Fast Mail to Seattle,

. The widespread public interest in the
contest for the fast mail contract be-
tween Chicago and Omaha has caused
one to temporarily overlook the similar
achievement of the Great Northern rail-
way in establishing quick mail commu-
nication from New York via Chicago
and st. Paul to Seattle, and thence to
the orient. The fast Pacific mail service
by way of st. Paul to the Puget sound
country is now quite as remarkable as
that via Omaha TO San Francisco. On
Jan. the Great Northern placed in
service fast through mail and passen-
ger train from Chicago to Seat on
which the mail pouches never once leave
the car after the transfer at st. Paul.
From New York to Seattle the time
by this northern route is just four days.
East of ST. Paul the mails are carried on
several roads. but west of that city-on
a run exceeding the eastern portion oy
500 miles-the mail goes through with
out change across five great states on
the tracks Of the Great Northern. Forty
five minutes are consumed in transfer
ring the mails in Chicago and 30 minutes
in st. Paul After that the Northern
Oriental flyer does the rest without a
pause until the Asiatic mails go on
board the steamers of the Japan Mail
Steamship company. Both the import
aiSC VI SCdtlle oIlSilldi
point and the speed of the Great North
ern transcontinental mail service make
the achievement noteworthy feature
of American railway progress.
The Puget sound cities have already
become formidable rivals of San Fran
cisco as regards the freight and passen-
ger traffic for Japan, China and Asiatic
PORTS. The steamer route from Seattle
to the orient seems to be more free from
storms than that from San Francisco,
and as large proportion of the oriental
the freight traffic has naturally taken
this course. The fact that the full ca
pacity of the Japan Mail Steamship
company's boats is engaged as far
ahead as next August is in itself stril-
ing proof of the growing Importance of
the oriental trade that has it's outlet at
Seattle.
For these and other reasons the fast
mail to the Pacific coast, for which the
Great Northern holds the government
contract, is fully as important as that
which daily rushes across the plains and
mountains to San Francisco. The Great
Northern has been as much alive to the
keen rivalry for speed and l1onors as
have the Northwestern, Rock Island
and Burlington, and it is but fair that
the achievements of it's fast daily trans
continental mail should be included in
the new chapter of railway advance
ment now being written by the Western
ailroads.-Chicago Tribune, Jan. Ia,
1899

EXTRA SESSION CERTAIN
A. Growing Belief Among Mem
'bers of Congress.
HANNA is IN FAVOR OF 1T
Republicans Wish to Get Vexatious CUES
tions Settled Before the Next
Campaign Opens Nc
kinley Desires 1t.

Washington, Jan. 29.-There is a
growing conviction among men in Off
cial life here that an extra session of
the Fifty-sixth congress next spring is
almost inevitable. Some close friends
of the president have expressed the
opinion lately that on many accounts
an extra session would be desirable. 1t
would insure the settling of the ques-
ton of expansion in advance of the
opening Of the presidential campaign
next year, which, in the judgment of a
good many politicians, would be the
best thing that could happen.
Senator Hanna is known to have been
in favor of an extra session before the
assembling of congress in December.
Mr.. Hanna took the ground that it
would be good politics to have as many
of the problems growing out of the war
disposed Of and out of the way as pos
sible before the next campaign. 1t is
said that he still retains this opinion.
president Mckinley will be disap
pointed if the peace treaty Is not ratified
at this session." said leading republi-
can at the white house to-day. He
thinks that it will place US in a very
bad light abroad if the treaty is not
ratified before congress adjourns. You
have observed, no doubt, that Senor
Sagasta says that the cortes will not
be convened to act on the treaty until
the senate at Washington has taken ac-
ton. We cannot blame him for that.
1t is proper, under the circumstances,
for Spain to wait on us. 1 think that
we will ratify the treaty before March
4, but it may have to be at the expense
of the Nicaragua canal bill and other
important measures. The president will
call an extra session, in my Judgment,
even if the peace treaty is ratified at
this session, of the Nicaragua canal bill
and the measure for the reorganization
and enlargement of the army are not
passed"

PRETTY BACKGROUND
a Theatrical Poster Made to
Serve a Purpose.
UNIQUE PHOTOGRAPH
The Picture Waiting for Jones" Makes
a Delightful Perspective for the
Exercise Of Original Ideas
in Photography.

Everybody viii remember having seen
posted on the dead walls of the city
three-sheet posters of the What Hap
pened to Jones" company, whereupon
were depicted three beautiful young la
dies hanging over the bannisters of a
staircase in an expeetant attitude. The
| poster was labelled waiting for JONES'
That picture did not appear in reality
in the performance, but it served its
purpose of attraction just the same.
The picture is quite novel one and in
the way of theatrical posters it is of
more than usual beauty. Owing to the
fact that What Happened to Jones"
was the last attraction to appear in
Anaconda, the posters are still on the
dead walls.
yesterday party of young fellows,
among whom was a photographer, CON
celVed the idea that this picture of the
three anxiously waiting maidens would
make a first-class background for a
trick" photograph. The suggestion
was made that the photographer get
out his camera, which was Done, and
the party proceeded to the bill board
Some Of the young fellows of the party
placed themselves near the wall in such
position as to make it appear that
they We're carrying on the most ami
mated Irritation with the three girls
who We're waiting for Jones' In this
position they appeared to be looking up
at the pretty women as eagerly as the
women We're looking down upon them.
When they had attained the proper
pose, the man with the camera "let
'er Co. and the deed was DONE The
result of the developing process will ae
awaited with considerable interest
The incident serves to once more call
attentionsto the work that might have
been done by the Camera club and its
members, had that body maintained its
organization. There are hundreds and
thousands of just such odd, novel and
unique subjects for photography as The
one mentioned above, and there would
be no end to the fun and entertainments
that could be derived from such pic
lures, if the club members had stayed
together and put forward their best eff
forts during the summer.
There is talk of reorganization of
the camera club as soon as spring ar
rives, and If the members profit by their
past experience, there is little doubt
that the organization can be made a
profitable and entertaining one. The
pleasant mention which the clubs ex-
hibit received at the Omaha exposition
should be stimulus enough for another
effort in the direction of the reorganiza-
tion of the club.
