than he had before. His business methods

pays OF certain number every working
day. He works from O'Clock in the
morning until 10 o'clock at night, and. out

The esteemed republican organs are re-
marking with noticeable unanimity that in
fixing the government rate for telegraphic
messages at about cent word, Postmaster
General Wanamaker has acted fairly
toward all parties concerned. A little while
ago, when the Postmaster General wanted
to fix the rate at one mill word, the same
organs remarked with the same noticeable
unanimity that such a course would be fair
to all concerned. Brother Wanamaker is
very popular with the republican organs.
He raised nearly 100000 for Quay's cor
ruption fund.

A citizen of New York has been pictur-
ing possible sensation in connection with
the Brooklyn bridge. He says: "On the
land approaches on both sides the iron
framework passes directly over business
warehouses. If any of these caught fire
and were consumed, the intense heat might
easily warp and destroy the cables and their
iron supports sufficiently to endanger the
structure. l have examined the situation
personally, and it seems strange to me that
no preparations are made against such a
contingency"

From the Chicago Tribune.
''If understand you, madam, " said the phy.
sician, your husband finds himself unable to
sleep at nighty'
He does sir, replied the anxious lady.
While, on the contrary, you habitually over
sleep, and this interferes with your household
duties. In other words he sleeps too little and
you sleep too much. Is that it!n
''Yes, sir"
Madam" said the doctor, after a moments
reflection, neither of you is in need of any
drugs Let your husband eat a large onion
every night just before he goes to bed That is
all that is necessary"
But how will that help my own casef'
"All you have to do, madam, replied the
doctor, as he made out his bill for consultation,

1t is amusing to hear the republican
organs talk about Judge DeWolfe ''sus-
tanning democratic fraud in Montana"
The Montana republicans concocted a de-
liberate and bold plan to steal the legisla-
ture, and it looks very much as if Judge
Wolfe would defeat it. The republican
organs, seeing that the schems is about to
fail, are trying to save themselves and the
Montana republicans from that public con-
demnation which they so richly deserve, by
charging the democrats with fraud.

not been prevailed upon to remove him, and his

board to make returns of the Tunnel precinct

every expedient to confuse and delay justice

Dear Brother Wanamaker, you are not
as consistent as renowned Sunday school
teacher should be. In 1855, several months
previous to the presidential campaign, you
wrote letter to Mr.. Charles H. Banes, of
Philadelphia, in which you spoke very
highly of Postmaster aarrity, as an official.
The other day you dismissed Mr.. Harrity,
although his term had not expired, and
in doing so you implied that he was
not an acceptable official OF course, when
you wrote your letter to Mr.. Banes you had
no idea that you would be Postmaster Gen
eral within a year, but that has nothing to
do with the matter. Your opinion of Mr..
Harrity, as expressed in that letter, was
evidently an honest one. Why, then,
should you not have at least allowed an
efficient and trustworthy postmaster to
fill out his term9

Dr.Young Likely to Have His Measure
Taken For Good Fat Office.
AS the time approaches for the in
auguration ceremonies, the office seek
ers are laying wires and their hearts
grow heavy with anxiety. Quite a
number ofour Republican friends are
circulating petitions for appointment
and even some Democrats hope 10 re-
tain their portion of the pie.
The present Examining Board for
Pensions, consisting of Drs. Dulin,
Blakey and Dennis, petition to be
retained and Mr.. Coombs has been
circulating petition among ex-Fed-
eral soldiers asking their retention,
meeting with some success. DR..
Sargent, the Democratic member of
the old board, will ask rc-appoint-
ment and is backed by some intiueu-
tial Republicans. DIR. Jas. A. Young
the surviving Republican member,
has been suspiciously quiet and eth
er thinks he has a sure thing on be-
ing re-appointed or else means to
strike higher. We hear whisper
that in case certain politician said
to be on the slate is called to the
treasury department DIR. Young will
ask high position among the medi-
cal appointments from the govern,
ment and we say without reserve
that if this Is tho case we know of
no one better fitted to fill one than
he. DIR. Young received liberal
education at B-thany College and
the Kentucky University and grad
uated In Medicine at Hahnenann
College, Philadelphia. In addition 10
this he spent some months few
years ago In attendance upon the
clinic and hospitals of Cincinnati, at
tending St. Mary's, the City and the
Good Samaritan hospitals and the
Surgical clinic of Drs. Mussey and
Dawson the clinics on Women and
Children of Drs. Reamy and Harris
orne,and Ely Ear aud Throat by Drs.
Sealy and McDermott. Two years
subsequently he visited the hospitals
of St. Louis, attending the best clinics
in the city. DR.. Young filled the
place of examining surgeon for PEN
sions for l3 years, examining in one
year 800 applicants and more than
5000 during his term of office. Few
men in the profession, of his age,
have had the advantages he has, and
he stands deservedly high ssa dog
nostician and practitioner. The pro-
fession in both schools concede his
ability and attachments and would
join us in saying that he is compe-
tent to fill any position the coming
administration may give him.

Renovating Old Clothes.

utility and value of n cleaner can not
be overestimated when mans ward
robe is considered. Many New York
ers throw n suit OF clothes aside or
discard coat or trousers because there
is n spot or two visible and general
musiness about the collar. II they
would open negotiations with some
little tailor in side street and have
him inspect their clothes regularly

of dust and travel they would find that
the improvement, rs far as appearances
are concerned. would amount to some
thing like seyenty-fve per cent A

as good as new within three or four

which are exceedingly valuable, and
men who believe in dressing we'll
should remember it.-M T. San.
