ADVENTURES OF AN ALBUM.
Signed by All Postal Employees and
Passed AIonu.

An exceedingly fat, heavily bound
autograph album containing the
names Of nearly two thousand en-
ployes of the postal service was re-
ceiVed at the post office department,
and after all clerks who so desire
have inscribed their names on it's
pages the book will resume its
! journey around the country. The
/ album is the property of Lydia J.
King, of Hawthorne, New, who started
it on it's tour of the country in March,
| 1897, with the request, printed on the
cover, that all railway and mail clerks
and post office employees sign it,
stamp the date and send it along
again. The book has been all over the
west wherever the mail is carried, has
been in hold-ups, washouts, wrecks
cyclones, and while bearing on the
cover the marks of it's adventures. the
contents are protected by the heavy
binding and are in good condition.
Some of the clerks who signed the
book paused long enough in their
work of handling the mail to trifle
with the muse. One railway mail
clerk on western run wrote beneath
his name:
standing by the car windows,
Watching the distant hills,
l have been wondering, Lydia,
How l can pay my bills
The postal clerk on the run from /
Omaha to Ogden acknowledges the |
responsibility for the following:-
I'VE, who have tried and tried again
To split the wood to suit.
Say, when Manila mail comes nigh.
Please send US some subs-to-toot."
The volume was in a hold-up near
cheyenne, Wyo., on June 1 last W. |,
J. Bruce. one of the clerks concerned,
wrote under his name

objection for the pulpit, and when he
was 10 years old he preached his first
sermon among the miners OF North
cumberland. He was ordained in 1852.
and when only % was made pastor Of
a Congregational chapel at Banbury.
DR.. Parker's eloquence filled the little
chapel on Sundays and week DAYS
His fame spread rapidly, and he was
called to the wealthy CaVendish
church in Manchester in 1857. The
massive chapel was taxed to its ut
most to hear the new apostle of liner
al religion. After ten years service
he was called to London From his
father he inherited the frame OF
Hercules and a constitution of iron.
Ihat father was a stOnecutter. a man
CT the CIomWellian type. who hated
lies and who despised soft people. DR..
Parker was invited to be the assist
ant Of a man who was noted in that
day for his blunt speech in the matter
of criticism. This was DR.. John
and Dr. Parker owed much
CT mis- success to the lessons he
learned from the sturdy old Scotch
man. DR.. Parker commenced his Lon
don ministry in 1869 He occupied the
pulpit Of the Poultry chapel in Cheap

u late years was the head is the cid

Goodwin, who was at one time chan
ain to Oliver Cromwell, president Of

The action OF Major Micah Jenkins
in refusing to accept the sword which
was to have been presented TO him by
President Roosevelt, upon the invita-
ton of Col. Tillman, will bc commcnd-
ed throughout the State. AS soldier
and as 4 gentleman he could not have
done otherwise. He was II captain u"der
Col. Roosevelt in the battle where
h" displayed such conspicuous courage
as to call forth from his chief and
friend the words engraved upon the
ecabbard Of the sword, which words
contributed more than any other one
thing towards bringing his bravery be
fore the people OF this country, and that
man, his former chief, is now President
of the Unitod States and commundcr-in
chief Of its armies. He took the right
course and his action was what was cX-
pectcd of'him Wy the people OF South
Carolina. Col. Tillman has received a

President, and Major Jenkins has vim

fusing to accept the sword.

stion.
Senator Tillman Is said to have been
very explicit In his assertion that it

dent and the withdrawal OF President
Roosevclts invitation to the senator to
meet Prince Henry at dinner at the
White House which was followed by
the telegram from Lieut.. Gov. Tillman
of Routh Carolina cancelling the invi.
tation to the President to present a
sword to Major Micah J. Jenkins.

conversation said:
