Gen. French thanked the troops on
the field, especially mentioning Col.
Ian Hanilton's splendid handling OF

exaggerated.

Another Cabinet once Planned.

A special from Washington says that
President Mckinley will, it is ex-
pected, devote considerable attention
in his forthcoming annual message to
another executive branch of the gov
eminent, with a cabinet officer at its
head, to have charge OF interstate and
foreign commerce. 1t seems to be
pretty well settled that n recommend
alton will be made for a new depart
ment OF commerce, but its full scope is
still matter for discussion and will
probably not be decided until various
subordinate officials of the government
have submitted the data which they
have been requested TO furnish and
there has been general exchange oil
views around the cabinet table.

Creeping sandals to be worn over
baby shoes to protect the toes while
in the house are welcomed by mothers.
They not only save the little shoes
from so frequent repairing, but keep
them in condition for street wear
longer, and save changing every time
the child is taken out. Children's shoes
to cure the turning in of toes or ankles
and others to straighten bow legs, are

Political Assessments Forbidden.

The acknowledgement has issued
formal warning to all postmasters
against the levying of political assess
ments, and simultaneously the civil
service commission has called attention
to the law governing the subject, and
of the commissions intention to en-
force it. This general warning is
similar TO that issued heretofore prior
to political campaigns, and, it is I'M
derstood, follows complaints of specific
violation of the law received from
Ohio and other states, where elections
are to be held this year. A notice has
also been promulgated, to be posted in
all postoffices, directing employees that
they are not obliged to make contribu-
tions for political purposes, and will
not be molested or Disseminated
against for failure to so subscribe OF
