An astounding condition of affairs in the office of the Secretary of State has just come to light, Discoveries have beea made by Secretary Waite, who in his report to Governor Markham makes a startling revelation to the effect that many valuable documents have been found to be missing ; the records of the State Secretary’s offices have been tampered with and otherwise mutilated ; that valuable sets of books forming an important and necessary part of the complement of the office records have been abstracted, and-'in general, that papers and documents have been miserably jumbled and scattered in many places other than -their proper location. In his report, Secretary Waite refers to the lax methods which’ characterized the conduct of his predecessors’in office, whereby through an unwise spirit of _ accommodation free and easy access to the vault and arebives was accorded to all applicants, regardless of distinction, He discovered that in a single box containing a certain class of documents ten papers of more or less consequence had been abstracted, and were to ali intents and purposes irretrievably lost. Documents ranging in number from one to five were found to be miss-ing from a great many other boxes. In speaking of the matter Mr. Waite expressed surprise that the revelations had become known, inasmuch as his report to the Governor had not been. officially published, but he freely discussed the matter with a reporter. ‘‘When 1 took charge of this office,” he said, ‘‘I saw that everything was ina fearful jumble: I-noticed that some volumes _of the Supreme Court decisions were miss— ing, as were also several copies of the United States Statutes. When I inquired of one of the gentlemen who had been employed during the regime of my predecessor, as to the whereabouts of the missing books, he informed me that he guessed. they had been: “I immediately issued an order to the effect that they should allow no books, documents or property of any kind to be , taken away; that any person, regardless of distinction, desiring to examine documents or other records, should only be permitted to do so in the office, and within the view of at least one of my clerks, and that,” said . .Mr, Waite impressively, ‘‘has ever since constituted a rule of this office, that has been inflexibly adhered to. “I have made not asingle exception, for instance,” the Secretary contmued, ‘‘a Judge of the Supreme Court came in here one day, and wanted tu take away a volumn of Supreme Court decisivus, but I informed him as to the rule of my ‘office regarding the book’ and records, and told him that under no cireum_stances could an exception be made, ‘This “course was necessary tor the preservation of the State property, and for my own protection as well. ‘‘It had been customary during the terms.of my predecessors (referring to Dan Burns and Hendricks) for people to go into the vaults, take out a box filled. with valuable. ddvaments, and -takewhatever the chose, put them in their pockets, and go ont with them, with the ostensible intention of going with them to " the State Library, where they might make transcripts of them. ,As a consequence, many of the documents taken in this way: mever found their way back to this office. ‘‘In this connection I will also state that in many instances persons would not take the trouble to.replace the papers in the boxes, and at the time of closing up the clerk whose duty it became to replace everything had no means of knowing where some of the papers belonged except by referring to the index, and this was apparently too troublesome, so you may see how easy it was to jumble everything. ‘‘Whenever I have found a paper to be missing I have placed a card on the box wherein it should be and designated the contents of the document and noted the date of the discovery of its loss.” Mr, Waite and his deputy, Mr. Stevens, have been considerably distressed over the state of affaiss, and have spent many weary hours in trying to discover the full extent of the damages to records and the missing papers, but it seems to be an endless task for them, +o + Notes for Women.

The habit has spread so far as to _ elicit an indignant protest from the ‘‘Lancet,” which is comsidered’ the leading medieal journal of England. Other papers have joined in condemuing what they very properly call ‘‘a piece of false pretense and immoral assumption.” They say that’ the habiliinent of the purse is just as much her distinctive regimental as the red coat is of her Majesty’s soldiers, and that she, and she alone, has the right to wear the pretty drese which is the insignia of her calling, The leaders of London fashion have Leen appealed to to frown down upon. such desecration of a deservedly porbin uniform.

Mr: Ball, on approachitig the door of his bedroom, was admitted by his wife, who had gotten out of bed. The door was opened, and Blake also crowded in, when Ball , told him to go away, as his wife was partly disrobed and that he would go up to the office and settle with him. Blake refused, and had the pistol in his hand been in good condition Ball might have been killed, as the former had every advantage until the latter secured his rifle. It is claimed that Blake was not in his right mind and acted wildly about the matter. . Ball immediately surrendered to the officers and was examined before Justice.
