y Heck Thomas, the we'll known and
very successful deputy marshal who
has heretofore operated principally in
the Chickasaw nation, will hereafter
work with Deputy Isbell in this ma
ton. The two officers left for Benton
VILE Tuesday evening by rail for the
purpose of identifying John Barber
and man named Stevens who are
said to be under arrest there for horse
stealing, but who the U. s. authorities
have indicted for murder on the occa-
sion of the Verdigris bridge tram rob-
berry last year. Should the identity OF
the parties be complete aud satisfac-
tory, the presumption is that the state
officers will gladly turn the men over
for trial by the federal authorities on
the greater ohense of murder. When
arrested the men had quite a bunch o
horses, eleven OF which are still un-
claimed. Deputy Thomas has the fol-
lowing named prisoners now under ar
Test: VIM. Brady, Of Wagner, as.

GRAINS OF GOLD.
q that is loved is safe,

She that is loved is safe.
Boast of the day in the evening.
Charity is not an action; it is life.
Think well before taking action.
Recall every day one good thought.
Live to explain thy doctrine by thy
life.
Perfect sincerity is the result of deeI
! inward order.
One has but to conquer ones self, and
one lives happily.
Confidence gives a fool the advantage
over wise man.
Loves voice doth sing as sweetly in a
beggar as king.
The vocation of every man and woman
is to serve other people.
Correction of error is the plainest proof
of energy and mastery.
One ungrateful man does an injury to
all who stand in need of aid.
Aids to forgetfulness would be as pop

Ignorance is the night of mind, but a
night without moon or star.
As the rolling stone gathers no moss
so the rowing heart gathers no affections
We cannot all be as wise as Solomon,
but we can all stop pretending that we
are.
Vanity indeed is venial error; for
it usually carries its own punishment
with it.
You can often determine the value of
mans character from the character OF
his enemies.
If man be busy, and busy about his
duty, what more does he require, for

Now of all the benefits that virtue
confers upon us, contempt of death is

We sometimes congratulate ourselves

THE RUSH FOR OFFICE.


Pittsburgh Commercial Gazette.
1t is a commendable ambition that
prompts an American citizen to apply
for an Office of honor and profit under
the Government-provided, of course, he
is competent to fill the place to which
he aspires. These offices must be filled
by some person, and the most fitting
seem to be those who, by common con-
sent, have in large measure the good
will and confidence of their fellow citi-
zens. In other words, the man who has
the "best backing" is generally regard
ed as entitled to the place, and in nine
cases out of ten he succeeds in get
ting it.
The great majority of those who apply
for Office are not of this class, however,
and to them ce-seeking is an uphill
and miserably disappointing business.
Not one in twenty succeeds, and of the
whole number who take Office under the
Government a very large percentage
would do better to remain at their
accustomed avocations or take their
chances in some business venture. This
is the testimony of thousands who have
held subordinate places under the Gov
ernment, and the wonder is that so
many who are competent to make
good living at home should flock into
Washington or seek to go abroad in the
hope of bettering their condition. About
the worst thing young man of fair ed
ucation and average capacity can do is
to bury himself in department clerk
ship at Washington, or chase after some
soft position in the gift of some Govern
ment functionary.
