Says President
 Was Insulted
WHY A REQUEST FOR NAMING A MISSISSIPPI POSTOFFIcE
 WAS REFUSED.
Claimed That Governor Vardaman, Af- ter Whom the Office Was to Be Call ed, Had siandered RooseveIt's Moth CT in His Newspaper.

Washington. Aug. 5.-Pos, master General Payne today made the follow ing statement explaining the reasons for refusing to name a Mississippi postoffice in honor of the governor of that state:
 "On the 9th of May, 1904. a petition was filed with the department asking for the establishment of a postoffice at a certain point in Calhoun county, in the State of Mississippi, and request ing that it be named Vardaman.
 Immediately the usual inyestiga- ton made by the department as to the necessity for the establishment for the office was undertaken. Pending the inquiry, a copy of the Daily Clarion Ledger, newspaper published at Jackson, Miss, dated August 25. 1903 was filed with the department, con. taining an article to which the depart. ment's attention was called.
 This article was a copy of an edito- , rial printed in the Commonwealth un der date of January 10, 1903, which paper is published and edited by Gov ernor Vardaman. The article in ques ton was so vile and indecent in its statements concerning the mother oi the president of the United States a: to be unfit for reproduction. The postmaster general did not deem i proper to give a postoffice the name O. a man who had used such language re | garding any woman. The postoffics in question has been ordered estab lished and given the name of Timber vile.
 Tn exercising the discretion giver him, the postmaster general frequent ly rejects names suggested for pro posed postofices. He has never beer clearer as to his duty than in thi case.
 1 Tt is proper to say that Presiden Roosevelt had 10 knowledge of the in cident referred to-"

THE BRIDES PORTION,

At One Time 1t Wns Stated In the
Wedding Announcements.
1t was common custom in the
eighteenth century, especially during
the reign of George H., to insert no.
tices of marriage stating the brides
portion in contemporary periodicals
and newspapers both In England and
Scotland.
Almost every number Of the Gentle
mans Magazine at that time contain
ed several Of these records, of which
the following, In 1871, is specimen:
Married, the Revd. Mr. Roger Waina.
Of York, about twenty-six year Of age.
to Lincolnshire lady, upwards Of
eighty. with whom he Is to have fS,-
600 in money, $500 per annum, and a
coach and four, during life only"
Sometimes the notice merely de-
scribes the bride as lady with a
good portion" or "genteel fortune
One of the latest notices was in Arls'
Birmingham Gazette, July II. 1900,
which recorded the marriage Of Mr..
Canning, undersecretary of state, to
Miss Scott, with 100000 fortune."-

Butterflies aud Moths.

Though butterflies and moths are
found widely distributed all over the
globe they are by far most abundant
In the tropics. For instance, Brazil can
show to the collector not less than 700
different species within an hours walk
Of Para. There are not half as many
in all Europe. In Britain there are 81
species, and In all Europe there are 800
different kinds. They are found as far
north as Spitzbergen. on the Alps to a
height Of 1900 feet and on the Andes
up to $4,000 feet. As there are some
100000 species it is easy to see why
butterfly hunters are great travellers.
