RJTSY CHRISTMAS
 AT POST OFFICE
All Records Broken by Mail and Parcel Post and Force
 Is Tired

After handling the heaviest busi- ness in the history of the office, the employees of the post office today set tied down to the regular routine, tired but satisfied, with the, excellent results. Probably the most enthusi astic person about the building to- day was Postmaster Delaney, whose face beamed with smiles of satisfac tion as he commented upon the re- suits From carly morning until late night during the past week the en- ployes battled with the heavy influx of mail as it poured into the office. Not a minute was wasted, the "boys' leaving their duties only a sufficient length of time to partake of their food. On Saturday evening, they were the guests of the D ostm aster who had supper served in the office
 For the first time in many years some of the carriers were able to have their Christmas dinner at home over half of the force completing their rounds before 1 o'clock. Others came in at various times, and at 5 o'clock all of the carriers had finished their duties. In the parcel post depart ment, Foremen Meehan and his charges found plenty to do through out the day, seven teams and twelve men keeping on the jump.
 Superintendent James B. Grace of the clerks estimated today that the increase in mail matter this year over that of last was at least twenty-five per cent. Despite this, there was not an evening when, at the closing time, every piece of first class outgoing mail was not ready for shipment. Thurs day and Friday were the heaviest days, it is estimated by Superintend- ent Grace between 500 and GOO sacks of matter leaving the office. As usual there was the heavy supply of post cards to be handled, but at closing time Saturday evening, every one had been sorted. The employees were re- remembered by outside patrons of the office, who sent in cigars. Every where there are words of, appreciation for the work of the local office in giv ing prompt service.

Schoonels Ashore at Nantucket,

Nantucket, Mass, Dec. 26.-The schooner Roger Drury was sunk off Great Point, the schooner Daniel Me- Loud was stranded on the northern end of the, Rip off the Point and the British schooner Ravolta was wrecked on the southern end of the Rip in northwest gale today. After the coast guards of the Coskata station had been assured of the safety of all those aboard these three vessels, they were called on to watch another schooner, which was dragging her anchors and in danger of striking the Rip.
 The Roger Drury was engaged in the coastWise trade between New York and St. John, N. B. Her crew, in small boat, landed near the light house, where they found shelter.
 It was soon after daybreak when the Ravolta was forced on to the Rip. Captain Sabin and his four men were taken off in the Coskata life boat. When the Daniel McLoud stranded. her crew also was brought ashore in the life boat
 Both the Ravolta and Daniel Me- Loud are coal laden bound from New Jersey ports to the eastward. Little hope of saving either was expressed by the coast guards

WHOLE FAMILY MURDERED,
Five Negroes Heid for Wholesale.
 Killing

Minden, La., Dee. 26.-Eive negroe suspects were under arrest here xaday in connection with the killing of four members of the family of John Nelson Reeves at their home, about nine miles from Minden Sunday night, although the authorities appear to have nothing definite upon which to base a charge against any of them.
 There is no doubt, the police say, that robbery inspired the crime and that the men responsible for it got away with considerable booty. Mrs. Reeves is said recently to have re- ceived a legacy of $3,50O and to have kept it in a chest With about $500 Reeves had saved. The chest was broken open and it's contents taken.
