A Trial Order Solicited sider the matter, it was shown that the average time required for the delivery of parcels by the post office in London to about three hours. By the proposed system it was asserted that parcels could be delivered anywhere in the city in an average of one hour, an averaging saving of two hours for each parcel.

"Mary had a little lamb," 'Twas highly educated, It read the Morning Star each day-- Before it ever bleated.

And when it read of all the news, It seemed quite satisfied; But when it missed the Star just once 'That lamb laid down and died. When Mary's Lamb had really died, And ceased to play its pranks, 'They buried it with tenderest care, And wrote a "card of thanks.

The tube company offers a fixed charge for all parcels under 15 pounds and the toil will be less than that charged by any existing method of conveyance.

It was urged that the company could deliver but a small fraction of the vast number of parcels delivered by the London, shops. The company's engineer estimated over a third of this enormous traffic could be accommodated by. the pneumatic" service. It was declared that 217,486,000 parcels are distributed In the metropolis yearly, and that the company could take care of 80,000,000. The promoters seemed to be prepared to meet all objections to the practicability of the scheme.

Counsel opposing the bill endeavored to show that a large proportion of the parcels sent out by the London shops could not be shot through the 12-inch tubes proposed. The company, anticipating the objection, had kept watch at the great department stores, and found that 94 per cent, of the parcels sent out were "tubeable." While the proposed system would greatly facilitate deliveries of shoppers' parcels to the 172 receiving sta-tirJhs, this method of carriage would scarcely be accepted as a satisfactory substitute for the home delivery of the day's purchases; but it is imaginable that the perfected parcel tube system of the future will have its connection with every house, so that the goods wyi reach home long before the most elpedltioua chopper arrives there. 1,400 acres best agricultural land, 600 in cultivation, produces as high as 50 bushels of wheat and from 25 to ,50 bushels of corn acre, sheet wa ter at 18 to 25 feet, fenced and cross At 5 cents a week we are having no trouble in getting subscribers to The Atchison Daily Morning Star, The Morning Star came here to establish-a business, ami not for the boodle that might be extracted from tho purses of candidates otany political campaign.
