as to give an opportunity of sending

The bill has not yet been seriously

given such attention as it's special
promoters seem to think it deserves.
It is interesting, however, as illus
trating one of the many phases of

It's advocates claim that the pro-
posed system would not entirely SUI
persede the money order system, be-
cause for money over $50 the cost
would be slightly cheaper under the
present money order system; but it
is thought that such a system of pos

much used smaller currency and

Redeeming Feature.
Chinese inns are without res r. or
clerks. On riding through the gateway
your bride rein is seized by dirty
boy, who helps you to dismount, shout
ing loudly meanwhile for the proprie-
tor, who presently looms up through
the wilderness of carts and mules. Pro-
prietor and boy then hold a parley as
to what rooms are eligible, and then a
door is pushed open and the traveller is
shown to his apartment. 1t is usually
about twelve feet square The walls
and floor are of hard mud, and so are
the beds, which extend entirely across
the side of the room, with only space
enough between them for small table
and one chair. The room is lighted by
one window, in which paper takes the
place of glass.
The first duty of the proprietor in
making patron comfortable is to stop
up the holes in the paper window pane
He never tears the paper off entirely
and replaces it with a new one, be-
cause the sheet of paper is worth
about one-tenth of a cent, and the inn
keeper is not wasteful. Indeed he
pastes little slips of paper over the
holes until all the light that filters
through it is of a notified hue.
At one end of the mule shed is the
kitchen of the inn. 1t is here that the
meals for all the patrons are prepared,
to be eaten in the rooms. The menu is
not elaborate. 1t consists only of bowls
Of rice and tea. Should the traveller de.
sire greater variety of food, he can
buy it himself in the market, and his
own servant can cook it in the kitchen

ern politics. He was born in Yazoc
City, Miss. in 1854, and his political
career began in 1866, when he was
elected to the state legislature A few
years later he was president of the
state senate and in 1892 was attorney
general. Declining a second term in
this office to become a candidate for
governor, he was elected to the euber

in the political history of the state
Since his retirement in 1897 he has
practiced law at Little Rock.
While governor Mr.. Clarke gave
taste of the fighting qualities for which
he is noted. Arrangements had been
made to bring off prizefght at Hot
Springs between Corbett and Fitzsim-
mons. Governor Clarke forbade the
men to hold the contest in Arkansas,
declaring it illegal. When it was sug.

circumvent his authority, he raked up

Mr.. Sullivan had no political expert

Theories About Drowned Bodies.

1t was popular theory in days gone
by that the body of drowned man
would float the ninth day. Sir Thomas
Browne alludes to it as believed in his
time, and in his "Pseudo-doxia Epi-

fanciful notion. 1t was also believed
that the spirits of those drowned at sea
were doomed to wander for hundred
years owing to the rites of burial hav-
ing never been properly bestowed upon
