IF the administration really wanted
to deal death blow to the trusts it
could be accomplished efectually in
less than week by removing the high
protective tariff on the articles they
produce. 1t is the tariff that gives
the trust robbers the opportunity to
squeeze the very life-blood from the
people. Throw the gates wide open
and the trusts will fall like a house

Discarded Lover Pursues Policeman

When Policeman James ?. Walsh
Travelled his beat in Woodlawn, suburb
of Chicago, it was not footpads, thugs,
burglars or the like that he feared to
meet. It was Miss Sarah Connan, his
former fancee. who still loved him
though he had married another. So ar
IDENTIFY devoted to him was Sarah that
she followed him on his rounds, popped
out on him in dark corners, waylaid him
in lonely streets, and was hiding behind
the patrol box when he went to turn in
his call.
Whenever Miss Sarah got lonesome
and wanted to see Policeman Walsh,
which was about every other night, she
went out and hunted him up on his beat.
And he could not escape her by going
up alleys or across vacant lots. She al
ways found him.
While admitting that she followed the
policeman around on his beat Miss Con-
nan broke down and cried, and confessed
that she loved Walsh to distraction,
II know am silly" she said, ''and
l know that | am infatuated but | can't
help it.. When I would get lonesome I
would just have to 60 out and hunt him
up" -" -
It was story Of a broken romance.
Walsh and Miss Connan had been en-
gagged to marry a number of years ago.
Something interviewed and five years ago
Walsh went back to Ireland. When he
returned to Chicago he brought an Irish
girl as his wife. Since then Miss Con-
mans devotion has been hopeless.

Spouse to an inquiry on the subject, ''lu-
mlnous paint would not afford a cheap,
simple and easy solution of the street
corner sign problem and furnish signs
that could be read easily by night as by
day, because there is too much light
everywhere at night in the city to per-
NIT such signs to show plainly.
Paint a sign of luminous paint at the
entrance to dark alley and you would
find that it could be plainly seen, as
would be the case also with a doctor
sign painted in shadow or house
ton. Luminous paint is used to paint
stones marking the entrance to drives,
and it is put to various other uses.
Used for painting keyholes? No, I
can't say that it is. 1t has been suggest
ed that in this use an area or foot
square should be painted on the door,
with the keyhole at the center. The
man trying to find the keyhole would
certainly get within that fOOt-sQuare area
without difficulty to start with, and once
there, he would work naturally toward
the center. But, seriously, while 1 dom

"A while ago we had a call from a
powder manufacturer, who wanted to
know if we could fresco the interior Of
a powder magazine in such a way as to
make it light enough there so that they
could read the marks on the powder
barrels: We could scarcely do that for
him, but we could supply him with
something that would serve the same
end, which we did.
Cardboard is treated in such a man.
ner with luminous paint as to make it
suitable for background for signs, and
of luminous cardboard we made SIM
pie light giyer by means Of which the
marks on the barrels could be read. This
was a suitably mounted or framed sheet
of the cardboard, a foot or therea bouts
square with a handle on one side; some
thing like a framed picture, with ham
die attached to it.
This is kept hanging in the office in
the light, and when required for use it is
simply carried into the magazine and
held over the barrels to read the mark
ings by in getting out the packages they
want. You couldn't read the fine print
in a newspaper by such a light, but
you can read readily by it the mark

Wild Ride in a Fire Patrol.

Considerable excitement was ere.
ated at Morristown, n. J., re.
Gently by the supply wagon at.
tached to the hook and ladder fire com
pany running as if on still alarm to the
railroad station. On their arrival four
men alighted from the wagon and wait
ed for an incoming train. When the
train pulled in the depot Matthieson L.
Toms and his bride were seen getting off,
and Immediately the four fremen seized
them and carried them to the supply
wagon. The driver whipped I'D the
horses and started dashing through the
principal streets of the city. The sight
of the fire wagon and the ringing of the
gong attracted many people, who thought
there was a fire. Soon hundreds of citi.
zens ran madly behind the fire apparatus,
lncessantly appealing to those riding for
in; as to where the fire was.
The wagon finally wound up at the fire
house, where the bride and bridegroom
were escorted inside. Mr.. Toms is as
sistant cashier of the National Iron Bank
and member of the company. The dis
turbance was in celebration Of his recent
marriage to Miss Florence Fisher Of Jer-
sew CITY.

The Alta Has the0re

THERE IS NO DANGER that the
resources of ore. which the Alta mine
possesses will: be exhausted. For years
10 come there are vast unexplored re-
gions in the Alta mine and the contigu
GUS claims which the Alta Mines Co.
owns which may hold great bonanzas.
And, although at the present time the
shipments Of ore from the mine are TAX
ing away nearly one hundred tons of
| high and low grade ore every day, the
| work of development which at the same
moment progresses discovers to the miner
| and the stockholders in the company half
| as much ore again, which becomes fur
| Their substantial asset increasing the COM
pany's collateral resources thousands Of
| dollars a week
On the contrary THERE IS GREAT
| DANGER Of the exhaustion of the
| amount of stock which the company pre-
determined to sell at SOC share. With
in a short time the price of shares will
| be officially advanced to higher figures
and SIMILAR procedure recurring often
during the coming spring and summer
| will undoubtedly advance the selling
| price Of these shares to the vicinity Of
par.
| The Alta mine is now earning divi-
| dends at the rate of about 20 per cent.
| upon stock sold at SOC share. We re-
new our suggestion to intending investors
that by buying now they will obtain
stock in this company at the least price
at which it will ever sell and concurrent
~ become interested. in proportion to
their holding in a property whose actual
known assets equal several times the to-
tai value of stock which could be dis
posed of at this price.
In addition to these absolutely tangible
| assets the Alta, as these advertisements
often have recounted, owns twenty other
| mining claims, any one Of which may:
prove far richer than is the Alta itself.
We will gladly respond by letter or in
person to any inquiries made of us re-
garding this great property.
If you would make an investment in
stock which is SURE to earn TWENTY
PER CENT. DIVIDENDS, and prob
| ably will do much better within six
I months, buy: some shares in The Alta
Mines Company, now, at 3Oc share.
Address all inquiries and subscriptions
| to the undersigned, but make your
checks, drafts, or money orders payable

urer.

ABANDONING THE SHIP.

Baron TOLLS Arctic Ex petition to be
Brought Home Overland.
Baron Toll. the Arctic explorer is
spending the winter on his ship Sarja in
bay off the island of Kotelnoi, one of
the large New Siberia islands. The plan
was for him to return home, after com
pleting his work, by Behring strait, re-
peating Nordenskiold's voyage along the
entire north coast of Asia. He would
need, however, a large supply Of coal to
continue his voyage and the cost Of send
ing it to him, thousands Of miles through
the ice sea, would be very great. The
not to carry OUT the original: plan, but
has sent word. to Baron Toll to land at
the Lena delta next spring, leaving his
ship in the New Siberia islands, and
make his way south. to ::Irkutsk. where
his party may take the Siberian Railroad
home.
His ship is a stanch. one well fitted
for Arctic worL. The fact that SO good
ship is to be left to the mercy of the
elements on the shore Of bleak Arctic
island is an eloquent commentary upon
the formidable difficulties that confront
the navigator in those inhospitable wa
tiers.

more important land masses will be dis
