Minister Whitelaw Reid is not making
rapid progress adjusting what has beco ne
known rs the Mentone outrage. 1t will be
remembered that some weeks ago two
American ladies were imprisoned at Men
tone, France, because they had not paid a
miIhner's bill IN that country. They were
justified in refusing to pay the bill, and
when they were arrested and imprisoned
Minister Reid was instructed to look into
the matter The women complain that Mr..
Reid did not seem to be int eSted in it,
and that he is making much slower progress
toward a settlement than he should. Fhe
state department at Washington, however.
says that every effort is being made to have
the matter settled.

How He Insulted Her.



When Gen. o. 0. Howard was marching down
through Ten ieSsee, Gen Whittlesey, late pres-
dent of the Freedmens Bank, was assistant
adiutant general on his staff. WhIttlesey had
been clergyman down in Maine, and was fully
as straight-laced as Howard One day Howard
drove into a farm yard from whic Whttlesey
was just departing. A woman and ner grown
daughter were standing outside the door.
My good woman" said Howard, will you
kindly give me drink OF water?'
No Get.out Of my yard. A lot of more i'm
pudent yankees never seed
But l have done nothing and said nothing
out of the way, and will severely punish any of
my soldiers who should say or do anything
wrong
That soier insulted me-" said she. pointing
to the retreating form of Gen. Whittlesey. He
axed me for drink of water, and When ! done
give it TO him he sassed me-"
"But-but that is Gen Whittlesey of my
staff. l am sure he wouldn't be rude to any
woman"
Nav" said the girl pulling her mothers
dress, Il reckon he moughtn't have meant any
thing misbsnolden."
Hush; don't l know low down backguard

the state of my Datvty?"

The Early Fly.

II is in the morning early,
When we're sometimes cross and surly
And We feel that we must sleep a tribe more,
That the worst OF ali anuOyers.
The great prince of rest destroyers,
The pesky fly, begins mis- festive soar.
We pretend we do not hear him,
That it's not worth while to fear him,
And we try 70 make ourselves believe we sleep;
Then ne lights on arm or shoulder,
But he very soon grows holder,
And directly for our ears begins 70 creep.
Then it is we give up dreaming,
When, our brain with wild thoughts teeming,
We proceed to kill him with fearful slap;
With slam we spread our fingers,
All about the spot he fingers,
But the fly escapes, we've nothing but the slap
This performance oft repeated
Gets our patience oyeFheated,
And we swear the house of flies shall now be
Bhorn;
Then We presently forget it,
But Wen previously regret it
When we try to sleep again tomorrow morn

Senator Chandler has again denied that
Senator Blackburn pulled his carat least
he has published what he intended should
be taken by the public for denial. In a
New Hampshire newspaper of few days
ago, he says; 1T is painful, in view If suca
a self-complacent epic as Mr.. Faulkner
writes, to be compelled to disturb his equa-
nimity by differing from him. Had l seen
Mr.. Blackburn as his Sancao Panza saw
him, might have been frightened. Mr..
Blackburn did not catch me by the upper
part of the ear and give it 'contem ptuous
twist II Mr. Blackburn touched my head
at all it was only at tue instant when JSena-
tor Cullom seized his hand or arm and he
stepped back and gratefully sank into the
ca acious and welcome arms of his de-
liyerer.' Chambers vindictive nature is
shown in what he says about this affair.
The public will probably agree, however,
that if he had brought forward proof OF his
denial, instead of displaying his malig ity,
he would have done better. 1t is under
stood that Senator Cullom, who was present
when Chambers ear was pulled, refuses to
state tat it was not pulled.

Postmaster General Wanamaker is rep
resented as feeling hurt on account of
newspaper criticisms of his order in regard
to telegraph rates for the government. One
Of his intimate friends says that the Post
master General will undoubtedly be forced
to recede from his position, but that it was
a position which was honestly taken, there
fore adverse criticism is very unpleasant.
This friend goes on to say that Mr.. Wanna
maker had what he thought was reliable
information that certain corporations and
newspapers We're given a rate of telegraph
ing as low as mill a word by the Western
Union company, but that in fact the in-
formation was not reliable He thinks Mr..
Wanamaker will acknowledge his mistake
and will take the black track"

Postmas er Palmer of Morton, Pa, is
likely to resign. He thinks the government
should deliver the mails at the pos;office,
which is about 20J feet from the railroad
station, and for some days no mail has been
distributed at Morton, as he refused to
carry it that distance himself. The COVE n
ment has notified him that he must accept
the mails. and he says that he will do so for
few days, but that his resignation will
soon be offered. No doubt there are good
many men in Morton who would be glad to
be postmaster there, and who would not
object to sending some one after the mails

very interesting suit has been brought
the Connecticut courts by a woman. She
asks for an injunction against a neighbor,
and also for $1,000 damages. The grounds
OF her suit are these: Her neighb1r has
placed fly screens in ais doors and windows,
and thus keeps the flies out of his house
The woman says that on eccount of these
screens of her neighbor, she has to provide
for more than her quota of flies 1t Is
alleged that under the very wise laws of
Connecticut, each householder must provide
for his own share of tae village fies. Tho
woman who brings the suit wants the law
enforced. She appears to be confident that
the court will enjoin her neighbor fir m
using fly screens, and give her damages for
feeding more than her share Of flies.

South Carolina furnished SO. 900 soldiers to the
armies Of the south, and the survivors returned
to HON - vi utter desolatiOn when the war
ended; but under q state law that proffers
pension to every actually dependent South
Carolina soldier or his dependent widow, there
are only 1892 on the pension roll, and of that
number only 539 are soldiers, tie others being
soldiers widows who became dependen in their
old age. The lesson is certainly an instructive
one in this age Of the fragrant abuse of our
national pension laws for the be eft of many

The republican newspapers say that Gov.
Beaver, of Pen sylvania, is very cheerful
over the grumbling of people at Johns
town on account of the supposed misappii-
cation of large part of the relief fund for

grumbling as a good sign, Just as petulance
on the part OF a sick person is a good sign.
