Men often gain more fame from events

BROOKLYN's CHANGES.

Arthur Irwin Likely TO Be En-
gaged-New York May Sign
keefe.
New YORK, May Sit is highly prob
able that there will be change in the
Brooklyn B. b. club. Shortstop Smith
is likely to be released to the Louisville
club and Arthur Irwin OF the Phila-
delphia nine will be secured to captain
and play short for Brook
Ign. 1t has been openly as
serted for the last day OF two
that the members of the New York
club were in anything but a contented
frame of mind, it now seems probable
that the club will sign Keefe in few
days. The management recognizes
that it is carrying some useless timber,
and some releases may follow in day
or two. Titcomb, the pitcher, has been
sent home from Boston. and it was said
tonight that he would be re-
leased Immediately. Catcher Murphy
will be retained. Manager Mutrie tele-
graphed for George, and that young
pitcher left for Boston tonight. Presi-
dent John B. Day laughs at the idea of
Ward being released to the Philadelphia
club, and says there is no such deal.

Several Minnesotians Getting
Good Offices.

WASHINGTON, May s. Secretary
Window is not doing as well by Mime
sofa as some of the self-seekers would
wish, but he is doing fairly we'll. Tim
Byrnes has S2,7OO Office; Fred Brack-
EFT has $1,000 office; Williams, !of Man.
kato, has $4,000, and there are more to
follow. There is no truth in the state
ment that Window has any special IA
vorites among the senators and con-
gressmen from Minnesota. On the con-
trary, he desires to most emphatically
deny such suggestions. He has faith
fully and honestly dealt with all of
them. Mark Ii. Dunnell went to him
the last day he was here and got hand
fuf of official papers considered and
some appointments made. The same is
true of Davis, Washburn, Lind and
Comstock. Capt. Snider was likewise
successful in certain matters of interest
to the Twin Cities, all of which have
not yet reached fruition. Minnesota
Republicanism is harmonious at the

PALMER,s PLUM.

Chicago is as happy as clam in high
tide, because she has been recognized
by the administration as an American
city. FRANK PALMER has been ap-
pointed to an Office with lots of juice in
it, and there is now some show for the
Chicago boys to get suck at the fed
eral teat. 1t is singular, however, that
before Mr.. PALMER got the Office of
public printer he had to be steered
into the presence of the president by
FRANK HATToN, who introduced him
as an old Iowa acquaintance. There was
display Of tact in tits that speaks
well for Mr.. PALMER's political sagac-
ity.- If it had been abruptly announced
to the president that PALMER was from
Illinois, that would have settled his
hash. The knowledge Of PALMER's
residence had to come to the president
in broken doses, and then he had to be
satisfied that neither of the Illinois
senators Endorsed his application.

IT IS reported from Alaska that the
natives there will not steal, but are phe-

that until of late there has been moth

there. No offehse should be taken in

THE NEW COMMISSIONERS
Let credit be awarded where it is due.
President HARRISON has done so much
better in his selection of civil service
commissioners than was expected of
him that the country will be prompt to
express its appreciation of the unlocked
for favor. The reappolntment of ex-
Gov. THOMPSON was graceful tribute
to Mr.. CLEvEIAND'S wisdom, and at
the same time rebuke to the partisan
spirit manifested by the senate when it
refused to confirm his nomination. Mr..
RoosEvELT's selection is likewise a
happy one; for while he is probably not
as great man in popular estimation as
he is in his own, still he is known to be
genuine civil service refOrmer. and
has the courage to assert his cOnvic-
tons. His appointment is additional
evidence that the president is inclined
to cut loose from Mr.. BLAINE's apron
strings, for TEDDY ROOSEVELT is one
of those mugwump fellows who refused
to support BLAINE in 1884.

of them who does not every day try to
palm off upon customers vegetables so

chief imputation is that the grocers ex-
pose the fresh vegetables to the sun and
wind, keeping them exposed all day,
and in consequence they become not
only insipid, but positively dangerous to
health. 1t is not presumed that the Des
Moines grocers are peculiar in this mat
ter. In Chicago, for instance, there is
probably room for the same line of re-
mark.

thirty-eight stanzas, bewailing his ILL
fortune in love. His case stands out by
itself in modern history. He left the
United States senate, going down from
high round on the ladder of civic fame
for love, unrequited love at that. Where
is there another case where a man has
abandoned good Office for love? What
relief it would be to the president if
there would be an epidemic of that sort
