That he will hold on until next Monday night, at least, is to him a cause for much self felicitation, and even robustious enjoyment. The member from the rear ranks almost explodes with chuckles when he contemplates the club in its chagrin at having to keep him in its fold for a bit of a time yet. The high private's days as a member of the club are numbered. He recognizes this, but says he is going to have some fun for the $6 a year which he has been obliged to pay as dues. This fun, his lawyers say, will consist partially in plaguing the club, and perhaps earring the matter of his expected dismissal up as high as the Court of Appeals of New York State.

Mr. Ehrenberg actually seems to be enjoying the pending fight. Mr. Ehrenberg is to be "railroaded," as he calls it. for an alleged insult to Slate Quarantine Commissioner Frederick H.

Schroeder, a fellow member of the Seward Club. The Eagle, one day last week, told about the alleged insult and the charges brought by Mr. Schroeder against the offending member, who delights to be known as a "high private," etc. At the time of the publication Mr. Ehrenberg's dismissal was scheduled for last night, but.

when this was published the high private had not been formally notified that charges were on file against him, and he said in his interview that if he was dismissed last night he would go to the courts. He claimed that he had to be given a week's notice in which to prepare an answer, under the bylaws of the club. He was right in this, and the members of the governors' board saw it. So, on the very day on which publication of the rumpus was made, a formal notification of the charges against him were sent by the secretary to Mr. Ehrenberg.

This notification is as follows: "Seward Republican Club, "625 Marcy Avenue, "Brooklyn, N. Sept. 12, 1902. "Mr. E.

In regard to the statement that the carriers of the rural service are now receiving twice the amount of salary that they did when the service was flrst started, 1 wish simply to state that while it Is true that their pay has Increased, their labors have almost A rural free delivery carrier is to day doing more work than a great many postmasters. He has to pay for his wagon, and generally two horses, and has other expenses in addition, so that, take it all in all. he receives not a dollar more than he is entitled to." The work of the rural free delivery is increasing every day. It is a splendidly managed service, and in Mr. Machen has for Its head a level headed, practical business man, and one possessed of extraordinary administrative ability.

He is running the service on strictly business principles, and the result has been that it is being commended by both Democrats and Republicans in all parts of the country where it has been introduced. A. B. A. Annual Report of the New Commissioner General to Contain Important Suggestions.

politically by his action, and can look for nothing at the hands of Republican voters in the future." It was to day that the Speaker has not only thrown up the ghost in his own district, hut that he does not propose to work for the success of the ticket elsewhere. Ho has notified Chairman Bahcock to cancel all the engagements that had been made for him to speak during the coming campaign. I'nder the circumstances it is very likely that Chairman Ilabcock is glad to strike Henderson's name from the list of speakers, as be would be a source of embarrassment to the party in the light of the developments of the past few days. Mr. BabcocU had booked the Iowa man for a number of speeches in important districts throughout the East and Middle West, and he was counted on to dc much good.

General Henderson is a very forceful speaker of the sledge hammer type, and has always been regarded as a power on the stump. It Is also learned that when the first news came out of his intention to give up the race for Congress such leaders of the party as Hanna, Allison and Spooner sent strong telegrams to him, imploring him to remain in the field. General Henderson ignored all of these appeals. EilED. ALLEN Entered into nest.

Primitive Flemish art is exhibited In religious pictures and portrats by Meralinc, David, Van Eyck, Bouts and an unknown painter mannered hard, Bometimes repellent in subject, but unquestionably sincere. An English translation of the literary contents Js appended to each number of Los Arts. One says on opening the September number of the International Studio and seeing the frontispiece, "Corot!" But the name appended to this characteristic landscape is that of E. A.

Walton. The only thing that does not suggest Corot is that the horses and riders in the foreground are better drawn than they would have been by the Frenchman. Other examples of the Scottish painter's work show his specialty of the figure. There is a quiet distinction in his work, and a practiced certainty discovered through the broad handling. Some monotypes by Edward Ertz are interesting enough to make one wish to seo more.

The decorative pieces by Jessie M. King are In the manner of Aubrey Beardsley, but have not the ugliness and pessimism of that draftsman. Recent art is shown in pictures after Raffaelli, Collet, Laurent, Simon, Garrido, Prlnet, Ren ouard, Baertsoen, Bacon, Ganz, a hotiy colored figure by West, a portrait In color of East, a shepherd in pastel by Millet, some German prints and a number of porcelains and furnishings.

"Already the board of governors has held a star chamber meeting and heard only one side of the matter," said Lawyer Ehrenberg, "and they have enough votes to recommend hl3 dismissal. In the club Schroeder has enough cohorts to carry this out. I am a member of the club, and under ordinary circumstances I would resign, but I think I'll stay just to worry them." The lawyers intend to take a stenographic report of the hearing so that they can carry the matter to court.

Their ground will be that Mr. Ehrenberg was tried by a prejudiced board. They say that one reason the board delayed sending formal notification of the charges was that hey didn't want Mr. Ehrenbcrg's answer to be made public before the Schroeder's side won out by an immense majority, and the Schroeder influence in the club now is stronger than ever. The president, Samuel Clogg.

was an anti Schroeder man or at least one of the reformers who were so badly beaten. Ex Assemblyman Ash is one of the witnesses against Ehrenberg. This Bide claims that Ehrenberg was sore because he has not been given a soft, good paying berth. It is true that Ehrenberg was formerly a supporter of Schroeder, but he explains his present attitude as a reformer by saying, "Well, you know how it is in politics." A GOLDEN ROD ETJCHBE. Mrs.

The most important change recommended in the present law, however, is that relating to the exclusion of anarchists. It is proposed to exclude all anarchists or persons who believe in or advocate the overthrow by force or violence of all government or of all form of law, or the assassination of public officials. Another important amendment of the existing law that Is proposed requires an ability to read the English or some other language on the part of aliens more than 15 years of age.
