WAtCh for Friday Night'S AdV.

The sum of $500 was allowed at Ston- ington, upon the recommendation of Congressman Russell, from June p, 1900. until August 9, 1903 In the same way S1OO was allowed at Strat- ford at the recommendation of some one in the White House, presumably the late John Addison Porter. This amount was reduced to $50 May 16, 1903. At the Woodbury office $50 has been allowed from time to time for clerk hire, at the recommendation of Mir Hill, but it was finally discontin- ued' August 1, 1903.
 In all these cases the allowance was made because of mail handled in tran sit Tn these towns there are several postoffices and the main office gets considerable mail intended for the other offices. The postmasters know these parties live in another section of the tewn, but unless they are given clerk allowance to remail these letters they are not allowed to transmit them. They can only send them to the dead letter office at Washington. Hence the amounts were asked for clerk hire in each one of these cases and the people served as they should be. Hamden for instance has four post offices besides the Hamden one, and the postmaster there is kept busy re- mailing letters that should go to one or the other of the four postoffices. In some of these towns the clerk allow ance may not be needed now. as free rural delivery has taken its place but at the time the members recommended the allowances they were needed and for the benefit of the public the offices served.
 There sis considerable feeling here about this report, not so much as to what it contains as the way it is put and the use that can be made of it. Anyone who reads the report, carefully can see that there is nothing wrong in these recommendations of the mem- bers, but sensational stories can easily be made up from the report. This is what the members of congress object to and which does them injustice

RazOrS, Combs and Other
Articles Found on Them
When Searched

Two hoboes giving the name of An.
eel Crisler and Rear Hill were captured
last night by the police at the depot,
where they were trying to catch train
out Of town. They were taken up on
suspicion, and it was learned that they
had stolen an overcoat from waiter
at Strong restaurant, and the charge
of larceny from building was en-
tered against them. When searched
number of razors, combs, knives and
cigars were found on the men, and it
is thought they are wanted somewhere
down the line for the robbery Of bar
Der shop, and the police are sending
questions to that effect to all the towns
on the road. 1t is thought without
doubt that something will be learned
of the men in the near future.

4 RACER

John Krebs covered the distance be-
tween Independence and Salem Tues.
day in 80 minutes by his own count,
says the Independence Enterprise. The
trip was made behind a black Alta
mont flyer, present from his brother
Conrad. Conrad would not have in his
possession a slow horse even. to give
away. A characteristic of this partic.
uIar animal are his bursts of speed,
md no one can tell when they are COM
ing on. Tuesday was his day. and the
driver had no time to tip his hat to
those he met along the way to Salem.
The only incident of the trip occurred
when the horse swerved a mile north of
Independence, upsetting the buggy, and
landing the animal on his back in
ditch. In attempting to alight in an
adiaeent pasture, John failed to take
into consideration a barbed wire fence.
Flesh torn from both hands and from
one of his neither limbs marks the point
ot contact with the wire. The horse
was not hurt, nor the buggy broken,
nor even trace severed, and John
alone paid the penalty of the accident
on surgeon s table in Salem.
