AGAINST RURAL DELIVERY.
Opposition tn the Wngon Nail Sys-
tenn in Maryland.

WESTMINSTER, Nd, Jan. S.-The free
rural mail delivery service inaUgurated in
Carroll county. December 20 1928. with
ramifcations over the entire county. Is
now in fun swing -Four Government post
office wagons make daily trips, except Sun
day, with Westminster as the starting and
ending point. Twenty-six cross-cOuntry
carriers meet the wagons at designated
points.
The system is meeting with great oppo-
sition. The objections to il are not conhn-
ed TO any particular locality, but protests
are heard from every section. The people
have been accustomed to go TO the little
country postofIices to gossip and trade. and
this is broken UP. Then the postmasters
who have been displaced do not like the
change because it diminishes their import
ance Their influence is decidedly against
the system. and il counts for a good deal

ti0n is bitter

destroyed by unknown parties and the Gov

dealt with il they are caught. The friends
OF the new system say that the opposition
is fomcnted by disgruntled pOstmasters Of
the fourrh-class offices. which have been all
abolished. Most Of these postmasters con-
duct country stores, and indirectly the
pCstOfiiCe brings them trade.

A NOVELTY IN BOYCoTTS.
The Chicago Art Association's Effort
to Remove BiIIboards

CHICAGO. Jan. S.=The Chicago Art AS
sociation has decided that the first step
toward beautifying the city after the puri-
fieation of the river must be the abolition
of the boards which now line the tou'e-
wards. and otherwise obtrude themselves
to the great modification of the ar i tic
sense of the average Chicagoan.
An attempt was made several months ago
to abolish the nuisance by legislation
through the common council. but the Big
billboard concerns combined to prevent
the passage of the ordnance.
They showed they had s65O.00O invested
in the boards. which would be lost If the
ordinance passed and was sustained by the
courts. With the aid Of ''Bathhouse John"
who had Just returned from the East. they
convinced the alderman that the boards
were not the monstrosities the Art Asso-
citation dubbed them, and the ordinance was
killed.
1t Is now intended to enlist the aid of
every housewife to do by persuasion what
could not be done by law. commi tee
headed by Ralph Clarkson has been ap-
pointed to make a house-to- house canvass
for pledges not to use any articles or at
tend any place of amusement advertised on
biIlboards. They will begin the canvass
today, and are confident of success

SECURED MANY SPECIMENS.
The Alaskan Expedition for Birds
and Mammals Success.

NEW HAVEN, Conn, Jan. S.-Dr. L. B
Bishop of this city is preparing report
for Secretary Wilson of the Agricultural
Department at Washington on his trip 10
Alaska, and from which he recently return
ed The trip was made to secure informa-
tion concerning Alaska for use by the Ag-
ricultural Department. The expedition,
which is known as the Biographical Survey
was composed of w. II. osgood, Washing
ton: H. f. Maddern, Leland Stanford Uni
versity, California. and DR.. Bishop. They
were out six months ago.
Dr. Bishop, in speaking of the work of
the expedition. said that the work was sue
cessful. The object was to find out some
thing concerning the birds and mammals in
habiting Alaska. and. In addition to find
ing hundreds of specimens which were
brought home. important discoveries were
made in the line of mammals
DR.. Bishop has brought home to this city
600 hundred specimens of the feathered
family. and is preparing to send them to
Washington. The expedition went to Skag-
way, and, from Lake Bennett. made a trip
through the lakes and upon the yukon
River, in canoes. of 500 miles. The taxi
dermy was done in boats as fast as the
specimens were obtained. The members OF
the expedition regard the results of thrr
trip of great scientific importance.

A PECULIAR MONOPOLY.
4 MaSnatc Who Carries His Product
in Two Tin Pals.

WORCESTER. Mass, Jan. S-A grey
haired old man making his way through
the streets of Worcester. carrying an extra
large tin pail in each hand. has reused the
curiosity of many who have met him.
He is Moses d. GARFIELD, of the nearby
town Of Mlllbury and is at the head of the
queerest trust in the world. He controls
the shuttle eye" manufacturing business
OF the United States. He is not a believer
in trusts and has not obtained the control
of the American market in porcelain shut
tie eyes by wiping out competitors. The
business is in his grasp simply on account
of the excellence of the product which be
turns out, and its great superiority over
the foreign make. which he has practically
driven out of the American market.
His novel business is carried on at
fainter Hill, which is an out the way
sort of place in the town of Millbury.
There he molds from English and New
Jersey clay the shuttle eyes" which are
used all over the country in cotton, wooden.
and silk mills When they are hardened
sufficiently to stand transportation they are
loaded into the pals already referred to.
and Mr. Garfield boards an electric car for
Worcester He takes the eyes to the city
for their first baking, and when this is ac-
Complished at the end of about sixty hours
he calls for them with the same old pals
and returns with them to his place of
business, where he has an oven of his own
and there puts on the finishing touches
giving the clay perfect glaze and the uni
formity of size which is so much desired
The impression has gone out that Mr.
Garfield has a secret process by which he
is able to secure better results than others
who are engaged in the business in other
lands, but this. he says, is not SO. his sue
cess being due solely to his great
painstaking. He found by practical expe-
rience as a shuttlemaker that the chief
trouble with the foreign makes of shuttle
eyes was their lack of uniformity. They
had to be carefully sorted before they could
be used and even then many shuttle
blocks were damaged by the process of
driving the eyes into the wood. Mr. Gar
field thought he could do better. and he set
about it.

