Our Re.ourcefuI Postal Service.

krUm the New London Telegraph.
A post card came into the local post
Office yesterday with simply this address:
ITO the man whose picture is on the
other side" The card on the reverse side
contained the pictures of DIR. Joseph NJ.
Ganey and DIR. Gordon l. Hislop of this
city. The card was turned over to DR..
Ganey.
1t was sent by L. B. Meimeyer, a fruit
grower of Los Angeles. The picture was
taken by him on board the Prince Helm
rich en- route from Alexandria to Naples
just as the steamer was getting into
Naples. Apparently he had forgotten the
names of his fellow passengers, but did
remember that they were from this city.
so he sent the card on with the odd direc-
tiOns. The card was mailed from Naples
In this connection probably the most pc
culiar address was that OF a letter coming
York from city in Germany. II was ad-
dressed: Third House in America" and
bore the name Of a German. The New
York pOstoffice force was nonplussed.
Finally one of the men got an idea. He
went to the pier of a line in Hoboken
where he thought the man to whom the
letter belonged might have landed with
others from Germany. Then he walked
up three houses and went in. Su e
enough, that was the destination of the
letter. The addressee didn't know
how to tell his friend in far-off Ger
many how to direct the letter. but
just told him the house was the third in
America. and that was the way the latter
come to the right man.

Winged Wonders.

In BorneO winged creatures are encoUn-
tered where one would least expect them.
Flying fish, the size Of herrings, are
found in all the waters, and there is the
flying fox. the well-known fruit-eating
bat, which the Malays call "kruang.
They may be seen almost any evening
winging their steady flight often at d
great elevation well out of range OF a
shotgun. The flying squirrel. as evening
twilight Games, is also seen. They glide
down from one lofty tree TO the base of
another, up which they scramble to the
level they started from. Wide expansions
of skin between the fore and hind limbs
act in parachute fashion and sustain them
in their glide. They are of some size, but
are quite harmless. The flying lizard is
seen in the heat of the day in the jungle,
gliding down with a flash in much the
same manner as the squirrel But he IS
much smaller. and it requires a quick eye
TO detect him. The natives kill him with
a clay ball shot from their Ssowpipes.

He glanced at his balance on the oppo-

He closed the book and pushed it back
into its pigeOn-hole, turning abruptly to

his jeweled watch again.
He unsnapped it from its chain and laid
1t on the desk before him, idly running
his finger over the rich monogramed "P.

buoyant smile sprang to his lips. He
pressed button on his desk and sat rub
bing the watch-case until his servant ap-
peared.

known facts as obtained from this war
for the more recent one in the Balkans
is negligible because there was no orxan-
ized air servtce-predicts a much less i'm
portant role for both airships and aero
planes than has generally been foretold.
The Turks had no air service. That of
the Italians was systematic and well or
ganized, aeroplanes. dirigibles. , and cap
tive kite balloons being used regularly.
They proved of great use in reconnois-
sance, enabling artillery to find targets
and regulate their fire and the STAN to
correct their maps. But the bomb-drop-
ping did no material damage whatever
effect it had on the enemy being purely
moral. Which leads the Scientific Amer
ican to say:
In certain limited cases as regards
inanimate objects OF attack aeroplanes
might be effective. as, for instance, for
the destruction Of railway lines, since
sowing a number Of bombs. while the
machine kept above a length of perma
nent way. would not be very difficult. As
regards the destruction of fixed points,
the aeroplane is practically useless. un-
less large numbers are used, each carry
ing one or two heavy bombs and com
ing comparatively close to the ground.
Even sc, the difficulties in obtaining ac-
curscy OF aim from the swiftly moving
machines are very great.
Resides this the Italians foun5 that
even in face Of the indifferent marks
manship Of the Turks ii was impera-
tive to keep an altitude of 4JOO feet in
order to remain out Of range Of rife fire.
There is no cover in midair. and n the
bomb-dropper should descend low enough
TO take any kind of aim the attacking
aerOplanes would have TO run the zaunt-
let Of fusillade so heavy and sustained
as TO render sighting difficult and the
chances of escape from destruction yery
slight. Ranging on aeroplanes has been
shown to be extremely uncertain on ac-
count OF their speed. and for other rea-
sons, but the sustained fire Of many rifles
within, say l.s0O feet. and necessitatinc
no special adjustment of sights would
eliminate the process Of range taking.
'On the whole the damage likely to
be done by aeroplanes dropping bombs
Is neglibile, the moral effect on good
troops most uncertain and not worth the
expenditure OF gallant lives and machines
which are Of much more value for pur-
poses of reconnaissance"

