Drinking tho Waters.


The lame and the lazy can have their
allowance OF water carried up to their
hotels by their Wallets and maids or the
servants Of the house, but 1t is not con-
sidered the proper thing. Everybody
else. therefore, is called at half-past 1--WE
or six so as to drink the water fresh
from the springs. The largest crowd can
be found between Z and o'clock I'm the
morning. but from 6 to the pavilions
are thronged with human beings, every
blessed one of them carrying a cup or
q glass. called 'beecher.' in his hand,
either empty or filled with mineral wa
ter. The cups and glasses Of Carlsbad
are of peculiar shape, like lemonade
glass. narrow and deep. and each has a
handle. You buy them Of Old women
who have stands at the entrances of the
payiltons, and they will keep them for
you overnight II you take them back
after you have finished drinking. To
to the handle, but you must remember
the number it bears in order to claim
the glass in the morning, and you must
give them a tip occasionally for their
trouble. These women will also loan
your gloves from the moisture. Many
people prefer to take their ''beechers'
to their hotels. and go about with them
hanging on over the pit OF the stomach
from cord or strap Some suck the
water through a glass tube, but that
Is considered an affectation.
During the height of the season ten
or fifteen thousand persons of all ages
and races and styles of dress may be
seen standing around or promenading in
the neighborhood Of the springs between
and o'clock in the morning. and
often the crowd is so dense that it is
dimcult to get through. They approach
the springs in PROFESSIONS which are
sometimes quarter Of mile long, and
numbering from fifteen hundred to two
thousand people. The line is protected
and Is arranged like the coils Of a rope.
Sometimes there are seven, eight or ten
coils, moving slowly and without cessa-
ton like great snake. Curious combf-
nations are seen in the procession which
illustrate the cosmopolitan character of
the crowds that so to Carlsbad for treat

the crowds that gather early every morn

strong and the weak. the good and the
bad, the lucky and the unfortunate. who

The proper time for drinking the water
is before breakfast, because it is more

6 to 8 o'clock in the morning, for 1t

POSTAL SAVINGS BANK
NOT FOR MANY MONTHS
Planning and Printing Will Require
Long Time Yet-Committee
Named to Prepare Details.

The board of trustees. consisting of the
Postmaster General the Secretary of the
Treasury and the Attorney General which
has charge of the Organization of a pos
tai savings system in the United States
met in the Office of Postmaster General
Hitchcock at 4 o'clock yesterday after
noon and completed its organization
with the selection of Theodore l.. Weed,
chief clerk of the Post Office Depart
ment. as its SECRETARY.
The Postmaster General reported to the
board that he had requested of all for
eign governments having postal savings
systems samples of their printed forms
and record blanks and copies of their
regulations and instructions, to aid the
board in perfecting a postal savings sys-
tenn in the United States.
With the approval of the board the
Postmaster General appointed a commit
tee of departmental officers TO work out
the details of the system and submit a
report to the trustees The committee
will be composed as follows:
III. IL. Thompson, superintendent diyi-
sion OF finance. chairman; Bayard Wy
man, superintendent division of post
masters appointments: Basil Miles, super
intendent division of foreign mails; James
B. Cook. chief division of inspection: c.
III. Fullaway, assistant superintendent
division of finance; G. G.. Thomson, super
intendent division of supplies; George G..
Kimball, post Office inspector
This committee will take up its work
Immediately and will hold daily sessions
that no time may be lost in formulating
plans for recommendation to the board.
II is not believed, however. that the work
OF preparing and printing the necessary
blanks and records, the designing and
engraving Of the various stamps and
the drafting Of the necessary regula-
tons and instructions can be accom-
plished inside of several months.
1t is, therefore. unlikely that the board
OF trustees will be in position to take
up for some little time the matter OF
designating repositories. Another meet
ing of the board will be held in q few
days.
