CHICAGO Is ALARMED
ANOTHER RIOT on LAKE FRONT
II Took Fifteen Hundred Policemen Il,
Disp~rse the Hungry Crowd That
Blocked the streets.

CHICAGO, Aug. 30-An enormous crowd
of unemployed men and women col
lected On lake front to hold a maxs
meeting. 1t was so very much larger
than was expected that 900 policemen
we're placed on duty there and 900 ad-
ditional summoned from outlying sta
tions.
As the morning wore on the crowd
constantly increased and became more
turbulent. Impromptu speeches were
made at various points and indications
Of rioting were manifested. Finally
the crowd surged across Michigan ave.
nue., blocking the streets abutting on 1t
and preventing the entrance to the Au-
ditorium and other hotels.
About this time the police began TO
appear in the crowd. Meantime 500
Italians and others started for the.
SpizzaTia market on State street. where
were stored so rifles used by the Italian
societies in parades. Having arrived
there the mob demanded tie guns, bnt
SPizzaria refused to give them up,
pushed the invaders out and locked the
doors. He then gave them 81, with
which they bought Italian and Ameri.
can flags, and returned TO the lake
front, the squad Of police keeping An
eye on them, but making no arrests.
The return of the Italians increased
the excitement, and soon the mob be-
gan throwing stones at the police, fol-
lowed by shower of coupling pins,
picked up on the Illinois Central rail-
road tracks. Orders were at once sent
to have the Calling guns in readiness,
and the police were ordered to charge.
Their clubs at once began to beat
lively tune on the heads Of the mob and
In An incredibly short time II broke and
ran in every direction, quickly melting
int individuals fleeing through the
streets and alleys.
Shortly after O'Clock this afternoon,
everything being quiet and the crowds
isIersed, the reserve police forces
we're sent home. AT the armory Of the
Second infantry on lake front there was
much earnest work this evening, extra
guards being placed on duty with line
OF pickets outside. The same conditions
prevail At the West Side armory Of the
Second and the armory of the Sixth
regiment, all being prepared for any
possible attempt to sack the armories
Mayor Harrison said tonight that he
would not allow any more inceHdiary
speeches to be made on lake front.

SPOKANE'S BOODLERS
TWO cousc,lmes IN TROUBLE
Peter steep asd Peter Gsaham. lesnbsss
Prom the seeoad ward, Areassd Of
Accepting . Bribe.

SPOKANE, Aug. 3O.-There we're two
arrests yesterday Of more than ordi.
nary importance, in that they were
members Of sPokane's city council. The
men were Peter Grahaa and Peter
Steep. both members from the Second
ward. Messrs. Grahaa and Steep are
charged with receiving brides for their
votes in the council in the matter Of q
claim for extra work BY a contractor
for the building Of street sewer.
There was NO great surprise over the
arrests, a. ruuors had been circulating
all day of very sensational character
duplicating a. possible prisoners other
ofacials besides members of the council.
These rumors had prepared the general
public for the news that two arrests
had been made. The only sensation
created was when the names of the
councilmen taken before Justice Wood
were made known.
The rumors that other member of
the city government were to be Ar.
rested were without authority, ap-
parently. as no further steps were taken
during the afternoon or evening, and
no one could be found last night who
had any knowledge of any more intend.
ed arrests.
The movement leading up to the ar
rest Is traced back to a sewer contract
between the city and Thomas Olson.
Olson turned in a bill of S3.70o for ex-
tras. 1t was rejected, and he got judg-
ment in the courts. The allegation Il
that some of the members of the coun-
Gil kept up the fight, threatening to
carry an appeal to the supreme court !;
that Olson was hard pressed for money,
and that to get his claim allowed he
agreed to pay several councilman snm.
ranging from 500 to $500.
The prisoners we're taken before Jus
tice Wood, who continued the case until
next Tuesday, the eouncIlmen giving
bonds for their appearance in the
amount Of s., 600 each.

tended that the concession for the sale
of this article Is held by a man outside
Of the commission, the resolution passed

case will infer. The resolution reads:
THAT If it shall be ascertained to .
certainty that any member Of the Wash.
ington worlds fair commission, en-.
Ployed under salary, is financially in
terested in any concession for the sale
of foods, articles or commodities in the
expedition, the president is directed
and authorized to discontinue the ser.
vice of such commissioner under a

neral Passenger Agent Fee of the Nor
them Pacific company, complaining
that employees of the commission we're
trying to direct travel from Northern
Pacific lines, BY talking up an excursion
TO this country over the lines of the
Great Northern. In Justice TO the CON-
pany for the services 1t had rendered
the state in taking the exhibit to Chi
cago he felt it should be stopped. In
reply the board passed resolution re.
GREETING that any employee of the CON-
mission should be guilty of such action,
and the of,cers of the commission are
directed to see that the practice be dis
continued or the offender discharged.

petition depresses the price Of cattle
and corn. Imports of animals and meat
will swamp the markets this year.
Great Britain will be more than ever
dependent on foreign supplies and will
require at least .s,OtO,OOO quarters OF
wheat from abroad. Frunce must i'm.
port more than twice as much as she
usually does. Germany has already
begun TO draw on the American markets

A Practical Illustration.

Uncle Silas was the best posted man
ON general topics in the village, and a
hunter Of renown as well. He also had
a virago for a wife. Dear, dear, what q
temper that woman had! She was thu
only thing on earth Of which Uncle
Silas was afraid.
One day class of school children
called on the old man. They were sent
by their teacher to get some facts in
natural history.
"We've come" said the spokesman of
the class, ''to ask you some questions,
Uncle Silas, about the habits and Gus
toms of the wildcat"
Uncle Silas had been very glad to see
them, as the broad smile on his face
testified. But now he looked very much
alarmed.
"H-u-s-hr' he said, with a cautious
gesture; ''who on arth sent We here on
such a. errand?"
miss Knowles, our teacher" said the
class in concert.
.'Waal, she oughter know better. /
amt never he'd anythin to say about
them thar critters sence-oh, Lordy,

an armed with broom lit in.

Early Methods of Curing skins.

The original process of curing skins
was probably the simple one of cleaning
and drying them. Removal of the hair
by maceration in water seems to have
been common among the very early
tribes, and one writer has suggested
that the idea was obtained from the
natural process of depilation. They
must certainly have been familiar with
it in the case of drowned animals, where
maceration can be plainly observed.
Following this, smoke, sour milk, oil
and the brains of the animals themselves
were found efficacious. Many of these
primitive methods are employed at the
present time, thus bringing into move
conjunction the days Of the rowing Mas
sageta and those Of the thrifty Ameri
can.--George A. Rich in Popular Science
Monthly.
