LETTER no. 81.

It certainly does, for by such life one is
constantly strained in all directions by COM
ing i'll contact with all kind OF people, many
of them being OF an adventurous nature,
drifting about wherever fancy or force Of cir
cumstances may cause them to 20, and often
seeking to destroy rather than TO help build
up that which is good and true.
To those who have not a decided moral and
religious character, the opportunity to build
such upon sare foundation is not very great
at any rate and particularly so when one con-
stantly comes in contact with unscrupulous
and designing men and women. Yet with
strong character formed in the young man or
young woman, he or she may be able 10 over
come the temptations which surround them
and rise above anything that is mean or de-
grading.
Taking this view of the subject, boarding
house life is not desirable. for we pray that

Death Of Sebastian Aman.

The death of Sebastian Aman, the we'll
known restaurant keeper, occurred at his
residence, No. 316 Ninth street, at 4:4O
O'Clock yesterday morning. Mr.. Aman, who
was in his f1fty-seeond year, had been a resi-

when small boy. He was born in Baden,
Germany, and was at one time in the liquor
business on the corner of Eighth and L
streets with the late w. L. Green.
In 1853 he opened his saloon at No. 316
Ninth street, where he was still engaged at
the time of his death. He leaves widow
and two grown children, a son and daugh-
ter. The deceased was a prominent Mason,
member of the Washington Commandery,

rector in the Great Fails lee Company. The

BISSELL WILL SURELY GO.
He Will Probably Retire from the Cabinet
in April.

Although Postmaster General Bissell
declines either to affirm or deny the rumor
that he has decided TO resi- gn, it is never
theless true that without he cfa 1Ges hi
present determination he will retire from
the Cabinet some time in April. What
his reasons are for taking this step cannot
be stated
1t is known, however, that he never
had taste for public office, and now that
the affairs oil tie department are in very
excellent condition, it is understood that
he much prefers to return to Buffalo and
resume his law practice. Mr.. Bissell's
administration of the Post office Depart
ment has been of Ugh order and it is
probable that never before lave the postal
affairs of the country been in a more salts
factory condition.
Mr. Cleveland will part with Mr.. Bissell
with regret, for it is known that their rela-
tions have been for many years of the closest
and most friendly character 1t is not
thought that the question OF Mr.. Bissell's
successor has even been considered by the
President.
