FIX THEIR OWN SALARIES.
How the Fourth Glass Postoffices Are
Managed,

One of the most remarkable features OF
the management of our postal system is
That nearly all of the Postmasters OF the
country fix their own salaries. They are
not permitted to draw any amount that
pleases them, but they make the returns
10 the department without supervision,
on which returns their compensation IS
based. The PostInasters who are paid In
this way are the fourth class" POStmaS-
ters-the men whose compensation is less
than 81 200 per aunum. When the COM
pensation OF a Postmaster reaches 81 900 u
year. his office is raised to the "Presi-
dentiaT'' class. The fourth-class Post
masters are appointed by the Postmaster
General without the advice and con-
sent" of anyone. Postmasters of the
first, second and third classes are ap-
pointed by the President and confirmed
by the Senate. At the beginning of this
year there were 6S,SO6 postoffices in the
United States, and of these 65,3S2 were OF
the fourth class.
The Postmaster appointed by the
President draws fixed salary. AT one
time all of the Postmasters drew fixed
salaries. But the sudden growth OF very
small towns made readiustments of sal
aries at these towns so frequent that Con-
gress determined on an elastic compensa-
uon, to be proportioned to the business
this arrangement. if the business of an
office was twice as heavy i'll the latter
part of the year as it was in the tirst part,
the Postmaster's compensation would be
increased proportionately. At first this
sliding scale OF compensation was based
on the sale of stamps. But this offered
many temptations TO dishonesty. Post
masters would sell large quantities of
stamps at a discount so as TO realize a
fIa,. I1cn
the stamps in making purchases, and
then credit their offices with the sale OF
them. In particular they would send the
stamps to newspapers to pay for sub
scriptions, which they solicited; and there
was standing advertisement in most OF
the big newspapers some years ago Otfer-
ing stamps for sale in any quantity. No
doubt some of the newspapers sold
stamps as discount
The new system gives the Postmaster
in the country office a commission on the
amount of stamps which he cancels.
That is, he is paid according to the
amount of business which goes through
his office. But in supervising the returns
from $1,000 offices the Postotlice Depart
ment must rely on the honesty OF the
Postmaster. 1t cannot keep a force OF
Inspectors at work overseeing the can
cellatlons at the small offices. The Post
master keeps an account Of the
value of the stamps he cancels each
day and makes returns under oath to the
Postoffice Department. His compensa-
ton is calculated on the basis of the busi-
ness reported. If the cancellations for q
quarter three months) amount to $50 OF
less, the department pays him commits
sion OF 100 per cent. On the next Sl0C
the commission is 60 per cent; on the
next $500, 30 per cent, and on al above

The Paris salon of s94.

The French Salon has three glorious
days-the Cef3tiS50ge, when the artists are
seen before their pictures; the first Fri
day, when fashionable women display
their magnificent toilettes; and the first
Sunday. when all Paris is admitted.
y distinctive characteristic of ''varnish-
ing day" is the fact that on this day no
vanishing whatever is done. 1t seems
that the velTljSSdge has had four ages-the
golden age. when painters vanished
while art critics criticised; second, the
silver age, when the amateurs joined the
art critics; third, the iron age, when
painters no longer vanished. but art
critics and amateurs were allowed to
bring their acquaintances; fourth. the
braZen age, and that belongs to us. Now,
artists, critics and their acquaintance
constitute minority, tor the crowd from
the provinces and the crowd from Paris
is a most wonderful collection of curiosi-
ties, The most eccentric toiletteS sing the
apotheosis OF bad taste, the dame dts

trance door. From 9 until IL in the

INDIA.S SNAKES.
Fully 10000 People Die Every Year
From Their Bites.


