CROOK. WILL SUCCEED TERRY.
Gen. Miles Handicapped by a Somewhat
TASTY Ambition.

Ten. Miles Handicapped by a Somewhat
TASTY Ambition.
WASHINGTON, April 3.-Now that Gen.
Terry's retirement is o certainty, a strife
is going on among the colonies of the
army for promotion to the forthcoming
vacancy in the ranks of the brigadieYs.
The ranking colonies of cavalry are
Grierson, of the Tenth, and Edward
Hatch, of the Ninth, both of whom have
been twenty-five years in command Of
regiments. Col. Smith, of the Nine
teenth infantry, leads in that arm of the
%ssryice, and Col Ayers in the artillery.
1t is not likely that a selection will be
made from any of the staff corps. There
is o general impression that Col. John r..
Brooks, of the h.sd infantry, has the in
side track ~ the race for promotion, al
though Gen. Hatch, OF, the Ninth cav
airy, and Morrow, of the Twenty-frst in
fantry, are favorably and prominently
mentioned. Gen. Terry's successor will
be Gen. George r. Crook. This is con-
coded. Gen. Crooks record, combined
with his rank as senior among the briga-
d1ers, makes his claims impregnable. In
addition. since the president has had &C.
easion to investigate Gen. Miles, per-
formances in sArizona, and the method
which he and his friends used in their
endeavors to build themselves up at the
expense of Gen. Crook, he has spoken
very strongly in Misrepresentation of the
Miles clique.

WASHINGTON, April 3-senator Vest
has introduced a bill providing for a
classification of clerks employed in first
class postoffices. With the exception of
assistant postmasters, cashiers, supertn-
tendeEts and assistant superintendent,
they are to be divided into six classes,
numbered accordingly. Their salaries are
to be as follows: To clerks of the first
class, $500; to clerks of the second class,
$500, to clerks of the third class,
81 ,000s 10 clerks of the fourth class, ST.
200, TO clerks of the fifth class, 81, 400;
to clerks of the sixth class, 81, 500. This
measure is understood to be in accord
ance with O suggestion of the new post
master general, and it is probable that its
passage will be urged by the committee
having postal affairs in charge. If passed,
the duty of making the classification Will
devolye upon the postmaster general.

a Change.

The change indicated by the above caption
is in the Sunday evening services at Pine
street NJ. Z. church. A sermon by the pas
tor instead of prayer meeting This is an
innovation of the usages of this society since
its organization. 1t has been in contempla-
ton by some of the members of the official
board for some time, but has not been acted
upon until recently. After due thought and
proper consideration it has been deemed adj
advisable to make the substitution. 1t has
been experimental upon and with the very
best of results.
Those who had the pleasure Of listening to
the Rev. S. d. Paine February 18th and 10th,
were very much pleased and speak of the ex-
ercises in the highest terms. They were de-
lighted with the expression of Gods word,
and the manner of its presentation. They
give us the credit of having one of the pr ct
test audtoriums in the city, and no seats
more comfortable or easier to sit in. The
pastor is an earnest worker with heart full
of sympathy, affection and love for the way
ward and lost. He is richly imbued With the
spirit of the Master, and his appeals to those
for whom Christ suffered and died are such
that no one can take the least objection to
them however skeptcal his mind may be or
obdurate his heart. All ministers Of the
gospel agree in saying that there IS an lnspi-
ration in large audience, and as Mr.. Paine
is to be in the city only for short time it is
hoped he may have a large gathering to-
morrow evening The invitation to the read
er to be present at these Sabbath exercises
is as free as the air he breathes.

MARINER g. COMPANY.
Opening of Their New Store In Whit
ney Block.

Last evening, for the first time, the new
wholesale and retail grocery store of Marri-
ner & Co., in Whitney block, No. 20S Federal
street, was open for public inspection. The
store was visited by large number OF peo-
pie, many Of whom will undoubtedly be pat
rons of the firm in the future The store is
90 feet deep and 80 feet wide, and has very
convenient rear entrance, which is gained
from Temple street. The basement. which
is well lighted and very spacious, being OF
the same dimensions as the store above, is
reached by elevator and board staircase.
The fixtures of the store, which is in itself
first-class one. are unusually fine and of new
and most improved design. From the out
side very attractive window display is wit
messed, while upon entering probably the
first thing that catches the eye in the long
row of beautiful tea, coffee and spice cabi-
nets. These cabinets, which are made to
keep their contents in the very best coEdi-
ton, are beautifully painted, and in the font
of each is large plate glass hevelled mir
ror. The second counter on the right in
passing down the store, contains the sugar
bins, each of which has a glass front, and is
reached from behind as well as in front of
the counter. Henry Troemner's agate bear
ing scales, which are remarkable for their
accuracy, are used on the counters, while
Fairbanks's best platform scales are used for
weighing the heavier goods on the floor. OPP
poste the sugar counter, in the centre of the
store. is the office, which is conveniently
furnished and fitted for business
Beyond the Office is the butter counter,
which is complete in itself. 1t was manu-
featured by A. B. Wood & Co., of New York,
and is known as the Empire Refrigerator
Counter. The front is of glass, through
which may be seen fine stock of choice but
ter. On top are nice platform butter scales.
The floor cans, in which are kept nuts, raj
sins, currants, ETC., are very neat and snowy
A Chandler Silver patent water motor runs a
fine new coffee mill, located near the win
dow, and all the other fixtures of the store
correspond with those of which we have
briefly spoken.
Everything in the line of choice, plain and
fancy groceries is kept in abundant stock,
the canned goods department especially con-
tanning great many different brands of all
manner of goods At the tobacco and cigar
counter all the leading brands are kept, max
ing it a happy resort for all who delight in
the weed.
A handsome team is used to deliver the
goods. The pung, which has just left the
manufacturer, was made by G. e. Whitney
of this city In short, everything connected
with the store is new and first-class in every
particular. The number Of the telephone,
which is not in the book, is SOL B. The store
is open today for business

a Large Find.

Some years ago woman came to this city
and obtained employment in the town where
she received remuneratiye wages. She Sc
cured room at the residence of one OF our
Oldest citizens on Cumberland street, and
there she remained boarder for a long time
About three years ago she stated that she
had occasion to leave the city and go else
where, and asked that a trunk she possessed
might be left in the charge of the citizen I'M
til she should send for it. The woman left
here and the trunk was placed in the attic OF
the house. Recently theisfamily had the
house cleaned and came across the trunk,
which had been forgotten. They went to a
lawyer and asked his advice in regard to it.
He advised them to get locksmith, and a
couple of disinterested parties as witnesses,
and open the trunk. They did so. Some or
binary clothing was found and bank book
on the Maine Savings Bank for $500. The
book was taken to the bank and it was found
that the book had not been balanced for
years. When that had been done there was
some 5000 to the credit of the depositor The
book will be taken good care of until the
owner puts in an appearance.
