MAIL SUPPLY BOXES
SAVES CARRIERS WORK
Three City Carriers Will Fill Sacks
at Branch -Depots and Not at
II the Post Office

Some one has been moved to count
the steps and city blocks which some Of
our carriers have to travel in order to
reach the Post Office for second help
ing and it was found that one carrier
had to trudge or ride IL blocks back to
the Post Office, get his sack and should
ers freighted down and then hike or
ride all the way back again. causing
needless strain which has now been
remedied in the following manner. At
the corners of First St. and Litchfield
Ave-, eth st. and Campbell Ave-. and
9Th St. and Trott Avenue you will now
find large combination letter and par
eel boxes where the carriers will make
their route headquarters and where
they will get their loads of mail and
parcels. In the morning however they
will all go forth from the Post Office
with their first load as usual but need
not come back again for the second
which will be brot to the big combina-
ton box by a special carrier who will
make the rounds to all the boxes and
deliver the mail that accumu1ates in
the Post Office.

When the time arrived for both
teams to start practice 1t Is claimed
that over 100000 had been placed with
odds Of 10 to on Butte
With the championship at stake
and this amount of money up the
fans were in a frenzy.
You see the bugs out there con-
fidently thought that no pitcher in the
world was as good as McGinnis and
the same went for the fans from Mis-
souri, who would even bet their lives
that the Fox was invincible.
When the time came to start the
game, one face was missing, that was
McGinnis, he had not shown up at the
headquarters all day. but his friends
stated that Mac would be on hand as
he was stopping at some friends in
order to get good rest.
But ii was learned afterwards that
McGinnis did not want any of his
rivals pitching. as he had pitched
against Griffith before and knew what
1t meant to beat him. so he decided 10
take French leave. As soon as this
was found out. there were threats of
lynching. and they were known to
carry out their intentions. law or no

BRIDGEPORT MAY BE
CHICAGO SOX FARM

Bridgeport. Conn.,. Jan. 25.-Charles
A. Comiskey. owner of the Chicago
Americans, at last has a chance to
make good on his often expressed will
ingness to do anything he could to
help Big Ed Walsh. whose pitching
helped TO make a fortune for Comis-
key.
Walsh has been signed as manager
of the Bridgeport team of the Eastern
League. and he is hoping that Co,'iis-
key will make Bridgeport a farm for
the Chicago White Sox. Kid Gleason,
the White Sox manager. is also firm
friend OF Walsh and may be expected
to come to his assistance.
Walsh spent his entire big league
career as a member of the White SoN.
In his palmy period he thought moth
ing of pitching every other day in
order to keep the club in the race.
lComiskey has not forgotten this and
as he knows Walsh is q good judge
Of young players he will probably be
glad to send his youngsters &c this
city.
II was snnounsed last week that
Walsh would be the next manager Of
the Bridgeport club. so the actual
signing Of the papers was no surprise.

NO GRADUATE
COACH SYSTEM
FOR THE NAVY

Annapolis, Jan. 25.-With every
branch Of sport at the Naval Acad-
emy now coached by a professional,
that Institution is not likely to Join
any movement to return to graduate
coaching. At one time there were
many officers who favored all sports
being handled by graduates of the
Academy. but the present system h. s
not developed any abuses and is en-
urely satisfactory. 1t is specially
adapted to the Naval Academy. be-
cause it would not be possible for any
graduate coach to continue here more
than two or three years. and coach
ing methods would be subject to con-
tinual changes.
Sports arc handled by .pecially en-
gaSed COACHES or by the regularly
appointed instructors Of the depart
ment of physical training. There are
four professional coaches employed
by the Navy Athletic Association who
have no official connection with the
Naval Academy. These handle most
