PENSION BUREAU.
Method of Getting Rid of an Objection
able Officer.


WASHINGTON, January 17th.-Commis-
sioner of Pensions Raum has sent letter
to Secretary Noble requesting the removal
from Office of Henry A. Phillips of New
York, Chief of the Middle Division in the
Pension Bureau, on the ground that the
efficiency of the Bureau will be promoted
thereby.
On April 23d last, during Corporal Tan
ner's administration. Phillips pension was
rerated and increased. For this reason
Secretary Noble some weeks later requested
him to resign. This, however, he declined
to do, and no further action has since been
taken until to day, owing, it is said, to the
pressure which was brought to bear in
Phillips behalf by members of Congress
and others. 1t if believed Phillips dis
missal will be soon followed by Others
whose pensions were rerated, and several
others will be reduced in rank and pay.

Death in Evil Odors.

From the Pittsburg Dispatch.
You can kill a man quicker by an evil smell
than any other way in the world If you know
how to go about it, and all evil smells are in
greater or less degree poisonous and reduce vi
tality where they do not destroy outright. The
London Lancet gave the case of gentleman in
a railroad car detained alongside cars of hogs
in an offensive condition about fifteen minutes
He was taken i'll with symptoms of prostration,
though previously in health, and died shortly
after, poisoned by the intolerable odor. Down
in old Quincy, Mass, not SO very far from John
Adams's bayfield, of the Revolution, on by
road used to be, may be now, that distress to a
neighborhood known as a Pig farm If you
ever come within two miles of such an instltu-
tion with the wind your way you will remem-
Der and flee the vicinity ever after think it
was Capt Adams's wife living ON the straight
road from the farm, hard-working, enduring
New England woman, who began sinking in
health soon after the establishment of the pig
gerry and died in decline She protested over
and over that the air from the pig farm was
killing her, and neighbor women believe to this
day that she died of the efluyia, which un-
doubtedly was the cause of her death.

A DIALOGUE.

LUZ.
oh. have you found the Fount of youth,
Or have you faced the Fire of Kor?
Or whence the form, the eyes, the mouth,
The voice, the grace we praised of yore?
Ah, lightly must the years have sped,
The long, the labor-laden years,
That cast no SHOWS upon your head,
Nor dim your eyes with any tearsl
And gently must the heart have beat
That, after many days, can send
SO soft, so kind blush to greet
To greet the advent of so old friend.
Ellie.
Another tale doth it repeat,
My mirror; and it tells me true
But Time, the thief of all things sweet,
Has failed to steal one grace from you.
One touch of youth he cannot steal,
One trait there is he leaves you yet;
The boyish loyalty, the leal
Absurd, impossible regretl
These are the magic: these restore
A phantom of the April prime,
Show you the face you liked of yore,
And give me back the thefts of Timel

HER SECRET OF SUCCESS.
why the Teas and Dinners of a Most Charm

Why the Teas and Dinners of n Most Charm
ing Lady Are So Attrac ctive.
What woman in America does not know the
bright, vivacious, and charming Jenny June2
The name she SO aptly adopted seems to be In
harmony with her writings, and she has done
great deal to bring gladness into the homes of
America. But 1t is not perhaps known to all
ladies that Jennie June. in addition to holding
the Office of President of the Soross Society, as
she did for so many years, has been a devoted
wife and mother, and has most charming
home. Good taste and all that real art can pro-
duce have been expended in her home, and her
charming teas and cozy dinners have for years
been the delight of her select army of friends
In conversation with lady friend short time
since, she said that the quality of dinner de-
pends not only upon the way in which it is pre-
pared and arranged, but also upon the quality of
the materials used. "Take, for example, baking
powder. If it is not of the proper quality no
housewife can produce good food. I use The
pure Baking Powder and find it excellent. 1t
makes light and delicious biscuit, and cake that
'melts' in everybody's mouth. 1t is certainly a
great success"
Such in brief is what one of the most popular
ladicsfin America has to say in regard to her
success as charming housekeeper That it
there can be no doubt, and as such it is COM
mended to their careful consideration. If Jenny
June finds Thepure Baking Powder so valuable
in her home, Is 1t not plain that other ladies
might meet with greater success in their baking
IL they also used it2

The Agricultural Bureau for this

full Of encouraging information.
Tie statistics furnished conclusivelY
prove that our people have not been
materially inconvenienced by the ex-
odus Of the blacks, but. on the other
hand, the outlook for the industrial
classes was never more promising.
1t was spprehended, at one time,
that the loss OF fully one.eighth OF the
entire black population Of North Caro-.
Il, a would seriously interfere with
our farming interests, but thst report
shows that the area u der cultivation
is as large this year as it was last.
and certainly the condition Of the
crop up To tins time is .nc"mparably
better.
But the evidence that the white
people Il this State can take tare OF
themselves il cumulative, for in many
parts Of the State the appear noes OF
thrift are greater than ever before.
Fruit growing is rec living more at.

tensively cultivated and there Is no
reason why Wine should not be made

any other part of the world. The
same sun that warns the plains OF
Italy, and the hnl.ides of France
warns uur q. ida. and the sky that
lends over us is just as beautiful and
kindling.
The most encouraging feature Of
the report ia that our people are no.
going in debt as much as frmerly
The number OF mortgages and liens
recorded this year is q third less than
last, and th, manure our farmers are
making at home has caused q great
falling off in the purchase Of f'rtili
