic party have been helpful
power in building up the free American
man. Any impartial observer of American
history must come to the same conclusions
arrived at by Mr.. BEECHER. Beginning
withthe days of JEFFERSON and coming
on down TO the present time, the Demo-
cratic party has been made up of the men
who work and consequently has been the
defender of individuality In politics and
social life. The enemies of Democracy
have sneered at it as party made up
of the under-classes. They point the
finger of scorn at it and speak of it as the
party of the rabble and all that sort of
thing. Notwithstanding the scorns and
jeers to which it has been subjected the
Democratic party has moved right along in
its fight for the development of individual
manhood. 1t has been the great
protector of the citizens rights. Under the
influence of its doctrines our national life
expanded into power and freedom. 1t was
not until the displacement of the Demo-
cratic party from power that monopolies
succeeded in getting grasp on the govern
ment and a gllded aristocracy arose
to lord it over the mass of the
people. Now that the control of the gen.
eraI government has passed into Democratic
hands, the people are organizing to recover
the rights wrested from them by Repub-
lican rule. These same under classes, so
called, the men who work, the toll.
ers in the shop and on the farm,
are coming together in defense of their
manhood and to assert their proud
