REGISTER YOUR
XMAS PACKAGES
Security and Record of
Delivery Obtained.

Mindful of the rush of Christmas
packages in the near future, Post
master Mitchell desires to urge upoT
shippers the plan of registering val
liable packages.
In the rush incident to such al
expansion as is usual during the week
or two before Christmas, the chances
for package getting misplaced arc
of course enhanced. Each Christmas
at all postoffices there are complaints
of packages which in some way fail
ed to reach those for whom they were
intended In some instances the
packages have merely been delayed by
the heavy mails, while in others some
more serious accident has befallen
the shipment.
For all registered packages the
Government becomes liable, and if
one should fail to arrive a search
would easily locate the missing pack
age, or if really lost, the sender would
be reimbursed
The registry fee is only cents, and
by paying this small charge the
sender can feel at ease as to the eff
feet of the rush season. Then the re-
turn receipt is a record that the pres
ent arrived safely and was received
by the cOnsignee.

FRANCES BIRTH
RATE LOWEST

PARIS, Dec. "a decreased birth
rate in France in 1906, the lowest in
fact that her history records, is
shown by statistics just published by
the official journal of the Republic.
Recent years have been marked by
a steady decrease line in the number
of births. The average yearly rate
from 1896 was 839,843 In 1906 the
births fell to S06,S47. The deaths
during the year aggregated 7O8,196.
Dr. Jacques Bertillion, chief Stats
tician of Paris, takes a pessimistic
view of these figuree. He points out
that, whereas all of Frances neigh
bors yearly increase in popu' alton,
Frances population is at a standstill.
Soon, he thinks, the tide Of her popu-
lation may fall backward 1T is not
alone our political and military pow
er," Dr. Bertillion writes mournfully,
that is menaced by this lamentable
low birth rate; it is more than that
our economic power and the intellec-
tual and moral influence of France
that is grayely imperiled."

street wear is the high button tan
boot. Gray or green boots to match
the suit are very smart for afternoon
street wear, or boots with colored
tops that match either the gown or
hat.
Some of the evening slippers are
being hand embroidered in silk span
giles and small jewels. They are COW
cred with lace and are hand painted
in beautiful colors. The embroidery
seen in the gown is often brought
out to the same effect in the slippers
Tailored shirt waists of madras in
white or colors are to be worn this
winter with tailored street suits
The cuffs on these waists are usually
plain, made to fasten together with
link buttons.
Stripes and checks are still much
in evidence, but the self-colored ma
terials are in the front because they
may be decorated with embroidery and
braiding, and this is a very important
feature of the season.
Gloves for evening year are hand
embroidered and inset with dyed
laces. The embroidery is done in fine
beads of some pale shade. Turquoise
and pink are especially lovely on
white gloves.
Lots of jewelry are shown with the
stones matching and consist of a
necklace, earrings, bracelet, ring,
barette for the hair and a belt
buckle set with one immense stone.
Topaz and Chinese jade are the most
popular stones used in these sets.

An Attractive Calendar

BY far the most attractive calendar
that has been brought to our no
tice this year is issued by the Pabst
Brewing Co, in connection with their
popular malt extract, sold and known
everywhere under the name of Pabst
Extract, the "Best" Tonic. Like
the preparation it represents, this
charming calendar-of exquisite and
appealing beauty-stands out in con-
trast and is exceptionally unique
among art calendars for 1908.
The Pabst Extract Jewel Calen-
dar, as it is called, rich in color, ex-
elusive in design and strong in SEN
timent, appeals to both men and wo-
men and is beautiful as well as edu-
cational 1t portrays a very hand
some woman standing between two
rich red portiers in such a position
that the sun from the back throws
rays of light across her shoulders
and face, while the artistic arrange
ment and rich cooring of the drap-
cries in which she is partly enshroud-
ed produces an effect that is hard to
imagine without seeing the original.
This beautiful work of art derives
it's name. the Pabst Extract Jewel
Calendar, from the unique arrange
ment of the calendar pads, which por-
tray the birthstones and their signi-
ficance for each month of the year.
This effect greatly enhances the beau
ty of the calendar, giving it original
ity and sentiment at once most in
teresting and pleasing.
A copy Of the calendar, Z X &c in
ches. may be obtained by mailing ten
cents in stamps or coin to Pabst
Extract Dept, 91S Chestnut St, Mil

