TONY DAHLEN SENDS FIRST
PARCELS POST PACKAGE.
Package Cost But One-Third As
Much as Under the Old Rate
Of Postage.

Tony Dahlen sent the first par
GELS post package to be mailed a,
the local post office. It weighed
pounds and ounces and went tc
Salt Lake City. 1t cost Is cents
to send it. Under the old mer-
chandise rate the cost would have
been 54 cents.
Mrs. Carl lines sent the second
parcels package to Albany, Nebr.,
the postage being IA cents as
against "a cents under the old rate.
In connection with the operation
OF the new law are a few facts
which the public should know. The
one likely to cause the most annoy
ance is that ordinary postage stamps
can not be used to send fourth class
hitter after January 1. Should an
article Of this class be found in
the mails with postage stamps at
tached. It viii be treated az un-
paid or insufficiently paid, and
the addressee will be required to
forward the right amount Of parcels
post stamps before the package
will be forwarded.
Owing to the fact that rates vary
according to distance it will be i'm
possible for patrons to estimate the
amount OF postage required. AS
every package is rated according to
its weight and the distance It must
travel, the estimating Of postage be-
comes quite complicated Parcels
can not be registed but may be in
sured for their actual value up to
$50 for 10 cents.

PARCELS POST IS
; NOW IN FORCE
PACKAGES MAY BE SENT BY
MAIL ANYWHERE IN
THE u. S. A.
RATE LESS THAN EXPRESS
Greatest Improvement in Postal Service
since the Inauguration Of rural free
delivery system.

On Wednesday, January /, wen,
into effect in all U. s. postoffices
the new parcels post law. considered
the greatest forward movement in
postal service since the Inauguration
of the rural free delivery system 15
years ago. Under the provisions OF
this act parcels Weighing not more
than eleven pounds, and being 70
inches or less in length and girth
combined may be sent through the
mail.
The post office department has
printed new parcels post stamps, ant
these must be used. Parcels stamped
with ordinary stamps will be held
for postage the Same as If they
had no postage whatever on them.
Another thing prospective patrons OF
the parcels post must remember is
that the sender must put his or her
return card on the package sent,
else it cannot go through the mails.
Packages for local delivery can be
sent at the following rates, or these
same rates will carry the bundles
anywhere within a certain radius:
1 pound. SC; pounds, &c; 8
pounds. 7c; pounds. Sc; pounds,
&C; pounds, 1Oc; pounds, lie;
8 pounds. 12c; 9 pounds, 13c; 10
pounds. lac; IL pounds, 15c.
The Importance of the new Ser
vice can scarcely be adequately es-
timated at the present time. 1t
contemplates the transportation and
delivery by the postal service of the
United states Of parcels containing
matter of the fourth class, from any
point reached by the present postal
service to any other point reached
by the system. The parcels post
service of the government extends
far beyond the limited sphere of
the various express companies, over
more than a million miles of rural
routes, 435,000 miles Of rail, boat
and star routes, embracing about
$4,000 post offices and 2S5,00O en-
ployes connected with the postal
service. The rates of transportation
are a great deal cheaper than the
rates Of the express
and means and enormous
saving to shippers, aside from the
greater facilities offered to them.
Under the new law everything will
be mailable that Is mailable now as
fourthclass matter, with the addition
Of thousands of articles Of a perish
able nature, ETC., which heretofore
were not mailable at all No liquor
Of an alcoholic nature, poisons ex-

Important If True.

David Burrell gives an account
of a hunting experience Christmas
day which if true, is important in
sofar as it shows his wonderful
prowess. Dave has a couple of
'hown dawgs" which bay at the
moon all night and sleep all day,
and his leisure hours are spent in
shooting jack rabbits to satisfy
their ravenous appetites. Christmas
evening, filled with the spirit of
the season, Dave shouldered his
gun and started to get Christmas
dinner. The hounds accompanied
him and at the first scent began to
bawl and frightened all the rabbits
out of the township. so that the
hunt was spoiled. Giving up in
dispair Burrell started for home.
About this time the pups began
baying furiously and Burrell sus-
pected they had rounded up
cayotte. He set off at fast gallop.
and stopped behind a small hill long
enough to get his apparatus to work
ing normally. Then smoking up the
hill, he thought he saw the game,
but the dogs were circulating around
so rapidly that he could not shoot
Bending as low as possible and
keeping a tall sage brush between
him and the cayotte, he crept along
until he thought there was danger
of frightening the animal away.
Then Strengthening up he ran as
fast as possible to close gunshot,
that the dogs would keep
the animals attention. When a few
yards away the dogs got out Of
range and Burrell gave Mr.. Cayotte
both barrels, fatally woundfng him.
Congratulating himself upon his
great stunt In sneaking up on a|
cayotte unawares, he srtode forth
and was somewhat taken back to
find that the cayotte was firmly
held in a trap. Trap and cayotte
we're both taken home, and the trap
p still In evidence to prove the
truth Of the story.

SOME BUSINESS MAN
While undergoing an operation
for goiter, Marcus I. SlOman, in
surance solicitor, 1887 Grand
blvd, managed to sell $1,000
worth of life insurance.
Sloman was taken to the Mich
ael Reese Hospital for the opera
ton. DR.. Daniel W.. Eisendrath
performed the operation. He told
SIoman that he could not risk adj
ministration of an anesthetic.
Sloman told him to 60 ahead.
In the middle of the operation
Eisendrath wanted to test the
condition of the patients throat.
Try to speak a little, Mr.. SlQ-
man." he said.
Doctor" said Sloman, ''have
you ever thought of getting an
insurance policy to protect your
possible widow and fatherless
children? Have you ever thought
how serious your death would be
to them? Have you ever thought
how in the midst of life we are in
death? Have you ever"
That's enough" said the doc
tor, chuckling. I'll take $4,000
worth of insurance. You mustn't
talk any more"
The operation was finished.
Sloman was lifted from the oper-
ating table to be taken to his
room. While he was being car
ried out he managed to sell a

WEST VIRGINIA ABOUT DUE FOR
RECONSTRUCTION
BY ellison Gardner.

BY OllSoh Gardner.
Washington, June 19.-West Vir-
ginia has been found guilty. The
Senate Committee investigating in
dustrial peonage has found it and
found also that citizens of West Yir-
ginia have been deprived of life, lib
erty and property without due pro-
cess of law. The fourteenth amend
ment to the federal constitution says:
mo state shall make or enforce
any law which shall abridge the
privileges OF immunities of citizens
Of the United States, or shall any
state deprive any person of life, lib
erty or property without due process
of law, nor deny to any person with
in it's jurisdiction the equal protec-
ton of the laws" D."
When q state violated this pro-
vision Of the federal constitution by
arbitrarily substituting military
courts for civil courts, military trials
for jury trials, execution by militia
for legal execution, arrest by mill
tary warrant for indictment by grand
juFies and court warrants, then it is
the duty of the federal government
to introduce the strong arm of the
federal authority and to reconstruct
that state. A recommendation that
steps be taken to this end will be
made by the committee which is now
ready to formulate it's report.
