An Interesting Old CIocA.

kennebec Journal.
 An Augusta collector of antique furni- ture has just discovered an old Washing ton clock in New Hampshire town which he prizes very highly. He found it in deserted house which was built early in the last century and 1t was slowed away in the garret. He succeeded in buying it and 1t will arrive in Augusta in a few days. More than a century has elapsed since 1t first began to tick. The designs were drawnp in England and it was manufactured in the mother country. It is nine feet in height and the material is mahogany It sets on Hons feet The works are brass. On the dial are oil paintings of George Washington. the fa- nous cherry tree which he cut the chapel where he attended divine worship and tho Potomac River. The case is inlaid in brass wlshbone work At the top is a brass ball with a rosette on each side and a Queen Anne head. It is an eight-day clock. The new owner thinks there is not another such rare old tmepiece in New England.

Washington, June S.-(Spccial.)-Wh nat about the Second Assistant Postmaster General and the Third Assistant Postmas- ter-General?
 That is a curious question which has been several times lately propounded by people who have been hearing and read ing continually about the Postmaster General, Mir. Payne. and the First Assist ant Postmaster-General, MT. Wynne, and the Fourth Assistant Pqstmaster- General, MT. Bristow. But little or noth- ing ever about the Second and Third Postmasters-G General. Even this corre- spondent, oppressed by the strange ab- sence of remark concerning these two Of- ficers of the Government, set out to ascer- tain if the continued in official and actual existence. But they really do and they are quite important governmental per- sonages. The Second Assistant Postmas- ter-General is MT. w. S. Shallenberger. His sentiments in the present crisis of the department are worthy of note. at least as a timely reminder of his existence and participation in the affairs of the widely discussed department
 After all this investigation and pub licity," said MT. Shallenberger, "the only way to restore public confidence in the postoffice administration is for thor ough investigation of every department" !"
 NODOuy tHdI the lHNeSIlSdtlOn will be extended to embrace the entire department. The administration will hardly dare to leave any part of 1t an ob- ject of everlasting suspicion.
 'If 1t appears upon the surface that any appointments in my department" said MT. Shallenberger. were made for political reasons. why am sure that an investiga- tion will show they were made according to all requirements. I want every branch of my department thoroughly investigat- ed. This includes questions raised in the transportation of mails and the charges that the railroads have been overpaid. Congress has investigated this subject, and 1 doubt if much more can be ascer- tained. At any rate we are only fulfilling the law and have no choice.
 The contracts for extending the pneu- matic tube service authorized by Congress are also in my Jurisdiction. I am willing all such contracts, as well as those of mail transportation, for mail equipments. star routes and weighing of mails shall be thoroughly looked into"
 MT. Shallenberger admitted that certain discharged employees, not to be named Tor the present. have been seeking to make trouble. Another matter Is to be examined Is the charge filed by a labor union that discrimination is practiced in the pay of laborers in this department, and also leave of absence allowances.

 MT Heath, by the way, is beginning to deserve the title of the lever present MT. Heath" Probe into the office of the At torney General for the Postoffice and MT. Heath bobs up serenely. Look into MT, Machens charges and behold. you run across Perry Heath. Investigate the al- ion and there is our brave MT. Heath once more. Even in New York. as well as in Cuba and Porto Rico, the far-reach- ing influence uf this peerless Indiana statesman apparently made itself felt. Mir George W. Beavers, former head of the division of salaries and allowances, Is now reported to be ready to assist the inspectors in return for immunity for any act which might be open to criti- cism.' Doubtless he could tell the public much about MT. Heath that has not yet come out. When defendants become ready to turn States evidence 1t is generally a sign that the whole truth is near the sur face.

Origin of Names of Carriages.

UImnlbuses were first seen in Paris in 1927. and the name Is nothing more than "Cab" Is an abbreviation of the Italian word cabrlola which was changed to ca briolet in French. Both words have a goats leap. The exact reason for. giving 1t this strange appellatlon Is unknown: unless because of the. lightness and springiness of the vehicle in it's original form In some instances the names of special forms of carriages are derived from the titles of the persons who intro duced them, The brougham was first used bv the famous Lord Brougham, and the popuiar hansom also derives it's name from it's introducer. Mr. Hanson. Lam dan a city in Germany, was the local ity in which was first made the style of vehicle hearing that name.

Worth Preserving.

Under the new apportionment made on the basis of the last census twenty out of forty-five States have increased their electoral vote-the total increase being twenty mine electoral votes. of which the South gains eight In 1900 there were AT votes in the electoral college. Next year there will be 476. Therefore the candi- date for President who receives as many as 239 electoral votes will be elected
 In 1900 the Republican nominee for President received 292 electoral votes and the Democratic nominee received 155. If the same States which went Republican, in 1900 should vote the same way in 1904 the Republicans would have 311 electoral votes, a gain of nineteen, while the Dem ocrats would have 165, a gain of only ten.
 The following tables show the electoral vote under the old as well as the new ap- portionment, the first being the twenty eight States which went Republican in 19OO.

The Memphis Cpmmercial-Appeal does not have the fear of John Wesley Gaines before It's eyes. It treats him as If he was no more than ordinary mortal when it says: Southern Congressman continue giving the votes of the South to their favorite candidates for President. Not long ago Hon.

A great many representatives of North ern newspapers have been in the South in recent months, and their letters to a great extent have been singularly fair to the South and its people. Particularly is this the case with The New York Sun and The Chicago Tribune. These are both Republican newspapers but they are pre- seuting a great many solid chunks or wis dom and information to their readers, and which the most of them would not obtain in any other way. The great mass of transformation and prejudice that has been flowing out over the country can be cpunteracted in no better manner than by investigation right on the ground by fair minded and impartial men

AMERICANS FETED.

In formally welcoming the American
naval forces to England last night,
King Edward took occasion to make an
emphatic declaration in favor of closer
relations between the United States and
Great Britain. His majesty did not
speak of an alliance or even of an un-
derstanding, but the impression was
clear from his remarks that he desired
that the two nations move together in
the interests Of the peace of the world.
Some of the Kings ministers also took
advantage of the occasion to impress on
the American officers their cordial ap-
proval of the Monroe doctrine and their
desire that it be supported by American
influence in way which would place
it above all criticism.
The royal welcome was extended to
the American officers at Buckingham
Palace, where, at $50 p. M, commen-
ced the dinner given in their honor by
King Edward. The tablewas decorated
by Marechal Neil roses and gold plate
brought from Winsor was used.
The King commanded the most distin-
guished officials of the empire to attend,
aud thirty-six guests weie present. On
the King right sat Ambassador Choate
and on his left Rear Admiral Cotton.
The King was dressed in the uniform
of an admiral of the British feet.
