mentioned in yesterdays STAR that the atten-
ton of the superintendent of letter carriers of
the Washington city post Office had been called
to the fact that some of the carriers were wear
ing overcoats. which is against the law. The
uniform OF the carriers is prescribed in the law

such garments are too cumbersome and that
generally under their uniforms they wear stout
wooden undertaking. with the addition of a
knit jacket, which is ample to protect them
from the cold.

Many islands dot its surface. and yet large
steamers come up from the ocean and rest tran
guilty in its dreamy harbor. The hills on either
side are dotted with the low. white houses that
in the distance look like great lilies Of tropical
growth, and its shores are indented with the
juttlng coral, perforated with innumerabe holes
and arranged In all sorts of fantastic shapes.

Boats are numerous, and every youngster on

handle them as skilIfully, as tie best of seamen

fully colOrcd and tinted az goldfish, and gamey
customers to handle on the line, which, you no

Oscar Wilde's Story of Rosetti's Wife.

At my request Mr.. Wilde repeated the
story he had told in Boston to the poet
John Boyle O'Reilly's guests, of Reset
It's wife-a beautiful woman, with q
wonderful glory of red gold hair, who
had entered his life to mold and color
it with her love and to shape all his
work. One day, in the act of raising q
Venetian glass filed with wine to her
Ups, she died. No one knew why
With her life passed away all his inter
est and his hopes, and the sonnets
which he felt to, be her work as much
as his. he put into a leaden casket and
had buried with her in her coffin. Some
years after his friends begged that he
would restore to the world the poems,
and, at last, they prevailed upon him to
allow them to be taken from tho grave.
To do this, they applied to Mr.. Bruce
Ia secretary and the authority, | sup
pose) who, Mr.. Wilde humoreusly said,
could understand thing that was an
export or an import, or that had a name
on the stock exchange, but to. whom
the word poet conveyed nothing, and
who was lost i'm amused establishment
that anyone could think that a poets
works could confer, honor upon Eng
land. However, in the end permission
was given, the grave WAS opened, the
coffin lid raised, and behold, the beau
tiful red hair had grown 10 great length,
and wound about her erave-robe; the
leaden easket had tl'oken by weight of
the earth upon it, and the wonderful
hair had grown in gnd around the SOM
nets, and made a iace-like mesh on ev-
cry page. EIorenes T. Daatean tas Quiz.
