The postoffie authorities have de-
cided to teach careless people who
open the mail OF others lesson by
making them liable to u heavy fine.
Hereafter anyone who opens an
others letters or even newspapers
is liable to fine OF $500. Post
masters frequently make mistakes in
placing the wrong mail in box, and
it is very prObable that patrons Of
the postoffice often rip open letters
and papers and do not discover that
they have been wrongly placed in
their boxes until after the envelopes
or wrappers have been broken. On
the other hand many people will
break open package or letter when
they are aware that It has been mis-
sent. The authorities are after
the latter class. A special effort
will be made in all postofiices to
catch those who wronXfully open
another's mail, and hereafter when
u man does tear open another man s
mail. he must state why he opened
the mail, whether by accident or de-
sign, and sign bis name on the letter
or package. The postoffie authori-
ties will make the penalty apply to
newspapers as well as to letters.
