POST NO BILLS.

Before Post Office Inspector Neil left here the other day he tore down all the notices, legal, judicial, muni- cipal, etc, from the walls of the post office and told the postmaster "alIow no notices to be tackled up on the walls of the post office, expect import ant notices pertaining to the postal service. and then put them on the black board" It is thought that peO- pie coming in during the evening to read the notices would turn On the lights and neglect to turn them otf again, thus running up the light bills without good reason. The forbidden notices include the famous city coun- ci ordinances.

pairing Occasioned by the unusual ma
rine activity resulting from the present
European war, is the plan announced
by J. J. Kane today. While Mr.. Kane
has been considering the construction
OF dry dock and marine railway for
several months, it had not been his
intention 60 spend more than 100000
at first But the aid OF financial inter
ests OF the north having been enlisted
and the need for such repair station
in Galveston having become acute, it
Is now decided to spend $1OOO,OOO.
The announcement of the naval poll
cy OF President Wilson and his cabi-
net, has also been large determin-
ing factor, The policy, if executed,
will give the eastern shipyards more
orders than they can fill for several
years, as many of them already have
orders booked now for the next two
or three years.

Eyeryonce In a while some trivial
incident happens which brings iorciDly
10 the attention OF the thinking person
the helplcssness Of man with all his
boasted power before even the small
est natural force.
or course much has been done In the
way of utilizing natural forces ana

accomplishments in the field OF cleo

brown-winged English sparrow, the
other day stopped the entire street car
service of San Antonio for nearly an
hour. and for that length of time halt
I'd all electrcally.drWon machinery in
the city.
The loss of time caused by the little
sparrow would, If 1t could be computed,
aggregate staggering total-not to
mention the money loss.
When the electric power was shut

TO short circuit somewhere along the
line. trouble" men were sent out In
all directions to seek the cause Finally
II was located
little sparrow had settled on n guy
wire. then fluttered over on a feed

Thus can so insignificant a thing as

flight from field TO nest, confound the
work of scientist and skilled laborer.
