4 THB return of John E. Lamb from Washington after the completion of his term as Congressman, renders it appropriate to say that his career in that offioe has been valuable to his constituents and creditable to himself. Few young men serving their first term have secured so general a recognition from their colleagues for ability or obtained bo wide an influence. His friends have reason to be proud of the record he has made for himself. .i

NOTICE is published elsewhere from James T. Johnston, congressman for thin district, of a competitive examination for the cadetship in the military academy at West Point and in the naval academy at Annapolis. The youth of the district who thirst for glory on land or sea should charge the studies on which they are to be examined as if they were the enemy the successful can* didate is to be taught to fight.

Commenting on the Higgins appointment, which seems to have attracted much more attention in the east than it has been ..deemed deserving of in the west, the New York Sun, which, by-the-by, has not yet quite dug out from under the mountain that fell on it last November, is moved to say: "Is it true that Higgins of Baltimore was seen four years ago at the polls in the Clarksville district in Howard county, Maryland, imperfectly disguised, as the Baltimore Herald says, with "a beard a week or two old," and openly engaged in 'terrorizing quiet citizens" by means of a bottle of whiskey which protruded from his overcoat pocket?

If this is true, there ought to be some way of establishing the fact. No $2,750 clerk should be convicted on hearsay testimony. Very likely the whiskey has all been absorbed by thirsty Democrats, and it may be hard to find even the empty bottle. Yery likely the immature, mugwumpian beard, which is so important a circumstance in the case, has either fallen before the inexorable edge of Higgin's razor—we hope he had a sharp one—on his long ago developed into a luxuriant growth which will make identification difficult Nevertheless, murder will out. Higgins's accusers ought not to despair.

But perhaps Higgins has reformed since then. Perhaps he is no longer a politician of the Zach Chandler stripedrinking whiskey and terrorizing quiet citizens.

Is it true that Higgins has manifested in past years a fondness for playing cards for money? The late Gen. Garfield «Tid numerous other American statesmen have combined devotion to 'practical politics with a more or lees conspicuous weakness for other games of chance. It may be that even Higgins knows the jack of spades from a chromo lithograph of Dorman B. Eaton. But perhaps he has repented and become good.

Suppose that, in fact, Higgins of Baltimore is a reformed politician, who does not drink whiskey nor play poker nor terrorize quiet citizens any more, but who has resolved to give his whole mind to the humble duties of the purely clerical office which he has been fortunate enough to obtain.

THURSDAY, MARCH 26,1885.

THE new administration appears to l)e jogging along in a familiar, businesslike way, as if it were not a creature of yesterday. It is a noteworthy matter how soon our people adjust themselves to a change of this kind, and how the chimeras, cooked by heated imaginations during the progress of political campaigns, vanish as soon as a new President is installed. There's a good deal of common sense in this country.

MR. CHARLES KERN is working upa country boOm for the marshalship. The Peoria Freeman indorses him to the extent of a column.—[Chicago Newa

This is our own old time townsman, who is, by-the-bye, in Terre Haute now visiting relatives and friends.' His friends are pushing him for the United States marshalship of the northern district of Illinois, the place now held by "Long" Jones, the political Man Friday of Senator Logan. Mr. Kern's appointment would be a very popular one for he is admirably qualified for the discharge of the duties of the place. It is gratifying to know that he is almost oertain to be appointed.

PERHAPS Patten meant that Dan Voorhees was a better friend of rebel soldiers than were Grant or Garfield. If so, he was correct.—[Indianapolis Newa

Perhaps he meant that Daniel W. Voorhees persisted in pushing the just and righteous arrears of pensions act wen after it was vetoed by President Grant, and succeeded in securing its enactment into a law after Grant had ceased to be president. The arrears of pensions act gave private soldiers who had been disabled or wounded and were sick ana in need a little recompense for heir loss. These pensions to the sick •ad needy privates were not large and would look small in companion with the #13,500 pay of a general on the retired ist, who already had an inoome of $15,000 per annum, but they were sorely needed to keep the wolf from the door of the destitute and deserving privates who had been disabled in fighting for their country. Senator Voorhees' friends can well afford to hold up their heads when comparisons are made between his vote for and Grant's veto of that measure-

fuse MM entrance into the upper atmosphere? Is there a hand cruel enough to drag down the repentant and struggling Higgins?"

"It is understood," says one in position to know, (that the President will reoommend to Congress next fall legislation which will give him the authority to veto special items in the appropriation bills. It is doubtful whether Congress will give him this privilege. All of the jobbing members will be against it. If the President has the power to veto items in the appropriation bill he would hftve it in his power to kill every job that has gotten through Congress, for of late years jobs have been able to get through Congress only by being smuggled into the appropriation bills. The John Roach subsidy which passed the House at the last session oould not have passed as an independent proposition.".,

SECRETARY MANNING has undertaken a big job in the way of simplifying the system of keeping the accounts in the Treasury Department, which experts describe as cumbersomely complicated. Should he succeed in doing so, and at the same time retain all necessary checks and balances, a great deal of clerical labor will be dispensed with and much money be saved to the people.

POTTSTOWN, Pa., March 21.—The nail factory, nail plate mill and Hope mill of the Pottstown Iron Co. closed. It employs 600 men. Lack of orders and want of storage room caused the stop.

COAL MINERS STRIKE.

