Delegate Dubois called upon the president to-
day to urge the early appointment of a Repub-
licln marshal and United States district attor-
ney for Idaho. He says that the territory will
hold constitutional convention at an early day
and will proceed at once to organize a state gov
eminent and elect officers, a Legislature, a con-
gresham aud senators. They will then come to
congress and urge the cary passage of the bill
for the admission of the territory. In order to
provide for this it is desirable that all federal
officials of the territory should be Republican.
He has recommended to the president, there
fore, the names of Joseph P. Wilson for marshal
and Willis Sweet for district attorney. Wilson

been for several terms sheriff of that county,
and is known throughout the territory as an
abe and influential officer and Republican.
Willis Sweet, the proposed attorney, is proml-
nent lawyer OF Northern Idaho. The secretary
OF the treasury has called upon the appointment
officer for the papers III the case Of the Boise
CitVgnitnt, and it, is understood that the APP
pointment Of assayer, meter and cUiner will be

!. The Sioux Commission.

WAsn1NGToN, -Spec:al Telegram, April TO-
There istanother hitch in The appointment Of
the, Sioux commission. Two of the persons
whom Secretary Noble had selected refused to
serve, and the matter has gone over for few
days One Of these persons is Congressman
William Warner of Missouri, but it is under
stood by dint OF considerable telegraphing to-
day, his objections have been overcome, and
that he will accept. He desired very much
to go upon the Cherokee commission. but
owing to the opposition of the Cherokees them
selves, hc was refused the place. He was greatly
disappointed. The name of the remaining per-
son who declines appointment could not be
learned. but il is hoped that his PLACE can be
ii led in day or two. It is reported that John
H. King of Dakota, Charles Failir of Ohio. and
Gen Crook. of the army, are to be on the com
mission. The instructions to the commission
have been signed by the secretary. They are
almost Identical with those given TO last years
commission, and conform to the terms of this
wears act

BOulanger on Trial.

When the French senate met on Friday the
president read the decree constituting that
body q tribunal for the trial of Gen. Boulan-
ger, Count Dillon and NJ. Rochefort. The
prOcureur general, Quesnay de Beaurrenair,
then read a statement setting forth the
grounds upon which the constitution o. the
accused is based. When the reading was cen
Guided, the senate went into executive SEES
sion and the public withdrew. The trial of
Gen Boulanger and his associates was then
formally begun. The senators had been re.
quested to appear in evening dress for he
occasion, The request was ignored by
the members of the right, all of whom
wore frOck coats The members of
the LETT were attireI in evening
dress and wore white cravats. The following
commission has been appointed to conduct
the trial of Gen. BOulanger and the other &c
cused persons: Senator Merlin, Cazot, Cor
delet, TraTieux, Muner, De Marcere, Demole,
L'Avertujon, Merellet and Humbert. Assist
ant commissioners have also been appointed,
who will replace their colleagues on the leg
ular commission if necessary. The assistant
commissioners are Senators Garrigat,
Dusolier, Devclle De Roziere and Testein.
Senator Delbrei will not attend the trial.
He holds that political body like the senate
has no right to try delegate of the people.
He declares that the trial is a revolutionary
measure and q defiance o. universal suffrage.
Senator Leon Renuult will also abstain from
participation in the trial motion from the
Right. declaring that there was no ground for
qjudicial inquiry INTO theconduct of Boulan-
ger, was rejected by a vote OF 200 to So. The
senate then resolved, by n vote of 30 to
80, to proceed Immediately with his trial.
Thereupon the doors We're reopened and the
public was resumed. NJ. Leroyer read. the
decree authorizing the senate to set as q
court and directed that the trial proceed.
Several members OF thS Right refused to ac-
cept u seat on the senate commission.
Marshal Courobert in an excited speech said
he would never be aparty to the prosecu-
ton on such frivolous grounds of general
who had well served his country. The sit
ting was a stormy one. The spectators
were apathettc.

WASHINGTON NEWS.
The President Shows No DISPOSE
ton to Create Cyclone of PO-
liticaI Removals.

