FLYING MACHINES OFFERED To CARRY
THE MAILS MIDDLE Of LAST CENTURY

Propositions were made to the Post
Office Department to transport the
mails with flying machines as far
back as 1S45, when Cave Johnson of
Tennessee was serving as Postmaster
General, says the Washington Star
Several interesting old letters on the
subject were found a few days ago in
the files of the departmnet.
The letters read as follows:
Mobile, Oct 81, 1S45.
"Hon. Cave Johnson.
Sir: 1 see in the Register and Jour
nal of this city an advertisement for
proposals for transporting the mails
of the United States to and from all
foreign ports, and particularly on sew

the most important commercial marts
in the world. I also learn from the
same source that it. is necessary for

United States, viz:

IF the Post Office Department will

miles an hour for one year from the
first day of May, 1916, for an amount
OF money equal to what it will cost to
construct any one of the largest-sized
vessels which are contemplated as
suitable for the service mentioned in
said advertisement.

is taken on the railway through the
Sierra in midwinter, thence to San

Golden Gate and over the azure seas
to the coral reefs, where the shark

Views of the public buildings &c

views of sugar cane plantations, Il

volcano NJ Haleakala, with views Of
the dead crater, cascades and lava

The burning lake in the crater of

.LEILEHUA BARRACKS
NOT MATERIALIZING

The local military weekly, The
Service, has the following: 1t is stated
definitely that the contemplated work
of erecting permanent barracks for
the troops of the 5tn Cavalry is held
up and temporary quarters now oc-
cupied will continue to be used in
definitely.
The 100000 available for the con-
struction purpose, however, instead
of lapsing at the end of the fiscal
period, June 80, continues to be re-
served for the original purpose, and
another 100000 goes to the fund,
making 100000 to be drawn on at the
start of the permanent works.
Just what is the reason for holding
up the permanent barracks at this
time is unknown, but it is not
thought to be through any possibility
of the site for the barracks being
transferred.
1t is likely that some special method
of construction, suitable to this eli
mate and local conditions, is under
consideration by the War Department.