A NEGRO DRAUGHTSMAN.
Petition to Secretary Cortelyou For His
Removal

Nearly all the draughtsmen employed
in the office of the supervising architect Of
the treasury have signed a petition to
Secretary Cortelyou, asking that a negro
draughtsman working alongside of them
be removed or changed to some other gov
eminent position. The white architects,
1t is stated, have been thinking the matter
over for some time and they have talked
so much among themselves as to Directing
to the negro draughtsman that a strong
feeling has been aroused. One man, a
Virginian has gone so far as to resign his
position.
The Office of the supervising architect is
crowded with work, and every effort has
been made to get competent draughtsmen
This failed. and Mr. Taylor. the supervis-
ing architect. turned to the civil service
commission, which certified list. from
which selections were made. The colored
man was in the number and he was an
pointed.
II is not known whether Secretary Cor
tnlyou has presented the matter to the
President but it is known that he has
no idea of stirring the matter up. The
probability is that the petition from the
white architects will be forgotten by the
diplomatic Secretary, which means that
the negro will remain where he is. unless
personal or other reasons result In his
retirement.

BIG FIRE IN ELIZABETH
NORTH CAROLINA CITY VISITED
BY $4oo, 900 BLAZE.

ELIZABETH CITY, N. c., March GA
fire of unknown origin which started here
at a late hour last night resulted in an es-
timated loss Of between 100000 and $45OOOO
in property. 1t was thought that the fire.
which originated in the large brick building
occupied by the Olive grocery On the west
side of Poindexter street and which was
completely destroyed, was under control
but it started again at an early hour today
with renewed vigor and spread rapidly. The
establishments of Messrs. Broughton and
Etheridge, H. H. Lavenstein. L. S. Gordon,
B. T. Harris. Joseph Eisenberg, L. Laven-
stein, Lavenstein Brothers, T. w. Williams
and c. A. Johnson were totally destroyed.
The ESTABLISHING mt Of the D. M. Jones
Company, one Of the largest wholesale and
retail hardware concerns in the state, was
damaged to the extent of about $25, 600, with
small insurance. 1t is estimated that the
total loss to the stocks of the various es-
adjustments is about s25O,OOO and on the
buildings about $4,000 to 500, 900.

THE EDDY CONVENTION
RUMORS CURRENT IN BOSTON
OVER STEPS IN SUIT.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
BOSTON, Mass, March H.-Both in and
out Of Christian Science circles In this city
rumors are current bearing upon the con-
tempIated steps to be taken regarding the
suit brought by the relatives of Mary
Baker G. Eddy, to which an answer must
be filed in Concord, n H., on April 2. The
position that the trustees Of the First
Church of Christian Science will assume
at that time is the subject of cohsidera BILE
conjecture. Not one of the defendant trus-
tees in this city will say just what posi-.
ton will be taken, though it is known that
they have discussed the matter upon sew
eral occasions with Samuel J. Elder, who
is the attorney for the church.
The Rev. Irving c. Tomlinson, head of
the Christian Science lecture bureau, and
Prof. Herman S. Herring, first reader of the
Concord Church, have engaged Attorney
General Edward c. Eastman of Exeter ia
represent them in the case. The legal line
up for the defense up to the present time
eral Frank E. Streeter. the personal coun-
sci of Mrs. Eddy, and Mr. Eastman.
On the plaintiffs side are William E.
Chandler, former United States senator:
John w. Kelly of Portsmouth, and the firm
Of Howe & Marlin and Frederick w. Pea
body of Boston. Mr.. Peabody said today
that he would not be surprised If General
Streeter, for the defense, in filing his an
swer at Concord. pointed to the fact that
Peabody himself had been an antagonist
of Christian Science for years and had
lectured against the cult. In his answer it
is also thought that General Streeter will
contend that the suit is not brought in
reality by George w. Glover and his other
relatives. but by a newspaper, which has
been engaged in a controversy for some
time with Scientists. and which many as
sert is furnishing the funds for carrying on
the suit.

BROWNSVILLE RESERVATION.
Portion Turned Over to Agricultural
DEPARTMENT for Experiments.

