via the different incoming steamers was

office 1,500 pieces Of foreign registered
mail were received
Superintendent of Carriers Benjamin
Bertsch said this morning to reporter
for 'sThe News':--
The ruch of Christmas mail this year
is twice as large as that of last year. Be
tween now and Christmas we will deliver
over 10000 packages and the registered
letters will so up into the, thousands.
The entire force of substitute carriers,
twenty-nine, were put to work this
morning and will be employed until after
New Years Day. Two extra delivery
wagons are being used to simply carry
packages from the sub-stations to the
of-town places will be almost as large as
that coming in.
WORKING OVERTIME
The carriers have been increased in
numbers, principally in the residential
section, where the delivery of mail is
greatest. The delivery is so great that
the carriers can only make-two and three
deliveries day.. The clerks in my office
will, until after Christmas, work four and
five hours day overtime"
Mr.. Bertsch is assisted in superintend-
ing his department by Edward Carroll
Mr.. Carroll, in speaking of the Christ
mas mail, today said
The due postage alone on the foreign
mail received and delivered today
amounted to over $780,
CHEAPER BY MAIL.
When asked what he thought caused
the large distribution of packages, Mr..
Carroll said
1T is cheaper to send packages
through the mail, and great many peo-
pie think it is also safer
ant Postmaster Edward W. Woolley
made statements corroborating those
made by Superintendent Bertsch and his
assistant.
Mr.. Woolley in speaking of the due
postage said one man collected SIG in
ten cent pieces.

The Ultimate End of the watch.

The Ultimate End of the Watch.
A prominent watch manufacturer is
said to be continually deluged With
questions as to where all the watches
90. This country makes them at the
rate of 5000 day. and this rate is
kept up year in and year out, added to
by countless importations.
81 never was able to answer the
question:" said the manufactures. NO
body In the trade ever tries to. We
find that the life of watch Is but five
years, yet if you will stop fifty men
and ask how long they have carried
their watches forty-nine Of them VIII
say they have only had one watch In
their entire lives.
'We cannot explain the disappear
ance Of watches. They do not go into
the ash bins. / remember when the
New Jersey watch factories closed
that in~ten years we could not find one
of their watches anywhere. They had
disappeared off the face OF the earth,
vet millions had been made. Look at
the key watches. Up to some twenty
years ago we made nothing else. In
that twenty years these millions and
millions of key winding watches have
disappeared, and the question asked
unremittingly, What becomes OF the
watchesY remains unanswered to this
day."-Jewelers' Circular-Weekly.

Fine Flour and Teeth.

Why do colored people as a rule have
such splendid teeth? Mostly because
they have lived on coarse food, which
made demands on the teeth. People
MS a rule now do not want to do any
chewing. They demand meat which
is SO tender that it will melt In
the mouth, etc. Nature, prodigal as
she is, never bestows anything where
II is not used, and the result is that
the civilized races are losing their
teeth. If the style continues to forbid
our teeth to do any grinding, our prog
eny OF, say, 1902 A. D. will be born
tootbless or with only rudimentary
teeth. AS individuals we cannot grow
good teeth in our heads by eating
coarse food. We are beginning to get
bad teeth by heredity. But there Is
almost no tooth or bone forming ma
terial I'm fine white -four, and the avoid
ance of coarse foods undoubtedly has
tens the decaying of our teeth. Per-
haps the millers and the dentists are
In a secret league to work for mutual
interests. Who knows?

Ra1zac and black Coffee.

Balzac was addicted to the use OF
strong black coffee and depended upon
II as a nervous stimulant during the
hours which he devoted to compost
tion. Its effect he has himself de-
scribed In these words:
"The coffee falls into your stomach
Immediately everything starts into ac-
ton. Your ideas begin to move like
Grand Army battalions on the battle
field, and the battle opens. Memories
arrive at a run, standards flying; the
light cavalry of comparisons breaks
into a magnificent gallop; the artillery
of logic dashes up and unlimbers;
thoughts come rushing up as sharp
shooters; characters spring up on all
sides; the paper becomes covered with
ink, for the struggle has begun and
ends in torrents of black water like
the battle In black powder"

rhat Number 13.

So prevalent is the prejudice against
the number 13 that car companies in
many cities have been obliged to omit
It as the car bearing 1t did not "earn
its living" In st. Joseph. Mo-, No. IL
happened to be the car oftenest run
over a certain line in locality chiefly
inhabited by negroes. 1t was discoy-
cred after a time that these would
walk blocks out of their way to take
the cars of a rival line, but as soon as
No. IA was sent down in their district
the company's receipts resumed their
previous figure. Thirteen as a house
number also is looked upon with sus-
picion, and the expedient Of II, lie
and then Is Is often employed.-New

Ono of the Great dinners of venice.

One of the Great Dinners of Venice.
Perhaps the most expensive banquet
ever given in Venice was that to Henry
III. of France. He was Toasted in the
great hall of the doges' palace. and
there were silver plates for 1900
guests. At another time the same
monarch was entertained at a sugar
banquet-the napkins. plates, knives,
forks and even the bread $50 called
were all of sugar. The Venetians were
nightly pleased when Henry took his
napkin In his hands and to his sur-
prise found that it broke to pieces.
At this feast 1890 different dishes
were served, and 300 sugar efhgies
were distributed among the ladies.
