Nine Governors Pay Tribute to Cath

Nine Chief Executives of as many
Of the Western states with a large
number of prominent citizens who
came with them, in their special train,
visited Kalamazoo, Michigan, on tho
29th of November. 1t was the privilege
of the Sisters of st. Joseph of Naz-
arrth Academy, to entertain this dis
ticguished gathering. reception was
1ohucred them by the Faculty and stu
dents. Several of the guests gave ad-
dresses, extracts of which are here
with given.
Governor Chase S. Osborn, Michigan,
said: Il wish to join with you in
thanking these worthy Governors and
statesmen. for their visit to Michigan,
and particularly for their visit to Naz-
areth, for 1t is a great honor, but feel
may speak in their names, and say,
that we all feel repaid. We may feel
proud OF such a gathering, and in such
an institution as this we know that the
noble women, Sisters. are doing all in
their power to make good American
citizens. / fully subscribe to

not Catholic myself. ! am learning
more and more to admire the Catholic
faith, and the members of its rcIi-
Eion.'
Governor John Burke, South Dakota,
said: Il know that you are not going
, to forget the training that you are re-
ctiving here, that will make good pa
triotic citizens. Many in South Dn-
kota are from Michigan and | know
now why they are good citizens. ! do
not wonder when I see the nstitu-
tions, the training you have in your
schools; / do not wonder aftcr all l
have seen here. Remember the pa
triotic lessons you have learned from
your teachers here. It will be
so Tlllcn easier TO ODcN the laws or me
land when you leave the school and 20
out into the world to fight the great
battle of life. ] believe no student OF
this school that will keep in mind the
teaching and training he receives here,
will ever violate the laws of this coun-
try"
At the public banquet rendered the
visiting Governors at the New Bur-
dick, in the presence of two hundred
prominent citizens Governor III. Brady,
OF Idaho, said "If we see nothing
more. and hear nothing more than we
have seen and heard at Nazareth
Academy this morning, | feel sure that
we will be more than amply repaid for
the inconvcnicnces OF our trip. 1t was
n revelation. The good Sisters are
training in grand way the young to
be great citizens of this country"

cities, when the great rush Incident to the loading
of mail at the hour of departure Of fast trains
will be eliminated entirely by this system.
think the plan will be to erect platform, say 100
yards from the station, with as many cranes as
necessary for the delivery Of mail for the out
going trains. The pouches will be placed on these
cranes during the day, and up until the hour when
the mail closes, and the train will pick them up,
taking each sack and deposting it in the car as it
moves away from its depot without hustle or noise
without the labor of half dozen men. In this
service there is no room for mistake either, BY
adoption and use of the mail exchange system,
newspapers, money pouches, important matter of
every class and character up to 1,200 pounds will
be carried on fast trains.
Local Mail Trains May Be Abandoned
There will be no further use Of the local trains
for the railway mail system; the small interme-
diate station which uses the local train now will
use the fast train then. This service will be as
adequate as the service of the fast train is
adequate; this service will be satisfactory as tho
present satisfactory service Of the big cities. The
merchant in the large cities will receive the inn
portant mail of his country customers on fast
trains instead of slow ones. The entire system OF
delivery of mails and the receiving of mails in
cars will be changed. A quick service will be
inauguarted for all classes Of mail and as under
stand it, Postmaster General Hitchcock and the
department is eager for whatever is an important
Improvement.
Invention Based on Natural Laws.
Mr.. Hupp went on to say that he considered
the introduction of the Hupp Mail System and its
effect upon the mail service valuable but that the
principle of it not wonderful at all. Only the
simple, practical ordinary laws with which all
are familiar are drawn on to complete the inven-
tion And much of it was suggested by the devices
employed today in jobbing houses, and with which
he was at that time familiar and in which he be
came interested. Mr.. Hupp left Friday for Kansas
City and from there will proceed to Washington to
overlook the daily demonstrations before govern
ment officials.

Who the Hupps Are.

The Hupps are best known in Missouri, and
it is there that the inventor chose to make his first
demonstrations of his device. 1t was there that
he began first to receive substantial recognition Of
its wonderful merit.
In the offices of his brother, Irwin Hupp, 91S
City National Bank Building, Wednesday, the III
ventor spent most of the day. He had not slept
well the night before and did not meet many Of
his acquaintances in Omaha.
ST shall not be satisfied" he said, referring
to the demonstrations at Washington just about
to begin, "until we are able to show those people
that we can catch and deliver mail on trains run.

An Easy Thing to Do.

