The Aero Mall station reports e.
ceptionally good weather for wire
less work. Tho station Is located in
the City Park and is 'making goofl In
the transcontinental string of sta
tions. Tho mall planes are making
regular trrps, one plane a day each
way. The amount of mall to be
carried Is much greater than the
capacity of the planes and a numbei
of new machines have been ordered
which will have a much larger ca
pacity. One of these planes recently
made a trial trip over tho division
carrying almost a thousand pounds
of letters. Tho Oinaha-Cheyonne
division has made a record as tho
choapost of all the divisions in actual
operating expense. The cost was 70c

appropriations were rnador by con
gress to carry tho present service

t Tp G. Urban: Y'ou have gone. A
few' days before you loft wo heard '
you were goinn. There was no
farewoll reception or party for
you. You did not take time to
say good-bye. Your affairs were In
disorder but your left without taking
time to put them to rights. All over
tho city men and women are marking
your.1 name off their books and nutting
the accounts you contracted, In the
loss column. You camo to our office
and asked us to lolp you get started
In tho amusement lino. You were n
young man and lookod like you only
needed a chance la order to make
good. We trusted you. You got all
you could from us and then loft with
out paying us what you owed. Wo
paid tho men who sold us tho miner.
Wo paid tho printers. Wo spent our!
own time In talking over the jobs and
seeing tlmt they were woll and fairly
done. You. took the fruits of all of
our labor and skinned out. You spent
all you could get hold of. Wo needed
our pay for this work. Tho carpenters
who remodoled tho hall needed their
money. Tho landlady whero you
stayed needed her monoy. nut you
have done worse than beat us out of
money. Each of us have a little loss
faith In our followinon. Wo will be
a little less willing to holp a young
man get a start. Wo will suspicion
tho stranger. You have taken away
something which you cannot give
back and which will react on your
fellowmen. Men like you tend to causo
humanity to sour. You will hasten
tho day when brotherhood will !3
strangled nnd mankind will revert to
tho barbaric. Credit and faith in ono
another are tho bulwarks of our pres
ent civilization and when these an
gone all Is gone. But you have not
done that. Your act Is despised by
all upstanding men and women and
while the thoughtless will smllo and
comment on your act as ono of clever
ness, tho thinking will see In it tho
outcropping of your baser nature. We
have scratched your name from our
books. Wo will coasp to romember
your crime and only hope that you
will catch yourself before It is too
late for you to make a man of your
self. . Tho Editor.
