HANDLING MAIL AT THE
 NEW PENNSYLVANIA
 TERMINAL, NEW YORK

Two classes of machinery are pro- vided, one for handling the outgoing and one for handling the incoming mail. The mail to be dispatched on, outgoing trains arrives at the sta ton in wagons, which are unloaded at the mailing platform. Here the mail pouches are sorted, some of them be- ing sent to the basement level through spiral chutes, where they are opened and the contents redistributed and fin- ally repouched; the reassembled pouches, together with the unopened pouches, are then fed into spiral chutes, which deliver them to con- veyor-belts located at the track level above the mail cars. The belts are provided with automatic trippers or unloading mechanisms, which may be set opopsite the door of any of the cars of the mail train, thus automatic ally unloading and transferring the mail through vertical slides directly into any one of the mail cars for which the apparatus has been set. Two belt-conveyors are presided over each of the four mail track platforms, one belt extending east and one west of the connecting spiral chutes, which are constructed with separate com partments, one for each belt. By this means two mail cars at each of the four track platforms may be load ed simultaneously.
 The speed of the apparatus may be estimated from watching the loading of one of the heavy Western mail trains which carries the early morn ing newspapers and steamer together with an enormous quantity of first calss mail matter to Western points, amounting in all to over 50 tons, comprising 1,200 to 1,500 mail pouches. Much of this mail is resorted and se- gregated for the different cars and despatched from the station in less than three hours, over 25 tons being bags being frequently unloaded into the cars at the continuous high rate of one every second. From the spiral chute entrances the bags descend through the winding convolutions, and continuing their journey along the rapidly moving belts, finally emerge at the door of the car. almost noise- lessly, the entire journey occupying about 30 seconds.
 To handle the incoming mails, open ings are provided in the train plat form into which pouches are thrown then transferred from these receiving hoppers or loading stations by means of belts located below the plat form floor A complex mechanism operated by compressed air is design ed to feed the pouches on to the belt at suitable intervals, so that the pouches may arrive at the end of the belt at the proper time to be nechan- ically transferred to the buckets of bucket elevator, by means of which the bags are elevated to the basement and mail platform levels of the build ing The belts and the bucket eleva- tor are all operated by single cleo tric motor-Joseph B.

HOUSEHOLD NOTES.

If when using lemon for flavoring you need only half of one, put the other half on a plate and cover With a tumbler. This will exclude air and will prevent it whitening or getting nlouldy.
 Frosted grapes are a most attrac- tive garnish for many a dish. Take white grapes and brush them oyer oyer with white of egg, and then sprinkle the punches of fruit we'll with gran ulated sugar.
 When using stale bread for pud- dings, always soak it in cold liquid. Bread that has been soaked in cold milk or water will be crumbly ana light. whereas if soaked in hot liquid it will be heavy.
 To ascertain if a cake is done. press lightly with the finger; if the sur face rebounds without making hiss ing sound, and if toothpick comes out clean when inserted in the center, the cake is done.
 An excellent way to remove spot from dark woolen skirt is to rub it hard with g. piece of soft old linen. In nine cases out of ten the spot will be absorbed by the linen without any cleaning fluid being applied.
 For meat pie crust, take a quart of flour. add three tablespoonfuls of
 
 teaspoonfuls of baking powder and a teaspoonful of salt. Work all togeth- CT as quickly and lightly as possible.
 For a kitchen apron no material gives so long wear and such general satisfaction as German printed linen, which comes in plaids and stripes. The line has smooth surface, which keeps in condition longer than the us- ual ginghan.
 If doughnuts are put into the oven served they will taste marvelously The flavor of doughnuts is improved if they are rolled in sugar on being taken from the oven.
 ion is used for seasoning purposes. If the onion is kept, take the precau- tion of wrapping it in paraffin paper. Onion is a natural disinfectant, and if left exposed will absorb much from the atmosphere.
 A spoonful of whipped cream is an admirable addition to cream soups. Placed in each plate or boillon cup of tomato bisque it adds greatly to the taste and appearance of that dainty and is equally good on cream of eel cry or cream of potato soup.
 Nothing adds more delfciousness to a fruit salad than canned pears. These should be slightly sweetened, mixed with bananas, pineapples, apples, oranges or any fruit in season A thick mayonnaise should be used and a spoonful of whipped cream placed on each top portion.

UNCLE JOE'S TROUBLES
Receives More Letters Than
 Any Man In Washington

Washington. Jan 3O-Who is "The Queen of England': ''The Government of the United States: His Majesty, the Head of the Government" and Uncle Joe'' all rolled into one?
 A highly intelligent corps of post office clerks in Washington have al ready found that rare combination in the person of Joseph Gurney Cannon, Speaker of the House.
 Cannon is known far and wide as ican Politics.. the ''Czar of the House" and. perhaps. owing to insurgents. by some other rather more .opprobdous nicknames. but the Government, through the Post Office Department. apparently gives substantiation to the complaint of insurgents that Uncle Joe'' is the main works in the ma chinery of Government.
 Probably no man in official Wash ington receives as many peculiar epls- ties as the Speaker. Cranks all over the country seem to single him out as month ''Uncle Joe" has received a let ter advising him that he is heir to a fortune running into millions (purely mythicaD; letter purporting to have been written by a patriotic American girl. warning against Japanese spies; a night letter of about 250 words. de- manding abolition of the U. s.

