 Both were at the county house for sev- eral months and knew nothing of each other IS presence. When the mother died,
 her son was notified i'll Syracuse, and he came here, and as he was about to enter the home he saw his father on the plaza of that institution.

A FIGHT OF GIANTS.
The Quarrels of tho Trusts May Eventually
 Result In Socialism.

The Quarrels of tho Trusts May Eventually
 Result In Socialism.
 The prophecies of those saying that the vast trnsts of the present day are the first contradictions of the socialism of the future seem to have some con frmation in recent events in Brooklyn.
 The Sugar trust, which practically controls the whole product and importa- tion of the country, uses annually many thousand barrels of lubricating oil, which is bought from the Oil trust Ev- erybody knows that this trust sells nearly all the oil used ill this country. The two trusts quarreled about prices, whereupon the Sugar trust built its own refinery and began to produce its own oil. Then strange things happened. Sand got into it's oil, rubber got melted and mixed with it, and the oil general ly was worthless. Now, the Sugar trust knows very well that these things have always happened to people who disre- garded the Oil trust-som chimes rival refineries have burned down in the night. Such tactics might deter pri- yate citizen with limited capital, but they will hardly avail against rival trust with millions and millions of cap ital
 No; this looks like fight to a finish. The Oil trust may retaliate by going into the sugar business, and the Sugar people may extend their operations i'll oil The fight will at last become so bitter that MT. Havemeyer and Mr. Rockefeller will get together and follow the usual courses -amalgamate their in terests and build the giant Oil and Sug- ar trust
 Then other wars will break out, other trusts will combine, and ultimately some half dozen gentlemen will dictate prices for everything. The people will step in about then and take charge them selves, and that will be the first stage of socialism.
 It is an interesting prophecy. The fight between Oil and Sugar is we'll worth watching and studying, for it means either this or the disintegration of trusts. New York World.

 The tourist hat has become so staple as to have practically usurped the place of the shapes that were formerly com prised under that title
 It would be boon to the soft hat trade if some other shape would come to the front, the competition on tourists having reduced their manufacture to the always pleasing position of barely covering shop expenses. = American Halter
