New COlOrs on the Letter Boxes.

Before the general introduction Of
aluminium for painting street letters
boxes which is now used in all the
cities OF this country, il was the Gus
tom in some of the larger cities to paint
the boxes themselves different colors
which would signify the frequency of
collections; those in large cities paint
ed red being collected hourly during
business hours. Following somewhat
this. idea the posts of the street letter
boxes in this city are to be painted
different colorS. This would have been
done NJ the time the boxes were paint
ed, early last winter. but the early fan
of snow and coming of cold weather
did not permit it,
Commencing this morning. the street
letter box posts throughout the entire
city viii b. painted The posts viii BE
painted with Prussian blue on the low
er third. while the upper part will be
painted either red or light green. All
boxes with red post come within the
evening collection, while those having
green posts are collected by the letter
carriers when on the last afternoon
delivery and the contents placed in
some other box or carried To the post
office at that time. All patrons Of the
postal service, in this city will now
remember that all boxes in the city
without regard to color Of post. are col
lected Sunday nights and holidays
commencing AT > o'clock on all other
days the boxes on the red and blue
posts only come under the evening col
lection commencing at o'clock. New
time cards will be placed in the boxes
at the time they are painted.

at is a matter Of common belief. saws
/. II. o Common, that in the extremely
unlikely event of the entire abolition of
all titIlar distinctions in this country her
maJcsty's present royal designation would
be reduced Ia the simple formula of Mrs
Guelph This is an entire mistake. The
queens legal name, We're she by some
mysterious process to become a simple
commoner. would be Mrs Victim, by
virtue of her marriage with Prince Albert
of SaXe-C oburg-Gotha, whose name, strip
ped of territorial and other furnishings

Duke of SaXc-Weimar and the Duke of
SaXc-Meningen, as well Is the Prince Of

CHAPTER XVIII.

on Jacques Dantin went to the corner
Of the cemetery at Montmartre, where
his friend lay And he always carried
flowers 1t had become to him, since
the terrible strain Of his detention, a
necessity, habit The dead are living.
They wait, they understand they listen.
1t seemed TO Dantin that he had but
ono aim. Mas. what had been the
wish, the IL t dream. of the dead man
would never be realized. That fortune
which Rovere had intended for the
child whom he had no right to call his
own would go was going TO some far
off cousins IF whose existence the ex-
consul was not even aware perhaps, and
whom he certainly had never known
TO some indifferent persons, once rcla-
tives, strangers

to tell me what his intentions were re-
garding his daughter" Dantin often
thought. What would become Of her,
the poor girl, who knew the secret Of
her birth and who remained silent,
piously devoting herself to the old sol
der whose Eame she bore?
One day in February, sad gray day,

M. Bcrnardet hurried on. Tho little

yes, yes, waiting for him and asking
for him around the table at home. He
looked at the paper which he had
bought. Paul Rodier, in regard TO the
question which he, Bernardct, had
raised, had interviewed savants, phys
biologists, psychologists, and in good
journalistic style had published the
evening before tho trial the result of
his inquest.
NJ. Bernardet read as he fastened
