turned home in usual health few weeks be-
fore his death, when he was suddenly attacked

One of the last of Napoleon's veterans,
and naturally one of the very few sur
vivors among the officers of the Grand
Armee, has celebrated his ninety
seventh birthday in his retreat at
Herblay, on the banks of the Seine.
NJ. Soufflot, who is extremely popu-
lar in that part of the country,
loves to fight his battles over again. He
took part in the campaigns Of 1879 and
the three following years, and before Ma
poleon went to Elba he was promoted to
the rank Of captain.
He was a stanch i~mperialist, and after
the downfall of his hero he refused to
serve under any other regime, and was
put upon half pay, but he emerged for a
short time from his retirement to COM
mand a squadron of lancers of the Old
Guard at Waterloo. After the final col
lapse Of the emperor he left the army for
good, at the age of 22, and spent the fol-
lowing half century of his life in civil
employment. He then pitched his tent, y
to use his expression, at Herblay,
where he is held in high esteem for his
many acts of kindness. NJ. Soufiot is
said to be the doyen of the members OF
the Legion of Honor.-London Tele-

After a tough three hours struggle
with death John Opfer came out ahead,
and he was full of joy. Opfer is an EN-
ploye of the West Jersey Ferry com
pany, and is fond of skating. He was
enjoying this exhilarating sport on the
Delaware at tine head of Third street,
between the Camden shore and Petty's
island, Saturday, when he struck a weak
spot in the ice and broke through. The
current dragged him down and he be-
came benumbed.
When he arose to the surface Opfer
was in the midst of the broken ice float
ing rapidly up stream, and he made a
frantic effort to save himself. He seized
several cakes of ice, but they sank I'M
der his weight and sent him again and
again beneath the surface. He cried
loudly for help, but he was SO far from
either shore and tho floating ice was SO
heavy hat no one dared to attempt his
rescue.
At last Opfer, his strength almost
gone, managed to climb upon an ice Hoe,
where he fell exhausted. His struggles
had been witnessed by two men on Pet
tvs island, and as the foe drifted up
toward the point they pushed off in
their boat at the risk of their own lives,
and pulled the unconscious Opfer off the
ice.
After a hard fight the boatmen man
aged to make the island again, and they
carried Opfer into the little dwelling
house that stands there. He had been
struggling with ice for an hour, and
gave no sign of life when efforts to re-
suscitate him began. After two hours
hard work, however, Opfer opened his
eyes, and at last was brought out of
deaths grasp entirely.
Il thought l was a goner, sure
enough" said Opfer yesterday, when l
found myself banging away at those
cakes of ice. Geerozalum, but l was
coldl Then all of a sudden got warm
and coy and settled down for a nap.
Myi but it was nice till those men on the
island woke me up" Philadelphia

A POLITICAL REMOVAL.
La Oranges Postmaster Given the
Grand Bounce.

Mr.. s. J. Robb of La Grange spent
yesterday in the city. Mr.. Robb has
been until recently postmaster at La
Grange, having taken the office at the
general solicitation of most of the people
in the vicinity. When he accepted the
place Mr.. Robb at his own expense paid
for special service to the Office for some
until regular service could be established.
No fault has ever been found by the pat
rons OF the office as TO the manner in
which it has been conducted. and while
there was no honor and less profit in the
position Mr.. Robb naturally thought he
would hold on to the Office "a long as he
wished. But he is a Democrat and while
net a partisan has never con-
cealed the fact of his political faith.
The Republican workers of the district
determined to have him removed. In a
very quiet way they secured a few signers
to a petition asking to have MI. Robb
removed and Mr.. d. f. Brown ap-
pointed in his stead. The petition would
probably have had no weight with the
postofice department but the petitioners
called in the aid of Senator Warren and
with his influence in the department the
change was made. 1t is probably the first
instance in Wyoming OF a postmaster
at a fourth class office being removed for
political reasons.

