An UnIucky Postman.

A postman belonging to the imperial
postoffice at Marking was suddenly
and summarily arrested the other day
by one of the high mandarins in that
city and thrown into the district magis-
trate's yamen to be bambooed and
cangued. Upon inquiry by the postal
authorities as to the reason of such
arbitrary conduct it appeared that this
postman had been guilty of having de-
livered to his accuser's yamen in the
course of his rounds an anonymous let
ter which contained whole pages of cut
ting sarcasms accusing the receiver of
the letter of avarice, extortion, etc. The
irate mandarin made the unlucky post
man responsible for the obnoxious let
ter, saying that he had no right to de-
liver such matter to his yamen. The
commissioner of customs of Wuhu, who
had been notified of the affair, extri-
Gated the postman out of his difficult

Deadlock over the Proposed Electric
Road Route.

Road Route,
The hearing given by the selectmen Sat
urday upon the petition of the electric road
projectors to build their line through Pine
street to the top of the terrace upon a diff
ferent grade than now drew large num-
her of interested persons to the town clerk S
Office. For a week the drawings of the
civil engineer had been on file with Mr..
Bolles, showing the proposed elevation OPP
posite the land of each abutter The re-
quest was to raise the grade gradually be-
tween Henry street extension and Burt
Place not to exceed three feet and to cut
down the street near the top of the terrace
about 10 feet, thus making about per
cent grade. They asked that they might
put their tracks up in the bank outside the
highway portion of the way and so not
grade the street up to correspond. 10 this
the owners of lots on the west side of the
street strenuously objected because of in
Jury to them, while the abutters on the
east side objected as strenuously to having
the grade of the street raised. Nearly ev-
cry lawyer in town appeared in opposition
to the petitioners except Geo. A. Weston,
who represented the interests of the road.
The larger part of the day was consumed
in the discussions and the selectmen took
the matter under advisement to report
later. 1t is understood the board do not
see their way clear to grant the request for
the change of grade; that the road pro
jectors feel they cannot use the present
steep grade with safety and that no one
can as yet suggest any way out of the
seeming deadlock. Mr.. Holton and Engl-
neer Nash went to Burlington Wednesday
to confer with the other promoters of the
road. No other route to reach the top of
the terrace seems to be feasible.
