There is little or no apprekension In official quar- skips is meant as a menace to American interests in the “hilippines.

From the Chicago Chrenicle. There is a post office in the southern part of this state that claims the world's record for the delaying, withholding and concealment of mail. A few days ago it was noticed that some mail postmarked 1888, 1890, 1891 and 1892 was being returned to the writers, and had thus been gone from six to ten years be- fore being returned. This aroused curiosity and inquiry was made. The postmaster appointed to this famous office in 1880 was censidered a very good man, but did not pessess the qualifications necessary to con- duct a post office, and so his daughter look- ed after the management of the office. There were frequent complaints soon after by patrons of the office that they did not receive all the mail due them, but these complaints were not made to the Post Of- fice Department, as the man in charge of the office was considered entirely honest. So matters drifted along until 1890, when the postmaster died, and his daughter was appointed to succeed him. After that com- plaints were more frequent than ever, com- ing from publishérs and business men as well as private citizens. Two years ago she failed to make two quarterly reports to the authorities at Washington. This aroused the department, and an inspectér was sent there to make an investigation, and he made quite a dis- covery. She had in front of the office a large wooden case with a closed back, ex- cept for one delivery, window about 10. by 12 inches. Thiy;:completely obstructed the view of the public aw to what was back of the wooden stritetu When the inxpecto¥ entered this part of the office he found more than two wagon loads of mail stacked upon the floor like stuve wood. He spent two busy days ex- amining this astonishing amount of unde- livered mail. When he had finished he looked more like a wayfarer than an in- spector. This ended the duties of the post- mistress. The inspector supposed that he had recovered all the mati, as he made a thorough investigation, and was informed by the postmistress that~it was all, and, strange as it may seem, the book accounts of the money order department were found to be correct. In August, 1897, the incumbent took charge of the office. A short time after- ward the former postmistress was taken sick and many neighbors called to see her. One of them, more inquisitive than the rest, removed a nail from a door leading to the stairway. He entered a room above the former post office and there his discover- jes were astonishing. Heaped on the floor no less than three wagon loads of the accumulations of years. The man who made th iscovery notified the pres- ent postmaster, who in turn notified the in- Spector, and he was no other than the man who had two years previously spent two days in the same building. The postmaster was instructed to take charge of all this mail and deliver or re- turn all the fi mail that he could, and inder to the dead letter office. This work done by the post- master and five assi y found the room, wh 18 feet, to be filled to a depth of about two and one-half feet with mail. Here were also found eighteen mail sacks and one pouch, all filled with mail. Boxes, chests, barrels and closets were also full. Mail was found in the walls of the room as well as in the space between ceiling and floor. A number of checks and notes were found. The amount called for by checks was as much as $400, while s notes were for as much as $1,627. note of the latter amount should have been sent to an Illinois post office of same name. Deeds and mortgages were also Scattered about. Thére are in the United States thirty-three post offices by the same name as the one under discussion, and nearly all of these are represented by some of the mail. Over 200 letters were found With the corner torn off where the stamp should have been. What the object was in thus accumulat- ing and storing away mall is a mystery which will likely never he Enon cor A GOOD TIGER sTorY. How a Man Escaped From the Den of the Beast. From the Cornhill. The shikari was a little stunned by the Uger’s onslaught; he recovered conscious- ness, however, In a few minutes, when he found, himself lying on the tiger's back and in full sail toward the heart of the jungle. Fortunately, he was not seriously hurt, as the tiger had gripped him by the arm just above the elbow. There he lay quite helpless; what was he to do? Awp movement on his part might have made his condition far worse; so he lay per- fectly quiet, and shut his eyes as if he were dead.» Soon the tiger arrived at his den, which Was no more than a hollow scooped in the-sand at the foot of a large tree. Theye the tiger deposited him and covered hini ovér loosely with some sand. Luckily for him his face was upper- most when he felj, otherwise he would have had no other alternative between death by suffocation and ently from the tiger if he had dared to As it was, he could manage to bred the Sently, and even to Sey an occasiohal glimpse under his eye- s. After this ops eration of partial burial the tiger ran ahead & few yards, but r turned instantly"as if*he had some misgiv- ings in his mftid. “Geeing, however, all safe, he bounded forth, but again return- ed to make aggurance doubly sure. He kept up this method of self-persuasion for a few times till, feeling quite certain about the matter, he’ fina went away on his mission. After ‘waiting a few minutes to See that the tiger had really gone, our shikari sprang up_and climbed the tree just over the den, and hid himself well among the leaves. ‘He had not long to wait for the denouement, for the tiger soon re- turned, accompanied by a tigress and a couple of cubs dike a generous and ex- emplary husband and father, the tiger evi- dently scorned to eat on the They came along with mane a joyful cat-like gambol in anticipation of the great feast, and found the den—empty! Such a lamentation over the lost dinner then arose as was never heard before in the whole animal jom; in-fact, the tigers per- sisted so long in their piteous cries that our shikari began to have some doubts as to the righteousness of defrauding the poor creatures of their hard-earned wages; but he was prevented from, offering himself to them by the thought of his own wife and children, whose upon him was ob- viously NAVY PERSONNEL BILL.

