interesting, and the publication of which may
be a beacon to guide some misiudged unfortu-

For year or SO the proprietors have been
aware that money was disappearing in small
quantities, which was a source OF great annoy
ance. Finally, trusted employe was dis
covered in the act of abstracting a small
amount of his employers funds, which had
been taken in through the Office. He was at
once accused of having secured considerable
amount, aggregating in the neighborhood of
several hundred dollars aud ultimately appre-
hended for the theft. He confessed to petit
larceny which was all that could be proved
against him, and as stoutly maintained his limo

no remedy, and the proprietors were puzzled TO
account for the shortage Finally the cash
drawer WAS removed from its position and
large-sized hole discovered, through which rats
or mice had gained an entrance into the money

a new nest had been constructed underneath
the counter top, which was built of papers
taken from the drawer. In addition to this the
nest was lined with three So bills and one $40

a Celebration Suggested.

Direct railroad communication between
this city and Kansas City was opened few
days ago. The Importance of this railroad
connection between the thriving, growing
city, which commands the trade of so large
a part Of the great west, and the chief sea
port city of the South Atlantic coast, is
appreciated, of course, by those who are
directly Interested; but it is not thoroughly
understood by the great majority of those
who will be indirectly benefited by this
great rail route over which, in the near
future, the products of the wealth pro1uc-
ing Drairies will reach the seaboard.
Would not celebration OF the Opening
of this route be good thing to have in
this city! Why not have such a celebra-
ton before the beginning of the new year.
Macon has just mad Il fair, Augusta and
Columbus are now having exposltions, and
why should not Savannah Lave something
to call atteation to her growing commercial
Importance!
And what would be better than such
CELEBRATION as above indicated: Let US
bring tie business men of Birmingham and
Kansas City here, and show them our adj
vaHtages for handling the products Of thu
territory tributary to them. They won
Ike to come, and their coming would be
productive of suggestions of ways in which
| they could help us and we could help them.
Already the Kansas City grain mer-
chants have been making inquiries about
our facilities for handling wheat for export.
Birmingham's iron comes here on its way
to market. Indeed, the day Is not distant
when our wharves will be crowded with
freights from the iron mines of Alabama
and tie wheat fields of Kansas.
1t is time that the business men of Biz
minghan, BeSsemcr, KaasaS City and Sa-
vannah were getting acquainted, aud there
is no better way to make them acquainted
than a celebration of the opening of roads
which connects their cities WHAT do the co.
ton exchange, the board of trade, and our
business men gene ally, say. Shall We have

A Hairless Mare.
From the San Francisco eau


A very interesting equine curiosity, in the
shape Of q horse absolutely without hair. ar.
rived on the Alameda from Australia on Satur.
day last. IL was exhibited 10 a few connois.
seurs in horseflesh yesterday by the owner, X.
A. Cunningham. The horse or rather the mare,
for 1t belongs to the latter gender, is a pro-
nounced phenomenon. Her skin is black, and
as smooth and fine as that Of a human being.
She stands a little over fifteen hands high, and
is about seven years old. IL would be difficult
TO find a handsomer or more shapey animal.
She looks well bred, and is strongly developed.
In action the movement of every muscle is
plainly discernible by reason of the anilnal's
utter nakednesS. We're IL not for her abnormal
appearance, the mare would make a most ex-
cellent carriage horse. Anything more peculiar
than the appearance of the beast. with her
smooth. shiny skin, black as ebony. attempting
70 whisk from her back with hairless, stumpy
tail the flies clustering there IL is impossible 20
conceive. The softness and smoothness of
every part OF her anatomy. even where the
name ought to be found. precludes the idea
that the hair has been gotten rid of artihcially,
as by shaving. Mr.. Cunningham purchased the
mare In Echuca, Victoria, from q farmer, who
utilized her as buggy horse.

Mr. Blsine'S Position.

The impression is gaining ground that the
relations between Gen. Harrison and Mr.
/ Blaine. however pleasant they may be now,
are not likely to remain so very long. The
statement has been made quite frequently
lately that Mr. Blaine wants to be Secretary
Of State. 1t has even been asserted in more
. than one Of the newspapers friendly to Mr..
Blaine that he has been offered that position.
4 dispatch from Augusta (Me.) declares
that Mr.. Blaine expects to have it, and that
his friends Insist that he shall
VIII lie e. iti Nobody of course knows,
exca-t t4en. Harrison, and it may be that
even be has not reachel any decision in the
matter. One Of the closest friends Of Gen.
Harrison Is the attorney general OF Indiana,
A1r. Michener. He stated on Saturday that
p one had Vet been considered in connec-
tlau " ia :be cabinet.
Bat WIN does Mr. Blaine want to be Sec
Rotary Of Statei For the reas N, dou tiess,
that in that position be would be tie chief
adviser Of the administration, and woull
undertake 10 dictate the appointments and
policy q Gen Harrison'S administration.
f5e would enieavor TO overshadow him just
& be did during the campaign. The admin
lStrailon would be spoken Of rs Blaine's,
and be would be the one to whom the lead
e-s would apply for suggestions and favors.
Is Gen Harrison the man TO submit TO
such a condition Of affairs? Those who
know him well say no. He has plenty Of
confidence in himself and will be the head
OF his administration. If Mr.. Blaine were
made Secretary Of State, therefore, there
would soon be n rupture in their relations.
Knowing Mr.. Blaine as he does, will Gen.
Harrison likely make the mistake of invit-
ing him into his cabinets If he is the level
headed man he is believed to be, he will not.
He owes MIR. Blaire nothing. Mr.. Blaine
did not assist in getting him the nomina
tiCn. and it is seriously questioned whether
Mr. Blaine did him any good in the cam
paign. He is free, therefore, to deal with
Mr.. Blaine as his Judgment dictates, and the
chances are that he will offer him the En-
ghsh mission or some other place in which he
will not have a chance to attempt 10 dictate
the policy of the administration, bat the
probability that he viii invite him into his
cabinet is regarded as quite remote.
But if Mr. Blaine does not got what h g
wants, viii he continue to give his earnest
support to Gen. Harrison's Administrations
1t is quite safe to say that he will not He
will attempt probably to create a feeling OF
