It has not bin many years since the mail clerk was nohln thujn sl sUv to the ser vice.

Tfce runs were long- and tiring, and wdien th bis car ran in the station at the end seveif or eieht worn-out, half sick mail clerics would climb out with hardly strength to so to their homes or rooms fi rest. BCSt by wise legislation this condition of afidtirs has in a great measure been Improved, and although sjme of the postal runs are long and hard work, they ciannot be compared with the old-time run that in many oase covered a period of qver twenty-four hours. In Che feistral and iJaatwrn states the postal runs re by far the most difficult, not ur.Jy of the Increased ni'mber of stations, but owinp to their near proslnjitv. For instance, working mail out of Cincinnati is a very different thin fron runnim? out of Sr. Fran-cisco.

The out of the latter place arer for the iv.ont part for cities east of the Bookies, with a umall scatterinjf mail of course for way postofneca which has to be looked after and net carriel by Its destination. petting fifty miles outside of San Francisco the way stations besln to et scarce and are few and far between, and the only hrd work left for the postal. th sorting and olasylns tiie Iiastern mails, with probably a few hours' work on locs'l post stations, the mail for which is tiasifled at tlif San Francisco ofiice. But how very different is the postal clerk's tHsk eoiiifr out of Cincinnati. The way station mail Is of course placed in certain bas at the postctfice, but this ha to be opened and sorted before the train arrives at the first station, say five or nix miles from town.

Then the mail is taken on at this town and rlne times o'it of ten Is sortM and "mall for the next station, three miles beyond, is ready on arrival and drooped off.

There Is a box for each station alonir the line and the letters po in them with a light- rdnir-1 ke fash that would make an or dinary man's head swim.

They shoot out of the clerk's hand like bullets from a Gatiinsf xun and they hit the mark nearly every time.

David Jones was given a hearing be fore Alderman McMasters yesteruay afternoon on a charge of forcible entry and detainer made by James AIcDade. a saloonkeeper at 1502 Penn avenue.

About two months ago Jones, who has a wne and family, was about to be thrown out of house and home for non-pa or rent. He had no work and Mcuaae, ne-ing a widower with a smail boy, told Jones If he would lake care of the boy he would allow him to occupy the rooms above the saloon at 1502 I'enn avenue. Jones agreed to this and moved his family there. He and his wife papered and whitewashed the rooms and made them comfortable. But about a month ago Ale Dade went to Atlantic uiy anu there met a woman whom he married ana brought home with hirn.

Jones and his wdfe were told to leave the boy and also the rooms over the saloon. Jones, however, had no place to go, nor littk work, and he refused to vacate the Ahnlses. The alderrRkn reserved his decision until to-morrow. HOSPITABLE IF SMOlfcY. Triluite to Pittuhurah from the Sunny Sonth.

He testified that on June 6 last Tressell went to him and upon representing that he owned a sawmill and had negotiated the purchase of 4W acres of timber lr Westmoreland county, which would cut 8,000 feet cf good lumber to the acre and needed to make a payment on the property he secured that sum of the firm of Mead Speer. Tressell, he said, was to pay them the $1,500 in lumber at 25 per I.OOu feet. Some days ago. Air. Soeer testified.

they found out that Tressell had deceived the firm. He was shipping some lumber to them, but it was of an inferior oual- 5ty. They went up to look at the timber and found that it would not cut over 1,000 feet of salable limber to th'j acre. They then brought the suit for false pretense. C.

E. Regal, A. L. ATartin, the coke man, and a number of others testified that the timber would not cut over 1,000 feet to the acre. Attorney Watson attempted to draw from the fir't witness that sr.
