the letters out. When asked how
he came to be in possession Of the
kew. he said he found it. An
officer was called, and it was found on
searching him that he had keys to two
other boxes. 1t seems that the lad and
bis companion had for some time past
been taking ou It mail and opening it. Alot
Of torn-up letters were found where the
children had thrown them. They had been
doing this for some time. Mr.. Heyman
had been puzzled at the tone OF several
letters he had received, angriiy accusing
him of remissness in replying to letters
sent to Kim. The friends correspondence
was with q young lady, and his failure to
receive il caused an unpleasant suspicion

John II. Newman of Omaha has written an
open letter on the southern question to the
News & Courier. Referring to his speech
at the Virginia conference he says: "I ou

tie as to American born and foreign
born. With you it is a question with your
own people; with us it is the north
against Europe, and you have the easier
task. The south has not been
overrun by foreigners indifferent to our in.
terests. This is what I meant by 1.-THE
purest American blood was to be found in
the SOUTH" and that because OF this it
might be the south would have to march
forth in defence of our dearest institutions.

past 20 years on many public occasions.
It was Joy to me that found the young
men OF Florida, South Carolina and Vir-
ginia loyal to the union of the United
States. / suggested to the administration
to put men in Office in the south OF high
repute who will promote southern pros
perity, intelligence and religion. 1t is ru-
mored that Harrison is about to carry out
this plan regardless OF party lines in the

WASHINGTON, April 25.-Commissioner OF
Pensions Tanner to-day rendered deci-
sion by which the pension OF Henry Dem
betz will be increased from $50 to $72 per
month. The pensioner iu this case has
been receiving a pension OF $40 per
month for what is known as
amputation of both feet. This smpu.
tation is the removal of both feet
with the exception of the heel bone and in
teguments of the heel. which are brought
forward to cover the ankle joint. The case
was presented to the commissioner, and
he held that the legal distinction between
the loss of SO much of the feet as was ex-
perienced in this case and total loss of feet
was q mere technical difference, and that
the claimant was entitled to a pension oil
$72 per month. This decision will apply
to a number Of OF her cases OF like nature.
