Women In Postal Service

One of the signs of growth in our
postal system appears in the employ
ment of women. Up to 1862 women
had never been employed in the ser:
vice. Then they were admitted to the
dead-letter oh1ce-eight of them. Now
of the 1,195 employees in the depart
ment in Washington 800 are women.
and there are in the whole country
27,600 women employed, generally in
the stamp delivery or money order
offices, and receiving salaries running
from $500 to $500 year.

those which are based upon the
more enduring principles, such
as the desire for goodness and
the wish to do Gods will.

ALL DIFFERENCES

TO BUILD FINE PLANT
Company Agrees to Pay All Expenses Incurred in Legal >nits, Engineer. Etc.-Local Citizens RetMrn From Capital.
Capital.

The Pine Biaf9ars who went to Lit tie Rock yesterday U confer With Edward Fladd, the expert eng:neer from St. Louis, in the interests of this city and the Pine Bluff Light and Wat CT company, returned last night, An agreement was reached between the representatives Of the city and the water company. which is thought -o be satisfactory to all parties concerned.
 MT. Fladd, who was appointed by Judge TrieDer of the Federal court at Little Rock recently to adjust the differences betNen the city of Pine Bluff and the Pine Bluff Light and Water company, made a report as was expected. He recommended the size of and places for the location Of the water mains over the part of the city not reached at this time by the water company. He also recommend ed the number of wells and pumps, which he thought adequate to supply the needs of this city. Just the num- Der of pumps he recommended is not known, but it is understood that he recommended a plant with three pumps.
 However the city had already agreed with the water company to allow them to build a plant with only two pumps, and as this had been arranged satis factorily to all parties concerned, the awater company will be allowed to erect the plant with only two pumps. but in order to counterbalance any diff ference this would make in the daily supply of water for the city, they fur ther agreed to increase the size of the present reservoir one-half million gallons. The present size of the res eryoir was the size of the one recom- mended by Mr. Fladd, so that in the language of the day the city and the water company are friends" The reason for this change was that the court thought that this last arrange ment would give better service and fire protection to Pine Bluff.
 It was agreed that the water com pany are to pay the costs Of the suit, including the fee of the engineer, as we'll as all other expenses.
