Falls on I'm Hating and Fielding
DoIan King sluRger.

In both batting and fielding Omaha took
a serious slump last week, which was such
a disastrous one in the matter OF winning
games. Ot the three .3O0-hitters, Welch,
Dolan and Perring not one failed TO fall
in his batting, although none fell far.
Welch fell just far enough, however for
Dolan to take the lead for the team with
an average of 1924 SluggeT Gonding took
another drop, but still Is batting fairly
well for a catcher and better than most OF
them Gondins caught all the eight games
played during the week. Carter quit the
fielding average Of $50, both being below
his averages of the week previous. This
general slump in individual work bri ings
had very had.

CARRIERS in MOROCCO.
Rural Free Delivery Basis of System
Remarkable Postmen.

The rural free delivery system in
America is the outgrowth of many
years experience, says the Youths
Companion. 1t comes as a late result
in the process of development. In
Morocco, on the other hand, it seems
to be the basis of system yet to be
formed; only there is one respect in
which the two methods differ; that
of the United States is maintained at
the Moroccan system is source of
revenue, according to the following
account given by the author of Moor
ish Lotus Leaves:
Swinging along at jogtrot ma
tive courier-a barelegged and bare
headed fellow, with a pair of coarse
slippers thrust into the hood of his
ragged cloak and wallet on his back
approached our party, and, hating,
leaned upon his long staff, while he
informed us that the head of Cid
Melood's oppressor adorned a gate
way in the principal market o Mara
kesh.
Mail trains and native post Offices
being nonexistent, these hardy letter
carriers represent the whole postal
system of Morocco. Superintended by
a government commissioner, a corps
of couriers, as trustworthy as they
are indefatigable, is to be found in
every town.
Ready at an hours notice to under
take the longest journey, perhaps
through disturbed districts, always
over miserable roads, generally sleep
ing in the open air, the courier has
been known to do the double trip from
Mogador to Marakesh-about 270
4les-within five days and half,
the fee, a small portion of which
goes to the government, being just 81.
This, it should be borne in mind, is
the pay of special courier, On any
additional chance letters he may car
ry the charge is something under two
cents.
