Jacob Nathan, a well-knOwn clothier

cot in the store, listening for every
sound, and with a revolver close al
hand. This so preyed upon him that
his mind gave way.

wording. Heretofore all stamps for the
Centennial the Columbian and the
Omaha. Exposition, were distinguished
from the ordinary stamps only by pic
lures. The wording was precisely SIM
liar on the special and regular issues.
With the idea OF making the Pan-Amer-
ican Exposition series commemorative
OF the exposition, Third Assistant Post
master-General Madden desired TO nave
the words "Pan-American Series, 1871
printed on the stamps. The question
was referred to Assistant Attorney
General for the Post Office Department
Tyner, who to-day rendered an opin-
ion in which he held that the printing
of the reference To the Pan-Ameriean
Exposition would be contrary 60 the
statutetwhich was adopted to prevent
the printing of advertisements on
stamps. AS the exposition was moi
conducted by the government nut DS
an exposition company subsidized b,

It on the government stamps would b'
