GOVERNMENT WANTS no KNOW
Malls will be Weighed for s5 Days.
Commencing October 3,

Immediately after midnight on Oct.
3. the local postoiiice will begin weigh
ing the mails. and this viii be kept up
for thirty-tive successive days, ending
Nov 8, al midnight.
Postmaster A. w. Lee is in receipt
of a circular from the postmaster gen
eral at Washington. ID. c., instructino
him to commence weighing the mails.
This matter of weighing the mails is
done because the government wishes
20 know the weight of mail matter or
iginating in the United States every
twenty hours. together with the
weight of the equipment necessary TO
transport the same. The postmasters
will be provided with two blanks. upon
one of which they will keep their daily
record of weights. and upon the other
they will copy the information from
the first blank at the close of the
weighing. and they will then forward
this copy in the envelope which is fur
nished with the blanks. The original
blank will be kept in the office of the
postmaster. This is a work OF great
magnitude and it is of the utmost inn
portance that it should be correctly
done.

KEARsARGE MAKES TRIAL TRIP.
Its First Unofficial Voyage Shows That
It's CaOablc of Great Speed

Newport News. Va. Sept. 6.-The
first-class battleship Keaysarge, which
was constructed at the works of the
Newport News Shipbuilding and Dry
Dock company, went out on its first
trial trip at 6 o'clock this morning
1t made 1913 knots under forced draft.
The ship was in charge of the Off
cials of the yard. 1t was not an Off
cial test.
There We're, however, many naval
officers on board. among them being
Captain Folger, who will command the
Kearsage; Captain Chester, command
er of the Kentucky. now nearing com
pletion; and Naval Constructor Wood
ward. who superintendent the con-
struction of the new warships.
The crew numbered 200 men.
The Kearsarge,wit colors flying and
brooms nailed TO the masts, signifying
that it will sweep the seas, steamed
slowly out of the James River amidst a
din of screaming whistles and other
noisy snlutes. After reaching Hamp-
ton Roads its speed was increased and
the vessel steered toward the Virginia
Capes.
The test occurred from 10 to X
o'clock. The Kearsarge has not been
in the dry dock in the last year and its
bottom is foul. For this reason il was
not expected it would develop its'con-
tract speed ofssiNteen knots. Its bull
ders are now confident the ship will
make eighteen knots. on its official
trial, which will occur in short time,
rs it is now receiving. it's tinishinu
touches. The steering gear WORKED
smoothly and the machinery was il
excellent condition.
