TWO SIGNIFICANT INCIDENTS.
President Roosevelt Pays Proper
Postage and Promotes Peace.

Dr.. las. H. Carlisle in S. c. Advocate.
Two incidents have taken place
lately that were gratifying 10 those
who read them in our papers. A let
ter directed to President Roosevelt
was detained in a post office for lack
Of a. stamp. Due notice was given
him, at the White House: and he at
once sent it. and received his letter.
That was little. commonplace at
fair, but it is full OF meaning. Our
president is law-abiding citizen.
Great relief was felt all over the
world when it was stated that Presl-
deut Roosevelt had made Known to
the two great warning nations OF Eu-
rope and Asia that he would gladly
open he way for them to consider
the question OF speedy, honorable
peace. It has been most gratifying
that ms delicate suggestion was prop
crly received This was not because
the offer was made by gallant SOL
die, OF a popular author, or an ar
dcnt bear hunser. The white flag OF
truce was raised by the president Of

The -api,!ity with which the Japan
csc established telephone communi-
cation was remarkable Lines were
laid we'll in advance OF he main body
Of troops. even when the army was
advancing BY forced marches and per-
feet connection was maintained at all
times between the different divisions
Wherever conditions permitted the
reels OF wire and the Instruments were
carried in wagons The line was laid
on the ground as rapidly as horse
drawn vehicles could advance. Ii the
line 50 laid was 10 become permanent
a detail followed the wagon at leisure
and attached the wire to trees or has
tily erected supports.
For "ilying lines" or lines within
the zone OF action. which connected
the commanders headquarters with
the various divisions on the firing
line, The detail following the reel wag
on merely laid the wire in protected
places on the ground where it was
least likely to be disturbed. These
lines were taken up, moved, or aban-
doned as occasion demanded. Where
the nature of the country or other
conditions rendered the advance of
wagon impossible or ineNpedient, the
line was advanced by men carrying
coils of wire on their shoulders.
Each division was kept in touch
with and under the supervision Of the
general staff by means OF telephone
communication. From the sub-divis-
ions of each portion Of the army tele-
phone lines were run to a portable
switchboard, and from the various
switchboards trunk lines were run to
Headquarters several miles to the rear.
Thus the parts of each portion of the
army were made to correspond with
the subscribers OF telephone sub-sta-
ton in large city, the headquarters
being analogous to the central sta
ton to which all the subsidiary sta
tions are connected by trunk lines.
The Japanese general thus had COM
plete control of his entire army and
could work his forces to the best ad-
vantage at ali times and under all
circumstances; the movements so dl-
rected were at the same time quick
and accurate. Moreover, for these
reasons it was possible to use much
thinner line than ever handled previ-
.ously, and also to reverse the usual
order OF procedure, namely, to extend
and strengthen the Hanks of the army
at the expense Of the centre instead
of depending. as heretofore, upon the
centre to help out the flanks in cases
Of emergency. He was able at all
times to strike a blow at any weak
spot that developed itself in the Rus
sian line on account of the fact that
he was instantly informed of such
weakness by telephone, and because
bv the same means he could irnmedi-
ately give orders for the necessary
attacks.

Prominent White Woman Acts AS
Negro's Clerk.


New York American.
Miss Ida Smalley, daughter OF Geo.
w. Snlalley, New York correspondent
of the London Times, yesterday began
her duties as stenographer for Charles
w. Anderson, the new negro collector
of the Second Internal Revenue Dis
trict.
1t was busy day for Nj. Anderson,
because he had just taken charge of
his office and was getting the wheels
in working order. His new steno-
grapher reached the office sharply at
O o'clock and at once entered upon
her work.
For the first hour Miss Smalley
took dictation from Mr.. Anderson
personally. She is rapid shorthand
writer and in time accumulated quite
a batch of letters. Throughout the
remainder of the business day that
ended at P. NJ. she was kept busy
at business correspondence.
Mr.. Anderson expressed his salts
faction with his new employee and
Miss Smalley was also pleased with
her position.
Mr.. Andersons Offices are at No.
1-o N,scar street He has a suite OF
eight rooms. and his private room is
at the end of the hallway on the Sec
ond floor. 1t is there that he and
Miss Smalley conduct all the COL
lectors correspondence.
The salary that Miss Smalley re-
ceives is ST 200 per year, and 1t was
this liberal pay, for a stenograhper'
that influenced her to accept the po-
sirion. It is said that considerable
influence was exerted to get her the
post. but this Mr.. Anderson denies.
Miss Smalley was appointed IN the
REGULAR manner" he said. "She ac-
cepted the position, and I know OF no
one who would refuse to accept a po-
1 s;tion under the United States gov
ernment."
The Smalley family is now some
what scattered. Miss Smalley lives
with her mother, Mrs. Geo. w. Small
lev at No. 125 West Seventy-thlrd
street. With them are two other chill
dren. Emerson and Miss Evelyn. 1t
is a modest residence which they
have occupied for more than a year
George w. Smalley, the famous cor
respondent, lives at the Hotel Lor'
raine. at No. East Forty-fifth street
but he left yesterday for Europe. II
is said that he will spend the summer
in Hamburg. He retains his splendlc
apartments in the Lorraine. He also
has rooms at the Metropolitan club
and keeps apartments for his own use
in Washington. His income is salt
to be considerably more than SI5,oot
