Rural Delivery Notes

Throughout the Rocky mountain re
gion there are few rural delivery
routes because of the topography and
the long distances. But the system is
growing along the Pacific coast Cali
fornia now has HI rural routes. Ore
Eon IS and Washington 80
The development of rural postal de
livery continues To contribute to the
general movement toward road i'm
proVement. \ notable instance is the
recent passage of an act of the Indiana
legislature setting aside = per cent of
the total road tax for roads Travelled by
rural mail carriers.
In recent civil service examinations
for positions in the rural free delivery
service thirty seven women passed the
examinations and have been appoint
cd To positions in the service. Reports
ut the office of the superintendent Of
rural delivery show that the women

of state aid Of course has to be borne
by the cities on account of the greater
valuation.
The state of New Jersey, the first
state in the Union TO give state aid. has
been building roads since 1891. That
state has secured the best results OF
any state giving state aid. The in
crease of SCI 100000 In the value OF
taxable property In New Jersey Is Mt
tributcd in large measure TO the eX-
cellent roads. The cost of these roads
has not been burden.
The benefits derived are found in the
greatly increased valuation of proper
ty large increase in population of n
desirable class and in all lines of trade.
The farmers find II great advantage in
the easier passage of their products to
market and large saving in the wear
and tear of their horses and vehicles.
Oyer continuous good road heavy
loads ARE hauled with less number of
horses than were formerly required
for small load on II poor road. The

EVlCT 100 ITALIANS.
By Order of Woodbury., the City
Dumps Are Cleared.

After thirty years OF undisputed possession, the
hundred or more Italian garbage "trimmers" who
nave found free lodgings under the city dumps on
the North and East rivers. were yesterday evicted
by order OF Street Commissioner Woodbury., and
the use OF the dumping piers places of human
habitation win no longer be allowed
Ever since the piers have been used for dump
ing garbage and refuse the "trimmers'' have found
the spaces between the floor of the piers and the
top OF the runways from which the wagons dump
their refuse, convenient to live in, as there was
no rent to pay. and the places near their
work. The 'trimmers' found mattresses and other
dilapidated furniture in the refuse they handled,
and tie spaces were furnished I'm a style which
they regarded comfortable. if not luxurious. and
from which the tenants were reluctant TO be driven
Commissioner Woodbury. recently received let
ter from the Citizens Union, whose attention had
called to the presence Of these squatters. in
which the places declared to be menace to
the welfare Of the city II was also said that men,
women and children work, eat and sleep in the
novels together, under the most unhealthy and
squaIid conditions Health Department inspectors
who had been looking the piers before the let
ter received from the Citizens Unlon while
agreeing that the conditions were certainly objec
tionabe, reported that women children were
sleeping in the dumps. and inquiries of nine Of the
eleven inspectors in charge Of the dumps in Man
haitian yesterday showed that only adults used the
places permanent lodgings. Besides the trim
ners'' who sleep there at night five times many
italians work the refuse in the daytime and
70 home at night.
Commissioner Woodbury. decided that the Ital-
tsns would have to go, and order was
issued Thursday by Acting Superintendent A. De
Wilde. Of the Department Of Final Disposition,
dering the inspectors to see that after yesterday
all trunks, beds and cooking apparatus be removed
from the runways and from underneath the
dumping boards of the Department. and that the
OF the sleeping apartments be dis
continued. The Italians were told Of their i'm
pending fate. but none of them removed their
belongings, evidently hoping that they might still
be allowed TO stay. Yesterday the different in
spectors set their TO work cleaning out the
EQuatters' homes. In spite of the voluble ex-
postulations Of the "trimmers,'' the places were
quickly cleaned out.
