NO OPPOSITION.
Presidential Appointments Have An Bees Co.
frned BY the Seaafe.

WASHINGTON. April 1.-THE special ses-
xioe jast ended was notable for the fact
that no one Of the presidents nominees
was objected to with the exception Of the
nomination Of Eckies. which was con
firrned without even a call of the ayes and
naysand in which the objection was solely
due TO the nominees lack of banking ex-
peEience.
There was no attempt even made to re-
ject any of the persons nominated The
friction which il has been s:sid existed BE-
tween the administration and the Demo
cratic senators was not apparent in any
thing that occurred during the session. A
great many important places in the gov
eminent yet remain untitled. but none Of
them are such rs to make confirmation a
necessity in advance of assumption Of
Office.
Almost score of foreign missions are
still held by the Republican ineumbents,
the most important being Russia, Italy,
Hawaii and Hayti In the treasury de-
partment Assistant Secretary Spalding's
successor has not been named; also the
TWO eomptrollers and number of bureau
chiefs, of whom some stand a good chance
of being permanently retained
In the war department Secretary Lamont
has not yet selected his assistant secretary.
Postmaster General Bissell has been so
hesieged over positions that he has been
able to give but little time to other places.
Secretary Smith has pretty well cleaned
up the presidential appointments in his
department. Outside Of these depart
ment> Civil Service Commissioner Roose-
velt's successor and the successor to Pub
lie Printer Palmer are the most important
places to he filled in the near future. Mr..
Roosevelt is anxious to BE- permitted TO re-
tire, aud Mr. Palmer will will not be dis
turbed until his term expires in May.

Odds and Ends.

The article in the JorRSAl concerning
the proposed formation of two u company
regiments excited considerable comment
among those interested in militia matters
One of these, who is opposed to such an
attempt set forth his reasons very strongly
He didn't, however, believe in attempting a
muster this year but he laid great stress on
what he considered true that the State
under the new law or any other the State
would willingly pass could not suitably
provide for - company regiments.
It's surprising how many have discovered
since Saturday morning when Gilbert Quay
rescued two men in boat from going over
the dam, that it is perfectly safe to go over
the dam and that anyone could have done

This well-known but intensely interesting
play, The Stowaway," was admirably put
on at the Opera house last evening. The
cast was strong one. Twice the players
were called before the curtain, the villain
was roundly Kissed and the hero and hero
inc and those who took prominent part in
their behalf and in foilipg the villain were
tumultuously appauded on both occasions.
The sensational features of the play were
strongly brought out, and the yacht scene
was very realistic