Geniuses with reform schemes write him many-paged com munications; inventors ask aid; beg gars pray for assis,ance: the army of the jobless demand places on the payroll: enthusiastic Republicans write to congratulate or condemn his views. and finally. plain cranks sub init all their grievances to him.

U. 5. WORT LEASE
 GALAPAGOS ISLANDS
 FOR NAVAL PURPOSES
Especial from United Press.)

Washington, Jan. 3o.-Negoti for the lease by the United States of the Galapagos Islands for naval pur- poses will probably be suspended in definiately it was said at the State Department, today, following the re- port of the anti-American demonstra- tions in Guayaquil, Ecuador. As the negotiations were opened at the re- quest of Ecuador, the State Depart ment feels that they cannot be press ed by this country in the face of the present opposition in that country.
 It was proposed that the islands be leased for 999 years and be used by the United States as a naval base for defense of the Panama Canal and any other operations in the Parific. The project is looked upon here largely as a money making scheme of Ecuadorean administrationists. Several presidents of that country have endeavored to consummate the deal. On the other hand there is no great interest in Washington, even among naval circles, in the proposed acquisition of the islands.
 According to the plan, the $15, ,000.- 900 suggested as the price of the lease was to be used in putting Guayaquil in a sanitary condition.

BRIDGEPORT MAN FLIES IN PLANE
 OF HIS OWN MAKE

Frank Payne, Bridgeport. aviator. in machine constructed by himself succeeded in making a number of sue cessful flights at the aviation field at Mineola, l.. l., yesterday, the ven ture marking his initial trip into the air.
 Some months ago MT. Payne set about the construction of an airship on plans according with the Curtiss model used by Hamilton. He com pleted his craft recently and then slipped quietly away to the aviation field at Mineola and there took in- struction in the art of handling aero planes.
 Yesterday he ventured into the air and was successful at the very first attempt. He rose off the ground to a height of 50 feet and showed complete mastery of his craft. He made six flights in all, despite the fact that there was heavy wind blowing.
 Mr. Payne's flights were witnessed by his wife. He returned to Bridge port last night and stated that he may arrange to make a flight in Bridgeport in the not far distant fu- ture,

THE STOCK MARKET
Watson, Alpers &

(Watson, Alpers & Co.)
 The stock market has had a con- siderable advance since the beginning of December. Profit taking has been in evidence, and it remains to be seen how far the absorptive powers of the Street have been developed. The pressure of such prof1ttaking would naturally be felt upon those issues which have been the leaders in the advance. and it might con- finue consistently with a reawaken- ed interest in other parts of the list. There is strong evidence that tho tendency, of affairs is toward intrinsic improvem ent; therefore we look for a progressive market course, but at the same time technical conditions may at any moment develop a tenn porary setback. and our advice would be to buy good stocks, but only when they are reactionary.

RIOTS AND FAMINE.

Washington, Jan. 30-Reassuring re- ports from the scene of the riots in the vicinity of Canton, China as to the safety of American missionaries have been received at the State De- partnent.
 From Lienchow word has been re- ceived that the rioters themselves have posted notices urging the people not to disturb the missionaries, whom they call the friends of the peo- ple.''
 The riots are ascribed to the attempt of the Chinese government to take a census and number the houses in the town. The disturbances, therefore, were directed against the government, and not against the Americans, as was at first reported. It is denied that the missionaries houses and property have been destroyed.
 Bands of robbers, driven to desper- ation by the famine, are menacing in habitants of the northern part of the provinces of Anhui and Kiansui, &C., cording to reports received at the State department. Villages whose in habitants possessed money and food stuffs have been plundered by the ma- rauders. Expectations have been quelled to a limited degree by means of the partially completed Tientsin- Pukow railroad, which enabled the government to send troops into the rests were made. and several offend CTS summarily executed
 The government has ordered $50000 worth of seed distributed among the farmers but many points will inter vene before the ground can even be plowed to receive it. The famine, which is affecting more, than 2.50000o persons, is due to the heavy rains of last summer, which ruined the crops.
 Though thousands are being em- ployed on the railway under construc- ton, more thousands are without work. Many entire families have emigrated to the south and the north looking for work Their search is sure to prove futile, however, as there Is always a surplus of unskilled labor in these districts, and the railway can employ no more men than at present.

BRITISH CHANCELLOR
 MAY LOSE HIS VOICE
Especial from United Press.

London, Jan. 30.-The Liberal party, today, is in danger of losing one of it's greatest assets, the. oratori- cal gifts of Chancellor of the Ex- chequer, David Lloyd-George. The Chancellor is suffering from a severe throat ailment which, it is feared. will end his public speaking career, in which he has shown greater sabil- ity than any other Liberal politician.
 That the Chancellor's condition is more serious than the public has realized was shown by today's an nouncement that he would not re- turn from the Riviera until after Parliament opens. Lloyd-George sought the milder climate of the Riviera in the hope of benefiting his throat but he has found but little re- lief. His presence in London at the opening of the parliament, tomorrow. is deemed most necessary but his physicians have warned him that to return at this time would permanent ly impair his throat.
