WAR MEMORIES REVIVED.
Germany to Celebrate Her Victories
Over France.

A Berlin cablegram runs: Fol-
lowing the celebration of the 25th
anniversary of the declaration of
war by Prussia against France on
July 10, 1870, the program Of the
fetes in commemoration of the
Franco-German war includes the
celebration of every great German
victory, and every other great &C.
curence connected with the war, be-
ginning with the celebration of the
bloody battle at Wissenberg, on
August 4th, and ending with a
grand jubilation on the anniver-
sary Of the battle of Sedan, on
September 1st. Large bodies of
veterans will go to Wissen-
berg, on the Bavarian from
tier of Alsace, to take part
in the anniversary ceremonies
there, aud will afterward proceed
to the different battlefelds for the
purpose of reviving old memories.
August IA and 10 will be observed
practically as decoration days on
the fields of Gravelotte, st. Privat
and Mars-la-Tour, when the graves,
tombs and monuments of the Ger
mans who fell on these fields will
be covered with flowers and
wreaths by their families and sur
viving comrades. A congress of
the various veterans unions will
be held at Strasburg during the
fetes commemorating the fall of
that city, when bronze medals
struck from the French cannon
which were captured there will be
given to the veterans on behalf of
the War Office.

III Made Riu1 Tired.

"Fellows do get a little lazy in
the government service" said the
lean man with the yellow vest,
"but I do think that the man who
complained when pay day was
changed from once every quarter
to once every month rather over
did the thing"
"What was the kicking about !"
asked the fat man.
"Said it made him tired to draw
his salary so often"

MORE LIFE FOR BAT SHEA.
Final arsument on the Troy Politf-
cal Murder Pestponed.

ALBANY, April %, 1S95.-The argument
in the appeal in the case of BAT" Shea
was set for today before the Court of
Appeals Shea is confined in Clinton
Prison, awaiting electrocution for the
murder of Robert Ross at the spring
election in Troy a year ago.
Galen r. Hit of this city and Assem-
blyman John 7. Norton of Troy are
Shea's counsel. Mr.. Norton appeared
before the Court this morning and stated
that the defence was not prepared to
go on He said that Mr.. Hit. who was
the senior counsel in the case, had not
prepared for argument before the Court
of Appeals, for the reason that there
were no funds at the disposal of de-
fendants counsel for the expenses OF
the appeal, and he himself had been
busy with his legislative duties.
Mr.. Norton filed an affidavit with the
Court stating the reasons for the de-
and he asked that argument be postpon-
ed.
George Raines of Rochester and Dis
trict Attorney Pagan of Rensselaer, coun-
ty, who appeared for the. people, opposed
delay, claiming that the attorneys for the
defence had ample time to prepare their
arguments.
The Court took the matter under imme-
diate consideration, saying that While
they thought there should be no delay
in such. a, case of public moment, the
defence should have ample time in which
to prepare their case The Court there
upon entered an order setting the case
term. and on the suggestion Of counsel,
the date was set for May 30.

POST OFFICE MUDDLEs.
Ocean Grove and Orange Ofaces Eeing
Conxiaered al Washington.

WASHINGTON April %, 1896. The
ngnt over the Ocean Grove post Office
still continues. As is well known there
has been for some time past an effort on
the part of the Post Office Department
to consolidate the ocean Grove and the
Asbury Park post offices, on the ground
that it would be more economical and
more satisfactory. This view of the
case, however has been strongly COM
batted by the residents of the Grove
who claim that the post Office at the
Grove is necessity There being still
some possibility chat the consolidation
would be made. a delegation from the
Grove went to Washington yesterday
and had conference with the Post
master General. In the party were
Messrs. Thompson, Buchanan, McCabe
and others. and it is quite likely that,
as the result of their arguments, the
present situation will remain
The delegation wanted a free delivery
service at the Grove, but this will not
be granted

Although the Republican postmaster at
Freehold was appointed on April 8, 1891,
more than four years ago. he is to be
allowed to remain in office, until next
January, for he was not confirmed by the
Senate until January. 1892. Under the
rule OF the Postoffice Department, inau-
gurated by the late Postmaster General,
the four years term is regarded as com

The Freehold postmaster will. therefore,
