Everything Goes by Parcel Post.

Postoffices nowadays look more
like a freight depot than a postal sta
ton, as all kinds of merchandise is
now being carried by the parcel post
where heretofore it was very expen-
sive to ship by freight or express
The Twin Falls Times tells of a ship
ment that went through there the
other day as follows:
The mail car coming from Mini
doka was nearly swamped for several
nights of last week. Heavy shipments
of salt. -four, sugar and other mer-
chandise were going from Elko, Ne
vada. to the Diamond C stock COM
pany. at Rattlesnake. Idaho. The
merchandise was unloaded at the 10.
cal station and transferred to Roger

destination by stage. There wer,
several tons in the different consign
ments. The postage was s1.0S pc

EATS go GRAINS OF
MERCURY; WALKING
Englishman, Out of Work
Found Almost Unconscious
in Street, Is DYING.

Harrison. n. j., April l2.-Wiliam Da-
vies. an Englishman. twenty-three years
old. is dying In hospital In North Ar
lington after taking sixty grains OF BIZ
chloride of mercury. He came from Can
ada on Christmas Eve with Charles
Stopherd and took lodgings in Kearny.
He was unable to get employment and
worried over the board bill, which he was
unable to pay. Although he is believed
to have wealthy relatives near Bolton,
England, he would not write to them.
He went out to take walk on Satur-
day. Two hours later he was found in
North Arlington almost unconscious. He
said that he had wished to die and had
taken eight or ten bichloride Of mercury
tablets-more than sixty grains in all-in
the course of his walk. The first tablet
had no effect, and he kept on munching
them as he walked. He said that the pain
and thoughts of his family had changed
his views and now he wished 10 live.
For time he rallied under the care Of
DR.. A. A. Mutter, but tonight he lapsed
into coma from which there is slight
hope of arousing him.

who had been suffering from a mild form
Of religious mania since the beginning Of
Lent His relatives thought that with the
arrival of Easter he would calm down,
but instead he grew worse. on several
occasions during the last week he was
found on the roof from which he mag
ined he was ascending To heaven.
! Polokone was seized by relatives and
nelghbors and carried to the Bedford
ave. station. where he was attended by
