Mr. Bangs formerly held tho position Of United States
subTrcasuror there, but his lame was chiefly acquired
and earned through his connection with the fast mail
service, which he probably did more to improve than
any other person. Hc born ut Milan, Ohio,
In 1925, and when only nine years OF ago
entered tho Office OF tho Akron Beacon. where
no learned the trade OF printer. Subsequently
ho worked as journeyman printer on the Cleveland
Herald, the Milwaukee Sentinel the Jancsyio Gazette
aud the Rock County Democrat In 1850 ho went
Chicago, where he worked u by day and as
q substitute compositor at night A year later be
went TO Aurora, H.. where no was connected
for eighteen months with tho Aurora Beacon
Alter spending some limo at farming no pur.
chased number OF local papers, consolidated
them In tho Beacon, ana largely increased
its circulation and influence. In 1861 he was
appointed Postmaster at Aurora BY President Lincoln
Early in President Grants administration he APP
pointed Assistant Superintendent Of the Railway Mail
Service, with his headquarters at Chicago. Soon
after he called 10 Washington to MI tho olce Of
General superintendent OF the Railway Mail Service,
vs. the successor OF George b. Armstrong, who suddenly
died. He found the service in greatly demOalizcd
don, and began the work OF reform at and With
the cncr.y which characterized him. He got rid Of
incompetent suooTuinatcs Oy system OF cxamina-
iions among the route agents and postal clerks, and
abored zeaously 10 raise tho service TO high degree
OF efficiency. Alter having for years urged
upon the Post Office Department tho estab-
lshmcnt OF fast mali train system between the East
and the West he finally successful in September
1875. In 1875 he Was appointed Assistant United
Eialcs Treasurer Mt Chicago, the appointment roceiv
Ing tho mous Endorsement Of the Senate. He
signed this pace aicr ,ding u about year. has
since been connected with the American Express Conn
pany. Mr.. Bangs, IRON the eminent services he rem
dcred, was looked upon the ather OF the railway
mail service. All those who III contact with
MIN wero struck with his great business capacity,
energy and integrity, and he welded influence
among public men entirely out OF proportion with
