MORE SALARY FOR
POSTMASTER ALLAN
Increase In Receipts Such as TO
Cause Advance in His
Paw.

Postmaster Edgar Allan. Jr.. on
July ! will get a rise of $1,000 10
his present salary of $1,000. An
nouncement to this effect has just
meen made by the post Office depart
ment. This big increase, MIR. Allan
said Tuesday lis due to the Increased
revenues OF the local post office 1t
Is probab that Assistant Postmaster
Fuller will also be benefited by the
generosity OF Uncle Sam.
Postmaster +. IT. Smith. OF Man
chester, will get S2.7oo from July /
instead of $4,000.
The difference in the percentage OF
increase Is due to the fact that the
Sauthside post office Is entirely indie
pendent OF the Richmond mail depot,
and will continue so until the de-
partment orders otherwise. 1t is
probable that this will be done next
March, when the term of appoint
rnent of Mr.. Smith expires,

FUTURE EMPRESS OF AUSTRIA
Descendant of a Bohemian BurglleT
May BE So HOnortAti


The progress of the Duchess of
Hohenberg has been both romantic
and swift. Until recently she was
only the morganatic wife OF the heir
OF the Austrian throne. and. as every
body knows, morganatic wife in
Austria IL only a wife In the eyes OF
the church and the people. BY the
present constitution she can never be
Empress of Austria, though by a
strange anomaly she will be Queen
OF Hungary In the ordinary course
of events. The same confusion also
attaches to her son AT Vienna he
hours journey TO the other side OF
the Leitha will raise him to the
rank of crown prince. But there is
every sign that Vaccinations ARE
afoot to alter the present constitu-
ton. and the duchess may safely be-
gin to bet that she will be one day
empress. She has already been ad
mitted TO court, almost recognized
as a member OF the imperial family,
and titles have~been rained upon her,
so that in few years she has risen
from being q simple countess to the
rank OF durchlaucht, of serene high
ness. and to that of hoheit, or fun
highness.
anu dIl lSIRs mas btrii NQil
own bat The old emperor was in
the habit of spending his evenings
with a plebeian woman called Schratt
For long time he never failed to
share her dish of meat and onions,
and play simple games of cards with
her and her friends. One day, how
ever, about two years ago. he hap
pened TO car upon The wife OF his
heir, and was SO much attracted by
her subtle simplicity that he forgot
all about Shratt and stayed to din
ner,
He has evidently comeAto regret the
fatal obstinacy which caused the trag-
edy Of his son Rudolph, and has now
actually authorized his granddaughter
to marry an ordinary baron, who Is
no more than lieutenant in the re-
serve: he has even permitted his
daughter-in-law to marry common
count. OF course. every sort of in
-trigae-is going en,-bat-it certainly
looks as though the descendant of
Bohemian burgher may very shortly
occupy the throne of Maria Theresa
John Bull.

SUING OFFICIALS

can Car and Equipment Company.
The fling OF the suits follow IN In
vestigation by the railroad company
and numerous rumors OF an alleged

listed any trouble OF this character.
