ADJUSTMENTS.

Few, if any, of the John Drew offerings
of modern comedy are stronger in senti-
mental appeal than MY Wife, which
will be presented by the Columbia Play
ers at the Columbia Theater next week
The play was adapted from the French
by Michael Morton, and while it pre-
serves the piquancy of its birth 1t also
has deep heart interest. The role OF
Trixie should afford Miss Helen Holmes
as great an opportunity for the exploita-
ton Of her dramatic art as Mr. Van
Buren, will find in Gerald Eversleigh
Billie Burke played Trixie during the
Empire Theater run. The entire Column
bia company will appear In the play.

Postmaster Norman Allen Merritt has
just recommended to the department a
plan, which IL carried out, will advance
from one to four hours the time Of de-
livery of a great mass Of mail distributed
from stations b. at 4th and East Capitol
streets, which supplies the Capitol Hill
section; F, at 143S U street northwest,
which supplies the big residential and
business section of Mount Pleasant and
contiguous territory, and G. at 613-615 G
street northwest, the big depot for mail
for the northeastern section of the city.
On all the mail trains coming into Wash
ington there are railway postal clerks
who make what are known technically
as fine distributions of the mail for de-
livery. That is to say the mails for diff
and segregated by them so that when re-
ceived at the main post office but little
time is lost in getting them to the sta
tons or branches from which delivery is
made.
Means Greater Speed.
Postmaster Merritt has suggested to
Postmaster General Burleson that If the
postal clerks will assert the incoming
mails into four distributions. namely, for
the main Office and for each of the sta
tons mentioned, they can be sacked and
labeled direct for the destinations to
which they should go and the automobiles.
in the city service can get them direct
from the trains and carry them direct to
the main office or station to which they
belong, where they can be quickly routed
by the carriers and promptly carried out
for delivery, instead Of first passing
through the main post Office.
By this arrangement, 1t Is carefully es-
timated, from one to four hours can be
saved in the delivery of the big incoming
mails. and great many letters can be
delivered on the last carrier trip of the
day from the stations which now have
to lie over until the following morning.
Sometime ago Postmaster Merritt pro-
vided for the reverse of this so far as
outgoing mail IS concerned, by arranging
that the mail collections from the entire
northeast and southeast sections of the
city, except from lexington and from
that part OIL the northwest section con-
ugious to the Union station, be sent d.
rect to the terminal station for d.
rect outward dispatch, instead of being
brought into the station at 4th and East
Capitol streets and thence to the trains.
This plan practically secured for all the
mail matter affected by 1t direct service
from the street letter boxes to the trains,
and saved from one-half to two hours in
the time of the outward dispatch of the
mail.

One OF Greatest Reforms.

One of the biggest reforms IN the local
service accomplished by Mr.. Merritt. and
one, perhaps which has benefited a larger
number Of people than any which pre-
coded it, was the removal Of station +
from Mount Pleasant, where Its useful
ness was narrowly local. to 1888 u street.
and its erection almost to the dignity OF
an independent post office. with an elabo-
rate force of clerks and carriers and ia
ciities for the conduct or every char
acter OF postal business. Furthermore,
With its establishment came for the first
time 10 all outgoing mali frora the big
territory ii serves the advantage OF direct
dispatch 10 the raslroad trains. Direct
dispatch of the Incoming mails from the
trains to the station effects an immense
saving in the time OF delivery. and ena-
bles all persons served by the carriers
from station t to get their letters very
| much more quickly than under the old
plan, whereby they were first sent to the
main Office. and then rehandIed and sent
i TO the Mount Pleasant station for deliv-
cry. Post Office experts say Il was a
wonderful improvement in the mail serv-

Handling of u. s. Mail.

