The Patrons of Husbandry of the
State of Washington have prepared
the following statement Of parcels
post and express statistics, showing
the exorbitant charges in the United
States as compared to other coun-
tries:
Az there are at present at least one
third more postoffices than express
offices In the United States, those
sending packages will have a more
complete service under the parcels
post. The farmer can send his pro-
ducts in small quantities direct to the
customer at small cost and better
profit.
"The storekeeIer will be enabled
to replenish his stock more frequent
ly and quickly, not having to meet eX-
pensive express charges. In conse-
quence he will not be obliged to keep
on hand large quantities of goods sell
dom called for.
AbOlitiOnists Are Traitors.
"In fact, parcels post presents so
many advantages that in countries
where 1t has become an established
tion given that anyone who would ad-
vocate its abolition would almost be
regarded as a traitor.
"EX- X-Postmaster General John
Wanamaker said: The insuperable
obstacles to a parcels post in the
United States are, the Adams Express
company, the American Express COM
pany and the Southern Express COM
pany. The United States postoffice
department is about 80 years behind
the other countries of the world in

Accident Bulletin No. II, a brief
summary Of which has just been is

mission shows for the months of July.
August and September, that 1.053 were
killed and 1886 injured among pas.
sengers and employees on the railways
of the United States. This is an in
crease over those reported in the
three months last preceding. These
fguresare doubtless in a large measure
a reflection of the heavy traffic done
by the principal railroads of the coun.
try during the busiest summer months.
The number of passengers killed in
train accidents, forty-three, is larger

quarters, yet 1t Is far below the quar-
ter which included the same three
months Of 1904. when 22S passengers

dents in the present report are a col

Trappers and hunters are awaiting

Game Warden Johnson on the charge
Of violating the statute in regard to
the killing of muslrats otherwise

The present law forbids the killing
of muskrats save with clubs and
they must not be speared or their

strued to mean that even trappers
owning marshes cannot attempt to
extermnate the rats except through
the above means.
1t is a well known fact that one fe-
male rat raises from ten to twenty off
spring each year. AT this rapid rate
of multiplication, unless some active
means are taken, the rats, it is said,

RELATIVES OF M. ROBERMAN
CONTEST FOR ESTATE.

Order Of Adoption Was Issued it

Child Had Not Been Aban-

Madison, Feb. S

Madison, Feb. S.
Judge Zimmerman of the county
court yesterday set aside in the Mey-
er Roberman estate the final judg
ment so far as it relates to the proof
of heirship and the distribution of the
estate. He provided for a hearing
and trial on April IL at 10 o'clock in
the morning. Roberman formerly
conducted a fruit store ON King
street. A year ago last summer his
wife went to Chicago aud committed
suicide by taking poison, Immedi-
ately upon the receipt OF the news
Roberman left for Chicago. Being
Respondent over the tragic event he
shot himself dead. Laura Roberman,
an adopted daughter, survived. She
was the sole beneficiary of the estate,
there being no WILL The property is
valued at from $4,000 to $4,000.
Francis Barker ct al of Chicago
contested FOR the estate alleging that
the adoption of Laura Roberman was
invalid The order of adoption was
issued by former Judge j. H. Carpen-
ter and the contestants claim that
under the laws then existing no child
could be legally adopted unless It
has been abandoned. They allege
that it was shown in court at that
time that the heir was not abandoned
and upon this they base their ground
for contesting for the estate and the
validity of the adoption. Roberman
was a brother of Mrs. Barker.
Mrs. Barker has retained Attorney
G. F. Spensley of this city and Attor
ney B. S. King of Chicago. Smith

Miss Lenox resumed the combing
Of her hair, ami out of the vast vacuum
came the following
1T is sad to contemplate
And it's sadder to relate
(striving to unravel some knotty prob
lem in her hair,)
How this good old world forgets you
when you're broke"
Then. completing the arrangement
of her hair, she muttered to herself
the chorus
And the world goes on just the same,
And the problem is to find out who Is
to blame
For there amt much sense in whining
When you're forced to give up dining,
And the world goes on"
Then came the last stanza, scrubbed
on an envelope from her mornings
mail. and the telephone bell rang
again.
There's a boy here from music
