CHINESE POSTAL SERVICE
DELIVERY SYSTEM IN LARGE
CITIES.
Celestial Ideas of the Postman's Re-
sponsibility-It Does Not Accord with
Our Western Notions

The modern postal service introduce
ed into China only a couple of years
ago has already proved a great sue
cess, and in nearly all of the large ci-
ties the mail is now delivered by uni
formed carriers, just as 1t is in Chica-
go or London. These carriers, howev-
err, assume great risks and responsible
tiles, for only the other day in the city
of Marking one of the mandarins or
dered the postman who served the dis
triCt in which he lived to be bambooed
and cangued, two of the most cruel
methods of punishment known to the
heather. Upon inquiry by the English
superintendent of the postal service as
to the reason for such arbitrary con-
duct it was found that the postman had
delivered at the house of his accuser a
sealed anonymous letter which contain
ed bits of singing sarcasm concerning
his avarice, eXtortion, ignorance, etc.
Under the Chinese code of justice the
carrier who brought the letter was re-
sponsible for its contents, although 1t
was sealed. 1t has always been the
rule in China to punish the bearer of
bad news, and the mandarin proposed
to apply it to the modern postal SER
vice introduced by the foreign dew
lis" but the Englishman who has the
charge of the postal service finally con-
WINGED the mandarin that the postman
was in no way responsible for the in
suit, and secured his release
