The Postal Law Changes.

Washington Special.
A circular calling attention to the changes in
the postal laws which take effect on the lst of
July is in preparation by the Postofice Depart
ment The new rates will be an advantage in
many ways. They will include rate of two
cents ounce for letters, instead of for half an
ounce as at present. This extension will be ap-
preciated by the public. who, under the present
law, are obliged to pay double rate if they use
paper a little heavier than the average quality,
attempt to write a little longer letter than
usual Much trouble will be saved the postal
officers, for at the present time they are com
PEELED to weigh every letter that weighs any
where in the neighborhood of half an ounce.
The average of letters will weigh very nearly
that amount. Besides this reduction of letter
rates, there will be reduction of newspaper
postage to one cent per pound for papers sent
from publication Offices in bulk. Then there is
the plan for specially stamped letters to insure
prompt delivery up to midnight of the day they
are received. This latter change will probably
not be introduced until more definite arrange
ments have been made. In connection with it
messenger service will have to be organized
and perfected.

WASHINGTON, june 2L-Some of the daily
papers are stating that the President declined to
appoint man who was an applicant for the
postefice at Quincy, ILL.,. simply because the
applicant was named Cleveland. The President
is quoted as saying that he did not know that
Cleveland was any relative of his, and. although
he had the best Endorsements, he would not
appoint him becanse he might be relative and
that would be very embarrassing to him. Here
is man whose position should make him the
fairest and most impartial in the land straining
at gnats in the matter of these simple appoint
nents, but swallowing such camels as Pillsbury,

One of the first official acts of Secretary Lamar
was to sell the horses and carriages belonging to
the interior Department. There was some OBJ
joction to this on the part of the chiefs of
bureaus, as it compelled them to transact their
business on foot The Secretary was obdurate,
however, and the stables were sold out The
net result in cash was trife over So, 500, and it
was in this manner that Mr.. Lamar's depart

The Secretary was always an enthusiastic
pedestrian, and for a week the Secretary was
observed stalking with rapid strides through the
streets. Then. one day he left the department
in clandestine manner and got into street
car. He took out fifty cent piece and dropped
il in the box. After that he was often seen on
the street cars and herdic lines, and one day he
rode five times, expanding a quarter for the
same.
When the Cabinet met few weeks ago he
astonished the officials at the White House by
appearing in q herdic The Cabinet meeting
asted for two honrs His herdic bill was So. So
lie often came after that in herdie, and once

Tom Cox. the Georgia Champion, Lowers the
Thirty-Hour Walking Record.
Special to the indianapolis Journal.
RICHMOND, Ind. June Last night ended the
walking match. which began at the Main-street
roller skating rink Tuesday evening, and Tom
Cox, the Georgiachampion, not only won firstmon-
ey but distinguished himself by making better
record than was ever made in the United States
in thirty hours-six hours, five nights The
record of 1872 miles, made by Tracy, in Cincin-
natl, has stood for three years, but Cox now
downs that badly. If Tracy's track was as
short as this one it being a rare thing when
the laps walked for mile make mile, Cox has
beaten him thirty-one miles, and if
he walked 1872 full miles Cox has still beaten
him about three miles According to the score,
which was computed at seventeen laps to the
mile Cox made 213 miles and thirteen laps, but
measurement proves that it requires little
over nineteen laps of the track to make mile.
Second money went to O'Brien, of Newport,
KY, whose score was 1914 miles and eight laps,
and third money went to Burns, Of New York,
whose score was 1874 miles and seven laps.
