PRESENT PLAN IS TO STAMP THE WEATHEh FORECAST ON EVERY LETTER LEAVING THE POST OFFICE DURING THE DAY.

Washington, July 7-(Special) )-Several plans have recently been submitted to the postoffice department for advising patrons of the rural delivery service of weather predictions One of these plans proposes that the forecasts of the weather bureau be printed on the back of mail matter delivered by rural carriers in conjunction with the back stamp used in the postof- fees. The method was first suggested sev- eral years ago and was then discarded as impracticable.
 One of the principal objections to its adoption in the rural free delivery service would be the fact that, on an average, not more than one-third of the patrons of rural free delivery are regularly In re- ceipt of daily mail by rural carriers; hence only that number would be advised Of the weather predictions, and some patrons would probably not have the benefits Of the predictions more than one day in week. Besides by the use of this method the information conveyed would neeessari- ly have to be extremely brief and meaSre in order to take up the least possible space in the device used in connection with the back stamp. Furthermore, it would entail large expense in providing postmasters with new back stamps with removable type suited for the purpose. At the same time it is not improbable that before a great while some such system wlil be inaugurated.
 To facilitate the dissemination of daily predictions of the weather bureau the postmaster general under date of May l3, 1895, Issued an announcement to post masters advising them that the Secretary

 In discussing his candidacy yesterday, MT. Barbour said:
 My object in making the race for the legislature from Jefferson county is to secure if possible for the people of this county a more general representation. l have no fight tofmake on any man in the race but believe that the business interests should be represented and be- lieve that I can be of some value to di- versif1ed interests if elected to the place.
 Jefferson county is possibly the most important political division of the state, with greater range of business interests and these interests should be represented.
 If elected I shall do all in my power for every interest and every man In the county"

DELAY WAS CAUSED
 BY HALE'S INTERFERENCE

Washington, July 7.-(Speeial.)-It Is
 now said that the delay of some six hours in adjournment was not due to the incompetency of the government printing office, but rather to Senator Hale of Maine. who took charge of the appropria- ton bills in the absence of Senator Alll- son. who was compelled to leave Wash ington owing to i'll health. Senator Ali son is a master hand in placing the finishing touches upon legislation. He has had long years of experience in just this kind of work and knew exactly how tc direct the clerks under him so that things would move like clock-work. It requires no mean order of executive abil- ity to handle such complication of afr fairs so skilfully and expeditiously that

 Little by little their flesh decreases un- til they become, in some instances, mere skeletons.
 A medicine that will remove the ca- tarrh and thus restore the digestive or gans to their natural activity is the cor rect remedy for these cases.
 A great many people who have lost flesh for months, on beginning to take Peruna. find their flesh returning.

Washington, July 7.-(Special)-Tte problem of controlling the ravages of the cotton boil weevil in the United States Is of such moment that it is being studied by the department of agriculture from a number of different standpoints. One of these is the relation of birds to the weevl. Accurate information as to the value of our native birds as destroyers of this pest is of considerable importance to the cotton growers, but such information can be ob- tained only by means of careful observa- ton in the field, supplemented by study of the stomach contents of the birds.

Postmasters were directed to furnish ru- ral carriers with sufficient number of copies of the daily forecasts to supply each of their fatrons and these fore casts are at the present time being sup nlied wherever desired.

Congress as a whole never before quite realized that a very intricate machine was working upon ball bearings. It was only until sand got thrown into the works that Congress discovered there was any machinery at all. It Is declared that on this point the government print ing office will be relieved from blame by the investigation. The inexperience of Senator Hale and Representative Taw- ney is made the basis of the irritating de- lay. Of course, the government printing office officials won't say anything like this. It would ,retty nearly cost them their official positions The office, how ever, just at present seems to have other troubles on it's hands. The Record of the last days proceedings had been com pleted when it was found that several im- portant matters had been omitted and the edition had to be called in.

EXPERTS EXAMINE BIRDS
 STOMACHS FOR WEEVlLS

Birds may be observed picking insects fro9S cotton plants but it does not follow that the insects are boil weevils; nor is the statement that boil weevils have been found in the stomach of birds, if made by persons unaccustomed to the Identification of insects. to be accepted as conclusive. Insect remains in a birds stomach are nearly always in a more or less in disintegrated condition, so that identifi- cation of the species is difficult and re- quires the services of specialist.
 The department has recently given much attention to the bird feature of boil weevil ravages, and has announced the long list of species of birds which have been ascertained to feed on the weevil.

Montgomery, July 7.-(Speeial.)-Dr. W, II. Sanders, state health officer, has not fully informed himself on the new quar- antine law of Congress, but Is of the opinion it will have very little effect on the means of control of the health condi- tons in Alabama. In fact, he says, the new law applies almost wholly to the maritime situation and does not reach out Into the interior specially save to re- affirm and make stronger the provision in the old law of 1893 under which tho government could take hold of an cpl demlo in state and handle 1t when the officials of the state did not meet the sit- uation themselves.
 It is certain that the state will take care of It's own protection In case of an epl- demic, The marine hospital service might take hold of any of the stations of the south, but the right to do 80 would have to be ceded by the state. There Is bill before the Louisiana senate now which seeks to have the Louisiana station turn ed over to the marine hospital service, but, Dr. Sanders says, 1t is not likely to pass The Louisiana board Is well equip ped to meet the health demands thls year and the people do not care to have any others assume the administration of 1t

There is much less danger or importation at New Orleans than through marine hospital ports.

To get in through the other ports mentioned he must have been out from Cuba as much as five days any way.
