wICHTTA's 1IATHE9IATICIAN.
Produces Some Rather Remarkable
Figures on Postage Stamps.

A mathematician on the Wichita
Beacon got busy the other day with
these results:
If the postage stamps sold at the
Wichita postoffice in a year, figuring
on the rate of sales for the first fif-
teen days in the month of October,
1906 as a basis for the years sales,
were placed end to end, they would
make a band of paper thirteen-six-
teenths of an inch wide that would
extend along all the street car lines in
the city, run to Winfield and return to
Main street and Douglas avenue, go
to Paramount college and back, and
follow six miles of Wichita streets and
reach to the office of The Beacon be-
fore the last stamp was used
If these stamps were again gath
cred and placed side by side so as to
make one sheet of paper, 1929 Bea-
cons of ten pages each, could be cut
from it.
The size of a postage stamp, special
delivery not included, is about thir
teen iXteenths by fourteen-siXteenth
of an inch. The Wichita post Office
sells annually 1.680,000 one-cent
stamps. If these stamps were placed
end TO end they would reach 23A
miles. The 2-cent denominations would
extend 81 miles The 1-eent and >
cent stamps are the denominations
mostly used by the public. The next
best sellers are the 4-cent and scent
issues. me following IS q llSt showing

Demand for Arbitration.

NEW YORK. Apr. 19.-No word
came from John Mitchell yesterday
in reply to The operators rejection Of
the miners last proposal for arbitra-
ton. As the official answer was not
forwarded to his until Tuesday night
he probably did not receive it until
late last night and had only telegra-
phic information as to the operators
decision.
Wherever the matter was discuss
ed by local dealers the opinion was
stronger than ever before that there
will be a hard fight in the anthracite
fields. Dealers here believe that
Mitchell is bending every effort to
make terms with the bituminous op-
orators and thar as oon as he has
assurance that q large number of soft
coal miners will remain at work the
strike in the hard coal regions will
be begun.
Among the operators yesterday the
events of the last year leading up to
the preseug difficulty We're reviewed
and Mitchell was held responsible for
most Of the trouble. In MitchelIs of

Look Out for the SWindIcr.

A petty swindler has been work
ing various New Jersey towns, fleece
ing people out of small amounts by
representing himself to be an agent
of Hahne & Co., Newark, and selling
tickets calling for photographs at
reduced price. This man, who is de-
scribed as Il smooth-tongued individ-
ual, secures a deposit of soc for the
ticket. He works only a few days in
a town, so that by the time the peo-
pie discover that he has m~isrepresent-
ed himself and secured their money
under false pretence, he is out of
their reach. AS Hahne & Co. en-
ploy no agents whatever to canvass
in this way, people are advised not to
pay money TO anyone selling photo
graph tickets, and representing them
selves to be with Hahne & Co, New

WIND AND DOOR AS
A BURGLAR ALARM.

WESTFIELD. Apr. bly, leav-
ing a window open when they entered
a house to loot it yesterday, burglars
thought they wore leaving a means of
escape. AS Il fact, what they did was
to arrang a sort of burglar alarm,
for the wind blew through the open
ing and slammed a door shut with a
bang that awakened a dweller in the
house. THEN the burglars fled, but
they must have been in the house
many minutes, for they took silver
ware valued at $500.
The house was that of p. r. G.
Sjostrom, ut No. 294 Elm street. Mrs.
Siostrom was the only member of the
family at home. The slamming of
the door awoke her and she got up
and turned on the electric light. Hear
ing no more, she went back to bed.
At daylight she arose and found her
s|ideboard depleted.
Burglars, probably the same men,
entered the house of George b. Dick
crson, at Dudley venue and Prospect
street. They got Dickerson's gold
watch and about $500. The cash they
got from Dickerson's trousers peck
