HE SAYS DEMOCRATIC OFFICE
HOLDERS WILL HAVE TO GO.
CIYIL-SERYICE WILL NOT SAVE THEM.
Mckinley VIII Make no Changes
Until After Tariff Legislation Is
Pnsscd-s. II. Allen May Receive the
GubernntorinI Nomination.

Mr.. Edgar Allan. one Of the Republi-
can leaders in this city, returned last
night from washington, where he has
been for the past week. He hasn't been
to see Mr. Mckinley, but he has seen
and talked with some OF the Presidents
closest friends, and naturally, his con-
versation drifted TO a discussing Of Vlr-
ginia patronage.
The government Offices in this State
were all freely talked about, and con-
siderable gossip concerning the men
who are to nu them was INDUCED In.
Mr.. Allan was met by a Dispatch man
shortly after he arrived in Richmond,
but he wouldn't, Of course. tell what
the big dogs said TO him The reporter
ouizzed him at some length, though,
and brought forth some really interest
ing points.

A Gloversville (N. " correspondent
sends us this from his local Adirondack
paper: Deer are evidently becoming
quite numerous in this vicinity, as two
were recently seen near the Broadal-
bin Railroad, and people on the train
from Worthwhile had an interesting ex-
perience with two of the animals on its
trip to this city this afternoon. The
train had reached a point about half a
mile south Of Cranberry Greek depot
when the engineer saw two deer jump
on the track. After waiting until the
approaching train was within about
100 feet Of them, the deer turned and
ran down the track directly ahead of
the locomotive and maintained that Do
sition for nearly three quarters of a
mile, when they turned and passed in
to a field through an open gate. The
engineer kept the whistle footing con
stantly while the animals were on the
track, and several of the passengers,

repeated alarms, saw the animals In

Ands, they have a very curious way Of
preserving eggs fresh for a consider
able time. A layer Of eggs is placed at
the bottom of q barrel. and ordinary
black treacle Is poured over in sufficient
quantity to cover them. Then another
layer is added, and more treacle, and SO
on till the barrel is full. The idea Is
that an egg can be kept good almost in
definitely IL the air can be prevented
penetrating the porous shell to the con-
tents within. When the eggs have all
been used, the treacle Is given a fresh
boil up and is thoroughly saleable
again. In Northern Russia the farmers
use warm tallOw in precisely the same
way; but this ia said to slightly affect
the flavor Of the eggs.

How Foxes Play pc ..u N.

A fox can play 'possum almost as
well as a 'possum itself. Two cases
are on record of foxes being discover
ed in hen houses. In each case the fox
not only completely deceived the 1nd-
er. but allowed himself to be dragged
out by the brush and thrown down. In
each instance the fox then jumped up
and ran away. Another example Is
that Of n fox which dangled across q
mans shoulder as it allowed itself to
be carried along a road for more than
q mile. At last it bit the man and was
promptly dropped. A cat was observed
to carry q weasel home in Its mouth,
the weasel dangling helplessly. The
door of the house was closed, and the
cat, In conformity with its usual habit,
mewed TO gain admission. To NEW,
however, 1t had to set down the weasel,
which jumped up and fastened on Its
nose.
Thus animals show almost human
shrewdness in protecting themselves.
Most boys would be too much frighten-
ed under similar circumstances to do
anything.

In light and leaf, and heaven and earth;
The windtlowers by the wayside swung,
Words of the music that was sung.
IN all his song the shade and sun ~

Its joy and sorrow were as one,
Its very sadness was but sweet:
He sang of summers yet TO be;
You listened TO his song with me.
The heart makes sunshine in the rain
Or winter in the midst of May,
And though the mavis sings again
His self-same song of yesterday,
I find no gladness in his tone;
To-day listen here alone. I,J,
And even our sunniest moment takes
Such shadows of the bliss we knew
To-day his throbbing song awakes
But wistful, haunting thoughts of yo' ;
Its very sweetness is but sad,
You gave il all the JOY II had.
