SHIPPED
 AS EXPRESS PACKAGES

Two express packages" each con sisting of a little negro boy, recently passed through Denver en route from Topeka, Kansas, to Ogden, Utah. Or vile .Skaggs, eight years old, was package No. 1, while his brother, Lester, six years old, was package No. ?.
 Their mother, who resides in To- peka, decided to send them to their father, who is living in Ogden. Since the company accepts ani- mals of all kinds for transportation, the officials decided that the boys could be accepted.
 The company suspended one rule governing the shipment of live ani- mals, however, which undoubtedly added much to the boys comfort. That rule requires the crating of all animals sent by express.
 The boys, though saw to it that an other rule, which provides that ani- mals must be fed at all junction points and wherever else it may be necessary was not suspended.
