BlG TASK BEFORE
 POSTAL EMPLOYES Must Count and Classify Every Piece of Mail Han
 dled for 30 Days
Douglas International

The postoffices of the country have been called on to do some thing during the present month which they have never done before. st least during the recollection of present postal officials. During the month of May every piece of mail received or dispatched from the vari- ous postoffices of the country is to be counted each day. This work is supposed to have been ordered for the purpose of providing correct data for furnishing such information that may be called for by congress.
 We have started the biggest job ever imposed on the force in the Douglas postoffice," said Postmaster F. E. Caldwell this morning 'On May first we began. under instruc- tions from the postoffice department, 10 count the many pieces of mail handled each day. The circular calls for not only the counting of each piece of letter and paper mail re ceiyed and dispatched, but the nun Der of times each piece is handled must be carefully noted; this data must be provided for each class of mail so that the exact time of the office force may be segregated so that the time devoted to each of the classes of mail may be arrived at.
 During the last two years we have been called on to do many things in the way of keeping clos CT record of the work done in the office than ever before, but the job imposed for the month of May is the biggest undertaking ever provided For the Douglas office"
 Postmaster Caldwell stated this morning that the business of the Douglas postofice was constantly in creasing, which is the very best eyi. dence that Douglas is becoming -ore important as a business cen ter.

WHITE PARENTS DO
 AWAY WITH BABY
Cpouglas InternationaI.l )


 This morning a coroner's jury that was empaneled yesterday to examine into the death of a baby whose body was partially unearthed by a dog near the pumping station on Eight eenth street, brought in a verdict that it was the body of an un- known child, aged about one day that had died from a cause unknown on or about April p. probably white and apparently fully developed in 1hape and size. the body having been buried in a shallow grave and partly exposed by a dog digging. !"
 There was no solution this morn ing to the mystery of the finding Of a baby's body yesterday after noon by some boys, whose dog they discovered digging it up near the pumping station. The body had been buried for about ten days, a physi- elan said, and would soon have been completely consumed had 1t not been found. It was in such advanced ttate of decomposition that sex and nationality could not be determined but light brown hair leads to th' belief that it was of white parent age. Who the parents were wu' probably never be known or whether 1t died q natural death, from neg Iect or was made away with It is only clear that the body was hastily buried in very shallow grave and had been wrapped in rags before be- ing loosely covered with some six inches of loose earth. 't Is and probably will remain a mystery.
