NEW STAMPING MACHINE.
Chicago FostaI Auth ord ties Are Test- (. AAH . New Cancellation
 -- PlRnL

Anew stamp-canceling mac chine is be- ing tried at the Chicago post office pre- Nous to its adoption or rejection by the United States postal department. Its inventor claims that it is capable of caneeling 125,o0o letters every hour. The machines which are now used in the office have a capacity of from 40, 900 to 50,000 letters an hour. They all work on the principle of either rub Der CT leather band, with pin points to draw the letters under the canceling die T'- -r=
 ThiS new machine uses the principle of suction to feed in the letters. A large wheel at regular intervals per forated with holes, under. each one of which there is an air pump, revolves rapidly A bundle of letters is laid on this wheel, and each hole as it comes around sucks letter tight to the wheel, where it is carried under the stamper. About 500, 900 letters are can celsd in the Chicago post office daily, and if this machine is . success 1t will be able to take the place Of a large num- her of the present machines.

1kt of Comedy Between Trains at a'Nsv< York Elevated Rall-

A messehger boy, small, trim, reticen and deliberate in his movements. walked up the steps of Sixth avenue elevated railroad station, reports the New York Sun, went quietly along the passsgSway between the ticket sellers window and the ticket choppers box, and there dropped his ticket. The tick ct chopper being at that moment stand ing stretching his legs, the messen- ger kept on around the ticket box and dropped in the ticket choppers chair without 8 word or look for anybody.
 Il gueSs you were born tired, said the ticket chopper. No reply from the messenger. .s
 When the next passenger dropped & ticket in the box the messenger bUy reached forward and grasped the han, de of the lever and raised it up and let the ticket fall down from the hop per into the box below, throwing the lever up through it's full sweep slowly but to the limit with mapner that was at once languid and precise
 "There--thatnl do," said the ticket chopper T'll attend to that part of it."
 Still paying no attention to him, the messenger got up and walked away. He had chopped one ticket, that's all he wanted to chop; and now he strolled down the platform as calm, as grave faced, as reticent as ever, as cool, even in this weather. as the proverhial cu- rumher

 Congratulate you" he said Its a boy" Then the doctor went back to his patient.
 Hamlin, left alone. promptly began to map out the future career of Ms heir. He was to be model of virtue. His education should leave nothing to be desired and when he had graduated with more honors than were ever cap tured by any other student he was to be business man or
 The reentrance of the doctor inter rupted his thoughts.
 More congratulations, Hamlin It's another boy!' declared the medico. Hamlin's jaw dropped triAe. The news was something in the nature of an embarrassment of riches.

LARGE INCREASE.
Total of $50 Members Obligated In
Retail CIerks' AsHe mbly.

A meeting of Retail Clerks Union, No.
262 was held last evening at Typographical
Temple The meeting was called to order
by b. T. Davis president of the association,
when, after the disposal of preliminary rou-
tine business, $50 applicants We're admitted
to membership.
The attendance being too large for The
usual place of meeting, an adjournment WAS
had to the upper hall. The seating capacity
Of the larger hall was not sufficient, ard
many were compelled to stand in the aisles
during the session. The candidates were
obligated in groups of 100 by President
Davis.
During the ceremony of obligation an
overflow meeting was held in the hall on the
first floor, which was addressed oy John H
Brinkman. secretary of the Central Labor
Union, and Frank Morrison, secretary of
the American Federation of Labor.
Mr.. Brinkman's remarks were mainly con-
fined to the subject of the benefits derived
from organization. In the course of his re-
marks he incidentally referred TO the action
OF the Central Labor Union in placing a
local firm Of bakers on the unfair list
He stated that this action of the central
body was taken in the interest of trade
union organization as the employees of the
firm would not work with members of a
union. The only method of defense, he
stated, in such cases Is the refusal of or
ganized workmen to patronize such firms OF
To test the sense of the audience on the
question, Mr.. Brinkman requested all those
who Endorsed the action of the Central
Labor Union and who would refuse To pa
ronize the firm spoken of to raise their
hands, when every hand in the room went
up.
The meeting was a gratifying event Ia
those who are interested In trade union or
ganization 1t Is anticipated that in a
short time the clerks in most of the estab-
lishments in the city will become members
OF the union. Since the formation of the
association about six months ago the Or
ganiza ton has rapidly increased in men,
bership. until from charter roster of less
than half score there is a present men,
bership of nearly 1000.
1t is stated that the entire force o: clerks
in number of establishments are members
of the union, and in a short time ar official
display card will be issued by the associa-
ton informing the public of the fact
Through the clerks organiza ton and AT the
request of the Central Labor Union, 1t is
stated that number of prominent mer.
chants close their places of business at
o'clock Saturday evenings, and i. is ex.
| pected that within a short period the Gus
| tom will become general.

tract between them for separation. and she
asks the court to direct him to provide for
the support of herself and children. Mr.
Morris is stated to be clerk in the patent
Office and also pensioner.
