That wire worms have done considerable damage to the wheat crop in the London section, is the advice thai comet, from Edward a. Beals, locul weather official, who la traveling through the northwest on a tour oi inspection of the weather offices.

Tlnney, the mall carrier with John Robinson's Ten Big Shows, which will give afternoon and evening per formances in Pendleton on June 14, la a very important personage, at least in the eyes of the army of show folk whose mail goes through his hands. Also, excepting the managers and tick et sellers, he is perhaps the busiest man with the show, for he looks after practically ail the postal wants, (re ceiving letters, parcels, registered mail, post office money orders, etc.) lor no fewer than live hundred men and women. Quite a family, Isn't 111 You probably would not care for such a position. But it doesn't bother the circus mail carrier. He attends to his work, in conjunction with his othei duties (he is also musical director cnf. has charge of the several bands of the show), with as much ease as an healthy, able bodied person would ex perience in walking Along a highway He carries a spacious leatheh bag just like that of any regular U. S. mail carrier, but he wears no uniform. He has his credentials, and the uniform is not necessary. In every town and city in which the circus exhibits, he visits the post office thrice dally in the morning, at midnight, and late in the afternoon. He calls for all mail In care of the circus and subsequently gives the post master a list of the executives, agent, performers, musicians, etc., of the show and asks for their mail. Then he sends letters, parcels, papers, gets money orders cashed, sends money or ders, etc., etc. Moreover, he often times has to send and receive tele grams and express packages for mem bers of his big family. And he does it all very efficiently if he doesn't he'll have to step down and make room for someone else for In all branches of the circus business, effi ciency is the first requisite. The circus mall carrier Is, of course, a thoroughly reliable Individual an he has to be for he transacts hundreds of dollars' worth of business In the course of a week. The circus maj! carrier's compensa tion Is liberal, but he earns every pen n of it. However, he is not paid un til the end of the season. The day on which the show closes, every person with the aggregation gives him a "piece of money," as the circus folk say. From each employe of the show he receives a sum which may range between seventy-five cents and five dollars, the executives of course, be ing more liebral than the working men. Where there are five hundred attaches with a circus, the mail car rier can figure that he will receive at least five hundred dollars; never less: sometimes more. So, you see, besides the regular salary which is paid for his services as musical director, he re ceives for his side work enough monej to perceptibly swell his bank account. By a new French process aluminum can be so substantially nickel plated1 that the metal can be hammered and' bent without cracking.
