When Mr. Beach took charge of the post office he had a hard task before him, but he did not rest until he had become thoroughly familiar with his duties and thoroughly expert in doing them. The result of his efforts has been a postoffice second to none in the country in promptness, accuracy, re- gard for public convenience, and prog- ress in postal matters. He has had the hearty approval of the citizens, regard- less of politics, and has earned that approval by his attention to business, his regard for the public interest and his unfailing courtesy to all who have had business with him. If we are not mistaken he is the youngest of the postmasters of New Haven for a long time, but he has no inferior rank in the worthy line.” : : ’*86—Mrs. Elizabeth Cheney Cowles, wife of Alfred Cowles of Chicago, died at Colorado Springs on Thursday, April 7th.
