He received them / most cordially, recognizing some among them with whom he was personally acquainted, and gave them more time than it is his custom to devote to delegations.

Mr. Clarkson, the newly-confirmed first as- sistant postmaster-general, arrived at the de- partment shortly before 12 o’clock to-day. He was received by Col. Stevenson, and the oath was administered to him by Judge Lawrenson. He was then introduced to the em- ployes of the office,and about 1 o'clock he went out with Col. Stevenson for lunch. He had, however, received a large number of visi- tors, and seemed to divide with the Postmaster- General the stream of visitors that poured into the department up to noon. Two large delegations from Virginia and Maryland arrived about the same time, and as they filed into the room of the Postmaster- General some one estimated that were at least 100 in the two delegations. John S. Wise headed the Virginia delegation, and after a brief inter- view they withdrew. Age and Weight of Cavalrymen. GENERAL SCHOFIELD’S CIRCULAR AS TO THE AGE AND WEIGHT OF RECRUITS. General Schofield has issued a circular to the army announcing that the maximum age for cavalry recruits upon original enlistment is fixed at thirty years; also that the standard of minimum weight for cavalry recruits estab- lished in June, 1887, is abolished, and that hereafter enlistments in that service may be made without regard to a minimum weight, provided the chest measurement and chest mobility are satisfactory. About two years ago the weight requirement was established, but the practice has demonstrated that it is of no value as a test of the qualifications of recruits, It has been found that men of comparatively light weight, when properly proportioned, are as efficient and capable cavalrymen as heavy men.

Ma, Evaats axp His Wixzs,—Senator Evarts has a world-wide reputation as a lawyer, andas a legislator he is credited with being remarka- bly able, while, as a humorist, he bids fair to become a rival to such eminent wits as Bill Nye and Eugene Field. The senior Senator from New York was talking on the floor of the Sen- ate with ds and Palmer, and the Vermonter, looking critic at the appar- ently frail pirslee representative of the Em- pire state, said: “I don’t see, Evarts, how you stand all this hard work and the endless round of social duties. Why, it must be a terrible strain y simply to drink the different kinds of wine you get at the various houses you goto.” “The different kinds of wine I drink,” replied Mr. Evarts, the ghost of a smilg¢ on his features, ‘cause me but little concern bo long as they are p upset my 2. said, “Let’s go down stairs and draw a cork.” Sa ion.

Purim, or the Feast of Esther, the great Hebrew feast, will begin to-morrow evening and continue until the next evening. The feature of the services held in the synagogues will be the reading of the Book of Esther. In addition to the feasting and joy recommended by Mordecai, the founder of Purim, to com- memorate the day whereon the Jews saw their sorrow turned into gladness. he enjoined the sending of “portions from one to another, and of gifts tothe poor.” Among the orthodox Jews it is the custom to remember one’s friends with the delicacies of the season.

Boswell, clerk to the Senate committee on the District of Co- lumbia? placed his resignation in the hands of Senator Ingalls, but at the urgent request of the Senator he consented to remain until the close of the Fiftieth Congress. The resigna~ tion has now taken effect, and to-morrow Mr. Bosweil’s connection with the committee ceases, much to the regret of those whose business has taken them to the District committee-room.

A paper has been quietly citculated aropnd the capitol for the past few weeks and has re- ceived the signatures of nearly every member of the last House and the present Senate.

Caucus of Republican Senators. THE TWO SUBJECTS WHICH WERE UNDER CONSID- ERATION YESTERDAY, Republican senators, in caucus yesterday afternoon, argued fora long time over two questions in which the public is not overmuch interested. One was: Shall the president pro tempore of the Senate, while the Vice-President lives, be elected at each daily session of the Senate, or is one election sufficient to make his title good throughout an entire Co: ? On this ques- tion there was considerab! eement and no definite conclusion was arrived at. The other question under discussion was the debate on the Hoar southern-ontrage resolu- tion. Several senators thought that Mr. Coke's speech ought to be answered now, and they ex- pressed themselves as not only ready but anxious to do it. The caucus, however, came to no decision on the matter and it may be that ry another caucus will take the subjects up on Monday and decide ther Wants $20,000 for False Arrest. THE SUIT OF WM. L. ROSE AGAINST MEMBERS OF A FIRM OF JEWELERS. An interesting case was placed on trial before Judge Montgomery this morning—that of Wm. L, Rose against Geo. W.

Maccn Creunck, Pa., March 15,—Judge Dreher this morning charged the jurors in the case of the commonwealth against Henry Cook, the Mud Run engineer charged with criminal negligence. The judge dwelt on the several charges of the indictment, on the du- ties, rules and regulations governing the em- lopes of the railroad company. He said thet if e defendant was in any way contributory to the accident either through default or ne- glect in eo ty Jad or in assuming that the responsibility devolved upon another, he was ilty as charged in the indictment. At 9:30 o'clock the jury retired armed with a bundle of maps, schedules, time-tables and train-orders, all bearing on the case. Attorney McLean, counsel for Jas, Hannigan, athe alleged negligent flagman, asked that the indictment against Hannigan be qnashed for the reason that the indictment failed to set forth the defendant's abiding place. ctor UNDER MOUNTAINS OF COAL.

Hopes were entertained of reaching two of them to-day, but a fall of coal, bringing down with it thousands of tons, occurred at 8 o'clock this morning.