From the Boston Post. Francis Palacio is a dog; fancier in St Louis. He speaks good Spanish and poor English. On Chestnut near 18th street a young woman lives who has a penchant for pets, especially dogs and birds, and she boasts of owning the most linguistical par- rot in town. This parrot speaks Spanish much better than it does English, having formerly lived in the City of Mexico. The parrot delights to screech vile nish epi- thets, especially to strangers, and is a blackguard of no mean vocabulary. The other evening Palacio went to the house to sell the owner of the Spanish- speaking parrot a lap dog, and he will not soon forget the experience he had there. To Palacio’s surprise while he was dilating on the rare points of his pet canine to the mistress the parrot applied a profane Span- ish epithet to the new pet. Palacio under- took to make friends with the parrot, spoke to it affectionately in Spanish and finally induced the bird to perch on his shoulder, dividing his time between the mistress and the parrot, speaking broken English to the former and pure hidalgo to the latter. The parrot called Palacio a hard name, and he slapped it in reproof. This so enraged his birdship that he savagely stuck his beak into Palacio’s left ear and tore the flesh of the lobe in two. Again and again the par- rot struck Palacio in the face before it could be jerked away. So painful were the dog fancier’s injuries that he had to have them treated by Dr. Johnson at the city dispensary. —______+ e+ -_____ His Perplexing Situation. From the Philadelphia Times. ‘The fair girl clung to him despairingly. Her golden tresses swept over his manly chest and her blue eyes, filled with tears, glistened in the dim gaslight. “You must not go. Don’t go, Reginald,” the pleaded. His name was John, hut she called him Reginald. “I don't want you to go.” She unclasped one hand and began to srcoth his hair. Jt had always worked & \é before this, she murmured to herself. “Don't go, pleas His voice shook, but he was firm. “Duty calls me. I must go,” he said, huskily, not daring to meet her eye: “Oh, you horrid thing; you never think of me. It’s always that horrid, nerrid duty.” She looked at him narrowly. His glance was directed sternly at a still life picture of oranges, fish, cigarettes and ice water. She made en effort, and tears well- ed in her eyes. “If you go,” she choked. you go—l’ll—I'li—cry—I'll—cry—so—there.' And she buried her head, with its mass of golden hair, on his broad chest, while her shoulders heaved convulsively. What could he do? What could he say? He looked helpiessly at oe fair cap oy girl. Then he faltered, “Don’t ery. Eh,I'll do any- thing—I'll promtse—I won't go. Don’t The mood of the burden in his arms changed. “You wcn't go?” She stiffened in his arms. “Why, John Augustus Thomas, you horrid, mean thing. You won’t go? You Just will 80, so there. Why, Blanche Cres- son’s flance, Bob Somers, {s going, and she’s just made him e red, white and biue sofa pillow to use in camp, and I’ve started one for you, and all the girls will laugh at me if you don’t, and you're horrid if you don’t, so there. They’lt all laugh at me. Oh, you must go.” This time she was cry- ing in earnest. An hour later John Augustus Thomas de- parted a sadder, wiser man. He will enlist. An@ the fair girl will weep again when he marches away to the front. If you want anything, try an ad. in The Star.
