CITY CLERK CONJECTURES ,
Cotifltdcrntilo Guess Work As lo "What
tlio New Council Will Uo Meet *
to Tnko Action on 1'cr *
clvnl's Dentil.
for IMnccs.
Thcro begin to bo sonio conjocturings
ns to who will bo the now city clerk , or
whoihor tbcru will bo any clinngc inatlc.
Tlio present incumbent , Mr. Unlrytnplu ,
had n hard tiinu yetting In , his preilct'cs-
ser refusing to glvo up tlio seal until the
law was HJinkim over his licad , and the
council insisted on his yielding to Mr.
Dalryinplu , whom they hud ehosen to
serve in that capadly. Now that an
other city election has been held there
begin to lie agitations as to whether a
new clerk ought to bo chosen. Mr. Dal-
ryinple has tilled the ollico witii faithful
ness and ability , and all concede that
theru is no need of a change , except to
satisfy sonic ono who wants to get the
place , He lias become $ n familiar now
with the duties and with the details of the
olllec thai ho is in ore valuable than any
new man can be , but in politics this is
little thought of.
It is hinted that sonic of the friends of
'Squirt ) Uurko will make a move to get
him chosen as city clerk. 'Squire IJurko
is a man who has been so long connected
witii the city business that lie is perfectly
familiar not only with its present details
but with its history , and his services are
Valuable , but among those of his friends
who personally would like to have him
given the position are some who will op
pose it beeau.se they sco no good reason
lor displacing Mr. iMlrymple.
Another project is on foot. Under th
law this city has the right to one more
justice of the nonce. The law provides
that the township shall have two justices ,
and when there is within the township
an incorporated city one or two more
justices may bo chosen , nnd ono or two
more constables. Already there are
three justices and tltreo constables here ,
so that when ono more is chosen the limit
will bo reached. It is suggei > tud that the
additional justice be added. In order lode
do so the township trustees , ten days be-
lore ( ho annual election , which is to beheld
hold next f-ill , shall post up notices an
nouncing this fact. Then the pconlo will
have the opportunity of choosing a jus
tice. It is understood that a move will bo
inado to choose 'Squiro Burke for this ad
ditional justice. If ho would accept
this position there is no doubt
the people would gladly give it to him ,
but his views on the matter have not been
learned.
It lias been whispered that Harry Hun
ter of the Nonpareil was looking to the
city clerkship. This he denies , and seems
as ignorant as to how the report started
as erybody else.
It seems pretty well settled that the new
chief of police will bo J. M. Matthews.
The nolico headquarters are lobe consoli
dated with the marshal's ollice , so as to
leave the room , in the city building for
the use of the city engineer. The present
arrangement by which a night and day
jailer arc to bo turmshcd the city jail will
probably be modified so as to be more
economical. The plan is suggested that
each ollicer bringing a prisoner into the
city jail shall remain there as jailer until
the next ollicer comes with a prisoner.
This would bo rather hard if no mere ar
rests tire made than by the present foreo.
An ollicer who brought in a man might
have to btay on duty watching tlio jail lor
three days before another fellow was
brought in. Some plan is to bo lixcd up
which will be cheaper than tlio present.

farm of P. Aycrs. Garner township , has

More Police Charges.
The old police force is being agitated
below the surface , and there is the
probability of there being an outbreak of
tlio old troubles. It seems pretty well
settled that most of the force will bo re
tired with the incoming of the now
administration , and some oi them are
therefore anxious to right themselves
before that chance comes. The charges
concerning the charity clothing and
other matters have been sustained by the
council committee in its report , and for
the members of the force thus placed
under a cloud to retire without clearing
it away docs not suit them. They have
been trying to plan some way to relieve
themselves from the blot placed on their
record. There was some talk of demand
ing another and nrj open investigation in
the hope of getting a more favorable
report. The mayor has left without
giving them any relief , and without com
mitting himself to the report by dis-
mising or censuring 'those iouml guilty
by the committee. Those who are under
the cloud see no prospect for relief in an
investigation , as that could not bo finished
before they will probably bo laid oil' duty
for good. The only scorning way is to
turn the tables on some ot those who
have not been concerned in the charity
clothing scrape but who squealed upon
tlio others. It is feared that some are
to bo retained on tlio now force , and
if these can bo placed upon the gridiron
and roasted it may let down the others
easy.
It is understood that charges nro being
preferred against one of the force , who is
thought by the others to have been act
ive in getting the recant investigation
stalled. Just what these charges will
amount to , or how they will bo handled ,
can only bo conjectured. A sensation is
promised quietly , but wiu'ther it will over
come to the surface or not is not known.
