The innovations which the young
czarina is making in the etiquette OF
the Russian court are meeting with a
good deal of opposition from some of
the Muscovite ladies. Among the
changes her imperial majesty has or
dained that presentations shall be
made in the English fashion, the SOW

of the dowager empress. The Rus.

BY the Doekery men, but in these coun-
ties the Russell manipulators raised

ers received q whirlwind of applause
showing that there was not even a
semblance or pretense of justice in the
heart Of the majority.
Mr.. Smathers was a member Of the

minority report, sought to find the
rightful parties just as an honest
Judge seeks to do equity, and it was
in striking contrast to the action OF

Novel Plan to Save Postage.

CEDAR RAPIDS, la. March 29.-What
is evidently violation of the postal
laws and yet point which is not COW
cred in the laws, has just been unearthed
by Postmaster Charles of this city. Some
months ago young business man, who
is married, rented lock box and depos.
tied the necessary sum for two
keys to the box. One of these
keys he gave to a young girl with
whom he was corresponding. When a
letter was written by either party to the
other it was simply carried to the box
and deposited therein without going
through the hands of the employees or
without bearing a postage stamp.
Charles has referred the matter to the
authorities at Washington for an opin-
ion. A sensation is likely to grow out
of the discovery.