When he was asked if he could really do that,
he smiled and without replying said ION the rail
road where we are demonstrating, the rail is light
and trains do not make so miles an hour. [ am
informed, though, that provision will soon be
made whereby on parts of the track heavier rails
will be laid SO that we may show the possibilities
of the device 1t is as easy for this system to take
a dozen sacks of mail into the car running at a

high rate of speed as it is to take single sack
into slow moving train. 1t is all done auto
matically and the same way. There can be no
mistake about it. 1t can work only when the
train moves and the revolution of the wheels is
part of its performance and necessary to its oper
alton.

mediate stations along the lines recelv-
ed on fast trains and delivered on fast
trains just as they were forty years ago
If there are 300 pounds of mail at these
stations to go; if 300 pounds are just as inn
portant as the ten pounds which is taken up it
must be held for another tran--a level train and
a slow train; the clerk cannot receive it; the
crane cannot take it in. And often even, with this
small pouch it is hurled under the moving train
and ground up, and in instances every year, the
industrious clerk who makes efforts to protect the
pouch is drawn from the car himself, to death.
Newspapers the Most Important Mail
Again. admitting the claim that letters filled
with money and with urgent appeals for help of
the sick, with the notices of death even, are i'm
portant and should be crowded into the ten-pound
sacks first, in event that the postmaster and the
clerk knew what the purport was, am constrained
to believe that the newspaper-the daily news
paper-is the most important piece of mail carried
on our trains today. Ten persons in a small town
of 200 people may constitute the number of those
receiving letters daily but in all likelihood $50
get the daily newspaper And say only fifty get
it, in all probability the news that it contains is
before the other 100 in few hours. | look on the
newspaper as our greatest civilizer-our greatest
educator. Now think of this being delivered on
only main lines by fast trains. And where trans
fers have to be made on fast trains, which cross
to in the delivery of these papers, In the east
this is a serious hindrance; ultimately it will be
here, new lines are projected.

Deliveries Without Aid of Clerks.

Down in Washington we expect to demon
strate every day when get started that the mail
exchange system will operate on cars without
clerks We will place pouches on the cars to be
delivered, and the others on platforms at stations
to be taken on, and the doors will be locked The
car will not have an occupant and the device will
transact the business of receiving and depositng
mail at the proper station automatically and cor
rectly. expect to see the time come in the large

Possible With Automatic Machines.


To be successful it must be automatic and
looking around the room he said, "If it was not
for these automatic devices would not have this
table, that chair, desk or anything made today
which is made well. Think of the parts of the
engine being made any other way. Think how
impossible it would be to make the same piece of
iron the same way twice. No mechanic on earth
could do it,
When first began to think about the mail
system of the country, learned that the present
invention, that is, the mail cranes such as are
employed on fast trains today, were adopted as
early as 1869, and that this system was then con
sdered inadequate. When l thought of the won
derful strides made in every branch of commerce.
and of the countrys remarkable development in
every respect, it occurred to me that the most, inn
portant requisite, demanded by our country's
vast growth, has been overlooked That the sys-
tenn Of forty years ago, when the population of
this country was 100000, is made to serve to-
day, when the population is 92OOOOOO.

4 n ing visit recently.
The inventor resides in Kansas City and is
returning from Washington, where he has about
completed arrangements with the government and
the Chesapeake railroad to make daily demonstra-
ton of his device before members of congress and
government officials during the present session.
The inventor is exceedingly interesting
conversationalist He is unassuming and gives
force to his remarks by employing the simplest
expressions and by using apt and practical illus
trations
In describing his device and its ultimate in
fluence upon the physical and mechanical opera
ton of the governmental mail system of the coun-
try, one is impressed with the magnitude of the
inventors claim, and of the absolute certainty
that he is establishing it.

Passenger Service Increased Annually

Passenger service is increased every year; we
have not lost sight of the comfort of travels. We
have provided faster trains for their accommoda-
tions, we have added from year to year what we
have believed would heighten their pleasure; in
fact it is short trip and pleasant one across
tn ecountry but how few people travel, after all,
compared with the millions who are at home re-
ceiving mail every minute of the day. 1t is al
most ridiculous to contrast the facilities for travel
in 1869 with those of 1911. People would not be
satisfied with it today, and yet they have made
no advances in the exchanging of mails on the
fast trains. Ten pound sacks of mail, from inter

While Carl Becker was standing in
front of W. C. Lights store Wednes-
day noon, a rife bullet grazed his
hand, and made hole thru the plate
glass window. The appearance of
the hole in the glass indicates that
the bullet came from the inside of the
store, but Mr.. Light and several
others were in the store at the time,
and all say that there was no shot
fired in the store. Where the bullet
came from is therefore considerable
of mystery. The back door was
open, and the screen has couple of
small holes in it, so the only possible
explanation seems to be that the bull
let came thru the back door and was
DETECTED to the point where 1t went
thru the window.
