MONEY ORDER BUSINESS.


The business at the Mankato post
office for 1898 was the largest in it's his
tory. The sale of stamps, envelopes,
postal cards, etc, amounted to ST.
523 Oh more than in 1897, while the in
creased expense of the Office over 1897
was 1861 20, Of this increase $3.50 SO
is on account of the free delivery sys-
tenn, $1S3 AZ on account of increase of
clerk hire, and $107 0S on account of in
crease in incidental expenses
The increase in domestic money or.
ders issued over 1897 amounts to So.
22371, while falling off In interna-
tional money orders issued is found to
amount to $215 So The increase of do
nestle money orders paid over that of
1897 is quite sum, amounting in
round figures to $11,264
A large decrease in surplus money
order funds deposited with the post
master is accounted for by ruling of
the department permitting posJmas-
tiers to remit their surplus money order
funds by drafts or checks which caused
the change of depositing from Mankato
to Minneapolis to save exchange.

slant, aged 20 years, months. He
had not been of firm health for some
years aud drew a pension from disability
contracted in the service of his country,
in the 2lst Maine Volunteers, but had
been able to do some work until few
weeks ago when he suffered from para
lytc shock and the second one, Friday,
resulted in his death.
He was quiet, worthy man aud much
attached to his children. He had been
twice married but his second wife died
some years ago. Five children survive
him, three of his first wife, Owen of Old
Town and Mrs. Webber of Lexington
and Mrs. Lewis of Shawmut, and two
small children of his second wife.
He was for some years a member of
Russell Post G. A. r. but of late be-
cause of increasing years and difficulty
in attending meetings had not been a
member. A good number of the com
rades of the Post attended the funeral
services, four of them served as bearers
and the Post contributed a floral wreath.
Rev. Geo. f.. Leighton, pastor of the
Universalst church, conducted the fune-
raj services. The burial was in the
North cemetery, Sunday afternoon.
