of the postal car attached to train No. 40 on the
Buffalo and Chicago Railroad. Leaving Chicago
on the 9th, the train collided with freight train
near Sedan, Indiana, the shock upsetting the
stoves and burned up the car and contends
The registered mail lost must have been very
valuable, as this train usually brings the bank
ers' remittancss of bonds and other collaterals,
besides many costly articles sent registered, and
for which no compensation can be obtained.
More than 10000 letters with valuable con-

Where the Sun Jumps q Day.

Chatham Island lying off tho cost OF
New Zealand, in the South Pacific Ocean,
is peculiarly situated, as ii is one of the
habited points of the globe where the
day of the week changes. 1t is just in
the line of demarkation between dates.
There high II on Sunday or noon ceases,
and instantly Monday meridian begins.
Sunday comes into a mans house on the
east side and becomes Monday by the
time it passes out the western door. A
man sits down to his MONDAY dinner on
Sunday, and it is Monday before he fin,
ishes it.
That Saturday is Sunday and Sunday
is Monday, and Monday suddenly be-
comes transferred into Tuesday. 1t is a
good place for people who have lost
much time, for by taking an early start
they can always get a day ahead on
