stage goes out every week day morn
ing at 8 o'clock, returning from
Lefor in the afternoon. AS the dis
lance is only IL miles, it is expected
that after the roads get good, the
driver will have authority to leave
Gladstone at 10 o'clock, thus enabl-
ing Postmaster Jacob Krier to dis
patch No. 8's mail for the south each
morning, and in the evening he will
be able, to dispatch the incoming
Lefor mail for No. z. Thus people
living at Dickinson will be able to
send letters to Lefor and get a reply
