Our mailing department has Wen completely crowded out of the government building and is now, in part, in a. room adjoining the federal building formerly used as a saloon, and in an old tumbledown lire trap that was formerly a stable and has no protection against tire and little light and ventilation. Our city division is entirely inadequate, from a standpoint of room, and the clerks and carriers are sandwiched together like sardines. The light is bad and in the least dark or cloudy weather we are compelled to substitute the artificial for the natural light. The ventilation is worse, and the result is the Iotofrlce is a most unhealthy place, as is witnessed by the number of employes constantly on the sick list. The arrangements for heating the building are incomplete and in cold weather there is much inconvenience and at times actual suffering on this account."

IIOOSIEI EXPLORER DEAD. t Curl Sifckrlmnnn Drowiietl Oft Went Const of Africa. the Word has been received that Carl Steckelmann, an African explorer, was drowned Aug. 10. The report comes from Mayumba, Honth Africa. It is hoped by his friends that there may be an error in the reports, but they seem to have been confirmed by letters received by the explorer's brother, Gus Stfckelmann,. of Shelbyville. Ills Information is that, his brother found - it necessary to use surf boats in transferring cargoes of merchandise for Tomllnson & Co., of Liverpool, whose agent he had been for ten years. The coast opposite Mayumba is dangerous and during a high sea the boats were wrecked upon the rocks. Although an expert swimmer, Steckelmann was unable to save himself and was drowned. Steckelmann had a number of Indianapolis correspondent., who have received occasional letters giving. Interesting information upon many questions. They have revealed the nature of the explorer. Ills lirst thought seems to have been to better the condition of . the natives and settlers with whom he came in contact. He was an American in spirit, although foreignborn, and was proud of his adopted State. Carl Steckelmann was born in Halberstadt, near the Hartz mountains, in Trusslun Saxony, thirty-two yt-ars ago. When eighteen years old he determined to go to Africa a an explorer. Ills father was opposed to the Idea and sent him to visit an uncle, hoping his mind would be diverted into other channels. He was not to le turned from his purpose, and in four years later, he went to Liverpool. A trading house of that city promised to employ him upon his arrival in Africa if his services were needed. Steckelmann landed at Mayumba. Some of Hit-hop Taylor's missionaries- took an interest in him and he Joined them In building hous- and aided them in other ways. A year later a young man t-mployrd by one of the English trading liousts died and his place was given to Steckelmann. From that time on he was actively engaged in the African trade and worked his way upward until he became head of the firm. He visited this country in 1SSS, bringing with him a collection valued at $l).0"tf. but which he could not dispose of for $VX. During Ids stay In this country he was before many colleges and scientific societies with his collection. Mr. Steckelmann was a noted gorilla hunter and has given a number of interesting descriptions of his experiences in that linn. He once killed two gorillas that attSril a "vong glMa. whSr hrpt f Kmc time at .Mayumba. uunng Ms hrst sojourn on the- west coast of Africa, north cf the Cono, he made a trip inland three hundred miles to Stanley Pool by a route almost unknown. On this trip ha secured many valuable ethnological specimens. On this occasion Mr. Speckelmann bought a strip of land sixty by thirty miles In db

mensions on the west coast of .Africa. The ; night there will be a meeting for the purprico paid was about $100 worth of gun- pose of swearing in recruits, and a stand powder, beads, etc. of colors will be presented to the corps here.

ueorge u. weosier, or tnis city, received probably tiic last letter he ever wrote to this country. It Is dated In August. In this letter he asks as to the right to display the stars und stripes In th basin of the Congo over his canoe. This matter had been laid lefore the State Department, but was never acted upon. Two Innanlty Iniieftt. Andrew Shackcl was declared insane) yesterday, lie is a carpenter by trade, thirty yt ars old. Is marrleJ and has two children. Ills worry about being out of work 19 supposed to hae driven him mad. Ills trouble is that of acute melancholia. Mrs. James Darnell was also pronounced imane.

