ashington June order was issued by General Sheridan for the garrisoning of Port Meyer, near Washington. The post will be commanded by Major Lewis H. Carpenter, of the Fifth Cavalry, who is stationed at Fort Supply, Indian Territory. The companies ordered hero are Company Fourth Cavalry, and Company Sixth Cavalry. The former is commanded by Captain Henry W.

Lawton, the famous Indian fighter. He is now in the field with his command in pursuit of the renegade Apaches. He will not report here until his services can be spared by General Miles, which means until the Indian campaign is completed. Company of the Sixth Cavalry, was engaged in fighting the Indians some years ago and saw a great deal of hard service. For the past few years it has been stationed in New Mexico.

The order regarding this company takes effect on the 1st of July. Secretary Lamar has revoked the order of March 26, 1886, withdrawing from entry lands within range 41, Colorado, which throws open to entry, by this action, about 200,000 acres of agricultural land. Secretary Lamar has refused to allow Mr. John C. Robinson to re-locate Baca Float No.

3, containing 99,289 acres, on the ground that he did not exercise his right within the time allowed by the act of June 21, 1860, which authorized a claimant to select and locate vacant lands not mineral, in the territory of New Mexico, in lieu of lands claimed by the town of Las Vegas. The secretary further decided that the land embraced by the original location was decided at the time to be non-mineral in character, and later discovery of mineral on the land cannot defeat their title, and that they are entitled to the lands within the original location as amended in 1866. Senator Sherman, who is already a con. siderable owner of real estate in East Washington, has just purchased about forty building lots in the northeast section of the city, and will soon commence improvements on this, his latest purchase.

Tuesday night, announcing that the President had lost a small fortune in real estate operations in or near that thriving city.

President Cleveland never took kindly to real estate investments. Judge Evans, of Illinois, called on the President Tuesday and had a very satisfactory interview. He is the father of the West Point cadet of this graduating class who is now under discipline for insubordination. Young Evans hectored by a lieutenant who is well-known to the faculty and to the cadets for his overbearing manners, and finally the young man went to him and told him privately that he had treated him in a very ungentlemanly manner and he would be obliged to him to change his manner.

Thereupon the cadet was tried and convicted of insubordination and sentence to lose all his privileges until August. He was graduated, but cannot receive his commission until August The President has been appealed to to remit the penalty so far as it has not yet been executed and he probably will do so. The board of directors of the American Telephone Company, report that, after a thorough investigation of the alTairs of tho corporation, they find everything in a satisfactory condition.

Mrs. Logan is much grieved over the matttjr and says if the guard is removed she will have tho body of her late husband brought to her home and deposited in a room that is to be a memorial hail until the State of Illinois is ready to receive it. Her friends are trying to induce Dr. Buck to withdraw objection to the military. LATB TTEHS.

And so the up-town streets are crowded with young girls, and one has a chance to look at them at and in tht'lr best. Are they pretty? Well, of course All girls are pretty. Xo polite man ever an iigly girl.

But girls are prettier than others. And so the Baltimore girls are prettiei than their pretty sisters here, and it is safe to say that there are a dozen beautiful Baltimore girls to one iiretty New-Yorker. Not that, the girls here are not admiralile and very nice to look at, for they are. INIost of them ai-e and of a tigure neither suggestive of too much feeding noi' yet of too much wadding. The waist circumference, too, seems to be about right.

But their chiefest charm is undoubtedly their walk. They carry themselves very w'ell. There is a taking decidedness about their walk, a springy elasticity in their step, wdiii'h, together wdth the lirm poise of the head, makes the New York girl impress you at the first glance that she is not a milk-and-water baby-faced d(dl, afraid to peep from under wing, but rather that she know's how to take care of herself, and to do it. Her face has not that delicate beauty, nor that rare, wonderful complexion, that is the pride and Joy of Baltimore, but she looks like a ievel-headed girl, who has a mind of her own, and sense and education enough to defend her convictions. In a word, while the Baltimore girl is a girl, the York girl is an girl, and both kinds are very, very nice to know and, if possible, to have.

I think I shed too many peeling the maternal onions.

Her parents had asked the professor for an interview, that he might hear the little girl recite. Mme. Felix w'iis very anxious about the appearance, she was so small and thin. Suddenly an idea struck her. She bought a dress in a second-hand clothes shop.

This she stuiied out with wadding from head to waist, so as to the want of natural development. Kai'hel was completely transformed, and her parents were delighted. I'hey took her to Samson, who, having asked the age of the girl, declared her iigure unlit for the stage. She was too fat, and not likely to grow. Mother Felix, in despair at what she had done, insinuated timidly that the girl w'as not so fat as she looked; that it not all natural.
