The news which has been received

there is water and the grazing Is good.
The somali scouts continue to sustain
successfully the minor skirmishes
with the Mullah's patrols, the losses
in these engagements being mainly on
the side OF the enemy. Spies have re-
ported considerable reduction or

POSTAL FRAUDS OF THE PAST.

Although the current campaign
against boodlars in the postoffce de.
partment is beginning To present the
aspect OF procession OF rascals re-
firing from office, says the Los An
Eeles Express. there Is a measure OF
omfort In comparing the incident with
others which have occurred In the
same department. When one recalls
the star route scandals Of the Hayes
Garfield Arthur administrations the
present crop Of transgressors has the
appearance of a petit larceny crowd

This may not be an indication OF
growth in official virtue. but Ii conveys
the impression of greater care In ad.

partment to Increase the service or re-

fabulous amounts. Thus the lnvesti-
cation disclosed the fact that one
route let for s400 had been improved
until the compensation Of the con
tractor amounted to more than $4,000,
while the revenue from the route was
less than $3.50 In another case, the
government paid 100000 year for

ELECTION OF A POPE.

On several occasions In the Middle
Ages the need Of the immediate choice
Of a pope became so Urgent that the
people kept the cardinals under lock
and key TO force an election. Because
OF this custom the electoral session
came to be called n conclave. from
claws. a key. In medieval times the
conclave was held almost anywhere in
southern Europe. but in the last cen.
fury IL settled In Rome. There Is q
sacred tradition that the conclave
should meet in the building where the
pope died. Gree DRY XVI. for instance,
expired in the Quirinal, and Plus TX
was elected within that palace. Plus
TX died in the vatican and Leo XIII
was chosen in the sistine chapel of the
