AN INCREASE OF P0SToFFICE RECEIPTS.
Statement From GuTfport Office for September
Shows Gain of 81, 1880.

Gulfport, Miss, Oct. 5.-Local post
Office receipts for the quarter ending
September 80 were S7,572.47. The re-
ceipts for the same period in 1909 were
S6,O92.57. A comparison between these e
quarters shows a gratifying increase of
S1,47990. The highest previous quar-
ter of the same period, which was in
1907, shows the receipts to have been
S6,18751, while the highest OF any
quarter since the city has been in exist
ence was S6,891. The marine records
show the value of exports to have been
for the quarter ending September 30,
S2,024,770. A comparison OF these val
ues with those of previous quarters
shows out little difference.
Miss Lula White, who is a member OF
the faculty of the Gulfport High School
and has been under treatm ent at hos
pital in New Orleans for the past five
weeks, has returned to the city. Miss
White, however, will not resume her
duties until after she mere fully recu-
perates at Mineral Wells, Texas, to
which point she will go in few days.

Steel. CAGES FOR HARRISON COUNTY
CONViCTS.

Biloxi, Miss, Sept. 22.-Two porta-
BILE steel cages, to be used for county
prisoners doing roadwork, have arrived,
and County Supervisor F. w. Elmer,
Sr., says that as soon as they are put
on wheels they will be sent to Winnie,
where they vii! serve as quarters for
the eonvicts now at work on roads IN
that section.
One of the cages can accommodate
eighteen prisoners, while the other, not
as large. is intended for twelve. Ham
mocks will be strung in the cages.
The steel cages viii doubtless be well
received at Winnie, where for months
rigid vigilance has had to be kept over
the convicts, both day and night. Des-
pite the watches, nineteen conviets came
very near escaping, one of them having
fled a piece of iron that held d long
chain, holding their feet-chains. The
cages will be easily transported to va
rious places in the county where road
work is being done.

Washington was an ardent patron Of

TO-DAY IN HISTORY.
Treaty of the Alabama CIaims-May s.

One Of the conspicuous legacies Of the
civil war was that known as the Ala
bama claims, that is, claims against the
British government for damages because
that country permitted the Confederate
government to build vessels in her ship
yards for the purpose OF preying on
American merchant vessels. which the
North claimed was against international
law. at least International courtesy
The Alabama was built in the great
English shipyard Of Laird & Sons, on
the Mersey River. There was a law
passed by Parliament long before for
bidding any vessel to be built or equip
ped i'll British waters for use against a
friendly nation. The American Minister
in London. Charles Francis Adams
called the attention Of the authorities to
the law; but all action was deferred
until it was too late. The 900. as the
vessel was known, had been finished
and had escaped.
1t was in August, 1S62. that the Ala
bama began its wonderful tour Of the
world, the most remarkable of its kind
in history 1t was not a pirate ship
nor was its purpose 10 acquire riches.
Its object was to weaken the North by
destroying Northern shipping, and it
captured siXty-nine vessels, including
merchantmen and whalers.
The vessels captured by the Alabama
were often burned and the passengers
and crews carried 10 some port and set
free. 1t was in June. 1864, that the Ala
bama reached Cherborg, and here It
net the Kearsarge, a United States
cruiser of about the same size. 1t was
a death duel, In neutral waters. and the
kearsarge sunk the Alabama. thus end
ing the strange career of this famous
vessel.
When the war was over the British
government was politely informed that
she would be expected to pay damages
for the destruction of American ship

guest. In President Grants annual mes

Light on the Lighthouse System.

The government authorities who have
TO do with the lighthouse branch have
been subjected to a remorseless grluinp
by the members Of the House Committee
on Appropriations, and the disclosure has
been OF such character that II &c re-
markablC that Congress has not taken
steps heretofore to reform the system Of
administration. There is an altogether
unwieldy body Of army and navy officers
known as the Lighthouse Board. AZ the
head of which is usually a rear admiral
of the navy. This IS a comfortable billet.
as IS any sort IF duty connected with the
lighthouse establishment. There is. more
over In each lighthouse district a naval
officer who acts as inspector" and an
army officer who acts as engineer" No
one has been able to determine why there
should be two officers in each district
merely TO sec that the lighthouses are
kept in operation The work could evil
IDENTIFY be done by a civilian. who might
easily attend to several districts. Any
thing Of a technical character in the wav
Of construction might very easily be look
ed after by an army engineer detailed for
the entire lighthouse branch. This much
ohicered establishment has afforded con-
genial duty for large number Of army
and navy officers, and the situation is
positively grotesque when It is remem-
bered that in both the War and NAVY de-
partments much Is made of the fact that
the army and navy must be increased be-
cause there are not sufficient officers 10
perform the duties OF the regular mill
tary-naval establishments. When the
army and navy officers on lighthouse duty
can be spared from that task and their
services are so greatly needed in their
own branches. it is remarkable that they
have been kept on lighthouse duty.
In the hearing before the House Appro-
priations Committee of the president Of
the Lighthouse Board, that officer was
led to admit the absurdity of the prevail
ing system. Being a naval officer. how
ever, he was inclined to think that the
army officers on duty as engineers in the
lighthouse districts could be spared and
sent back to their own service. keeping
the naval officers on duty as district in
spectors. Rear Admiral Adolph Mark.
who is president Of the Lighthouse Board.
describes the administration of that
branch as cumbersome and Ridiculous
with no one in supreme control at the
head Of the establishment. and with two
useless district officers in each district.
