May began to sob, not softly, as she had always
read young lady should do when faced with proofs
of her lovers perfidy but with the prineval vigor
of the country maid. She was, indeed, little higher
in the social scale of the village than the rivals
Wilson had suggested, having spent few years
with aunt of the big cities, and learned
the piano and few vulgar Alterations But she
knew in her heart that Harry Warren i'm
measuraby above her in station. And if he

willing to do little heartbreaking her own

the pout of the offended

to be coaxed and petted into

forward a little, sauntering
with coquettishly downcast
eyes. The hoof-beats sounded
nearer, until with a jerk the
horse was pulled up almost at
her feet.

Needless to say Harry Warren was the cause OF

she naturally wished to exhibit him at her chariot

far that she impaired the news to her girl friends
under a strict pledge of silence. 1t was, IN tact,
secret that most of the village maids IN turn had
promised not to tell
Possible objections from Lord Arncffe had hither-

AN EXECUTIVE EDICT
INTERESTING AND IMPORTANT IN-
 FORMATION DIVULGED.
Alabama POstmasters Must Quit Work In Active Politics or Else Leave the Employ of Uncle
 Sam.

Washington, Feb. 1S-(Special.)- An interesting and important piece of information intimately reaching at the vitaIs of federal official life in the South was divulged in the ofice of the postmaster general today.
 It Is that the civil service commits sion has called attention to the fact that in Alabama and other Southern States numerous postmasters are off, cially identified with party organiza- tIons in violation of the spirit of civil service. The postmasters in Alabama who hold any party office such as com nittee chairmansnips or any known connection with a political party formed for campaign work will he mo- titled that they must either quit &C., tive politics of that kind or sever their connection with the government
 This is understood to be the be- ginning of movement which will embrace all federal officers under every department of the government.
 As very generally throughout the South the political machinery Is al- most wholly constructed of federal office holders. this executive edict must necessarily bring aboua a revo- lution of Republican party manage ment in the Southern States.
