Several of these persons have fortunes so gigantic as to have attracted the attention of the entire world. Among the number are men who are in charge of the largest railroads, telegraph companies, bank and trust companies of the nation. These sixty»three persons are, upon careful computation, estimated to be worth more than 1500,000,000 in the aggregate.” Professor Perry, a balloonist, had a narrow escape at Mt. Holley, N.

The accident occurred very much the same way as did the one which resulted in the death of Professor Yandegrift during the Chattahoochee Valley Exposition last fall, except that Yandegrift succeeded in clearing hi? parachute from the collapsed air vessel, and met death by drowning ic the Chattahoochee.

Polenard’s suit against the president to recover servant’s wages. Tae woman claims that while she was with the Harrison’s in the ca pacity of cook she got neither her wages nor enough to eat. She says that “ even the steward had to skirmish for a square meal.” We do not place a great deal of faith in what the woman says, She is certainly very mad, and is probably using some extravagant language. We are opposed to the president politically, but we have no wish to pry into his do mestic affairs. If Mrs. Harrison wanted to discharge her high-priced French cook ehs had a perfect right to do so. On the other hand, if the woman thought that she was entitled to compensation which she did not get, it was her privilege to institute legal proceedings. But the startling and ridiculous story the cook related to the New York World will hardly he accepted a3 true. The presi dent’s side of the story has not yet been given, and, if he is wise, will not be, un less it is brought out in the courts. Now Let Us Talk Artesian Well.

William son met on “the field of honor” in Ala bama yesterday to settle their differ ences. Reports are conflicting as to the jel. JSirly telegrams_£tate A Much-Needed Postal Reform, “While the postmaster genera! is in a reforming mood, I wish he would give a moment’s attention to rhe illegible post marks on nine-tenths of the letters that go flying through the country,” said a member of a big wholesale dry good; drui yesterday. “It is an impossibility to decipher the hieroglyphics that spread ’hemsetves over a great amount cf our correspondence. I suppose that we Phil adelphians, who ar6 accustomed to spell out most complex anagrams and drop- letter puzzles on our street iamps, should be able by this time to fathom the mean ing of these postal enigmas, but it is a tough tussle to guess at a nine-lettered word when only three letters appsar. Don’t we have the postoffice address in side the envelope? “Ou, yes, generally, but its essential part is often omitted. That is, our corres pondents are rarely careful to teii us what state they hail from. If a man writes from Cincinnati, be is pretty sure to affix to his address a big round ‘O,’ or from Chicago, he adds a superfluous ‘111.’ But if tbe letter comes from Criss Cross Cor ners, |or C "U avilie, the penman assumes that the fame ot his native heath is world wide, and that it would be a waste of ink to mention whether it is located in Texas, Arizona or New Jersey. “We appeal to the postmark for guid ance, but its black blur is generally mean ingless. A gazeteer will not set ns straight, for Smithvilie or the Corners will probably appear to be as numerously situated as Homer’s birthplace. In time we accumulate quite a heap of letters with undecipherable postmarks, which have never been answered, nor ever can be, because of the writer’s stupidity and the postmaster’s carelessness. Either fairly distinct marks should deco rate each envelope, or they should be omitted entirely.”—Philadelphia Record. ANNOUNCEMENT*.
