BUFFALO, N. Y, Oct. l2.-An extern

trated during last night, by which most
of the mail arriving in the city from all
points was plundered. The street in the
vicinity of Fulton Market was found
strewn with a large quantity of letters
that had been opened and robbed. Elk
animation revealed the fact that the rob-
berry had been general in character, and
covered letters from Canada and all
parts of the United States. The post
Office authorities are Investigating the
matter.
When seen later Postmaster Sackett
said investigation showed that the rob-
berry took place in the postoffice. Banks
were notified to look out for suspicious

the banks opened a man named Shields,
a night stamping clerk in the postoffice,
presented a check at one of the banks,
and was promptly arrested. Shields does
not deny the charge of robbing the mail.

Mrs. Cleveland Annoyed.
From, the Baltimore american.

Mrs. Cleveland is annoyed, and very properly
annoyed, at the latest idiocy-and "hideousy''-
perpetrated by the photograph fiend of Wash
ngton. Apropos of the coming st. Valentines
day, some one has gotten out little sentimental
thought 1t is hard to describe the thing in cold
English, but try to imagine two big white hearts
touching points. One, the lefth heart is
a picture of Mr.. Cleveland He is gazing fondly
dreamily at the right-hand heart, and on that is
the likeness of Mrs. Cleveland. As pictured
here, she conveys the idea of frail, fragile
fairy. Any one who imagines Mrs. Cleveland to
be fra or fragile will want to revise his ideal of
the lady of the White House. She is not frail {;
she is not fragile; she weighs over 80 pounds,
and she is the ideal Of ripe womanhood, so that
the picture on the righthand heart is an alb
surdity But, to cap the climax, the gentle
photographer has thought him that 'twere a
dainty thought to stick under the nightmare of
the camera the gushing lines: Two souls with
but single thought; two hearts that beat as
one" Mrs. Cleveland has had much to suffer
from the men who have misused her picture, but
this last is the worst of them all ell-meant,
but misguided. attempt was made by her
friends when they heard of her annoyance to
buy up the pictures, but the natural conse-
quence was that under an altogether mistaken
notion as to the cause of their rapid sale. a sec
ond and larger lot of them was dumped on the
market.

DR.. McGlynn's Inconsistency.

The impression is gaining ground in New
York that DIR. McGlynn has diseased
mind. If that impression is correct it af-
fords an explanation of his rather remark
able course. A week ago last Sunday he
delivered an address in which he spoke
of the Catholic Church and
of the Pope in way that
was we'll calculated to please DIR. Fulton and
his admirers. Among other things he said
that General Master Workman Powderlv
had used the funds of the Knights Of Labor
to send an agent to Rome secretly and in
simulated that money had been used to buy
up the "underlings' of the Pope. He was bold
enough to assert that the "underlings' are
not so Every far under eithe~." or course,
Mr.. Powderly promptly and emphatically
denied the charge and called Tor proofs of
it. It is needless to say that the proofs were
not forthcoming.
On last Friday night Or. McGlynn adj
dressed letter to the boiling 1arShioncrs
of his old parish of ST. Stepifn's. In it he
urged them to lever remain faithful TO the
splendid teachings and ministrations Of the
Catholic church, concerning which need
hardly assure you my sense OF reverence
has not suffered, and will not suffer any
change In the short time of five days his
views relative to the Catholic church
seemed to have undergone a very remark
able change
If DR.. McGlynn is not suffering from a
diseased mind he must be trying to revive
interest in himself by course of conduct
4lot % - 4
The chances are that the first explanation ii
the correct one. Disappointed ambition led
him into hostility to the authority to which
he owed allegiance, and now the knowledge
that the public is no longer interested il
him, and is, in fact, about tired of him ha,
perhaps unsettled his mind. His hope oil
becoming political leader is, in all proba
bility, no longer entertained. There is nc
promise that his future will be either q
bright or a useful one.

Seeking New Territories.

