dent of the board nearly half of that
period. In March, 1859, Mr. Hoar was ap-
pointed attorney general of the United

office until June, 1870. He was appointed
member of the joint commission which
negotiated the treaty between the United

His Accounts Said 20 be Short.

BURLINGTON, N. j., Feb 1.-For some
time past the postoffice authorities have
been at work overhauling the accounts of
exPostmaster Samuel Phillips, and have
at last discovered, it is said, that els over
$1,000 short, which his bondsmen have
been called upon TO make good. Mr..
Phillips is unable to say what he has done
with the money, and says he had no knowl-
edge of the fact that any deficiency existed,
as he had supposed his accounts were all
right. Mr.. Phillips is now engaged in the
shoe business here.

Old Families.

The most ancient family in France, in
so far as the tracing back of the ancestry
In an unbroken line is concerned, is the
royal house of Bourbon, which goes back
to Robert 10 Fort, in the year SOL Next
IN point of antiquity comes the Rohan
family, which for the last century, how
ever, has been settled in Austria, the so
called Rohans in France being not really
Rohans but merely Chabots, their only
connection with the house of Rohan bel !
by marriage.
Then comes the house of Narbonne-
Pellet, the head of which is tho Due de
Narbonne, who can trace his lineage back
without interruption to the year 910. OF
course, in making this assertion, do not
take into consideration the somewhat
mythical claim of the Duke of Lewis Mire-
polk to he descended in a direct and un.
broken line from Jacobs son, Levi He
has among his family pictures one old
painting in which the Holy Virgin is rep
resented as requesting the former Duke of
LeVis-MirepoiX to put on his hat, which
he had doffed in salutation, she being de-
picted as uttering the words Couvrez
vous, mon cousin" Another picture rep
resents an ancestor of the dukes of Lewis
Mirepoix navigating small boat on the
waters of the deluge, he being too exclu-
sive and high toned to share the ark with
the Noah family and it's belongings.-Chi-
cago Record.

THEY WE'RE JUST TOO MEAN.

This Was the Trouble About Jim and NIyra
and the Gloomy Girl In Red.
THE world is hollow, remarked the
girl in red
1t is, " gloomily assentcd the girl whose
new gown does not fit, but l don't see
how you ever found it out"
BY accident dear. 1t happened the
day after the cards were sent out. had a
note from Dan saying that he must see
me once more before l was Jim's wife OF
course l didn't really care for Dan, but it
is soothing TO ones vanity to know that
the best man Is dying of envy of the bride
groom, who has no idea of it.
$50 you said you would see himP"
II did. / felt that it would do Jim no
harm IL Dan did tell me once more that
life was a blank without me, and 1t was
really my last chance too. Still l didn't
dare to let him come to the house."
But where else could you see himp"
"At Myra's She is to be maid of honor,
you know, and Jim used to be quite devot-
ed to her. so l knew she'd never dare to
tell on me lest people would think her
jealous"
when 1 want advice, shall know
where to come for it,.
VERY well, do Well, didn't send her
word that 1 was coming, for didn't want
anything down on paper. AS luck would
have it, just rs [ was starting Jim sent up
box of roses and a melancholy note say
ing that a business engagement he couldn't
shirk would prevent him from coming up
that evening"
You were in luck"
So thought Well, just threw my
self on Myra's mercy. She wasn't a bit
pleased, as / could see but she submitted
with the best grace she could. She said
she would keep everybody out of tho Ii.
brary SO we could have a long, quiet even
ing, and not to worry about her as SIZE
would probably have company.
"That was nice of her. "
ooh, very nice Dan came early, and
we had perfectly lovely time He begged
me to elope the day before the wedding.
/ recited two poems about his despair and
hinted at suicide. Oh it was Splendid l
cried myself almost to a jelly. At about
half past 10 l really couldn't stand it any
longer, so 1 told Dan that we must go in
and speak to Myra for the front paror
was so quiet that her caller had evidently
failed TO come So, after another eternal
farewell, we went in"
"Well9"
1T wasn't well-it was ill Myras
caller was there. He was Jim. He was
holding her hand and bidding her goodby

Has Received No Letter Asking for His
Resignation.
A Washington telegram announcing
that Secretary Harmon had requested
Judge Scott to resign because Scott
had simply shown letter from Har-
mon, exonerating him from all
charges, created much comment
The most persistent inquiry, how
ever, failed to verify the report in the
remotest degrees, no one seeming to
know anything about it. Judge Scott,
himself, was all at sea and stated that
no such intimation had reached him.
He was on the bench all of yesterday
and transacted business in his usual
manner, giving no indication of worry
or feeling over the matter. 1t will
not pay you, therefore, to wager any
thing on the strength of the report.
Too many such reports have come from
time TO time, and all proved fakes.

Animal Fur.

Fur is a thread-like fiber which
grows out of the pores of the skins OF
animals. 1t grows in length from the
root, and not from the top, as with
vegetable productions. The lower por-
ton merely lengthens out, and the t.
projects forward, consequently, if once
cut, it will always remain blunt. t
is tubular and filled with oil, whic =
gives to the fiber its color. In addition
to the oil it contains mineral matter
among which are sulphur and iron. A
close examination Of the fiber WILL te
a certain extent, show the section of the
country the animal inhabits. The short
and crisp, with an oval or angular
cross section, indicates tropical growth;
the long and soft, with circular cross
section, Northern climate. The fibers
from different structure and value,
that which is taken from the back of a
land animal being the finest, while the
reverse is true Of the animal which
confines itself mostly to water. he
belly being much finer than the back
