Native-Made Cloths.

The collector also calls attention to the
fact that the demand for cotton goods Is
still largely supplied by native cloths, an
industry which he says is largely carried
on in the cottage homes of Manchuria.
Foreign yarns, he adds, are in general
use for this purpose, their popularity over
native yarn being accounted for by their
greater smoothness. lesser liability to
breaking and greater cheapness. Here
in fact" he says, Lies the great Compel

manufacturers in America, Great Britain
and Japan. In the words of the Blackburn
commission. There is one form Of compe-

or at least moderated, and from which the
conditions under which it IS carried on,

the Courts.

Plymouth. Mass, Nov. 2S.-Counsel for
the seven Marion men now on trial for
giving coat Of tar and feathers to James
Mcdonald at Marion last August will en-
deavor to prove an alibi in the case Of
each defendant and will also try to show
that no tar was placed on Mcdonald S
body.
The men are also charged with having
shamefully mistreated Mrs Clara F. Pot
ter. wife of Charles F. Potter. The al
legged cause Of the visit Of the white caps
was that McDOnald's attentions to Mrs.
Potter were too marked.
Mrs. Potter, in her testimony, said Nc
Donald boarder at her house and
was at home on Aug. g. The regulators,
she said came to the house, forced their
way in. took Mcdonald to sand pit, and
tarred and feathered him. When she pro-
tested against their actions, she says, they
stripped all her clothes off and slapped her
face.
The seven men accused are O. B. An
dreWs, Andrew w. Clifford, Hector Nc
Leod. William Potter, Noble e. Bates
Oliver F. Bumpus and Joseph Saliva. The
case on trial is the first of the kind ever
tried in court here.
Lawyer Cummins, for the defense, out
lined what he hopes to prove. He said
that he would show that Hector Mcleod
the man who. Mcdonald says, welded the
sault and did not leave home that night
He could also show, he said, that the other
defendants were not in the crowd that
went to POtters house and took Mcdonald
to the sand pit. The lawyer also claimed
that he could prove by the testimony of
the owner of the pit that no feathers or
tar were there for three days after the
affair, although other witnesses have tes-
titled to finding Jumps Of tar and plenty
of fea therS on the ground.
William A. Andrews. chairman of the
board Of selectmen of Marion. testified
that on the morning after Mcdonald had
said he was ridden on a rail he saw the
latter stripped from the waist up, but
saw no tar nor feathers upon his body.
Dr. A. w. Rice testified that Mcleod
had neuralgia in the face and that he
treated him at ) o'clock the afternoon of
the assault upon Mcdonald and again the
next morning, but did not know where
he was during the evening. Se1ectmen
William H. Cobb Of Marion testified that
he saw no signs of tar or feathers upon
McDonald's body. and George F. Richards
gave the same testimony. Several other

How sydney Smith FIoored the Natural

Nursery Rhyme.

For Sydney Smith to joke was no great
effort, but not even he could always Joke
so effectively as in the instance men

He was the guest at dinner of an arch
deacon at whose table there were others
OF the cloth, among them one who was
greatly interested in natural history AS
the man rode. his hobby to death, he was
the prince Of bores, and his entrance was
therefore viewed with something like con-
sternation. He was unknown to Sydney
Smith, but his popularity was soon laid
bare.
'There'l be no talk at all unless YOU
can manage to floor him. said one of the
men to Smith. Cant you manage it?''
II can try he returned CALAMITY, al
thought with some doubt, for there was
no telling to what branch Of his crotchet
the bore would turn.
The dinner began. The one or two GUS
tomary toasts such as 1.-THE Queen" 1.-THE
Church, had been honored, and there
came a lull which was the bore's oppor-
tunity.
Mr. Archdeacon,' said he, "have you
seen the pamphlet written by my friend,
Professor Dickinson, on the remarka BILE
size OF the eye i'll a common house fly?''
The archdeacon courteously said he had
not had the privilege, and in spite of the
discOuraging looks on the faces of the
guests, the bore pursued his advantage:
II can assure you it is most inter-
esting pamphlet, setting forth particulars
hitherto unobserved, as to the unusual
size of that eye.''
II deny the fact" said a voice from the
other end of the table.
All smiled save the bore.

Madison, Wis, Nov. 2S.-The consti-
tutionality of the law which requires can
didates for county school superintendent
to hold teachers or superintendent
certificate and to have taught school at
least eight months was upheld by the
supreme court to-day in the case of
Elizabeth H. Fordyce, superintendent of
Price county.
Miss Fordyce was elected to the office
two years ago Notwithstanding the fact
that she did not have the required aualifl-
cations. Suit was brought by c. c. KEEL

her ousted from the office, and Judge
Helms, who tried the case for Judge Par

the supreme court.

The First and Best of the Season
of 1902.
August 10, 90, 81, and 20

August 10, 20, 81, and 20.
from The Tribune.
Officers of this association are not
blowing much, but lot OF work Is
being done to secure exceptionally
fine exhibits and attractions to make
the fair Of 1902 popular and sue
cessful one. TO the city of Mineral
Point, this is an important enter
prise, and our people should sustain
it literally and Loyalty, by making
exhibits in the several departments
and contribute in every way possible
to the entertainment and comfort of
the thousands who are annually
drawn here by the Fair. Business
men of the city are especially ex-
pected to take active interest in it,
but every citizen and property own
er should feel that he has part to
perform.
In the management of the fair
there is expended each year five
thousand dollars or more. Most of
this is distributed among the people
of the city and immediate vicinity,
for labor materials aud premiums,
and enters into the local channels of
trade. A larger sum is annually
spent in the city by people who come
to attend the fair, and, because of
the fair, learn Of the advantages of
this city as a market in which to
buy and sell throughout the year. AS
business of the town prospers, prop
erty of the town is benefited; when
business lags, property values fall.
Nothing of the same cost is more
helpful to town than good annu-
al fair. The business men and prop
erty owners of Mineral Point had
better contribute annually $1,000 for
the maintenance of the fair here
than to have it fail. Many see this
and support the fair accordingly, but
too many, while receiving the bene-
fits, shirk their part in its mainten-
ence, or, even worse, carpingly criti-
else those who do the work, and
give their time in the enterprise. In
this year of bounteous promise the
fair should be the best ever known
and it will be if all the people of this
city stand Loyalty by it and support
those who are faithfully striving to
perform the duties of management.
