For several years past Illinois has had a
law establishing free employment Offices

persons who wanted employment and those
who wished to employ labor. The passage

agencies from furnishing the names or ad-

A cry comes from the bachelors of

Nice Little Love Story.

A dreamer and man of action loved
woman.
The dreamer said: 81 shall write
verses in her praise; they will touch
her vanity, and she will love me for
them"
But the man of action said: "How
old-fashloned. l shall corner the stock
market, and that will bring her"
So the dreamer wrote verses, and he
induced friend of hers who ran a
10-cent magazine. to print them. And
the man of action cornered something
or other, and became a Millionaire.
In the meantime the girl married a
man who inherited his money, and
lived happy ever after.
But the dreamer was so proud of his
verses that he didn't care, and the
man of action was so busy that he
didn't care.

A new quartz discovery has been

A CLEAN SWEEP
POSTAL SCANDALS ASSUME A
GRAVE ASPECT.
Personnel of Commission on Sup.
plies Has Been Entirely Chang
vice Are Withheld Pending In
vestigatiOns.

Washington, April 2l.-The post
master general has made clean sweep
in the personnel of the commission
which annually makes the awards for
postoffice supplies under the division
controlled by M. A. Louis, which di-
vision is under investigation. The long
list of scandals has now been increased
by allegations against even the dead
letter Office division, which is also I'M
der the first assistant postmaster gen.
eral.
The comptroller of the treasury has
rendered a decision which holds up all
the promotions authorized by the divi-
sion of salaries and allowances recently
under charge of Mr.. Beavers.
Senators are now paying private Wis.,
its to Mr.. Machen, who is making his
fight primarily for himself and second
arily to eventually secure the removal
of all those who have charged him
with illegal acts.
Senator Aldrich has had long con-
ference with the postmaster general.
The foregoing are the results of sim
gle day in the great postoffice scandal
now in progress.
The change in the personnel of the
commission to award contracts is i'm
portant. The old commission consisted
of Chief Clerk Howell, who was for.
merly private secretary to Perry S.
Heath l.. KNIT, who was selected from
the division controlled by Beavers, and
T. A. Graham, chief of the mail and
equipment division. ONLY the Central
Labor Union of this city filed charges
against the conduct of the mail bag re-
pair shop here, which is under the
charge of Chief Graham.
The Bingham Company, of Philadel-
phia, by its agent, recently protested
against the action of the old commits
sion in tho matter of awarding certain
supplies SO that practically the whole
commission was brought under fire,
though none OF the members are
charged with any kind OF irregulality
personally.
Heretofore the custom has been in
the appointment of this commission to
have two out of three of its members
appointed from the bureau of the first
assistant postmaster general. This has
now been changed. The new commits.
sioners are E. f. Kimball, of the mon
ey order division. under First Assistant
Postmaster General J. H. Reeve, now
superintendent of postage stamps and
supplies in the office of the third as
sistant postmaster general, and &. A.
Meyer, clerk in the Office of the Sec
ond assistant postmaster general.
The fight TOR and against Mr.. Machen
is getting warmer every day. 1t is nm
derstcod that there is concentration
of effort to wreak vengeance on First
Assistant Postmaster General Wynne
if the charges against Machen fail. Mr..
Machen knows that the charges were
ordered to be investigated by POstmas-
ter General Payne, but Mr.. Machen's
powerful congressional clique capnot
afford to fight Mr.. Payne, so substi-
tute has been selected for slaughter.

He is pure white, of majestic mien,

Grocer Dickey has two assistants in

the woman manager and allows her to
attend to all financial transactions and
keep the money box. But she is given
to understand that he is sole proprie-

but the woman gives many interesting
accounts of his ways and doings, caus-
ing nearly every one to desire an ac-

HIGHSTRUNG FISH FROM NORTH

Climatic Con 'itions Have the Same
Effect Under Water as on Land.
"The theory that climatic conditions
are largely responsible for the enter
prise and activity of the American
people finds contemporary demonstra-
ton in the lower orders of ANNA Is,
and particularly among the fish" said
scientist who has made close study
of the collection in the New York aqua
rum.
"All of the game fish" he said. "the
fighters, the highstrung, nervous fell
lows like the brook trout. the black
bass and their only slightly less siren
uous brother, the pike. are northern
fish. In only rare Instances do these
fish become tame or remain restful in
captivity. They have the keen spirit
of American enterprise in them.
con the other hand. the quiet. easy
going fish are nearly all from tropical
waters. OF course. there are eXcep-
tons from muddy habitats. but all of
the brllant-hued, gaudy fish are from
the tropics. They are calm and quiet.
and after short time in captivity be-
come so tame as to eat food fearlessly
from the hands of the keepers.

scientist according to the New York

United States Now I'm porting Almonds

What Is regarded by government ex-
perts as a great piece of good fortune,

almonds and in 1901 her output was no

particularly fine shape is highly priced

almonds are made from Jordan al
