The curriers under the .Spanish sys
tem not only charged for the delivery
of mail matter, hut they rilled letters
freely, and itiade money by stealing
stumps from mail matter and selling
tliein. The letters and other grades of
mail matter would be forwarded with
out Kfamps, and the earrior at the other
end of the route would collect not only
for delivery, but for the stamps that
had been stolen. There was simply un
unpnralleled looseness In the conduct
of post office business, and every man
seemed to have license to steal wherever
he could. Kvcn newspapers would bo
stolen from bundles and sold for what
ever could be got for them.
Another form of corruption was evi
dent when the salary lists were ex
amined. There w as no scale of salaries.
In one eity a postmaster would receive
twice the salary that the postmaster of
a larger city received. Salaries seemed
to be arranged on the "pull" plan, with
the possibilities of division with the ap
pointing power afterward. J'lnccs thnt

TIIE REP0RT0RIAL SCOOP.

Scribe by a Conscienceless)
ton temporary.
A reporter named Jones on a daily in
St. Louis was detailed to interview the
(fovernor of another Rtate, who had
slipped into the city on a secret political
mission, says the San Francisco Argo
naut. He learned to his disgust that
Jackson, the star reporter of a rival
sheet, also proposed to cull in an hour.
Acting on Inspiration, he sent up a card
bearing Jackson's name and was
'promptly admitted. When he had
learned all he wanted lie asked, with
gross intentional impudence, whether
the Information wbb really true.
The governor turned purple. "D'y'
question mj word?" lie asked.
"Oh, don't get gay!" replied Jones
airily; "common governors cut no iee
with my office."
The old man foamed at the mouth.
uYou Insolent scoundrel," he roared,
"get out of my room!" That was ex
actly what Jones wanted and he went.
Presently Jackson showed up. "Here,
lxy," ho said, pompously, "take my
card to the governor." When the old
'man looked at the pastebourd he nearly
expired. "The blnnkety-blanked in
famous villuin!" he spluttered. "I
-never heard of such blankety-blunked
effronery in my life! Tell that mis-
creant if he or anybody else from his
infernal paper comes up here 1 II kill

The Pritish towns seem to have the
smallest number of paid firemen of any
cities in Kurope und Americu, says Mu
nicipal All'airs. The London lire brig
ade has about SCO men, about the same
number as lierlin. widen has only a
fourth of the population, und less than

(ilasgow has but 100 men to 800,000 pop
ulation; Leeds but 33 to 400,000 people,
and Sheilield 22 men to u population of
3.10,000. Liverpool, l'.rlntol, Cardiff,
Norwich, Promley und other towns
have no separately organized lire de-
purtment, the work of suppressing lires
being performed by tlie regular police
force. The expenditures lor lire protec
lion are on a similarly unimportant
scale. Thus Leeds spends less than
SS.non a vear. ond Sheffield less than
$10,000 a vcur; Preston, with a populn
tion of 113,000, reports only $1,500 spent
for its fire brigade, and Norwich, with
100,000 population, only $750 a year. A
Jew towns, however, show a somewhat
larger range of expenditures, tjlasgow
and Liverpool' each annually expend in
Ihe neighborhood of $75,000 about ten

A Faithful Dour.
The Paris Flguro relates a touch
ing souvenir of the poet de Musset, as
mentioned by the poet s governess,
yime. Adele Colin Martellet, who has
Jost published her memoirs. The poet
had a small dog named fao. After
the poet died, the dog, supposing him
absent, continued to await his return
at the same hour every evening for pe
riod of seven years, when it also died.
,Mme. Martellet's husband took the dog
to Auteuil to be buried, nnd found soma
workmen engaged In digging out a new
street. The faithful dog was buried by
tho men, and the street In which the
animal's remain were laid is called tha
Hue de Musset.

At Table Pay, near the Capo of Oool
Hope, is n small tree tho berries of
which make excellent candles. It is also
found in the Azores. Tho vegetable tal
low treo also grows in Sumatra, in Al

Chnsau largo quantities of oil and tal
low are extracted from its frnit, which
is gathered in November or December,
when the tree has lost nil its leaves.
The bark of a tree in China produces a
benntiful soap. Trees of the sapindns

north of Africa. They are amazingly
prolific, and their fruit contains about
3S per cent of saponin. Ladies' Home

