FOOLED THE GEAR HIMSELF.
Exploits of the Late Count" Leon
 tiew, Confidence Man.

LOndon.-A confidence man of large l ambition, Count" Nikolaus Leontiew has died in Paris. While Voight, the | cobbler of Koepenick fame, only inn posed upon the mayor of a small | town, Leontiew succeeded in hood winl1ing the Russian government and even the Emperor Alexander III him. self
 The so-called count. after a long residence in Abyssinia. returned in 1896 to his Russian home He was accompanied by black bodyguard of natives, who were supposed to rep resent a special mission from the emperor of Abyssinia of which Leon tiew was the head.
 On his seeking an audience with the czar he was received by the Rus
 sian government with open arms. Honors were paid to the special mis- sion, whose members were loaded with presents and with the Russian Order of Merit.
 In return Leontiew bestowed on many Russians as a token of the em- peror of Abyssinia's gratitude an or der called the Star of Abyssinia. It was only after the departure of the count and his mission and their ar rival back in Abyssnia that it was discovered that the whole thing was a hoax
 The Emperor Menelik had sent no such mission and the Star of Abyssi mia was a bogus order. But Leontiew had accomplished the objects of his journey During his stay in Russia he interviewed many of the leading merchants convinced them of the ex- cellent trade prospects in Menelik's country and induced them to entrust him with large quantities of goods for sale. He sold the goods in Abyssinia. but the money he received for them went into his own pocket.
 In 1898 Leontiew appeared in Bel gium as the governor of Ethiopia" and induced many financiers to form cmpanies for the financing of worth less concessions in Abyssinia. In the course of time these came to grief and many people were ruined. The Belgian police making it too hot for him, he fled to Paris where he died.

afternoon the lives of two, and prob
ably three were saved by the pres
ence of mind of Marion Houser, a
lad of only II. Harry Davidson and a
lady teacher in the Seventh grade
of the public school were skating
near the mill On the river dam when
the ice broke through where the wat
err was fifteen to twenty feed deep.
On breaking through. Andrew STEM
wig and Marion Houser went to their
help, but as Stenwig got near the
edge he also broke through. At this
time the aouser boy ran and secured
a plank and slid it across the hole
which bore up the weight of the I'M
fortunates and in this way saved the
lives of three who were almost ex.
hausted by the severe cold.

Washington. Nov. 12.-Postmastel
General Hitchcock, in working out his
economy plan for the rural delivery
service, has no intention of reducing
the number OF carriers now in the ser
vice. Mr.. Hitchcock knows how men,
bers of congress and other influential
government officials and private citi-
zens feel about looping off the heads
! of employees of his or any other exc
cutive department. However, the
postmaster general is convinced that
economy would result by the intro
duction of light automobiles where the
roads are good and the general region
is level He believes one man thus
equipped could cover several times as
much ground as man with a horse
and do it in less time.
Test on New Routes First.
Sucn a plan would have to be con-
fined to new routes for the present be-
cause Of the protest that would follow
changes calculated to retire lot Of
rural carriers. The law limits the
salary of rural carrier to $500. Few
carriers would be willing to purchase
automobiles for this pay. They now
provide their own equipment. Efforts
to obtain an allowance for the care
of horses and equipment has failed.
Mr. Hitchcocks idea is to have the
government provide the automobiles.
Congress would have to amend the
existing law, and undoubtedly would
be slow to do so. especially if the
change looked like an effort to retire
a lot of carriers. The postmaster gen.
eral however. hopes to be able to try
out the plan in the near future.
Hot Rivalry Among Carriers.
Postmasters all over the country are
reporting that rural carriers of their
offices are vieing with each other to
increase the efficiency of the service.
The desire for greater efficiency has
! proven contagious.
i Zone source of tremendous waste"
said the postmaster general. " has
been naccuracy on the part of post
office clerks Often they are careless
in the routing of mail. Letters and
packages are lost. When an important
letter or package goes astray the de-
partment is put to a great expense
to find it. I recall an instance here
in which it cost $50 to find a lost
letter. The postage on that letter was
2 cents. which gave the government
a very small fraction of cent profit.
Accuracy is Paramount.
1T can readily be seen that the
misdirection and consequent expense
consumed the profits on tens of thou-
sands Of letters. This instance will
serve to show how necessary it is that
all postoffice employees be accurate in
their work. 1t also shows the absolute
necessity for the exercise of care by
patrons of the postal service in ad-
dressing letters and packages.
"Thus it will be seen that greater
accuracy on the part of postal en-
ployes means largely increased effici-
ency in the service and an enormous
saving of public money. 1t also means
better service to patrons of the de.
partment everywhere. 1t results in an
extension OF facilities at an actual saw.
ing in the cost of operation"

is the fact that the management

her the women Of this state owe much
for their great victory at the polls
