WHAT BECOMES OF PINS

An old gentleman in the north Of
London has been making a series of
interesting experiments with a view
to finding a solution to the question
often asked: What becomes of the
countless myriads of pins, ETC., that
are annually lost?"
As he expected, he finds that 1t Is
the dfstinegrating effects of the air
which resolve even these fntractable
little instruments into their eIe-
ments. He put some Iunrdeds of
brass and steel pins, NEEDLES, hair
pins, etc, in a quiet corner of his
garden, where they would be subject
to all the destructive agencies of
dampness, earth, wind, etc., secure
from the predatory hands and dis
turbing feet of inquisitive intruders.
The results are curious. Ordinary
hairpins were the first (taking 164
days, on an average) to oxidize into

brownish rust - ferrous oxide -
which was scattered by the wind as
it was formed, and not trace of a
single one could be detected at the
end OF seven months. Common bright
pins took as long as eighteen months
before their combustion was COM
plete, but brass ones had been en-
tirely turned into green verdigris
long before that.
At the end of fifteen months an or
binary penholder had had its nib en-
tirely rusted away, but the wooden
stick was still almost unaltered. 1t
is probable that the paint on it had
somewhat of preservative effect
Some used wax vestas were almost
gone. with the exception Of the cot
ton wick, In less than eighty days
from the time they were deposited,
but the sulphur heads of some unfit
ones were as perfect as ever.

BOYS STEAL POWDER.

IT was reported this morning to
City Marshal o'Neil that three boys
had been seen to break off a heavy
paddock on the powder house of the
White Mercantile company on Or
chard Mesa. 1t is reported that they
entered the building and carried away
n large amount of giant powder,
coarse powder and-sun powder. 1t is
said that the boys made big fire and
exploded the powder enjoying the
dangerous fun Immensely.
This morning City Marshal oNoil

George Bacon, Belford and Raymond
BlcSnell were the boys implicated,
All are under fifteen years of age.
Up to this afternoon no complaints
have been filed consequently the boys
have not been taken into custody.

1t takes months and years to train a
man in the postal service and every
new clerk or carrier must go through
the same experience and must get to
know the people and the work before
he can become proficient and until he
does he will naturally make mistakes.
The new clerk must handle the mail
that is sufficiently addressed, and it
makes no difference whether the per-
son addressed is an old timer or a
new conner. If the clerk does not know
him personally he is just as apt to
put his mail in the general delivery
as to send il to his place of business
or his home.
Some of our corporations and big
business houses do business on care

ceive lot of monthly bills mailed by
them. Most of them have no street ad-
dresses on the envelopes. and very
many of them have the wrong init
ials of the parties they intend to
reach. This is essentially true of some
OF the public Offices also. and yet the

prompt and correct delivery. and in
most cases they do. Some of our

In the evening Mr.. Dodge spoke in

There was a large congregation at

POSTMASTER PRICE
Has Something TO Say Regarding
Complaints Made About
Poor Service.

The criticism offered by one of the
daily papers recently that there wa,
room for Improvement in the posta
service of this city, has been duly
noted and the postmaster is probably
as we'll aware of this fact as the edi-
tor of the aforesaid paper. and prob
ably more so. inasmuch as he must
hear sooner or later of every error
that Is made. Our faults are hereby
publicly acknowledged, because we
know that 1t is human to err. and It
is Just as easy for n clerk in the post
a mercantile business. or a printer at
the machine or at the case.
1t is not our purpose to make ex-
cuses for the careless mistakes, but
in this connection the postmaster
would like to call the attention of
the public to some careless things that
are done by the public which causes
no end OF worry and work for the
postofiice and the postoffice depart
ment, and particularly the local post
office force.
Delay in the delivery of mail is
nearly always traceable to the fact
that the letter or article is not cor
rectly addressed. or has not sufficient
address so that the postoffice clerks
may know just where it goes. Grand
Junction is no longer village. and
there are from ten to twelve thousand
people who get their mail through
this office, many of them of the same
name and many families of the same
name. and even the same initials. 1t
is physically impossible for any one
man or set of men to remember who
these people are Individually. or to
remember their addresses.
1t would be impossible to go
through the city directory for all the
names that have no addresses, be-
cause that would take so much time
We could not get the work done at,ali.

GETTING IN DEEP WATER.

Answering Mr.. McCulloch's article
published, in Saturdays News. will
say that it was not our intention to
publish our contract as to the pur-
chase of the Valley Feed company.
but as Mr.. McCulloch desires to give
publicity to same, we are perfectly
satisfied.
This agreement was gotten up
simply for our own protection, at
the time of said sale and to afford
them time to liquidate their outstand-
ing Indebtedness. We did not ques-
tion the honesty or integrity of Mr..
wentworth, but it was our opinion
that Mr.. McCulloch was incompetent
to handle that amount of money,
without providing some safeguard for
ourselves. AS Mr.. McCulloch had re-
peatedly stated that he would leave
the city to engage in other business.
this agreement was for our protec-
tion, had he left the city at the time
ne stated that he intended to go.
Neither Mr.. Wentworth nor Mr..
McCulloch ever protested against our
use of the name "The Valley Feed
company" in the Telephone directory
or in any other place.
Feeling that enough has been said
upon the matter, we are now willing
to take the position of the Scotchman,
who attempted to kill the skunk in
the woodplle. His efforts failed. the
hired man desired to know the rea-
the reply was that the animal being
cornered and there being no escape,
he believed that his own stencil would
| kill him.
So we shall continue to saw wood

position of the animal in the woodpile

tions and falsifying in this matter
