Postmaster-General Bissell few weeks
ago announced that fourth-ciass postmasters
would not be removed except for cause,
although they had served four years.
This ruling necessitated the filing OF
charges of offensive partisanship" against
those holding on, and so much time was
required to examine the charges, the order
has been revoked. No charges are neces-
sary, when a fourth-class postmaster has
served four years, and he will be replaced
when proper Democrat is certified as his
successor. All others might as well resign,
as a clean sweep is to be made. They can
save themselves from removal by resigning-
The verdict last November was for CON-
plete change, and was the third successive

Lizzie Borden, on trial at New Bedford,
Massachusetts, for the murder of her
father and step-mother, receives no femi-
nine sympathy Very few women attend
the sessions of the court, aud when she
tainted no female went to her assistance.
If man were on trial female sympathy
would show itself by crowds of women at
the trial and showers of flowers to the ac-
cused. And it seems the more shocking
the murder, the deeper is female sympathy
"a sympathy that partakes of affection
and transforms the criminal into hero

1ooo-Mile Ride in the Saddle.

A wonderful horse race began on Tuesday.
A band of shouting, shooting, devil-defying
COW boys started from Chadron, a post town
in Nebraska, some 400 miles from Omaha, to
race to Buffalo Bills camp at the World S
Fair grounds, 1000 miles away. They ride
without change of horses, and the man who
first looks upon Buffalo Bills curly locks will
win fame and gold.
The most interesting part of it all is that
there is a woman in the race, young, plump,
good looking woman, known throughout the
West for her daring horsemanship and her
interchangeable energy. Her name is Miss
Emma Hutchinson, or, as Cy Warman would
