 SEND REGISTERS EARLV-Those WHO desire to send Christmas presents to their friends by registered mail should bear in mind the necessity of sending them early. much earlier in fact than ordinary letters would need 70 De sent, to .tTrlVe on Dee -25. It al- Ways takes a registered letter or par eel much longer to go any great dis tance than 1t does an ordinary letter. for the reason that each person who handles t has 10 receipt for it and make q record of it in his books re- gardless of whetberE he misses a train connection or not as safety is the prin- cipal consideratien. Time is there fore often lost in connections. In the holiday season though, these conditions are made still more distressing by the fast that everybody wants to send his package at the same time and the pos tai officials can only do so much work in day The registers have to be handled systematically if 1t takes all winter to get them worked~of. It is therefore advised that a Christmas package ought to be started at least a week earlier tLan an ordinary letter to reach any particular point This holds good even in sending to nearby California for California postofices are so rushed with tourists during the holi- day season that it sometimes takes a long time to deliver a register after it's arrival.

COFFEE AL ExONERATED
Paid the Full Penalty for Heinous
 Crime of natrimOny.

It is a violation of the regulations nf
 the B. ?. O. Elks. for any member to
 get married after he has joined that Order. The crime is not one that may be punished by expulsion. nevertheless it is heinous and demands a severe penalty. Coffee Al is the latest member of the local lodge to be called to an ac- counting.

HE GOT OFF EASILY
Fred Raine, Self Confessed Youthful
 Thief.

Fred Raine, the boy who was caught by Deputy Sheriff Duncan in the act of robbinG the money drawer at the Phoenix Poultry yards. got or much easier yesterday than he had expected. Instead of being sent to the reform school, which it was thought would be the best thing for him. Justice Robertson sent him to the county ilil for twenty-twO days. The boy plead ed guilty and Justice Robertson said he would take the case unde- advise ment until in tho afternoon. Assistant District Attorney Bull3rd urged that the boy be committed to the industrial school for at least a year. That seem ed to be the only thing. that could be done to save him from confirmed crim- inality. But the father of the hoy made a plea for him. He said he had ten children but intimated that he needed this one though according to his story the child is only eleven years old.
 The boy repeated in court the2 con fession he made at the time of his ar rest. He said that he hadsrobbed the store five times and that he had se- cured altogether about S27. In his for mer confession he said that he had given his sister at one time S1O. but he denied that yesterday.
 His father gave as one of the reasons that he did not want the hoy sent to Benson that he was afraid he could not stand the climate of the school. He said that when he was a baby he swat lowed a bullet and had ever since had intestinal trouble, which he feared would be greatly aggravated in case he should be removed out of the climate in which he had afvvaZrs lived

Some mem bers of the lodge pleaded for him iR OK tenUatiOn that much smarter men than he had committed the same crime, but the dame with the mask, the toad sticker and the balances, overruled everything and said that nothing short of regular Coffee Al banque. could blot out .he evil influence of his trans sression on the brethren, while the sin itseR must asand against him forever. Coffee AL of course, took his medicine. as all married men have to do and last night he save the banquet. It was royal feast for the hungry herd wlich apprecisted before it was over. that they had been outraged through justice having been delayed 60 long. Many of them might have died before last night
 The banquet was held in Elks' hall and there was good attendance of the brethren. There was speechmak- ing both by the lamb that was sacrf- feed and the bunch that. barbecued him. During the orgies one of the brethren in dhe name of the whole band of couspfrators presented Conee Al with handsome water pitcher. as a souvenir of the first. time he was ever fined for getting married.

the Ferari Carnival company has
many new and surprising features,
which those who braved the elements
last night will have chance to view
this afternoon. "Mamie' and the

to be seen and the "Stadium' and
"Humpty-Dumpty" and all the 9TH

to them which would make them
prove star attractions. In addition
to the shows under canvas the high

A NEW LABOR UNION BODY.
Public and Private Improvement
Council It's Name.

Without any preliminary blast Of
senting 10000 outside workers. was
formed the other day at a meeting of
delegates Of fory-two unions in hall
in New York Among the trades repre-
scented were the foundation bricklayers,
pipe calkers and tappers, stationary en-
gineers, f1remen, PAYERS, bluestone cut
tiers, hammers. team drivers, rock drill
ers, house shorers and movers, team
stsrs, asphalt workers and Tuckmen.
Matthew McConvtlle Of the Safety AS
ISOLATION of Engineers presided. and
the meeting was behind closed doors,
says the New York Tribune.
1t was decided to organize as the Pub
lie and Private Improvement council.
with Matthew McConville as temporary
president and ]. Noonan of the PAYERS
union as temporary secretary.
The following announcement was
made:
This council is composed Of outside
trades which are so allied that spe-
cial central body was necessary. There
has been a tendency during the last
three or four years, owing to the adj
vance in methods or work and ma
chinery, toward dividing work which
used to be done by one man or set of
men into several branches. which have
by degrees become special trades. Some
Of these trades were not in existence
when the first central bodies were
formed. It therefore became necessary
to form a central organization Of the
trades that they may cooperate to-
gether more effectively"
1t was stated that the new body is
not antagonists to existing bodies.
Some of it's unions are affiliated with
the Board Of Building Trades and 9th
er bodies, and the organization of the
new body does not necessarily mean
that it's unions will give up former af-
citations, it was said.

NEW WAY TO PAY OLD DEBT
A Merchants Business Lesson
from Country Customer.

A Main street merchant in Kansas
City, Mo-, who has a wholesale depart
ment in connection with his retail bust
ness had an experience few days ago
with a country merchant the like OF
which, he says, has not been duplicated
in his thirty years business experience,
says the Kansas City Star.
The out of town merchant owed the
Kansas City house 5000 for goods pur-
chased a month previous. The bill
was due, and a letter was written re-
questing payment. a letter came back
SAYING that the writer was somewhat
short of cash and requested an extern
sion of ninety days on the bill. The
Kansas City merchant wrote another
letter saying that he must insist upon
the payment of his bill and suggested
that if the customer was hard up the
local bank would undoubtedly accom-
modate him with loan for $500, so
that the bill might be paid.
In seventy-two hours the Kansas City
man received a reply, which he is car
rying around and showing to his friends
as a certificate of the nerviest business
proposition ever issued in Missouri.
The letter follows:
Dear Sir-Your letter of Dec. 70 came
today and noted. 1 was much pleased
with your suggestion about borrowing
money from the bank here. In fact'
was so pleased that this morning L went
to the bank and asked for loan. l was
told that it would be necessary to get an
other signature on the note besides my
own. Now. l .ion't care to ask any one
down here to indorse for me, but as you
and I have had considerable business 10
gether 1 inclose the note for your sigma
ture. Please sign just below where
have written my name.
You will probably notice that the note
is for $500 instead of 5000, the amount OF
your bill You see L owe two other fel-
lows who handle the same kind OF goods
as YOU. $50 EACH and 1 thought as long
as you and 1 are going to pay your bill
we might as well borrow enough to pay
the other fellows at the same time
