From the New Orleans Times Democrat
II used to think that the letter carrier
was one public official who had no per-
quisites attached to his job" said a New
Orleans lawyer, land l sympathized with
him accordingly. But recently" he con-
tinued. II discovered that was in error
One day, a few weeks ago, the carrier

batch Of mail, and, as he was going out.
asked whether / knew any such man as
John Soandso-pve forgotten the name he
Misunderstanding on the block. L don't
recall such a person. l replied; have you
a letter for him?' No. sir said the car
rier, L was just trying to locate him for
a real estate agent up town. If l find
the right address 1 get a $40 BILL That
excited my curiosity. and in response TO
my questions the carrier made the matter
plain.
Its like this he said. The real es-
tate agent is settling up some estate and
has lost track of one of the heirs. He
thinks he's in town. but he doesn't know
where to look for him, so he came to the
delivery department of the postoftice as
the best place to get tip. IL turned out
that none of the boys had such a man on
their routes, and he then asked us to
make inquiries and hung up this $40 re-
ward for the fret information. 1t is per-
fectly legitimate, and there's nothing
about it that interferes with our work, so
everybody's trying to nail the twenty for
a Christmas present.
1.-THE story interested me, and l asked
him whether they were called on often
for data of that character. Why, yes,
he replied, pretty frequently. AS far as
addresses arc concerned, the carrier de-
partment is far and away the best infor-
maticn bureau in town. You see, we
not only keep track of the residents but
we are pretty well-posted as to the tran
sients also. Anybody who remains here
for a week or longer is toleraby certain
to receive mail of some kind and the
majority of it goes to a particular street
and number, instead of the general delv-
cry. That gives us line on them which
couldn't be obtained through any other
channel. Then, again, the people who
live here are continually moving and may
have changed their address two or three
times since the last issue of the directory
We keep track of all that, and even when
they go out of town temporarily we are
likely to know where they are, in order
to forward stray mail.
Taken altogether, we are quite apt 10
locate anybody desired, and when we
make special inquiries, as 1 am doing in
this case, 1t Is next door to a sure thing
I asked him what class of people applied
to tho carriers as a rule. Lawyers prin-
cipally,' he said, who are working up evil
dence in different cases and want to find

STATISTICS FROM DUBLIN.
Number of Arrests for a Year-Earn-
ings of Two Railroads.


Dublin, Ga. Jan. 5.-The report of Chief
of Police ]. A. Peacock for the year end
ing Dec 81, 1900 shows that there were
during last year 374 persons arrested in
Dublin by the police officers, as follows:
White males, 11S; white females, none;
colored males, 2O4 colored females, 81.
The amount of fines imposed by the May
or was $1,5SO.S4.
Last night three prisoners priced open
the back door of the city barracks and
escaped. One prisoner refused to leave.
All were negroes.
The net earnings of the Wrightsville
and Tennille, and Macon. Dublin and Sa-
vannah Railroads for the fiscal year end
ing July 30 last but which has just been
made public, is most gratifying to the
stockholders of these two lines. The
Wrightsville and Tennillee Road. which
is. capitalized at $4,000, cleared $55, SCI o.
or nearly 20 per cent, against a net earn
ing of 39,665.51 for the year previous.
This large increase is due mainly to the
efficiency of General Freight Agent f. X.
Bryan, Jr. The net earnings of the Ma
con, Dublin and Savannah Road for the
same period we're $25 294.09, an increase of
$14, S6465 over the preceding year. Prior
to 1899 the Macon, Dublin and Savannah
Road used all of the earnings for better
ments and the result is that there is not
a better piece of railroad property in the
state.
The increase in receipts at the Dublin
postoffice amount to 81 215.12 over 1892 the
figures for 1900 being SIS, 47210 against
81, 256.9S in 1899. If the receipts for 1901
continue in the same ratio of increase
the Dublin postoffice will be moved up by
the Postoffice Department from the third
to che second class.

THAT JACKSONVILLE GAME.
Member of the Team Writes to Put
Some of the Players Right.


Upon the return home of the Jackson
Vile football team which played here on
New Years day. their captain, named
Bryan, turned himself loose to a sympa-
thetic newspaper man, and had printed
a lot of stuff about the Savannah team,
having 1T in .or jacksonville" because of
some trouble that took place in Jackson
Vile some five years ago. The closing
ragraph, however, is the gem of the
lot. The speaker is quoted as saying:
AS it was getting dark, and almost
all spectators were armed with shilla-
labs and umbrellas, and apparently
backed by numbers of the police force
and our hackman was getting impa-
tient to carry us to supper we retired,
giving three rather choking cheers for Sa-
vannah."
TO any one who was present at the
game the falsity of this statement is at
once apparent. There were umbrellas on
the field, it is true, but they were taken
there on account of the rain that had
been coming down all the morning, and
up to. within a short time before the
game commenced but not shillalah, nor
any other sort of thing that could, even
remotely be construed into a weapon,
was to be SEEN
Fortunately for the future relations OF
the two teams this view of Mr. Bryan
is not taken by ell the other men of the
team, as an unsolicited letter yesterday
to Manager NJ. H. Neuberger will show.
The letter was written Under date of Jan.
4, and is as follows:

Vannah, Ga.-Dear Sir: Very sorry l left
