POST IN
THIS CITY MODEL

Chicago is to have the same exten-
sion of the parcel post to bring pro-
ducers and consumers closer together
as was arranged for in Rock Island
some time since. The Tribune says
Postmaster Daniel a. Campbell
probably will begin today the exten-
sion of the parcel post system by
which an exchange of farm products.
butter, eggs, and even milk may be
made between Chicago housewives and
the producers. Mr.. Campbell said yes
terday he expected to receive Post
master General Burleson's instructions
regarding the new service either to-
day or on Monday.
MIR. Campbell exhibited list of
names of 800 farmers ready to sell
their products direct to city consum-
ers. The list is that published by the
Rock Island postoffice and contains the
names of farmers in the immediate
vicinity of that city.
1.-The farmers near Rock Island are
too far away from Chicago TO serve
the market in Chicago economically by
parcel post Mr. Campbell said. AS
soon as j receive instructions from
Washington we shall take steps to OBJ
tain a list of names of producers In
the vicinity of Chicago. The names
and the product each farmer has to
sell will be published as soon as it is
prepared
Arrangements for remittance and
for cost of transportation are to be
made between the parties. The re-
sponsibility of the government ends
with the supplying OF the means OF
transportation"

AGED RULER VISITS SICK
Addresses Each Wounded Man in His
Mother Tongue.

Rome, Oct. 3 (via Paris).-A story
has reached Rome from Vienna de-
scribing a visit paid by Emperor Fran
els Joseph to a local hospital in the
course of which his majesty spoke to
everybody in the institution. The en-
perors doctors are now urging him to
spare himself and not to visit the hos
pitfalls filed with wounded, as they
fear the effect of emotion on a man
of such advanced years. It is declar-
ed that the emperor insisted on seeing
each wounded man and addressing him
in his mother tongue, German, Hunga-
rian, Polish. Slav. Bohemian or Ital-
ian, as the case might be.
