The Legal Phase OF the Question

AhC hoSO VI xuSStioH
A certain female woman, no longer basking
in single bessedness because upon q certain
occasion she had been married to a man, once
upon q time called upon a certain unsophis
ticsted and uninitated pawnbroker and rep.
ing low ebb; in fact. it afterwards trans
pired they did not ebb at all, and represented
TO her uncle that of the whole family 1t was
plain to be seen that Notwithstanding the
many drawbacks and other incidents con.
nected with her financial condition
prior to the period at which she had
first entered the domain occupied
and then held as her rightful and lawful in
heritance under the wise and useful home
stead law of Texas, she had on many and
numerous occasions endeavored TO have q
change made in the pOmpouS ponderOsity of
the mayor. and failing in this she clearly
sworn out the affidavit (her husband) had ac-
customed himself to practice pestiverous pro-
family and bombast. and had on other occa-
sions shown a real lack Of spiritualized ideal
ity to the extent of going to bed without re-
moving his boots and spurs, against which
the petitioner has sued out warrant for de-
famation of character and was now
consulting Uncle Emerson with q
view to raise money wherewith to
forestall the District Attorney and
such other officers of the court as might be in
league with the unfair and hard hearted de-
PENDANT. She then bought fine pair of soil
Waterbury clock from Uncle Jess, aud after
ward q secondhand sewing machine and left
for home, fully determined that in future
whenever she got into q tight place she would
go straight to Uncle Jesse for advice and
financial tonic.

WHAT San Antonio can not afford
to do in the matter of that Llano
railway is to permit any other city in
Texas to steal march on her. The
work of ascertaining accurately how
the land lies is in good hands. That
committee will make report that
can be accepted as the truth, or just
as near the exact facts as the most
careful and thorough examination
can arise. If derlcksburg and
Llano and San Antonio all pull to.

that as soon as brokers and bankers

Secretary Carlisle absolutely de-
climbed to outline his future financial
action. preferring to await the arrival
of the emergency before indicating
what he would do. II will be remem-
bered that when Mr.. Carlisle assumed
control of the treasury department the
free gold was reduced to a very small
figure. The officials feel that if Mr.
Carlisle was able to meet the demand

sENAIoR hILL
Begin. NJ. right AGAINST the Admins,

Begins HIS Fight Against the Administra-
tiOn, aEd the Challenge Is Accepted
NEW YORK. April IT.-A Washington
special to the World says: Senator Hill
has begun his fight for the control o;
the federal patronage in New York
state He has pursusded the post Office
committee Of the senate to demand
from the postmaster general written
copies Of the papers containing the rec
concentrations of the applicants for
presidential postmasters recently APP
pointed in New York The purpose of
senator Hill is evident and the admin
istratiOn accepts II as challenge.
The post offices concerned are those
of Malone, Plattsbnrg, Watertown and
Suspension Bridge, and the names of
the men presented to be postmasters
are Fay. Crowley, Clare and Horn. The
case of Horn is a peculiar one He was
endorsed by the best men of the town
The county machine asked the privi-
lege of indorsing him simply for the
sake OF being able TO say that the ma
chine procured this appointment Horn
refused to either ask for or accept the
machines Endorsement In one instance
perhaps in others-the application of
the appointee was indorsei by the coun-
" committee.
The president Is not likely TO change
his view Of the practice to be followed
in naming postmasters simply because
senator Hill Is willing 10 retain the
republicans in Office unless the preSi-
dent recognizes him as assistant presi-
dent from New York 1t IS not the
custom of the post office department to
permit the senate 20 sec papers of this
kind However Mr.. Bissell will, as a
matter of courtesy, yield to the demand
and send the papers 10 the senate.
The correspondent says the threat
ened war has begun in earnest.

Blount TO Honolulu and gave him his
orders TO pull down the flag at once, he
would have thought of the talk it would
