A CRUISE FOR GENERAL WOOD.
His Shattered Health to he Built Up
by IA RestfuI Sea Trip.

The steamer Kanawha, which has been
for some time in the customs service Of
Cuba, has been placed at the disposal of
General Wood for a cruise in Northern
waters along the New England coast as
soon as he is able to leave Havana. The
vessel is a handsome one and first class
in every respect. She is maintained out
of the insular fund of Cuba. The vessel
is just now in need of some slight re-
pairs and these will be made in New York
and paid for out of the same fund.
The Kanawha will remain in New York
until General Wood arrives there. He is
reported to be steadily improving. and it
is expected that he will shortly have
recovered sufficiently f.om his attack of
typhoid fever to be able to leave Havana.
He will spend several weeks in the
North recuperating. and some officer now
in Cuba will be designated to perform his
duties as Governor during his absence.

REFORM In MAIL SERVICE.
Penny Postage Believed Possible
Through a New Order.
Second Class Privileges Restricted
By Postmaster General TO Limit
Originally Contemplated by Law
Radical Change Commended.

Postmaster General Smith yesterday
signed three orders amending In important
particulars three postal regulations affect
ing second class mail matter The
changes will effect sweeping and radical
reforms in the department practices and
methods of treating this class of matter.
The first order amends section 216,
which is the general definition. so as to
exclude from the second class publications
which have the characteristics of books,
the amendment being in these words:
Periodical publications herein referred
TO are held not to include those having
the characteristics of books, but only such
as consist of current news or miscellan-
eous literary matter, or both mot exclud-
ing advertising), and conform to the stat
utory characteristics of second class mat
ter"
The second order amends section 2Sl in
several particulars the principal one be-
ing that publications, the subscriptions
to which are not founded on their value
news or literary journals, and which
by the general use of premium or other
considerations in the form of chances to
win prizes. etc, to induce subscriptions,
in effect circulate at apparently nominal
rate, will be excluded from the second
class. The essential paragraph is as fol-
lows:
The subscription price must be shown
by the publication, and when it appears
from the contents or from the extrinsic
inducements offered in combination with
it, that the circulation of the publication
is not founded on its value as a news or
literary journal. and that subscriptions
are not made because of such value, but
because its offers of merchandise or other
consideration result, in effect. in its cir
culation at apparently nominal rate,
such publication does not come within
the requirements of the law for accep-
tance as second class matter"
The third order amends section 30l so
that unsold copies of second class publi-
cations may not be returned at the pound
rate to news agents or to publishers.
The action of Postmaster General Smith
is regarded as highly important. 1t is
evidence of the purpose of the department
to administer the law as it is, strictly
and properly. and that abuses wherever
found will be eradicated. Loose and in
different Interpretation heretofore is re
sponsible for the loss of many millions
of dollars to the Government. 1t is be-
lieved that when the effect of the changes
is thoroughly established, many postal
improvements will follow. and one-cent
letter postage will be made possible.

ITALY SEEKS REDRESS.
Her Charge d'AFaires Enters Claims
for Two Lynchings

The United States Government and the
Government Of Italy have again become
involved in an Incident somewhat ap-
preaching the lynching of the Mafia as
sassins at New Orleans during President
Harrisons Administration. which re-
suited in the withdrawal of Baron Fava.
the Italian Minister. from Washington.
The Italian Charge d'Anaires. in be-
half of his Government, filed yesterday
with the State Department a formal pro-
test against the lynching of two Italians
and the serious wounding OF another by
mob at Erwin. Miss, recently, and
asked for redress. The State Department
has communicated with the Governor of
Mississippi on the subject. asking him to
report the facts and take measures to
punish the lynchers.
Ii is apparent from the note of the
Italian Government that 1t is very much
In earnest, and desires satisfactory re-
dress.

Rodgers being leading young attor-

According to the San Francisco press,

mind to come to Honolulu for Christ
mas whether their complete fares are

vary on the Coast as to whether they
are to play Oahu College or a mixed
team. No active preparations have been
made here so far and it is high time
that any team that contemplates play
ing against The big fellows commences
practicing together. Even now there is
no time left for effective team work
to be satisfactorily accomplished and
Honolulu is likely to make but a sorry
showing If the Olympics arrive.
Hawaii is now under the jurisdiction
of the Pacific Athletic Association, con-
trolling all the territory west of the
Colorado. Captain James of the Olym-
pics will, it is said, come to Honolulu
and make some arrangement with local
