Partisan Persecution.

Office in this city during the administra-
tion of Postmaster Whitcomb and under
the present postmaster, E. A. Grunsfeld,
until few months ago, when he was in
formed that he was removed, says the
Albuquerque Citizen. He appealed the
case to Washington, and under the civil
service rules the charges against him
we're investigated and disproved, and he
was ordered back to his old position. The
only offense that Mr.. Merrill committed,
it tappears, is that of being Republican,
and desire on the part of the post
master to put in his place personal
friend.

HOW TIN SOLDIERS ARE MAIDS.

Those In Turkish or Greek Uniform
Most Popular This Year.
TOY soldiers made of tin or lead,
are Just as great favorites with chill
dren now as they were in the days Of
our grandfathers," said a wholesale
New York dealer. 1.-THE soldiers are
made almost exclusively in Nurem'
berg and Furth, Germany. where clever
artisans are employed by the numer-
GUS manufacturers to design and mold
them. The process Of manufacture Is
interesting. The first step is to make
sketches Of the intended figures. Great
pains are bestowed on them. The best
artists in Germany do not hesitate
when asked to supply models for these
toy soldiers, and in making their draw
ings they have to bear in mind certain
fixed rules. Their sketches must be
colored. They must avoid deep tints
and select only bright. gaudy colOrs.
which children so much prefer. They
must also possess full knowledge OF
the military costumes Of the period to
which the soldier they represents be-
longs. This year the Turkish and
Greek soldiers are the leading favor
ties.
AT Nuremberg and Furth slate
molds are used for the plain figures,
while brass mOlds are employed for
those in relief. The slate for the for
mer is bought at Sonneberg. in Thurin-
gia, and the tin, which Is purchased in
England, Is melted and poured into
them through a small orifice.
1.-The metal soon hardens when it has
been poured in, and the workman then
removes the figures. cutting OF any
excresences which may have been
caused by the molten metal running
over the interstices.
1.-The soldiers then have to be paint
ed, and this Is always done by women,
who work at home, and are given a
certain number Of figures upon a piece
Of wood slit up the center, so as to
hold them in fixed position. When
one side Of the figure is dry the wom-
an turns it round and paints the other
side. Her wages are very poor. The
final process, also intrusted to women,
Is that Of packing the soldiers, which
are placed in boxes Of 80, 60, 100 and
24O pieces. weighing one-eighth. one
quarter. one-half or one pound for the
infantry, and of II. "a. 4S or 96 pieces.
