The Twining Post Once.

the Twining postmastership Is out of
joint. This Office has commonly had some
knots in It. and it's way has been no
smoother than the course of true love is
said to be. 1t was established about two
years ago. Merchant Bradbury was APP
pointed postmaster.
AS there seemed to be more work than
wages incident to the place IL is said that
Postmaster Bradbury quit. Then the mail
service was irregular or not at all. Some
time ago several ladies' in the neighborhood,
II Is said. urged the appointment of Mrs
SINNERS as postmistress
Mrs SINNERS Is a republican and Il was
noised around that contingent of Prince
Georges county democrats had called on
the fourth assistant postmaster general
and opposed the appointment on political
grounds. This could not be verified at the
department. Certain IL is though that a
vigorous kick Is now being made at the
department against Mrs. SINNERS and by
some Of those who a short time ago were
loudest in the singing of her praises.

Chief Clerk

Ch1ef Clerk OF the Document Room.
Mr.. George Sawter of Stamford, Conn, has
been reappointed to his position as chief clerk
of the document room Of the House at 81, 800
per year.
Against Mr.. Geissenhainer.
Mr.. Crisp continues to maintain an eloquent
silence as to the organization Of the House
committees, and this lets loose unlimited gossip,
much Of it probably baseless.
The possibility that Representative Geissen-
hainer Of New Jersey may be appointed chair
man Of the House committee on immigration.
which position was held by Commissioner
stump in the Fifty-second Congress, has de-
veloped strong opposition from the various
labor organizations. Herman Schulteis, who
was one of the commissioners sent abroad bv
President Harrison to investigate the immigra-
ton question, assisted by other representatives
Of productive labor. is making u thorough can
vass of the House. urging members to file pro-
tests with Speaker Crisp against the selection
of Mr.. Gessenhainer. 1t is alleged by Mr..
Schulteis that Mr.. Geissenhainer Is so strongly
in sympathy with the Russian Jews who seek
admission into the United States, being de-
barred from settlement in the various European
countries. as to prevent him from being an i'm
partial judge as to the qualifications or arriving
immigrants.

What's the Row AbOutf


From the Chicago Record.
The cutlery that has all at once been
raised against certain dances done in Mid

was told during the progress OF the famous
Beecher trial years ago one afternoon a
shrewd-faced little woman, en- route from
the court room. got into a Broadway stage.
She was so full of the trial that she could
think of nothing else. and presently she
turned and asked the elderly gentleman
who sat beside her reading a newspaper:
do you believe Mr.. Beecher is guilty.
The question occasioned quite a sensation
in the stage coach but the elderly gentle
man did not lose his presence of mind.
Raising his eyes from the newspaper and
looking sternly and steadfastly at his fem
mime ques;ioner. he stopped all further in
quiry by coldly asking: Guilty, madam

Hit and MISS.
In the gay metropolis of our country,
I notice that a wealthy young woman,
whose husband is many times million
aire, has been buying up something like
thousand flower pots with little plant
in each for distribution among, the poor.
What godsend such a gift must be to a
body that is starving! What a boon to
the little ones who have had nothing,
save crumbs, to eat for month! Verify,
the Sages and the Goulds have q myster-,
ious way in which their wonders to per-
form. Flower pots for the hungry!
Greenhouse plants to assist the imagg1na-
ton, while the finger tips suffer with
cold!

pessimist by any means, for in this world
I have received more than my share of
Christmas goodness, but the fact is too
apparent to be denied that on Chaistmas

sake of giving too much of outward
sentiment and too little of glow at the
heart. How often do we hear for in
stance such sentences as these: 81 won
der if this will be enough for John?" I
wonder what Mary will give me?' Each
one represents a consideration of the in
trinsie value Of the gift and a desire to
Guido each other in Christmas offerings.
Neither looks upon Christmas as a sea-
son Tor making each other happy without
regard to the value of what is given. For
this reason I have often thought that
Yuletide ought to be left to the little
ones alone those innocent and happy
creatures who take the smallest gift with
