Hen. Aciullla Jones Nominated for the Position Sketch or Hla Busy Life. Tte question of selecting a successor io rcslinssler Wildman was yesterday sattled in the nomination by President Cleveland cf Mr. Aqnilla Jone, one of the oldest aod best known citizens of Indisnapcli3. Tha appointment was bulletined at 1 o'cloc'c, and the news spread to all parts of the city and was soon upon tbe tongue of every one rg on the street. Mr. Jons wr.i the recipient of the warmest congratulations from his best cf political and personal friends, among the latter there beirg a great many Republicans wbo seemed gratified that one to wcrthyrad been relecfel for such an impcitant trust. Meridian street merchants, iriesreclive of patty, had sect telegrams to the Pmident and Tv'stmester General urging h:s tfppcintrxcnt, acd when the n9ws cui6 they turned cut to add their nratulations Hid stake Ibe hand cf the tuccpsifnl apparent. While lunching at Sherman's Mr, Jones receivfd a largo number of 1Ü3 flier dr, end durioc the afternoon wai tha recipient cf still fnrther congra'.cUtions. Jndfcd, one would hardly suspect that so much enthusiasm could ?row out of an appointment, but the fict that it didtijconc)nEie evidence oi the measure of feeling wh'ch has been worked up by tho strasld which has existed here and at Wa?hicston for tbe rast two weeks. The pleasure mAniftfcied by the peop'ewa3ftli the more complimentary to Mr. Jones cn account of tho feet that it was not limited to tbe adherents cf either political party. Tho Republicans better selection could havo been made, and ere declared that it reflected credit upon the administration and would sivo tu a man of f-trocg, practical sense and good business habits in the Postoilice. Aquilla Jones, the new appointee, is sev-enlj-fonr years cf ee, having bcea born in S okes, near Foreythe ('oanty. North CrolIra. In 1 1 1 , and removed with hl parents to Indiana, lecatiu? at Columbas, Parthclomew County, 1831. One year later he cast his firet vol?, supporting Acdre.w Jackson for the Presidency, and tin ce that time has alwass voted with and worked for the party. He served as Postmaster at Cclnmtuä under three different administrations, embracing xzoit of the time between 1S3S and 1SÖ4 He took tho census cf Partholortew Connty under 'an Barca's aproirtmentin 1810, and again under President Tilmore in 1S50. In the session of 112 3 he repretenttd his county in the Slate Legislature. He was appointed by President Pierce Indian Aeenfc for Washington Territtry, but he declined the appointment. He was then tendered a like aeeccy forNsw Mexico, but this be also declined. In 18.V be was elected Treasurer cf State and served two jesrs, but dcclixed a renominatiou at the er.d of that tim. In 173 he was elected PreFident of the Indianapolis Rolling Mill Ccrnyacy, having held the cfiice of treasurer for several years, and he occupies the former pc.eiticn now. Roth in bis private and pnblic character Mr. Jones is the peer cf any xcan in the Union, and his Jong aad utefnl career ha3 drawn around him, a larce circle of devoted friends. He will enter epen the discharge of his duties under the nie st favorable au?picps, and his well known character is a sutlicient guarantee that tbey will be discharged with honesty end ndelity. Though cuveaty f jur j ears of 8ge, Mr. Jenes ia a well preserved man, and n-ay be ca:d to possess, in its fnll msaro, the indomitable energy which was a distinguishing characteristic of his youth and earirer manhood. In cenveuation with the new appsiatse yesderdsy afternoon, he ?ald that he had not formulated any plans concerning the office. Since he became an applicant, he had been quite busy with his private affairs, and supposed it would be time enouch to consider the poitefhee question when the aopointment was mcde. As it has been twenty years or more since he was Postmaster, he expected to find many new thlng3 connected with the position; in fact he did not now know what hia duties or his powers would te. Ia KspoDte to a qoestloi, Sir. Jones slid that he could not speak advmdly concerning chances in the office, and he therefore preferred not to epsak at all. Indianapolis Wins Again. A telegram received from Atlanta, Ga., yeEterday, states the Indianapolis Club defeated the local nine by a sere of 7 to 3. This is certainly good news to the lovers of the National pastime in this citv, for Atlanta beasts of one ot the strongest clubs south of Louisville. Tbe Tails City nine was ignominiously defeated by the Atlanta nine on one occasion this season. Feline Sagacity. A little story in which a cat played the part of a humanitarian was toldto a Sentinel reporter yesterday. It appears that about 2 o clcck Friday morning Mrs. Hannah Coyls, residirg at 74 Cincinnati street, wa awakeael by a house cat clawidg and pulling

at the cover on tbe bed and ming a3 if in distress. Upon looking no tin rut iumted from tbe bd. and Mr. Coyle discovered that tbe window curtains were oi fire. By prompt action the tire was extinguiebed without calling nnon tb department, and Mrs. Cojle, who is a widow, and was alone in tbe room, believes that the afety of her residence and posibly hr own life Is due to the stgacity of th? cat. which undendtedty ditcoverfd and appreciated the danger and warned tbe widow.

