Mr.. Mudd viii Do His Rest.

Mr.. Ernest Flagg. of New York, the
architect Of the new buildings of the Naval
Academy, was i'll Washington Wednesday
and conferred with Representative Mudd
concerning an additional appropriation of
Congress for completing the work at
Annapolis. Mir. Mudd will ask the Naval
Committee to grant the additional money
desired, although it is by no means GER
tain that he will be successful
1t is estimated that at least s., OOO, OOO
extra will be needed, but only a portion
of this sum will be asked for at the out
set. The idea is to get an authorization
for the work at this season. Admiral
Brownson, superintendent Of the academy
was here Tuesday and consulted with
Senator Hale, chairman of the Senate
Naval Affairs Committee, on the subject
In speaking of the work at the Naval
Academy Mr.. Mudd said Wednesday:
I'VE must get this appropriation. il
possible. and every fort will be made tc
secure it. If the money is not forthcom
ing it will mean a more cheaply bull
academy than is now contemplated. This
Is not at all desirable. Either crampeG
quarters must be provided for the ad
ditional cadets in prospect or the build
ings must be of the very cheap variety.

Rural Free Delivery.

Experience shows, as was expected,
that rural free delivery enables the farmer
to get better price for his products
through daily information about market
conditions. The Postmaster General re-
fers to instances in which cattle growers,
through the prompt delivery of quotations,
shaped their plans anew and saved more
than the total cost of rural delivery over
the routes on which they lived. Along
every route the price Of. farm lands has
improved. All these advantages, the
Postmaster General remarks, 'have been
equaled. if not surpassed, by the social
lieving the monotony of rural life by
bringing city and country into close con-
nection, and giving the farmer an oppor-
tunity of keeping abreast with the rest of
the world" It will take good deal of
money to extend rural free delivery as
fast as is desirable but it can be largely
obtained by the continued correction OF
abuses in second class matter. Mr.. Payne
advises Congress to charge publications,
other than daily and weekly papers, about
four cents q pound for delivery, and says
the increase in revenues from this source
will almost pay the cost of the complete
establishment of rural free delivery. Con
gress should act favorably on this recon-
mendation At an carly day. 1t will ad
vance the interests and welfare of millions
