Military Mourning.
Boston Transcript.

There is a wide diversity I'm the regula-
tions for military mourning in this country.
In the regular army the period Il one
month. whereas in our militia officers must
wear the usual mourning emblems and the
cOlOrs must be draped for three months.
Maine goes even further than Massachu-
sets. Officers of the Maine militia will
wear a mourning band on their left arms
for six months, together with black crepe
on their sword hilts. while regimental col
Ors will be draped for the same period.
Thus long after the army has removed its
crepe the militia will continue TO wear
mourning for President Mckinley. though
a State rather than a national force.

OPPORTUNITY TO DO
GOOD ALL AROUND
Postmaster Greene Can Serve
the People of the City Better
and Quicker if the People viii
Provide Letter Boxes

Postmaster ]. Evarts Greene believes
and he has evidence to prove it, that
if every tenant in the city had a let
ter box at the entrance to his residence
the delivery facilities of the Worcester
office would be vastly increased.
There is no requirement of the postal
department making it necessary Tor
persons to place boxes, but Mr.. Greene
makes the suggestion with the thought
in mind of improving the service. Con-
siderable delay results from carriers
being obliged to wait for individuals
to get to the door to receive mail,
whereas if there were a box at every
house or tenement considerable time
would be saved
Superintendent of Mails, j. W. May
nard accompanied a carrier over ms
route yesterday morning and as re-
suit a new order has been given at
the post office instructing carriers that
they are not to wait at any house more
than one minute.
Monday, Mr.. Greene and his assls-
tants summarized the work of half a
dozen carriers. They found that the
smallest number of calls made by any
of the six was 252 and the largest num-
Der 500. Carriers work eight hours a
day and are supposed to make three
trips over their routes. They are al
lowed one hour and a half in the office
to fix up their routes which means
that they have six and one half hours
or 800 minutes for their work outside
the office. Considerable time is of
course, taken up in getting to and from
the routes and in walking between
points where deliveries are to be made.
Mr.. MaynaFd's observation yesterday
morning showed the minimum time
taken up by a carrier from the time
he entered the grounds of a house to
the time he came out, when there was
a box, as 10 seconds. At places where
there were no boxes the time varied
from 80 to 40 seconds. When person
has over 500 calls to make the differ
ence in time can be readily appreciated.
