NEW POSTAL CURRENCY.
The Post Check Notes, "A Safe and Con-
venient Method of Sending
Money by Mail.

a measure intended ''tO prevent rob
bling the mail, to provide safer and
easier method OF sending money by
mail, and to increase the postal rev.
enues' is pending in congress and
should receive consideration. Its pas
sage would not entirely prevent mail
robbery, but it would reduce the num-
Der of such crimes by reducing the
profits accruing from their successful
preparation. 1t would certainly pro-
vide safer and more convenient meth
cd of sending money by mail, and I'M
uuestiOnably would increase the in
come of the post Office department.
To adapt these post check notes to
their purpose it is provided that the
words payable to bearer on demand"
which appear in the notes for which
these are to be substituted, shall be
eliminated, and in place thereof shall
appear the words: Payable to the
payee named hereOn; payable to
bearer if the spaces are not filed"
Every device to insure absolute safety
appears to have been incorporated in
this bill. The fact that more than half
of all the post offices in the United
States are not money order Offices is
sufficient reason for providing this
species of currency, INSTANTLY trans
ferrabIe into safe money to send
through the mails" 1t viii answer
every purpose of money in ordinary
business, and viii be changeable into
a personal check on the United States
government by the simple process of
writing a name. The saving that the
government would effect by substitute
ing these notes for money orders
would, it IS estimated, be about $780,
600 a year. As an accommodation to
millions Of persons, the scheme COM
mends itself to general appreciation.
Possibly the pending bill may re-
qJIire some amending, but the Pur-
pose is good, and the carrying of it
out would greatly enhance the utility
of the mails, while reducing expenses
and increasing net revenues.-Wash-
ingtOn Cd. c. Post.
Newspaper publishers, business men
and farmers realize the benefit from
having money in the hands of the peo-
pie that could be instantly made into
a money order without the delay and
expense Of a journey to the post Office.
Ladies would appreciate its cOnve-
nience. Even with free rural deIiv-
cry the farmer has no convenient and
safe way to get the money for his
daily paper to the publisher. Every
one interested should write senators
and representatives requesting that
the post check currency be furnished
the people.

No fewer than 81 per cent. Of Ger

Rt- Rev. William Paret, bishop Of

England, then studied under a tutor
in France, graduated at Harvard and
afterward spent two years on post

there are proportiOnately more col

The playing Of billiards by students

was by resolution of the faculty and

Ords showed that so per cent. of the
failures in class work were by students

CHARMS OF CAMP LIFE.
Life and the Enjoyment OF
Natures Provisions.

The forester has opportunities to
see and to know the wild life Of the
forest better than most men, says
Paul Griswold Huston IN Atlantic
He hears the whistle of the quail
and the drumming of the partridge,
and frequently he finds their nests
and sees their broOds of young; he
learns the ways of the wild duck,
stumbles upon the curious nests of
the ovenbird, and becomes acquaint-
ed with many rare, shy birds; he has
the best of chances to observe the
squirrels and deer, the two most
graceful animals in the woods, IN
their native homes amid the trees,
and he comes across saPlings against
which deer have scraPed their horns
when in the velvet, follows their
trails 20 his work, surveys through
their feeding grounds where they
have brOwsed the tips of cedar, hem
lock, ash and Eastwood, picks up
their cast-off antlers lying among
the leaves, and finds their beds Of
matted grass and ferns where they
have lain. And then, too. few things
are quite so Palatable as game
cooked to a crisp over a wood fire
in the open air. and nothing tastes
so good as pure, fresh, cold water
drunk straight from a brook, with

glass These also are the fOrester's
advantages He may fry some brook

but a taste of game Is not at all I'M

most a necessary part Of an outfit.

An unusual sight was witnessed at a

being drawn TO the ehurchyard IN a
four-wheeled farm wagon painted
red and blue, and attached TO which
were a couple Of farm horses The
funeral was that Of Richard BrettelI,
solicitor, Of Chertsey, and 1t was his
last request that he should be con
veyed In this manner to the grave.
The journey from Chertsey to Hor-

taciturn-but there was nothing to

Yet Mary shuddered 4 little when
her accepted sutton called, then greet

Weston was a musician of no mean
ability, and occasionally entertained
us all with selections on the piano,
but the fitful way in which he played
when they were alone together i'm
pressed me as being rather strange
He seldom played a selection through
in those circumstances, but seemed
rather to run over the keys idly, i'm

one air and then a few from another.
Once when he was doing this I thought
I heard a wild. pleading cry Of "Oh.

The Macedonia, Captured by Decatur
Now Does Duty as n VII
IaEe Hotel

New York city's absorption Of its
suburbs has been fatal to the race Of
hard-sheIl, brine incrusted clam dig
gers that has for 500 years or more
PeOpled the little dot Of sand in Long
Island sound, one mile long and half
as wide, known as City Island, which
has recently been swallowed up by
the great metropolis. One by one the
hunters Of the OivaITe are being laid
away in the little cemetery overlook
ing the quiet waters OF the sound.
Those VINO have not yet succumbed to
the hand Of time are gradually drift
ing away, seeking other fields, or are
accepting the gold Of associated cap
italists who have within a month past
selected the island as a fruitful field
for speculation, OF see in II golden re-
turn for investment, says the Kansas
City Times.
Only few steps from the sandy
shore where the clam digger pursues
his vacation, and in the lOneIiest part
Of the island, stands the Macedonian
hotel. When the wreck Of the famous
British frigate and prison ship Mace
donna was beached her hulk on the
shores Of Harris island, directly across
the water from City Island, a native
conceived the idea Of putting the solid
and age-prOtected timbers to good
use With boats and assistants he
made many trips to the old hulk, gath
ering the timbers ana towing them to
the beach in front of a piece Of prop
erty when he owned close beside the
shore.
From the wreckage lie erected what
has ever since been known as the Mace
DOMAIN hotel, and on lis side are in
scribed these words, which tell the his
