NEW POSTAL LAWS.

The latest rulings from the postof-
fee department regarding second
class matter will meet with the APP
proval of every honest newspaper
and magazine publisher and will rid
the mails of the burden of freight
matter which has for years been i'm
posed upon the service.
The ruling in substance disbars
from second-class mail all publica-
tions which do not circulate of their
own literary merit, all schemes of
offering premiums and paper back
novels. The department also rules
against the return of unsold copies
of publications sent to news agents
which will prevent q further misuse
of the mails in that direction
The result will be gratifying to
legitimate book publishers who have
been compelled to pay cents q
pound for their publications while
the makers of paper back books were

j. A. Kelly relates an experience
similar to that which has happened in
almost every neighborhood in the
United States and has been told and
retold by thousands of others. He
says: Last summer 1 had an attack
Of dysentery and purchased a bottle
of Chamberlain Collie. Cholera and
Diarrhoea Remedy. which l used &C
cordiDg to directions and with en-
tirely satisfactory results. The trou-
bic was controlled much quicker than
former attacks when / used other
remedies. Mr.. Kelly is a well known

A WISE IDEA.

Gov. OdelI. of New York, is making
a tour with the object of personally
visiting and inspecting the charitable
institutions of that state and directly
acquainting himself with their needs.
The Empire state has about $40, 000.-
600 invested in ~ insane hospitals,
IL charitable and reformatory insti-
tutions and II normal schools. The
governor travels in a special train,
paid for by himself, and gives no
warning of his coming. He desires
to see things IN the raw rather than
in the cooked condition, so that he
may have thorough knowledge and a
basis of suitable action when apPro-
priations shall be made. There is q
good suggestion here for governors
of other states.

SCHOOL BOARD LET'S
CONTRACT FOR HEATING

At a special meeting of the board OF
education last evening the bids for the
heating plant of the new high school,
advertised for and opened by the old
board at its last meeting, were con-
sidered.
There were three propositions
made, according to the specifications
prescribed, by Allen, Myers Il Co.,
Chsnnon, Perry & Co., and Blake 4
Murphy. The figures quoted were
respectively 50, 1853. 50. 995 and $780,
800. The first named firm being the
lowest bidder was awarded the con-
tract. The system installed will in
clude the Sturtevant engine, fans and
coils and the johnson temperature
regulator.
1t having been brought to the at
tention of the board that the city or.
dinances are being violated by the
janitors of the different schools in re-
gard to sprinkling school lawns out
side of the hours prescribed, it was
voted to instruct the superintendent
to see that the ordinance is observed.
The clerk was instructed to adver-
tise for bids for coal for the ensuing
year, the same to be opened next
Monday evening, when another special
meeting will be held. The board will
meet Friday and make the annual
tour OF inspection of the different
buildings with view of ascertaining
what repairs are necessary before the
fall term opens.
President Marshall announced com
mittees for the year as follows:
Finance and Auditing-Hull and
Denkmann.
Insurance. Janitors, Fuel and Heat
ing-Seidel and Hull.
Supplies-Stewart and Seidel.
Building and Improvements-Ste

Lake Superior the steel head salmon

this saltwater fish would thrive in

five pounds haverecently been caught.
As modified in the lake they are well
