THE POSTAL TROLLEY CAR.
A Novelty In Mail Delivery Now Utilized In
the City of Brooklyn.

A Novelty I'm Mail Delivery Now Utilized In
the City of Brooklyn.
The latest novelty in mail delivery is
the postal trolley car now in use in
Brooklyn and it's extensive suburbs
The car, which is painted white, with
gold lettering and red trimming, is a
combination postal and smoking car.
The interior Is divided into two COM
partments, each 10 feet long. One
compartment is open to passengers and
is particularly designed for that portion
of the public addicted to the tobacco
habit. The other compartment resembles
the interior of the ordinary railroad
postal car on a small scale
On one side of the car are horizontal
bars from which the mail pouches are
strung, and on the other are wide ia
BILE and a case of Oh pigeonholes, into
which the mail for outlying sections of
Brooklyn is distributed. The car is
manned by one postal clerk, who, as
soon as the car leaves the general post
office, begins distributing the mail into
the pigeonholes representing the differ
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1894-10-24

ent stations along the route. As each
station Is reached 1t receives its mail
just as each town along the line of a
railroad gets its consignment from the
clerks in an ordinary postal Iaail car.
AS Brooklyn has a circumference of
about 80 miles and a population of
nearly 900, 900, and as much time is
saved citizens OF the outlying districts
by having the distribution of mail done
in the cars instead of at the general
pOstoffice, it is believed the postal troll
ley car will be such a success that it
will be initiated in other large cities of
the country. On the return trip the car
collects mail matter from the different
branch stations and leaves il at the gen
eral postoffice. Two of the cars are now
III use. They are run, lighted and even
heated by electricity and were built at a
cost of 81, 800 each.
St. Louis was the first city TO utilize
the postal trolley car, and the credit for
the idea seems to belong TO Major John
b. Harlow, postmaster of St. Louis.
Last year he rugged up a small freight
car, placed it on the st. Louis and Sub
urban Electric railroad, and the resi-
dents of the suburbs hailed him as a
public benefactor.

The Third Attempt to Cause Destruc
ton.

\ dastardly attempt was made between
IL and l. o'clock last night to blow up the
private residence of DIR. j. f. Baker. enc of
the most prominent physicians of Lancas-
ter. Pa. A dynamite bomb was the weapon
used. portion OF the porch surrounding
the residence was torn away and
the iron fence surrounding it was
bent and twisted. The heavy plate
glass windows were shattered, while within
the parlor pictures were destroyed and
other damage wrought
The family were asleep. and the sleepers
were almost literally shaken out of their
beds by the force of the explosion. The
house is located on North Lime street, in
one of the quietest residence sections of
the city. The residence of Attorney General
Hensel is located less than half a block
away and the police station is not far dis
tant. The whole neighborhood was terribly
alarmed by the explosion and the street was
soon thronged with excited citizens
Luther ). Hassler, clerk in the internal
revenue office, who was on his way home
says he saw a man pass under the gas
light opposite DIR. Bakers residence and a
moment later noticed that the light had
been extinguished. He saw the man stop
at the porch and strike match, as IL to
light cigar. He thought nothing of the
occurrence and watched the man as he
disappeared down an alley adjoining Dr.
Bakers residence.
AS Mr.. Hassier approached the house he
was startled by flash, followed instantly
by terrific defamation. Something struck
him in the leg, from which it tore a portion
of the skin. This was undoubtedly small
piece of the exploded bomb.
Another fragment was hurled against the
residence of DIR. Frank Muhlemberg, living
over block away. This was found to be
small piece of iron gas pipe, with a double
screw attached
Other houses in the neighborhood were
rudely shaken and the inmates hurried into
the street thinking there had been an earth
quake 1t is evident that the miscreant
who attempted this deed was either unfa-
mlliar with explosives. or that he did Tot
take time to properly place the bomb He
must have thrown IL on the porch after
lighting the fuse. Had il been placed up-
derneath the porch it would have demol-
ished the building
This is the third dynamite outrage at
tempted in Lancaster within the past
month. but last nights incident is by far
the most serious in its results. No possible
motive for the deed can be advanced ard
the police attribute it to a mere flemish
desire TO injure the sleeping occupants of
the house.