The theory seems to bo that if the olllcers
who Will uo culled on to retire , and upon
whoso record this cloud now rests , can
give a parting shot at .some others , it will
bo n happy linis. The scheme has got
so far as to have the charges partly writ
ten out , but the pu/.zlo seems to bo as to
how nc\t to move. Thociuerv is whether
lo lilo the charges with the acting mayor
or with the police committee. Ouo plan
fiiiggoitcd is to have tlio old police force
get all together and then invite the re
porters to hear them tell tales on each
other , and thus got the newspapers to air
up all the facts. If the force have such n
confessional and tell honi-stly all that
they know about each other , it would
make u pionio for tlio newspapers and
lnrnLsh sonio rich reading matter for the
public. It is said that some suoh coin > e
will ho developed within a day or two ,
uml that the fiilk-eru iiinv retiring under a
cloud art' bout on giving u parting thrust ,
clear to tnu 'illi. '

TIIK GHEAT SKATj OP ENGLAND.
" \Vlmt Its Fortunate Custodian llc-
ccivcs in Hank mill Money.
Now York Observer : The more hold
ing of tlio great seal of England entities
tiie fortunate custodian to tome $00.000 a
year , to immense patronage in church
and state , to be speaker in the hoiK-c of
lords , a privy counsellor , and the head of
all judicial authority in the kingdom of
Great Britain , and keeper of the royal
conscience , and lo rank ( next to the
royal family ) the second subject in
tlio realm. It is very dillicult , if
not impossible , to say when Eng
land first had a great seal. Seals
were not much used by our Anglo-Saxon
ancestors , but came latgoly into fashion
during the Norman reigns. The gilt
crosses or marks of Edward the Confessor
and other Saxon kings can scarcely bo
called seals , and partook more of the
character of signatures of an illiterate
a c ; but a grand and perfect seal of
William the Connueror exisls.havingthe
monarch crowned and throned on the one
side and mounted on horseback on the
other attitudes which have been invaria
bly observed to tlio present day. One re
markable circumstance connected with
the great seal is its progressive growth in
size as time advanced. Origimillyt800years
since , not larger lhanihe lop ot an ordi
nary modern teacup , it has been gradu
ally enlarged from ago to ago , till it
oilers now the size and appearance of a
ninfiin , and requires to Bo inclosed in a
tin box for protoolion. Indeed , so cum-
berous and unwieldy had the great seal
become that some three or four years
since an act of parliament passed con
taining very extraordinary provisions-
directing that all the minor and many ,
oven , of the more important documents
passing under it should , for tin ; future ,
be authenticated by a paper wafer , of
moderate size , which should be gummed
on the instrument , and bo deemed and
taken to bo the great seal itself.
The great sealhas only llireo times been
lost twice temporarily and once perma
nently. James II. , on leaving tlio king
dom on his abdication , threw the seal into
the Thames , whence , however , it was
next morning iishcd up nnd brought to
Whitehall. Lord Eldon buried it m his
garden in Queen square during one night
when his house caught lire , and ho
thought in the confusion it might bo
stolon. "And , " writes the chancellor in
his diary , "when the fire was extinguished
I quite forgol in Iho morning where 1 had
buried it , and while the carriage waited
to take mo to court , my lady and I and
all the household were digging witii
pieces of slick till wo luckily found it. "
Lord Thurlow , who always held tt dur
ing the night in his bed-room , hid it
actually carried off by burglars , from
whom it was never recovered. A privy
council was called the next day , a now
seal was rapidly made , and during the
remainder of his continuance in ollico
Lord Thurlow invariably deposited it of
a night under his pillow.
Down to 1817 the great seal itself was
made of copper ; since then silver has
been Iho melal omploved. It is in two
halves , somewhat like two very thick
bright tin saucepan lids fitting closely
together , their inner surfaces deeply
sculptured with the royal devices in
tended to bo formed on the wax when
squeezed between thorn. Instruments
having a limited duration are sealed with
yellow wax. Olhers , supposed to exist
in perpetuity , such as patent's of peerage ,
cto. , are exemplified under green wax ,
and in tlio case of some letters patent ,
likely to bo exposed to a good deal of
knocking about or journoyinir from place
to place , such as were the asni/.o commis
sions , the wax seal was stamped after
bclnir ingeniously inclosed in cream-
colored leather.
DEFENDING THE\JSE OF SLANG.
Mr. Bam Jones Snys There Are No
Grammar Schools in iicnvcn.
Everything must have a beginning , nnd
there is nothing like having a good start.
The old adage that "a bail ui'ginning
makes a good ending" is false in the na
ture of tilings. It is not true in farming ,
in merchandise , and , above all , it is
fatally false in religion. If I see a farmer
lazy m January , February and March I
pronounce him u failure. The crop ho
raises will prove it. If a young man
choosing toHudylaw spends hisovenings
with young ladies at their homes instead
of studying Blackstone ho may succeed
in some directions , but never as a lawyer.
