Washington Union says Our atten-

postmasterS are in the habit Of sending

ing thom for delivery because they were
not prepaid by stamps, but BY money.
This Is wrong and arises from misappre-
hension Of the law. In no case, indeed,
should letter, after &c has reached the
office OF delivery; be returned for postage,
much less should il be returned becaase
the postage was not paid by stamps. Is
is the general duty Of poStmasters 70 see
that letters are prepaid by stamps, bu.
when (haying been prepaid 10 cash. for
want Of stamps on the part Of the mailing
postmas,er) they reach their destination,
it is the duty OF the postmaster 70 deliver
the same as though prepaid by stamps.
Il will necessarily happen in the intro
duetion Of the ssamP,payment system,
that the supplies Of stamps will fail 10

We have just heard a story. that illus

about here. Two men started out ON n
hunt for game. one with gun and tho
other with torch. Late at night they
discovered a buck good way off on the
other side of sheet Of water. "Flour-

Value put on the market during the week TO- 1913
There has been another active week tho dry goods
trade. Both importers and jobbers havo been quite
busy. The city hotels well oiled with merchants
rom all parts Of the country, who engaged In com

three special sales Of French silks and fancy goods by
auction which have been well attended, and desirable
and styles of goods sold higher than pre-
vous GALES Of the season. Owing to various causes,
silks have met with large advance in France. First
The silk crop Is said TO be very small one the heavy
rains and floods materially inerered with tho progress

north Of Europe and especially Russia proved much larger
than had been anticipated To the export duty

ports from France to the United states have been in

market, and the fall trade is supplied wheth
by auction by jobbers, Il Is believed that prices will
decline, and some suppose that II may ultimately pay
rcshp styles back to France, especially should
prices realize further advance In that country. From
the advance In wool Is believed that woollen fabrics OF
all kinds must maintain full prices especially those OF
heavy American manufacture. II Is supposed tho
ire me severity or the weather the past winter caused
nearly one-fourth OF the stock Of sheep in many
sections Of the country, to perish from cold
