- Charles F. Swan, of the Detroit
post office, is famous among his
friends as a story teller. This is one
of his latest:
Dennis Houlihan, public contractor
and an eX-alderman died. He had
come over from Ireland when a boy,
and from the bottom rung of the lad
der had climbed through a series of
failures and successes until at last he
was rewarded with riches in reason
able amount and political preferment
beyond the dream of his ancestors.
The funeral was made notable by the
many beautiful floral offerings sent by
the business and political friends of
the deceased.
When the widow came in for fare
well look at her honest spouse she had
enough of femenine curiosity left to
lamentations. at the flower designs
that surrounded the bier

The widows curious eyes continued
to take in the adornments of the

Better Postal Facilities

v y COMMENTING upon the sue
cess of the effort to obtain a
Il branch post office for the West
Side and upon the endeavor
which is to be made by the congress
man from this district to secure the in
clusion of Lackawanna county within
the limits of rural free delivery, the
Times expresses a hope that some
thing may also be done to secure the
benefits of free delivery in Jermyn,
Archibald, Olyphant. DunmoHe and
Taylor. Our contemporary is doubt
less aware that the rules of the post
office department provide for the eX-
tension of free delivery in boroughs
automatically, based upon the volume
of postal business done in them. 1t is
not probable that exceptions can be
secured to such rules, but we feel sure
that Congressman Connell who is Civ
ing to the question of improving our
postal facilities great deal of careful
attention, will leave nothing undone
which can contribute to the convent
ence of the Inhabitants of those thriv-
ing boroughs.
In the meanwhile. the question of
rural free delivery is one which inter-
ests inhabitants of boroughs scarcely
less than the residents of the townships
themselves, inasmuch as the success
full development of rural mail facili-
ties tends to increase the exchange OF
business between the boroughs and
townships by bringing the people o!
the latter into closer touch with the
markets Of the former and stimulating
wants which are now dormant because
of the infrequency of mail communi-
cations. Wherever rural free delivery
has been tried long enough to cause
its advantages to be thoroughly estab-
lished. the result has uniformly been
additional prosperity in both country
and town: and we see no ason to
doubt that this would also be the effect
in LaCkawanna county.

When Not to Keep Books.

e HE DECIDED that the only way
~ to run a house economically was
TO keep a set of books: she made all
necessary purchases, including a bot
tie of red ink, and started in.
1t was a month later when her hus-
band asked her how she was getting
along
"Splendidly," she replied.
THE system is a success, them"
yes, indeed. Why I'm $50 ahead
already
Sixty dollars!" he exclaimed "Heav-
ems! You'll be rich before long. Have
you started bank account"
Moo; not yet"
what have you done with the
money!"
"Oh, haven't got the money, you
know. That's only what the books
show. But just think Of being $50
ahead"
"Um, yes. But don't exactly
seq"
And all in one month. too"
"Of course; but the money? What
has become of that?"
81 don't exactly know" she said,
doubtfully. i've been thinking of
that. and think we must have been
robbed. What do you think we had
better do about it?"
He puffed his pipe in solemn silence
for moment, and then suggested:
I'VE might stop keeping books.
That's easier than complaining to the
police. IT. +. McGrath in Woman's

hE Si1lI oIbSIDl plll DIS
finally amended in commit
"A. tee and reported to the
house provides that vessels
launced before January last can for
ten years, and vessels launched after
that date can for twenty years, under
certain conditions, receive subsidies
from our government not to exceed So
900 900 in amount in any one year. The
subsidy can be earned by. those vessels
only which are engaged in the foreign
trade of the United States or in trade
between the United States and ports
belonging TO the United States which
are under the navigation laws of the
United States.
Sail and steam vessels are to receive
on each entry, not exceeding sixteen en-
| tries in one year, one and one-half
cents per gross ton for each 100 nau-
| tical miles not exceeding 500 outward
bound, and the same distance home
ward bound, and one cent for each ad-
| ditional 100 miles, provided that full
compensation shall not be allowed, un-
| less the ship shall have cleared from a
| United States port with cargo to the
amount of fifty per cent of her gross
| tonnage, tonnage space sold by the
! year or for any period of time. and
| space devoted to passengers and mails
! to be deducted. In addition to the
| above compensation steam vessels are
to receive graded allowances, based on
| their size and speed, the lowest being
| four -tenths of a cent per gross ton for
each one hundred nautical miles sailed
outward bound by vessels of more
than two tousand gross tons. and with
a speed of eleven knots and less than
! twelve, and the highest being two and
| three-tenths cents per gross ton for
each one hundred nautical miles sailed
outward bound by vessels of more
| than ten thousand gross tons and with
a speed of twenty-one knots or over.
An amendment makes the graded rate
for homeward bound voyages so per
cent of the outward bound rates. The
effect is to reduce the compensation
that would have been allowed by the
| original bill. In the original bill no
|
to receive graded compensation. The
limit in the amended bill is eleven
knots.
The expenditures in any one year are
limited to 100000, as in the original
bill, but an amendment is inserted pro-
viding that no more than seventy per
cent shall be expended in any one year
in respect of vessels engaged i'm the
! Atlantic Ocean and Gulf trade, except
in case the vessels in the Pacific trade
shall not require the whole amount OF
thirty per cent of the $9,0O0,0O0 A new
section is inserted limiting the COM
pensatiOn under the act to vessels of
class Al, and another new section pro-
vides that vessels launched after Jan
uary l., 1900, shall receive full compen-
satlon for the first ten years. and that
FOR the next ten years there shall be