Ex-Governor Charles H. Bell has re-
stored to the First Congregational church
Of Exeter, N. H., a valuable record book,
discovered by him in the shop of a local
dealer in antiquities. 1t is a small man
uscript volume containing a record Of
the 727 baptisms administered by the
Rev. Woodbridge Odlin between Sept.
%, 1743, and Oct. 80. 1888. The book
also contains a few miscellaneous items.
Of which this is the most important:
"Nov'r 1S, 1865. About four o'clock
in we morning there was a smart shocke
of an earthquake, which was followed
with several smaller shockes, to the
great surprise of many. God grant vt
ye impressions vt were made upon We
minde of many might be abiding"
The handwriting is handsome and
very legible, and the book is remarkably
we'll preserved. 1t fills an important gap
in the early records of the church. whose
age is coincident with that of the town.

Parks Probably Coming.

There Is a pretty straight rumor that
Superintendent Parks of the Nebraska
division will move his headquarters from
North Platte, Neh., to Cheyenne, where
they properly belong.
The Cheyenne & Northern now belongs
to the Nebraska division and Cheyenne is
the more central point for the headquar-
ers- This change. il made, will bring the
entire force of train dispAtchers and clerks
here and greatly facilitate the transaction
of business over the Cheyenne & North

A MATTER OF PIN MONEY.

Every wIru should Have an Allowance
to lie Used at Discretion.
The secret u%nhappiness which is caused
10y the tRct that wives are Obliged to 20 to
their lords for whatever money they need.
instead of having a fixed allowance paid
them at stated times, i one OF those things
which arise from lie thougltlessness OF
men, and vet 1t is one OF the most fruitful
CAUSES of disagreement which exists. The
lack OF some such arrangement as this has
brought many r couple to the divorce
court; and it is to be questioned whether
1t would not be well for moralists to make
a point of the establishment of a liked pro
portion of a husbands income as one of
the essentials of marriage.
There Is in this country a f~eeling-not as
rational as some popular ideas-that to
have marriage settlements is cold blooded
and argues a lack OF sentiment. Ameri-
cans are at once the most hard headed and
most sentimental people in the world, and
despite the prosaic teudeucies OF the age
we have in this country contriyed to keep
a certain naive sentiment in regard to mar
riage. There is something of the simplici-
ty and sentiment OF the peasant folk in the
way we look upon marriage. To have any
f~orethought in the matter is popularity
held to argue a cold and calculating atti-
tude toward one who should be all or can
be nothing. The idea Of the marriage set

CATTLE THIEF KINGEN.
The Governor of Nebraska Asks 10
some Information About Him.

oome Ofmdt ABOUT HIM.
Governor Barber yesterday received a
communication from Governor Boyd of
Nebraska for information concerning the
case of VIM. Kingen. a citizen of Ne
braska, convicted here of stealing Wyom-
ing cattle. 1t will be remembered that
it was shown at the trial that Kingen was
brought here by force without a requisl-
ton. and while the testimony against him
was overwhelming his kidnapping was re-
garded as an Infringement of the consti.
t%utionAl rights of the prisoner. The
matter was laid before Governor Boyd by
Kingen's attorney, but from the lone OF
the Nebraska executives communication
he does not seem to be profoundly i'm
pressed with the case. He politely asks
Governor Barber for information CON
corning the man and the alleged facts in
the case and desires to be supplied with
any documents which may have a bearing
in the matter. He makes no demand for
the return of the prisoner.
Governor Barber referred the matter to
Attorney General Potter. who will pre-
sent a report for the information of the
governor of Nebraska.

A CHANGE FOR THE BETTER.
Division Superintendent and Motive
Power Men In Better Quapters.

Superintendent Wurtele's force once
again occupies the offices in the east end
of the depot building which were origin
ally assigned to them upou the completion
Of that structure. While the headqusr-
ters of the motive department we're being
constructed these offices we're turned over
to that department and the superlnten-
dents forces were consigned to cramped
quarters on the slme floor. The motive
power men have now got into their hand
some new quarters which they will occupy
jointly with Superintendent of the Shops
Barnum. These furnish admirable office
apartments
The offices lately occupied by Superin-
tendent Wurtele's forces will again be oc-
cupied by the Union Pacific telegraph
operators leaving the present overcrowded
office to the Western Union operators.
The change is a good one all around as
it gives enough elbow room to all con-
cerned to properly transact business.
