POSTAL SAVINGS BANK. 49,.
Their Popularity and Extensive Patron
age In Great Britain.

One of the features of the government of
Great Britain is the postal savings bank sys-
tenn. 1t is very popular and is largely patron
lied by the public, says the Detroit Free Press.
Its usefulness is beyond all question. United
States Consul Waller, of Liverpool, has been
investigating this subject, and has given some
very interesting facts about its workings in a
report to the Secretary of State. The begin
ming OF the government postal savings banks
sened bs S and
IAN act affording additional facilities for
depositing small savings at interest, with
the security OF the government for the due
repayment thereof" On the day of the OPEN
ing of the first banks under this act 435 depos-
number had increased SO greatly that there
were 2, 535 Offices open for the accommodation
Of the public. In 1886 the depositors had in
creased in number to s, 731, 421 and the amount
Of money o0deposit was csc, 1874, 1888. This in
American money would be S250, O00, 900. De-
posits Of shilling or any number of shillings
are received up to $50, or ESQ. The interest
paid 10 % per cent year on every full pound
Should the sum on deposit reach Goo the in
terest thereon will cease until the amount has
been reduced. The government has made pro-
vision for the investment of larger sums in its
securities. The banks will receive deposits
from parents or other relatives on behalf Of
minor children. Married women can also make
deposits, which are beyond the control Of the
Another feature Of the British system il that
the government guarantees the repayment Of
all moneys ON deposit with interest and also
any life insurance. or annuities granted under
the act creating these banks. The results of
the measure Of Mr.: Gladstone have been such
people Of Great Britain. That they do appre-
ciate II il shown by their liberal patronage.
The cost Of maintaining it is very little, being

Cutting ssThe Crab Man,
BOLDEN

BoLDEN
Charles Bolden, the colored man who makes
the rounds of the saloons and barber shops
selling soft, hard and deyiled crabs, appeared
In the Police Court this morning in a condition
unfit to call ''crab mans here, and the crab
mans going, with your hard shell, soft shell
and deviled crabs" Charlie charged William
Cole, also colored, with cutting him. The
cutting took place about ii O'Clock last night at
13H and c streets. He charged that Coles
wanted him to give him crab for nothing
He refused, and Cole cut him through the lower
jaw.
The defendant denied the cutting. He adj
mitted having the trouble with Bolden, and
said that he struck at Bolden with q crab claw.
Where did you get your whisky last night?''
asked the judge.
II didn't drink any whiskey," answered Cole.
'but had three drinks of Hayden's bitters."
What did you cut Bolden for?'
II didn't cut him. that know of. He had
some Of these devilish crabs in his basket and
when we had the trouble hit at him with a
claw"
II think" said Mr.. Darlington, his counsel.
'that Won got one Of the devilish crabs"
The defendant, who was very hoarse was told
to speak louder, which led Mr.. Shillington 10
ask him if he had not been shouting .!Hurrah
for Harrison"
The defendant disclaimed taking any mart
In politics. as be did not know what it meant.
Mr.. Darlington said that a great MANY of
their voices were in that condition. He, how
ever. was all right, as he had not had a chance
to "hurrah-" A fine of go was imposed.

Taking Other Peoples Advice.

There is probably, however, no more
melancholy fact III human affairs than the
infrequency with which any individual
mans experience is Of use TO anybody
else. II we profit by experience at al, it
seems to be mainly by the experience Of
the human race, or Of our particular nation,
rather than by that OF any individual
friend, or relative, or preceptor. No
matter how much we may respect
or admire ESown or Jones, or
even father or uncle, we generally
take care not TO follow his advice IN the
management of our own lives. Every
body who has had much experience as q
counselor knows well that people usually
seek advice In order to get encouragement
In pursuing course a which they have
already determined. In truth, il may be
said that most of us are constitutionally
incapable OF doing well what other people
think best, unless we also ourselves think
it best. To follow successfully plan
traced for Us by somebody else, it has gen
orally to be plan which does not concern
us except as another mans agent or ser
want and has his satisfaction for its su-
preme oh iect. New York Post.

Marriage Among the Eskimo.

As regards matrimonial matters, they
generally have but one wife, and never
more than two at the same time. NC
formal preIiminaries in the way OF mar
rage service seem TO be presented Whei.
a couple come To the same way OF think
ing, the man takes the woman from her
home, sometimes even without asking the
parents consent, and installs her in his
own igloo as the fire tender and "slavey'
thereof Usually the relation is u happy
one Sometimes, however, incompati'
bility OF temper reveals itself, and then
the uncongenial wife is returned to her
former nome, having been taken only ION
approval " and no formal divorce being
required.-J Macdonald Oxley in Amer
