MAIL CARRIERS
The Following Article Concerning
Rural Mail Carriers Will Be
Of Interest to Many

The regulations prescribed by tne
postmaster general under which
merchandise may be carried for hire
by the carriers on request OF patrons
limits such merchandise to unmail-
able matter. Under these regula-
tions carriers are permitted to carry
bread, meat and perishable food
stuffs of all kinds, and any kind of
merchandise in packages weighing
in excess OF four pounds. They are
also permitted to carry medicines,
where the same are not SO packed as
to be admissible to the mails. No
doubt difficulty is often experienced
in determining in this connection
just what is mailable or unavailable
matter. The position taken by the
department is that postmaster should
not accept for delivery outside of the
mails for hire any matter which
should be presented at the postoffice
for mailing. In many instances it is
apparent to you that articles pre-
sented which are unavailable in the
condition in which they are offered
for transmission by the carrier would
with simple preparation be classed
as mailable. In fixing the mailabil-
ity of such articles the fact that the
article or package is not properly
prepared for mailing is not to be
considered as the principal factor,
but if it is such an article or paokae g
as is ordinarily admitted to the mails
and only lacks simple preparation,
such as wrapping and addressing,
then it must be classed as mailable
matter requiring postage; but if I
requires special preparation to rem
der it mailable. as in the case OF
liquids, the nature Of which requires
special packing, to render it admiss-
IDLE to the mails, then such matter
in SO far as the rural delivery OF
mails is concerned, may be classed
as unavailable and carried by rural
carriers outside of the mails for hire.
This Interpretation of mailable mat
ter, it should be understood, applies
only to matter for local delivery by
rural carriers
Where number of articles in one
package are to be delivered by a
rural carrier on the order of pat.
ron, and such articles consist OF
mailable and unavailable matter and
weigh in the aggregate more than
four pounds, such package can be
delivered outside the mails as ex.
press matter for hire for or to the
patron, provided they are dispatch.
ed at the same time and are all re.
ceived from one person or firm to be
delivered all to some one person or
firm: but number of packages Of
mailable and unavailable matter
weighing in the aggregate more thar
four pounds and received from ono
or several merchants for several m.
raj patrons, cannot be carried by
rural carriers as express matter, but
those articles of mailable matter in.
tended for delivery to one person,
weighing four pounds or under
must be segregated from the un.
mailable matter and postage re-
quired for delivery by rural carrier

THE LAW
Pure Food Law Must be Obeyed by
Merchants Regardless of C0nse-

or PreServatives Allowed

Mr.. Tate who is explaining the pro.
Visions of the law to the business men
of this part of the state, says: There
are many things that will have to be
taken care of by the retailer or local
merchant. Among other things all
brick Goldfish must be discarded from
the shelves because of the presence of
preservatives therein. French peas
will also have to be discontinued. The
dealers can ship the peas back but the
Goldfish will have to be thrown out.
Bulk oysters too comes under the ban
and they must not be sold from the
pail because they are preserved with
foreign ingredients. All vinegars on
hand must be labeled and show the
formula by which they are made, as
there are very few vinegars now on the
market perfectly pure. 1t is now
compulsory that the butchers tell the
cosumer just what he is buying. The
liquid freeze and other preservatives
for meat is absolutely prohibited.

Life Story Criminal Romance.
Barrington's life history reads like a
criminal romance, with one climax fol-
lowing closely upon another. We first
hear OF him as a seven-year boy
in Tunbridge Wells, England, setting
fire TO the commons. He was thought
900 young to merit punishment for the
offence. He first broke into prison at
the age Of ten years, when, on July z,
1870, he was sentenced to Ave years
and ten days In the reformatory for
embezzlement. In the summer OF 1876,
when he was is years old, he was re-
leased from the Juvenile prison, but
on September z Of the same year
he was sentenced to IL months i'm
prisonment for stealing his masters
warch. BY good behavior he got out
on three-fourths time, but before the
year was out he was In trouble again.
On July 10, 1876, at the Maidstone as
sizes. he was sentenced to ten years.
penal servitude for burglary. After
serving four years Of his term he pro-
cured his release upon forged pardon
papers.

and tried to get his deesrted wife to
take him in. But one experience was
enough for her, and she turned deaf

He was employed for brief period
as coachman In New York. but soon
driftad to Jersey City, and from there
to Philadelphia, where. in December.
1902, he married wealthy young wo-
man. Her name has never been given
to the public on account Of the promi-
nencc of her family. Elaborate prep
arations were made for the wedding,
and she wore a $500 trousseau when
the ceremony was performed. He lured
her on to Cincinnati. where he desert
ed and got away with her trunks, con.
tanning most Of her costly wedding
outfit. Some of her clothing was found
In his trunks, which were held by the

Clayton jail within the shadow of the
gallows, has always been the same &C
complished liar-admitting one lie
while inventing another, and always
denying that he was George Frederick
Barton, though the Bertilion pictures
identify him positively. He seemed to
care moro for the appearance Of his
dres, than for his liberty. For an hour
he would refuse to be photographed,
and then willingly consent to pose for
a picture for the price Of shave.
In planning his crimes he has always
shown flash of cieverness, but he was
such bungler at concealing them that
the services of Sherlock Holmes were
not needed to fasten them upon him.
