LAUNDRY BOYS WIPE
 UP CAPITOL NINE
Defeat the West Endcrs m Close
 Score of 12 to il.

The recently organized Arizona Laundry baseball team cleaned up the team representing the Capitol in the Valley league yesterday afternoon in Q closely contested game upon the Capitol diamond. Of course. that is the business "f the Laundry boys. but it seemed for time that the cleaning process would be directed against the amateurs from th" studs factory. Tn" final score was r. to II.
 At no time during the entire con test did the game belong to either side, there being q host of good plays upon the part oi both teams. Notable among these were two home runs by Cook of the Laundry team and a three-b baSger by Luhrs of the Capitol team. The base running was very fast and some phenomenal slides were made. The Laundry boys had Noss and Colby for their battery. while Ames and Fitch pitched and caught for the Cdpitols. Linn was the um- pire.
 The Arizona Laundry team is very much elated over their first game and are very keen to take on the best of the amateurs as fast as games can be arranged.

CLEANS UP ALLEY AS

Street Commissioner Completes City's Part Of Clearing Adams
 Wreckage.

Street Commissioner .. II. ChristN announced last evening that the force of men he had put to work clearing the debris from the alley back of the site of the Hotel Adams had cumplct ed it's lstborS and had been paid off A situation somewhat out of the or dinary confronted the Commissioner following the big fire but he Was equal to the occasion and before the fallen bricks had cooled h. had his men upon the scene cndeaNorinS to make the alley pasSable. By reason of the narrownesS of the thorough fare he could not work more than half d dozen men to advantage but that number proceeded to make quick work of the job.
 Four teams were kept busy CartinS away the refuse and early yesterday morning the alley was again thrown open. Again this time it was noted that a bad odor was arising from the wrecldGe proper and upon in- Vestigation it was found that the great refrigerator of the hotel had been well stocked at the time of the fire and the contents of the big ice box was in d state of putrefaction. The men who had been at work in the alley were put at work unCOVering the refrigerator and in q short time had laid the contents bare. Garbage wagons were pressed into service and in d short time everything had been made as sanitary as possible under the conditions.

Three Billion Letters Year Now Bear

The rural free delivery service of
 the United States means tn. distri-
 button of nearly 5.000. .000. 900 letters and parcels annually along the highways and byWayS of every state and terri tory from Maine to Alaska \ force of ! il 900 carriers daily go over the routes
 assigned to them.
 Bringing the mail to the farmer now
 costs the nation s36 1000, GOO q year in salaries. expense of eXamming new
 routes. maintaining postoffices, pay
 ments of inspectors. special agents, I clerks and chiefs of bureaus.
 To secure information to make ! changes in routes and carriers where 1 deemed necessary, to establish new routes and to record and tabulatc sta | tistics and data for the postmaster general as well as for the public force
 of only l10 persons is required in | Washington in spite of the great amount of office work and correspnd , ence that must be finished daily.
 over d million letters are received and answered by the department of rural free delivery in a year. Many of those received are merely addressed to the department. To save time of open | ing and reading missives not properly directed is d part of the work of the mailing section. It includes private Dostoffice through which every letter received or sent relative to rural de i livery must pass.
 Every one of the half million or more
 letters sent from this department is copied for record by mechanical sys-
 tem which saves the labor of hund- red copying clerks even where the hand copying press or the carbon meth cd has been employed A force of only seventeen clerks is needed in this sec tion, says the Bookkeeper. vet in ad ditiun to handling and copying mail they keep a daily record of all the out lay for postage expenses of the depart ment and sort and examine the hund- trcds of letter daily received which must be returned to the postoffices where they should have been directed.

Every import ant item of statistics is tabulated in type.
 The esprit de corps of the rural free delivery is best shown by the last an nual report. During the year it states that out of the II 900 in the service the total dismissals for cause were only 165. less than the total number of deaths.
 The reasons for the dismissals were principally incompetence and failure to obey instructions. No dismissals what ever for stealing from the mails or other dishonesty were on the records

JAP QUICK AT FIGURES.
Using An Abascus, He Beat Bank
 Clerk With Adding Machine.

At meeting of the Tasoma chap | ter of the American Institute of Bank Clerks the other night a Japanese
 clerk. using q "saroban." put it all over" Tacoma bank clerk using d
 modern adding machine in casting up d long column of figures. The Japanese, with his 'sitroban, did the arthmetical stunt" in thirty seconds. while the bank clerk, with his modern adding machine. took fifty four seconds to obtain q total,
 and arterward it was found the clerk
 or the modern adding machine had
 made an error. while the Japanese
 with his little abacus or ''saroban'' obtained the correct result the first
 time. In another test the Japanese
 might make an error. as did the bank clerk However. it iS significant that the Japanese did not err and that he obtained q correct result far more quickly. though he used an ancient arithmetical device.
 The Japanese that won the contest in adding was once d clerk in a bank at osaka Japan. He disclaims being an expert in adding and says many Japanese are much faster on the ''saroban" than he. The little old fashioned adding machine used by the Japanese is what we call m abacus Years ago in our public school rooms the abacus used to hang on the wall. and it was some times used in the study of arithmc- tie. It is not used much nowadays. though it would appear from the speed and acccuracy of the Japanese that it might he employed with good results
 The abacus in use in China is known as the swan pan. The Chi nese are also rapid calculators. The ab:ccus is very simple device when compared with tine modern adding machine IL is probable that it re- uuires more practice and more arith- metical ability to get correct re suits from abaCuS than are required with the modern adding machine.
 The abacus is very ancient. It was used by the Egyptians and Greeks in a for msimilar t0 that now used in Japan China, Arabia and Russia. The word is traced through the Greek to a word meaning dust It is said that dust was spread upon board and that numerals were inscribed in the dust
 In early times the Greeks used such
Arizona republican., 1910-05-22

q board. and it is. supposed that ge- omctry as we'll as arithmetic was taught with the use of that kind of an abacus. Later an abacus was de- Nclopcd in which beads slid on wire or in grooves, the beads having a value depending upon column. This was probably like the abacus now used in Japan and China. The word calculate" is traced to a Greek word meaning pebble. II is supposed that pebbles were used in the carly abacuS
 The victory of the Tacoma Japa- nese with his 'saroban' over one of our bank clerks with q modern add ing machine is not an exceptional in- stance. \ few months ago. when the Japanese commercial commissioners visited the United States. q contest was held in which q Japanese came out ahead in q calculation contest in which he used an abacus.-Tacoma Ledger.
