DEATH DEPLORED.
Official Associates of DR.. Johnston Paw
Tribute to His Memory.

At a meeting held recently of the hoard
of visitors of the Government Hospital for
| the Insane a minute was adopted express
ing the sorrow of the members over the
death of DR.. w. w. Johnston, a member of
the board, who was referred to as a ply
slcian of prominence and a citizen of wide
influence in the community. DIR. Johnston
1t is declared, was member of this board
for six years, and was always active in its
duties and intelligently interested in the
work Of the hospital. BY education and by
nature he was fitted for valuable assistance
In this great work and he performed it
well.
Progressive and Of broad attainments he
gave to all the duties of his chosen work
the best efforts of which he was capable
He was earnest and interchangeable consci-
entiously discharging each duty with sound
judgment and unusually clear perception
His answering devotion to his life work
and his active interest in all that looked
to the betterment of the community in
which he lived made an impression on all
those with whom he came in contact and
will for many years serve a guide and
stimulus to those who come after His
preparation for work thorough. He
laid the foundations broad and deep. Fa-
vored by his environment, he utilized we'll
all the opportunities offered him, and in
his profession and as a citizen his example
may well be taken as model by those who
would shape career of usefulness to their
fellows. He wasted none of his gifts. but
with marked singleneSS Of purpose and with
untiring energy devoted them to the prob
lens he encountered.
LAS educator he stood pre-eminent.
His thorough training and his clear judg-
ment made him a safe guide and he was
singularly fortunate in his Interpretation Of
the phenomena Of life and the mysteries Of
his chosen profession. AS a friend and ad-
wiser he was loyal and true to the highest
principles. His busy life made 1t difficult
for him to give much of his time to the
work of this hospital, but what he did was
done effectively and with clear and intelli-
gent discernment His death We deeply de-
plore and as board we desire to place on
record our appreciation of his great worth
and our realization Of the almost irrepa-
rable loss to the community and to this
hospital

pected decrease in receipts from sales that
naturally followed the adoption of a do
mestic basis of postage with the United
States had been reduced by January / to
daily average of 81 76, and the loss from
this cause, it is assumed, already has been
overcome from the accruing increase In
business.
ing the six months were $1S1, ,T7S; average
monthly receipts, $50, ,296; average daily re-
ceipts, $9SS. These receipts were mostly
from stamp sales, which aggregated S167,-
S6S during the half year. The expenses
were 500, ,7O3, equal to the rate of 4O1, ,4O6
year. However, there will accrue for
payment during the latter half of this year
transportation expenses, chiefly for for
eign service, aggregating $4,000. The an
nual outlay for the Cuban postal service
therefore, has been brought well within an
estimated rate Of $420,OO0, a decrease of
$34, ,2S5 from the previous fiscal year. The
expenditures still overrun the revenues by
$4,000, or about 13 per cent.
There are 71S persons on the postal pay
rolls. including star route contractors,
thirty three of whom are Americans
ing, and the service is becoming more
completely Cubanized. Except for the
American postmaster at Santiago, the sery-
ice outside of Havana already is wholly in
the hands of the Cubans. The salaries of
the postmasters constitute % per cent of
the expenditures.
The lesson found hardest to teach the Gu
bans is the relation of postmasters salaries
to the business Of the offices. Cuban mer-
chants find 1t profitable to carry postage
stamps as merchandise, by buying them
with American money and selling them at
a retail price for Spanish money. Such
stamps frequently are ordered from Ha-
vana or other large towns as part of the
general orders for goods, thus deranging
the normal operation of supply and demand
for postage within community itself
Director General FoSnes says he expects
to leave every postmaster in Cuba under
bond when the United States retires from
the island next month. There has been a
notable increase in money order business
between the United States and Cuba. The
average money order is $31, against the
average of s. in the United States. Cuban
money orders paid in the United States dur
ing the six months aggregated $42S, ,526, and
those payable in Cuba, but issued in the
United States, aggregated sS5, ,4S1
The postal order service of Cuba" the
report concludes, "can reach it's legitimate
measure Of usefulness and popularity only
on the basis of one uniform circulating me-
dunn. The present standard is American
money, while Spanish coins of different and
fuctuating values circulate commercially"

WHITE HOUSE RENOVATION.
The East Room is to Be Made State
Dining Room.


The White House is to have a thorough
renovation on artistic lines for the first
time since President Arthur's administra-
tion Mrs. Roosevelt has had her attention
called to the building and to the pressing
need Of new furnishings and adornments to
make the place suitable for the entertain
ment of large parties. So heavy has grown
the list of favored guests in the Roosevelt
household that they have found it neces-
sary to have recourse to the famous east
room as dining room. which, by the way,
was a part of the original design of the
house. One feature of the plan of renova-
ton is to turn this great east room into a
state dining room, involving transforma-
ton of the decorations into those of the
colonial style, with open fireplaces. The
present old-fashioned flooring will give
place to a new parquet floor of hard, pol
ished woods, and an enormous rug espe-
cially designed to suit the decorative
scheme of the room will be woven in one
piece so that the room may be easily turned
into a charming ball room.
The White House dining service Is q
strange conglomeration of antique and mod
ern glass, silver and porcelain, and so many
pieces have disappeared that it is no longer
sufficient either in quality or In number of
pieces to serve large dinner parties. The
new service which is wanted will be Of
SevreS porcelain.
The present state dining room will be
used for small dinner parties. 1t also will
be redecorated, the present yellow color
scheme being obnoxious to the family.
The entrance hall Of the house also is to
be renovated in order that in general tone
and character of decoration it may accord
with the embellished east room. In addition
to these changes there Is need for addi-
tions for lighting facilities, and also for a
staircase to the attic, very urgent need
in case of fire, the servants now being de-
pendent entirely upon the elevator. Much
new furniture of modern style is required
in place of the nondescript types now scat
tered through the portions of the house de-
voted to social uses. To defray the expense
of this undertaking an estimate of about
$4,000 was submitted to Congress, and as
reported yesterday the sundry civil bill
contains the necessary allotment.
