THE TEMPORARY POST OFFICE, Capt. Sherwood Looks Forward With Pleas- ant Anticipations to Its Occupancy. There are some additional cracks in the ceil- ing of the old city post office building and the walls and floors have a still greater appearance of wishing to shake hands with each other, but in spite ofall the structure still stands, and Capt. Sherwood and his able assistants continue to take care of the correspondence of the city in s marvelous manner, considering every- thing. There isa gleam of hope, however, on the horizon, not only from the advances made in getting things ready for the permanent structure on the avenue apposite the Star office, but also because progress is being rap- idly made on the more or less temporary office on G street. It is expected that the city mail facilities will be exceedingly well located in this new structure, and a smile of happy anticipa- tion spreads itself over Postmaster Sherwood's Peter Mathews, ed with violating the pension law by presenting a false claim, and who plead guilty on the 6th instant, was sen- ed to the lowest term, one year anda day in the penitentiary. ‘Adolph Harrowitz, erty, plead not gui the case of James Goodloe for violating the gaming act by setting up a sweat cloth the recognizance was forfeited. - Similar action was taken in the cases of Herbert Woodson, larceny; Joseph Chittum, assault with intent to kill; Wm.

The building will be six stories in height, but the post office will’ occupy only the base- ment and first two floors. Much thought has been put on the arrangement of the floors and seemingly successful endeavor has been made to have everything as convenient as possible for the pubic. ‘The eopecial departments which the people use have been placed so that y can be reached almost immediately from the G street entrance. The structure will have & frontage of 120 feet on G street and will run back 200 feet, affording 24,000 feet of floor space on cach floor. Nearly surround- ing it and having outlets on three streets will be wide alleys, which will afford the wagons the necessary approaches. A wide lobby will run from the front entrance back to the big clevators. On the right of the lobby as you enter and next the street will be the money order division and directly to the rear the registry division. The left of the lobby will be given up to the delivery portion of the big machine, while at the front and next the street will be the counters, comprising the usual receiving and dispensing windows and a new departure in the way of a bureau of in- form: ‘Lhe entire rear of the building and opening back on the alley will be the mailing division. On the second floor be found the 8, while the | post ollice. bility occupy the new quarters either in Feb- ruary or March, GREAT-INCREASE OF WORK. Capt. Sherwood is enthusiastic over the relief which will be afforded the office from the pres- ent cramped quarters. Speaking of other matters he said to a Srax reporter today: ‘The city post office affairs are in @ good condition and the amount of matter handied is increasing every day. Now branch ofices are being estab- lished as needed and also new carrier stations. ‘The branch post office on Capitol Hill has in- creased its business ina remarkable way, and although at tirs: thought to be ample finds itself “somewhat cramped for spuce. Georgetown and South Washington branches are also doing well and improving in business.” —_ THE SECOND NEW HAMPSHIRE. The Famous Keziment to Hold Its Keunion Here Next Yeur. One of the important reunions to be held in’ this city during the G. A. R. encampment next year is of the first three years’ regiment mus- tered into the United States service in the Inte war. Circulars have been issued for this re- union and a large attendance is expected. The regiment was the second New Hampshire vol- unteers and was originally recruited for three months. New Hampshire's quota only being one regiment of the three months’ men, the second regiment immediately swore in for three years and reached Washington almost as soon as the three months’ men. ‘The regiment then served with distinction until 1865. The rolls show 3,600 men. Among the survivorsare mary men who own this city as their residence. Among these men are: Col. J. N. Pattersoa, second auditor; Maj. George I. Carter, Adju- tant C. N. Lawrence, Lieut. W. H. Prescott and the following enlisted men: Hon. Smith Whit- field, first assistant postmaster general; M. A. Diilon, James M. House, Charles D. Hardy, H. B. Moulton, A. B. Hayward, James Linden, George P.’ Tenney, Nathaniel Freeman, A. A. Forbash, and Miss Harriet P. Dane, the old army nurse, whose record is identical with the regiment and who shared its fortunes from first to last. The local committee are Nathaniel Freeman, James ¥. House and M. A. Diilon. pln aa THE GIRLS’ REFORM SCHOOL. Meeting of the Board of Trustees—Mr, H. Sidney Everett Elected President.

See HE WANTED TO DIE. A District Employe Takes Landanum and Turns on tho Gas, but Will Recover. A young man named J. W. Stephens, who holds a position under the District government, attempted to end his life yesterday, but his ef- forts in that direction proved futile, and it now thought that his recovery is certain. The young man came here from Georgia and wae given s position in the sewer department of the District government. He is a graduate of the State University of Georgia. In that state he held a good position, but it is said he lost it through drink, Eight months ago he came here witlt his wife and two children, and dur- ing his residence here he has not only refrained from drinking, but has used his influence to Prevent the use of intoxicants by others. Several days ago he broke his good reso- lutions and a taste of liquor was more than he could stand. One drink was followed by another until he felt that he could not recover from the downward path, and he coneluded that the only thing lett for him to.do was to seck rest in the grave. This he peep tae to do, as already stated, and to ie used large quantity of laudanum ‘and inhaled considerable illuminating gas. Though he lived at No. 631 2d street northeast, he selected a room in the Syracuse House as the place in which to die, but one of the board- ers made the discovery too soon for him.

An hour's work by Dr. Carlisle, however, restored the unfortunate young man and put him on the road to recovery Still he-was not satisfied and repeated his threats that he would kill himself as soon as an opportunity was presented.
