A new ruling usl promulgated by the
PostofUoe Department means that news
papers extending credit to subscribers
will be denied the use of the mails at the
usual newspaper rates. Subscribers to
all newspapers and periodicals will be
affected by this ruling and will beobliged
to pay their subscriptions promptly or be
taken off the list. The Kki-uhmcan will
have to enforce the rule, not from choice,
but because the matter Is compulsory,
and in the course of a few weekssubsorip
tions that are not paid up will have to be
discontinued, so don't blame the publish
er If your paper should suddenly stop
coming. But the better way for all
knowing themselves to be in arrears is to
pay up at once. Don't put it oil. We
have no choice In the matter, but must
obey the mandates of the postoffloe de
partment. Tim Pi ui.isHKit.

with renewed energy. Pbkss Supt.
It Is well to be careful about what you
put in the basket at church. The New
York Press tells ol a stingy eld maid who
dropped two postage stamps into the con
tribution box. They were two-cent ad
hesives which she bad soaked oil's letter
received by her grandfather from a friend
in British Guiana in 1850. The minister,
knowing something about philately, sold
them for $1,025. The following year they
changed bands at $3,2110 and a liltle while
later the new purchaser disposed of them
for 13.900 to a German dealer, who let a
Russian collector have them for $5,000.
Sunday was a peach in weather con-
d'tions, almost evory variety known to
this climate being "in our midst." The
day began with a snow storm which was
followed by mildness and springlike
conditions, and then a drenching rain in
tbeeveuing. By Monday morning the
conditions bad changed again and another
snowstorm was howling, and before
evening there was good sleighing lu al
most any direction. And If the weather
man will now stay on bis good behavior
a while our lumbermen and teamsters
will be happy, for there's considerable
slu II to be moved if conditions stay right.

It often happens that for one reason
or another the housewife does not want
to use the whole of a fruit or vegetable,
such as watermelons, cucumbers, pine
apples and grape-fruit. Ia order to keep
the uuused portion fresh, remove by cut
ting straight across one end before peel
ing the amount uecessary for Immediate
use and stand the remainder with the flat
end d wn on a china dish or enameled
pan never tinof sufficient size so that
no air can penetrate between the fruit
and the receptacle. It will keep as well
as though it bad never been cut. The

(as Explosion at Marburg.
A terrific explosion of natural gas oc
curred at Mayburg yesterday morning
about 8:00 o'clock, which destroyed a
power house on the Cook oil lease, but
luckily Injured no one. The building
was located at the outskirts of the town
about one-fourth of a mile from the gen
eral store, and when the stulT let go every
house in the place was shaken. In the
building was a complete gasolene plant,
fitted up with machinery for exiraoting
tne fluid from the gas. Frauk Richards,
wbo was on tour at the time, bad left the
building about ten minutes before and
gone to breakfast, and thus probably es
caped being Instantly killed, as the build
ing was literally blown to atoms. Strange
to say the machinery was little damaged,
and the fire which caught from the ex
plosiou was easily extinguished.
Mr. Richards tbiuks the explosion was
caused by the valve blowing otf the com
pressor, thus forcing the strong pressure
of gas Into tbe building instead of the
line, and that tbe igniter set oil' the ex
plosion. The building was a large one
40x90 feet.
