Parcel Post ard Private Exbress.

Postmaster General Burles3n rather
startled Washington when he announc-
ed that the first year Of the parcel post
system viii yield new profit Of
so, 600 900, For a quarter Of q century
the railroads and express companies
have been successfully making the
country believe that the parcel post
would be burden upon the govern
.ment. and would run the postofcces so
far behind that the government might
go INTO bankruptcy However, the
most ardent supporters Of the parcel
post system did not contemplate any
thing more than half as great as the
first year of the system viii show.
The result is going to be that parcel
post rates viii be siashed in order that
the public may feel the benefits from
the new system without piling up mil
lions for the postoffce department.
The express companies have been in
sisting, with their most courageous
smiles, that they have not been serius-
ly injured by the parcel post which
have taken ever transportation of the
small packages, which they say has
not been their greatest source Of pro-
/ fit. However. there seems to be plen-
t. of reason to assume that the ex-
press companies have not commenced
with their troubles. The Interstate
Commerce Commission has directed an
entire readjustment Of rates, which
Will compel the express companies to
carry the larger packages out of which
they are securing their present great
profits, at which are going to make tif-
ty percent dividends to stockholders Of
express companies a thing Of the past.

NEWS FROM WASHINGTON, D. c.
The Case Of Mr.. McCombs.

Even Cupid seems to be working t.r
President Wilson. for through Miss
Dorothy Williams, former fancee Of
Major Archibald Butt, there has come
an end to the trouble with William +.
McCombs. Two young people were
married in London last week, and fol-
lowing the ceremony it was announced
that Mr.. McCombs would accept the
position OF Ambassador to France. 1t
is assumed among those VINO know
that McCombs as chairman of the pre-
convention campaign of Mr.. Wilson
and as Chairman of the National com
mittee., was one of the greatest aides
President Wilson had in the country.
-Four years ago when Frank H. Hitch
cock landed his candidate, William Ho-
ward Taft there was good deal Of
feeling because Mr.. Taft refused to
honor the promises of the campaign
manager, in reference TO patronage.
Although Hitchcock went into the Ca
binet. yet it is known that he was IN
the sulks because his pledges had been
repudiated by his chief 1t IS supposed
that McConbs found himself IN exaet-
ly the same position. and wren he was
severely turned down Immediately af-
ter President Wilson went into power.
there was nothing left to be done ex.
eept for him to leave the country until
the storm of protest of the disappont.
ed ones blew over. 1t was in March
that Mr. McCombs was first offered
the position Of Ambassador to France.
which he decline1. McCombs related a
storyto some newspaper men to the eff
feet that years ago he had been told
by fortune teller that he would some
day be Ambassador to France. In re.
counting the incident he said that he
had twice finally declined the post. and
that in this instance the fortune teller
had failed in correct calculations. 1t
was about at this time that Miss Will
lams came upon the scene, and when
Cupid finally completed his task and
brought the young couple to the al
tar. the patience of President Wilson
was rewarded. There followed the &C.
ceptauce of the Paris post by Ne.
Combs. Mark Hanna was the last Of
the chairmen of political Committees
whose promises all seemedto have been
o. X d. at the White House.

~ A PHYSICIAN.

Prof. NJ. ]. Rosenau, OF Harvard. re.
Gently announced that he had appar-
emily succeeded in transmitting infant
paralysis from monkey to monkey
through the agency OF the biting
stable-hy.
Confirmation OF Rosenau's work has
just appeared in an article by Ander-

report that they were able to transmit
the infection to a fresh monkey with
the emulsion OF the cord OF one or the
animals infected by the flies.
One point Of especial interest In the
results reported by Anderson and
Frost Is the period elapsing between
the first exposure of flies to the infect
ed animal and the development OF the
disease in healthy animals. the short
est period being seven days, which is
shorter than that found by Resenau
