David Larson. Bert Wootton and
Pete Furgusou were brought into

deemed sufficient to hold Larson or
Wootton, so they were discharged.
FurgGson did not get off so easily, how
ever; he was adiudged guilty and SEN
fenced to pay fine of SIS, or be COM
mitted like number of days. He at
once gave notice of appeal.
Then came another trio, including
one of those who came in on the first

Band Excursion

The Ogden Band had quite an outing
Tuesday evening. An invitation had
been extended to them by the citizens
of Plain City, which they accepted.
About o'clock the band boys packed
themselves into vehicles provided for
the purpose and set out for the scene of
action. The distance OF twelve miles
was covered in a little less than an
hour and half without ection or Incl
dent worthy of note. Arriving at their
destination, they found the school
house prepared for their reception, and
the inhabitants turned out en- masse,
many not being able to gain admit
lance to the building. Supper was
served the boys by the citizens
at their several houses after which
concert was given by the band. The
concert over, the floor was cleared tor
dancing, and portion of the band boys
furnished the music with their lighter
band instruments. Owing to the great
number present, not much opportunity
was offered for artistic dancing, but
all enjoyed themselves right merely
until the wee small hours, when the
horses were again brought into use
and the journey home accomplished.
The boys are loud in their praise of
their trea tment, and long will remem-
Der their trip to Plain City.

An order for a new ship of the class re-
quired to compete in the modern passenger
service of the Atlantic is not by any means
matter to be determined on without grave
consideration. Speed is costly, and as you
increase it it is generally necessary to also
increase the tonnage. This forces upon your
consideration tides, channels, harbor bars
and dock accommodations, all of which i'm
pose limitations upon you. And then the cost
OF the ship Herself is not matter which even
the wealthiest OF corporations can provide
for at a moments notice; it is not 500, 900,
nor S5OOOO0 that the work calls for but
about five times the latter sum, for it is safe
TO say that vessel superior to the City of
New York or the Etruria could not be built
for less than $500, 600 Sometimes the
shipbuilders are willing to become part own
ers of the projected vessel; sometimes they
take as part payment for the work some older
vessels of the line, which they refit, re-engine
modernize and sell again
The ability of the builders to make an ar
rangcment of this kind, of course, influences
the placing of the contract, in measure, but
they must also be able To give certain guar
antees. They must enter into an engage
ment that the projected ship shall be able to
carry So many passengers and so many tons
of cargo and to attain specified speed on a
given consumption of coal per day. Let us
say, for instance, that the stipulations are
these Accommodations for 600 saloon pas
sengers, $50 intermediate passengers and
$500 steerage passengers; registered tonnage,
6,0OO; speed, 10 knots on a consumption of
300 tons per day If the ship fails to fulfill
these conditions the builders agree to forfeit a
part of the amount they would otherwise re-
ceive for her, or they may be compelled to
take her back altogether. This was the case
with the City of Rome, which was built for
the lnman line by the Barrow Shipbuilding
company -Scribuer's

Crackers in London,

The crop OF travellers tales is being har-

in that city's hotel life which seems worth
relating
They were four in number all Americans,
and they were having dinner in the gor-
geously furnished dining room of the Hotel
Metropole. When the soup was brought the
Pittsburger in the party asked the waiter to
bring some crackers.
beg pardon said the waiter; what did
you say, sir!"
Crackers" replied the Pittsburger
The waiter looked puzzled, but walked off
and did not appear again near the table for
several minutes. The soup was getting cold,
and the Pittsburger called another waiter
and sent him after the first with a renewed
injunction to bring some crackers. Another
minute or two passed, and then both walters
re-entered the room with the stately head
waiter They were engaged in earnest CON
versation for another minute At last the
waiter originally sent bashfully approached
the Americans and laid beside the Pittsburg-
er's plate pair Of silver nutcrackers.
There was general laugh, in which the
Pittsburger joined when another member of
the party said: IF you want crackers to eat
you must call them biscuits as long as you're
in England. Cor. Pittsburg Dispatch.

Sunday Delivery of Mall Matter.

WASHINGTON CITY, Aug. Elm most of
the first-class postoffices in the United States
delivery of letters with special delivery
stamps attached, is made on Sunday. The
law when passed was construed to mean
that letters bearing special delivery stamps
should be delivered as soon as received.
There was great opposition to this from
the religious element of the country, and
Postmaster General Villas then directed post
masters throughout the country to use their
discretion in the matter The postfnasters
at most Of the large postoffices decided that
the law meant that such letters should be at
once delivered, but there are several post
offices, among them Chicago and st. Louis,
at which no Sunday delivery is made. 1t is
expected that Congress~will be asked to act
upon the matter
