WAsniNGTon, Feb. 4.- The story .if the little boy who picked up a pin in front of the wealthy mer chant and was rewarded lor his in dustry by a |1,200 clerkship, is now rather eclipsed by a recent in cident in Postmasier General Dickinson's career. It happened after be had been appointed br ibe President and before he had been confirmed by the Senate, during winch period his status at the Post Office Department wns rather doubtful. One afternoon late, he was about to step into the side entrance w hen the zealous doorkeeper interposed: “Too late.” “But. my man, I bare important business inside. “Are yon a member of Congress?” “No.” “Have you an order from a mem ber?” “No.” Can't get in, Hicd; too late.” “Well, when can I get in?” “Dunne.” “Who can tell ” “Dunno. Move on, now.” It was then that Mr. Dickinson retired and entered the building by another door. The doorkeeper in the meantime pursued the even t'-nor of his ways, satisfied that he bad done the right thing and vindicated the authority of the Postmaster General. Not long afterward he was astonished, however, to receive an order lo call on the new Postmaster Gener al, who had in the meantime been confirmed by ihe Senate. His astonishment may be better im agined than described when he confronted Mr. Dickinson, the stranger whom lie had treated so ungraciously. His new chief, though, proved magnanimous. “I didn’t care anything for your discourtesy to me.” he said, “but it might have hurt the feelings of a third class postmaster. Answer questions after this.
