Free Rural Mail Deliverx,.

Special Agent Boylan, of Uncle Sans
free rural mail delivery service arrived
In Ryan yesterday morning, and in COM
pany with Postmaster Ireland, w. b.
Robson and the writer, took tour
of inspection over the propo sed route.
The preliminary work necessary be-
fore the attention of the department
was called to the route, was done by
w. B. Robinson and G. G. Barry, and
the farmers who will derive the bene-
fit should feel grateful toward these
gentlemen. Two different routes were
laid out aad the most feasible one will
be recommended by Mr.. Boylan and, if
acted fayorahly upon, its establishment
will date from Sept. 1st.
The route Will run west from here
and the first hou e at which delivery
will be made will d abtless be that of
E. @. Pound. The carrier will go south
one mile from Hurley's corner and then
west to McAreavy's creamery. Here
again the route branches north again,
but any farmer living lees than Eve
miles from the creamery can erect q
suitable box at the creamery and have
his mail put in it. From McAreavy's
creamery the route runs north to the
Silver Creek postoffice and on to Lack
ers creamery. From there it goes south
to Anthony Swindle's corner and then
east, north and west. One of the routes
would reach Kenyon's creamery, two
miles south of Masonville, while the
other would not reach as far north, but
would take in number of residences
north of Barryville, while either route
would strike Barryville. From Barry
Vile the route will come south to Nc
Clouds corner, then east to Ryan.
When established this route will be
the first one in Delaware county, and
whether or not it is to be a permanent
institution rests entirely with the pa
irons. If they show proper apprecia-
ton, by keeping the roads in good con-
dition and rendering other assistance in
facilitating the work, Uncle Sam will
do his share, and successful route will
have tendency to increase the price of
land from three to five dollars per acre.

cago, as well as all the important sys-
tens east Of the Mississippi river is a

with prominent members OF the order

sympathy action, to help the Southern
strikers win. Secret meetings have
been held several times. The Chicago
operators have been asked to contrib

said today that the Chinese reforners
In Canada were alarmed at the action

just received from the Orient to be

Chinese In America, who are in SYM

calls the Chinese minister u creature
of the Dowager Empress and says that
he is currying favor with his mistress.
He says the minister is ont OF favor
with Chinese reforlners the world over
and he thinks the American govern
ment should take action in the matter
as Great Britain has done In Hong
Kong in the case Of LII Hung Chang's
alleged kidnapping Of Chinese reform

the matter and joint action will be
taken by reform societies all over the

FOR THE LITTLE ONES.
Be Careful In the Use Of Cough Medicines
For Chlldren's Coughs and Colds.

Many analysis of cheap cough mix
lures, and cough and throat lozenges
have clearly proven that a large pro-
portion Of them contain opiates.
The temporary relief which these
cheap medicines often give in coughs
and colds, especially with little chill
dren, is because the opiate, by destroy
ing nerve sensation, the irritation in
throat, which causes the cough, Is tenn
porarily removed, but the real cause
of the cold is not in any way removed
by the opiate and will promptly re-
turn.
The best thing to use to remove the
catarrhal secretion which causes the
cold, the hoarseness and Irritating
cough is a new preparation composed
of antiseptics like EucalyptoI, Guaia.

of the railroad company giving in as

many of the men were forced into the

CONfISCATING
Property Of Free staters Who Violate

London, April 27.--(spi.)--There is
no fresh news this morning In regard
TO the fighting at the front. The war
correspondents in reviewing the recent
operations point out that while they
were successful only In compelling the
Beers to evacuate their positions, Cen
eral Pole-Carew's march is bound to
have an excellent effect. Whenever
he found Free Staters who had brok-
en- their oaths Of allegiance he order
ed that their horses and cattle should
be seized. Recently the Free Staters
who profess friendship for Great Brit
ain have been hiding their Mausers
on distant kopjes instead Of burying
them on their farms.
The latest dispatches from Lorenzo
Marques say the number Of Beers now
in the field is estimated at 10000. OF
this number 1900 are at Kroonstad,
5000 in Natal and 700 at Mafeking.
Seven new French cannons have ar
rived at Pretoria. 1t is said that they
were secretly landed at Kosi Bay and

South Akron people who became
residents Of the city last Monday by
annexation, are going to ask the Board
of Education to build a school house
for the benefit of their district.
They fear that with the present over
crowded conaitions Of the Akron
schools the children of the district an
nexed to the city cannot be taken care
of at the regular ward schools.
There will be a contest in the new
district to determine upon which side
of the railway tracks the new build
ing shall be erected. The South Ak
ron crossings are very dangerous be-
cause of the high speed at which
trains are run and the Commissioners
will be asked TO notify the companies
to operate the trains at lower speed.
At the next meeting Of the Board of
Education delegation Of South Akron
citizens will be on hand to find out
where they are at with reference to
school facilities.
1t is the intention of the Coventry
directors to dismiss all teachers now
employed for that part Of South Ak
ron schools within the Akron district
and the scholars will be turned over
to the Akron board. A redistricting
Of the whole city by the Board may
be necessary.
South Akron people are also going
to demand police protection, lighting
and fire service, and improved streets.

Governor: Il would retire to private

Governor of New York any time than
vice president AS matter of fact,

is next to president"
Here is what the Governor said at
the Marquette club last night:
Nothing comes from the man who
asks reform as if it were some con-
crete substance like cake that could
be handed out.
"A perfectly good man is useless
to a community.
with virtue must go gameness, but
If man have both and is a natural

him.
ANY man who goes into politics to
be selfishly practical becomes sort of
civic wild beast. You must hunt him
Follow high ideals. keep your eyes
on the stars, but don't forget your
feet are on the earth"

voices yelled: "Our President in 1904.
