To the Editor of The Evening Star: In justice to the postal service I think a word should be said in answer to the eomplaint of ‘252 Del. ave. n.e.” in tonight's Star. All mail for ‘252 Del. ave. n.e." ie handled through East Capitol station. The last delivery of mail from that station by carrier is at 4 p.m. ‘The mail delivered at 4 p.m. leaves the city Post office at 3:20 p.m., reaching East Capitol at 3:40 p.m. So any mail reaching the city post otlice at 3:30 p.m. from abroad would be too late for delivery by carrier at 4 p.m. It would, however, reach East Capitol station (ComMissioN rk oF DEEDS Fou EVERY 97 A1B aud Lercitory, Notary and U. 5.

Charles L. Siegel. one of the best known mu- sicians in Virginia, has died at Richmond. He was noted as a musical director and chorus leader. He could perform on most any mu- sical instrument, write from memory any or- dinary composition after hearing ita single time and was a genius in the matter of train choruses and directing. For a long while he was the director of the Gesangverein in Vir- ginia. He tramed and directed the chorus of 350 voices that sung at the laying of the corner | stone of the Yorktown monument, and on one occasion when Theodore Thomas was at Rich- mond that great musician paid him the high compliment of allowing him to direct the or- chestra, remarking that he was one of the finest directors he had ever seen.
