WASHINGTON, Nov. Is. First Assist
ant Postmaster General Frank 81.
Jones, Of Illinois, who has super
vision Of the divisions Of salaries
and allowances, free delivery, post
Office supplies money order sys-
tenn, dead letter Office and corre-
spondence, has submitted his annual
report for the year ended June
20 last to the postmaster general.
Tie report is a very Interesting one
and covers the most important
branches of the service. Mr.. Jones
reviews his recommendation of last
year as to the growing evil of boycot-
ting of post offices. He saws:
The compensation Of postmasters at nost
oflces OF the fourth class consists mainly OF
the cancellation Of postage stamps upon mat
ter actually mailed at their Offices In MANY
cases, owing to political differences, selfish
motives OF storekeepers, petty jealousies or
personal feeling from other causes, the COM
pensatOn OF postmasters is serious cur
tailed by collecting and mailing letters on
the cars, or sending them to an
adjoining post office for mailing, thereby de-
prlvlng the fOurth-class postmaster Of his
cancellations, and consequently reducing his
salary and depriving first and second-class
postmasters of their sale Of stamps, thereby
reducing the receipts and Office allowances.

communities and Is such an interference with
the usual and regular disposition of the mails
as i'll my Judgment calls for legislation by con-
gress.'
The report shows the total allowance
for clerks hire to have been IS, go, 331,
and SIS, $4,000 on account of salaries to
postmasters at presidential offices, of
which there were 3,4O2. The gross re-
ceipts of those offices was $5S, 6S5, O25
for the year. New York has the
largest number of post offices of any
state, leading with $50, and Pennsyl-
vania second with 24s. Sixteen million
dollars were appropriated on account
Of the postmasters' salaries this year.
and Mr. Jones estimates that SIG, $780,
900 will be sufficient for the next fiscal
year.
Mr.. Jones suggests that the expert
mental free delivery in towns and viii
lagos be discontinued at the close of
the current fiscal year. He says the
proposed system Of rural free delivery
would result in an additional cost to
the government of about 800, 900 for the
first year, and he is not in favor of the
scheme

In the heart of untrodden jungles,

over the Drinks of precipices, where
tropical creepers twist like snakes
choking the life out of younger
growths, where orchids faunt aloft,
and strange vines bloom, there the
teakwood grows. Against its cor
rugated bark tigers and leopards
sharper their claws, and under it's thick
shade strange beasts rest by day.
That atom of animate destruction

growths have reared their heads out
of the jungle around it. have grown,
have lived their day, died, and rotted
back to the roots which supplied them
with life. In comparison man has been
a midget, a mote in the sun, hunting
his fellow animals with tiint-headed
arrows and stone axes, fitting, pass
ing, gone; but the great oaks have
grown, have spread their arms benig-
nantly over the dust of tiny shapes be-
meath, and, planted in dignity, have
stood as emblems of strength and
power in meditations lasting one,
two, three, five and six hun
dred years. They have secreted the
units of time in their hearts as maiden
hides the thoughts of her first love.
Days have come as thick as the SHOWS
that fall on Kunchinjinga, or as the
waves crowding one another to the
shores of the Bengal sea. And then,
as if to give color to the superstition
of the hill-man long since gone with
his tribe to the land where shadows
fall deeper than those cast by the teak
tree in the jungle, out Of these en-
blems Of strength has grown a weak

IT is s remarkable fact that the
deepest parts of the sea are in all cases
very near the land. The deepest
sounding known, 1865 fathoms, or 81
$50 feet, was obtained 10 miles from
the Kurile islands; the next deepest,
4,561 fathoms, was found 70 miles
north Of Porto Rico. With few ex-
ceptions like these the depth of the
oceans, as far as now known, does not
reach 1900 fathoms, or 4 sea miles.
The north Pacific has a mean depth of
1850 fathoms, the south Pacific Of o.
400, the Indian ocean Of 1900, and the
Atlantic, by far the best investigated
ocean, has mean depth Of 1900.
