POST OFFICE MATTERS.
Postmaster Hayward Returned to
Duty This Afternoon.

Postmaster Hayward returned to duty
this afternoon and hereafter he will be
on deck daily.
Ex-Postmaster George calls at the
Office every day to wind up affairs con-
nected with his regime and lend any aid
in his power to the newcomers. Assis
tant Postmaster Walker is becoming very
popular. He has had TO ofticiate in Mr..
Hayward's absence for several days.
Owing TO the change in the time table
of the New York, New Haven 4 Hartford
Railroad Company, the Sunday evening
collections from street boxes will be here
after made at 1880 O'Clock, instead of s
d. IN. as on week days and heretofore.
Several complaints have come in because
collectors of the boxes i'm the evening do
not collect at the same minute every
night, sometimes being later than
on others. The trouble is that
heretofore the police have COM
planned that some of the collectors
have been driving too fast, so the post
office authorities have been obliged to
change tactics. Hereafter everybody
who drops his letter in a
box before s O'Clock in the evening
on week days, and 1880 p. m. Sundays
will be sure to get his letter
when the collectors leave the post
office. They will reach the boxes
as early as possible afterward. Those per-
sons who have been in the habit of
waiting until 10 minutes efter these hours
may or may not get their letters into the
postofiice the same night.

FOR SHIP BUILDERS.
More Than Probable That Japan Will
Increase Her Fleet.

WASHINGTON, July 10. 1t is the belief
among naval officers that Japan will use
a large part of the war indemnity which
China Is to pay her for the purpose of
materially increasing her navy The
financial resources of Japan will be very
abundant during the coming year, as she
will receive over 800, 900, 900 before next
May and there after about 800 0OO, 900 a
year for five years. This viii be drawn
from China and will be in addition to
Japau's usual receipts from customs and
internal revenue. The customs receipts
promise to be very large, as the new
treaties which Japan has effected with
leading nations will bring about re-
adjustment of tariff duties SO that much
greater returns will be realized.
1t is owing to this assurance of an
ample treasury that American ship build
ing firms have turned their attention
toward Japan.
The authorities there have already in
n icated their purpose of using consider
able part of the funds on new ships. A
Japanese naval expert visited here some
time since and went to the various Ameri-
can yards. Mr.. Kurino, the minis
ter also visited the Cramp yards. II was
due to the minister's reports as to the ex-
cellence of American ship building that
the naval expert was sent from Japan.
AS result of the talks there seemed
little doubt that one or more large ships
would be ordered by Japan. The Gov
= ernment was certainly disposed that way,
and il believes that II delay has occurred

the conditions imposed by the American

BECKETT'S FRIEND.
A Chance Acquaintance That Was
Better Than Ready Money.

BY strict attention TO his work and consid
cradle economy George Beckett has managed
to lay away about S2lO in tho Citizens Saw
ings Bank, and always has SI0O or more
in his pocket in case Of emergency. Yesterday
morning Beckett left his home. 81 Winter
street, and fell in with Nicholas Allen, and,
according to the police, the pair visited nearly
every liquor store from Christian Hill TO
Smiths Hill. Allen had no money and
Beckett paid all the bills.
They returned to the vicinity OF Winter
street about o o'clock in the evening. Allen
told his new found friend that he was without
home or shelter and Beckett, being of a
kindly disposition, gave Allen his supper and
invited him to share his bed. Allen accepted.
Beckett woke up at O'Clock this plornin 2
and found that Allen had gone. He then ex-
amined his pockets and found that his bank
book for S2l0o and Sl5l in cash were missing.
This he reported to the police.
Allen has been in this city for year or
more and was until three months ago one Of
the statesmen in the fruit department at the
Public Market. He was in the market this
morning about 10 o'clock and made quite a
display of money, much more than his former
shopmates had ever seen him have. He comes
from Lowell, Mass. but has travelled quite
extensively. Mr.. Beckett has stopped pay
ment on the bank book.

Her father, t. ID. Lyons was then, as no
Is now, one of the best character actors on
the English speaking stage, and little
Gretchen appeared TO hove inherited his
ability. When she was five years of age,
the embryo ingenue made her first appear
arco in the company of the celebrated Kate
Bateman. In the English metropolis. This
was followed by long engagement under
the managerial banner of Augustus Har-
ris during which she played child parts In
"Pluck and other comedies. Miss Lyons
next role was In that elaborate but absurd
panorama, Human Nature" which was
foolishly denominated q play, and which
later enjoyed some success in this country
under tho title of "rhe Soudan."
At about this time Miss Lyons parents
decided that instead OF acting and study
ing lessons she must give up the former
temporarily and devote herself exclusively
to her books. She was therefore packed
off to one of the best schools In England,
where she remained uuial last year, when,
her father having scored great success as
member Of Richard Mapsfleld's COM
pany, she came over to this country.
Miss Gretchcn's first American engage
ment was In the company of Edwin Milton
Royle, with whom she remained during the
entire season, playing the part of Jennie
Merrewether in the comedy drama,
"Friends, SO well that she received ex-
travagant praise for her work from critics
in all parts Of the country. Miss Lyons Is
now with the supnsr stock company ut
tho Academy Of Music, Quebec. She has
been cast for the ipgenue and soubrette
roles in large number Of the standard
comedies For next season Miss Lyons has
not decided which Of the offers under con-
sideration she will accept.
In appearance Miss Lyons is attractive,
although she Is not, strictly speaking,
pretty. She IL very vivsoious, and ber
stage work Is marked by much Of the orig
inality of conception for which her father
is noted. She ought to win even greater
triumphs I'm her chosen profession.
