Easd Cllnrs to Old District.

Thomas B. Reed, eX-speaker of the
house, lives in New York, but he still
claims to be constituent of Congress
man Amos Allen, who succeeded Mr.
Reed as the representative of the first
congressional district of Maine. When
he wants any documents or publica-
lions Mr.. Reed always applies to Mr.
Allen for them. Mr.. Reeds wishes in
this line are often extensive, but Mr.
Allen always attends to them person
ally. He secures the books from the
document room, wraps and addresses
them with his own hands and then car
ries them down to the house postofIice
and sees them safely started on their
way to New York. Mr.. Allen for long
time was clerk of Mr.. Reeds committee
on rules and he was nominated for con-
gress largely through the efforts Of the
former speaker.

Employees Are Docked for Minutes
Loss Of Time.
"It's an old story that the United
States treasurer occasionally pays war
rants for the sum of one cent to credit
ors of the government" said an old
department clerk the other day, but
it's so we'll known, but equally true,
nevertheless, that government clerks
are sometimes locked one cent for
overstaying their annual leave
minute or fraction thereof In the
treasury department In particular the
rule is infiexible that clerk who ex-
ceeds the regulation leave even for
minute in a year shall forfeit pro-
portionate amount of his pay.
1.-THE taxation Of delinquents re-
quires eternal vigilance and careful
calculation, but 1t is regarded as es-
sential to the best interests OF the SER
vice. No fractions Of minute are
considered and there is no penalty less
than a cent. The salary per minute is
determined by dividing the annual sal
airy by all the working days, which ex-
clude Sundays and holidays, and al
lowing seven hours for each day. oh
that basis it is computed that the sal
aries Of government clerks average
about a cent a minute. OF course
some are more and others less, put
that covers the most Of them.
1T does not seem much to deduct
ten cents from the $1,000 salary or
clerk who has exceeded his sixty days
leave by ten minutes. but he invari-
ably treats such action as great out
rage on his rights as an American
citizen. The other day woman IN

young women-business girls, appa-

morning and took seats. After they
were comfortably adjusted, with par
cells and umbrellas, the one in the blue

sat opposite, and remarked to her COM
panion:
Its too near the stove here; let's
move down."
Then the girls arose, and took seats
farther down, out of range of the two
men.

n n OST people think catarrh is a
V disease confined to the head and
AVA nose. Nothing is farther from
the truth. 1t may be that the nose and
throat is the oftenest affected by ca
tarrh, but if this is so it is so only because
these parts are more exposed to the
vicissitudes of the climate than the
other parts of the body.
Every organ, every duct, every cavity
of the human body is liable to catarrh.
A multitude of ailments depend on ca
tarrh This is true winter and summer.
Catarrh causes many cases of chronic
disease, where the victim has not the
slightest suspicion that catarrh has any
thing to do with it.

According to these figures 10 per
cent of the whole falls to Germany
During the six months ended Dec
81, 1901, there were built in the United
States and officially numbered by the
bureau of navigation III rugged YES
sells of 154,073 gross tons, compared
with 56S rugged vessels Of 1929 gross
tons for the corresponding six months
of 1900. Canal boats and unrigged
barges are not included.
The principal decline, 1882 tons, is
on the Atlantic seaboard, and Is at
tributable to work on several large
ocean steamers, which will be COM
pleted during the coming six months.
Included in the six months figures
are thirty-eight vessels, each over
1000 tons and aggregating 103,S32 tons.
OF these fourteen steel steamers, ag.
gregating $3.50 tons, were built on
the great lakes. Four are for the sea-
board, two banana steamers, Watson
and Buckman, each of 1920 tons; the
Hugoma, 2,1S2 tons, and the Mime
tonka, 5,270 tons. The Minnetonka
will be cut in two to pass the canals.
On the seaboard fifteen wooden
schooners of 24,S64 tons were built,
says the Washington Star, five steel
steamers for the coasting trade and
one steel ferryboat, aggregating 2O,964
tons. Square rugged vessels are the
steel ship William P. Frey, 1874 tons,
and two barkentines on the Pacific, ag-
gregating 2,310 tons.

"Hawail" the OmcIaI T.rm.

The United States postoffice depart
ment recognizes only the terr. "Ha-
wall" as being the official designation
for the Hawaiian islands Territory
OF Hawaii" "T. H." or "Haw." have
no place in the official authorizations
for the new territory
When the islands became territory
of the United States considerable
peculation was had as D how letter
writer's abroad should address their
friends here. and many believed that
1T. II" would about hit the mark.
Chief Clerk Kenake states that when
ordering stationery from Washington.
he made out the forms intending to
use the letters "T. H." but the sta
tionery came back with the word
Hawaii printed thereon Rubber
stamps also came to his Office with
this word. and thus it has become rec
ognized in the business and official
circles on the mainland to write the
word Hawaii in full on envelopes
for the islands. The word Hawaii"
does no mean the island of Hawaii in
this sense. Letters addressed to Hilo,
Hawaii or Mahukona. Hawaii, do not
specifically designate the island of
Hawaii but comes into the postoffice
under the same terms as letters ad-
dressed to Honolulu Hawaii There
were formerly two Waimeas. one on
Hawaii and one on Kauai The Wal
mca on the island of Hawaii has been
changed TO Kamuela, and the only
Waimea now in existence. SO far as
the postoffice is concerned. is that on

apparatus consists of rotary barrel.
hari Ing a continuous groove running
around its face from end to end. This
barrel is inclosed in a cylinder. having
slots in the under side in line with the
rings formed by the groove on the
face of the roller, the length of the
slots varying to correspond with the
various coins from the dime to the
collar To put the machine in opera
tion the miscellaneous coins are poured
into the open top of the inclosing case
and fed into the hopper at one end.
As the coins fall downward the crank
is turned to revolve the barrel. the
coins working their way gradually
along the groove, which feeds them to-
wards the opposite end of the barrel.
As soon as each coin reaches the slot
