A Boy Lost and Found.

o. w. Johnston, Jr., is only six
years and chip off the old block
like his father he believes in adj
vertising and has gone hini one
better by getting more attention
at less cost than his father. In
fact he beat his papa 40 rods and
if he had had any stoves to sell
every person in Marshall would
have founf it out in a startling
manner.
Mrs. Johnston got the boy ready
after dinner Monday to accompany
his father to the store, but he
thought different and started for
College Addition. Mr.. Johnston
didn't know he was to go along
and SO was unawares of his absence
At supper time the little fellow
was missed and then there were ex
plantations and hurried search and
use OF the phone. Failing to To-
cate hime outside help was called
in. The Eagles had just assembled
when the news reached them and
they adjourned to aid in the search
The Marshall republican., 1909-04-30

Ed Purcell remembered that a
boy had been seen at s. P. Aliens
and went out in an auto and found
him safely tucked in bed at the
Allen home it being then o'clock.
Mrs. Allen had telephoned to the
store shortly before six and the
gentleman at the phone had for
gotten to mention the fact to M.
Johnston, not thinking it very i'm
portant, and when not called for
she thought it nothing out of
place to take care OF him till in
the morning.
There was quite little excite
ment for several hours, but fortu-
nateny it was only a bad scare.
Mr.. Johnston requests us to thank
the citizens for him for their aid
and kindly interest in assisting to
find his boy.

Saved His House.

While boiling some coal tar in G
pot on his kitchen stove Thursday
of last week, d. G.. Finley, OF
south OF Nelson, did a desperate
and heroic thing when the stuff
accidentally caught afire. He
grabbed up the burning mass-and
anyone who has seen coal tar afire
knows what that means-in his
bare hands and carried it out OF
the house thereby saving his home
from destruction. He went to Nell
son Saturday to consult a physi-
clan and showed us his burns be-
fore seeing the doctor. The flesh
on the back of his hands was bad
ly burnt and boiled and much of it
missing, exposing the bones in
places. He did not take it serious
ly and we hope it will not prove so
by healing and giving him no fur
ther trouble.

Gillian Burglary.

Burglars broke into C. w. Lands
store at Gillian Saturday night,
blew open the safe with nitrogly-
cerine and made away with $1O0
in cash. They also took 500 in
checks but threw them away near
the mill. The robbery was not dis
covered until Sunday noon al
though a number were awakened
by the two explosions about 2.30
Sunday morning. The tools used
were stolen from Chas. Shellen-
berg's saddlery shop.
Gillian is having more than her
share of robberies due no doubt to
her convenient location, although
it is said that loafers are given
their passports in a hurry.

Der the still and peaceful breast
Close the dear ones eyelides gently
Little Amelia has gone to rest.
On the downy coffin's pillow
Lay the darling's little head,
Lay the precious little sleeper
In her lonely dreamless bed.
Blessed child when early taken
From a world of pain and care
To the Joy and love and beauty
OF the mansion bright and fair.
To that beautiful bright country
Where the sweet white dove has
flown,
Do not think she went through
darkness
Wandering fearful and alone.
Jesus loves those little darlings
And has laid the dear one safely
On the bosom OF her God.
She will meet her dear ones there
And will smile on loving faces

