SHORT.POSTACE:.
Cost About Sl0 to Forward Them to
 Their Destination.

Hartford. Jan 16.--Silas Chapman has received many pleasant words by letter and otherwise for his thought full work in causing Christmas pack ages held in the postoffice for shortage of stamps to be forwarded to the ad- dresses. One of the congratulations came from a neighbOrhoOd clergyman. who remarked that none but stamp crank would have thought of it. X servant girl sent word to him that quite likely one of the packages was sent by her. Anyhow" she said. s.tell him he's good man and I'll pray for him." The first package weighed gave evidence that it's sender must nave had in mind beating the depart. mcnt. as even an ignoramus must have known that the stamps affixed would not fill the bill. Fifteen cents in stamps were placed on it. The weight called for Sl.35. The total ex- pense of forwarding the packages was triae less than SID. and it is good guessing that the kifdness resulted in hundreds of dollars worth of happi ness--if that uncertain commodity can he measured in dollars and cents. h. cidentally Mir Chspman thought 1t would have been an excellent thing for the postoffice people to have ad- vertised the held over packages.
 Tine incident brings to mind scheme pursued for some time hy the late s. !. RestoY He originated bright red paster containing an adver- iisemcnt of his business. announcing also that the accompanying letter was held for postage and was forwarded by him. He caiiei regularly at inter vais for the holdovers and placed his little red paster on them. Naturally the party receiving it became his busi- ness friend at once.
 \ rcent postage incident is worth mentioning. The wife of a well known truck gardener at the north end de sired to send a small package of seeds to a relative in Denmark. ft was one of the little packages on sale at the seed stores fl season for , or 10 cents Tho postal clerk weighed it. inquired it's contents. and informed her that it would cost 9J cents to forward it, She settled. since she had gone so far In the matter. hut she declares that here after her foreign friends will % with out seeds so far as she is concerned.

 Senator the Only Certainty. ALBANY. \. T.. Jan. 16.-Thc re- election of Chauncey NJ. Depew of New York as United States senator appears to be the only certainty of the coming week in the legislature. which opens here today the third week of it's one hundred and twenty eighth session.
 There are few indications yet of the legislative programme of the majority, and with the exception of tho repeal Of the state tax on the surplus and un- divided profits of savings, banks bills are yet to be introduced to carry out the plans and recommendations of Gov ernor Higgins and the Republican or ganization.
 The 1000 ton barge canal proposi- tion may have an airing pro and con- tra in the expected debate over the re- solution of Senator Bracket of Sara toga, calling upon the attorney general for an opinion as to whether the canals are not "navigable waters" under fed eral jurisdiction and whether the barge canal act of 1908 does not necessitate obstruction of such waters in a manner prohibited by federal statute. Senator Bracket protests that his resolution is neither friendly nor inimical to the canal enlargement scheme, but is mere ly in the line of reasonable precautiOn at the outset of stupendous state en- terprise,
