(Special to The Builetin.) Washington, May 3—Senator Bran- degee today called the attention of the postal authorities ta the complaints against the service in the city of Wil- limartic It is claimed by the sena- tor's ‘correspondents that the service has’ ste: srown poorer, and since the ectablishment of the new federal hullding ia worse than ever, One man writés that years ago he had three deliveries a day, and without notice a few years ago one delivery was dis- pensed with, while now, with the new building within a few blocks of his residence, he reccives the same serv- ice that a rural route is getting, one delivery per day. One “cause of complaint, which is voiced by all complainants, is' the lo- cation of the federal building, the site being selected and the builMng erected by the. treasury department.

LORIDA ROADS Praised by Waestport Man—How Oys. ter Shells Are Utilized by Convict Laborers. Robert T. Less returned to West- port a few days age from his estate in Orlando, la., where he passed the winter, He describes the roads in Florida as finely built and well kept. Many of them are shell roads, made of In some parts of tha state there are vast heaps, or hills, of ovster shelis, supposed to have been accumu ed by the Indians, who re- sorted to Florida from all parts of the country, to get oysters and bhave an outing. Many of the good roads\in the south are bullt by conviots, and th appears to be a very' good way in which to employ conviet labor, as It is eheap and there is no possibility of a strike.
