THEY HAVE TROUBLE.
An Express Agent Tells Some of His
Company's Woes.

Gone of the greatest troubles we have
is that people are continually trying to
work us on the valuation of their ship
ments," said an express messenger yes
terday. For instance, a man will come
here with a package of valuables worth,
say $4,000; he will shove it in at us
stating that it is worth $4,000. He does
this so as to avoid paying the heavy en-
press charges which would mount up con-
Siderably in a comparison betweet two
and ten Thousand dollars, as you can
readily see. This being knocked out of
our per cent on that $4,000 is quite an
item in our receipts. These people know
that we will exercise as much care with
$1,000 package as with a $4,000 Of
course, if it is lost we are only responsible
for the $4,000 at which the package is
valued and its owner is out the $4,000
difference. The loss of an express pack
age is rarely, however, and these people
had rather run the risk and cheat us out
of our legitimate earnings than to pay for
honest valuations. Occasionally they get
turned down by a package being lost,
however, and then you hear bowling
most pitiful. They have no alternative
in these cases. They get the marked
value for their package and have to
howl for the balance Then is where we
have the laugh, but nevertheless we are
the losers lots of times on under va,ua-
tons"

A TOUCHING TRIBUTE.
An Extract From DR.. Shoots Sermon at
Mrs. Boroughs' Funeral.

AT the funeral services of Mrs. j. NJ.
BorOughS Saturday morning the Rev.
DIR. Smoot paid the deceased most touch
ing tribute during the course of his brief
talk. of which the following extract is
published at the request of the family and
friends:
This was a sudden and unexpected
death. The whole community was shock
Cd from the family out through the widen
ing circle of her personal influence. a
lady of great qualities of both head and
heart, She came here among us q few
years ago as any other stranger might
come, seeking home and friends with her
husband and family. But soon her intlu-
ence was made manifest in acts of personal
kindness and various works of Christian
charity. She was n lady accomplished in
all the graceS of head and heart, intcli-
gent. of cultivated intellect. graceful,
accomplished and fascinating in her man
ners. Benevolent in every act and adorn-
ing her whole life with the loftcr graces
of pure and expanding Christianity. The
cultivated found her a companion. the
poor found her friend, the needy were
the recipients of her bounty. She moved
in the sphere of Christian lady. All
classes loved her and all classes will miss
her
"Whiic her heart went out in human
sympathy to cheer and comfort and lift
up those that were cast down. it went
itself for its own peace and comfort to
the rock that is higher than any human
fountain. and refreshed itself with the
waters of life which flow from that river,
whose streams make glad the city of our
God. All along life's pilgrimage she was
refreshed with those graceS that build M
the humble and implicit believer.
Her works will follow her as do all
the works of those who die in the Lord.