Altogether about 10000 persons die
each year in India from the bites of vari-
Gus snakes. and it is no eXaggeration TO
say that some sixty of Queen Victoria )
subjects who were alive and we'll yester-
day are to-day being burnt or buried out
here as a sequel to these accidents, says a
writer in McIyure's Wdgaztse. The
same will happen tomorrow and the
next day; and at least one death from
similar causes may be expected to occur
every half-hour between now and the
time that your readers peruse what L
have written. Mortality of this magnl-
tude is a terrible thing, though the fact
must be remembered that II is distributed
among a population four times as large
as that OF the United States, and thus
passes to great extent unnotlced.
The casualties are confined almost en-
tirely to the poorer and more ignorant
natives, who habitually go about with
bare feet. For. although creatures like
the hamadryas and the echis are oc-
casionally spelling for fight, as gen
erai rule q snake IS no more anxious 10
be Grodden upon that man IS to tread
upon il. The consequence is that people
who wear boots are hardly ever bitten.
This is not so much because OF the pro-
lection of the leather as on account OF the
noise made by boot upon the ground,
which warns the snake to get out OF the
way. The ordinary native in bare feet
makes hardly any sound whatever as he
walks along, and is consequently very
liable TO surprise a snake IN the path.
The white man, on the other hand, In a
good pair OF crealzy boots, is so safe that
it is most exceptional to hear of an acci-
dent where he is concerned.

gregates $3.50. theoretically the amount
of business at Postoffice fixes the Post
masters compensation, practically he
fixes it for himself.
In addition to the income from cancel
lations the fourth-class Postmasters have
a small income from the sale OF waste
paper and dead printed matter and from
box rents. Under the law of 1888 the
fourth-class Postmaster furnishes boxes
for the Postoffice, which are turned over
to his successor as the property of the
Government. The box rents belong to
the Postmaster.-H -Harper's Weekly.

The Very Fact That They Are Unseen

with the malaria in the air and the danger
in the water" he continued, ''people need 10
exercise the greatest caution and care. The
trouble with these things is that they come
unaWares ana are often unSuspected. The
germs of malaria are drawn in by every
breath, the seeds of disease are spread by each
swallow of water.''
The doctor looked thoughtful for moment
prevent these dangers and that is TO be watch
ful. Instead OF drinking iced water and other
things all the while, and in place OF permitting
hot and foul air to spread malaria IN the sys-
tenn, people should be watchful ana check
these things on the START
There IS but one way that this can be done,
and that is by the use OF some pure stimulant
constantly or when the slightest feeling of
sickness appears. The only preparation which
has ever been known to certainly counteract
these troubles in time is that great that pOpu-
lar whisky, Duhys Pure Malt. 1t has been
used by the public of America for over twenty
years. and has proven its surprising merits
only by what il has ACCOMPLISHED.
II men and women would counteract the
deadly germs III the water at this seaso on of

Good Agricultural Land for $40
to $50 per Acre.

The Pacific improvement Company has re-
Gently purchased twelve thousand @cres OF
land in the heart of Tehama County, Tor the
purpose of promoting subdivision and settle
ment This land embraces lands from first
class Sacramento Valley agricultural land, to
| land of fair average quality, and is offered az
from SO to $50 per acre, in subdivisions OF
40, so, 12O, 160 and $50 acres.
The terms upon which these lands are offered
are especially attractive. They will be sold in
subdivisions, as above indicated, by the pay
ment of interest only for three years, at which
time the purchaser can begin the payment Of
principal by paying the first OF five equal an
nual installments. Thus no part Of the prin.
cipal is to be paid for three years and then
the purchaser is to have five years in which to
pay five equal annual installments, with in
terest at the rate OF 7 per cent. per annum,
making payments extending over period OF
eight years. Intending purchasers are as
surcd that this is an opportunity TO purchase
land of fair average quality at SO per acre,
and good agricultural land at $40 an acre,
with other grades of land at prices to CORE
spond between these figures
The assertion is frequently made that good
lands, suitable for general farming, ana es-
peoially adapted for fruitgrowing, cannot be
had in California for less than from 500 to
500 an acre. An examination of the land
subject of this advertisement VIII prove to
home-seekers that this is an opportunity for
the purchase of good agricultural land ut $40
an acre, and for qualities grading down to fair
agricultural land at $40 an acre, on terms of
pavment which should make the disposition
of these lands to actual settlers result easy Of
accomplishment.
The primary object of the purchase of this
body of land was the breaking up of large
holding for the purpose of promoting its set
tlement in smaller quantities and its devotion
to diligent husbandry.
