will remain until the 22nd when he
will sail for Puerto Cortez, Honduras.
From that city be will travel sixty
five miles by rail and four days on
mule back to a mining camp where
he has a position as mining engineer.
The mine is owned by parties in this
country with offices in New York.
Cyril is under contract for a year at a
good salary, all travelling expenses
paid, together with his board at the
mine. If he concludes to remain with
the company the second year he will
receive a handsome raise in salary.
He thinks he will like this position
much better than his former job in
South America. The altitude of the
mine is 5000 feet, or a trihe more
than that of Denver, Col. The
climate is therefore much better than
that existing in the greater part of
the tropical countries and will be far
more agreeable to a northern man.
We would much prefer to have Cyril
secure a position nearer home, but
considering the salary the new posi-
ton is better than he could hope to

they are still pending subject to sus-
pension, unless they comply with
the provisions of the following re-
gulations:
Mr.. Bacon says:
There seems to be a lingering
doubt in the minds of some publishers
that the rules promulgated by the
department will not be enforced, but
Mr.. Baconls talk was to the effect
that while the department did not de-
sire to infIict any undue hardship
on newspapers, at the same time
publishers must comply with the de
partment's regulation. Seventeen
publishers have been served with CT
tations to appear in Washington,
and the privilege of second-class
pound rates have been withdrawn so
far from two papers. The rule pro-
vides that subscriptions to weekly
papers, II months in arrears, will be
the purpose of cutting off those pub
lishers who paid their subscription
lists for the, sake of obtaining so
called subscribers at either nor
NAL rate or no price at all. In plain
words, the ruling means that sub
scribers to weekly papers must pay
the subscription price before or at
the end of the year covering the sb-
scruiption period A special agent
has been investigating in Iowa and,
in all probability, papers in Wisconsin
will be next investigated
Daily subscriptions can run only
three months and weekhes only one
year, when subscriptions must be
renewed. Reader how is your sub
scrjption with this paper.
