John Garbers, of Chapman, is
perfecting a mail crane which it is
thought will prove to be very super
ior to any crane now in use. Gar
bers was with Rasniussen, a mem
ber of Co. M of the Second Nebraska
at the time RaHinuHseu was killed
by a mail crane and the accident
set him to thinking if it wasn't
possible to invent a less dangerous
device The new cane drops two
feet away from the car as soon as
the mail bag it is to deliver to the
car has been received. It will alho
hold the mail bay to be delivered to
the station which will avoid its
being thrown haphazard to the
Hymen's Knot.
