A circular letter has been issued by
a party of section foremen at Tex
arkana, Ark, addressed ITO the
Section Foremen of the Railroad
Track Department of the Uuited
States" asking their cooperation In
organizing an association to be known
as the National Section Foremen's
Protective union. The object of the
association will be to protect them
selves from the inexperienced labor
often thrust upon them, and for whose
mistakes, sometimes causing accidents,
they are held responsible. A lodge
will be organized at that point next
Sunday.

ANOTHER SCANDAL.

The Kew Minister to Mexico said to be
Fond or Dinners and "Triinmings."
WAsHINGToN, Nov. 25.-The State De-
partment seems hardly to be out OF one
scrape with its ENJOYS to Mexico before il
is into another. The story in relation TO
the new Minister to Mexico, Mr.. Man
ming, has caused cold chills 10 ian
down the backs of tie eminenlly proper
officials at the State Department. The news
has been a terrible blow TO AIr. Btyard, yet
there is a friend Of Minister Manning
i'm the city who SAYS Mr.. Mau-
ming is fond Of dinners and trimmings" Z"
and that nc had a reputation In the South
for such things. OF course the same excuse
is given for Nj. Manning, that the ''Tariled
air'' is too much for strangers, and that tie
ozone i'm tie atmosphere IS sure 10 upset
any one paTtaking too much OF it. Tho
State Department officials to-day say that
they have no news Of any such occurrence.
Most likely, for it IS hardly probable that
Alr. Manning would make an official rc;f.rt
of his "frescOinR."

MIGRATION OF BIRDS.

Interesting Extract From the journal OF
an English Light-House Keeper.
The annual fight of birds southward
in the autumn and northward in tho
spring is one Of the oldest-obseryed
facts Of natural history. But it is only
within a few years, comparatively, that
the routes aud timetables Of these
feathered travellers have been studied
by men Of science.
Now, however, it is perfectly well
known that there is n favoritc point a {
which generation Of birds cross the
Mediterranean from Europe into Africa
and back again. The habits of birds
passing from or over the British Isles in
their annual migrations has been
studied py committee Of the British

very interesting and remarkable state
meuts.

IL not to a still fUrliief infproFyhientl
None of the sources of the postal Iey-

duclion of the rate of postage of second

effect since July I, 1886, and accordingly
the revenue will not suffer from these
