TIME CARD o. S. L. Ry.


A movement is on foot to have
congress pass law admitting par
cells of merchandise to the mail at
n very low rate Of postage Among
the arguments used is the fact that
in Great Britian the postage on par
cells is six cents for the first pound
and two cents for each additional
pound up to eleven pounds, which
Is the limit, thus making the cost
of sending an elven pound package
thirty-six cents. The postal service
of the United States has deficit
now of S9,0O0,000 a year for opera
ting expenses, and that deficit
would be two or three times larger
if such law was enacted, and the
people would pay the shortage. 1t
is a scheme Of the big department
stores Of the larger cities to ruin
the trade of the country merchants.
Daily World, Lawrence, Kan.
1t cannot be denied that thcre
is some truth in the above clipping
but in forming conclusion there
are other points.
While such transportation would
apparently, and for time, give the
consumer cheaper goods and
greatly reduce the profit Of the ex-
press companies it would beyond a
doubt drive from ourmidst the retail
merchants. For the department
stores with such a rating could sell
goods in almost every line except
heavy hardware to compete with
or beat, by small margin, home
prices.
After such plan the department
stores would be induced to cell
goods very close until the country
stores were forced to drop out OF
business then gradually mcraese
prices and reap their harvest. And
too, when the retail dealer is gone
the consumer would be forced to
look to the department stores fol
the heavy weight articles which
would, TO a great extent, If not
wholly, counterbalunce the gain OF
the previous months.
1t certainly would not be pruc-
teal step for the consumers TO fost-
or practice that would in time
tliminate the country stores and
take from their immediate door an
honest enterprise which affords
them an opportunity of immediate
and direct selection and conyen-
fence that cannot be gotten from a
distant store without substantial
rating and then not completely. but
on the other hand it certainly is
their duty to trade with home III
dustries there 10y enabling them tc
make better terms, so long as the
merchant manifests an honest bus
mess like disposition. and furnish
es kind and quality of goods
wanted from which TO select.
1t is not ours TO dictate bui
many who spend a dry or two and
money for expenses while gone i'll
going to adjoining towns for $40
Sl5, or $50 worth Of goods would
be winners in the end to buy al
home if they stop to consider time
and the advantages gained b. The
home merchant ia getting 'oG
cash and being able to cope wl,h
other or foreign markets.

MUCH DAMAGE DONE
By the Recent Bridges and
 Railroads Washed Away.

The heavy rain which prevailed continuously in this section of the country Tuesday and today, has done much damage to the recently planted crops and besides entailed great loss to property. Greeks, bayous and small streems are out of their banks and reports of great damage to the various county and prlvate bridges are coming in every hour.
 The rain storm was accompanied by an electrical display and heavy eIaps of thunder were frequent oc curences. Lightning struck negro boy named Waterhouse at his home on West Puilen street, aud render ed him helpless for several hours. He is gradually recovering. MT. 0. J. Heath, tbe manager of the local Postal telegraph office, tells US that lightning struck his wires at Al theimer and caused the company much annoyance. Two poles were burned at that polat by being ig- nited Dy the llgh thing.
 A report reached this city today that the Pine Bluff X Western road suffered a track washout few miles Southwest of town. The cemetery bridge at the West end of Barraque street was torn from it's foundation and is now unfit for use. Other damages 0. like nature is reported.
 The weather man says the wealth CT will be much colder tonight and heavy frost will prevail throughout the South. If frost occurs, it will doubtless do great damage to fruit. The State street bridge between Eleventh and Twelfth ayenups, popularlY known as Saw dust bridge was washed away.

THIS HERO WORE NO UNIFORM
He Brayed Death in a Polsonoe1s Well
 to save His Neigbbors.

From the Kansas City Journal Near Maple City, in Cewley county, one day last week, Farmer John Ste- yenson and his hired man went down into a well to clean it out. Both were overcome by foul air and were stone dead when taken from the well. On the same day, at the little village Of Catharine, in Ellis county, similar catastrophe resulted in bringing forth a hero whose name is worthy of enrolment among the best and great est. Paul Meis went down into his fathers well after a fallen bucket. He was overcome by the gas and became unconscious. William Pelzel bravely went down after Meis, and he in turn suecumbed to the deadly vapor Then Paul Keoner went down after the other two and met similar fate, and this was the situation when Henry Karin arrived on the scene. Without mo- ment's hesitation Karlin had rope tied beneath his arms and silk hand kerchief over his face, and he was then lowered i'll the well carrying an extra rope. Reaching the bottom he hastily tied the loose rope around the leg of a man and the man was hoisted to the surface. Twice this operation was re- peated, and then Karin was hauled out, he having become unconscious just as he finished tying the rope on the last man. All four remained uncon- scious for long time. but doctors finally succeeded in bringing them around Neither Pelzel nor Keoner knew the danger they were going into, as they had never heard of water gas, but Karin did, and he took the chances like hero

queer Occupation of Crowd Of With
 cred Danes.
 London has many queer things in the huge extent Of it's area, but none queerer than its women guardians of the streets, for London, unknown to most of it's inhabitants. has police force the like of which does not exist in any other city on earth. In order to see it work you must get up very early on Friday morning and visit Co., vent Garden market. There you will see such block of traffic and such a crowd of angry and unreasonable driY- CTS that yon will not be surprised at the Metropolitan police giving Up the duty of keeping order as an impossi ble job. But still you will find that things come right in the end, and on looking to find how this is brought about you will probably be shocked to discover that Covent Garden has po- lice force all to itself in the shape of some hundred or so of old women. They dart in and out among the cars, order the drivers to stop, or back their horses, or move on. They shout and swear and shake their fists and catch the horses heads and, if necessary, shy turnips or potatoes at the drivers. But they always succeed in having their own way But for these women it is believed that it would be necessary to read the riot act every Saturday morn ing in Coyent Garden. As it is. the women police make comfortable liv- ing out of their profession, the drivers giving them daily tips while the pro- prietors pay them a fair salary.

How to Lay Bricks.

Estimates are based by the 1000 bricks laid in q wall It is customary to deduct for doors, windows. arches. etc, but not for flues, ends of 1oists. girders, window frames. sills or lin= tels. In a general way, a four and one half inch wall will require seven bricks to the square foot: fourteen for nine-inch wall, etc Tunnel and arch brickwork is measured by the cu- bic yard. It requires thirty-eight bricks, eight and ene-quarter by four by two, with points one-third to one- fourth inch wide, to lay one square yard if laid fiat. If placed on edge, it will take seventy-three, while if on end, 149. Ornamental work, such as cornices and beads, is produced by causing courses of bricks to project beyond the place of the rest. In laying walls, the first principle to be observed, in order to gain the greatest resistance, is to have the bricks of successive courses overlap each other, so that the joint between the two is overlaid by the middle Of a brick. What is known as the old English bond and which gives the, greatest strength consists in arranging the bricks in alternate courses of stretchers and headers the former being bricks laid longitudinally with the wall and the other transverse ly. The headers serve to bind the sey- eral courses together.
