The Register is publishing a call
for q special meeting Of the stock
holders of the Fort Lyon Canal to
consider the proposition of increas-
ing the amount of special assess-
ment voted at last regular meeting.
The directors find that will have diff
ficulty in placing q second mortgage
on the property, but can easily place
. first mortgage for a sum much
larger than the total indebtedness t.
be created. For this reason they
will ask the. ckholders to authoriz.

Postmaster Mears has received
several communications from the
rural route department Of the post
office system on the subject Of good
roads, and they are in substance as
follows:
Just now the postoffice depart
ment has sent out word that the con
ditions Of all rural mail route roads
shall be examined by the postmaster
and a comprehensive report sent in
to the fourth assistant postmaster
general. The postmaster Is instruct
ed to impress on the road overseers
that the roads must be kept in good
condition or the routes will be
changed or be discontinued. 1t is
urged that this department of the
mail service Is carried on at loss
to the department and the least that
the rural districts can do is to keep
the roads in good condition for the
daily travel of the mall carrier.
Another thing that In urged upon
the patrons of the rural routes is.
that they shall put their boxes up in
uniform manner So that they will
look alike and command the respect
of the public. A model post has at
last been suggested by the depart
ment and 1t is further urged that
these posts and boxes be painted
white with the names OF the owners
of the boxes painted on them in
black. There is great significance in
this suggestion. as It Is the desire
of the postoffice department that a
uniform color for this service shall
be adopted throughout the United
States, SO that they shall become a
fixed identity in all parts of the
country as-United States mail boxes.
This plan will be insisted upon by
the postoffice department and the
postmaster will have a cut made
showing the plan of construction of
the post and manner of setting same
for the convenience of the carrier.
1t is to be hoped that all patrons OF
the rural routes will cooperate with
the department in thus bringing
about much desired uniformity ano
system in this service.

This bill will be presented the re- naining three days of the week, with the usual three daily performances.

Waterbury, April 14.-It is announc- ed that counsel for Sophie Kritchman will ask Judge Williams for finding of facts and that the girls case will be appealed to the supreme court of errors of the state on the ground that her life had twice been placed in jeopardy.
