All Worked ManfulIy.
MOUNTAINS OF NAIL.
The Pittsburg Postof1ce Clerks Overyvorked
The Enforced Rest of Few Days
Being Atoned for With

vengeance
The temporary holiday given the Pittsburg
postofice employees for few days last week on
account of the entire cessation of Eastern
mails was the precursor of the liveliest season
of work that ever fell to the lot of Uncle Sans
industrious mailing contingent. At midnight
last night, after four days and nights of contin-
uous hustling, the mailing department of the
postofice got the decks clear of accumulation
and the force went home to enjoy well-earned
rest. Double turn has been prevailing and the
IA clerks looked as begrimed and wearied after
their Sunday job as do the members of the va
rious relief committees at Johnstown. While
the pious Postmaster General-who doesn't
want any more working on Sunday in his de-
partment-was teaching his Sunday-school
perspiration was rolling from the mail
clerks as they attacked a mountain of
mailsacks and sorted mail for all points East
and West. The air was filled with packages of
belated letters and newspapers which were
being SHE'D into the open mouths of capacious
mailbags with an accuracy of aim which would
put small boy and his pea-shooter to the
blush.
Early yesterday morning two trains on the
b. d O., and one on the Valley Road came in
bringing an immense amount of mail. Wagon
loads were driven into the little blind court be-
tween the postofice proper and city hail. and
the sacks were stacked As high as the ceiling
but gradually melted away as the energetic
clerks worked with a will as they were assured
that the end was in sight. Among the mail of
yesterday was that contained in car 81 of the
postal service which was laid up in Altoona
over week since.
One of the postoffce officials stated that the
magnitude of the work done at the Pittsburg
pOstoffce during the food crisis had not been
appreciated by the public. In the first place
the discontinuance Of the regular postal car
service meant that all mail from the East was
simply bundled into sacks, sent by roundabout
lines and marked "Pittsburg Dis" This meant
that every sack of mail so marked had to be
opened, sorted and resent from Pittsburg to
points West and northwest, the entire through
mail thus coming within the Pittsburg iuris-
diction. Another thing that made the work
more difficult was that the newspaper mail had
come illegible Letter mail was, of course, all
right, as it was tied up in small packages. No
better work has ever been done in a crisis in

MAY WRECK JAMES.
A Child Named in Commemoration of the
Jahusfoxvu niso star

A Child Named in Commemoration of the
JohnstOwn Disaster.
Evin Arthur James is the name of one of the
Johnstown refugees, who, with his wife and
family of five children, is stopping with Mr..
Davy Jones in North Braddock. Before the
deluge the James family consisted of seven
children, but two of them perished. The
youngest of tn ose yet remaining is little in
FAINT girl three weeks old. and at the time of
the flood had not yet been named
On Saturday its parents gave the little crea-
ture name and called it May Wreck James,
which alone will tell the sad story. without
repetition, that the awful wreck to life and
property in the Conemaugh Valley occurred on
the last of May.
The child was being dressed by its mother
when the food came and was swept from her
embrace. 1t was rescued several miles down
the river the next morning, after having been
on the water the entire night with nothing
about it but bandage.

The Masons Find Their Losses Much Smaller
Than They at First Supposed.
rFRoM STAFF CORRESPONDENT
JoHNsTowN, June 9.-Mr. James Mexican is
looking after the interests of the Masons.
They had an organization OF $50 here, and at
first it was reported they had lost 100 men, but
Mr.. Mexican says there will not be half that
number. The deputies are taking a census,
and they will not be able to report before to-
day. The Masons are fortunate. Their brothers
have contributed stacks of money, and the
them in as good shape as they were before.
Mr.. Mexican felt sure that some of them would
be better off than before the food.
Building Inspector Frank was here to-day,
but not in an official capacity. He thinks
and will have to be torn down. Some of them,
he says. might be moved to new foundations.

MILES OF RAILROAD TRACKS GONE.
Three Weeks at Least Before the Pennsyl-
vanin Road Is Restored,

JoHNsTowN. June 9.-Mr. W. NJ Ferguson
walked down from South Fork to-day, follow
ing the line of the Pennsylvania road. He said
that all the railroad tracks from South Fork
to the viaduct were swept away. The old via
duct is gone. A part of the road known as the
Deep Cut is half filled with earth and sand, and
the tracks are lost. A mile and half of tracks
from Mineral Point to the cut is lost. A
trestlework is being built where the Deep Cut
bridge once stood. From the viaduct to the
South Fork, he said, was six miles,
1t will be three weeks before the road will be
open for travel, and months before it will be
res tored to its former stability.

THE SALOONS ARE CLOSED,
But 1t Is Impossible to Punish Anyone Who
Opens His Bar.