He also provided that the big official
mail consisting of government docu-
ment: and publications emanating from
the government printing Office should be
sent direct to the terminal station for
dispatch, instead of being sent first to
the main post Office to be rehandled and
transported across the city to the rail-
road station. thus relieving congestion
and saving a vast amount of work at the
main Office as well as insuring quicker
outward dispatch of the matter itself
In the special delivery service, before
Mr.. Merritt's time. it was almost i'm
possible to keep a check upon the special
delivery messengers intrusted with letters
whose quick delivery was of vital impor-
lance to their senders and perhaps to the
addresses. Mr.. Merritt has now estab-
lished a zone system for the entire city,
with the main Office as the center, the
zones being one mile apart. Under this
arrangement the superintendent can tell
almost to a minute the time it will take
a special delivery messenger to deliver a
given letter and the time when he should
return to the Office. Dement'S are i'm
posed for failure to effect deliveries and
return within scheduled time unless it
can be clearly shown that the delay was
caused L., circumstances over which the
messenger had 10 control. Its effect has
been to almost eliminate complaints OF
tardy delivery. and to give the people
confidence in the special delivery service
which did not exist before.

been extended to include stations A in

given. So that persons living within
the vicinity of those stations need not

BLIND STUDENTS TRACK MEET

LANSING, Mich, April 24.-The
most unique athletic meet ever staged
in Michigan will be held here on May
25, when the boys at the Michigan
school for the blind will engage in
their first annual track meet
Track teams of other institutions
for the blind in half dozen or more
states will compete the same day on
their home grounds. Each will tcle-
graph results to overlook, Pa, to
determine the blind athletic cham
pionship of the United States.
Coach Warren of the local school
has discovered that the high jump is
the most difficult feat for the blind
athlete. This he says, is due to the
inability of the jumper to judge the
height. The method adopted by tho
blind jumpers is to stand close to the
bar where they can get their beai
ing by feeling it.

THE AUTO RACES
ARE POSTPONED
WILL HAVE BIG MEETING the
THIRD WEEK ~ COMING
MAY,
CARS COULD NOT ARRIVE


The automobile races have been
postponed until the 18TH OF May. The
posWoncmont was due to the coudi-
tion of the tracks ON account of the
recent rains and to the fact that tho

II were impossible TO put the track In
PROPER condition after the auto races.
In order to avoid any conflict tho
rostponoment was made
II is believed the weather ana track
conditions win be- settled before tho
middle OF May and the people OF
Tulsa will have an opportunity OF
witnessing the finest sport in the line
Of auto racing which has ever been
offered In the state. The trophies
are the most elegant over offered IN
the state ana have been on exhibition
for the past three days.
One Of the most important factors

The factories have been out of com
mission for the past three weeks Tho
Management spared no pains or cX-
pensc to make good but could not

The delay will enable the promot-
ors to prepare much better pro

in every way and thus make mp fol
the temporary disappointment which
would be otherwise felt at The post

to hold meeting that will excel all

negotiations. The general proposal
he has in mind is that the contracting
nations shall never 20 TO war over
any dispute before there has been an
investigation in facts involved The
plan would not bind the nations to
abide by any decision Of the investi-
gators, but merely to effect n sus-
pension of judgment until impartial
persons have looked into the crcum-
stances at issue.
As originally submitted to the sen
ate foreign relat committee, the
draft of the plan, contained sen
tence bearing upon the suspension OF
warike preparations during the per
iod Of investigation, but this was
stricken from the copy distributed
formally to members of the dlplo-
matte corps today. The president =
explanation of the omission was that
it was deemed advisable to eliminate

be determined by negotiations by
each particular nation.

Legislature Will NOT
Abolish FARM Schools
HOUSE CUTS LEMON-kIEG BILL
AND CUTS THE APPROPRIA-
TION 100000.

OKLAHOMA CITY, April 2i-(Spe-
cial )-The house finally disposed OF
the school question this afternoon by
killing the Lemon-King bill which
provided for straight abolition by the
legislature of the Eastern Prepara-
tory school at ClaremOre and all but
one of the district agricultural
schools. This action was taken fol-
lowing the final passage of the Bond
substitute resolution which submits
the question of doing away with state
institutions to a vote of the people.
During consideration OF the univer-
sity appropriation bill the malnten-
ance appropriation asked for each
year was cut from $4,000 to $175,-
600, and the item OF $4,000 for uni
versity extension was eliminated.
