INCREASE FOR CARRIER.
Mail DeIiverers on Longest Rural
Routes to Get 5000.

Washington, D. c., March 21.-Un-
der the recent act of congress max
ing appropriations for the postal SER
vice for the ensuing fiscal year, the
postmaster general may fix the salar-
les of carriers in the rural delivery
service at a rate not exceeding 5000
per annum after July l, 1907. The
highest rate now paid under the exist
ing law is $72O per annum. The re-
adjustment of salaries under the new
law has. been fully determined, but
it is proposed to allow the maximum
rate, 5000, to all carriers on routes
twenty-four or more miles in length
as shown by the records of the depart
ment. This will give approximately
22,S00, or about per cent of the car
riers an advance in salary of $3.50 pei
annum.
Other Carriers Benefited.
A substantial increase in pay for the
ether carriers is contemplated, but. the
chief benefciaries of the new law vii
be those serving the longer routes up
on whom the greater hardships of the
services fall. The carriers on the
shorter routes, ranging from twelve
to fourteen and from fourteen to six
teen miles, now receive s504 and $54l
per annum, respectively, being proper
tionately better paid than the carriers
on routes of twenty or more miles
The pay Of substitute rural varrier'
will also be increased in many cases
This advance in pay for the carrier
and substitutes, it is estimated, will
result in an approximate increase 0
IS 100000 in the cost of the rural de
livery service.

he had a narrow escape to save his
horses. When he saw them being
knocked in every direction, he
said by putting a chair over his

Clay Harvey, Sr., said nothing
was left on his farm but rag weeds
and but few of them. The hail
killed some shoats for him and
Leonard Nicely, also, that would
weigh from 10 to 80 pounds. A
telephone message from the Vim
cent and Needmore neighborhood
cave an account of the hail falling
as large as ones arm and from
six to eight inches long. Our old
est citizens say that they never
saw anything to equal the storm.
