wonder what sign the boys who read
this have for challenging or inviting one
another to go in swimming. The boys
in the Boys Town used TO make the
motion of swimming with both arms; or
they held up the fore finger and middle
finger In the form of a swallow tail;
they did this when it was necessary to
be secret about it, as in school, and when
they did not want the whole crowd of
boys to come along; and often when they
just pretended they did not want some
one to know. They really had to be Sc
cret at times, for some of the boys were
not allowed to go in at all; others were
forbidden to go in more than once OF
twice a day; and us they all had to go in
at least three or four times a day, some
sort of a sign had to be used that was
understood among themselves alone

AUGUSTA, Me May 29.-The supreme
court to day made a unanimous decision
in the noted Burns liquor case, reversing
the decision Of the lower court, which
convicted Burns under the statutes.
Burns, a few years ago, opened in Au-
gusta an Original package" business,
selling only liquori imported from the
provinces and other Countries. claiming
that the state had no right under the
United States constitution Il interfere
with his business. The case was carried
up step by step until now it is decided in
Burns favor. The court says IN part:
The Iowa case just decided by the
supreme court of the United States clearly
settles the question. We are bound by
that decision to reverse the ruling below
and sustain the law as contended for by
the respondent. The minority opinion in
the Iowa case is elaborated and commends
itself to many as containing a better CON
clusion. Our obedience is due to the
Judgment which prevails. Our statutes
prohibit only unlawful sales. Its inter.
probation must be constitutional.

WASHINGTON, May 29.-The senate
finance committee this morning took up
the tariff bill and considered it by para
graphs. subject to subseqent action. The
chemical schedule was first taken up,
and it was decided not to recommend free
alcohol in the acts as that question affected
many other items in:the schedule. Alter
going over thirty-eiRht items. thirteen OF
the most important being passed without
action, the moor hour arrived and the
question Of future meetings was
preached. Senator Sherman suggested
daily sessions of ten hours each in order
to hurry matters through. This met With
opposition from both sides. Carlisle and
Voorhees, said it was a waste Of time. as

anyhow.
Voorhees, thought the Republicans
could agree on a bill ami the Democrats.
if they thought best, could present a
minority report.
Hiscock, Jones and Morrill, spoke in a
similar strain. Hiscock moved that a
sub committee on each side be appointed
to prepare such schedules as would be ad-
vocated BY its party On the floor of the
senate and that each side submit its
schedule to the other as soon as prepared.
No change was made as to the question
of giving oral hearings. The changes
made in the chemical schedule today are
all reductions. They were proposed by
Republicans and supported by some of the
Democrats. None of them are of aoy
sippifcance.

the arrival of a squad of Hungarians that
had been sent for and were being distrb-
uted about the works. The hands all quit

demanded what money was due them, de-
claring they would not work with Huns or
Italians. The Huns were then bounced
and all the old hands returned to work.
Had they not, all the hands at the other
works would have struck, and then brick
and pipe-maling would have been brought
