Mr.. Allen S. Howell, of Oakland, left
here yesterday afternoon for Wheeling,

went for the purpose of attending the
funeral of his brother, Rev. Richard
Howell, who died at the Astoria Hotel,

whose body will arrive in Wheeling to-
day. The deceased gentleman was a
prominent minister of the Protestant
Episcopal church. Several weeks ago
he underwent surgical operation in
volving the removal of a portion of his
tongue ana throat which had become
cancerous and from the operation he
never fully recovered. He was mar
ried few years ago and was probably
the wealthiest minister in the world,
being rated at considerably above a

Must Buy Sta mps.

The Department desires that the
patrons of Rural Delivery Service put
stamps on their mail, so that the car
riers can make time on their routes,
and thereby enable them to render
more prompt and efficient service. A
little cooperation on the part of the
patrons with the Department will re-
suit in great Improvement in the ser
vice. The carriers at all times carry
an ample supply of stamps. stamped
envelopes and postal cards, and it will
be 10 trouble for the patrons to keep
themselves supplied Rural carriers as
a rule are scheduled to leave the offices
from which the service emanates as
soon as possible after the arrival of the
principle mail trains, care being taken
to connect with the trains bringing the
daily papers and other important mat
ter. This gives them only a limited
time to cover their routes and get back
to the home office to make connections
with outgoing trains so that mail mat
ter collected for dispatch may go to it's
destination as promptly as possible.
The Department order is as follows:
''In view of the extent to which the
practice of placing loose coins in boxes
by rural patrons has grown, and the
delay in the delivery and collection of
mail and the hardship imposed on the
rural carriers incident thereto, you are
informed that, commencing Feb. Is,
proximo, rural letter carriers will not
be required to collect loose coins from
rural mail boxes. Patrons should en-
close coins in an envelope, wrap them
securely in piece of paper, or deposit
them in a coin holding receptacle, so
they can be easily and quickly taken
from boxes, and carriers will be re-
quired to lift such coins, and, where ac-
companied by mail for dispatch, attach
the requisite stamps"

FIRE IN A CHURCH.
Timely Discovery Saves Mt. Lake
PARK Edifice from Destruction.

Sunday evening last the Methodist
Episcopal church at Mountain Lake
Park was saved from destruction by
fire by the timely work of a number of
people and the application of quantities
of snow to the burning timbers.
The fire was communicated to the
floor of the building by an over-heated
furnace pipe in the cellar while service
was being conducted BY members of
the Epworth League, and had gained
such Roadway that hole was burned
through the floor. AS soon as it was
noticed, however, the people in the
building filed out without alarm.
Water being scarce the men at the SER
vice gathered large quantities of snow
and with this substitute the flames
were soon extinguished with but slight
damage to the property.

A mortgage is a strange institution.
1t makes man rustic, and it keeps
him poor. 1t is a strong incentive to
action, and wholesome reminder of
the fleeing months and years. A
mortgage represents industry, because
it is never idle and never rests, 1t is
like bosom friend, because the great
er the adversely the closer it sticks to
fellow. Ii is like soldier; it never
hesitates in charging nor fears to close
on an enemy. 1t is like the sand.bag
of thug; silent in its application, but
deadly in its effect. Like the very
hand of providence is spread over all
creation, and its influence is every
where visible. 1t is like the group of
the devilfish, the longer it holds the
greater it's strength. 1t will exercise
feeling, energy and lend activity to
the sluggish brain. No matter how
hard the debtor works, the mortgage
works harder still, 1t makes fellow
sour, cross, selfish, msociable and
miserable, and rarely does him any
! good TO exercise him.

CIVIC ASSOCIATION NOTES

That skating proposition is receiving
earnest consideration by the associa-
tion and the citizens, and while an en-
tirely satisfactory solution cannot be
reached this year, Something worth
while should materialize before another
winter closes in.
Three propositions are under consid-
GRAFTON. The first is a limited area
near the corner of Windsor and Third
Avenues This location would be inn
mediately available on obtaining con-
sent from property owners and should
be made use of this season. The use
of the city's fire hose could be secured
to flood the area from time to time as
required. making safe and convenient
rink for the boys and girls
The second proposition is to dam the
river above the Main Street bridge and
food the low lands adjacent to the
stream. The third alternative and the
largest plan is to take advantage of the
progress of county park improvement
and make and maintain large natural
skating area in the new park east of
59th Street. This public ground Dor
ders the river on both sides for nearly
quarter of mile and also includes a
part of the high ground on the south.
The course of the stream has been ar
tificially changed, and the old bed could
be flooded by temporarily banding the
river at some advantageous point, In
connection with this project tobog-
gan slide might be built, taking adj
vantage of the high ground to the
south. If this new park is to be made
of the greatest possible value to the
public, surely no better use could be
made of it than the creating of a play
ground for winter sports.
