Converted Office—Seekers. The ever facetious and always sensi- ble IVsshington Post, thus defends the grand army Of patriots eager to serve their country for their country’s good, and administers a just rebuke to those Congressmen and' heads of governmen- tal departments, who having themselves safely landed into a coveted and much labored for office, decry those who appeal to them for aid in shoving up to the official pie-counter. It says :— We are hearing a great deal nowa-i' days, of the newly installed Official who. having just retired from the busi- ness himself, is naturally scornful and impatient toward those who are still seeking public place. Impressive and full of meaning and suggestion are the pictures we get of this successful per- sonage as he lounges at his cushioned case within the pleasant confines which he is to adorn for the next four years- Only a week or so ago he was chasing office even as the yellow dog pursues the toothsome rabbit. To-day his chest looks like an orielswindow, his step is calm and measured, his glance a sol- emn, thoughtful beam, his manner ser- ious, his brow contracted in tremor- dous thought. No longer does he .buttonhole his Congressman on the bleak outskirts of the lobby and fish for influences in every puddle he can find. The Government has opened wide its bounteous arms and nursed his hunger till there is not awrinkle left. New doth he immure himself in soft- ly carpeted retreats and post forbid- ding lackeys at the outer door to turn away the clamoring throng. Delega- tions come and he talks with them reluc- tantly. There is a dislraz’t air about him, as though he feared the company might. suffer while his attention wan- dered. He eyes the anxious ones with gloomy reprobation, wondering how men can be so shamelessly importa- nate,'and wishing they Would go away and leave him alone with his stateman- ship and his salary. And, then, occas- ionally one comes who says he simply called to Offer deference to greatness; that he doesn’t want any ofiice at all, and—but here the personage arises, his frown dispelled, his speaking feat- ures wreathed in smiles, and with out- stretched hand and' trembling voice bids him thrice welcome to a brother’s heart and love. Not want'an oiiice! Then is his soul rejoiced and his whole being bathed in rapture. This is the ancient, moss-grown, ivy; covered humbug presented to us almost daily in connection with officials great and small who have not been in ofiice quite two weeks and who, previously, were just as eager and zealous in the chase as any of the panting multitude they now regard with such distaste. What nonsense! Why is it disrepu- table in Brown to§do to-day what Jones was doing only yesterday, and by what ,right does Jones pass judgement in condemnation on him ? Why should not honest citizens who want an Office call upon thefunctionary within whose province the appointment lies?'In what better way could that functionary em- ploy his time than in meeting applicants and considering their claims and quali- ties? There is about these goings~on an odor that bids fair to strangle one.” ----___4_..,___.__ Ran Away to Get Married. Miss Nellie R.

MISS ROBA. . “Miss Rora,” the new play in which Miss Akerstrom uses her .trained horse Gyp and pack of bounds, is not a rough play as some people might suppose. She is called Rora, an abbrevmtion of Aurora, by the two miners who find her a waif upon the plains._ Brought up by these men in a mining camp, their ways are her ways. She loves the beautiful in nature, knows nothing of the ways and»manners of society. After she is taken to _the home of her grandfather in Louisiana she cannot at all times forget her free and un- trammeled life upon the plains, and oc- casionally makes her grandfather the subject of her playful pranks. She foils the attempts of her cousins (who were theformer heirs) to murder her grandfather, and when her horse is changed for another (a Wicked beast) in the last act, triumphs .over her ene- mies by her fearless riding, wins the brush at the fox hunt and her lover as well. The play is handsomely staged and has been favorably noticed wherever produced. “Miss Rora” will be presented at the 4 Norwalk Opera House Thursday even-' ing March 23d; Friday the popular comedy drama, “The Balletl Dancer.” At the matinee on Saturday “Miss Rom”. will be repeated and, on Satur— day evening .Mi'ss -Aker.§tro'm’s new pity ‘ ‘That.

'Diligent inquiry yesterday 'of the Rep- resentatives of a number of States failed to show that the President had promised anybody anything. .

We are not getting anything. Neither is any one else.” The President repeatedly remarks that he sees no occasion for haste in deciding upon applications for office.

Robert Hansborough of Chillicothe, 0., is the owner of the “eighth wonder of the world,” a cow that gives coal- black milk. The cow is a mixture of Jersey and Durham, and was raised on the Hansborough farm, as was also her mother and many' sisters, none of whom exhibited any peculiarity in the color of their milk. Mollie, as this phenomenal creature is called, has reared five or. six: calves, all of whom hay]? lived and grown fat on the black mi . ' The milk produces _a fair amount of cream. This cream isa trifle lighter in color than the milk itself, and,‘ when churned, makes a kind of butter that resembles a thick mixture of coal tar. Paradoxical as it may seem this butter is as palatable as though ofa golden yellow, and it, is said to be highly relished by the whole? Hans- borough family. At first, when the peculiar Color Of' Molliels. milk was discovered by the person to whom was allotted‘ the task of “breaking the cow in,” the family was afraid to use it in any way. . When they saw that the calf was waxing fat on the liquid tar the younger members of the family overcame their prejudices and within a few days the milkihwas being used as if it had been of the regulation color. , Chemists of New York, Washington, and Richmond have analyzed both the milk and the butter, but declare that they can detect nothm,‘ vthat ' any way accounts teens color.+0ni8"' .5 Minn, “America dam-a. great-a Ills l-‘mnous Tremmit Temple the Latest Eyoy of the Flames, '.
