Assistant Postmaster General shows
that the cost Of the postal service for
the last fiscal year, inclusive of the
amount earned by the subsidized

The postal and money order receipts
for the same period, amounted to
$50, 695. 176, leaving a deficiency of
So, 430, 82S, which is mainly owing to
the extension of the free delivery
service and increased railway mail
transportation.

during the year, which are the first

ever published by the Department.

or some equivalents underground
system of transporting mails, be
adopted; that the present contract

scinded, and that as a substitute fol
the ranking privileges, members Of
Congress have an annual allowance

Fifteen minutes after entering sp-

Eighty out of the hundred patients
became thoroughly i'll, and exhibited
The usual result of an emetic.

PRoHIBITION vOTE DOUBLED.
Important Gains fn Nearly All Of
the states.

the states.
Rev Mr.. Hammond, Of Ruby
Hill, has handed as o copy of the
Voice, the organ of the Prohibition
party published in New York. Re-
garding 1.-The increase of the tenn
perance vote Of the country. we make
the following extract from it's
columns:
Fisk and Brooks have received an
aggregate vote in the nation Of from
800, 600 to $50, 900. 1t will probably
DO something in excess of 300 600,
closely approximating 340, 900. THE
will be more than twice the number
of votes obtained by st. John
and Daniel in 1884, and q
larger number of votes than the
Prohibition party has polled in any
election since its organization, not
excepting the phenomenal year OF
1886.
The Voice has received special dis
patches from every State of the
Union but Louisiana, South Caro-
lima, and Nevada. For a few States,
like Alabama, Arkansas, Kansas and
West Virginia. the size of the Pro-
hibition vote is O matter OF specula-
ton. But nearly all the reports re-
ceived give tolerably definite es-
Inmates based upon returns indicat-
ing the general drift of the result.
There is not n Prohibition loss,
compared with the st. John vote, in
any important State. The gains are
heavy almost without exception,
and in some cases are unexpectedly
heavy. Thus California increases
her st. John vote from 1880 to
10000 or 10, 900; Minnesota from
1884 to $4,000 or 10000; Indiana
from 3,02S to an aggregate variously
estimated at from 1900 to $1,000.
The Largest Man I'm n World.
A writer of q letter to the Deven-
port Tribune says: During this trip
I have been ove a large portion OF
this State, and find Iowa has the
largest and best oorn crop that has
even been raised in the State. Iowa
does not only stand at the head of
the list as a corn State, but stands at
the head also for large men. l was
one of the two largest men on q
train last week, and the two OF US
weighed Just two pounds over half a
ton. I weighed 210 pounds. and the
other fellow weighed just 1902 pounds.
His name was j. FL. Craig. He is @
feet ~ inches long. and was born in
Iowa City 32 years ago. He is sold
to be the largest man in the world at
the present time. he is we'll pro-
portioned, full of fun, and as playful
as a kitten. He told me that when
he went to church he put one dollar
in the collection basket and took o
whole seat for himself. He has
weighed 1888 pounds. but nses
tobacco now TO keep his weight
down below 800.

Old John Walton and wife-may they
sit side by side through all eternity as
CHEEKY, radiant and loving as | always
find them at Russell street. Portland! He
is over SO years OF age now, and it is de-
light to listen to his tales of the days and
ways when the century came in. Among
his earliest and strongest recollections
was peculiar feature in the burial cere-
monies Of the hero of Tripoli, Commodore
Edward Preble, in Portland, 1907
"They had sent out all the country over"
he relates, ''for band music. No entire
organization could be got. But more
than 100 musicians came, sort Of on their
own hook. When they got here it was
found that, while the town was overrun
with every manner of musician and mu-
steal instrument, that there was not one
dirge or march they could all play to-
gether, If they were TO be hung for it.
The funeral obsequies in every other re-
spect were more imposing than ever before
or since, known here; music must be had
whether or no; and it was finally dscov-
cred that the musicians could all play
just one composition. don't remember
the name OF it, but anyhow, it was n roll
licking Irish jig; and the mournful cortege
actually moved up and down the streets
Of Portland, and finally to the old Eastern
cemetery, to louder and lveller strains Of
wild Irish music than ever crazed the
heads or bedeviled the toes of lads and
lassies at Tipperary fair. Edgar l..

The Bathing IufIaln.

Beef cattle are not indigenous to any
portion Of jungle covered Malaysia, the
buffalo finding subsistence there. But The
buffalo is not used for dairy purposes. aud
it is seldom eaten except by the poorest
classes, chiefly Chinese. The meat is
tough and has an unpleasant flavor. But
at heavy draught, blowing, log hauling
and ssch uses the buffalo is at home He
is larger and stronger than the American
OK. He must have mud holes and creeks
in which he can wallow and battle. The
natives make great use of him for culti-
waiting rice. But he must be unhtched
when he gets FESTIVE, for that is sign he
wants TO battle. And if the desire ism t
gratiied the buffalo straightway becomes
dangerous.
These buffalos, the consul says, are
often, in size and weight, about half way
between n very large OK and an average
elephant. They have ponderous and pc
culiar horns, somewhat like those of the
American buffalo, only much longer.
They are mouse colored generally, have n
very thin coating of hair, and sometimes
none at all except at the end of the tail,
on the ears and on the head
This buffalo thrivcs best when he has
access to n pond or sluggish creek. He
will take to this water, bury himself in it
up TO the neck. and remain there happy
and content for five or six hours day