Itorrower of County Fundi Refuse to 1'nj A Comma or Semi-Colon. A case in Randolph county emphasizes the fact that more care and consideration in editing bills passed by the" Legislature is necessary. In this case it is claimed by Judge Elliot that the question of a comma or semi-colon changes a law so as to make it mean probably the opposite of what Is really intended. Section 41 of II. B. 39C, 1SS1, in the enrolled copy, reads: "Whoever uses by. way of investment In any kind of property, or loans either with or without interest, (;) or deposits with any person or persons, corporation or corporations, contrary to law, or exchanges for other funds, is guilty of embezzlement, etc." Where in this enrolled copy there is a comma after the word "interest," in Uurns's statutes there is a semi-colon. It is possible that the difference In punctuation may mako no difference in the meandng of the law, but it leaves a point for the mystification of courts, and makes it necessary for the Supreme Court to rule upon the question, if any one desires to ra'se the point. The case from Randolph county I one that arises under a recent opinion of the Supreme Court. The treasurer of Randolph county loaned $3,000 and the borrower now refuses to pay It, relying upon the decision that it is not collectible. COTTON". MANUFACTURE. Tlir lndiifttry Seem Prosperous Just A'ovr tn ThU City. The Indianapolis Bleaching Company, lately, incorporated by Brower & Love Bros., will be operated In conjunction with their cottton mill.

WHERE-ARE THE .DEMOCRATS? Not in Evident and Little Talk, or Clnmor tor dominations. The Democratic State committee has not held a 'meeting since this State went 40.000 Republican last year. - It has been so long since a meeting was held that not many Democrats can remember the. date of the last. The committee 'has not retired from the field permanently, however, and will meet fpr reorganization. Yesterday Secretary Riley, of the committee, said he had heard nothing on the question of reorganization, but it would take place in January. He said tho district meetings would be held about the same time a.t the Republicans hold theirs. He also said the call could be' is sued bv the chairman and secretary, but it i was usual to call the. entire committee together for tho purpose of authorizing the, district meetings, anJ he supposed the same rule would be observed this year. If Mr. Reilly is chief clerk in the pension offlce, and Is paying but little heed to politics, and, indeed, no one seems to be looking after the party organization at the present time. ' For a little time after Mr. Taggatt was elected Mayor of this city there was some appearance cf Democratic enthusiasm, but it died away after the recent sweeping Re publican victories. The men usually regarded as leaders appear, to take no Interest in tho future of the party. If any have any designs upon nominations for State offices next year they are keeping silent. Inquiry among menwell verged in the affairs of the party falls to elicit any information as to who will be candidates for the nominations to be mad next year. Lieutenant Governor Mortimer Nye is seeking the nomination for Governor. He eems to think the Democratic party can carry the State, next'year if it will get to work and nominate a good ticket. He believes his party Is strong after defeat, li. F. Shlvely. of South Bend, and Allen Zollars. of -Fort Wayne; are also candidates for the nomination. - Another candidate Is John G. Shanklln. Kx-Judge- J. I. New, of North Vernon, will also try for the nomination. It is hard to gt light-on tho subject of who will be candidates for the other nominations to be made. The men who ran and were defeated last year can have them, It is said, but they do not seem anxious to repeat experiences of .1 year ago. The free silver wing of the party is still alive. The executive committee met yesterdav. Among those present were Fred T. Ixftin, editor of the American Bimetallism He says there are plenty cf free silver men in this and other States. "There Isn't a doubt In my mind." said he. "that a majority of the Democrats in Indiana are for free silver." He paid, however, that if they allow the gold money men to get control they cannot mako themselves felt. Members of the executive committee declare the organization is growing: stronger. , 1 FUNERAL 0$ MR. HEELER. Home Service liy Ilcv. T. A. Goodwin Maxonl Order at the Cemetery.
