resent that rural mail boxes can only be OBJ
tanned through subscriptions to their publ
cations.
Departmental officials say that the represen-
tations referred to are, at least, misleading in
asmuch as there are upwards of 1SO rural mail
boxes on the market which have received the
official Endorsement and approval of the De-
partment. Postmasters, however, are not per-
mitted to act as agents for any particular box,
or receive compensation for ordering boxes.

The Riggs Road Again.-One feature of
the Riggs road case, which has been pending a
long time before the County Commissioners
and the Circuit Court, was definitely settled on
Wednesday by the County Commissioners.
Mr.. Yellott stated that the Commissioners had
viewed the South road and had suggested that
some changes be made in it for the convenience
of public travel, to which it was held that all
of the parties concerned would agree. The
suggestions were that three abrupt turns in
the road should be improved. Mr.. T. Dudley
Riggs agreed to utilize as much of bis land as
is necessary to make the changes, which is not
more than IL feet at each point.
Mr.. Samuel M. Shoemaker on behalf OF his
mother, stated that she would be willing to
allow the necessary part of her land needed to
straighten out one of the turns on the road.
The Commissioners announced that in view of
the agreement entered upon by Mr.. Riggs and
his neighbors the petition for the closing of the
South road would be dismissed.
Col. D. G. Mcintosh and Major John l. Vel
lott appeared for Mr.. Riggs and Messrs. Red
mond c. Stewart and Oscar Wolff for the pc
titioners.
On Thursday the Highways Commissioners
made an Intellectual effort to bring about a
compromise between Mr.. Riggs and his neigh
bors in the matter of the relocation of the
North road, running through the farm of Mr..
Riggs AS result the Commissioners decided
to appoint examiners to pass upon the matter
in the regular way. The examiners will re-
port to the Commissioners as to what. in their
Judgment, is the best manner to suit pubic
convenience in the matter, and the Commits
sioners can either accept or reject their report.
Either Mr.. Riggs or his neighbOrs have the
right of appeal to the Circuit Court from the
final decision of the Highways Commissioners
