Notice 10 Patrons Of tho Chris

beginning Saturday. Goth instant,
p the mail heretofore carried by the s..
S. Romantic from San Juan via Saint
Thomas 70 ChrisjianSted will be forward
Cd by the s. 5. Catherine on a iml!ar
schedule with the exception that the
steamer will not call at this port. The
mail will be transported by land from
I'rederiksted and will in al! probability
often be received here as late as 5 90 p.
m. for which reason only the first class
matter viii be distributed and delivered
the same evening. PeriahabIe matter
received outside will also be delivered il
called for before delivery is concluded.
AS usual it will be our aim to give the
best and most complete service and pub
lie cooperation will do much TO aid this
along the following ines: by securing
10 .taRe S amps, registration and money
orders before the mail arrives 50 that eur
attention shall DOT be divided between
distribution Of mai, and handling Of
routine work. This Of course applies
only to when the mail arrives before the
closing hour on Saturday, as positively
no other business viii be attended TO
except the distribution and delivery of
mail if il arrives after the clD5l1g hour.
Requests for service not open to the gen
eral public Will not be granted jndiyi-
dualS as a matter Of course, aud they ere
not anticipated. The delivery of perish
able mail will invariably be made at the
back Of the Office, bat patrons are not
admitted to the W0rkrOom. The Postal
Laws forbid unauthorized persons being
in the workrooms of post offices when
mail is being opened, and those who
make it a practice OF using the back en-
trance to the office will kindly understand
this. Clearly if one or two or more per-
sons may be admitted into the WOrkroom
ADD expedited there for their special
convenience the whole public may be
admitted which would be manifestly
irregular. The demand for service on
Sunday morning has reached the point
where it has become a burden to US and
actually impairs efficiency in making up
the outgoing mail for which purpose we
are on dIry on Sunday mJrling, and
hereafter no business whatever which
calls for the immediate service Of a clerk
will be transacted. The mail box at the
entrance to the Office is cleared latest
9.45 a. M. Sunday, and the drops inside
to the moment the mail is actually dis
patched from the office. It will, there
fore, not be necessary TO inquire whether
mail may be deposited in these drops.

camp last year, and were pleased with
the outing afforded them at govern
ment expense 1t is believed num-
erous applications for enlistment will

camp.
Details of Training
In connection with the camp, the
following statement has been issued .
aside from providing for the govern
ment a trained body of men in case
of war, and the patriotic services that
n man renders the government, these
camps provide a most ideal and help
full method of spending a vacation.
With the proverbial early to bed and
early to rise routine, good and whole
some, well-cooked food physical drill
for two hours daily, the military
drih which gives the soldierly poise
of the body and develops the adroit-
ness and the correct carriage which
follows in after life, the three weeks
spent at one of these camps will turn
a man out, renewed in bodily vigor
as alert as an eagle, and a mind
full of new impressions.
"The routine of the camp requires
far the period, enforced dicipline in
he matter of regular living. Habits of
dress, cleanliness, sanitation, drill and
exercise are carefully watched and are
required of each man who attends.
A man subjects himself to these rules
of the camp for his own benefit.
When he returns from camp he is a
man in mind and body, and such a
start may often prove to be the turn
ing point in his career toward sue
cess, for health is the first essential
tO success"

rant for the alleged law violator, and
started TO serve the warrant.
LOADS OUTFIT IN AUTO
The man, it is claimed, was "tip-
ped OFF, that the officers were on their
way to arrest him. He quickly pack
ed his still and ten gallons Of moon"
in an automobile, and, stepping ON the
gas made his way as rapidly as pos
sible south over the North and South
highway hoping to outrun the Idaho
county officers.
+. On his way, according to reports re
ceived here, he stopped at a store at
Lucille, and at the point of
a gun held up the storekeeper and
forced him to drink of the product Of
alleged illicit Slate creek distiHery.
Proceeding short distance on the
highway, it is reported, the so-called
moonshiner experienced trouble with
his car, and drove the car to the side
Of the road in order to repair it.

Presently there came along an
obliging gentleman from the south.
Out of courtesy of one motorist for
another who is in distress, the late
arrival halted his car and helped the
man with the so-called moonshine re-
pair his machine. When the trouble
was remedied, the man who had lately
been in distress presented the obliging
stranger with full quart of moon
shine, in appreciation of the favor, il
is related.
The obliging motorist was a deputy
sheriff from Valley county.
The Valley county deputy, knowing
a federal man was in the neighbOr-
hood, soon communicated with the gov

shortly afterward encountered the
man fastening away with the alleged

They halted him and with guns
Ieveled, told him to stick up his hands
He did so in a halfway fashion, and
then suddenly thrust his right hand

gun. Before he grabbed tho gun, the
federal man raped the alleged moon
sinner over the head with his pistol.
