Boston is evidently away ahead of

Boston can learn of New Haven where
a street car conductor has been known
rather than have an unpleasant scene
in his well-ordered car.

This is the law about arbutus in Con-
necticut: Every person who shall will
fully pull up, tear up, dig up, or de-
stroy any trailing arbutus from the
land of another, or who shall sell, ex-
pose for sale, purchase, or have in his
possession, any arbutus with the roots
or underground stems attached, shall
be fined not more than 500; provided,
however, that any person may take
such arbutus on land owned or leased
by him, or with the permission Of the
owner or lessee.

James Preston, who has just return
ed from a visit to Porto Rico, tells the
Philadelphia Record There are about
fifty American schoolhouses in Porto
coin, the Penn, the Mckinley, the JEFF
ferson, the Irving, the Hamilton, and
SO on--and about thirteen hundred pu-
pills are attending them, One of the
principals pointed out to me young
girl of seventeen, very pretty, who
walked, he explained, twenty miles to
and from school daily, slept on bare
floor and begged nearly all her food,
she was so poor. This was one of his
best students. A boy had on shirt
SO much too big for him that his whole
person could have slipped easily
through the opening at the neck.
"whats the trouble with YOUR shirt,
my lad?" the principal asked. The
boy answered: This amt mine; it's
fathers, Mines in the wash" That
boy would have come naked rather
than have missed lesson. In q town
| visited there is night school. The
men who attend it bring their own
candles and sit on the schoolroom floor
in groups OF three, one candle to each
group. The intelligence of the Porto
Ricans, their teachers say, is as re-
markable as is their thirst after knowl-
edge No truant officers are needed
down there.

1t is asserted that the recent trials
at Toulon of the big new French
cruiser Jeanne dare were extremely
unsatisfactory and disappointing. The
vibrations of the hull were so great
that it was found impossible to use
the big guns with accuracy. The
naval authorities profess confidence
that the defect can be remedied but
in other quarters the matter is re-
garded less hopefully. 1t appears that
the Jeanne dare is the first of a new
class of vessels, in which considera-
BILE departure has been made from es-
tablished tradition. Hitherto the ex-
treme length of French war vessel
has been 1870 metres, whereas she is 145
metres in length. Her beam is 20 me-
tres, and her armor belt is compare

and his egolism so completely euveloped

through his brain after awhile that he had
beer as completely whipped as ever man
had been in debate and he essayed reply
admitting in part his ignorance, and then
bOlstering up his importance by relating
pretended conversation with some French
men. He got his head in the sand. but the
major part of his body was exposed and the
episode thus ended. He, of course, jus,i
fed his relations and employment with rail
roads. That was natural. However. after
reading the debate, the intelligent reader

For MIR. Wynne.

No bureau in the executive departments
carries with it more power than the bureau
of the First Assistant Postmaster General,
and to conduct the affairs Of that position;
not only needs a man of good executive
ability, but man also Of experience In
the first place he has more of the real work
of the great postal service than all the other
bureaus put together, and this is not said
to detract in the least from any of them,
for they all have an important part of the
work to perform.
In the 6rst place the person filling that
Office should be a man of the strictest in
tegrity, for a vast amount of money is ap-
propriated to carry on the business of the
bureau. The letting of the contracts for
supplies and seeing that such contracts are
honestly awarded and no favoritism shown
to pet contractors with political pulls should
be one of the FIRST things remedied. Then
again, he should have under him men
whom he could depend upon to see that
these supplies are distributed in just and
economical manner even the clerks who
keep the books should be held to
strict account that no loophole be left for
iobbery.
For the past few years this important
position seems to have dropped from the
high standard to which it should have been
kept, and become simply great seething
pot of dishonest political corruption And
is it any wonder when we see who has
managed its affairs, and the methods
adopted? Pet contractors have had full
sway, men put into responsible positions or
kept there whose only ability was to do the
dirty work of their bosses. Old reliable
clerks dismissed OF transferred for no other
reason than that they stood in the way of
some of the men getting through pet
schemes.
w are aware that such men as Machen,
Lewis, el al, will be around with their
political hackers. aud perhaps Heath, John.
son & Co., will tell the incoming First As.
sistant that he cannot dispense with them,
but Mr. Wyune will remember that the peo-
pie expect an honest administration, and
the only way it can be had is to clean out
the gangsters who are so we'll known in
ways that are dark. Never until the advent
of those people into the departments was
the gag applied and as evidence of this we
would simply refer to the testimony before
the Senate investigation and others that
have since been held

Why Mr.. johnson Resigned.

