THE RAILWAY MAIL SERVICE
The origin of tie System and Its Marvel
Gus Development.
EARLY STRUGGLES OF THE FOUNDER
Difficulties Encountered Mt the Outset and
successfully Overcome Growth and
Advantages OF the sys,em-ouali-
Hcatlons of Mail Clerks.

Did you ever drop a letter bearing a dis.
tant address into the slide of one of the
little, red, iron boxes marked ~. 5. Mail, '
and so conveniently placed at every 9th or
street corner2
Yes, you have, no doubt, many a time, aud
then forgotten all about IL or remembered
only to count the days or hours that must
elapse before an answer could be expected.
Or, perchance your thoughts may have
followed it a little way on its long journey,
for YOU knew that the mail collector would
take 1t to the postoitise aud you were quite
sure that it would go out on the next fast
mail.
Although bearing such an important rela-
ton TO our business and social requirements,
very limited is the general public knowledge
OF the workings of the most intricate and
wonderful system un Ter the control of
Uncle Sim-that of the railway mail
service. Comparatively few are tn o
people who know that the Worlds Fair
city was the starting point of the postal car.
Such, however, is the fact.

may lose his place. When OsgOod left Cor
nell it was feared that be could never be re-
placed, and the general opinion was that
Cornell wonld be very weak back of the line.
This was augmented by the death of Wither-
bee, the bucking halt-back. But such is not
the case. There are ut least SIX men IN
training who would make available half-back
material, ana u may be confidently asserted
That Cornell this season will be very strong
back of the line. Robbins and Dyer-the
former n varsity crew man, the latter n
freshman-dre the most promising caudl-
dates for half-backs.
Public Interest In the Game.
Nassau, Dartmouth and others of the
eastern colleges have strong teams, aud the
prospects are that there will be such inter-
est in the game in the east this season AS
was never witnessed. Not alone are the col
lege men Interested in the sport, but the
public is learning II, and there is u marked
increase in attendance at the MINOR games
TINS season. Athletic club elevens are spring
ing up, too, and there is now IA possibility of
the game growing to the extent of it's sup
plementing base ball as an out door recrea-
ton FOR the public. with leagues formed of
teams representing cities and playing "A
regular schedule OF stmes for a pennant, as
do the base ball teams. Modern usage has
robbed the sport of much of it's terrors. 1t
is no longer necessary to kill q man or
two to win, but, on the other
hand, more and more of science Is
shown in the play each succeeding year. AL
though tho big captains still cling to the ira
dition of "beet' for the rush line, there is n
growing demand for speed, and u center
rush who can do 100 yards in eleven seconds
is now accounted a better man than the one
who can lift a ton. Between the two re-
q%uisites, however, foot ball has been the
means of developing men who are giants in
size and yet fleet of foot in a degree that is
surprising to one who has been accustomed
to associating great size with slow move
ments.
OF Omaha's interest in the game some
thing has already been said by The BEE, and
more will be given from time to time. There
Is n very healthy sentiment IN its favor here.
and the prospect of the local team winning
the High school championship of the state is
enough to warrant the favor of the lover of
sport for sports sake.

TAKEN IN.
Charitable aud Gallant Conrressman's
Discovery.

A good story is told by the WASHING
ton Post of n certain congressman who
came TO that city the first time officially
at the opening of the present session.
One night during the recent rainy sea-
son the representative was walking
along the venue in the vicinity of Sixth
street at a very late hour. 1t was raining
hard, the cable cars had stopped for the
night, and there were few people on the
streets. The congressman was hurrying
TO his hotel, tightly grasping an UNI
brella. which was pulled down over his
shoulders, AS he neared Sixth street
he noticed an elderly little woman stand
ing on the corner, heavily bundled up
and holding Il wornout parasol over her
head. AS he approached the woman she
said:
Mister, will YOU please tell me how
to get to Georgetown? I'm "a stranger in
the city and want to go to my sons
house"
Georgetown" exclaimed the con-
gressman; why my good woman, You
are W or three miles from there and
the cars have stopped running. You had

poor woman Then I'll have 10 walk.

The lawmakers heart was touched.
He probably thought of one of his own
tamil in a similar predicament. Diving
into his trousers pocket, he said:
Let me assist you, madam. Here is
-. Now you walk over to the depot an
hire a cab to take you to your SON
house"
He pressed the money into the woman's
wet hand and hurried on his way, while
she murmured, God bless you, kind
sir"
Three nights a~fterward, about the
same hour, the same congressman was
again walking along the avenue. 1t was
"a clear, cool night, and being engrossed
in Il deep study, he did not know any
body was near him until the figure of a
woman stood in his path, and he heard
her say:
Please, sir, a you tell me the way
to GeorgetO-?'
Glancing at the features of the speaker,
the congressman at once recognized the
woman he had befriended u few nights
before, and as he cast a frowning glance
at her, he said:
Good Lord, woman, haven't you
found your son yet? Well, you just wait
for some other idiot to come along. I've
