CURRY’S PATHETIC TALE. His Account of the Way He Got an Ap- pointment and Lost It. Mr. Dean F. Carry of Albion, N. Y., whose | eppointment by Assistant Secretary Quincy as commercial agent at Yarmouth, N. S., was re- voked by Secretary Gresham, has made the following pathetic statement of his case: “T always thought Cleveland was my friend. I live in Albion, N. Y. You can ask any of the Doys up there about me. When they wanted any done they came to me and I did it for them. Ihave run on the democratic ticket when there was no show of being elected. But I did not mind that. I never wanted to be appointel to anything until I was sick, I ways thought that a man who wanted any thing ought to get himself elected to it or go without. “In 1882 I ran for the assembly, and I was beaten by twenty-nine votes. In ‘1883 I ran again. I was beaten by eighty-eight votes. Thad enough of running by thac time. But the boys wanted me to run for police justice and Iran. Iwas elected. Then all went well until 1885 or 1887, when we had a great murder case. Emory ©. Batler, an old sol- dier, was taking a prisoner to the lockup. I defended him at his trial for mur- der at the request of the Grand Army I was not paid and did not expect to be. The trial was an exciting one, and in the course of it Iwas stricken with paralysis. My left side | I thought I might be made postmaster at Albion, but there were too many looking for that place. Finally in 1888 Mr. Cleveland very kindly gave me the place of commercial agent at Yarmouth in Nova Scotia. ‘That is asort of consulehip. The sala: $1,500 and the fees amount to $500 or $1,000. I was out there until Jast September. I had, therefore, nothing to do with any conventions here, either snap or anti-snap. Ail I did was to send in my little contribution like all the rest of the boys. I was bome to do what | could in the way of speaking | and to vote for the ticket. “I came back to practice law, thinking I could go at my profession again, but I found out after two or three cases that it was impos- sible. Iwas stouter and stronger. Mr. Cleve- land, who saw me, said to me Curry, Nova Scotia has done wonders for yor He saw how much better was.

He asked me how I w: nd was very polite. Emboldened by this, I said: ‘Mr. Cleveland, I | am anxious to be by the seaand I want to go back to Yarmouth.’ He told me to goover and lay the case and my papers before Mr. Quincy.

I rented my house and let two young lawyers have my office nd my law library. Everybody congratulated and I feltas sure as a house of the place. ‘Then came this letter from Secretary Gresham.

Genuine politeness is always the outcome of | kind heart, and travelers usually appreciate | any thonghtful attention from their fellow- passengers: but the author of “Two Years ina Jungle” once found it rather difficult to receive & courtesy from s companion on a railroad journey In the compartment with me were three old Hindoo merchants, gray-bearded, dignified and | respectable, who evidently were natives of the better sort. Breakfast time came. Wo were still many hot and dusty miles from « refreshment sta- tion, and from the depths of some of their bundles the old gentlemen, who’ bad evidently traveled before. evolved a supply of cooked food. It consisted simply of a large bow! of “dal,” pea soup. and a pile of ‘chapathes, i i like (pees! leathery unleavened pancakes made of jour. With my usual indifference to the wants of my tuner man I had ueg'ected to provide my- with luncheon, and while I was thinking of the nice breakfast I should have in two or three hours one of the old gentlemen suddenly thrust his fingers into the bowl of cooked ‘dal”—they had no spoons, forks or knives— ' scooped up a generous handtul, plastered it over a little pile of “chapathes,” and with a benevolent beam over his spectacles handed it to me. 1€ ny attack the one | j anim. the Resno bela pretsises Se, | Startiwest ay Monst ive terins of sale as preser ye cectee are as scives AUCTION SALES.
