INDIAN MUSEUM IN OMAHA
Fair Prospect of Such an Enterprise
Being Carried Out in the
Near Future.

The project to establish an Indian museum
in the Omaha Public Library is in a fair way
OF being carried out. Patrick Ryan has
agreed to allow the library to exhibit his
Indian collection II proper cases are pro-
vided for it, he to reserve the right to take
II away in the event that he receives a bet
ter offer of purchase from some other party.
Meantime he is open to some kind OF prop
osition to have it remain permanently in
Omaha.
President Reed, who is at the head Of the
museum committee. has purchased several
cases from the government exhibit build
ing of the Greater America Exposition.
which will be used for the display OF these
Indian articles. These cases are finished
in ebony and have glass doors and covers.
TheT will be placed in the southeast room
Of the library on the third floor.
Arrangements are being made to have the
Indian photographs, presented by the Ma
tional museum to the Transmississippi ex-
position board and by 1t to the public
library, mounted and exhibited as part of
the Indian collection. This matter will be
pushed so that this section of the museum
will be open to the public in few weeks

Who is Wanted by Omaha

Detective Drummy went over to Council
Bluffs yesterday and returned with Tom
Jones, charged with forgery. About two
weeks ago Jones applied to the J. Haglage
Installment company, 621 South Sixteenth
street, for employment and he was given two
albums to take to South Omaha and sell.
He was apparently successful in this enter
prise and returned to the company in the
evening with two contracts signed by parties
who had agreed to take the goods on the in
stallment plan. The next day he started out
again. this time taking about $50 worth of
rugs to be disposed of in the same way. 1t
was learned later that he also stopped at the
Home Furnishing company, lis North Six
teenth street, on the same morning and Sc
cured large lot of rugs there to sell for
them. Since then no one heard from him
until yesterday, when he was located in the
Bluffs. He was charged with forgery by
having signed some ones name to the al
bum contracts He was returned to this side

DOMESTIC PARCELS POST
Suggestion by an illinois Man for q
&. D. ID. Delivery on Small
Packages.

An interesting suggestion made in regard
to the chief features toward the establish
ment Of domestic parcels post system is Of
fered by II. II. Charles Of Quincy, ILL.,, who
directs a C. o. d. delivery of parcels.
The great popularity achieved by the for
eign parcels post with Germany in only a
few weeks has convinced the postoffce au
thorities at Washington of the urgent need
of a domestic parcels post permitting the
mailing of parcels and small packages at a
nominal cost to points in the United States.
Great opposition exists to the domestic par
GELS post on the part Of those corporations
now engaged in the express business, but
the public utterances Of President Mckinley
and Postmaster General Smith would seem
to indicate that they consider the system
worthy OF adoption at no very distant time.
Mr.. Charles, who has originated the c. o.
d. idea, and who has presented it to the
poetoffice authorities, has been studying the
parcels post system for some time and was
busy experimenting long before arrange
ments were made with Germany. The re-
suits of his tests prove that the C. o. d.
feature of the parcels post would be of al
most inestimable assistance to commercial
concerns which do large business through
the postoffice.
Mr.. Charles plan consists In sending par
cells C. o. D. by mail, preparing the postage.
A customer writing for an article would re-
ceive a letter stating that the article had
been mailed and might be procured from the
postmaster by paying the market price. To
the postmaster the article was sent with a
letter instructing him to deliver the package
on payment Of such -andsuch an amount.
After Geducting small fee for his trouble
the postmaster was directed to remit the
balance by postal money order, postage
stamps or registered package. Hundreds of
packages were sent by mail in this manner.
their cost varying from 75 cents to
$3.50 Postmasters!, as a rule, charged only
5 or 10 cents for each transaction. Bus
mess men who express goods to all parts of
the country and pay additional charges for
the transfer of packages from one express
company to another would realize the money
saved by the C. o. d. mail system and ap-
preciate it's convenience.
