Last week, it was announced that Postmaster General New would continue in office. Whether or not there was any connection, it was coincidentally announced that Mr. Slemp would retire. So the tall man with high forehead, prominent eyes, long nose, large chin, he who stalked through the corridors of the White House Office so swingingly with silk hat, cutaway and cane, will depart thence-but not to a great distance. He is to resume law practice with the firm of Good, Childs, Bobb & Westcott of Washington and Chicago (James W. Good, head of the firm, is a onetime Congressman from...

My mouth is changed, too, having become larger and wrinkled at the corners. Behold what...
...hornless. Its head tapers to a point, its lips are soft and flexible, which indicates that it feeds upon foliage. In its upper jaw it has no teeth. Its tail resembles that of an ass. The coloring of the okapi is remarkable; cheeks and jaws are yellowish-white; forehead and muzzle chestnut red; large, ass-like ears red fringed with black. The neck, shoulders, barrel and back vary from sepia and black to deep red; the belly is blackish; the tail bright red with a black tuft. The hind quarters and hind and fore legs are pale cream color...
