Although there wro more than 300 empty mall boxos in the Dend postotflco immediately aftor tho chango to tho carrier delivery system this spring, there aro now CO houso holder on tho waiting list, Postmas ter W.)IL Hudson raports, whllo np-i plications for carrier service aro 10 times ns great ns thoso for box privi leges. All combination boxes hnvo boon taken and of tho 210 key boxes which were unrented nftor tho chango In tho distribution system, only 100 nro now vncant. Tho chief reason for this, Mr. Hudson says, Is that it han been found Imposslblo to dnto, in splto of repeated trials, to obtain keys to fit tho locks. "Tlioro can be no question that Hand's population is greatly in excess of thnt.reported nt tho tlino tho cen sus was taken, " tho postmaster said, "nnd, nut onjy thnt, but thovnumbcr or. poopio is sieauiiy growing. Too quick tenting of tho boxes vacated In tho spring Is, of courso, duo in part to tho fact that many who lived be yond tho carrier limits mado prompt application, but tho increasing num ber of residents in tho outlying parts of tho city, who aro asking to bo put on a carrier routo, cannot be explained In tho snmo way. City KcttliiiK Ilnpidly. "Ilcnd is settling up very rapidly. I hnvo observed this personally In re cant trips over the mall routes.

Mr. Hudson has sent a shipment of misfit keys back to tho factory for tho third tlmo nnd hopes that ho will shortly bo ablo to furnish boxes to tho waiting applicants. Hy tho ond of tho year, ho believes, all boxes will bo. takcu nnd there will bo an other waiting list. BEND MAN IS FINED FOR KILLING DEER ROSEnUHG, Aug. 31.
