The Postomce Site.

There has been more or less talk for some
days past of a renewal of the proposition
to ask the Government to exchange the post
Office site at Seventh and K streets for one
farther down town. AS on former occa-
sion when the subject was under discus
sion, arguments for and against the propo-
sitions are heard. The chief ground of
opposition urged to the proposed exchange
is that it would delay the erection of a
Government building-probsbly for several
years. Various reasons are urged in favor
of an exchange the strongest being that
the larger business houses would be bene-
flied by having the postoffice remain in
their midst.
The matter is one on which public opin-
ion has been and probably will continue to
be divided to the extent that individual
interests may seem to be affected.

Somebody's Starving Horses.

Signal Observer Barwick sends in the
following; "On Tuesday went to Benicia,
and noticed short distance beyond the
town of Washington, upon the left hand
side of the track and few hundred feet
from it, mound, the only visible ground
for mile around except the track, and
upon this small earthly elevation were three
of the most despondent-looking horses a
person would wish to see. They look as
though their subsistence ever since the
food had been confined to water. Now,
wouldn't it be charitable for some one Gf
the horses have no owner to take out sew
eral bales of hay to keep life in the poor
dumb brutes, whose instincts are so limited
that they do not prompt them to swim to
the high ground? Cannot some charitably
inclined person carry food to the furnishing
equines ?"

RELIEF ASKED FOR.

The Government PetItioned to Improve
the Sacramento River.
At the request of Governor Waterman a
few citizens met at his office yesterday to
consult with him relative TO the advisable
ity of asking the Government to take i'm
mediate steps looking to the improvement
of the channel of the Sacramento river,
which is cow threatened with injury by
the broken levees. The subject was in
formally discussed at some length, when
the following appeal was decided upon:
SACRAMENTO, December is, 1889.
To Hon Leldlld Stanford GATED States Senator,
Washington, d. c.: The Sacramento river is in
danger of changing its channel. There is a
break two miles below the bridge, which is one
thousand feet wide. An immense bar is form
ing below the break, across the river.
As hydraulic mining has ceased the appro-
priation of $3.50, COG in the hands of the War De-
partment is available. and oughtto be used now
10 save the navigation of the river.
r. W. W ATERMAN, Governor.

Senator Stanford, and ii will be supple

OF 1nterest to travelling statesmen.

1t is not generally known that the Young
Mems Christian Associations of the coun-
try are doing any special work for CONNER
cial travellers, but such is the case. The
International Committee, with headquar-
tsrs at New York, issue special tickets for
travelling men, with which they furnish the
different local Associations throughout the
country. These tickets are then issued by
the Association to the travelling men, and
that entities them to all the privileges OF
any Association in any town where they
may stop Hence, membership is even
more useful to man on the road than one
at home. There are many different lines
of this work for young men that are very
interesting as more is learned about them.

THAT TRUTH is stranger than fictlor

THAT TRUTH ls stranger than fiction
is abundantly exemplifed In the Ham
ilion Atlantic City scandal. This man,
who is scion OF one of the oldest and
best families in this country, and very
wealthy, became infatuated with a
handsome but extremely bad woman,
who with two others equally as bad as
herself, managed TO fleece him of
thousands of dollars. This however
does not seem 10 have been sufficient
10 satisfy this adventures, and she
conceived plan TO force him into q
marriage. For this purpose she went
10 Elmira. n. Y, where she was
living with drunken, worthless
wretch, to whom there is every reason
10 believe she was married several
years ago, on her dupe's money. A
child was then procured, which she
Informed MIR. Hamilton was his, and
with this infant on her knees would
shed hypocri,lcal tears as she cooed to
II that II had no one whom II could
claim as Its father, and no name
This was continued, until at last Ham
ilton moved by the best impulses made
her his wife, and then she commenced
10 show her true nature.
Fights and disturbances were OF
Common occurrence between them, and
the last fight ended in tho serious
stabblng OF the nurse, and the landing
of this willy woman In jail. Even
then Hamilton chung to her, and no
doubt would have spent fortune In
her defense had not his friends, uu
known to him, obtained the services
of New York detectives who have not
only secured evidence which c,arly
shows that the child which Hamilton
thought was his was purchased for
$40, and that there was c41spiracy,
not only 10 exturt money from him
continually, but TO eventually secure
bis entire estate. This has been VERT
fed by the confessions Of two Of the
conspirators, who are now In jul. Ii
Is probable that had Hamilton con.
tinued 10 live with this woman she
would have found II convenient some
day to get rid Of him, and from what
IL now known of her character 1t is
certain that she would not have hest
tated to remove him. Fortunately for
him the scales have been removed from
his eyes, and he intends TO prosecute
her and her Co conspirGtors to the ex.
tent of the law. Tie entire story Is
stranger than fiction but contains q
useful moral, which lie who Iuns can
read.

away from the polls. Had they been
permitted to vote the Republican can
didate would have been elected, and
this fact was so well known to the
Democrats that for weeks before the
election every means at their command
was used to terrorIze and intimidate
the Republican voters. In fact they
were not even allowed to hold meet
ings, and those who attempted to do 80
were threatened with the conse-
quences. This lie the way the district
was carried and the Democratic candI.
date elected, and It is potent argument
in favor OF Congress passing law
regulating elections for Congressman.
