Better Left Unsaid

A young man from Omaha who made his
debut in Washington society one evening last
week was chatting with a charming lady.
when the theatre became the topic of CONVEX
satlon. He did not know much about the
theatre, SO he cautiously maintained as much
brilliant silence as the circumstances per-
mitted.
Did you know that 1 once appeared upon
the stage in operaF' the lady asked.
"N-n-no." Hewas not quite sure but it was
uncomplimentary to the lady to say he had
never heard of it, but truth was mighty and
did prevail
Yes, said she cheerily; 81 once PLAYED

his speech. Her face twisted and grew
livid with fury. She put down Tota and
literally sprang at Indaba-zinbi as a
monkey springs. But, weary and worn
as he was, the old gentleman was too
quick f9r her. With an exclamation of
genu1re fright he threw himself from

somewhat ludicrous result that all in a

The Headsman to Retire.

WASHINGTON, May a.-First Assistant
Postmaster General Clarkson leaves to-
morrow for an extended official tour of the
far west. He will at once proceed to Seat
tie. From that point diverging tours will
be made through Washington and Oregon.
Later he will visit San Francisco and other
leading cities and towns in California. The
prime object of his tour is to obtain knowl-
edge of the postal needs for the Pacific
slope. Clarkson is of the opinion that the
far west is entitled to better facilities and
believes that western man acquainted
with the peculiarities and rapidity of west
ern development is best able to judge OF
its postal needs. He will make close in.
spection of the service at all important GEN.
ters and on his return. in about month OF
six weeks, he will make such recommends
tions as the situation demands. On his re-
turn to Washington he will tender to the
president his resignation, to take effect i'm

Northern Pacific Omcials Said to Have
Stood In With the Lottery.
MnNEAPoIm, May 3l.-The Journal
prints sensational story affecting promi-
nent officials of the Northern Pacific. It
charges that on the night of February 4th
the Western Union Telegraph wire was cut
two miles east of jamestown, N. d., but
investigation proves that the work was
done by prominent Northern Pacific OFF,
cials, and two operators, it is supposed, at
the instance Of still higher official who.
it is claimed. worked tho wire himself in
Bismarck. At that time great many tel
egrams, both for and against the Louisiana
lottery project, were passing over the
wires. Tho operators side tracked
those unfavorable to the lottery
and rushed the others through. Il is
charged they advised the friends Of the lot
tery Of the contents of the messages intend
ed for anti-lottery people, in advance Of
their delivery to those entitled to them.
Long petitions and lists of names in favor
of the lottery were, it is said, rushed
through without charge, while protests
against the lottery were delayed. The
Western Union made full investigation of
the charges, obtaining satisfactory proof Of
their truth.

For Governor of Alabama.

MONTGOMERY, Ala, May H.-The demo-
cratic convention met this morning. Bal
loting commenced, with all candidates, but
there had been an agreement that all anti
Kalb forces would support Col. Thomas G.
Jones for governor. The roll of counties
commenced and every vote, not for Kalb,
was cast for Jones. The result was not
announced, as Kalb's friends withdrew his
name and moved jones' nomination by
exclamation. Everybody went wild, and
the convention had to suspend proceedings.
Kalb pledges himself to support the nomi-
nation.
The platform adopted reaffirms ALLEGIANCE
to the principles of the democratic party as
promulgated by Jefferson, defended by
jackson and maintained by Grover Oleve-
land. It holds that any interference on the
part of the government in the selection of
senator's and representatives in congress is
usurpation of power unwarranted by the
constitution. Unalterable opposition to the
present high tariff is declared and liberal
and thorough system of public schools ia
vored. 1t further declares that the welfare
of the entire people of the state, without
regard to race or color, depends on the con-
tinued administration of public affairs by
the democratic party, which alone COM
bines the intelligence, experience and vir-
tue necessary to perpetuate the blessings of
free government, and that the continuation
in power of that party is the highest duty
of all white men.
