LIQUIDS ACCUSATION.
We Says Postal Officials Appointed More
Carriers Than Authorized.


WASHINGTON, Jan. 27.-The house de-
voted another day to the consideration
Of the Indian appropriation bill, most
OF the time being consumed, as on the
two previous days, in discussing ex-
traneous subjects. BY far the most in
teresting feature was the debate on the
question of reducing the mailcarrier
service i'll the large cities, owing to the
failure of the senate to attach the esti-
mated deficiency of 100000 to the
urgent deficiency bill. This subject has
been agitating the metropolitan cities
ever }lck the order was issued for
cutting Gown the force ON Feb. l.
A dez 2 representatives from as many
different cities prot SEED against the
proposed reduction, and urged an i'm
mealase appropriation, when Chairman
Loud OF the Dostoffice committee and
Chairman Cannon of the appropriation
conE1ttee aliayed the wrath of the
members by assuring them that there
was no occasion for alarm; that the
service could not possibly suffer until
June -, before which time there would
be ample opportunity TO pass def
ciency !, - opriation. Mr. Loud used
strong Nord3 in his criticism of the
posto &c department officials, and
promised some interesting disclosures
later on.
Ar. Loud accused the postoffice de-
partment Of appointing more carries
than allowed by law, thus creating a
deficiency.
The motion to strike out the appro-
priation for the Carlisle Indian school
was defeated, after considerable debate
20 to 80. Ten pages Of the bill We're
disposed of. The conference report on
the urgent deficiency bill was adopted.

ssThe Nasty Now and Then"

This is part of one of Sam Jones
talks to the women of Henderson,
Kentucky: ''When God gives a man
wife and six children He has done
great deal for that fellow. But
when He gives him a society woman
and poodle He has thrown off on
him. These society women look up
on children as npisances. | have
had some of the society women shake

Between cutting off the top Of their
dress for the ball room and the bot

women soon have no clothes left. A

say you shouldn't speak that way
before mixed audiences. You old