Likelihood of the Trouble Extending. PITTSBURG, March 21.—The railroad coal miners convention met here to-day and was largely attended. Reports from delegates are very encouraging to the strikers. Of thirty-seven pits along the railroad, twenty-two are closed on account of the strike, ten are in operation at the price demanded by miners and five working at the reduction. To-day ends the second week of the strike and it seems no nearer settlement than when commenced. Ten thousand men are idle and it is estimated they have already lost in wages $100,1)00.

LONDON, Mch. 25. —Excitement exists here over reports from Constantinople to the effect that the Porte has asked the advioe of Bismarck in regard to a Turoo-Russian alliance against England.

Earl Granville to-day sent for the Turkish embassador and Hassan Fehmy Pasha, special envoy of the Sultan, and had an interview with them. It is rumored that the interview was owing to a report from Constantinople of a Russo-Turkish alliance against England.

LONDON, March 25.—The Cabinet held a special session this afternoon on the Afghan difficulty and resolved to firmly demand of Russia that she commence forthwith the work of delimitating the Afghan frontier in accordance with the understanding under which Sir Peter Lumsden and the British surviving party passed so many months in the Ameers dpminions. All officers belonging to the British Indian army and now in Europe on furlough have been ordered to immediately rejoin their respective regiments.

The orders came from the British war department, the destination of the meats being Woolwich. It will require two weeks to fill the oMers now on hand. The Armour Packing Company is also in receipt of orders to supply 5,400,000 pounds.

Storrs appealed to Judge Gresham to step between his clients and the penitentiary. The Judge was powerless to slay the execution of the sentence. Blodgett was next appealed to and he ordered the United States Marshal, who has the prisoners in charge, not to take them to Joliet before the 24th. In the meantime the motion for a writ of error is being argued before Judge Gresham, who will probably render his decision on Monday.

JIMMY SMITE

A Court Page Who Practiced on the Court's Signature.

A Successful Forgery of $20 Discov ered This Morning on Shannon's Bank.

From Saturday's daily.

Diminutive Jimmy Smith, the 12 year old page of the Circuit court, turns out to be a deeper villain than was thought yesterday, when he was detected in effort to cash a bogus check at McKeen's bank for $30 to which he had forged the name of his employer, Judge William Mack.

When Jimmy was arrested there was found in his possession two checks he had drawn up in Judge Mack's name, One was on Shannon bank for $20 March 19th and the other was on McKeen's bank for $80, dated March 20th. These he hadn't presented yet. This morning it was discovered that on March 2nd he had perpetrated a successful forgery on Shannon's bank and drew $20 on a forged check in Judge Mack's name. Jimmy admitted the forgery this morning and said he gave the money to his mother. Mrs. Smith, who is a deserving widow, was sent for, She said Jimmy didn't bring home his wages for three weeks and one day he handed her $18 in a bulk. She took it and thought nothing of it. Jimmy said he spent his wages "setting them upr to some boys. He wouldn't tell who they were. jimmy became page in the Circuit Court room on Judge Mack's accession to the bench. He had previously been employed in Judge Mack's office and on one occasion $6 in silver and Jimmy disappeared simultaneously, though at the time Judge Mack did not connect the two together. Jimmy got a dollar a day as page, and earned extras by going on errands for the lawyers, who liked him. The principal reason for his appointment was that he oould help support his widowed mother, who washes for a living and has a hard time keeping up a large family of small children.

Jimmy is very small for his age. He was very quiet, and spent most of his time at first practicing on Bailiff Jim Tolbert's name, but when he found Jim hadn't any money in bank he quit him and went to work on Judge Mack's signature, which is hard at any time to counterfeit. The Shannon's bank forgery is a little better than the one on McKeen's bank, though a glance ought to tell a person acquainted with Judge Mack's signature that it wasn't his. Jimmy signed it foil "William Mack," while the Judge writes it "W. Mack." Mr. Shannon and Mr. Anderson say the boy was in the habit of coming there so often on business for Judge Mack that they never suspected for a moment that anything was wrong, and the check was cashed without scarcely looking at anything but the amount. The bank will of course have to lose the money.

Jimmy never flinched this morning when in the presence of his mother and a number of spectators Judge Mack questiraed him about his forgeries and upbraided him for his conduct TheJudge thought a good deal of the boy and sympathized with the condition of his mother, and he said it was a most unpleasant duty for him to sentence him to the reform school until he was of age, which, however, he was compelled to do. Jimmy told the Judge he lost nothing by the forgery. The boy didn't show the least repentance. His mother wept and between her sobs asked that Jimmy not be taken from her but Judge Mack said it was for the boy's good, as he had shown a surprising knowledge of things criminal, for one so young.

Bailiff Jim Tolbert says Jimmy usen to ask him many questions about whed he drew his money, how much he had left, and where he put it. All this while

The boy, who was implicated in the robbery himself, proved a witness of extraordinary tact for one so young, and Jimmy put in all his time drinking down the testimony and admiring the youth. He got right up at the side of the witness so he wouldn't miss anything, and after it was over, when everybody was remarking about the smartness of the witness, Jimmy was heard by some one to say: "You bet that fellow was sharp enough to get ahead of the lawyers." While the Trump murder case was being tried in the Superior Court room Jimmy deserted his duties in the other court entirely and was an interested spectator all the time. His mind seemed to run on criminal trials, and he took interest in nothing else.

Same one was heard to say tins morning that if Jimmy worked around the court room very much longer there is no telling what he would do.

JohnHatz, a boy of 16, was committed to the reform school along with Jimmy. TTi« mother said he stopped out late at nights and she could get no good out of him* She wanted him to get a taste of the reformatory and thought it would do him some good.