that he left his apartment and took a
stroll along Fifth Avenue
At little before o'clock he found
himself farther down town than his
usual walk took him. Entering drug
store he picked up a telephone book
and looked UP the address of Isaac
Silverstein, pawn broker, on Sixth Ave
nue..
Jotting down the number on the back
of a calling card he left the store and
walked quickly to the police station
nearest to Silverstein's address. He en-
tered the building at a brisk pace, and,
looking about him excitedly. as though
he had just lost something, asked the
dOorkeeper in a voice which expressed
suppressed excitement and anger, Where
can I make a complaint about theft?'
ITO the desk sergeant, SIR answered
the officer, impressed by the gentleman's
bearing.
He led Mr.. Van Der Pool through
corridor and brought him face to face
with a very fat and sleepy official squat
ting above his desk like huge toad.
This gentleman has had something
stolen?" explained the officer.
Der Pool, in a hurried, excited tone, as
though he were quite upset. out Of
charity I befriended a man who was sent
to me by an acquaintance. / did the
best 1 could with him, had him up to
my rooms several times, and allowed him
to read alone in my library. l missed
several little things from time to time
and finally traced them TO this man. He
confessed that he had stolen the articles
and pawned them. He pledged the val
uables with different pawnbrokers under
different names"
81 see" said the sergeant. How long
ago was this? You should have had him
arrested at the time. It's a little late
now"
NO. Not at all too late. This was sew
eraI years ago. But the man came TO
my house again today. and when he said
he had reformed and turned over a new
leaf l relieved him. My watch, one |
value very much as a keepsake, was
lying on my desk during the visit; my
servant saw it there and he can corrob-
crate my statement"
That's entirely unnecessary. Just
make your complaint and we will look
for the stolen articles IL you desire"
said the officer quite courteous, evidently
anxious TO help out the unfortunate
gentleman.
THAT is exactly what I WISH an
swered Mr.. Van Der Pool promptly.
After this man left Immediately missed
my watch. but believing it was only mis-
laid, l put of doing anything about il
for several hours, until my servant,
whom | can trust absolutely, said he
had seen the watch there before the man
left"
Have you any idea what he has done
with the stolen property Do you know
what his name is, or where he lives"
asked the officer
No. He was known under different
names. He pawned several things under
the name Of Arnold and others under
the name OF Brown. Henry Brown, l be-
lieve.

why only last week, SIR" said Bilkins,
glibly, my brother needed his saw (he's
only a carpenter, sir), and he has sunk SO
low that he even pledged his tools; and
when he came to pay the interest and
the other outrageous charges that had
piled up on this saw of his, sir, he found
he could go out and buy a new one for
less"
"And did he?' asked the gentleman OF
leisure. with an appreciative smile.
Indeed not. AS soon as the Jew saw
he had money he made him redeem the
pledge. What money my brother has, sir,
has gone to that scoundrel"
Good. Do you know where this pawn
shop is?"
quite far down on Sixth Avenue, sir.
The brokers' name Is Isaac Silverstein,'
answered the servant.
Have you ever been in his place."
"Oh, no, SIR" exclaimed BiIkins quickly.

Bilkins took the watch with a bow,
remarking, you will see for yourself
that he charges more interest than the
law allows and swindles every one who
goes to him.
We'll. I guess my timepiece will be
safe" said Mr.. Van Der Pool casually.

Mr. Van Der Pool turned to his desk
and fingered a small stack Of correspond

When Mr. Van Der Pool was alone he
lighted a cigar and sat back. day

Then he took a volume from his desk
and fingered its vellum cover lovingly.
He opened the book to a mark in ii
