Gin "Eor Personal llss .

Soon after Senator Tillman's dis,
nensary law went into effect in South
Carolina the United States court de-
cared that liquors brought into tie
state for personal use could not be
seized by the constables. Naturally.
every shipment was marked "for per
sonal use, and respecting the Fedora,
authority, the officers would not
seize it. A few days after the an.
nouncement of the courts ruling. a
machinery establishment in Charles
ton loaded cotton gin for the interior
and it went out on a big truck. Five
miles from the city the truck broke
down, and the cotton machine was
left on the road until another team
could be provided. Before it was
moved a man drove by. Taking a
pasteboard box from his buggy ho
tore off wide strip and wrote this
inscription, leaving it on the machine.
This gin is for personal use." It was
not seized.

One of Champ Clark's Stories.

The big cut glass chandelier which
for years hung in the east room of
the White House has been removed to
the capitol and now decorates the
room of the committee on appropria-
lions. Champ Clark thinks there is
very little if any use for it there, as
the room is well lighted by the sun
and Congress seldom meets at night.
Reminds me of the deacons in a
country church out our way" said
the Missourian. "One of them wanted
to buy a chandelier, but another said:
4 think we'd better pay off the mort
gage. Supposin' we got this here
chandyleer, who's goin to play it?'
don't see how they're going to play
on this one either, as there is plenty

have all tne saws. knives. heads and

G. L. Borden is general manager
of the second floor. His material is
loaded on trucks and elevated to him.
He has a force Of fifty men, who give
the lumber such a hustle that it
seems to fly, being handled from one
machine to another Tracks and
trucks and men are all up to their
work and the lumber seems to cry as
it meets the saws, planes and boring
machines, every turn taking away
seme shavings and leaving the product
in finished state. On this floor the
machine is all of smaller and more
delicate type. The finishing proper
takes place here. Three dynamos are
used on this floor to operate the ma

On the first floor five large dyna
