When the conclusion was reached the house Immediately ndjourned hut the senate remained In session for some time afterward, an executive Besslon being held before that body adjourned. Little fault was found with the message among the Republicans, who seemed to agree that It was as satIsfaetory a document as the President could prepare and remain consistent with the party's csmpalgn pledges. The* Democrats approved of the president's efforts to economize but deprecated his suggestion that the Monroe doctrine had practically become olsudete. Opposition to the proposed Immediate congressional Investigation of the sugar Import scandals In tbo New York cuBtom house, slid likewise to any further revision of the tariff at present; absence of any specific, recommendation regarding tbo crisis In Nicaragua, aud actual recommendation of legislation to forbid the Issuance of judicial Injunctions without notice in labor controversies, and for the establishment of u system of postal savings banks, may be considered tho moBt striking features of the first annual mesBMge of President Tuft to congress.

A few days afterwerda, Bqulre Clcrke. a negro, was arrested, charged with having killed Hook, and placing his body on the railroad track to cover aiB terrible crime. For a time .tk* feeling against the negro ran high, and after two trial* he wan convict* ed and sentenced to aervo the brtluoce of hla life in the State Penitentiary. Claik? la wild to have protested hla Innocence through thick and thin, but owing to the fact that he bore a bad reputation In the community, couplod with the fact thut he and Hook had had a falling out a day or two before, It waa believed that be watt tbo guilty party. Auotber thing which worked against the accused was that he and Hook both resided at Gilbert Hollow, which was only two miles from Summit, and both walked the railroad on tbo night to question. Hook wop n barkeeper, and at time, drank to excess. It In said, and at the time the negro waa tried aom? of the elCeena believed that b? hod merely layed down upon tbo track and went to sleep.

Tbo following Interesting story is reported by a postofllco official: 1 "Tao of the mulls la resorted to by artful crooks aa u ruoat convenient way of defrauding the defcUBOb'juj public.

Little do<v? the public realize the nature of the schemes employed to defraud through the mall9. Almost every day the Postmaster General signs orders depriving Individual* and concern* conducting businesses to defraud, from further use of the tnalln. This la not always the final disposition of such ca?i??numbers of theao Individuals are summoned to court, and In many Instances after trial, sentenced to servo long terms in the penitentiary. "Porhaj'S one of the most unusual schemes to defraud through the molls was discovered not long ago After thorough Investigation by the Inspectors It was ultimately suppressed. but not until after the promoters had reaped o harvest. The schemes consisted of an appeal to the people for financial assistance in bebulf of an armless girl. For the purpose of bringing her condition to the public attention, she published a booklet and sent It broadcast throughout the country. The booklet ?'?? devoted to n brief history of the girl's life, detailing sn Occident by which she hud lost both of her arms TU*- narrative was accompanied by UluKtratlons of the uousu al work she performed with her feet. With each booklet mailed was enclosed u coin card requesting the remittance of 2 5 cents for the same, und a circular letter appealing to the recipient for money with which to build o home and get aome good motherly woman to take care or it Tor her. "The Investigation made by the Inspector developed the ihc*. the armless girl had entered Into a contract with a man. who resided in the pame city, to furnish the capital necessary to publish the booklet. In return tlio man was to receive, and did receive one-half of tbs not proceeds deriving from the sale of the booklet. Ho was first roliuburae 1 for the money he had advanced to pay for Ith publication. "On hla Initial tlalt to the town where the business was being carried on. the Inapector found that the enterprise had attained such proportions that tho services of eleven persons, In addition to the armless <lrl und her manager, were required. Th? girl Informed the Inspector on this visit that at thut time throe thousand booklets per day were being mailed, that the dally receipts : amounted to from fSG to |1I?0, ond that the business was steadily In- 1 creasing. She further informed the < Inspector thut up to that time ?he < had accumulated as her share of the 1 proceeds more than f 10,000. While the representations appearing in the ' booklet respecting tbe physical con- ' 'ItIon of the girl were true, she had long passed the stage where she was 1 Jopeudont upon charity.

The attitude of Collier's toward the South has always been particular^ cordial.

I am glad, therefore, to be able to say to you with absolute frankoes* thot the article which has glv?n offense was printed without my Knowledge and to my deep regret: that It did not refer to a Southern ity, but to u city In Illinois; that In so far as it can be construe-* %s reflecting upon the wisdom of the South.
