NEW NEWS OF YESTERDAY

By E j. Edwards

during one OF my visits 10 Great
Britain some years ago / met John
Henniker Heaton. who next TO Roland
Hin did more for the postal system OF
Great Britain than any other one
man. l had already been In CORE
spondence with Mr. Heaton as long
ago as the time when | was postmas-
ter Of New York. and later when 1
was postmastergeneral at Washing
ton. Mr.. Heaton was a strong advo-
cate OF penny ocean postage. a policy
In which l thoroughly agreed with
him"
Former Postmaster-General Thomas
L. James began. with this reference 20
Mr.. Heaton. an ancedote telling OF his
experience with Lord Randolph
Churchill shortly after the marriage
OF Lord Randolph TO Jennie Jerome.
OF New York.
Mr.. Heaton told me-" said Gen.
eral James. that Lord Randolph
Churchill had an extraordinary gift
for collecting facts. not only by read
ing books. but by keeping himself in
touch with people who would give
him Information. and furthermore.
that he was able by unusual and real
ly intuitive processes OF mind thor
Justly " hAktNl anu dESlmlldie INTO
orderly and systematic relation
great many facts which he obtained
by asking questions OF those who
would give him accurate answers
Il soon discovered that Lord Ran
dolph was not asking me these ques-
lions eithe- as a matter OF courtesy
or out OF idle curiosity. lie was get
ting information He was with me. /
should say. about two hourse. and /
am certain that In all my experience
as postmaster OF New York or as
postmaster general | was never sub
jected TO such persistent and search
ing inquiry all Of II IN the direction
OF Information or facts. as I was by
Lord Randolph.
When the time came 20 part he
was very cordial in his thanks lie
said that ! had given him the oppor-
unity 20 become thorouchly informed
respecting the American postal u.s.
TEN and that he had obtained some
good Ideas. which he was sure would
be put 10 use in the postofrice system
OF Great Britain.
~ few days later met Nj. Jerome
and I said 20 him that his sonin-law
