The gigantic immensely and extent
Of the mail service Of the United
States, Is at the best, butfaintly under
stood even by the people Of this coun-
try. In the report of Postmaster
General Villas, we find the following:
in the matter of the expenditures,
performances and results, the postal
machinery of the United States ex-
ceeds, in some points far exceeds,
that of any other nation on the globe.
The entire length of all the railways
employed by the United States mail
service nearly equals the combined
extent Of those Of all other countries
of the world, while our other post
routes more than equal the total OF
any single people, besides, and the
mileage of our mail transportation
exceeds by more than 125,000,0OO
miles tue service rendered to any
other government. The po~stofices
of no other nation is one-third our
number. It is estimated that 10000
900 more letters were mailed in the
United States last year than in Great
Britain, and nearly that number more
than were mailed in Germany, France,
and Austria combined The proper
ton to each inhabitant is estimated in
the United States at &c, Great Britain
IS, and Germany -.

Glorious News.

The arrival of two large freight teams this morning in front of Sum- merfeld Bros store, caused our re- porter to pause while going the rounds of the city for news. After waiting q few minutes he observed several large packing cases being unloaded. This excited his curiosity, and he repaired to the interior of the store where he found them being unpacked, and no- ticed that they were filled with boys and mems clothing, which are espec- ially suited for the holidays.
 We also observed several cases which contained full line of holiday presents such as silk handkerchiefs, plain handkerchiefs, embroidered handkerchiefs, initial handkerchiefs, and in fact almost everything that is suitable for holiday presents. Mir. Summerfeld stated to us that he had employed force of six extra clerks, so that everybody could be waited upon at once and not be kept waiting. We would advise all parties desiring holiday goods, or who would like to make their lady or gentleman friend a suitable present, to visit the store of Summerfsld Bros, and they will find what they want. 1921 If

"A. H. So- den, of Boston, A. G. Spaulding of Chicago, John c. Day, of New York, and A. J. Reach of Philadelphia, as 8 special committee of the National baseball league, to-day sat in this city to determine what two clubs to add to the league in place of the dis banded clubs of Buffalo and Provi- deucs, or to determine whether only six clubs, as at present, shall constl- tute the membership of the league. Ike committee resolved to add Wash ingten to the roll, and the choice of the eighth club from Indianapolis, Ksnsas City or Milwaukee; should be left to tke clubs of the league in Chi eago, Detroit and St. Louis. This conclusion was based upon the as sumption that the western clubs in the league are best fitted to judge which of three cities would be the nest wise accession to the league. The committee was in favor of Kansas City. If not done before, the com nittee, on March A, at Chicago, will determine and fix the choice. The following, offered by A. c, Spaulding, was adopted without dissent:
 Resolved: That this committee rec, ommend to the league to so remodel the constitution as to require each cub to deposit with the president of the league $5,OOO in yearly install ments of 1000, payable during the month of March in each year. Such fund is to constitute a guarantee fund for the fulfillment of the constitution al requirements of the league, and that they shall deposit bonds ot $5UOO each.
 This fund will in time, by interest, build up large sum to be used for the benefit of men of the league dis abled in the field. The result of the western election will not be known before the expiration of a fort night.

Pnyness Barrel Again.

TOLEDO, Jan. 22.-There is great indignation among northwestern Ohio Democrats over open letter No. ?, srom s. K. Donavin, of Delaware, re beating his charge that Senator Payne secured his election by fraud and bri- bery, naming the amounts paid the various state senators and representa- tives fer their votes, among which from this section were Senators White and McLymAn and Representatives Beatty and Brady, whom Donavin alleges were paid from $l,50O to $5,0O0 each. The evening papers are full of the subject, and the affair is all the talk of political circles. An even ing paper, democratic, publishes inter- views with the four members named, in which they denounce the whole charges as an outrageous lie, and that they will demand the fullest investiga- ton. Another member hss already commenced suit against the COmmer- clal Gazette for libel for publishing Donavin's letter.
 Dennin Coghlin, Jacksonian dem ocrat, millionaire and banker of Payne has so much faith in the falseness of charges that he publishes the follow ing:
 q authorize you ts say that l will bet from $1O,0oO to $50,000 that neither McLyman, White, Brady or Beatty ever received dollar for vot- ing for any man, republican or demo- crat. and I will give any man, republi- can or democrat, sI, GOO if he will get this first $l0,000 offer taken, and l will give slO,OOO to get the $5O,OOO offer taken. This is no bluff. 1 will pat up the money at any time.

 Surface.

I have heretofore notified you tha I own three-ffths of the surface ground of the Way Up mine. I now notify you that l claim no right to said ground against anyone who has been in possession of lot or lots thereon for five years, as think the five years statute of limitation com menced to run on September P, 1880, when the patent to the townsite is sued. But, in any event, I would not disturb anyone who has improvements on a lot for several years; unless, in the case of one who has indentifed himself with those who fraudlently obtained the townsite title from Alder Randall, Mayor, or who now buys or has lately bought of them, or given them aid or assistance.
 But, as to all of the lots on said Way Up mine now vacant or unoccu- pied, or that have lately been settled on or bought from the townsite claim ants, or claimants under the Way Up mine, will assert my rights, but will sell at a reasonable price, reserving my right to refuse to sell to anyone who, by purchasing lots as aforesaid from other claimants and paying for more than two-ffths thereof, or who has indentifed himself with the frauds.
