New York, April 5.-One of the most
important steps yet taken in the
movement looking to the Improvement
of the transatlantic mail service will
lie inaugurated on the White Star line
steamships scheduled 10 sail today
from New York and from Liverpool
This involves the sorting of the mails
on board the steamships so as to be
ready for distribution when they ar
rive at their destination. The system
will be the same as that in use on the
American railroad cars. Despite the
great benefits to be derived from this
innovation it was brought about only
after long negotiation between the
postal authorities of this country and
Great Britain. If it proves as success
full as expected it will be extended to
other lines so as 10 cover all the
heavy transatlantic mails.

WOMEN AS POLE HUNTERS.
Need Less Oxygen Than Men and A.
ready Have Cold Feet.


Tire women are going with Peary
on his polar exploration trip. But
they are only booked for part of the
way. When the real difficulties may
be expected they will turn back to
warmth and civilization.
This is disappointing. If women
want to put a stop to such accusations
as that recently made by Labouchere,
that they cannot fight and therefore
should not vote, they ought not to
hack out of such expeditions as that
of Peary
By nature, women are adapted to
discovering the poles. The scientists
tell us that women breathe with the
upper part of their lungs and need less
oxygen than men. That is why they
can stand corsets and keep warm IN
diaphanous garments when man
| wants q summer overcoat. That Is
why they are so partial to ices. That
is why they seldom complain of colo
feet after tripping through the slusf
in slippers. What is needed, in ordel
to speedily find the North pole, is al
expedition whose members won't ge