Acting Secretary Oliver today made an
order turning over to the Department OF
Agricultural strip of the Fort Brown mill
tary reservation, at Brownsville. Texas.
800 feet in width and 3. 400 feet in length
living along the northern boundary OF the
reservation. This includes what Is known
as the old vegetable garden and portion
of the adjacent pasture land. The strip ID
parallel to the existing road ana eXtenus
from the northeast boundary to the south
west boundary of the reservation. The
existing structures on the tract are also
turned over to the AGRICULTURAL Depart
nnent. The transfer is subject to the con-
dition that the premises shall be restored
to the War Department on ten days no
tice in case an emergency arises requiring
the reoccupation Of the land by the War
Department.
This particular strip is given in Heu Of
a reservation transferred on the I'd instant.
the Agricultural Department having found
that the latter is too close to the river and
too marshy. The purpose of the Agricul-
tural Department is to experiment with
the cultivation of a certain kind of fine long
fiber Japanese grass or small reed, which
is consumed in great quantities by the max
ers of rugs and mats. If the experiment Is
successful 1t is believed that new and i'm
portant industry will be developed.
The War Department has received a prop
osition from a real estate firm to lease the
Fort Brown reservation, but apparently
would prefer TO turn the whole tract over
to the Agricultural Department if the lat
ter can make use of 1t, for Acting Secretary
Oliver writes that this proposal is post
poned until the extent of the Agricultural
Departments occupation Is finally deter
mined" So the indications are that this
famous old post, which has long been a
source of trouble to the War Department
beginning with protracted disputes about
title to the lands comprised and winding up
In the Brownsville affair: will soon cease
to be under the control of the department
1t seems settled that>no more United States
troops will be stationed at Brownsville ex-
cept In the unlooked-for event of trouble
with Mexico.

W AR VIRTUALLY OVER
SALVADOR EXPRESSES A DESIRE
FOR PEACE.
Honduras Not Strong Enough to Con-
tinue the War Without
Her Ally.

Mr.. Creel, the Mexican ambassador to-
day confirmed the press dispatches of this
morning that Salvador has expressed a
desire for peace in Central America and Is
anxious to have Mexico exert it's good in
fluence in ending the war involving Sal
Vador, Honduras and Nicaragua.
The desire of Salvador for peace is re-
garded by diplomatists as an indication
that the war is practically ended, because
Honduras is not strong enough to continue
1t single-handed. This action Of Salvador
will doubtless prevent Guatemala or Costa
Rica from taking any part in the support
of Honduras. Mr.. Creel had a conference
with Mr.. Corea, the Nicaraguan minister,
today. and probably will confer tomorrow
with Secretary Root as to how Mexico and
the United States can best exert their
efforts to restore peace.
Tried to Seize Ships.
MOBILE. Ala, March pa report was
brought to Mobile from Trujillo. Spanish
Honduras. by way of Puerto Cortez that
an attempt had been made by the Hondu-
ran army to seize the Norwegian steamer
Suldal and an American schooner at the
first named place for the purpose of using
them as troopships, but the presence of the
American warships prevented it.

BLOW TO TAFT.
Ohio Politicians are Discussing Situa-

special Dispstch To The Star.
COLUMBUS. Ohio. March 2T.-The state
ment of Senator Foraker in Washington
last night is taken as blow at the Taft
presidential boom. and was variously COM
mented upon among politicians In this city
today. II is pointed out that Foraker caves
II in doubt whether or not he Is a candidate
tor the presidential nomination He does
not even say he wants the senatorship
again. The Taft followers here say that
:hey are eager and willing for a direct
primary, without any ifs or lands" aaout
II. and that they will force that issue to the
front at the Dayton convention with Rep
resentative Theodore Burton OF Cleveland
leading in the fight.
1t is not believed here that Secretary
.aft will go on the stump in Ohio with Sem
ator Foraker to discuss the issues. 1t is
said. however. that Mr.. Burton may take
up the senator's challenge for debate on
the issues. Mr.. Burton by many is be-
leved To be in training for the seat now
occupied by Senator Foraker. He is an
aNowed Taft man, and is now with Secre-
tary Fan on the trip to Panama