CLOTHING TO SHED WATER
Tests Being Made by the Marine
Corps QuartermRster

Some interesting tests are in progress
at the Marine Corps headquarters. Tests
are still being conducted of waterproof
material for the manufacture of QUITE:
clothing for marines by the quartermaster.
II is the opinion of officers who have
seen service in the Philippines that khaki
coats submitted by the manufacturers of
khaki material for the army will not be
sufficient to Withstand the driving rain
of the tropics. These officers are OF the
opinion that the best material for th;1
purpose is goods of the character of Jan
anese oil silk, which have the advantage
Of being cool and light.
Recommendations will be made to the
Commandant of the Marine Corps to have
supplied to marines outftted with khaki
uniforms equipments of like color. The
advantage of equipping the troops with
cartridge belts, canteens. knapsacks. and
haversacks of khaki color is obvious The
color Of the grey shirts will be not chang
ed to correspond with the khaki uniform.

HARvARD's OLD BELL SILENT.
Summons To Evening Service Given
bS n New One.

CAMBRIDGE, Mass, Jan S.-For the
drSt time il sixty-three years the ousto-
mary summons to Harvard evening chapel
services failed 10 sound last night. for in
its place came the clang of the new Har-
ward bell 1t was with regret that many
heard this clear-toned bell, as it seemed to
them more in the nature of an intruder
than a friend.
The putting up of the new bell in place
Of the old one has occupied much longer
time than expected "Old Jones'" the man
who has rung the bell for forty-two years,
was on hand and performed his duty IS he
has done during all these years.
The new bell was cast in Troy, weighs
five hundred and fifty pounds, and is two
inches larger in diameter than the old one
which weighed four hundred and fifty
pounds. The old bell was recast in 1886
Prof Charles Eliot Nortcn. president of
the Har.ard Memorial Society. wants the
old bell 10 be given to the society. which
will probably be done 1t is said that the
old bell was brought from an Italian con-
vent and Mr.. Jones has a pocket piece
which he carries with him made from il
and or which l. inscribed a brief account
of its history.

LANADA's MARRIAGE LAWS.
An Effort to Restrict the Union OF
Divorced Persons.

VICTORIA, B. c.. Jan. S.-As a result of
several months consideration of the Sub
ject the Ministerial Association of British
Columbia has challenged the legitimacy of
the marriage in Canada of American di-
vorced persons where DEGREES of separation
have been granted on other grounds than
adultery. which alone is recognized under
the Dominion statutes
Heretofore issuers Of marriage licenses
have maintained that they cannot go beyond
the decree ITSELF The, association Is now
asking the government to legislate in the
marriage act so that licenses may only be
issued on establishment of the cause of
divorce being sufficient under Canadian
laws.
1t is also sought to prohibit the marriage
of blood relatives. Bishop Perrin and Rev
w. Leslie Clay.,c the dspokesmen for the
clerical organizationU hold that. while
25 per cent Of the marriages solemnized
here are those of divorced persons. those
whose separations are based on grounds
other than adultery are now bigamously
married and liable to prosecution.

A BIG PROJECT ABANDONED.
The Thread Trust VIII Not Build =
Mill at Fall River, Mass

FALL RIVER. Mass, Jan. S.-The erec-
tion of s., 100000 thread mill by the Kerr
Company. in this city. has been abandoned.
the Kerr Company is now a part, has de-
cided to increase the plant at Willamantic,
Conn.,, by $4,000 spindles. The reasons as
signed for the abandonment of the prof.
ect are that the inducements offered here
are practically nothing so far as the city
is concerned. and the cost of labor is very
high and trades unions dominate the situa-
tion as TO wages.
The city is not disposed to build roads
to Ale mill property, which is quite dis
tance from the main roads.

to be no doubt but what it Will go to
