P The First Rural Mail. When Hugh Miller began carrying a rural route.mail out of Clark9vilie, Ark., on Oct. 18, 1896, no other community in the Unite.i States is said to have had a like service. For that reason aliller is credited with being the first rural route mail carrier. In that day the United States Postoffice Department was dubious as to the outcome of this experiment. The j postmaster at Clarksville was author- 1 ized to appoint a carrier. He named j Miller then 20 ^years old. No effort 1 was made by the Government to lay j out a route. Miller wandered into the country, ! choosing his own route and zigzagged ' his way from farm to farm as best he | could. His] patrons looked at him ! blankly when he drove up and said he i had mail for tnem. They were unable to understand I why he concerned himself in drawing , f m o rtc. I LOeir LUttli 11UJLU IlUC puowmvuou Viuauville. Especially were they puzzled that he should do them the extraordinary kindness of bringing it many miles into the country. Miller told them that "Uncle Sain" was doing this for them and asked that they erect mail boxes, that he might save time in making his deliveries. On his next trip he found gourds, sections of stove pipe, cigar boxes and ! pasteboard shoe boxes nailed on posts or hung in trees. Not until 1900 did the Postoffice Department pay attention to mapping out a route. At that time a special agent, W. D Gilbert, went there and established a route. Miller began with a salary of ?2S8 a year. He was advanced to ?300 at the ; end of eight months and now receives J ?1,000 a year for covering a twentyfour mile route six days a week, ex- j elusive of holidays. Miller is 3C years old.
