This change should be made by all

ENGINEER [. G. HILL
RETURNED YESTERDAY
He Had Been Looking Over His Wild
ened Field of Operations, Inspecting
Former Work and Planning More.

Supervising Engineer L. c. Hill. Of
the reclamation service. returned To
Phoenix Yesterday after an absence of
six weeks. looking after affairs on the
other end of his big reclamation ranch
which now embraces the states Of ok
lahoma. Kansas. New Mexico. a part
of Colorado. Arizona and southern Cal
ifornia. He isn't exactly the king of
all this country. but in his own line he
is the big chief of everything that IS
going on. Unlike most rulers. he is
not reaching out for more territory,
but on the contrary his superiors keep
adding TO what he has without his
knowing anything about it. \ big part
of this wide domain was placed I'M
der his Jurisdiction a ter he left here
and he got the information that ne was
''it' in a roundabout way. He was in
Kansas City when a consulting ensi-
neer asked if he was going with him
TO Garden City. Kansas. He replied
that he was not. when the other man
told him he had better go,since he was
the supervising engineer of the pro-
ject. Then he got busy and found he
had missed the instructions advising
him of his wider field. which had been
sent to Arizona while he was on his
way east. He went to Garden City.
Speaking of the Garden City pro-
ject. ne says il is rather a unique one
and different from the others in that

BUSY OCTOBER DAYS
IN TIE P0STOffiCf
There Will be Such an Inventory Of
Mails as Was Never Before Under
taken in the United States.

The ordinary everyday work of
first or second class postCffice. or even
a good lively third class office is no
job for a ioafer but every now and
then an extra task is required by the
department that puts the postoffice
employer on their mettlc. one Of those
times is just now at hand. At the last
session Of congress some of the gen
tlemen decided that the statistical in
formation concerning the business of
the department was too meager, and a
law was passed directing the depart
ment To proceed to gather up few
facts as soon as possible. in addition
to the regular reports that are pub
lished and which cover a multitude of
things. Information was required
chiefly as to the tonnage Of different
classes Of mail. its origin and destina-
ton, etc. This is what is being done.
Commencing July 1st every postof-
flee in the country has been weigh
ing separately each of the four classes
Of mail matter received and despatch
ed. together with two other classes,
the franked matter and that sent in
penalty envelopes. The weight is also
taken of ali equipment carried in con-
nection with the mails and all empty
equipment necessarily transported
from one place to another where it is
required. That work will be continued
daily until December 81. giving a six
months test on the volume of mail
handled. and showing how much Of
the business is deadhead. and how
much excess or deficiency OF revenue
comes from classes on which postage
is paid at one rate or another.
1t might seems that that would be
quite a comprehensive job. but that
is only a breaking of the ice. The
real work comes in October when the
postoffice employees will get right
down into the very heart OF things and
it would seem will be able to almost
tell whether any particular man in the
United States sent a letter TO his best
girl or not.
Beginning Tuesday morning October
1st at midnight, during the month Of
October for thirty days, while the
indicated above is continued.

would seem that this is rather a thor
oush figuring up Of the postoffice bust
ness. but wait minute. and hear
about the real meat in the cocoanut.
For the seven days October IL TO
October 10 inclusive. there viii be a
counting of every piece of mail mat
ter of each class and an accounting
for the revenue derived by the govern
ment from each class which will be
still further separated into thirteen
subdivisions. there being added 10 the
schedule the separation Of first class
matter into letters and postal cards
and the separation o; second class
matter. in addition To the free circula-
ton and sample copy classes. into
classes or parcels Carrying each on,
cent postage and two cents postage
In addition to the above. there will
be a weighing of all mail going on or
taken off each train for thirty days.
From the above it may be imagined
that the postoffice forces will see rath-
or a busy October and that when con-
gress meets gain the information the
gentlemen will require will be avail
able. 1t is hoped however that if any
thing has been overlooked con gress
through its natural mOdesty will not
hesitate to ask for il. Moreover It is
quite possible that in this careful scru-
tinizing of the mails. some eagle-eyed
clerk may chance upon the lette- that

LONG A RESIDENT OF CITY

LIFE WAS IDENTIFIED WITH
GAAR, SCOTT e. CO.

Joseph Boyd Craighead, one of Rich

Tenth street yesterday afternoon at
half past three o'clock from the eff
fects of complication OF diseases.

Mr. Craighead's first connection with
the business of Gaar, Scott * Co,

In 1883 Mr.. Craighead became vice
president of Gaar, Scott & Co. In
this position he always gave his per-
sonal supervision to the accounts and

portant branch of the business gives
evidence of his successful plotting,
for which his early business ira ming
thoroughly fitted him Mr.. Craig

IDA MAY TULLE IN
L|MEL|GHT AGAIN
Breaks from the Home of the
FriendIess and Makes Good
Her Escape.
THE POLICE KEPT QUIET
AUTHORITIES AFRAID TO TELL
THE NEWSPAPERS FOR FEAR
IDA WOULD FIND OUT THAT
SHE WAS AT LARGE.

Ida May Tulle, she of much unpleas-
ant notoriety in Richmond and sur
rounding towns dotes on being in the
full glare of the limelight. She Is
never SO happy as when figuring in
some unusual escapade.
Ida's latest along this line is a sue
cessful break for liberty from the
home of the friendless. Although she
secured her freedom from the insti-
tuition in question by crawling through
a window last Saturday no announce
ment of the fact was made by the
police department until yesterday,
possibly for fear Ida might by a per-
usal of the newspapers become pos
sessed of the secret that she was no
longer behind prison bars.
The cell in which Ida was confined
was cold, and she asked to be given
the privilege of the corridor, where
there was plenty of heat. Her re-
quest was granted, and an hour later
she made her escape by means of a
window, as heretofore stated, descend
ing to the ground on a ladder, which
the matron thinks had been left there
by one of the carpenters engaged in
making repairs to the building.
The woman is supposed to be in
Eaton, but it is not likely that any
strenuous efforts will be made to ef-
feet her capture, as the authorities
say Eaton's loss is ARichmond's gain.