others. The sultan, pale ad
spector, then tottered to his feet
and said: "Take me to the Charig-
han palace with my family. Twas
born there there let me die"
A similar deputation went to the
Dolmabagtsche palace in Galata
and informed Mehemmed Reschad
Effendi of the nations wish. The
newly proclaimed sultan replied he
bowed to the will Of the people.
Later the assembly debated the
momentous question OF Abdul Ham
ids future residence. The sugges-
tion that he be allowed to travel
abroad was strongly opposed on
the ground that it might cause
Complications. 1t was finally de-
cided that he must remain in Con-
stantinople.
The sultan-elect came by boat
across the Bosphorus to Stamboul.
He landed near the Sublime porte
and went to the Seraskerat in a
closed carriage drawn by black
horses. A large detachment of
cavalry acted as an escort and car
riages containing his sons and his
suite followed. Troops lined the
entire route, comprising regulars
and volunteers OF all nationalities
of the empire. Ahmed Ria the ex
president of the chamber OF depu-
ties and General Schefket and his
officers received Mehemmed Res
chad at the portals of the war Of
flee. All kissed the prince's hand.
He wore black frock coat. His
trousers were of a cut fashionable
fifteen years ago in England. He
was ushered into the great hall by
the entire cabinet, where had a
sembled the representatives of the
nation and state dignitaries civil,
military and ecclesiastical.
AT 4 O'Clock the prince solemn.y
subscribed the oath, which was ad-
ministered by the Sheik vi Islam.
A rnollah offered prayers for the
welfare of the new sultan and the
prosperity of the nation, and the
assemblage responded "Amen."
Returning to Dolmabagtsche
palace where he will take up his
residence, the new sultan was
cheered by great crowds all along
the way, to which he responded by |
saluting repeatedly. Envor Bey
one of the leaders OF the young F!
Turks who followed the procession
was recognized and thunderously
cheered. Picture post cards Of
the new sultan appeared in the |
streets like magic and found
great sale. The streets, ships and
harbor are gay with bunting and
the weather has been perfect.
Subsequently, in receiving a de-
putation from the national assem-
bly,, Mehemmed said: "I am pleas
ed to become the first constitution
al sovereign. Doubtless my sue
cessor will improve upon me but
you may rely upon my doing my
best. l also have suffered oppres-
sion and can therefore enteg into
the feelings of my fellow sufferers.
Let us endeavor to work together
for the welfare of the country"

The Rural Mail Service.
April Is, 1909.

April 15, 1909.
The Postmaster:
In order to expedite the delivery,
collection, and dispatch of rural
mail, enable rural carriers to cover
their routes with celebrity, and
give the earliest possible service to
patrons residing on the far end of
routes, the Department will in
sist that all rural mail boxes be
so located as to be served with the
greatest expedition.
You are, therefore, directed to
require each rural carrier at your
office to submit to you without de-
lay, for transmission to the De-
partment, the names of all patrons
whose boxes can not be served
without leaving the road, dismount
ing, driving in deep bitches or on
steep inclines, or on or across rail
way tracks involving danger, or
the approaches to whose boxes are
obstructed. 1t is not required that
boxes shall be erected beside the
wheel track, not on any particular
corner of the crossroads; but they
must be erected within the con-
fines of the road and accessible on
any corner.
1t is not desirable that boxes be
attached to telegraph, telephone,
or electric-ight poles, or to fences
or buildings, but boxes should be
securely fastened to a neat and
strong post firmly set at the side
of the roads, at sufficient height
to be served by carriers without
rising from their seats or reaching
through wheel spokes.
After boxes have been properly
relocated, and it is practicable to
curtail carriers schedules, post
masters will advise this office, so
that changes in schedules may be
considered.
When roads are in bad condition
postmasters are directed to make
report thereof to the Department,
and to the proper local road Of.
ficials and cooperate with them and
patrons to the fullest extent con-
sistent with position and duty, to
secure the improvement of the
roads. The manifestation of in
terest and properly directed ef-
forts by postmasters in the good
roads question will in many instan-
ces be productive of excellent re-
suits. Respectfully,
P. ". DEGRRW,
Fourth Assistant Postmaster Gem
eral.
The Marshall Post Office is glad
to be able to report that great inn
provements has been made in the
rural route roads out of this office,
but there is still plenty OF room for
Improvement, and 1t is hoped that
steps will soon be taken to put
in good shape portions of several
routes which are right now in very
had condition.
The attention OF rural patrons
Is also called to the requirements
OF the Department in regard to To-
cation OF mail boxes,