Opens His Bar.
JoHNsTowN, June 9.-Chief of Police Hart
arrested hotel keeper named Myers last even
ing for selling liquor. He was taken to the
guardhouse and remained there for the night.
This morning he was released. Nothing was
done TO him, as no law covers his case. He has
a hotel and a licensed bar. For this reason he
can sell within the camp. He was so badly
frightened that it is not likely he will attempt
to open his saloon. If be does, Chief Hart will
have his license revoked by the County Judge.
Saloon Keeper Watkins was compelled to
close his saloon last night. He remained closed
to-day. The selling of liquor is not done
openly, but is on the same plan as the numer-
Gus city "speak-easies." There is but little
drunkenness among the men, as liquor is not to
be had very easily. Express companies will
not ship it from the city to private individuals,
and it is difficult matter to get it shipped to
parties in authority.

communion with God and being earnest IN de-
Yotions.
The second point of the discourse dealt with
the time in which it becomes necessary for the
people of God to perform their duty. and the
speaker then said that everybody had to do his
duty at all times, but especially in times OF
calamity. He then dwelt upon the event of
public calamity where the duty of the people
toward God and fellow citizens should be
even more free to exercise itself, and at last he
stated that man owes duty to himself in
personal affiiction when the church is cold.

DESERTED RIVERS.

Waters Yesterday-The Health

turned YET,

turned 4 ets
The scene along the banks of the Allegheny
river yesterday were in striking contrast with
those of the same day one week ago. Then
thousands Of people thronged the bridges and
wharves on both sides watching the floating
mass of debris passing by, eagerly scanning
every piece of a house or log for the remains
of some poor victim who had gone down in the
flood of Friday, Yesterday the watchers num-
bered only tens where they had num-
bered thousands; the bridges were deserted
save for the usual throng of Sunday promen-
aders, while,the once pueturbed waters were al
most cruel in their calmness. There was
hardly ripple of wave to suggest the fury
of one short week ago, nor a block of wood to
show the wreck that had been wrought.
The health boats sent out to patrol the Allie
gheny and Ohio rivers had not returned up to
a late hour last night and are not expected
back before this evening,

What the Bakers say.

There is an old saying that the proof of
the pudding lies in the eating. The best
proof of the excellence Of the famous "Irou
City Brand" of -four. made by Whitmyre &
Co., the sterling millers, lies in the fact that
the bakers of Allegheny county are gradu-
ally adopting its use on account of its solid
qualities. Give it a trial.

at the First United Presbyterian Church the
Rev. w. ]. Reid, D. D.. took his subject for a

text of Isaiah XVI, 20:

The theme of the discourse illustrated the
duty of the people of God in time of calamity.

Manufacturers Kicking.
Substantial Work Advocated,

1t has been Superintendent Pitcairn's advice
that permanent and substantial work be done
at once on all the switch connections by an
adequate force of men, as it would prove the
cheapest in the end The switch yard at Cone
maugh was a marvel of engineering skill, and
other connections with manufacturing concerns
were almost equally complicated. So complete
has beer the destruction that there is more
work off the main line than is comprised in
that necessary to operate passenger traffic. 1t
is limited that vigorous admonltions directed at
the Pennsylvania line have been expressed all
along the line and especially in Pittsburg
The call is for haste and lots of it. and
President Roberts has grasped the situation
after some hesitation and not little
doubt as to the real extent of the disaster. 1t
is fairly preSumable that his optimistic homes
of an immediate resumption have been dis
PEELED by the actual idea he received of the
tremendous amount of damage. His precau-
tions in the way of concealment of his visit TO
Johnstown, and the causes therefor, seem to
indicate that the head of the greatest cor
poration in the world" is considerably exercised
over the condition of affairs.
Employees Wages Delayed.
1t looks as if the Pennsylvania Railroad en-
ployes of the Pittsburg division, would have to
undergo some delay in the receipt of the
months wages falling due on June 18th. 1t has
been semi-officially given out that delay would
certainly arise in getting the "check-rolI"
through from Altoona to this CITY. A large
amount of money will be involved in the DELAY
and several thousand employees will be some.

Wealth Of the Navajoes.

The Navajo tribe OF Indians, located
on reservation OF Northwestern New
Mexico, are becoming wealthy in
herds and nocks. The tribe now owns
z45, 600 horses and ponicsmulos. 800, =
600; cattle, 3, 500; sheep, $40 000 goats,
10000 burros. 300 Some OF the In
dams, it is said, arc exchanging their
horses for cattle, which viii largely
increase their holdings OF the latter
kind. The last wool clip amounted TO
l,200, 900 pounds and besides they sold
100000 sheep pelts and 10000 goat
skins Whea it is cor.idered that
there are but $500 males over eight
cen years of age it is evident that
these Indians instead OF being poor
are pretty we'll off, at least IN this

Indian Office that the Navaioes are
well on the road 10 civilization, and
that never in their history have they
approached so near the degree OF
prosperity that surrounds them to-day.
