The Tunisian Posts.

The postal courier service Of Tunis
which ran between the years 1855 and
1875 is described in the "Revue Tuni-
sienne" by Mr.. Marcel Gandolphe. The
service covered the distance between
Tunis and Susa up to 1868, and then it
was extended to Sfax. The distance
between Tunis and Susa-a danger5ds
journey over not too easy country
was performed in "a hours and at one
stretch. Only once was the Tunis
courier behind his time, by II hours,
and that was the result of hair-raising
adventure. In 1864 times were Ger
tainly not good for couriers and way
laying on the road was not uncommon.
At that period there were only two
running out of the three Mohammeds,
who for many years had shared the
duty. Boutefeu, Becassine and Le
Chameau were names bestowed upon
them, the first because of his vivacity,
the second because Of his svelte ap-
pearance, and the third because of his
stature. The story of these dauntless
three OF the Tunisian postal service
in the light of the latest aerial postal
innovations is Of almost prehistoric
flavor.

lRASClBLE MEN OF GENIUS
William Morris and Charles Reade
Notable for Their Explosive Tenn
pers and Kindly Hearts.

In some recent "reminiscences Mr..
| Henry G. Barnwell says that the two
| literary men Of his acquaintance who
| possessed the greatest capacity for in
dignation were William Morris and
Charles Reade. Morris was perhaps
the more explosive; but his tempera-
mental outbursts were soon over and
had rarely any sequel. The violence
Of Charles Reade, though frequently
it, too passed like summer tempest,
was sometimes the precursor of
prolonged literary or legal battle; for
he had passion for litigation.
Assassination is too good for him;
the miscreant ought to be boiled in
oil ~ Mr.. Barnwell once heard Morris
roaring as he came into his presence.
Inquiry brought out the fact that tho
villainy for which such punishment
was deemed suitable was the crime Of
placing the pockets of new suit in
their conventional position instead of
arranging them In a novel and inter-
esting manner, suggested by Morris
But the unimaginative tailor was not
boiled; moreover, when, shortly ar
terward, he fell into difficulties, it WIS
Morris who advanced him money
enough to set him on his feet again.
Possibly Reade, who also was a gen.
erous-hearted man, might at need have
shown equal magnanimity toward
cobbler who aroused his ire. The man
had been recommended by his friend,
Wilkie Collins, and the next time the
two novelists met Reade lifted his
voice from afar.
"Confound you'll" he shouted iras-
chilly THAT cobbler you sent to me
is fraud-a rascal-a rogue-a
triple-dyed villain! He ought to be
choked with his own shoe pegs %
Wilkie Collins, laughing, attempted
some defense of his protege; but
Reade would not listen. Lifting his
hands to heaven like an Oriental call
ing down the vengeance of the gods,
he declared impressively, in true east
ern style:
MAY the heels Of the conscience
less wretch who recommended such &
cobbler be bistered, and may his
joints be cramped May bunions WIS.,
it his great toe and corns sit upon his
little one. and the wrath of the enemy
destroy his sole!'
Then, satisfied with the achievement
of an impromptu curse at once harm
less and horrifying. he accepted Col
Inns invitation to luncheon, and the
two walked amicably away together.

changes in the personnel of officials
sheriff, register of deeds and clerk of
court. 1t was an informal affair, with
no flourishes, the old officials simply
handing over the keys of departments
to their successors. The Censor edi-
tor and Billy Shower, county janitOr,
were about the only distinguished
characters who were witnesses to the
proceedings. 1t was a smokeless,
drinkless proceeding.
The county board finance committee,
consisting of Messrs. Thompson, Bal
ey and T. j. ThOrson, was present
and checked over the accounts of the
retiring officials.

PLEA FOR MEMORIAL TREES
Committee Would Have One Planted In Baptist churchyards as Tribute
 to Roger Williams.

A memorial tree in every Baptist -churchyard in the United States to commemorate establishment of re- hgious freedom and soul liberty is the plan of the Roger Williams National Memorial committee of the District of Columbia. The committee, which is in charge of the drive to raise fund for the erection in Washington of the Roger Williams memorial, announced It would ask every congregation in the country to plant a memorial tree.
 '"The tree stands for life" says a statement from the committee issued at the Washington headquarters, "and as the American Foresty association is urging the planting of memorial trees in honor of the American sailors and soldiers who gave their lives that po- litical freedom should not perish from the earth, so we will ask that trees be planted in honor of Roger Williams, who worked and suffered that religious liberty might be woven into the na- tonal fabric of America"
