and Political Customs of New Zealand"

natural resources of the soil are not mo
nopolized. Mr. Hastlo Is an ardent advocate of
woman suffrage, and he spoke highly of

erted a refining Influence on the home
and public life there.

favors equal suffrage; he believes his
mother, his wife and other good women
equally competent, and as much or more
entitled to a voice in tho public welfare
as the masses of untrained men voters

selves at tho polls. H. F. Bennett and

There Is a possibility that Crelghton
university will erect a large building In
tho business district ot Omaha within

proposed plan has been discussed by tho

QUEER COLLECTION ON HAND
Some Pncknitea Contain Motley
Assortment of Arilclrn Lark
Inn; Only Ktldrncn of
Ownership.
With the exception of a alnglo depart
ment, the .'rush ot Christmas business Is
over, and that department Is tho "nlxy."
Just why It la so called !n tho toplo ot
much conjecture about tho postoffice, but
nlxy it Is and nlxy It nccm? likely to to
main until somo more descriptlvo and
convenient word Is coined.
In tho nlxy department, whero articles
found looso In tho malls without any
mark to indicate tho sender or nddrosseo
nro sent, along with those Improperly ad
dressed, thousands of articles havo accu
mulated during the last two weeks. Tho
normal force has been Increased to seven
men to handlo tho work, nnd two more
clerks will bo added to the force Monday.
Somo 2,910 pcoplo who should havo re
ceived Christinas greeting on postcard1
decorated with tinsel will not get them
this year. Such matter cannot bo sent
through tho malls unless It Is enclosed
In an evclope. Tho accumulation ot 2.910
of theso cards tills season shows tho gen
eral disregard or lack of Information on
tho ruling.
SlrnnRC Assortment.
Among tho queer articles and combina
tions of articles found In the nlxy depart
ment are a Chrlstmac tree, a corner
cleaner, doll shoes and clothing, toy tin
dishes, mop sticks, silk hose, muskrat
hides, skunk hides, a dressed chicken, egg
separator, shoes from Denmark, tobacco
pouch, lady's garter, Jewelry of all de
scriptions, baby ribbon, pillow tops and
embroidery Bilk, a Lincoln highway
marker, solder, screws, preserves, safety
razors, thimbles, money, photographs,
pocket knives and face powder. This
comprises only a portion of tho articles
which are being listed and marked and
put away until tho senders or addressees
are located.
Ono very curious package, from which
the address had boen lost was an nlmum-
lnus stow kettle, a box pt candy, a doll,
baby shoes, silk hoso, children's stock
ings and a towel. The packago evidently
contained presents for several members
of a famlljvwho may have expected, but
havo not yet received their Christmas
presents.
FliidlnK the Owners.
Tiio method of locating tho owners of
theso artlcloa Is little leas interesting
than the articles themselves. On regular
dates each nlxy station throughout tho
country makes a list of theso articles
received by them and the list Is published
and sent to all of tho postal Inspectors,
Complaints of articles lest In tho mall
are usually mado to tho postmaster. Tho
postmaster who receives such a com'
plaint reports it to his district inspector,
who has ail of these lists, and he refers
to the list of tho territory through
which tho article would havo traveled In
going to its destination. Most of tho arti
cles aro thus returned either to tho sender
or to the addresses. That Is all except
drossod chickens, which will not keep
for an indefinite tlmo, and skunk hides,
which are quite beyond tho good man
ners ot the clerks of the nixy department
Theso generally go' tho routo of tho big
furnace In tho federal building, the su
perintendent of tho nlxy generally di
recting the incineration in person.
Namea Found Inside.
On the other hand, the opening of theso
packages often rovoaU tho name of tho
sender or addressee, and in such cases
the articles are at once forwarded to tho
person who Bent or was to receive tho
article. Thousands of theso packagoa aru
dollvered overy year without being placed
on the Inspector's lists at all. On the
other hand, the valuo of somo packages
Is so trivial that the senders do not com
plain, and tho department, though'
thorough In Its efforts, never is able to
locato tho rightful owner
