QUEER POSTAL SERVICE
That OF Havana when the United
states Took Charge OF
Its system.

Under the Spanish system the letter
carriers received their pay by charging
from three to 1--WE cents, and sometimes
more, for every letter they delivered.
IT took only day or two TO have that
system abolished in Hanvana, much to
the relief OF the merchants. The car
riers were put on salaries equivalent to
that which they were supposed to earn
by ytheassessmentm method they were per-
mitted to use under the former regime.
The carriers under the Spanish sys-
tenn not only charged for the delivery
of mail matter, but they rincd letters
freely, and made money by stealing
stamps from mail matter and selling
them. The letters and other grades of
mail matter would be forwarded with
out stamps. and the carrier at the other
end Of the route would collect not only
for delivery, but for the stamps that
had been stolen. There was simply an
unparalleled looseness in the condues
of post Office business, and every man
scemedto have license to steal wherever
he could. Even newspapers would be
stolen from bundles and sold for what
ever could be got for them.
Another form of corruption was eTi-
dent when the salary lists were ex-
amined. There was no scale Of salaries.
Ia one city postmaster would receive
twice the salary that the postmaster Of
a larger city received. Salaries seemed
to be arranged on the pull plan, with
the possibilities Of division with the APP
pointing power afterward. Places that
under the liberal payment Of the United
States would rate at 81 500 year were
worth frequently as much as $4,000 a
year.-Harper's Weekly.

FIRE SERVICE IN ENGLAND.
The Force Employed in London IN
only Half aa Large as That
OF Paris.

The British towns seem to have the
smallest number Of paid iiremen ofany
cities in Europe and America, says Mu-
nicipal Affairs. The London fire brig
ade has about 500 men, about the same
number as Berlin, which has only a
fourth of the population, and less than
one-half the size of the Paris corps.
GLASGOW has but 100 men 10 100000 pop
ulation: Leeds but 80 to 100000 people,
and Sheffield % men to q population Of
35O,000 Liverpool, Bristol, Cardiff,
Norwich, Bromley and other towns
have no separately organized fire de-
partment, the work of suppressing fires
being performed by the regular police
force. The expenditures for fire protec-
ton are on similarly unimportant
scale. Thus Leeds spends less than
$4,000 o year, and Sheffield less than
$4,000 a year; Preston, with popula-
ton of 49, 900. reports only $500 spent
for its fire brigade, and Norwich. with
100000 population, only $3.50 year. :
few towns, however. show a somewhat
larger range Of expenditure. Glasgow
and Liverpool each annually cvpond IN
the neighborhood Of S75.o0o- about ter
cents per capita-and proportional,
amounts are expended by Edinburgh
[ Dublin, Belfast and salford Tho Lon.
don brigade costs about So5o,0o0. or q
cents per capita. But even these eXcep

A TOUCHING SCENE.

/ have seen the American flag in
many countries and circumstances. Il
have seen it floating at the head Of |
great war squadron. 1 once saw it car
ried. ragged and wet with blood, but
triumphant from q battle field which
was strewnwith the corpses ofmen who
had died to defend it. But nowhere
has it seemed to me more touching and
impressively used than in a homely
little scene Of which 1 happend to be
witness during the civil war
In August, 1863, / was going from
West Virginia to Philadelphia through
Pennsylvania. The south-bound trains
that Summer were heavily loaded with
troops and provisions for the army but
going back they carried few passen-
gers.
At Pittsburg when the train rolled
into the station, a great, silent crowd
waited for 1t. A funeral car stood in
the background surrounded by troops,
and the street was filled by a long line
Of closed carriages. a volunteer Off
Ger in the Union army who had been
man Of influence and high position
in Pittsburg, had been killed in the
last battle, and now his native city
mourned for him and did him honor.
The coffin, rich in decorations and
covered with flowers, was reverently
borne from the car. The troops pre-
scented arms, the standards, draped
with black, were lowered. and the air
was filled with the solemn music Of
funeral marches.
After a short delay the train rolled
on its way.
Late that afternoon it stopped at a
little station among the Allegheny
Mountains. The station house was but
a rough shed: a pig was roofing under
the platform Tn the background was
a squalid cabin in a potato patch. The
whole landscape spoke Of barennesa
and helpless poverty
Standing on the platform was a wo-
. man. a poor country girl She wore
= an old, patched gown that clung Imply
to her thin body. and a calico sunbon-
net which she had thrown back that
she might better watch the train A
little barefooted boy clung TO her, but
she did not heed him. Her face was
pinched and bloodless. She leaned for
j. ward, staring with childish. dilatel
eyes into each car as it passed.
, There was grating sound as tn,

promptly admitted. When he had
learned all he wanted he asked, with
gross intentional impudence, whether
the information was really true.
The governor turned purple. by

"Oh, don't get gayl" replied Jones
airily; common governors cut no ice

The old man foamed at tho mouth,
"You insolent scoundrel," he roared,
