LIFE AT WEST POINT, An Example of How the Cadets Are Made to Economize, The eadets at the Military academy at West Point are not favored as are often the students in colleges and unld- versities who have wealthy parents— that is, they are not furnished with an unlimited amount of cash to buy “ex- tras” for rooqes, clothes and luxuries. All the cadets stand on the same foot- ing and receive $600 a year, plus the commutation of rations amounting to $100.50 a year. However, with proper economy this yearly allowance is suffi- cient for the support of a cadet. The army cadet who goes to the Mili- tary academy with spendthrift habits a and *severe check, As an instance, a cadet some time ago went to the superintendent for an order for four shirts, but the superintendent peremptorily refused to give his approval. The young man was sorely in need, and he attempted to convince his gunerior of the fact. The latter took up the cadet’s account book and perusing it a couple of moments threw it back te him, saying, “1 have no doubt you are in great need of these shirts or you would not present this or- der, but you are in debt, and there's no excuse for you.” The young cadet, with tears starting in his eyes and a trembling voice, responded: “But, colo- nel, I am almost destitute of changes of clothing. I have only one shirt to my back, and that is a fatigue jacket.” The colonel was immovable and sim- ply said as he dismissed the cadet from his presence, “Well, Mr. —, I would SOO receives decided ful that you can pass muster at the in- spection.”—New York Tribune.

Baggagemen to Bacome Postal Employes in Order to Handle Open Mall, Postmaster General Payne has decid- ed to make the experiment of em- ploying baggagemen on the trains which are not provided with mail clerks to take charge of and deliver open newspaper mail, Second Assistant Postmaster General Shallenberger suggested the expedient of employing the baggagemen to take charge of the mail along the lines from trains which earry only closed pouches. There are a large number of such trains. The plan contemplates that the baggage masters shall be sworn in as Post Office Department employes and that they shall be paid for their ser- vices. It is intended that they shall deliver the papers to those to whom they are addressed at points along the line from the car doors, thus saving time which would be lost in case the papers were enclosed in the pouches, as this would necessitate their being taken to the local post office before they could be delivered to agents, ti fen mn Williams Grove Plenle.
