The purpose of the Postal Progress
League is a most laudable one if the fol-
lowing brief statement covers the points 4;
Its purpose is to procure Legislation for a
complete parcel postal service within the
country, and the promotion of the par
cells post treaties with foreign nations.
The express companies already complain
that the Government encroaches upon
their field, but their own service is not
universal and their charges are little short
Of highway robbery. The League be-
lieves that the distinction between third
and fourth class mail should be abolished
and packages should BIO carr led by the
postal service at charges ranging from one
cent for three ounces and five cents tor one
pound to 25 cents for IL pounds, service
being extended to all offices, and free de-
livery being supplied wherever there is a
wagon delivery.

Marvellous Hindoo Mystery.
"Zallar. the Hindoo Mystery is one
of the best shows ever seen at Mar
shalltown carnival, and the exhibition
lis worth much more than the price OF
admission. Professor Franks mystify-
ing feats Of legerdemain are of high
err class than is usually seen at a minor
admission price. He brings girl to
the front of the stage, throws cloth
over her head and, presto. the girl is
gone and the professor holds nothing
but a grinning skull in his hands. He
produces a living white rabbit from an
empty bowl; by some mysterious
hocus- pocus the rabbit divides and be-
comes two rabbits. He presses the two
together and the twain become one
flesh under the eyes of the mystif1ed
onlookers. One of his best and most
mystifying tricks Is done With water
and a common tin pail The mystery
is where does the water go. Zallah is
a show to be recommended as intensely
interesting, entirely moral and worthy
of patronage.
Wild Animals Perform.
Another midway show that returns
full value for the admission price is Big
Otto's exhibition of trained animals.
Two 16-months -old lions, two black
bears and two dogs constitute the
troupe of performers under Captain
GoIdsmith a noted animal trainer. The
animals are forest bred and savage,

consists in presenting woman, shown
to the audience to be flesh and blood,
