the object being to prevent the issuing OF
the bonds, voted at the last election. L e
plaintiffs in the case are: Samuel Benn,
Eugene France, G. B. Weatherwax, Arch
Campbell, j. B. Mailing, and j. 7. Med
calf The plaintiffs have been required
to file good and sufficient bond in the
sum OF $4,000, on the filing of which re-
straining order will issue, restraining the
commissioners and others from taking
any steps toward selling the bonds until
after the case has been decided. The 21st

GENERAL NEWS.

The Chehalis Nugget has changed
hands, A. f. Partridge having sold the
paper to Messrs. Robinson & Morden.
The Northern Pacific Railroad, as has
been previouly stated, has made due
preparations for the moving'of the great
wheat yield of Eastern Washington to
the seaboard as expeditiously as possible
To accomplish this end 4S heavy loco
motives and 1900 box cars have been add
ed to the roads equipment.
Postmaster General Wanamaker is just
now much interested in the Street Car
Letter Box question. The subject is
beset with difficulties, and many objec-
tons are advanced against the street car
mail collection plan; but still it is felt
necessary to improve upon present
methods Of mail collection and delivery
in all the large cities of the country.
Postmaster Harlow of st. Louis sometime
ago submitted proposition TO have letter
boxes for collection placed on street cars,
and few days ago Postmaster Gentsch
of Buffalo, New York, urged that the
same plan be adopted in that city. Ma
jor Pollock OF the Special Delivery Service
in the Post Office Department is examin-
ing the subject carefully. He thinks
there are number of weak points in the
plan. One objection is that it is inadvls-
able to establish street car lines as Gov
eminent Post roads, privilege the Car
Companies might bequick to take advan-
tage of.

don't know whether the idea of pur-
chasing the Colosseum and bringing it to
America for exhibition at the Worlds
Fair has been abandoned or not hope
it hasn't: tens Of thousands of people in
the less cultivated portions of the West
would be glad to see what colosseum is
like. They have heard of something of
that name and doubtless are curious to
know whether it is a statue or book
An excellent educational purpose would
be served if the thing itself were erected in
their midst-or at least within easy reach
of their homes. 1t would be an object
lesson of real value. A friend suggests
that with the Colosseum should come a
part OF the Appian Way. This also is a
good suggestion. But why be content
with half measures? Why not buy the
Tiber, too, and cause it to course between
artificial banks somewhere near Jackson
Park? This is my own suggestion, and ]
set great store by it, Buy the Tiber, by
all means IN. Y. Critic.
