BRlS1oW LEADS THE WORK.

Kansas City, Mo-, Mar SOL. r.
Harrison, chief Of inspectors Of the
postoffices in the Southwest, with head
quarters at Kansas City, has been
ordered and has already gone to Wash
ington to Smoke out" the conditions
Of fraud in the postofice in connection
with the 'get-rich-quicl" schemes. He
was summoned byJ. L. Bristow, fourth
assistant postmaster general, to re-
ceive personal instructions for vigor.
GUS prosecution OF these frauds
Harrison Is the man who exposed the
Nicely Rathbone- Reeves frauds in the
Cuban postal service, and was for a
long time postmaster Of Havana under
the United States He Is Kansas
man and was formerly railway post.
al clerk. He and Bristow are great
personal friends, and when the latter
got to Washington he favored Harri-
son to the extent Of making him
postof1cc inspector. When the Cuban
frauds came up, Bristow thought about
Harrison and sent for him, just as he
has done in this case. Harrison went
to Havana, and worked out the frauds
and steals there.
The ''get-rich-quick" frauds are now
under investigation in the postofice
department. 1t is charged that the
officers accepted money to indorse GER
tain Of these suspicious concerns, and |
that letters from them of an official
character were so worded that they |
could be used in advertising matter as
Endorsements Of the business. Thus
the concerns, which nave all since been
declared frauds and which have failed
without assets Of any tangible value
were enabled to pass muster ostensibly
under government sanction, and this
fact was one Of their strongest adver-
tisements. The concern most impli.
Gated is the former Arnold company,

Tho New Law Reduces Tho Tax Of
ButterIns. 9
Topeka, Mar. 31.-The Grout anti
oleomargarine bill passed by congress
year ago has not worked out as those
backing IT intended. The object Of
the bill was to stop the manufacture Of
oleomargarine The creamery men Of
the country pushed 1t through con-
gress. But the law has not stopped
the making Of oleo nor even checkedit
More butterine Is now made than ever.
The only thing that the law has done
is to deprive the government Of IN
cents tax. Under the old law the gov
eminent got ? cents tax per pound.
Under the new law the government
was to receive 10 cents tax per pound
for colored oleo, and Y cent per pound
for oleo in Its natural color, which is
white. The butterine factories are
turning out more white butterine now
than they used to turn out Of the col.
ored product, and they pay only \
cent tax now where they used to pay
2 cents. The demand is increasing
right along. D........
"The records In our office show that
the western factories are making more
cleo now than they did before the
Grout bill took effect" said Collector
jim Simpson, Of the internal revenue
office. "But we do not take in as
much cash for stamps on account Of

The Benefit of Fads.

If you haven't fad, acquire one.
g., Fads are the charm of life. A fad
may be anything. Some people make a
fad Of their work, and better work
would be done if more of us tried it,
but if you get enough Of your work
in working hours take up something
else.
The trouble with great many young
men who go the way they shouldn't go
is that they have nothing to occupy
their minds, nothing in which they are
interested. When spare time comes, it
hangs heavily on their. hands, The
natural, inclination is to be sociable,
and that leads to taking a drink. That
in turn leads to more drinks, and by
and by the crash comes.
II you are interested in something,
il you are fascinated with it, time will
fly swiftly, and you will be happy.
Take up something-golf, amateur
photography, physical culture-any-
thing that will rouse your enthusiasm
and hold it. You won't know yourself
in six months. 1t will get your mind
out of rut, get it off yourself, and
you will be broader, stronger and bet
ter for having been the possessor Of
fad.-ToledO Bee.

proper remuneration for railroads in
carrying them and at present a large
force is employed in this service for
the quadrennial weighing in the Tenth

Wisconsin and the upper peninsula
of M ,chigan. The work is superviseds,
from the St. Paul office of the railway
mail service. Ga Wednesday the
work OF weighing began on the mail
trains out of this city, and it is safe to-
say that Willmar will contribute q
very large share Of the mail that will
be handled by the force of weighers.
The work will require the services Of
about 500 extra men. The mail car
ried on every train within the district
will be carefully weighed, together
with all the equipment necessary for.
carrying the mail. Extra men will be:
placed on all of the m all cars and q.
careful account will be kept of every
pound of mail handled. In order to
secure correct estima ate of the aver
age amount ct ma handled the weigh,
ing will be continued three months Or