/ 1t is expected that a conference Of promi
nent men from different parts Of the coun-
try who favor opening Oklahoma to
settlers will be held at Kansas City to-day
| 1t is probable that several hundred dele
gates will be present The call for this con
ference is a part of a movement which has
been going on for years to get foothold in
the Indian Territory.
1t is true that Oklahoma is not owned by
the Indians and is really not under their
control, but if it should be opened to white
settlers it would not be long before the en-
tire Territory would be in control of white
men. Oklahoma is in the heart Of the In
dian Territory. contains 5,5OO,OO0 acres,
and is not occupied except by refugees
from justice and few Struggling
Indians. It was obtained by the govern
ment from the Greeks and Seminoles about
twenty-five years ago with the intention of
colonizing the friendly Indians of the
Northwest upon it. The border settlers of
Kansas, Missouri and Arkansas, however,
protested against the plan of the govern
ment, for the reason that the Northwest
Indians would be dangerous neighbors.
Their protest was so vigorous that Congress
passed an act prohibiting the colonization
scheme. The land has remained practically
unoccupied ever since
The Indians who occupy other portions Of
the Indian Territory object TO having
Oklahoma settled by white men, because
they understand that in that event their
supremacy would soon be disputed. There
are about 5000 of these Indians, and at
least co 900 of them are classed as civilized.
They are divided into thirty five tribes, and
each tribe holds its lands in common. Only
six of them, however, have patents for the
lands they occupy. 1t is not probable, how
ever, that the government will ever raise
any question about the rights Of those who
haven't patents to the lands they claim
Besides Oklahoma there is a strip of land
further west, known as No Mans Land,
which contains about 5, 200, 900 acres. 1t has
few white inhabitants, but the number is
not large enough to attract much attention.
II has never been surveyed and title to its
lands cannot be obtained. A good many
settlers are going there, however, with the
hope that it will soon be opened to settle
ment, and that then they will be in a po-
sition to get the choicest lands.
Both Oklahoma and No Mans Land are
splendid sections of country. Their climate
is excellent and their soil is very productive.
They have plenty of running water and few
serious droughts. They are certain to be
opened to settlement soon, and when they
are there will be an unprecedented rush of
immigration to them. The result of to-
days conference at Kansas City will be
looked for with interest.

The Origin of "Hobson's Choice. u
ErnA U-,cIo- 1,ro,ko

Thomas Hobson was born in 1914; he was for
sixty years a carrier between London and Cam
bridge, conveying to and from the university
letters and packages, also passengers. In ad-
dition to his express business he had livery
stable and let horses to the university students.
He made it rule that all the horses should
have, according to their ability Ia proper dvis-
ion of work and rest. They were taken out in
regular order as they stood, beginning with the
one nearest the door. No choice was allowed
and if any man refused to take the animal
assigned him he might go without any. That
or none. Hence the phrase, "Hobsons Choice -
In the spring of 1880 the plague broke out in
England The colleges of Cambridge were
closed, and among the precautions taken by
the authorities to avoid infection Hobson was
forbidden to go to London. He died in Janu-
uary, 1881 partly it is said from anxiety and
fretting at his enforced leisure Hobson was
one of the wealthiest citizens Of Cambridge, and
did much for the benefit of the city, to which he
left several legacies. His death called forth
many poems from members of the university,
officers and students, among them two by the
poet Milton, then a student at Christ College

War Not Imminent

Bismarck's speech before the Reichstag
ought to, and doubtless will, have a very
quieting effect upon Europe. He does not
believe that there is going to be any war at
present, and he says that he does not see
any reason for any. Sometime ago he was
afraid that Germany and France would
soon become involved in a war. but the
election of a peace-loving President in
France has wholly changed the situation
He now expects the two nations will get
along tremendously. He does not believe
that Russia intends to disturb
the peace of Europe-at least not
at present. The Gar says he doesn't want
war; and Bismarck believes him. Russia is
fortifying her frontier for the purpose of
being ready for a possible condition of
affairs, not with the intention of making
trouble. Bismarck, however, proposes to
be ready for any emergency that may arise.
He believes that it is wise policy in time of
peace to prepare for war, and, therefore,
there will be no let up in the work of
strengthening the German army.
Bismarck wants Europe to psy no atten-
ton to the sensational war reports which
are constantly appearing in the European
press. There does not seem to be much re-
lance to be placed upon them, but they are
not without some authority They are
based to some extent upon information
furnished by those who are i'll position to
know what is going on, and the probabili-
ties are that they will continue until The re-
lations between the powers become a little
less strained than they are at present. Bis
marck's speech is calculated to allay alarm,
but the recent alliances between several of
the powers show that governments, as well
as the people, have not been free from ap-
prehensions of trouble

Death of a Remarkable Hen.
From the Nor,cich tConn.) Bulletin.


Among the burials in this city on Monday was
that of an old and honored Laurel Hill avenue
Plymouth Rock hen, who had hourshed ten
years under the name of "Splend," which is
short for Splendid. She was a giant bird,
weighing about fourteen pounds, and had made
a big egg record. Had her owners been specu-
lating biologists they could have sold her eggs
for ostrich eggs to collectors without much
danger of being detected. She knew when it
came regularly for her food. calling for her
meat once day. OF a brood of forty she was
the hen altogether lovely. She always wanted
a chat with her mistress daily, and when she
was not feeling well would tease to be held in
her lap and rocked by pulling her mistress
apron. She was appreciated not only for what
she did, but also for what she knew. When she
departed this life on Sunday the queen of the
brood was dead, and royal burial was accorded
her
