Some Of the Tanglss Uncle Sans
Officials Have TO Tackle.


Uncle Sam is the most faithful
servant in the world, and, moreover,
he is the cheapest. You give him
2 cents and letter and he will de-
liver it from New York to San Fran
cisco, from Maine to Florida OF
from Buffalo to New Orleans. He
will carry your business communi-
cation OF your love letter 5000
miles and deliver it safely to its des-
tination for less than it would cost
you to send a district messenger boy
around the corner for couple Of
cigars. While it is true that thou
sands of letters yearly find their
way to the dead letter Office, there
to remain buried for all time, it is
equally true that many thousands
of others that should 60 to the dead
letter office because of insufficient
and improper addresses are deliver
ed by the intelligent carrier. Let
tiers from foreign countries to peo-
pie only a short time in America
cause the most trouble to Uncle
Sam. Very few foreigners have any
idea of the geographical divisions Of
the United States, and some of the
addresses are amusing. One letter
from a German city was addressed
to father or brother in America
at Michigan, Ohio" 1t went to
the dead letter office. A letter
was recently received at the New
York postohice from Italy address
ed to "Giuseppe Fernando, United
States" One of the carriers in the
italian district remembered that he
had a family named Fernando on
his route. They were, moreover, of
the more intelligent class of Ital-
ians, who frequently received mail,
and he took the letter to them. An
tonic Fernando remembered that
he had a cousin Giuseppe, who had
recently moved to this country. He
also remembered that this cousin
had gone on to Buffalo. To the
Queen City of the Lakes, then, the
letter was forwarded and eventual
ly found its way to the addressee,
who was living in that city with
well known Italian family.
Instances in which peculiar ad-
dresses have been deciphered and
almost impossible directions follow
ed might be quoted without num-
Der. A letter was received at the
postoffice in large city-we will
say Boston-ewhich was addressed
as follows:
John Harris.
Around the Corner,
Depot,
Boston.
The letter carrier found a John
Harris around the corner from the
Union station, and the letter was
for him.

international reputation. The fun de-

by Mr. Dockstader, who has COLLECTED a
number of songs that have been met
with roars of laughter in every city In
which he has appeared. His fine line
of unctious humor is just as appealing
as ever. Neil O'Brien will sing one Of

One of the most unique features Of
Lew Dockstaders Ministries, which at
traction will be seen at the Hyperion
on Monday evening, July %, will be a
West Point scene showing the marches,
drills and manoeuvres Of the cadets,
The ordinary stage march or drill Is
usually lame affair with very little
merit and almost invariably ridiculous
t5 anyone with knowledge Of milf
tary matters The West Point sketch,
however, has been the subject of much
thought and study by its producer, and
the actual manoeuvres used by the
young soldier are carried out faithful
ly in the stage presentation. Much at
tention has been paid 10 the costuming
of this particular part Of the entertain
ment and those who like to see perfect
stage craft have treat in store for
them. Thirty-two members of the COM
pany are used in the drill and the ac-
coutrements, such a swords, guns, etc,
are entirely new.

Iple of NewsHaven for the management

strel players to appear at that play
house on Monday evening, July o. Mr..
Dockstader has made it one of his In
variable rules to bring with him every
season a show that Is absolutely new In
every particular. He appears before
the public every season playing about
forty-eight weeks and when the end
of the route Is reached the result is al
ways the same Throw away every
thing in the scenic line and place the
orders for an absolutely new produc-
tion.
Ideas are what Mr.. Dockstader Is
constantly seeking and sometimes 1t
takes several years to develop a
thought that may result in some strk-
ing new stake illusion or setting that
will crafty not only the producer but
the public as well.
This season Mr.. Dockstader has a
speciality that has been the cause Of
universal comment everywhere he has
appeared. 1t is largely political with
the scene laid in washington and COW
ers all the points that arise from day
to day in the national administration
