Leaving the muzzle with a velocity of about 1.4T4 feet in second. pro- jectile has been observed to increase it's speed to about 1889 feet per sec ond within the first six feet.

THE FIRST POST OFFICE.
a Private Penny Post ESst0 bIIshed In
France In the Reign Of
Louis XIV.

The fact that there is a regular mail
route through Alaska. and that even re-
mote towns in Africa are not without
postaI facilities. is in these progressive
times accepted. quite as Il matter OF
course. Yet this wonderful system.
which has reached out until il in.
cludes every country on the face OF
the earth. had its beginning in the mind
OF an ingenious Frenchman who lived
less than $50 years ago . .,.
p In 1853. early in the reign Of Louis
XIV. NJ. de Eelayer established pri-
vate penny post. says a writer IN IIar.
Per's Round Table. Boxes were set up
at the street corners for the reception
OF letters. Offices were opened ia vari.
GUS quarters OF Paris: coIlrriIuns were
made once day from the street boxes.
followed many hours later by single
delivery. and thus the first post office
in the world was established.
NJ. de Nelayer was so greatly en-
couraged By the success OF his enter.
prise that in order 10 develop ii still
further he printed certain forms OF
biIleIs or notes which were intended
TO cover all the ordinary requirements
OF business in great towns. These
forms contained blanks which were
intended 10 be filled up by the
pen with such special matters as might
be necessary TO camplete the writer's
object. The idea at once became pop.
ular and the printed forms accom-.
panied the expansion OF the postal
service throughout the larger cities Of
France. and il was many years before
they fell into disuse.

STREET CAR MEN
Arrived in Wichita Last Night
From the East.
WANT A NEW FRANCHISE
They Do Not Buy Roads for
Speculation.

W. B. Mckinley Of Champagne, Illinois
Edward Woodman and Geo. F. Duncan
Of Portland. Maine, the gentlemen con-
nected with the reported new street car
deal, arrived in Wichita last night to
look over the lines and the city gener-
ally.
Mr.. Woodman. speaking for the party,
said, when questioned by a reporter for
the Eagle:
We came here Of course with the in
tention of taking hold of the Wichita
street railway matter, but we shall want
new franchise both for the street rail-
way and Lighting. What we propose to
do is 70 buy the old company's inter
ests and get a new contract with the
city. We wanted to see the city, the
street railway and also TO see what the
council is willing to do"
The men were not inclined to talk
much about the matter. They said they
had not looked around. had just came
into the city and couldn't tell what they
would do in the way of repairs until
they looked over the situation.
Mr.. Woodman and Mr. Duncan will
probably return TO Portland tomorrow
Mr.. Mckinley will remain for the coun-
ell meeting Monday night. They We're
in consultation with Mr.. Coler Sim at
the Carey last night. Mr.. Sim, who rep
resents the Batchelder syndicate, has
been working faithfully to get matters
adjusted between the city and the old
1s-s.-
that would allow a repair of the street
car service in this city. He and Mr..
Mckinley are old friends. having grown
up as boys together in Champaign, Hi
nois, where Mr. Mckinley manages a
street railway for the gentlemen who are
now here. The company also owns and
operates systems in Urbana, Joliet and
Quincy, and the excellent service and
success of these systems, of which Mr..
Sim was acquainted, induced him to con-
slider with favor the proposition TO dis
pose of the system here to the same
men.
1t is understood that if the conditions
are all satisfactory and the men here
now get the Wichita road they will put
it into repair Immediately, but that ii
would be impossible to get new rails
within year if they were ordered now.
Mr. Woodman expressed desire TO be
able to close a deal for the property
here. He says that any citizen Of Wich-
tia can find out the kind Of street rail-
ways they run by dropping line of in
quiry to any city official in Champaign,
Urbana. Quincy or Joliet Illinois. Eve
do not buy street railroads to speculate
on" he said. I'VE buy them 10 oper-
ate"
