Mr. Charles Hood, the representative of LUTHERAN, | CHURCH OF TH e. and 2d st. WB Patan, at the Heurich Brewing Co., said it was an un- ck, recently from Hawaii, Just order, as it carried with its enforce- a ae ment the closing of a number of reputable places that did not have a scratch against them. Mr. Frank Madigan, who represents the Washington Brewing Co., said the opinion of the attorney and the decision of the Com- missioners was no news to him. He had expected such action all along. He would say, however, that it was a most unjust de- cision. Not as far as the Commissioners were concerned, for they had to decide up- on the law, but unjust because it would close up a number of places that the Com- missioners already were willing to approve. This was the busiest season of the year and the hardship would be great. Gees Aa stiena The Postal Card Controversy. Postmaster General Bissell, after a thor- ough examination of the postal cards now being offered by Mr. Woolworth, the con- tractor, has decided to permit him to con- tinue under his contract so long as the pa- per furnished is up to the contract stand- ard. Mr. Woolworth now has an order for 4,000,000 cards, which, when filled, will be shipped to Washington. Regular daily orders will be sent to Mr. Woolworth begin- ning January 1. —_—___—-.-—____—_.

WINTER RESORTS... The Rush is Already On and the Post Office Busy. Official Advice as to Sending Presents Letters for Santa Claus—For- eign Mail First. ‘The mail tells of the approach of Santa Claus. The pressure of Yuletide corre- spondence is beginning to felt, and postal people are girding their loins the rush. They will lend a hand to Washingtonians give the patron saint of winter his annual embrace, and will exert themselves in making his reception a suc- cess. Mighty mails always mark the on- coming of the hero of the season. As yet, the tidal wave has not disturbed the even tenor of the postal service, but the sounds and signs which tell of its advance are heard and seen. Preparations for the post and parcel flood are being rapidiy perfect- ed. Substitute carriers are held in readi- ness to execute the orders of their chiefs and to distribute that mail which will Kindle fires on cheerless hearths and light hope in hopeless hearts; which will tell people that they live in the memory of absent friends; that distance is no obstacie to unity, and that the season is one of hap- piness and love. Sending Presents. Today there is a slightly abnormal move- ment of outgoing mail. Washingtonians are thinking of the friends in far-off lands and sending their tokens of love, so that they may reach their destination by Christ- mas. Europe is the main objective point of this mail, and the number of packages addressed to Ireland and Germany prove how well those countries are represented here, and how strongly the memories of home cling round a population. Many of these par- cels will find their way to the dead letter office, if history is to repeat itself, as in past years a large percentage of the Christ- mas mail finding its way into the dead Jetter office has been just this class of matter. There are two reasons for this. It is addressed, in a large number of cases, by people who are not quite up to Ameri- can postal requirements, and then many articles mailable under the postal rules and regulations of the United States are unmailable under the laws of the Universal Postal Union. A good deal of the postal outflow is addressed to long-distance points in the boundless west, where the slow-going star route coaches hold sway and pursue their wild and woolly way. The swell of the incoming mail is scarcely felt as yet, and is a day. or so later in setting in this year than last. It will begin to manifest itself about Monday, and by the middle of the week will be here in a spasm. The au- thorities will have to hustle to handle it, Young America. A few of the usual Santa Claus letters have been received from Young America. They are addressed to Santa Claus, Kris Kringle, &c., and are variously signed Jim- my and Johnny, These letters are held be- cause of insufficient address. One young Washingtonian prays Santa to fetch him a gun, a sword and a belt, saying that ‘wants “ter lick the stuffin’ out’n Billie— what lives on the next square.” Sister Sue is on hand with her request for a doll, al- leging that her mamma is too poor to buy her the desired toy and that she places her trust in the bounty of Santa. Little Willie comes up smiling and says “plese unkel Santa plese tu sen me a perlice wissel and klub fer I want tu run in some of the othur fellers.”” Lighter This Yea: Because ef the recent money stringency the post office officials think that the Christmas mail of this year will be con- siderably lighter than that of last year. They also base this prediction on inter- views which they have had with merchants, who say that although the holiday trade is brisk it is below the standard for a corre- sponding time last year. The Christmas ar- rivals will set in about the 18th, the maxi- mum receipts will be reached on December 23, the decline will set in on December 24 and will remain stationary at about 150 per cent above normal till January 1. Then the ordinary conditions will be resumed and for several weeks the parcel mail will be sub- normal. the tor help The normal posting of packages at the Washington office is 450 per day. On De- 1,500; 20th, 4,000; cember 19 it will be about S 21st, 7,500; 224, 11,000; 284, 17,000; ‘h, 7,000, and from the 26th to the 3ist it will run about 1,000 a day. is based on the mail of last year and an allowance js made for the expected decrease. Official Advice. ‘The officials are ready to grapple with the new conditions. In order to prevent pointment as much as possible the city post office has issued a circular, which says among other things: “At this season of the year when persons are sending so many presents by mail, mis- takes in addressing the parcels are likely to occur unless unusual care is ex: by the sender, for, notwithstanding all the efforts-of the post office, some Christmas parcels will go astray, “TI would like to make a few suggestions, which, judging from the experiences of past years, may prevent the Christmas packages being sent to the dead letter office. “Do not wait until a day or two before Christmas to mail packages; mail early, etpecially those addressed to distant states and territories; wrap cerefully in strong paper and piace the name or Initials, togeth- er with the address of the sender, on the left hand corner of the wrapper to insure return in case of non-delivery. “Postage on merchandise is 1 cent for each ounce, unsealed, and must be fully prepaid; if sealed against inspection or if package contains written matter the parcel is subject to first-class postage, 2 cents for each ounce; limit of weight of merchandise, unsealed, in the United States is four pounds. “Merchandise is liable to be returned to sender for the following reasons: If it be misdirected or illegibly addressed; if it bears insufficient postage; if package con- tains unmailable matter; if package con- tains written matter when merchandise rates are paid. “Only bona fide samples of merchandise, unsealed, can be mailed to foreign countries. All sealed packages having the appearance of merchandise will be stamped ‘Liable to custom duty.’ FINANCIAL. WM. MAYSE & ©O.
