Postmen on Wheels.


The experiment Of the Washington
pOstOflice in mounting mail collectors
ON bicycles has proven successful AZ
ter several months trial with rented
machines the Office has purchased out
aight = number of bicycles Of uniform
pattern. A regular system OF bicycle
collections has been arranged. Bicycles
have almost entirely displaced The one
horse carts for collections, except IN the
suburbs and in the heart of the business
section. where the collections are too
heavy for wheelmen. There are now In
all twenty-,Our mounted collectors. anu
the hours Of duty are from a. m TO .
p. M. the force OF men being divided
into two rclicfs. SO that no one, Of
course. has to work all that ;ime.
A bicycle IS cheaper than a cart and
a horse both az the outset and ever att
erward, aud some Of the men are said
20 prefer pushing 20 driving. There
are always some men who do not like
horses, and these are pleased with the
innovation. This satisfaction IS not
universal, however, is some men are
only TO glad 70 have the chance to drive
and care for a horse. They would
rather drive than push. Not All the
work Of collection. however, is done by
mounted men. for one certain ef their
trips the regular letter carrier collects
as he goes. But. as compared with col
lectOrs on foot. the mounted men are
much the more valuable. IL has been
the experience at the Washington Post
Office that two men on wheels can do
the work Of three men on foot Inc
new system is success and has evil

An AsroUxDrxG REVELATION.

Mr.. THOMAS L. GEASrY, editor Of the
Baltimore Manufacturers Record, .
high protection publication. has make
remarkable revelation regarding the
Force bin. lie says that before the
adjournment Of Congress he and Mr..
=. RICE. the Boston leader i'm Southern
investments, called upon Speaker REED
IN the latter's private room at the Cap
itol. According to Mr.. GEASrY. the
following incident occurred:
Reed had lost sight Of the fact that Rice
had placed several millions Of dollars in
southern properties, and so he took him
into his confidence. said Reed: "See here,
Rice something must be done 10 stop this
exodus Of capital from New England The
South threatens 10 paralyze our industrial
prosperity This Election bill Will call a
halt on Southern Investment, and that's
why I am urging il so strenuOusly.
What do our Republican brethren
think Of this sort OF craftsmanship? Do
they think that a man who would de-
Hberately use the power Of the Govern
ment for the purpose indicated is dt 10
De looked up to as q leader? The deelara-
tions attributed to the Speaker are sim
ply diabolical, and if he cannot success
fully rcfutc them he should forever be
disgraccd in the eyes OF all patriotic
men.

A NATIONAL GERRYMASDER PRO
POSED

There are some party organs so blind
and deaf and scnseless that il is impoS-
sible to teach them anything. The
Philadelphia Press is one OF them. II
has learned nothing from the late cleo
ton. II now proposes, with the empha-
sis of double leads, that the tail end Of
the Fifty-frSt Congress devise national
rerrvmander that will cover every state
in The Union. This organ, which can
not see beyond its partisan nose. thinks
that gerrymandcr could DC cooked up
bv REED n Co. that would make Con
gress surely Republican for the next
ten years.
The Press forgctS the epigramatic
truth uttered by ABRAHAM LINCOLN
Won can fool all the people sometime,
some Of the people all the time, but you
can't fool all the people all the time. 1t
forgets that this is precisely the lesson
Of the election Of November ., 1890.
Gerrymaaders stood no chance at all in
the Democratic tidal wave that swept
the country on that day. Let rs look
at the facts.
In only two Northern states. Ohio
and Indiana, were the re-apportiomentS
made by Democrats. while in the re-
mainder Of the Northern States TWEEN
tv-one in number, there were Repu0h-
can gerrymanders, whose object was to
secure as many Republican and as few
Democratic Congressman as could De

Wyoming woods have been made ut
higher figures than at any time during
the year. Manufacturers are showing
more care in their selections of woods.
They are accepting quotations on fine
woods, but they are not paying the prices
asked for inferior woods. There lisa steady
demand for Ohio and Michigan woods,
and prices are ruling very firm. Terri
tories are still selling well. There are
few Texas woods to be had, and values
arc very high for those which dealers
happen to have. California woods are
moving well. The sales of Australian
woods have not been large. Advices re-
ceived from Melbourne state that the
supply in the market is light and the
quality is below the average. Carpet
woods are Quieter. There is some call
for pulled woods. Quotations have not
been changed.

The Alarming increase of Pneumonia ana
What IL Meaus-"The Stitch In Time"
Scarcely a day passes that one does not hear
Of men and women whom We picture as the
perfection OF health and strength, being
stricken down by the terrible disease, pneu-
MONA.
Perhaps the gsestest cause Of pneumonia IN
this country is the extreme difference in tenn
perature between the interiors OF offices and
homes and the outside air So long as people
consider it necessary for their comfort TO main
tain dollhouse temperature indoors, when the
mercury is very low outside, so long will pneu-
mouia find victims.
The greatest care and prompt measures should
be taken upon the first approach of the slight
est symptoms Of pneumonia. II You have u
tickling In the throat, a tightness in the chest
a pain in the head, chilly feelicg, or pains
throughout the body, act promptly, act wisely
bring about an immediate reaction. This can
sometimes be accomplished by quick ana Vio-
lent exercise. but that is exhausting and wastes
the strength. which should be husbanded. \
far better plan Is 10 take u pure ana strong
stimulant which will tend 20 equaliZe the CIR
culation check congestion and restore 10 health.
There are many forms Of stimulation, but only
one that can be- recommended-that Is Duny
Pure Malt Whiskey. This Is the only medicinal
whiskey upon the market, aud its purity ana
power are proven by its popularity 1t has
saved the lives OF more men and women VINO
were candidates FOR pneumonia than any DIS
covery OF modern science, and IT stands, as ~
deserves 10 stand, at the head OF medicinal
stimulants OF the preseut day. W.
