another of the relapses which have marked
the progress of his illness. Last night he
was restless, and had fever. Today he Is
quite i'll. The justice has complication OF
disorders, none alone Of very grave charae-

attacks and impaired digestion.
The News In Brief.
WASHINGTON, March. 14.-The secretary
Of the navy has under consideration numer-
GUS appeals from prominent citizens of this
country to furnish naval vessel to convey
the body Of John Ericsson to his native land
In recognition Of his distinguished services
In producing the monitor, which rendered
such valuable aid to the government In a
critical moment. On the other hand, re-
quest has also been received at the depart
ment that this be not done, on the ground
that his native country failed to recognise
his inventive genius, and that his adopted
country should care for his body.
J, A. Gleason has resigned as postmaster
at Union, Me.
Senator Farwell has invented new scheme
for satisfying the several States In their de-
mands for patronage. He says he believes
in an equal distribution and thoroughly
partisan service. He proposes that, instead
OF having congressman and politicians
swarming the White House and claiming
ten times more for each State than the entire
patronage of the government, the President
should furnish the congressional delegations
a list Of the offices to which In his Judgment
their State Is entitled. Such a list could be
prepared In a short time by a clear-headed
statlstician. Then the representatives Of
the States could select from among the can
didates for offices those who. In their judg-
ment were best qualified for the positions
named and send the rest Of them home. In
this way the President could protect himself
from opportunities, the States could be salts
fed and the offices Tiled with the best men
available for them.

Mr.. J. J. Hansen has planted suit
against E. T. Hosford, to recover $40 due

The ''angel of DEATH visited the family
of Z. L. Parry on Tuesday night, and re-
moved from that happy home, the youngest
son, Master George Parry. Funeral ser
vices were held on Thursday afternoon at
o'clock. Master Hughie Parry is also
very low at present, caused by a heavy
cold which has settled on him, and it is
said that it will require great attention
to the little patient, to bring him round
again.

books than it has been in Manti. The PEG

characters, are very good, but as for the

pie, they would shine better in the role of

as actors. The idea seems to be carried
by some companies that anything will do
for the country, but they generally find
themselves mistaken.
