MANY SOUVENIR
CARDS DON 7 Go
POSTAL RULES BAR
TINSEL, GLASS, ETC
Ignorance of Rules by Local People
Makes Much Trouble for Postal
Pcople-One Hundred Fifty Cards
Sent TO Dead Letter Office Last
Week.

From the local postoffice hundreds
Of postal cards are being sent to the
dead letter office because the cards
are not mailed in accordance with
the rules Of the department. Last
week 154 cards were sent to the dead
letter office and another consignment
Is rapidly accommodating.
Most of the difficulty, according to
Postmaster Brown, arises from the
fact that people persist in mailing un-
wrapped cards having upon them
gilt or tlnsel. These are strictly bar
red by the postal department and
when sent such cards do not get
through the mail. They are barred
because Of the danger to the postal
clerks. Several years ago a New York
postal clerk suffered blood poisoning
and death because Of cut received
from a souvenir card.
The following selections from the
postal rules are here given for the
benefit of the public:
Cards bearing particles of glass,
metal, mica, sand, tinsel or other
substances, are unmailable, except
when inclosed in envelopes tightly
sealed to prevent the escape Of such
particles, or when treated in such
manner as will prevent the objec-
tionable substances from being rub
bed off or injuring persons handling
the mails"
Post cards or postal cards mailed
under cover of sealed envelopes
transparent orotherwise) are charge
able with postage at first class rate
two cents an ounce or fraction
thereof If inclosed in unsealed en-
velopes. they are subject to postage
according to the character of the
message-at first class rate If wholly
on partly in writing, or the third
class rate Zone cent for each two
ounces or fraction thereof) if en-
tirely in print, and the postage should
be affixed to the envelopes cover
ing the same"
Public Should Learn.
"If the public will but learn the
rules regarding these cards people
will be saved from sending forth cards
that never reach their destinations
and at the same time the postal peo-
pie will be saved much annoyance"
declared Postmaster ]. T. Brown.

GAVE HIS money
TO A STRANGER

Meeting in this city for the first
time, three young men, one from Louis
vile, Ky, another from Font Scott,
Kans., and the other from Los Angeles,
Cal, started out one evening the fore
part of the week to "do the redlight
district 1t is said that the lad from
Kentucky became sick and fearing
some of the inmates of the house,
would touch him for his wallet, turned
it over to the Fort Scott youth. The
two men did not meet again until the
lad was suffering with that terrible
feeling that comes the morning after
He asked his new acquaintance from
Fort Scott for his roll of bills, but the
Kansas boy told him that he had al
ready turned it over to him during the
night before and that he did not have
it. The Kentucky lad seemed to be-
lieve that the other fellow was trying
to work him, and accordingly asked
Justice White to issue a search warrant
that the contents of certain valise
which was being shipped via Wells
Fargo might be examined. Sheriff
Wilmoth received his orders from the
court and Immediately opened the va
lise, but found nothing that would in
dicate that the money had ever been
in it, Further investigation failed to
disclose anything of an discriminating
nature and the three lads were forgot
ten by the officials.
1t is said the Kentucky boy is still
wondering where his roll of bills is.

SMALL BLAZE
IN WAREHOUSE

While working in the small lot back
of the Citizens National bank building
yesterday afternoon, it is said that
Clarence McMillen was unconsciously
the cause of small blaze that for
time threat ened to do great deal of
damage to the buildings adjoining.
The rear end of the bank building
is used by C. D. Barnes as a ware
house and a number of boxes and cou-
siderable excelsior had accumulated.
Friday, Mr.. Barnes asked Clarence Ne
Millen to clean out the place and 1t
is believed that while engaged ct the
work match worked its way out of
his pockets and by some means un-
known to Clarence was ignited setting
fire to a pile of rubbish. Clarence was
carrying the excelsior to the Deacon
barn and upon returning from one Of
his trips, discovered the blaze. He
thought he could put it out alone, but
soon discovered that he was no match
for the fierce blaze that was quickly
climbing the small wooden outbuildings.

: When Glenwood people looked out
of their windows on last Saturday
morning, there was feeling of dis
appointment. Lowering clouds were
rolling swiftly from the west and rain
began falling. But when the Midland
and Rio Grande trains began pulling
in from all directions and thousands
of people, who had braved the threat

uptown, Glenwood knew that her straw
berry day would be hummer. And it
was.
Nearly five thousand people ate of

evening canvas was streatched at

largest crowds. The former came with

You are about to be called upon to he

teachers who will represent one of the
highest calings in life and who viii
come from every state in the union.
Thousands of them will attend the
meeting of the National Educational
Association in Denver from July to
10 and according to Prof Bethel. who
made the above statement to the Post
on Monday of this week, we may ok
pect some thousand or more to come
here for a few days.
Prof. Bethel spent few days in
Glenwood and vicinity in securing
plants of all kinds He is president of
the National Scientific Society and IS
also teacher of botany in the East
Denver high school. He finds the hills
around Glenwood to be filed with in
teresting specimens of plant life and
two years ago he discovered a sort #
snail that scientists had thought eN-
tinct some thousands of years ago.
That Glenwood wants these teachers,
every one of them, goes without say
ing and that we will entertain them
royally is certain. But there should lie
no delay in making arrangements for
them. Let us send literature to be
distributed among them while they are
in Denver and assist Prof. Bethel who
so kindly offers to work for the Glen
wood visit This is an opportunity
that must not be overlooked by our
advertising committee of the Board Of
Trade. If we can but get few of
the teachers from each of the states,
we will have an army of tourist boost
