Cross Keys Mail Route.

Mr.. Editor: When this rural
mail system went into fleet, ] read
a great deal about the benefits, to be
derived from it, and maay thought
that the system was planned and car
ried out by our representatives III
congress. and that the dear people
wolud receive benefit from the
plan hitherto undrcamed of. They
gave us notice to fix boxes Oh the
star route on or by n certain date,
that the mail rider would be supplied
with stamps, and that he could not
ride the line unless he was quail
fed, that he should be abe to read
and calculate, as he would be re-
quired to furnish stamps, etc, for
the accommodation Of the people.
The boxes have been put up along
the line, the mail has been pat i'll
sid boxes, but we have not found one
of the riders who could furnish a
stamp either for cash or On credit.
Now the entire business is changed,
went into effect Monday Goth inst.
The Sedalia and Cross Keys routes
are thrown into one. and the mail
leaves your town for Cross Keys
thence to Sedalia and to Union from
that point, and we the citizens on
this star route, and old established
line, will now be forced to carry our
boxes up to Cross Keys and get our
mail put into them, or | think the
better plan would be to ship the
boxes to Washington and employ o
man near where the Wilburn post
office was established, and was dis,
continued to the great detriment of
large class of our citrzcns and pay
him to deliver the mail along this
line, that would be private delivery
instead of the pretensc now called
free delivery. While in Union last
week l interviewed the post master
in reference to this change. and he
seemed anxious to accommodate us.
and thought it would be better for
the mail to go to Sedalia in the
morning and the Cross Keys route
would receive the attention it hal
heretofore, but I find it comes here
or by here in the morning and
leaves all of u on this line out. We
are not putting the blame on any one
man, but we are certainly in bad
fix, unless we can hire good boy to
ride for us. II. Ii. GORE.

DEAR Mr.. EDITOR: Having now
seven churches to serve and sick
wife to nurse, | have little time to
send you the news, when it is cur
rent.
Mrs. Isom's health does not i'm
prove fast. She has been able, how
ever TO take some recreation, visiting
with me among my people about
Cherokee and surrounding country.
My work at all points is imp, ov-
ing in spirituality. We have begun
our Children's Day services which
promise great things for the sunday
schools. Wish | could be with YOU
at Grace Church and all Of the
others in your county.

Mr.. j. B, Cleveland certainly has

and the churches are second To nom.

AS it was III Union, in few in

are required to give an account.
Several have already called at the
parsonage for advice. Mr.. Editor,
if 'he trustees of the church properly
would ACT as fearless in such ma,ters
as did some On the Kelton circuit
while / was their pastor. They
would help to stamp out the "blind
tigers" and change the dispensary
into a child Of the king. 1t is use
less for the christians of South Caro-
lima to rush to the ballot box anG
cry, away with the d'spcnsary aud
give us prohibition, and then cellar
themselves afser they have ia led to
be lulled to sleep for another term.
Let prohibition leaders o,ll on the
churches for daily support Fetch
violators before church affairs in sac
,ifice and confession, and let the
chu, ch pray for the conversion.
Well, Mr.. Editor, thought VIII n

where my pen has rnmbled 10, go !

MI. Boutelle was siXty-two years old and on
his retirement from Congress last winter was

ness dates from December IL 1899 when he

THE TROUBLE AT THE ACADEMY.
AN OFFICIAL STATEMENT FROM THE WAT
DEPARTMENT.

CFsy The Associated Press)
Washington May 21.-An official statement of
the situation at the Military Academy was made
at the War Department to-day. 1t was said
that the cadets had been guilty Of acts which
would not be serious in any other college OF
school but in view of the fact that these young
men were educated by the government at gov
ernment institution to learn obedience and how
to command men and themselves, II was neces-
sary for them to he under somewhat more rigid
discipline The trouble grew out of attempts TO
suppress hazing. Although promises to suppress
bazine have been made, "bracing' still has been
carried on against the orders of the officials.
Class officers have failed to report cases OF
'bracing." There also is the case OF Cadet
Ralston. who was reduced for not reporting
misbehavior at the mess table. These class Of
ticers were reduced, and some minor punish
ment was inflicted.
The mutiny INSTRUMENTATION grew out Of
the resentment of the second class men, who
have been at the academy three years. at these
punishments inflicted by the academy officials.
1t took the form of such offences toward the
superintendent as training the gun on his quar-
ters and other acts which the academy of1cers
could not ignore This resulted in the trials
and sentences to dismissal approved py the
Secretary of War to-day.
There are two other court martial cases from
the academy pending In the department. where
cadets have been sentenced to dismissal. There
is a rule at the academy that cadet invited
out to dinner be excused and leave the post.
Two cadets invited each other to dinner. and
made this their excuse for absence, bur their
ruse was discovered.
There are a large number of other cadets on
whom minor punshments. such extra duty,
confinement to quarters deprivation of holidays
and reduction of class rank will be inflicted
1t is understood that Douglas Macarthur. son
Of Major General Macarthur. commanding in
the Philippines. will escape with a minor pun
ishment.

not by a woman's. She positive that the