Itefnsed to Take More Par-
A writer in Ainslee's Magazine tells
how Irving M. Scott, the man who bttilt
the Oregon, once refused a raise in his
salary. The firm was then building tho
Haginaw for the government. Donahue
was ut the legislature much of the time
soon after Scott's arrival, and affairs at
the works were at sixes and sevens.
Brodio, the foreman, threatened to leave
and did leave, and Scott, without au
thority and although only engaged as a
draftsman, took entire charge and di
rected things for two weeks nntil Dona
hue's return. He introduced Bysteia in
to the methods and made affairs run
along so smoothly that Donahno was
pleased and made bun permanent tore
man.
About this time Donahue offered to
incrcuse his wages, but Scott thought
over the mutter and declined.
"If I break my ycar'a contract with
yon," he said to Donahue, "I'll have to
take what yon give me. I prefer to keep
my con t rue t, and when it's np you'll
have to pay me what I'm worth."
Donahue looked aghast. "You're the
first man," he said, "that I've ever
known to refuse a raise of pay. "
Results justified Scott's foresight. At
tho end of the year ho was re-engaged
and was paid jnst four times what Don
ahue had offered him.
Dressed For the Jury.
Pretty women on trial have a habit
of dressing so as to impress the jury,
but the highest typo of this art was
naturally left for development in Puris,
where toilets nre "composed" for the
occasion. An example of the art was
in evidence at the trial of Mine. Bian-
chini, who was accused of having dis
posed of her husband in an unlawful
way. "Her costume, " says n chronicler,
"was tlie essence of outraged diguity
nnd resignation, and at the same time
of elegance, due to her position as a
mondaino Parisienne. Sho naturally
was all in black, with a mantle close
fitting at the waist and a high collet do
moiigolio. The severity of tho low hat,
with its ostrich pinnies, was relieved
by her jaunty way of symbolizing her
confidence in the triumph of innocence
in that tho left brim was turned up,
sheltering a littlo bunch of peacock
tips."
True Thrift.
Hicks appreciated the shrewd ns well
as tho humorous sayings of the Cornish
country folk. There dwelt not fur from
bis abode a duirywoman und her bus
bund who had begun ' life in a very
small wuy with one cow, and who, by
industry uud thrift, had acquired quite
a number.
"How ia it," said Hicks to her one
day, "that yon have got on so well,
Mrs. P. II"
"Well, yon see, Mr. Hicks," she re
plied, "most people he ullus thinking
of what they do want, but I and my
old man, we bo alius thinking of whut
we can do without."

Tho hotel clerk tcld tho following
story: Charles L. Davis, the nctor, oth
erwise known as "Alvin Joslin," was
in the lobby of the St. Charles, in New
Orleans, when a limn from Chicago
stepped in front of him and looked ovef
his head In search of an acquaintance
that ho supposed was in tho hotel lobby.
Davis, liilstnkiliK the Chicago man s
purpose, remarked : "Ah I I see yon ad

ing tho stone on his shirt bosom "cost

buttons "cost me 2, 500 each, nnd my

The Chicago man did not say mnch.
bnt that evening, by arrangement with
tho head waiter, Davis was placed at
supper alono at a table where thero
were several vacant chairs. Presently
several men, all commercial travelers,
entered the dining room, and each ono
had a largo cnt glass frnit dish fastened
on his breast, whilo glass prisms hung
pendent from each coat and vest button.

The advantago of a trained nnrse is
that she knows not only what to do,
bnt what not to do, since unnecessary
attentions merely exhaust the patient.
The point is illustrated by tho follow

While the raising of swine is not ex
actly a poetical occupation, it is said to
be a paying one and one that would be
practicable for a woman to engage in.
"One of tho most thoroughgoing,
capable business women of the day,"
says The Practical Farmer, "is a breed
er of fine swine, and she has wen a
reputation that is enviable. She has
made thousands of dollars from the
business and is proud of and enjoys
her work. Poultry and swine breeding
as a purt of tho farm wife's business
ventures forms both a happy und profit
able combination. Even tho word 'hap
py, ' sho says, is well placed, for it is a
happy work caring for and owning
handsome, sows nnd pretty, thrifty pigs,
fino'shotes und marketable hogs. Little
pigs, she asserts, are as lovable ns baby

one takes pride and comfort in watch
ing them grow and looking to tho com

A recent discussion nt a dinner table,
whether "gotten" or "got" were the
preferable participle, received a practi
cal solution, at least for the telegraphic
service, from nn experience related of a
college professor who preferred "got
ten." lie hud telegraphed to his wife:
"Have gotten tickets for the theater to
night. Meet me there. "
The telegraph operator rendered this
into "Have got ten tickets," etc.
Mrs. Professor was delighted with the
opportunity of entertaining her friends
and accordingly made up a party of
eight besides herself, whose greetings to
the professor at the rendezvous were
probably moro cordial thun his feeling
until mutters were expluined. He now
mukes an exception to his customary
