Seven indictments were presented
by the Federal grand jury before Judge
Dole yesterday morning. Two of them
were ordered on the secret file, but a
defendant in one of these divulged his
identity in open court.
F. NJ. Brooks, attorney of both the
Federal and Territorial bars, was this
one. He is indicted with SEVENTY
nine others for connection with what
has been called the Ten Dollar Club"
This is. an organization for the pro-
lection of persons-Japanese-
ted for offenses under the Z. S. stat
utes against the importation of women
for immoral purposes, peonage, etc.
The membership fee of $40 gave rise
to the nickname of the association just
mentioned. Mr.. Brooks was allowed
to go on his own recognizance, prom

ment this morning

The self-discovery by Mr.. Brooks did
not serve to abate the order for placing
that indictment on the secret file. An
alleged offense against the postal laws
is the subject of the secret Indictment
All of the five open indictments are
against japanese for crimes of inmor-
atty, three being against one man for
different offenses.
Ten prisoners indicted before Judge
Estee's death were arraigned and al
lowed to reserve their pleas until Mon
day. Two of them We're Manuel
Claudino and Francisco LIE Brun,
charged with forgery of postal money
order signatures. Another was Chu
Gun, who had all sorts of trouble in the
Federal and Territorial courts, accused
of peonage. The rest were japanese
for unlawful importation of women,
etc.
After reporting, the grand jury re-
sumed its sessions, again taking up
the matter of the missing House of
Representative vouchers.
Representative Jonah Kumalae has
been on the grand inquest gridiron sew
eral times and yet has not received the
word to go in peace.

Putting Down Carpets.

The secret of carpet-laying is simple,
but is all the more worth passing on fol
the benefit of other homemakers. All
depends on the order in which the differ
ent sides of the carpet are tackled. First
tack across the end of the room, across
the end of the breadths of carpet
mind, not along their length. Tack this
end firmly and rather closely; then take
the opposite end, leaving the two sides
loose until the end has been stretched
tightly and tackled in place. BY taking
the opposite end for the second row OF
tacks one can pull the carpet true, while
the average carpet put down by mex
perienced hands and tackled along one
end and then put down the side is very
apt to be pulled askew. The two ends
fastened, the carpet is true to the room,
and the work of lacking the sides is soon
accomplished. These do not require
lacking as closely as the ends except in
front of doors.
Another notion which may have some
value to the younger housewives is this
If the old-fashioned rag carpet is used in
kitchen or dining rOom--and there is
nothing which will stand hard wear
better-do not have it sewed. The
breadths laid in place and slightly Tapped
will stay in place fairly we'll, and they
can be lifted and cleaned so much more
easily that it is worth while to leave
them loose. When cleaned each breadth
should be pinned firmly on a clothes-line,
with clothes pins at frequent intervals.
Whip the lower edge of the breadth
thoroughly, and then unpin and hang it
up by the other edge and whip again. In
this way rag carpet too heavy to be
well cleaned at home can be handled
and got even cleaner than is done by the
carpet cleaning establishments, even by
a woman who has no masculine arm to
assist her.-EXchanSe

Rlunders of a Grand Duke.

Grand Duke Carl Alexander of SAKE
Weimar, the son and successor OF Goethe's
friend and patron, Carl August, is better
and more favorably known for his friend
illness and tenderness of heart than for
his intellectual qualities.
Indeed, his royal highness sometimes
makes plumbers that in a less highly
placed individual would be characterized
as ''stupid," and endless are the stories
current in German illustrating his Pc
culiarities.
On certain occasion the grand duke
paid visit of inspection to one of the
prisons of his domain, and in course OF
conversation with the director of the in
stitution expressed the wish to see one of
the criminals.
"DOes your royal highness wish to see
"a mild or desperate case?"
"a desperate case," replied the
prince, and accordingly one of the life
prisoners was brought up under guard.
wherefore have you made your abode
here!' inquired the grand duke of the
scowling, evil-looking individual in the
formal, stilted language characteristic OF
him.
"Because 1 murdered my father
snarled the convict.
"You murdered your sire!" exclaimed
the duke. 20, my! o, my! What
period do you contemplate remaining
here?
"All my life."
"Director," said the tender-hearted
ruler, turning to the prison official, "the
last three years of this mans sentence
are remitted."
At another time the grand duke visited
one of the public schools of Weimar,
and in, the course of his investigation
noticed two small boys whose similarity
was most striking. -,
"Why, what a remarkable likeness!'
he exclaimed: s'those lads must be twins,
are they not?"
Eyes, your royal highness," replied
the principal, and he beckoned the two
frightened youngsters to him..
"Ah, my son." said the prince, plac-
ing his hand on the head of one of them
"What is your name?"
"Heinrich."
"And how old are your"
"Six."
"And you2" he said, turning to the
other boy.
A new railway line had been opened in
the duchy, and year or two later while
out walking his royal highness came to
one of the little houses which in Germany
mark the crossings, and which are in
habited by the official, together with his
whole family, whose duty it is to sigma
the trains.
1t CHANGED that the youngest daughter
of the crossing master stood waiting,
flag in hand, for an overdue express
train. Addressing her in his fatherly
manner, the grand duke inquired hel
name.
Lena" she replied with courtesy.
elena what?"
elena Schmidt"
"Ah, 1 see. And how old are you
Lena?'
give years old, SIR"
"Impossibler exclaimed the grand
duke, in whose mind railroads and rail
road officials were so closely connected
as to have no separate existence. "Why
this line is only three years old."-New
York Times.

Care of Tender Feet.

There is certainly nothing much more
trying to busy woman than tender
feet. Much trouble in this matter in the
spring is due to wearing felt slippers
they are so handy and comfortable in
cold weather that the temptation is to
wear them all day, though they are in
tended chiefly to slip on for a while in
the morning.
Washing the feet frequently in cool
water is very helpful, especially in hot
weather, also changing tho shoes fire.
quently. When the feet begin to ache,
even if you have on your most comfort
able shoes, try something else for the
rest of the day or for few hours at
least. 1t is quite essential to comfort to
have the shoes fit. Tight shoes are not
more uncomfortable than very loose
ones, nor are they harder on the feet in
the end, as the loose shoes rub and pro-
duce corns, etc. A change from either
for time will rest the feet.
Powders of different kinds made for
the purpose have been found very bene-
fetal, both for the tenderness and pain
and to prevent perspiring of the feet. A
small box lasts good while and pays as
it goes. Another way to treat tender
feet is to wear low shoe without heels,
or better still to adopt the sandal known
as the "barefoot SHOE" This very COM
Portable foot-gear gives perfect freedom
to the foot muscles and the needed venti-
lation, and cures bunions and corns if
worn persistently, and provided it fits
properly.-The Ladies' World.
