prices have been higher than for years,
some of the finer berries realizing the
growers from seyen to ten cents per
quart. Last week berries were
gradually on the decline and by the
end of this week will be a thing of the
past as far as this season is concerned.

Wilkesbarre, Pa, Sept. 1.-two
Italians, John Divine and Antonio Dizzi,
employed at the Old Forge mine of the
Pennsylvania Coal company at Old
Forge, Pa, were held up by fifty Italian
strikers as they were returning from

badly dubbed and stoned. Several shots
were fired. and striker is reported to
have been shot in the leg. Dfvfnos in

removed to a Hospital.
All is quiet in, the Wyoming region.
Contrary to reports circulated last

The fact is. Salina is 101 miles nearer

compel the millers and grain dealers of

SaS wheat and flour.
If central Kansas should ship it's wheat
and flour to Galveston over the Rock Is

excuse for such offense. Monday they
solemnly assured us that there should be
no selling of Intoxicating drinks; while ar
that very time three saloons were set up
and in operation 1t is useless for the Off
Gals to contend that they did not know 1t.
Then on Wednesday they informed us that
the saloons, had been driven out. The Of

this was going all the time. 1t was de-

wv P. Triclzett of the Kansas City
transportation bureau has determined to
take decisive action to compel the Chi

rescind its grain rate from Kansas points

THEY WILL GET ALIMONY.


Judge Hazen this morning allowed
aIimony in three divorce cases in the
district court this morning.
The court granted Mary Burgett SO q
month alimony to be paid by Bert Bur-
month alimony from Walter Richards.
The court announced that Rosa Inman
might have SO month alimony from
James Inman, but Attorney Fred Slater
objected. He said that a week ago the
court had allowed SIS alimony in the
case and he did not wish it reduced.
Judge Haxen had overlooked the former
decision. so he did not reverse himself
but let the alimony stand at $25.

VATICAN DISTURBED
By . Report That the Car
Won't Visit the Pope.

Rome, Sept. 1.-THE announcement
that the czar. when he returns the visit
of King Victor Emmanuel, will not call
vatican. 1t is said that the Russian
minister, to, the holy see will purpoeely
be absent from Rome during the So
journ OF the czar here, 20 as to render It
easier to ignore the vatican. Papal
diplomacy is doing Its utmost to pre-
vent such an awkward incident, which
is attributed to the desire of the car
to show his displeasure at the pope's
action in Withdrawing the papa1 nuncio
from The Hague because he was not
invited to take part in the peace con-
gress.
