EASTER MAIL
RUSH IS FELT
10000 Post Cards Received
Parcel Post Wagon.

I'm the spring the young mans
fancy gently turns to thoughts OF
love-" and that makes an enormous
lot of work at the postoffice accord
ing to the local postal clerks. It is
estimated that some 10000 Easter
postal cards and booklets will have
passed through the local postoffice
the last three days of the week.
Never before have the postal facili-
ties been so crowded with these mis-
sives. Thursday and Friday there
were 14,000 one-cent stamps and
$4,000 two-cent stamps sold at this
place.
Not only are the post cards and
booklets crowding the mail service,
but Easter gifts of more substan-
tial nature are being sent through
the parcel post. Odd. light-looking
packages, with handle with care"
printed on the outside wrapper, are
numerous among the lot received the
past few days. From all appearances
these are hats from the New York
millineries for milady's use.
The parcel post wagon will proba-
bly, make two trips through the city
today, as it was found necessary to
make an early morning trip on which
was delivered about ninety packages.

POOR QUALITY
OF SAND USED
May Reject Supply for Water
Street Pavement.

Sand delivered for use IN con-
struction of the Water street pave
ment may be rejected by the city be-
cause of the presence of an excess
amount of loan. 1t is claimed that
samples analyzed showed thirteen
per cent of loan, whereas the max
imum percentage of that kind OF soil
In sand allowed on public work is
five per cent. AS large amount of
the sand has been delivered on the
ground, hardship would be caused
the contractors if the material had
to be replaced.
When delivery was first started,
Alderman William c. Wilson called
the attention of Chairman F. A. Sea-
man, of the street committee, to the
subject, he claims. City Surveyor
S. J. Mason has since been apprised
of the alleged defective sand. He
declared today that he would make
test to determine the fitness of the
same.
Peter ]. McKeon, of the contract
ing firm OF Graham and McKeon,
who furnished the sand as sub-con-
tractor for the Hastings Pavement
Company which has the general paw
ing contract, declares the sand is all
right. He denies it contains an ex-
cess amount of loan, stating sam
plew hich Alderman Wilson proba
bly, secured from near a bank, might
have been filed with loan taken
from the bank, but generally, he
claimed, the sand was sufficiently
good for the job. Mr.. McKeon said
the paving work would be started
about April Is.

Thugs at Harrison.

Henry Kress, a draughtsman of
277 Front street, this city, was held
UP and brutally assaulted by two
thugs while crossing a bridge be-
tween Harrison and Newark shortly
after o'clock yesterday afternoon.
He sustained a nasty scalp wound
ard was dazed by the blow which
caused it. Nothing was taken from
him. as the robbers were probably
frightened away by the approach of
other workmen. They attempted the
daring deed in a bold manner in
broad daylight. The Harrison police
believe they know them and will en-
deavor to make arrests before night.
Krcss, who is twenty-three years
old, Is employed as a draughtsman
In the Worthington pump works at
Harrison. He quit work as usual at
6 o'clock yesterday afternoon. 1t
was while he was running to the

this city that he was felled by blow
delivered by one of the thugs He
was crossing a bridge in rather
lonesome spot at the time. He saw
two men approaching him but little
thought they would attempt 30 dar-
Ing a deed in daylight. Kress sus-
tanned a terrific blow over the head
which was probably delivered by a
blackjack. He fell to the ground and
the robbers began searching his
pockets.
Other workmen, at whose ap-
proach the high waymen fed, aided
Kress and he was able to go home
after a brief period. Upon reaching
his home he reported the incident to
the local police. They notified the
Harrison authorities, who said they
had been apprised of it and were
working on the case.
