PAY OF RURAL CARRIERS.
Maximum Salary Made 81 1000. No
Annual Leave Allowed.

Quite a number of inquiries have
reached the fourth assistant post
master general, P. V. de Graw, at
Washington, as to the final shape in
which the postoffice appropriation
bill passed congress, and whether it
authorized an increase in salary for
rural carriers and granted them
thirty days leave Of absence annu-
ally.
The increase in pay was author
lied. The maximum amount is made
$1,000 a year instead of $500 for
routes "a miles in length and over.
Shorter routes are increased pro-
portionately. These readjustments
will be made by the department.
The provision for thirty days
leave of absence, with pay, annually
was stricken in the senate, and the
committee failed to put
it back.

FINDS LONG LOST BROTHER
President of Central Railroad and
Aged BriCklayer Meet After Many
Years of Separation.

LOUISVILLE, Ky.-A Paducah,
KY, dispatch to the Courier-Journal
says:
The relationship of Charles Mark
ham, the new president of the Hi
nois Central and Central of Georgia
railway systems, as the bay broth
er of John Markham, the aged
bricklayer of Hopkinsville, was set
tied a few days ago when the two
brothers met in Memphis for the
first time since the younger brother
was a child. Tears flowed freely
from the eyes Of both.
Several weeks ago the two broth
ers talked over the lOng-distance tel
ephone, and although the remem-
brances of early childhood in Clarks-
vile were alike President Markham
was not fully satisfied that he had
found his long-loBt brother until a
conference was held in Memphis on
Saturday. The brother, who is thir-
~ years older than the railroad pres
ident, passed through Paducah en-
route to Memphis, where the Illinois
Central president was in his private
car.
The brothers did not know each
other by sight, as John Markham
had not seen his younger brother
since he had left home to join the
army in the civil war. Time had
changed the general appearance. but
few words of the old home near
Clarksvtlle soon established the
brotherly tie.
Charley, do you remember the
time l took you on horseback to the
dentist and you had a tooth pull
ed?', began the aged brother.
Yes, l do. can never forget
that" replied the younger brother.
Then it was established that they
were really brothers. The scene of
the railroad president clasping the
form of his aged brother was too
much for the few witnesses. Then a
ong talk followed between the two
| brothers about the family.
When John returned from the war
ne found that his father had died
and that his mother with the baby
brother had removed from the state,
he never knew his whereabout until
Mr.. Markham's name was given pub
Lefty when he was elected president
or the Illinois Central system.

MORE PLUMS AFTER HIS VISIT
TREE WAS WE'LL SHAKEN AFTER
TAFT's FORMER TRIP SOUTH.
BRYAN Visited Washington to Take
a Peep at the Political Situation
But Didn't larry Long.

WASHINGTON eyes are
turned toward President Taft and
his Augusta trip and many persons
GRO watching to see what the result
of his stay there will be.
The memorable occasion, just pc
fore his inauguration, when MI.
Taft made his first prolonged stay
in the south and captivated the peo-
nle of Augusta, has never been 1or-
gotten. So well pleased with the
Georgians was the president that ne
told them then and there that ne
would come back to see them AGAIN
and that promise is now fulhlled.
on the other hand, no prince or po-
tantate could have received more al
tention than did Mr.. Taft. The ad-
miratfon was mutual, and in time
the chief executive let the Georglans
know what he thought of them by
handing down some good polltlcal
appointments, these, of course, pelhS
in the usual order of things.
Since the President is back IN
Georgia again the natural assump-
tion is that sometime in the future
there may be another good snaKlhs
of the plum tree, and though no
more supreme court appointments
are to be made yet awhile, as was
the case when Justice Lamar was
appointed. there is room for a good
man somewhere in the federal SER
vice when the president believes
the government needs one. There
fore, it would not be surprising
should more Georgians land in good
places in the near future.
When William J. Bryan came to
Washington a day or two ago TO
take a peep at the political situation
there was very little enthusiasm to
be noticed. The Great Nebraskan'
slipped in, went to the home OF a
friend, and then just as quietly shpp-
ed out again. No band met him at
the railroad station, there was no
noisy demonstration in the public
streets, and all told not more than
fifty persons in Washington knew
that he was here 1t is true that
the same little band of faithful lieu
tenants of Mr.. Bryan were on hand,
but even their stock of enthusiasm
was low.
AS matter of fact Mr.. Bryan has

poor policy for him to remain around
Washington telling congress what it
should do with regard to the initi-

which are to be taken up in all

AS a result of the failure of con-
gress to pass the reappOrtionment
bill there will be no enlargement or
Encouragement of the house of repre-

situation has been brought about by
reason of the fact that Elliott
