PRINTING 10000 POSTAGE
STAMPS 4 MINUTE

It is fact not generality known
that the United States has at Wash
iugtOn. d. c.. one Of the largest and
best equipped printing plants in this
or any other country Uncle Sam
may be safely said to hold the worlds
record as a printer-not only In size
of plant. number of employees and
extent of output but also in up-to-
date scientific management, efficiency
and economy
An interesting example of what this
sort Of modern efficiency means is a
machine which prints. gums and per-
forates 10000 postage stamps min
ute. Figuring on an eight hour day,
this is a production of 5.760,0OO two
cent stamps. worth $115,200, as a
days work for the two operators re-
quired on the machine The stamps
are shot out-there is no other way
to express it--at the rate of 20 feet a
minute This means over six miles OF
postage stamps a day.
The machine-eliminat 10 separate
operations required by the previous
method of printing and has effected
saving OF 81 per cent in cost. The
whole apparatus which is three feet
vide. twenty-five feet long and seven
feet high, is driven by a Crocker-
Wheeler motor. One man and a girl
are able 70 operate the entire machine

SIX TEAMS In
THE TRI-COUNTY

HAVRE DE GRACE. March 1.-The
managers Of the Tri-County Baseball
League met here today, and, besides
organizing for the season. materially
changed the rules. The greatest
change made was that the league will
be made up of six, instead of eight,
teams as heretofore They are Hayre
de Grace, EllSton, Elk Mills, Aberdeen,
Oxford and Newark. The action was
taken as a result of representatives
from Port Deposit and Northeast fail
ing to appear at the meeting and the
desire Of nearly all managers for a
shorter season The season viii
open on May 10 and close on Septem-
Der each team to play 20 instead
of 2S games, as played last year. The
only day upon which two games viii
be played is July 4.
No college player will be allowed to
participate in Tri-County League
games who Is not a resident OF the
district in which he plays. This rule
was adopted as result of Port De-
post playing two Tome Institute men
last year. which lost them the champ
ionship No player will be allowed
to receive for his services any salary
except necessary expenses, but II the
club has any money remaining at the
end of the season the same can be
divided equally among the players.
The new rules also require that no
person be allowed to play on any Of
the teams of the league VINO has re-
ceived a salary for his services dur
ing the season. For violation of this
rule the offending team shall be fined
/ $40. All teams are required 70 de-
posit with the treasurer OF the league
S25 as a guarantee fund. and in case
this amount be used up In fines an
equal amount must be deposited.
Should any player offer to buy or
sell a game he shall be suspended for
the remainder of the season. Should
any manager offer TO buy or sell a
game he shall be fined s25. The sal
AIRY of the umpire was fixed at S4 fol
a single game and Sc for a double.
header. Owing to the difficulty oc'
curing last year over the presidents
lack OF authority to decide the con
test between Port Deposit and Aber.
deem for the pennant, the following
rule was adopted:
"AH grievances, either with the
managers or players, shall be filed
with the pres sent and secretary, ahe
shall be decided by the president with
in 10 days after notification. Wher
double-headers are played the homo
team shall pay the visiting club Sl'
and furnish dinners.
"All tie and postponed games mus
be played off on the grounds upor
which they we're scheduled TO tak'
place on the day of the next scheduled
game of the same teams upon thos'
grounds"
No territory for players was as
signed the various clubs owing Z
lack of time.
The president was authorized to cal
upon the treasurer for necessary per
b sonal expenses in connection with thu
league. The following officers wer'
elected: President, d. ]. Moore. Of Ok

WAHLFARTH
MEETS FRIENDS
Baker, Believed to be Dead,
Returns to Wilmington
After One Year

The disappearance of Gottlief Wahl-
farth, a baker, aged about 80 years,
about year ago, was solved yester
day by the temperance Of the young
man at his familiar haunts.
When Wahlfarth left Wilmington
he took none Of his effects along
leaving behind him all his clothing
except that which he wore and a gold
watch. Benjamin r. Dunn, with
whom he boarded, at No. 903 Spruce
street could not account for his
boarders Disappearance. He had
paid his board and there was no rea-
son for him to leave and the matter
began to prey on Dunn's mind until
he resorted to the newspapers to To-
cate Wahlfarth. A search was made
but no trace Of the young man was
found Wahlfarth's friends came to
the conclusion that he had been
drowned or had met with foul play.
When he appeared among them yes
terday 1t was as though from the
dead
Wahlfarth explained that he left the
city after losing employment here.
He worked his way as far as Provi-
dence, Md, and there obtained a posi-
tion in a paper mill. He bought an
entire new outfit OF clothing and q
gold watch. The timepiece he left be-
hind he gave to Dunn who nearly col
lapsed with surprise when Wahl-
farth called upon him yesterday. Tho
erstwhile. baker now papermaking,
returned TO Providence today.
