Washington, April 16, 1889. Master of the Axe ) Clarkson, of | the postoffice department is striving | | to break the record. Up to today | | he has de ecapitated 3,153 democratic postmasters of the fourth class and re ws) commissioned as many republicans. | | He did not commence in earnest un- til March 25. to office and March 24, there were 300 fourth-class republican officers appointed. On March 25 he com- mussioned 104; on the 26th, 143; on the 27th, 144; on the 28th, 92; mak ing dang the month of March 719. On tue tsi of April he made 90 re- Piblea fourth-class postmasters; O41 the 2d, 10d; on the 3d, 150; on the 4th, 115; on the 5th, 144; and on tue 6th 144, inaking for the first Week in Ay 587. On April 8th he commissioned 109; on the 9th, 125; on tne 10th, 166; on the 11th, 152; on the 12th, 157; and on the 13th, 209, making a total for the second week in April of 923. On the 15th he appointed 197 and to-day | he made 137 postmasters, making a grand total during his term of 3,153. | * He only began active work on the 25th of March, therefore his record between the 25th of March, and the evening of the 16th of April i is 2,853. The spoilmen even can hardly com- plain of this kind of work. But as Clarkson is the representative of the spoilsmen of the administration, it is to be presumed that he is doing | his best to make a record to suit his | masrers. The day called on J.

Lt | it believed that Bell's record as lord high executioner is almost equal to that of Clarkson, but Clarkson prides | himself on his record and will make | an exhibit to any American citizen on demand. to state how many dismissals and appointments he has made in his department, and the American citi- zens who foot the bills must in ignorance of his doings. out time Bell's deputy executioners have | been mainly operating on the south | Atlantic coast.

King’s Slayer Set Free. Omaha, April 10.—The jury inthe jtrial of Miss Beecher for killing | Henry W.

King was the son of a millionaire | clothing dealer in Chicago. He and | Miss Beechler lived together in Chi- | cago, and the woman claimed to be his wife. King finally abandoned her and married.

In the war of 1812, between this country and Great Britain, Elbert Anderson, of New York, purchased in Troy, N. Y., a large amount of pork for the American army. It was inspected by Samuel Wil- son, who was popularly known as “Uncle Sam.” The barrels of pork were marked “EE. A., U. S.,” the let- tering being done by a facetious employe of Mr. Wilson. When asked by fellow-workmen the meaning of the mark (for the letters U. S., for United States, were then almost entirely new to them) minister in East Providence, and in afew minutes they were married. Then they started on an extensive wedding jouruey, leaving no word as to when they should forgiveness. It is in every respect a love match. Miss King is a grand-daughter of the late Deacon King, the million- aire, and daughter of Fred King. Providence is noted for pretty girls and Miss King was considered one of the handsomest in town.

The joke took among the work- men, and passed currently, and *Un- cle Sam” himself being preseni, was occasionally rallied on the extent of his possessions. Soon the incident appeared in print. and the joke gained favor rapidly, till it penetrat- ed and was recognized in every part of the country, and, says John Frost, the Boston historian, will no doubt continue so while the United States remains a nation. It is now firmly imbedded in the Mosaic of our language, like “Tippe- canoe,” “Log Cabin,” and other short but expressive phrases, which refer to important events in the his- tory of the Republic.

The King mansion is near the coilge, and Miss King has a host o* callers nearly every evening. She had apparently no choice among her many suitors. McLeod is a popular student and a studious fellow, and was supposed to be too much wedded to his books to pay any attention to Cupid’s as- saults.
