IMPROVED MAIL SERVICE"
Splendid Opportunity To Get Balt
imore Mail Much Earlier in
the Day.
If the investigation which the
Poetoffiee Department will make in
a short time proves satisfactory,
there is every prospect that, in
stead of waiting until twelve o’clock
at noon for mail, patrons of the
Cambridge poetoffiee will get their
daily papers in time to read them
at breakfast, and their business
mail several hours earlier than at
present. The service which the
Eastern Shore Development Steam
ship Co. is now giving enables the
shippers of freight to deliver it at
the Company’s receiving depot in
Baltimore until six o’clock in the
evening, and it is delivered in Cam
bridge the next morning at or be
fore six o’clock. Those who have
recently had experience with the
delay of the other boat by fog,
low tides, etc., realize that this
means much to the local stores.
In connection, however, with the
proposed new mail route, it should
be borne in mind that not only will
Cambridge benefit, but persons all
along the Cambridge and Seaford
branch would receive their mail
several hours earlier than at pres
ent. The following schedule shows
the changes which would be made
If the proposed service is adopted,
and it is expected that the Cam
bridge Board of Trade and all of
onr business men will stand solidly
together in an effort to secure it:

Your Appearance Speaks For
Itself.
It is the duty of everyone to
look their very best. Putting the
best foot forward is not only pleas
ing, but it is good business.
Your income and its amount has
' a great deal to do with the way you
can dress, but not everything. Al-
most as much depends on how you
spend your money. If you buy as
the impulse strikes you it is a cer
tainty that you will not always get
full "value Your buying should be
done with forethought. You can
gain full knowledge of when.where
and what to buy in a few moments’
time each day.
It takes no longer than that to
go through the advertisements of
the merchants of this city, the best
of whom advertise in THE BAN
KER. Read these advertisements
closoly and constantly each day,
then you can b© sure of getting the
best that money can buy at the low
est price for which it can be sold.

Necessary to Install Electric
Lights Throughout En

Dr. Brice W. Goldsborough.chief
of staff at the Cambridge Hospital,
has awarded to the Cambridge Gas,
Electric Light & Power Co., the
contract for installing electric cur
rent and lights in the Hospital. He
was able to do this through the
generosity of United States Sena
tor William P. Jackson, who very
kindly authorized him to do so at
his expense. In addition to the
lights needed for lighting the build

complete fitting up of the X-Ray

at once and .will be rushed to com

DENOUHCES MOTORBOAT BILL
Capt. S. H. Larmore, of Schooner
Grace Bennet Gives Reasons
For Opposing Motorboat
Bill.
Editor of The Sun:
Sir. —I have thought several
times since Mr. Linthicum Intro
duced the bill in reference to the
motorboats that I would write The
Sun on this subject, and am in
duced to do so by the letter of Feb
ruary 27, from that wonderful man,
Capt. Vivian Phillips, who has the
welfare of the public at heart to
such an extent that he would have
Congress pass laws to protect his
interest in his business, which is
the tugboat business, but would
lead the people to believe that he
wanted to protect them against pos
sible danger.
It was my privilege to read that
bill, and Mr. Linthicum was very
particular in presenting this bill to
say that it was gotten up by the
tugboat men of Baltimore city.
Now, it does not take a man as
wise as Solomon to see through this
whole thing, particularly when Mr.
Phillips says the small schoooners
pay $1.50 and that it is worth $2
to do the work. Anyone can see
that Mr. Phillips Is one of those
big-hearted fellows by reading his
letters. He would also have you
believe that the captains of the bay
vessels are a particularly hard class
of people to deal with; that it is
asi much to collect a bill as it is to
do the work, and 25 per cent, he
never gets. Poor man! What
a deplorable state of affairs for such
a man as Captain Vivian Phillips, a
man of such wonderful ability, hav
ing to make a living by working for
such people as he would have the
public believe these bay captains are.
I would suggest that he go in poli
tics and become a leader in his ward
or go in the saloon business. They
are the chaps that wear a large dia
mond in their shirt and can live the
life of a gentleman, and not be pa
rading around under false colors and
making it harder for honest men to
make a living, or men that stay out
in the cold and sit up nights plying
the Chesapeake and its tributaries,
when Captain Phillips is home in his
warm bed.
Now as to the licensed men he
would have you carry, how about
them? Why there are numbers of
! them living in Baltimore city that
get up at 5 o’clock in the morning
this season of the year,, eat their
i breakfast and put their dinner in a
lunch box, go aboard of some ittlle
old tugboat and run around the har
bor all day, and go home again at
dark, and they have never been out
of sight of the smoke of the city in
their lives. But they are licensed
men, perhaps for Patapsco river or
down the bay as far as Sandy Point
which is 25 miles. And Capt. Phil
■ lips does not hesitate to tell you
these men have to serve three years
to obtain this wonderful Informa
tion so they could get licenses; that
a captain who trades from Phila
-1 delphia down to the Chesapeake and
its tributaries, and on down through
the North Carolina sounds and their
tributaries, or anywhere there Is a
load and water enough to float his
’ vessel is incompetent, and that it
* Is not safe to get near one of these
. vessels, if you happen to have a mo
tor in your yawl, without having
some of these licensed men aboard.
I wish to state for the benefit of
the public that I am in a vessel of
210 tons registers and that I went
from Newbern to Morehead City, a
distance of forty miles with a sev
en and a half horse power engine

in my yawl, through a canal and a

used my yawl all the way for power
and consumed 20 gallons of gasoline
After loading with lumber I came
back through the canal to the Neuse
river with 10 gallons of gasoline,
and with no other motor power but
my yawl, while another captain, in
the same class vessel, who did not
have any power of his own, paid $55
for the same distance. I will also
state that I know Captain Blake and
read his letter in The Sun, and it
was a true statement, and I failed
to see the amusement in it that
Captain Phillips claims he does.
I would also tell the public that
Captain Phillips’ statement that the
fines on motorboats since January

BUSH FOB NEW NICKELS.
First Supply Received In Cam
bridge, Direct From The Mint,
By Hurley & Williams.
The new coin Is the same size
as the old nickel, but there the
similarity ceases. On one side of
the coin is a bas-relief of a buffa
lo, with head lowered and hoofs
raised, as if he were getting ready
to charge seme offending enemy.
Just under the animal is “five
cents.” in small letters. This is
the only indication anywhere on
the coin of its value.
The reverse side is wholly taken
up with a clear-cut profile of an
American Indian. ' It is the largest
face on any of the American, coins,
and the features are brought out
shapely.
The new, novel and much-desired
coins are for circulation and those
desiring same can get them as
change at Hurley & Williams’ store,
where a large supply has just been
received.
