washington. March 1s.--Assstnnt
Postmaster General Jones today order
ed the dismissal OF a letter carrier Mt
Youngstown, Ohio. An inspector had
made a report on the case, and the
carrier was charged with conspiracy
In trying to defeat the order OF the
acknowledgement making regulations
preventing overtime charges. 1t was
learned that the Youngstown carrier
had taken advantage OF leave OF alb
sence to go to Canton and was about to
nerfect an organization OF letter car
rIers so that they would stand by each
other and prevent the discharge of
nny man for any cause whatever. Mr..
Jones says that combinations among
the employees OF this kind will not be
tolerated.

TWO IMPORTANT DECISIONS
Rendered by the United states Court
OF Claims.

Washington. March ,s.-The United
States court VI claims today rendered
two important decisions. In the case OF
the Delaware against the Cherokee
Nation. the original decree declared
the Delawares as adopted citizens, to
have equal rights with the native Cher
okeos in the common property OF the
nation and to be entitled to their pro-
portional part OF a fund of 100000 de-
rived from the public lands OF the ma
tlon. After the case had gone TO the
supreme court the United States pur-
chased the Cherokee outlet and the
Cherokee government distributed &c.
100000 OF the purchase money among
those who We're "Cherokces by blood"
Congress reserved 81 900 for the pro.
lection of the Delawares, Shawnees and
Freedmen OF the nation and to await
the event OF the pending suits. This
case now comes back from the supreme
court with the former decree affirmed
and the court Of claims today extended
It to the new fund derived from the
sale OF the outlet and awarded tho
complainunts, the Delawares. an nddl-
tlonal Judgment OF SlSS. 25i.
In the case OF the Freedmen against
the Cherokee nation. decree was en-
tered for the first time In like manner.
declaring that the cOmplalnants. as
adopted citizens, are entitled under the
Cherokee constitution to share equally
In the common property OF the nation.
As the number Of the Freedmen greatly
exceeds that OF the Delnwares, the
Judgment In this case IL for u large
amount-S90J,i6 5. In each case the
opinion was by Justice Mott.

Phenomenal Artistic Development Of .
Ten-Ysar-Old Alabamian.
Ben Nelson Alexander lives in VAL
Icy Head, Ala. He is 10 years old.
When only years old. when sitting at
the table during meal, he would make
chickens. ducks, pigs, or any familiar
object by rolling the crumbs Of his
bread. His talent increased. and when
old enough to play out of doors he made
things of mud with such astonishing
success that his parents furnished him
with molding clay. His mother allows
him q large room in the upper part of
the house, and he has made all the
principal houses of the town and
placed them in regular streets, as they
appear in the town. Some time ago a
gentleman came to the house, and,
wishing to test his talent, asked him to
make bust Of him. The little fellow
brought chunk of dough" and began
shaping it, never looking at it, but in
the gentleman's face the whole time.
In half an hour he had nodded every
feature, even to a mole on the left ear
and a trihing scar on the neck. He
has busts and some life-sized figures
of prominent men, besides dogs. pigs
and other animals. He has been Of
fered a free scholarship at Cooper

not willing for her little man" to leave

BELGIUM GROWS MORE DRUNKEN.

An Extraordinar Increase i'm the
Consumption of Liquor In Late
Years.
There has been an extraordinay in
crease of late in the consumption Of
alcoholic liquors in Belgium. says the
New York Evening Post. This fact
was brought out very clearly in dis
cussion on the subject which occurred
recently in the chambers. NJ. Lejune,
former minister of Justice, declared
that the nation was reverting to a
new form of barbarism which could
only be described by the term alco-
holic barbarism. From statistics fur.
nished by him, it appears that the
revenue from the excise, which
amounted to 100000 francs in 1851,
has now reached the total of 33,O00.-
600; that during the same period the
number of public houses has increas-
ed from $1,000 to 175,OO0, and that the
annual consumption of spirits is at
the rate Of 12 litres per adult. His
figures show also that from 1851 to
1888 criminality increased at the rate
Of 200 per cent, and insanity at the
rate of 1873 per cent, and that of every
100 deaths among the male portion Of
the community eighty can be traced
to alcoholic causes. NJ. Lejune at
tributes this disastrous state of things
to two causes. The first Is the insult
ficiency of the food procurable by the
working classes and the second the
poisonous quality of the spirits pur.
chased by them.

