PREFACE.

The chief beauty Of this work lies In its lies
and in the extent Of its intellectually. Other
stories may be brighter, broader and better,
but none will be as good. 1t Is a veritable
prize, and when one has won 1t once he will
find he will be the possessor Of q work of wild
and delirious English humor that will last him
through life, and another volume will be I'M
necessary. Georgiana, Harriet, Montana and
G. Rome are not real. Neither Is the Goat.
All the other characters are. This, moro than
all its other charms, like G. Rome's hat, viii be
felt, and will lend additional heftiness to tho
moral.

A DESPERATE FEUD.

One Mans Throat Blashed from Ear to
 Ear All the Parties Arrested and to
 be Arraigned This Evening-It Is Feared
 thst Bloodshed Will Result When They
 Meet in Court.
 ERIE, Pa., July 11.-Edinboro, the seat of the Edinboro State Normal School, was the scene of great excitement last night. News has just been received of bloody battle between the Sweet and Cobb families on one side and the An dersons and McGahans on the other.
 A few months ago Frank Anderson was arrested at the instance of Charles F. Sweet and tried for larceny, but the prosecution failed. Since then an open, warfare has prevailed between the Sweets and the Apdsrsons, and many of Sweets sheep and cattle have been stolen and maimed. SSzza
 Warrants were sworn out, and Erie of hcers started to arrest the Andsrsons. Meanwhile Frank Sweet and Charles W. Cobb moved across the Anderson domain last night and the Anderaons-Frank, Oelos and Rosell-and Ransom MeGahan. another neighbor, opened fire. The fire was returned and the contest was car ried on at long range for some time. The Andersons charged the enemy, and Frank Anderson fell, shot through the heart. After the ammunition was ex- pended, fists, knives and clubs were brought into acquisition.
 When the Erie officers reached the bat tlefield they found Cobb with his throat slashed from ear to ear, but not deep enough to reach the jugular. All the, parties were injured, but Frank Ander- son was the only one whose recovery is in doubt.
 All the parties to the feud are under arrest, and will be arraigned tonight in Edinboro. It Is feared that bloodshed will result from the meeting in Edinboro, as friends are ranging on either side. All the parties engaged are from good fam flies.

A Pretty Young Actress Suing for Dsfama-
 ton of Character.
 NEW YORK, July Il. Miss Mabel Sterl- ing, the pretty young actress, who was requested to give up her rooms and leave the Manha attan Beach Hotel, has begun suit through her attorneys, Howe & Hummel, against Simeon Leland, the clerk of the hotel, for defamation of character. The damages are set at $50, GOO.
 The point Miss Sterling makes is that the clerk held her up to ridictI1e before a large number of men, 1niuring her good name and fame and further causing his cruel utterances to be published in the city of New York and extensively circu- lated throughout the United States of America and the world.
 In conclusion, Miss Sterling says that in consequence of these "false, malicious and defamatory actions of defendants, |" she has suffered great pain and anguish of mind, and was made sick and sore and sustained damages to the sum of $50, 900 and coStsn

A RADICAL CHANGE
The Postofice Department to
 be Reorganized.
SURPRISE FOR OLD EMPLoYEs
The Appointment Division to be Taken
 from the First Assistant.

He VIII Now Become Acting POstmaster-
 General-Changes in the Omcos of the
 Second and Third Assistants--AnOthor
 Report that Secretary Noble Win Re-
 sign to Take a Circuit Court Judgship.
 WASHINGTON. July 1.-The Postof1ce Department is about to have Q cyclonic reorganization. In the first place, and most unexpected, the appointment divis- ion will be taken from the office of the First Assistant Postmaster-Ge General and delivered over bodily to the Fourth As- sistant, whose office was created by law, to take effect July l.
 From the creation of the office of First Assistant Postmaster General until the present the First Assistant has had charge of all appointments of postmast- CTS. There are now upward of 63, 900 fourth-class postofices, giving employ ment to upward of 150, 900 persons, exclu- sive of the star route employees who serve those offices with mail.
 The oldest employees of the department are surprised over the severance of the appointment division from it's moorings in the First Assistant Postmaster-Gen- erals office. It is 8 radical move to make, they say.
 The First Assistant Postmaster Gen. eral must cease to be the headsman. He must be acting Postmaster-G General 8 great deal of the time. He must be able to receive the overflow of the daily throngs of visitors to the Postmaster General, and must have authority to at tend to his business. In order to do this he must be freed from the drudgery and toll of examining fourth-claAs postoff1ce cases for appointment, changes of site, allowances for rent, fuel, light and clerk hire. He must be freed from the annoy ances of the free delivery system, which, as it grows in extent, grows in trouble rather than in grace.
 The First Assistant Postmaster-Gen- eral will thoroughly understand the pol icy of the administration and the meth ods of the Postmaster-G General, and then he will go ahead without detailed in structions.
 The chief clerk of the department will report to the First Assistant upon all matters of departmental business, in stead of, as heretofore, taking up the time of the Postmaster General with pet ty details.
 Other changes will occur in the offices of the Second and Third Assistants Post master General, which, taken as a whole, will make an almost entirely new depart ment of that executive branch of the government.