There's a great deal in u iirst-class start ,
and all wo need is to follow this course in
religion. Your Chribliuns are lee slow-
moving. The devil can run a mile before
they get their boots off , and the con
sequence is hognts the game. You want
to put on u fuiriiead of Mean ) and side
track j-our old-fashioned , slow-going
engines.
Pd say to a southern audience : "You'll
neyer get there at that lick. " Of course
you western people don't use slang and
it jars your feelings. The fact is , you
Chicago people manufacture more slang
in ouo diiy tlitiu the south uses in ono
year. Thai's the truth unadorned , but ,
thiuik Uod , slang is not sinful Who
ovur heard of a grummur school being in
heaven ? We will get. along wilhoul
criticii there. Wo won't hnye tjmo for
critUeisiug gr.immor , rhetoric and spoil
ing. 1 dislike these verbal ci'itics. I
could stand to bo swallowed up by ft
whale , but I don't like being nibbled by
n lot of minnows. < I'd sooner bo
knocked down by n policeman than
pounded over the head with a rubber
balloon. A good mart , iocsn't like to bo
nlinoycu so.
You must make a good start and go
ahead. The spiritual engine must run at
the rate of a mile ft minute. The devil
will catch ni ) with any man who moves
heavenward at a slower rate. Now ho
can take a nap on the way , knowing well
it's no effort to catch up with you. Broth
ers and sislors , the licks that gave you ft
good start will keep you going. I would
not do after I gel religion that which I
would not have done while seeking it.
MARK TAPLEYS IN PETTICOATS.
The Innocent Amusement of the
Women SuirrnRlsta Who
Annually Convene.
From a Western Editorial : Tlio ox-
cclloiit but decayed ladies who assemble
nt Washinglon every February for the
purpose of impressing upon Iho con
gressional mind Iho beauty and wisdom
of woman sulTrage appear to bo about as
richly endowed with the laciilty of being
jolly under depressing circumstances
as the redoubtable Mark Tunloy himself.
Notwithstanding the uniform failure
which has attended their zealous and
persistent efforts to "boom" Iho cause of
"female emancipation" for that's
what they call it they como up smiling
Ibis year , as usual , apparently as confi
dent of ultimate success ns they were a
dozen years ajjo. From what aspect of
the situation , however , they are ublo to
extract any encouragement it is not easy
lo imagine.
In no part of tlio republic is woman
suffrage rccogni/.ed as a live issue ex
cepting in two or Ihrco sparsely .settled
territories , where woman herself is
something of a curiosity. The subject is
rarely alluded to by the public press ; the
pulpit gives it but scant attention ; popu
lar lecturers avoid it religiously under
penalty of finding their occupation * gone
and the politicians treat it with the most
contemptuous indifference.
And yet Susan B. Anthony bless her
venerable spinsterly soul believes , or
thinks she docs , that the struggle is al
most over and the day of triumph at
hand , and is down at Washington as port ,
chipper and saucy , as frisky and as full
of animal spirit as in tlio old limos , mak
ing it just ns lively for the senators and
members as possible. Monday Susan B.
with half a dozen or more of her sister
agitators , paid her respects to the
house judiciary committee , of which that
picturesque relic , J. Randolph Tucker , is
chairman. Of course "tho committee
was much interested" and gave "tho
ladies a very respectful hearing " So
runs the report , and its accuracy is
evident on its face , for the comniillco
had mot Susan B. before and know that
anything ia the way of light , airy
poi'Mllage would bo mere wanton defi
ance ot fate. The senate judiciary com-
millco , which includes such lively old
blades as Edmunds , Hoar , Evarts and
Pugh , is also booked ; for a visit from
Susan and her lieutcnanls , and will no
doubt conduct it&elfjwitu equal propriety
upon that solemni occasion , notwith
standing its well-known playful pro
pensities. All of which , wilt inspirn the
sisters with renewed hopes for the early
adoplion of their cherished sixteenth
amendment , while the country will
smio their hallucina
good-naturedly | at
tion. . , >
The fact is , however , that there is no
more prospect of the adoption of a
woman suflrago amendment to the con-
stiluliqn than there is fur the incorpor
ation in that revered , instrument of a
formal indorsement of God , as urged by
iv few cranks scattered qver the country.
There is no considerable section of pub
lic bontimeiit which is favorable to the
further extension" the electoral
franehise in any direction ; indeed , Iho
best opinion is that it has already been
too freely bestowed , and that if it wore
practicable to curtail the privilege it
would be tlio part of wise statesmanship
to do so. Wo have too many voters , not
too few a fact which is ns clearly , re
cognized by a vast majority of the in
telligent , thinking women ot the land
as it is by the great bulk of Iho men. It
is evident , as it has been ever since the
agitation began , that the women of the
United States do not want the ballot , and
until they do want it and want it badly ,
Susan B. and her lilllo band of on-
thn&iasts will not be able to force it
upon them. They would have realized
litis long ago but for an obliquity of
vision witii which people of ono idea are
usually alllicted.
