Rural Delivery Suggestions.

From a recent count made by rural
carriers in one of the counties in the
State of New York of coins deposited by
patrons in their boxes for the purchase
of stamp supplies, it was found that each
carrier in the county was collecting an
average of lis one cent coins each week.
This average applied to all the routes in
operation throughout the country would
give the enormous total of about
800 900, 900 one-cent coins.
AS rost of these coins are deposited
loose in boxes, it is desirable that you
and the rural carriers, in a tactful and
polite way. put forth your best efforts
to induce patrons to provide themselves
with stamp supplies in advance Of their
needs, and to equip their boxes with
suitable coin holding receptables. 1t
shonld be explained to patrons that the
picking Of loose coins from boxes not
only results in needless hardship and
suffering to carriers in winter weather,
delays the delivery and collection of the
mails, but frequently results in actual
money loss to the carriers, for If, in COL
lecting coins from boxes, they drop them
into the snow or on the ground without
recovery, they are required to replace
the amount out of their own funds.

Motor Company Makes Suggestions
for Revisi0ns of Auto Laws.

Mayor Behrman, OF New Orleans, re.
ceived letter from the Lyons Barton
Motor Company, in relation to the pro-
posed revision Of the ordinance regulst-
ing the speed, ETC., OF automobiles in New
Orleans. It is admitted in the communi-
cation to the Mayor that this is matter
which requires the attention of the auth.
critics, especially of the police depart
ment, and in this connection it offers the
Mayor some suggestions predicated up
on driving experiences in other cities.
The company proposes among other
things the following
Il. Vehicles Approaching Each Other
4---Drirefs-keep 70. the right This i the
fundamental law Of all traffic and should
be strictly enforced. 1t is regulation in
New Orleans, but many drivers of horse.
drawn vehicles pay no attention to it, and
serious accidents are sure to result with
our growing traffic unless they do.
q. Vehicle Overtaklng Another Vehi.
Gle Shall Pass to the Left Of That Vehi-
cle-This is most important and is abso-
lutely disregarded in New Orleans SO Tar
as we are able to determine. Take, for
example, St. Charles avenue. We have
counted as many as ten cases in fifteen
blocks where drivers or horse drawn ve-
hicies deliberately pulled in close to the
neutral ground or car tracks upon hear
ing the signal Of an approaching automo-
bile. The drivers may have been unaware
that they were eDdangering themselves
or others, but in many instances they re-
fused to move to the right to allow the
overtaking vehicles to pass them. II this
is ignorance one mounted officer could
teach them in short time.
.a. Slow. Movirs Vehicles Keep to the
Curb-This 10 rule in force in almost
all large cities and is simply to prevent
traffic congestion BY making drivers Of
heavy drays. ETC., keep to the right. 1t
is not enforced in New Orleans, and w.
hicles of the aforesaid mentioned type
block traffic on many streets in conse-
quence.
a. In turning corner to the right,
vehicle shall keep close to nght-hsnd
curb. In turning to the left vehicles shall
make wide turn, bearing to the right.
The idea involved is the same as in the
foregoing rules. It also prevents the
cutting corners 80 dangerous to pedes-
TRANS.
sThe above road laws are in use in al
most every other part Of this country, and
are working ont satisfactorily. However,
there are other conditions in New Orleans
which make automobile driving difficult
and at times more or less unpleasant.
There are, Of course. many other
shanges which could be suggested in all
,f the automobile laws, for when they
were made little was known about the
growth Of the industry. No doubt these
changes win be made in time, but for the
present something must be done to pro-
tect traffic, whether automobile, horse.
drawn vehicle or pedestrian.

Fast and exciting games were
played last night in the city basket
ball league, when the High school
quintet defeated the d A. ID. team
by score of 2O-13. while the Elks
were easy victors over the Light and
Power boys.
The feature game was between tho
students and the fraternity lads,
and II was one of the eleanest game
ever played on the local floor. The
ball was visible at all moments, and
the players abided by the rules in
good style. The game was fast. re-
plete with team work, and several
spectacular throws for field goals
were made. The two teams are well
matched, and are now tied as the
fraternity captured the first game OF
the season from the school lads.
High school started of with a jump,
and rang mp several baskets before
the Greek letter team got down to
business. After returning to the
floor from an airship trip the players
got busy and threatened to tie the
score, but High school kept going,
and always pulled out OF danger
The Elks defeated the Light and
Power team by a score of 1873. The
game was full of rivalry, aud al
though the L. & p. team was patched
up a brave struggle was put up, but
the Elks have developed too strong
team work for the team In the first
half the score stood 1O-2 in favor OF
the Elks. and It was increased in the
second half, but the l.. & p. quintet
made a determined effort to increase
the small cad of the score.

stni in dreamless sleep by the soft
flowing river
Where nfst was laid low his mighty
head;
Where the Blue-Mounts guard, he
rests forever
The nations sacred, time-hallowed
dead.
Under the turf OF his loved Mount
Vernon.
with never a murmur to break the
spell,
Save the voice OF the waves that
soothe his slumber
He sleeps In his own last words:-
"'Tis Welt"
The dust OF a century's gathered
above him;
Empires crumbled. thrones have
swayed.
Yet still he lives In the hearts that
love him,
The homes made bles'd by his trusty
blade.
No mortal hand was lowed to strike
the blow
That laid the hero OF an huadred
battles low.
To one aione-to Death-that power
was given.
Sent by the Will OF Him who rules IN
heaven.
The willow weeps above the noble
brow
That bowed alone to Him to whom
all must;
The brow uadylng laurel Justly
crowns-
The laurel now droops DER the war
rior's dust.
Yet the hearts and the voices OF free
dom will sing;
Through the echoing future his glory
will ring:
And the answering corridors OF fame
Shall echo forever with Wash ngton's
name.
Go: furl the banner he so proudly
bore:
Go sheath the blade he so deservedly
wore:
The banner that has viewed such
devastation.
The sword that flashed for freedom
and the nation!
And rest. thou honored ohieftain ever

Content; thy noble work on earth Is
done.
Thou'st gained the crown IN thy last

Twill gain but greatness with the

Thy memory by the world be sacred

Thy grave be hallowed by a country's
tears.

'Tis the glory OF the nations 20 revere