A Floral Party. There is nothing that adds so greatly to the freshness and brghtness of the surroundinps of a social gstberirg as the presence ot beautiful and frsgrant flowers, unless it be the smiling faces of the lovely ladies. This will be apparent to these who attend the College Avenue Rink to nigtit, a floral party being given at this popular resort. Tha conservatory of Mr. Anthony Weigand has ben almost denuded of its bright colaring for this purpese, each lady present receiving a handsome bonqnet. Beal Eaiat Transfer.

In addition to the articles on the engasment between ihe "Monitor" and tho "Merrimac," written by erüctrs of both vessels, which appear ia the March number of the Century, Cspi tin Ericsson is writing a paper to be prinwd in an eirly number of the tame iagazine, making record of the cirenmetances attending the invention of the "Monitor." and treating a!sä of the eng8gement in Hampton Roids. The March Century contains an article on the Soudan, written by General R. E. Colston, formerly ol tho Confederate army, and later on the general staff of ths Egyptian army. In the latter tervics Lc commanded two expeditions cf exploration in the Soudsn, traveliog on all the principal caravan routes and er etdii: two years iu the towns and among the trib? which are frequently nentioced in connection with El Mahdi's rebellion. Tne ait;cie is illustrated with more than twenty picture?. j "The Rrain cf Man; It3 Architecture and Requirement?," is the title of a paper which Dr. A. L. Ranney, of New York, contributes to the March Harper's. This Is a thoroughly eciertific, jet highly popular, presentation of the Jätest knowledge of the brain, which should Interest every one who has a brain. There is totbirg more marvelous than the recent progress of science in this direction, and a number cf diagraaiahelpto make clear to the reader how far scientists believe in the localization of function, and to what extent phrenology has a ecientific basis, Washington is fast growing, in the esteem of -tourists, to becnocf the most beatiful capitals of the world, and the drift of literary and fashionable people towards it, as a winter reiort, i3 giving it a new social importance aside from its political Interest. Ia lice with the new development is the growth of a domestic architecture that gives it much of its external character. An interesting paper, piving "A Glimpse of Some Washington Homes," in their exterior and interior architecture, has been prepared tor tbe March Harper's Magazine, by Mr. E. W. Lightner. Why II litjoice. I Communicated. 1 Since the election many Democrats through your paper hsve given expressions to their opinions, hopes and desires. The following is a ehort expression of my own which I desire you to publish. Among the Democratic host there ia great joy; some rejoice for one reason and some for another. For myself there are two reasons why I rejoice over our victory that entirely overshadows all others. 1. In the march of the children of Israel from Egypt to the promised land the Almighty selected certain men to carry and bear aloft the ark of the covenant of God. So in car day the Democratic party for the last thirty years has been the only party in these United States that truly loved the Union, and our flag has in truth been the only flag that repeesented and tried to protect and de fend constitutional liberty. Irejoics to see this day, when the eld and young men, to whem Viod has intrcsted the ark of the covenant of constitutional libarty, have been able once egain to bear their flag to the front in the triumph of yictort a victory that I trust will restore our Union and make us strong in the boads of peace and friendship eo that ths hateful cry cf 'solid South" or "solii North" may no more be beard, but Instead thereof the joyous cry of solid America thsU ring out from one side of this Union to the other. '2. Tbe second cans of mv joy relates to T. A. Hendricks personally. I have observed

for seme years an eßort in our State to bwui new meu, and to forca the r k aad file of rnr t arty after new leader. When at Fort Weyne last summer I was reqaested to p;rmil my name to be need as ona of the deleafs. I tcld the man that I was for tha old ticket That to carry Indiana the name of Bendricks was abjolutely indlsosnsDle,and under co circnm tancrs would I vote for any other man ; thatparty leaders would vote fcr eny candidate, but that Hendricka when he get down to tbe ds'nterested rank and file of our people would develon a p-ronal ttrenpth that woid i be absolutely invincible. 1 am glad that the correctness of that opinion has been fully vindicated. I wai glad tohear tbe Demcciaiic shout of joy ia xattocitioa of Ins nomination at Caicasro On his last icnr from Indianapolis to South Fad, on Frday and Saturday before tn election, tb tbcusands of friends that gladly met aid cheend him at tvery station prft'eo'ed to bim tbe grandest exhibition of fnndihip, conf.dencn and trust that ha ever been givfn to any man In the Sta'e of Indiana. For thirty years Hendricks has stoo l as our leader :n the front of tne battle. More of tbe envencmed thafts ot th enemy hava been hnr'ed at bim tnan at any other livme man in the Stats of Indiana. For this arid mcny other reasons it was meet and Dröper that in this last contest for justice and rijht fce should be our leader. Iu his success and victory I sincerely rejoice, and hopfl and trust that it will once agiin restoie to oar pop!etb blef&ines of fcrbearao'Ä kiridnena and friendship. A. F:.lvj-.

Exploring along this wady a party of our men came upon six dead and four wounded Aral s lying under a bushy dwarf mimo.-a tree. The soldiers had an interpreter with them, and the Arabs were called upon to Eurrtnder and come out. That they said tbey could not do; would the soldiers there fore ccme aad take them. The four wounded men still held their spears, in their hands. " ery good," said our soldiers, "put down your spears, and we will see you are well treated, ana do ail we can to cure your wounaa." The answer of the four Arabs came fierce and concise: "Pat down our spears, infidel doss! j;y uod and the propnet, nevsrr' There was a crack of Martini-Henrys You can guess tha rest.
