SPEEDED up "POSTAL SERVICE et i Firet’ Exclusivé Transportation of the Malls, In 1875, Was Watched The first exclusive mail train was placed In service Sept. 18, 1875, - Leay- ing New York, it arrived on schedule time in . Chicago - the following- day, after a journey of twenty-six hours. Great interest was:taken at that time In"this- all-postal train, which carried the western mail from New York to Chicago at a greater speed than any passenger train-could- command, and, furthermore delivered that mail at Chi- cago’ distributed ‘and arranged for im- mediate dispatch to other lines, or for delivery by carrier in Chicago. - With- the beginning of the yegr 1899 the mail betweén New York and San “Finclsco: was" also carrled on fast trains, consuming less time than the fastest passenger train.

Money's an odd sort of commodity and some persons know very little -of actual- cash from intimate acquaint- ance. Harry Veness tells o! an old sour- dough of'the Klondike, who had a valuable claim after several years of dangers ‘and Hardships in the North. He - came :to; Seattle and. operators who realized the value of his holdings had tried to buy him out for $100,000, but it was no use, the prospector held on. Then eame the wise man who made the deal, and for one-tenth of that sum. The stage-managed propo- sition was worked like this: The. operators cornered their man on the main street and induced him to accompany them to a dark little office off Marion street. There they talked Alaska and mining until they thought they had their man in the proper frame of mind. -They opened up the subject of a deal-and he:ad- mitted he had been offered $100,000. “And you'll never -sell for that?" one sald, and when the miner sald “No”. the. would-be. purchaser. went to a table near by that was'covered with a cloth and snatched - the covering away. There, stacked In neat but careless ‘appearing piles; ~was $10,000 in bright, new shiny $20 gold pleces. “There’s: what we'll.:give .you,” shouted one of the operators as he saw the miner's eyesgleam. “You Just -sign the deed. and tn!n the money.” And the mlner. unused to money, earried away by the sight of real coin, signed.—Portland Oregonian. CONTINUE INBREEDING TESTS Department of Agricuiture Has Now ‘Taken Up Investigations With Poultry and Swine. After 15 years of inbreeding and cross-breeding experiments with guinea pigs, in which more than 34,000 animals were used, the United States Depart- ment of Agriculture is continuing the Investigations with poultry and swine, making use of many facts developed in the tests with the smaller animals. Sixpens of White Leghorns have been set aside for the purpose, and it is planned to breed continuously within each pen, using one male bird each year. A similar test will be carried on with- five pairs of Poland Chinas and four -pairs of Tamworth hogs. This experiment will make possible a later comparison of crossing within a breed and between two breeds with inbreeding. ! " Kings Who Never. Grow Old. !