It is generally believed by those ac-
the resignation Of Hon. William NJ John
son, the First Assistant Postmaster General,
was the direct result of correspondence
with Senator Tillman on the subject of
rural letter boxes. That correspondence
appeared in the Congressional Record on
the 10th instant and our readers are re-
quested to obtain copy of the Record and
read it carefully. 1t proves our. contention
that the scheme of supplying the rural
service with letter boxes had its origin in
the Pos. Office Department and was an
outrageous swindle from start to finish.
Senator Tillman's amendment to the rural
appropriation bill came none to soon to stop
il. Here is an extract:
Mr. Tillman. send to the desk an amend
ment which | wish to have inserted on page
rs, between lines two and three as a
separate paragraph: That the Postmaster
General be- and he is hereby, directed to
buy, after due advertisement, metal lock
boxes Of uniform size for the use of the
patrons of the Rural Free Delivery service,
at cost not exceeding so cents for each
box, and to furnish said boxes to the patrons
Of the service at COST"
The amendment was unanimously agreed
to, after which Senator Tillmau requested
the privilege Of printing in the Record GER
tain documents and correspondence bearing
on rural boxes and the rural service
generally. The correspondence with Mr..
Maehen mot Johnson) IS quite spicy. We
have not the space to insert il in the GLOBE
and as the incident is closed and Mr.
Maehen defeated in his letter box freak, we
content ourselves with quoting only one Of
Senator Tillman's letters. Here it is:

Chauncer NLItchelI pepew.

The junior New York Senator, like the
late lamented Artemus Wards monkey, is
an "amooziu little cuss b" He has disported
himself twice lately in the Senate, and each
time made an exhibition that was neither
creditable TO him or his constituents.
The first time he flung himself into the de-
bate on the oleomargarine bill and made
play to the galleries and manifested dis
position to indulge in wit and humor His
wit, however was feeble, his humor fat and
his whole talk mixture of something that
very much resembled bufoouery. II was not
even good nonsense, and it did not once arise
to the dignity Of commonplace dullness. II
is true there was much vanity displayed; /;
antics and poses, glances around to catch
admiring gazes from the lookers.on, in fine,
a lot of empty AapdOOdle gotten up in
Chauncey NJ. Depew style, together with
theatrical Aourishes that we're intended to
be excrutiatingly funny.
There was fun, however, and he in his sim
plicity took it for granted that his auditors
we're laughing at his wit, when they we're
only laughing at his foolishness. His
after dinner speeches as a rule are fat, but
none Of them were ever more silly than his
effort to be witty in his defense Of the
American girl, or his panegyric on the COW.
However his going into the past and
digging up the bloody shirt has shown him
in very unenviable light Not only that
but he displayed a lamentable ignorance Of
the subject upon which he predicated his
Aamboyant harangue. He singled out
three states and made an attack upon their
laws aud constitutions, and with an iguo-
rance born of malice he waved aloft the
ensanguined garment, and when through
seated himself expecting to receive CON
gratulations for his exceedingly ill.umed
and lamentable performance, for the sequel
showed it was to HIM a most lamentable
performance.
When Senator Money, through the cour-
tesy Of Senator Teller-Penrose Of Penn
sylvania who then, as the hour had come
for consideration Of the Chinese bill, re.
fused to give him an opportunity to reply,
proceeded to puncture the windy assertions
of the New York Senator, 50 relentless were
his facts and 80 mastery was his argument
and so completely did he expose the utter
lack of knowledge on the part Of the
doughty railroad attorney that he betook
himself 10 the cloakroom and hid himself
from the gaze Of his associates. Il was
shown that he did not know what he was
