SnurCn.
Rev. Nels Eagle, who has been con-
nected with the Thomas street Second
Swedish M. E. church since 1895. Is to
resign his position with that church.
This action is the result of an urgent
call, which he received some time ago

church visited this city and strenuous

CONTRACT LET.
Mr.. W. G. Burgess Will Attend to Fumi-
eating the Malls.

Postmaster Read yesterday received
notification from the authorities in
Washington that thereafter he must
have all mail leaving this city fumigat-
cd according to Il certain prescribed
method enclosed in the order The
first mail to be fumigated left yester-
day afternoon. The contract to f,lmi-
gate the mails has been let to Mr. w.
G. Burgess. Of the Warwick Pharmacy
he had the necessary apparatus on
hand and was ready to start in at once
to the fultillment of the contract
1t requires an hour to fumigate the
letters according to this method and
1t will therefore be necessary for those
wishing to get letters off in a certain
mail. to get them into the postofiice at
least TWO hours before train time
There are now but two mails each
day, these coming in and going out over
the Chesapeake Il Ohio. The business
of the postoflicc is therefore very much
congcstcd and the force is much over
worked. But Postmaster Read is doing
the best he can under the crcumStan-
ces, and has So far succeeded in scrv-
ing the patrons Of the office with very
little delay in spite Of the heavy bust
ness.