Cooked In the P.rlor Before the Cue

Cooked In the Parlor Before the Guests
Washington. April 25.-There was a nota:
bic dinner party given at the residence OF
Charles Sumner Hamlin. assistant secretary
of the treasury few days ago, at which
Edward Atkinson of Boston, the famous
social economist who did all the cooking In
the dining room In the presence of his
guests, upon Il stove of his own invenelon,
and the entire cost of the banquet was $2.S
Or twenty cents u plate-without wines, OF
course.
Mr.. Atkinson Is at work these days trying
to solve the problem of cheap living 50
that the expenses Of the working classes
may conform without the sacrifice of health
Dr. comfort to the low wages that he expects
to be the rule In this country when Con
gress adopts his theories of free trade. He
believes that almost every family wastes
half the money spent for food and that dou.
BILE the amount of nourishment can be got
in a much more wholesome form by prop
er selection of their viands and their proper
preparation for the table. To educate the
bulletins of information through the agri.
cultural department, and has invented what
he calls the Aladln stove, which consumes
oil for fuel. and will furnish heat enough to
cook an ordinary dinner for cent or two.
This stove and Its apparatus have been pat.
anted. but the patents have been conveyed
or assigned to The secretary of agriculture,

Some time ago there was dance In
q Canadian settlement for the benefit
of the settlers and their wives, says
Tid-Bits. Most of the married ladies'
had babies with them, whose noisy
perversity required too much attention
to allow the ladies the full swing Of
their souls pleasure in the dance. So
a number Of young men present gal
lantly volunteered to watch over the
refractory infants, SO that their moth
ers could indulge without let or hin
tastic" exercise.
The gallant offer was readily and
confidingly accepted, but no sooner had
the women left their dear charges to
the care Of those mischfevous young
rascals than they commenced suftinS
the infants, changing the clothing and
giving one the apparel Of another, till
all were transmogrified.
The dance and the music continued
to the 1--WE sma' hours" and then it
was time to go home. The lights were
lowered, and each mother hurriedly
took a baby, in the dress of her own,
and started for home, which, in many
instances, was ten or fifteen miles
away.
The following morning there was a
prodigious row in the settlement
Mothers discovered what had occurred.
and then commenced some of the tall
est female pedestrianism on record.
Living as they did. miles apart, 1t re.
uuired two full days to unmix the
babies and as many months to restore
the mothers to their naturally sweet
dispositions Those young men never
venture into that settlement now. 1t

A pretty old fashion, the fashion of
Leech's Punch days, is being revived,
the fashion of white linen cuffs and
collars. Despite all the folded satin
collars and rosettes and ruches, and
bands of tailor-made gowns which
formed a hard and fast line of color
round the neck, ones soul wearied for
just that little white edging, finishing
off the dress, and looking SO dainty and
neat, which is now reserved for the
nurses uniform. A clean collar, bit
of turned down spotless muslin or lin
en-, formerly gave the exact touch to q
lady's dress which the we'll brushed
silk hat gives to the gentleman's now.
But by degrees these prejudices were
swept away with the fashion of caps
for young matrons; we grew accus-
toned to the unfinished appearance Of
gown without a tucker, we even
learned to associate 1t with an idea Of
smartness, end now our hardly earned
ideas must be dispelled. and we are
ordered to return to the era Of collars.
Already neat little collars of muslin,
edged with lace, have made their ap-
pearance in the dressmakers' shops.

THE KINEroPHoNE.

llr. Edison Il Now Experimenting On
Life-sixe Figures.
The kaleidoscope is the name decided
upon by Thomas A. Edison for his Ia
test contrivance. 1t is a combination
Of the we'll known kaleidoscope and
phonograph. and it gives sound as well
as action. The new machine resembles
the kinetoscope closely, with the addi-
tion of rubber tubes and ear pieces by
means of which the voices Of the SUBJ
jects shown may be heard. The mat
ter of combining the two machines
was. according to Mr.. Edison, very
simple, the only obstacle being to get
them to work in perfect accord. That
is, the kaleidoscope and phonograph had
to be started at exactly the same time
or the action and sound would not
come in together. The machine in its
present state Is small, and the pic
lures produced are only the ordinary
small ones of the kaleidoscope. The
problem that Mr.. Edison has now set
out to solve Is the production Of life
sized figures, and he says he will get
the machine in working order in three
months. His idea is to throw the life
sheets by means of the stereopticon,
and to produce the sounds through
trumpets attached to the phonogNph.
In experimenting for the production Of
life-sized pictures many obstacles have
been encountered. The machine re-
quires larger film and more power
full light, and the pictures produced
must be fawless. In the small ma
chimes slight flaws are not noticeable.
but when these pictures are magnifled
500 times to make them life-size, the
of a hairs breath will amount
to an inch when shown on the paper.
The slightest waver will spoil the pic
ture. Mr.. Edison is enthusiastic over
the kinetophone, and he says he will
be able to produce grand opera with 1t.
besides many other things. In fact"
he said to a Sun reporter yesterday,
"the field of usefulness of the kineto-
phone is without limit"