WASHINGTON, April lO.-The long list OF
postmasters appointed yesterday inspired
the office seekers with an Infamous appre-
pension that the hour of the long and
anxiouSly prayed-fOr clean sweep had at last
struck. A careful analysis of the papers in
the various cases flied in the department
does not justify this sunguine concensus Of
Judgment. Only i minute fraction Of the
appointments were of the clean-sweep sort
or forty seven appointments to presidential
offices ten were to fill vacancies made
by designations, ten were to va
cancies created by the expiration OF
terms, eleven were to offices that
have newly become presidential, and six
teen were to replace postmasters removed
or the sixteen, three were removed foI
causes, and it is said several more might
have been, only the department was not dis
posed to send men out of office with Il baG
record where it could be avoided Others, ii
is explained, were EDITORS of Democratic pa
pers who challenged removal by bitter at
tacks upon the administration since the 4th
of March Offensive partisans, ambitious OF
martyrdom, whom it was thought best to
CRAFTY. 1t is known that there was much
sober consideration over this list of post
musters Mr.. Wanamaker was closeted with
il and the president for two hours, and 1t was
nearly night before the announcements were
made.
To-day the department was fortified with
Justification for all the changes made, SC
there is no evidence yet of departure from
the rule laid down u month ago. tina, re.
movals would not be general in presidential
postOftlces, and that most of Mr. Cleveland s
appointments would be permitted to SCI VIC
out their terms. OF the two Northwestern
appointments in the list, one, that at LIVING
ston, was to fill vacancy created by rcsg-
nation, and the other, at Madison s. D.. to
fill vacancy caused by the failure OF he
senate to confirm one of Mr.. ClevelanQ's ap-
pointments. 1t may be that Wanamaktr has
been warned by the fate that has overtaken
Secretary Noble. Officials of the interior uc-
partment FAY it was more crowded to-day
than it has been since the 4th of March. All
OF the office seekers in town seem to have
deserted the other departments to flock
there, accepting as an invitation Mr. Mobiles
recent declaration of policy. The reputa-
ton of a mode ate civil service reIormer is
not only a good thing in the abstract, but it
is shield and strong castle to protect
cabinet officers from the assaults of the mob.

Literally Construed,

WASHINGTON. April 1O.-Assistant Secretary
Bussey is giving more liberal construction to
the tension laws than has heretofore been given
and each day number of former decisions OF
the pension office are overruled. Among other
recent reVersals are the following: In the case
of Henrietta Breckenridge, a colored woman,
who applied for pension q dependent widow
OF Omstead Breckinridge, Company K One Hun
dred and Twenty-third United States Colorcd
troops, he revCrses the pension office decision.
Her application was first rejected on the ground
that she was not his wife, as they were both
slaves at the time of his enlistment and lived in
Kentucky where the law did not recognize
the legality of marriage among slaves
Assistant Secretary Bussey holds that
:he point is not material and they
cOhaDited directs pension to issue. John
Miller, Company c, second battalion. Sixth ma
tional guard cavalry. has been allowed pension
after he pension office had rejected his clam
on the ground that disability did not develop
until after his discharge, and that disease was
not contract ed in the line OF service. Sarah Jane
Morgan, mother OF William Morgan, Company
A, Fourth United States artillery, has been al
lowed pension evidence adduCed to
support her claim Simeon B. Williams, Com
pany A, Thirty fifth Ohio volunteers, has been
the accidental discharge Of his gun His claim
nrst rejected by the pension office on the
ground that there no record of his being at
tached to the regiment at he time the accident
occurred, but Assistant Secretary Bussey holds
that the evidence OF the officers and comrades of
Williams is sufficient in the absence of the Of
fetal record.

Where snow drifts lay is seen the grass,
The Boreal breeze no longer blows, /.
The mecurys rising in the grass,
And men are wearing thinner hose,
The heavy ulster's put aside,
Light ov"rcOats are taken out,
The gentle maiden in the pride
OF new spring garments goes about.
The early robin bitterly sings
So would the poet sing to-day
If 'twere not for the fact that things,
Alas are all the other way

An old Hon.

An Old Hen.
A hen belonging to Mr.. H. NJ. Tur-
nsr, near Shsphsrdstown, died few
days ago at the ripe old age OF 81
years-and this statement can be au-
thenticated, singular ~ it may seem.
She died OF old age, after having per
formed all the duties Of respectable
hen up to her twentieth year. Until
last fall she had been an industrious
layer Of eggs, and regularly raised her
brood of chickens. Since last fall,
however, she gradually grew feeble,
and when she died she showed many
signs Of wear and tear She only had
a couple of toes left, one eye was
gone, her bill was worn almost entire
ly away, and she was bald headed
and lame. For several months past
she had been quite childish and would
deluds herself into the idea that she
was laying eggs when such was not
the fact. She would get on the nest,
remain there awhile, and then get of
and cackle at great rate, though
there was not the sign Of an egg. She
was the oldest hen OF this community,
without doubt.

ey appropriated by the Town Coun-
ell will be used to call the attention

ing a paper, which will be devoted to
a detailed description Of the many ad-
vantages Of Shepherdstown. Prop
critics suitable for sites for manufac
tories will be described, the owners Of

scattered broadcast over the country.
Persons who have property in the
town or vicinity that they wish to dis
pose OF should communicate with any
member OF the committee, which IL
composed of II. L. Snyder, H. w. Potts,

The earnest cooperation Of the peo-
pie Of the community is asked in this
movement, the only object OF which
is the prosperity and advancement Of
Shepherd,town. 1t is desired to have
the paper issued in about two weeks
If possible.
