WOES OF MAIL-CARRIERS.
Laws Regarding Them Will Be
Strictly Enforced.
One Of Their Own Number Blamed for
Causing Trouble Which May
Prove. Serious.

The mail-carriers of this city will get
out no more Christmas souvenirs. The
trouble which has been caused by the last
one may result seriously with all the car
riers, as Postmaster McCoppin will be
compelled to report to the department at
Washington that all of the men have been
guilty of violating the rules of the service.
The law is very plain on the subject.
Section 500 of the postal laws and regula-
tons, in the part.which refer. to the mat
ter at issue, reads as follows;
They 1.-THE carriers are also forbidden to
sollc1t in person, or through others, contribu-
tons OF money, gifts or presents; TO issue ad-
dresses, complimentary cards, prints publicai
tions or any substitute therefor, intended or
calculated to induce the public to make them
gifts or presents; to sell tickets on their routes
to theaters, concerts balls, fairs picnics, excur-
sions or places of amusement or entertain
ments OF any kind.
The regulation is a very old one, and has
been enforced only once during the men,
ory of any one connected with the Post
Office. 1t has been the general custom to
issue Christmas or New Year souvenirs,
and for the carriers to distribute them
along their routes. Persons presented
with the souvenirs have generally given
money or presents to their favorite carriers
in return as an exchange of holiday greet
lngS.
Few of the carriers intimated they ex-
pected presents, but in some cases mer-
chants have been given to infer they would
not get good service if "tip" were not
forthcoming.
All of the carriers seen yesterday blame
William King, carrier at Station D, for
getting them into trouble. According to
their story King persisted in his intima-
tons that he expected money or present
from T. J. Parsons, manager of the Del
Monte Milling Company, until Parsons
reported the matter to the department at
Washington. They said that King and
his wife are worth about $4,000, and that
King has regularly obtained presents from
merchants on his route for many years.
Parsons is also blamed for reporting the
matter to Washington instead of to Post
master McCoppin.

LIGHT IN LIEU OF BELL.
The Latest Improvement in the Bell
American System.

The Latest Improvement in the Bell
American System.
Once in while a newspaper in the far
East springs q sensation on itself. 1t gem
orally gets its information from the local
Morgue or from facts and figures concern
ing the mortuary record of the town.
Such a sensation was sprung recently by
an Eastern journal in an article describing
a new telephone annunciator.
L. c. Jacoby, general superintendent of
the Bell-American Telephone Exchange in
this city, had hearty laugh when shown
the article yesterday.
"Why, all the latest improvements that
are mentioned in that article have been in
regular practice here for two months. The
system of the silent annunciator has not
been generally introduced, but it has been
introduced sufficiently long to make it
known and appreciated. There can be no
mistake about a call under this system.
Whenever the bell rings it kindles a light
right in front of the operator. The lamp
burns until the call is answered. If the
call is not answered within a given space
of time the light is made to burn again.
That's ALL If the operator is sleepy it will
be recorded on the daily routine dial.'

such debts as these, and they should be

IN the matter, as in a few months mer-
