In recent interview with a CORES
pendent of The New York Times Mr..
Cleveland paid the following high
tribute to Col. Villas:
"Since he (Eilas) exchanged the po-
sItlon of postmaster general for that
Of secretary Of the interior, there has
been Il marked improvement in the
dispatch of the business of the depart
ment. 1t was certainly expecting a
great deal to expect that a man who
had devoted three years to learning
how to direct the affairs of the post
Office department should be willing to
be transferred to another department,
with a new and complicated set of
duties, a prospect of very hard work
and very little fame. should not
have been surprised if he had declined
that office. But he accepted it with
cheerfulness, and has filled it with the
same aptness for the dispatch Of bust
ness that he displayed as postmaster
general, and with absolute and I'M
wayering integrity and fidelity"
Speaking of the postal service Mr.
Cleveland continued: :" Broadly con-
Sidered the postal service has been con
Quoted with its efficiency improved in
all its branches. The service has been
greatly extended. Under Postmaster
General Villas, upon whose executive
ability the president relied to simplify,
and energize the service there has been
secured greater expedition and accura-
cy in the transmission of the mails.
with steadily increasing revenue and
proportionately diminishing cost. The
star route service has been conducted
without scandal; the railway mail ser
vice has supplanted the star routes as
fast as railroads made it possible ::
nder Postmaster General Villas and
his successor, Mr.. Dickinson, who has
taken up the work in the spirit of his
predecessor, the inspectors of the ser
vice have rendered excellent service in
bringing to account many depredators
and delinquents, the amount recovered
from offenders of these classes reach
ing $6O0,nOO in four years"

The Arena graded school repeated,
with some changes, on last Friday
evening, the entertainment given on
the 22d ult. The audience was nearly
as large-all the seats being occupied
and many standing during most of the
exercises. The performances were
creditable and well received. The ad-
mission fee having been lowered to ten
cents, the receipts were much less. yet
more than we had expected. Gross re-
ceipts S11. Net receipts for both eve

ering between life and death for many
days, but has now nearly regained Ter
health. Celia died last Saturday af-
ternOon and the funeral took place
this, Monday afternoon. In this loss,
the family has the sympathy of hosts
Of friends and many hearts beat in
mOurnful unison with those of the be
reayed. But, God be praised, they
mourn not as those who have no hope.
The W. c. r. L. are talking of an
entertainment in the near future. in
the shape of an Oratorical or elocutiOn-
airy contest for a silver medal They
expect to form class of from six to
ten young people who are to select
temperance addresses of a high order,
commit them to memory and engage
in a contest for the prize above named.
This will be good temperance educa-
tiOnal work and should be engaged in
elsewhere. Let no opportunity pass,
without the using, for aiding in the
overthrow of the rum traffic and the
elevation of mankind. Eternal enmity
must exist between God and evil, and
let us work and pray that the good and
the true may prevail.
