POSTOFFICE IMPORTATION
Christmas Pointers and the Improper
Use of the Telephone.

Since the middle of last week the
Phoenix postoffice has done the heavi-
est business in its history for the same
length of time. Each days task is
finished before the dawn of u succeed
ing day. though to bring about this
haTpy result II has been necessary for
several d tys past to employ q for e of
men at night III catching up with the
clerical work, cleaning up the odds and
ends OF the day and getting ready for
the next day. rush This is accomplish
ed mainly through good organization
and the good facilities now provided in
the new quarters.
The mails yesterday came in on time
but two or three days ago one mail was
missed that has never caught up yet
That is, the mail has beer q day be-
hind the schedule from that direction
and tcdsy it is expected that a double
cargo will be received. thus clearing
up the back mails. That the consign-
ment will be a large one, heavily laden
with Christmas boxes may well be eX-
pected.
In this connection there are a couple
of bits of postal information it Will BE-
Wei for all to read and remember dur
ing these Christmas times. One is that
there is a penalty of ten dollars for en-
closing any writing in, a package sent
through the mails unless letter post
age is paid on it. The law reads that
fourth class mail matter must include
no writing. and all those who want to
send a pleasant word of greeting along
with their gifts viii have TO pay letter
postage or send their Christmas greet
ings in a. Geparate envelope
The other is in respect Of telephoning
to the postoffice.
T. J. Wynne, first assistant postmas-
ter general, makes the following an
nouncement cautioning postal employees
about giving information by telephone
regarding mail matter in postOffices:
THE attention of the department has
been called to the common practice
that prevails in postoffices where tele-
phones have been installed, of answer
ing inquiries made by strangers or by
persons whose voices are not recog-
ni2ed by the postmaster or clerk who
answers the telephone, concerning mail
matter in the office. Under section $40
p. l.. and r. +5ostmasters and all 9TH
ers in the postal service are prohibited
from furnishing any information con-
corning mail matter received or deliv-
cred except to the person to whom it is
addressed or their authorized agents.
The attention of all pOstmasters and
postal employees is called to this mat
ter and strict compliance with the reg
ulaticn is enjoined."

THE N. 0P. Q S. K. v. RAILROAD

however, are largely composed of an
other circle of men and they prefer to
run the line independently. Having so
expressed themselves the bondholde-s
and the Southern Pacific management
ecquiesced in the matter as it seemed
TO be immaterial to them how the
road was operated so it was run prop

THE EASTERN SUGAR co.
There Will be Nothing Doing the Com
ing Season.

Mr.. Howard /. Shepherd, one of the
receivers of the Eastern Sugar com
pany, who has been here for the past
week acquainting himself with the af-
fairs of the company, last night issued
a notice to the beet growers of the val
ley or to the proposed beet growers.
The notice is as follows:
THE Eastern Sugar company has
been placed in the hands of receivers.
and is unable to continue it's business
owing to its inability, up to the pres
ent time. TO dispose of a sufficient
number of bonds to insure the com
pletion of its factory.
1T will be impossible under any
circumstances to resume operations in
time to utilize beets of this seasons
planting. This notice is given in order
that farmers who have contracted for
bects. or are holding. land in readiness
to be planted to beets, may use their
land for other crops and not lose the
use of same for this season.
las soon as further action is de-
termined upon additional advices will
be given"
Mr.. Shepherd is hopeful of soon un-
travelling the tangle, but he is unable
to say how soon it may be done. He
is working in the interest of not only
the company and its stockholders but
also in that of the farmers who had
entered into contracts with the COM
pany. His work will be greatly facili-
tated if he is freed from petty annoy
ances by those who have been disap-
pointed in their relations to the com
pany. 1t is his purpose to keep all who
are interested in the affairs of the
company acquainted with the progress
of his work Of acknowledgements.

HER FIRST BEAU.

He always had been cold and stiff,
Nor loves great passion felt;
But when he saw the pretty. maid
His frigid air would melt.
She won his heart by kindly acts,
With merry jests and quips,
And with her own fair hand she placed
A pipe between his lips.
Beneath her window he would stand
And brave the midnight breeze,
And then one sunny afternoon
He got upon his knees.
In vain he begged embrace or kiss,
For Fate had said him nay;
SO, wasted by his hopeless love,
The Snow Man passed away.

DEATH FIAT TO ALAsKANs.
Game Laws Recently Passed by Gov
eminent VIII Mean Starvation
to the Natives.

Recent advices received from Nome
Alaska, say that in passing the recent
game law for Alaska Uncle Sam has
issued a fiat of death against many
Of the native Alaskans, some Of his
best and most generous subjects. Un-
less something is done promptly, hum
dreds of them will die Of famine before
the close of the long, bitter winter,
says a Seattle dispatch to the Chicago
Inter Ocean.
The natives Of northwestern Alaska
live by fishing andhunting. They know
absolutely nothing Of agriculture, and
beyond a few berries, the bleak, barren
tundra yields nothing to aid to sup
port life. Butthey are industriousand
enterprising. In summer they fish,
dry their salmon and tomcods for the
winter, and preserve their seal and
whale oils in skins. Since the white
men came, with their big cannery
seines and Wholesale methods Of kill
ing game and fab, the Alaskan has
found it hard to live.
But he has never complained never
resented the advent Of the white man.
The history Of the peninsula does not
record a case where an Esdmo has
refused to help a white man IN DIS
tress or has let him go hungry when
he has had a bite Of hsh or a drop OF
oil to share with him.
The fishing season Is now on for
the Alaskan. He IL getting his PRINT
tive traps in the rivers, and later In
the fall he will fab for sealsand whalea

Ash traps on the rivers.
When the district attorneys office
at Nome was interviewed on the sub.
ject 1t was stated here too, the new
law must be complied with-the ESd-
mo must be made to comply. This
means that he will get few, II any, fish,
and that this winter he must starve.
Last winter Maj. Booth, commander
OF the post at Nome, issued over 1000
rations to the starving Port Safety Es-
hmos. The bill was not allowed bv
the war department, and the kind
hearted major had to pay It out Of
his own pocket. This year there IN

are starving he viii probably remem-

In a few weeks winter will close

Is this; For Gods sake exempt them
from the jurisdiction Of the game law
and instruct commanders TO give them
Tetions when they are indeed IN dirsgt

amounting with 1t, preceded by a hot
bath with Cuticura Soap, and followed
In the severer cases by a dose Of Cuti-
cura Resolvent Pills, Is often sufficient
to afford immediate relief In the most
distressing forms Of itching, burning

all other remedies fail. 1t Is especially
so In the treatment Of infants and chill
dren, cleansing, soothing and healing
the most distressing OF infantile hui
mours, and preserving, purifying and

Cuticura Ointment possesses, at the
same time, the charm Of satisfying the

of this.
