PostOfficc Department and its
Competitors, The Express
COmpa..ies.

Financially, the postoflice depart
fi1ent has never been able to keep it's
expenditures within its receipts. and
from year to year the deficit grows
larger. The President, in special
message to congress on the subject,
recommends an increase of postage or
certain classes OF periodicals and a
check to the further extension Of rural
free delivery. Only recently, the de-
partment increased the registry fee
% per cent, and il has been made
criminal offence, with heavy fine at
tached. to issue and circulate a per-
sonal check for less than one dollar,
evidently with the intention of com
peling the increase in the patronage
Of the money order business depart
ment on a paying basis, but their sue
cess is doubtful, without better busi-
ness methods in the management of
the postofiice department.
Congressman Murdock, of Kansas,
who discovered the custom Of owe
weighing the mails on the part of the
railroads and thereby is saving the de-
partment millions of dollars. has taken
up protest from man from Arkan
sas. against the express companies for
carrying packets, other than letters,
Weighing four pounds and less, claim
ing that the department has, or should
have, a monopoly of the transporta.
tion Of such packages. In his protest
against the companies, he states that
whereas the postoffice department fell
short of paying expenses last year the
Wells-Fargo Express Co. cleared S25.-
00o, 900 during the same period. large
per cent of which was derived from
this source.
The people are certainly not more
friendly to the express conn anies thar
to the postoffice department, therefore
there must be some other reason why
they patronize the companies As D
matter of fact, the companies give
better service than the postoifice de-
p,rtment, in that they call for and de
iver Il packages, and in transit thu
fragile ones are placed in strong b *
as, which protect them from damage
and breakage. The people are willing
t, and do pay the companies slightly
higher rate for this better service than
is charged II sent by mail.
1t is probable that the Congressman
and the President wonld find better
pay dirt" if they would go deeper
and investigate and compare the con-
tracts the government and the express
companies have with the transporta-
tion companies. In this, they may
discover the principal reason why the
companies make money and the gov
ernment looses money on the same
class of business. Competition of the
express companies is not a sufficient

Rheumatic
Pains

"My mother is a great SUI
ferer from rheumatism, and DIR.
Miles Anti-Pain Pills is the only
remedy that relieves her."
MRS. G. DAVENPORT,
Royce6eld, N. J.
The pains of rheumatism are
, almost invariably relieved with
DIR. Miles Anti-Pain Pills. They
also overcome that nervous irri-
tation which prevents sleep be-
cause they soothe the nerves. To
chronic suffers they are invalu-
able. When taken as directed,
they relieve the distress and
save the weakening influence OF
pain, which so frequently pros
trates. Many sufferers use them
whenever occasion requires with
the greatest satisfaction, why
not you? They do not derange
the stomach nor create a habit.
Why not try them? Get a pack
age from your druggist. Take il
according to directions, and Il
it does not benefit he will return
your money.

Around Hotel Corridors

w HEN Harry c. Fryman, propri-
w etor of the Hayward hotel,
promised himself and his friends
few weeks ago that the new annex
to the Hayward would be finished and
ready for occupancy by July l, almost
everybody laughed at him. 1t appears
now, however, that he will make good.
The work of rebuilding the structure
is being done from the top down IN
stead of from the bottom up, as Is
customary. This is because Mr.. Fry
man desires to get the rooms of the
two upper stories finished first. Inc
ground floor will be occupied by two
stories and a new bar and wash room.
with the completion of the annex
the Hayward will have about fifty new
rooms. of these twenty will be large
sample rooms for the commercial trade
and each room in the new bulldlng
will have a private bath. The new
bar is to be done in mission style with
decorations worked out in delft and
old gold. The back of the bar, with
its huge mirrors and mission woodwork,
will be surmounted with little mission
bells. These, attached to a clock in the
center and above the mirror, Will
chime out the hours in true mission
style.
The rest Of the building will be fur
nished and fitted UP in the same eiap-
crate manner. Besides, the WhoIe
hotel. old and new combined, will be
refurnished throughout.
The other two store rooms on sixth
street will be occupied by a cigar
stand and barber shop.

The Theaters

Plenty of comedy and some music
of various degrees of excellence and
character make the vaudeville bill at
Los Angeles theater quite enjoyable.
Walter lie Roy an Irish comedian
of exceptional naturalness, and Flor
ence Clayton, present sketch ell
titled "a Horse on Hogan"
Max Yorks six trained fox terriers
show almost human intelligence. York
does all sorts of tumbling and aero
batic stunts. His motions are tmitat-
ed in a remarkable manner by the
CANNES.
If Edwin Winchester would elimi-
nate the final verse from his song about
George" his act not only would be
benefited but also would be entitled
to commentator as a clean, clever and
entertaining turn.
Countess Leontine, a pretty, we'll
gowned woman, sings some popular
and otherwise sings in satisfactory
manner. Fox and Ward, burnt cork
comedians, with q line of new and old
jokes, and a couple of songs, the Idan-
las, four women gymnasts, in clever
stunts on the trapeze and a set of mo-
tion pictures complete the program.
The motion picture showing the rigors
of deep sea fishing and a ship tossed
about in heavy sea, are almost worth
the price of admission.

and hlgh-spirited animal.
Tying the horse Immediately in front of
the crosswalk he strolled into the grounds,
where he encountered the gardener, who told
him that Mrs. Neal was away from home.
The man explained however, that he had
been sent for tho rugs, which were to be
cleaned, and the gardener let him into the
house, saw him make his selection and
watched his departure.
