CHOICE MISCELLANY
stamps as Detectives.

The new series postage stamps to
be issued by the United States this
year will be great departure from the
stamps TO which letter writers are ae-
customed Hitherto similar stamps
have been used all over the country,
and there has been no means Of deter
mining from what Office they have
been sold TO consumers. All tI.s Will
be changed under the new system. and
every pOstOfiice of the land Will receive
due credit for the amount of postage
stamps which 1t sells. which furnishes
the only basis upon which the business
of the Office can Ge estimated. The
new postage stamps Of 1907 will bear
on their face the name Of the city and
state In which they are sold, and it
will make no difference in what part
of the country they are used, the city
of their origin will have the credit for
their sale. Postage stamps in the past
have proved to be exceptionally nego-
table plunder for the light fingered
gentry. The Chicago postottice little
while ago was robbed of nearly $780,
OO0 worth of stamps Of small denomi-
nations, and no trace Of the perpetra-
tors was ever discovered. With each
gummed piece Of paper an inanimate
detective by means of the name Of its
city of origin it is scarcely possible
that thief could so completely cover
his tracks in disposlng Of his booty

Old soldiers all over the cOun-
try can feel a real interest in the
action of the Interior department
in disbarring one firm of pension
attorneys from practice and in
stituting proceedings against sew
eral others. The trouble was spec
ulation on the part of the pension
sharks in land bounty script.
This script is issued to all soldiers
and their widows and heirs who
participated in any American
! war back of 1855. There are a
surprising number of these SOL
diers and their descendants in
the country who have never ap-
piled for their land bounty.
The pension firms in question
made a practice of looking up
these old claims and notifying
the benefciaries so that the
claims could be pushed through,
the attorneys, of course, getting
the regular fee for the work.
But then it was the habit of many
of the attorneys to buy the land
script from the successful claim
ant at an average of $1.25 per
acre, the claims were for 100 ac-
res, and sell the script to some
outsider, often as high as from
five to ten dollars per acre. Most
of the old claimants did not even
know that they were being rob-
bed, for that was what it amount
ed to. But Secretary Garfield
took the matter up and now one
firm has been disbarred from
practice and others trembling.
Of course, it is a good thing to
protect the pensioners from graft,
but the beauty of the incident
from public viewpoint is that
it indicates the Interior depart
ment is going to be run on an
honest and business-like basis.

The Department of State is
having a few troubles of its own
in the line of Japanese negOtia-
tions and Canadian fishing con-
troversies and the prospect of pO-
litical upheavals in Central A.
merica. But it can spare time
to smile at the situation that Eu-
rope finds itself in with the Hague
conference. AS everyone knows,
the first Hague conference was
called by the Car of Russia, and
the prominent feature of the dis
cussion was the reduction of ar
maments. There was nothing
done, and by the time that the
next meeting of the conference
was due, Russia was so deep in a
war with Japan that the confer
ence was not called at all. Then
the United States suggested a re-
newal of the conference, but the
sky being clear for the time, took
a back seat as a matter of cOur-
tesy and allowed Russia to issue
the formal call. Now, just as
the conference is assembling, the
situation in Russia changes so
much for the worse, that it looks
as though the Car might have a
revolution at home and a peace
conference abroad both on his
hands at the same time. 1t is
needless to say that the. reduc-
ton of ornaments, which all the
European powers are afraid to
discuss, will be given scant con-
sideration at the present meet
ing. The mere fact that Russia
is busy with so much trouble at
home probably will prevent the
present meeting from amounting
to much.

London's Reservoirs,

London has recently opened two new
reservoirs, the BessbOrough and the
Knight. the construction Of which was
begun In 1901. The Knight. or western
reservoir, has capacity of 4S),000,00C
gallons and water area of fifty-one
and half acres. and the Bessborough,
or eastern reservoir, has capacity of
71S,000,000 gallons aud water area of
seyenty-four acres. With the compile
tion OF these reservoirs London pos.
sesses sixty subsidlng and storage res
ervoirs for unfiltered water, having a
total area of 1,435 acres, with ca
pacIty Of s,834,OOO0OO gallons. This
storage would be sufficient to provide
a supply equivalent to about forty days
Of average consumption for a popula-
ton Of 6,75O.OO0 without drawing on
the Thames or any other source of
supply.

An interesting feature of the
railroad rate situation was made
public by the Interstate Com
merce Commission last week
when it was announced that the
Canadian government had decid-
ed to adopt the system of railroad
bookkeeping and accounting ap-
proved by the United States, and
thus have a uniform system for
practically the whole of this con-
tinent. The new system will 20
into effect on July l of this year.
1t provides for the books that
shall be kept by the railroads
showing the items of receipts and
expenditures, the disbursements
for operating expenses including
leases, betterments and the de-
probation of property. The law
further provides that not only
shall this set of books be kept
but that none others shall be
kept, SO that the whole of the
railroads finances will be open
to government inspection just as
much as the accounts of a nat
ional bank are to the bank exam
iners of the Treasury. This is as
it should be. The railroads are
public service corporations, and
the people have right to know
just how they stand financially.
