Free Postal Delivery Service to be Instituted in Manchester 
by December 1. 
e 
Postmaster Samuel L. Wheaton was 
in receipt of a letter yesterday from the 
First Asst. Postmaster General C. P. 
Grandfield, stating that a city delivery 
service will be established at Manchester 
on December 1, 1909. *‘ City delivery ’’ 
is the official name of what we common- 
ly term “‘free delivery.’’ 
The letter states that there will be 
three carriers and one_substitute-carrier. 
Thirteen boxes will be placed at various 
points about the route and thirteen steel 
posts will be erected for the boxes. 
This announcement ought to be re- 
ceived with a great deal of appreciation 
by Manchester people. There is prob- 
ably not a town in the state, nor in all 
New England, of Manchester’s popula- 
tion, that can boast of such first-class 
postoffice service as Manchester. 
The town has been divided into three 
divisions, which in brief may be called 
the West Manchester route, the Man- 
Senator Shaw Not a Candidate for 
Re-election. 
Senator James F. Shaw, who has rep- 
resented Manchester in the senate for the 
last three years, announces today for the 
first time through the Breeze, that he is 
not a candidate for re-election.

** Having been honored by the voters 
of this District with three terms in the 
Massachusetts Senate and with the: ap- 
proach of another election, I consider 
that it is my duty to state my position 
regarding seeking further honors in the 
coming Republican caucuses. 
“IT am deeply sensible of the great 
honor and confidence which I have re- 
ceived at the hands of the Republican 
party and the people of this district. To 
compensate for this I have given my best 
efforts to promote the interests of the 
District and the State at alltimes. To 
assist me I have had the loyal support of 
many members of the Massachusetts 
House and Senate to whom I am under 
deep obligation.

cided that I shall not this year be a can- 
chester Cove route, and the School street

Keith's. 
That baseball is the American game, 
that it is a game with which every one is 
familiar was never better demonstrated 
than one afternoon recently in New 
York, when Cecil Lean, who had long 
been the star“of the Kirke La Salle Com- 
pany, sat on the back of a davenport, in 
his shirt sleeves and his coat over his 
arm and sang a song called ‘* The Fan.’’ 
This happened in a New York Theatre 
and before the chorus was finished 
crowded houses were shouting like wild, 
Lean with the song caught the spirit of 
the ball game and every move he made 
was a picture. He woke up next morn- 
ing to find himself the most talked about 
comedian in New York. Mr. Lean 
will be the star attraction at Keith’s next 
week, coming with Florence Holbrook 
who has been associated with him as 
stellar features of ‘‘The Soul Kiss.’’ 
They have an act that will certainly be 
talked about as there has nothing clever- 
er been presented in vaudeville in recent 
years.
