This Postmaster Won't Get out.

There is man at Mount Tabor who
thinks he is bigger than old Cleveland"
He is the postmaster, who holds the fort
nspite of the appearance of Miss Thayer
with her commission. Miss Thayer got
her commission Saturday, with orders
to take possession. On Tuesday she pre-
sented her commission and proposed to
take charge, but Mr.. Brubaker refused
to turn over the Office, ON the ground
that she was going to remove it to an
other place, and a remonstrance against
such removal was in circulation. Again
on Wednesday Miss Thayer went in and
demanded the Office. He then said he
would turn it over as soon as he could
complete the inventory ond would be
ready Thursday morning; but on Thurs
day he refused to turn it over at all, and
so the matter stands.-Portland Orego-

II it were not that the elections were
coming on in France and that no French
ministry dare ask for q heavy grant of
money and 5000 troops for q Tonquinese
expedition, we should think the situa-
ton very serious indeed. Siam might
be struck to the ground in six weeks.
The French do not, it is true, do this
kind of work as well as we do, for their
conscripts die like flies, and their col
ored troops are liable to panics, but there
Is no solid strength whatever to support
the Siamese throne. There is an army,
but it will not beat even if it will face
French regulars. 1t has been organized
i'll imitation of European plans, which
means that it has lost its national
strength without gaining strength from
science, and it has no tested leaders to
whom it is devoted. 1t will be beaten
we may be sure if the hour of conflict
arrives and the war is really waged with
France, and of popular instruction
there is but slender hope. The court
of Siam once beaten will submit, as the
court of Hue did, and thenceforward
everything will go ON smoothly, with a
French resident as virtual king of Siam.

Some words to u Preacher.

God himself cannot mako world in which
tho saurian exists side by side with man. Sau-
rians are the best possible forms Of life at ono
stage, yet impossible at the next.-Baccalau-
reate Sermon of Rev. DR.. Rainsford of Now
York Before the Harvard Graduating Glass,
Juno Is.
Here is an error. For man can exist
side by side with the saurian, and there is
scientific ground for believing that he
was contemporary of saurians which
became extinct ages upon ages ago.
What we chiefly desire to say at this
moment, however, is that we object to
the habit in which many preachers, in
Guiding DR.. Rainsford, indulge Of telling
their hearers that "God himself cannot"
do something or other. There is no NOR
tai who knows of the divine power or
who can form any conception Of it. 1t
is infinite and eternal, words which are
beyond the comprehension of the human
intellect. BY looking through o tele-
scope DR.. Rainsford may behold Some Of
the works of God which he cannot COM
pass with reason or imagination, and he
need not look beyond the earth upon
which he treads to behold others more
than can be numbered. But even with
those instruments that search the heav-
ems and the earth man can form no idea,
gain no knowledge Of the divine power.
1t was Zophar, the Naamathite, WHO,
in ancient times, put to Job that solemn
question, "Canst thou by searching find
out Gods" And again: High as heaven,
what canst thou do? Deeper than hell,
what canst thou know? Vain man would
be wise, though he be born like wild
ass colt"
We regard it as irreverent in the ex-
IRENE for any man to say, "God cannot"
The words are blasphemous.-New York

PITTsBURG, Sept. 11.--Alfred Benedict

WEAVER WAS THE THIEF.
Mrs. Stafford Recovers Part of tho S3al
Stolen From Her.

Mrs. Stafford Recovers Part OF the S345
Stolen From Her.
Henry Weaver, an aged white man,
who was arrested several days ago for
stealing s345 from Mrs. Cora Stafford,
wife Of Lawyer J. L. Stafford, of the
firm of Brand & Stafford, was tried yes-
terday morning by Judge Turner at the
police court and sent on the grand jury.
The money which was stolen com
prised six $50 bills, SEQ bill and S25 in
8 nall currency. Mrs. Stafford sus.
p,cted Weaver at the time of the theft
which occurred the first of pril last,
but as she had no positive evidence he
was not arrested. He was very closely
watched though, and when it became
known that Weaver had been spending
money very fast at his home in the
Back creek country, Mr.. Stafford had
search warrant issued, which was exc.
cuted by the deputy, A. s. Tice.
He found at Viewers house four
pocketbooks containing about $50 Since
the time of the theft he had bought
horse from Mr.. Ray, and other things to
the value OF about $50. These facts lead
to his arrest the LIST of September and ut
his trial yesterday morning, the evidenc
being very strong, the case ended with
the above-named:result. Bail was fixed
in the I'M of 81, 600 but as he was I'M
al le to 6 We 1t, he was remanded to Jail.

Nntiona1nureau of Health.

The move of the New York Academy
of Medicine for the establishment of a
national bureau of health is matter of
more than ordinary interest and impor-
lance.
The view taken by this representative
medical body of the metropolis is that
the public health Is national affair, to
be dealt with by the nation rather than
the several states, and q matter which
calls for the services of physicians rather
than politicians
This view has been embodied in bill
which takes quarantine entirely out of
state control and politics and vests it in
federal administrative board of medic
al men. The bill is to be presented to
congress when it next meets, and its
enactment will be urged, not only by the
academy of this city, but also by coop
Grating medical societies throughout the
country
Menaced as the nation may be at any
time by cholera or some other epidemic,
it would seem to be but thepart of COM
mon prudence to have the most efficient
and effective quarantine system that can
be devised. 1t cannot be claimed with
any force that we have such system
now. The law passed last winter was
compromise. The quarantine established
by it is a hybrid affair.-New York Her

NO MURDER AT ALL,

Robert Mills and Lucy Jones, Both Col
ored, Had Little Falling Out.
The inhabitants of the extreme north
eastern portion OF the city in the Sec
ton on Ninth and Tenth avenues knwon
in local parlance as "possum trot," were
aroused last night by the alarm that
murder had been committed and in
short time the nelghborhood was in a
state Of considerable excitement Tie
story was to the effect that Robert
Mills, young colored man. had killed
Lucy Jones young woman of the same
hue, by cutting her throat from ear to
ear. Several police officers and large
number of citizens mostly colored, be-
gan to search for the body but neither
the man nor the woman could be found
AS nearly as can be ascertained the
facts are that Robert, who is generally
credited with being Lucy's lover, had
ordered her, under penalty OF death, to
keep away from the house of Henry
Alexander, on lions hill, and last
night aboutS o'clock, on finding she was
there, started out with knife and a
picket from fence in his hands swear.
ing he wonld have her life's blood.
He came to .Alexanders house, called
her out and ran with her into the
street, where he knocked her down with
the picket, swore at her considerably
and made her walk away with him. The
