Par- cels Before Delivery. Post offices have received an order from the départment at Washington in which it is stated that no examination will be permitted Dy addressees of C. ©O. D. parcels received by parcel post, even though the senders of the same expressly state that they will permit such examination. The order is as follows: “The examination of C. O. D. parcels before delivery is prohibited. Some postmasters still comply with requests of senders or addressees or with notes issued by the express companies to their agents concerning shipments transported by them. “Misunderstanding is often due to the fact that the sender notifies the ad- that inspection is allowed and postmasters accept this notification. In future when there is presented to the Dostmaster at the office of the addres. u request from the sender pur- Porting (o be_ authority for esamisa tion, the postmaster will nootify the department.

Thinking the occurrence peculiar, he waited a momenl;. and the light ap- peared again. then went up to investigate the affair. When reached the corner of the building he discovered a man standing by the side door with a bit im his hand. He at once rushed forward and the fellow ran. At this moment two confederates came out of the shrubbery and at- tacked the Dflear ‘who bad caught and thrown the man, and rescued the bur- glar from hll hands.
