Sensational Report

1t had been currently reported that a
colored by named JAS. Sellmsn who
died few days ago, and whose remains
were exhumed the other day for re-inter-
ment, had been buried alive. In remov-
ing the earth from the coffin II was dis
covered that the lid of the coffin was
split open, which gave rise to the report
that the boy was buried alive The coflin
was made of plain wood, and put In the
ground without box or covering. and
it Is supposed the weight of the earth
caused the lid OF the coffin to cave in,
and the colored people reported that the
boy was buried alive.

Don't Lift the wire.

ought to be taught In every school In the

electric wire off the ground. AS long as

may be on It, The moment Ii leaves
the ground 1t may be dangerous II II Is
in the way of traffic, you may safe put

not lift 1t. Never touch wire tied on q

Persons having old postage stamps
sometimes think they are rendered worth
less by the issue of new ones. This Is
not so. The only obsolete stamps are
those of the issue of 1S47 and 1851, very
few of which are now In existence In the
North, and these are generally worth
more than their face value for collectors.
The issues of 1869 and 1871 are as good
In the payment of postage as the new Is
sues. The reason the issues of 1S47 and
amounts of these were outstanding In the
South at the time of the rebellion, and
the present holders of them probably Sc
cured them without rendering an equiv
alent TO Uncle Sam.

The time Is drawing near for the fnal
graduation OF this years class OF naval
cadets, who have just flashed their two
wears cruise after leaving the Academy.
There will be twenty eight or twenty nine
graduates, but there VIII mol be that many
vacancies Ia the service, and plumber OF
them will be discharged with one year :
pay. There are at present ten vacancies
Ia the grade OF ensign. and the resignation
OF Ensign Edison w. Sutphen. which will
take effect June 30. will make one more.
There are no vacancies in the engineer
CORPS, but two assistant engineers are re-
quired TO be appointed annually, even
though no vacancies exist. In the ma
rine corps there are at present three va
cancies and there are three more In pros
pect.
Capt. A. S. Taylor has asked TO be re-
tired, Lieut. Carroll Mercer has resigned
to take effect June 80, and Lieut. Ill. X.
Gilman, who Is on leave Of absence until
June %, will probably resign on that
date. This would bring the total num-
Der of vacancies available up TO nineteen.
The number may be still further increas-
ed by the appointment OF one or two. en-
signs 10 be assistant naval constructors,
thus making more vacancies in the grade
of ensign, aud II is quite likely to be
slightly increased by retirement for disa-
blIIty 1t Is probably If no deaths occur
before July that five or six OF the naval
cadets will fail TO receive appointments,
and will be discharged with year 8
pay.
