The scheme for dispatching mail through co-operative air and rail service will be at Cheyenne as follows: A ship arriving from the east will carry pouches of mail from points fur- ther rast than North Platte, and one pouch taken on at North Platte. Here this mail will be delivered to Union Pacific train No. 9, due here at 10:40 P. m., and letter mail for Sa.} Lake on’ train No. 9 will be taken off here for transport by air the following morn- at Omaha and Notth Platte from 1 to 24 hours.
