ST. Louis, April IA corps of agents
of the United States department of com-
merce was in st. Louis Saturday inquir-
ing into the operations of the alleged
and so-called beef trust" Their names
and their movements are kept secret.
According to information they have

causes of the alleged low prices of beef
cattle in the United States in July and
the unusually large margin between the
prices of beef cattle and the selling
prices of fresh beef
The resolution directs Secretary Cor
telyou to ascertain and report whether
the prices have been manipulated by any
corporate combination, and, if so, what
the capitalization, management and
profits of such combinations are.
From st. Louis, the inspectors will
visit Chicago, Kansas City and st. Jo-

The King and the Preacher.

Dr. South on one occasion after
preaching before Charles H., who, by
the way, did not care any more than
the humblest dissenter to listen to a
read sermon, was twitted by the king
Of having read from a manuscript.
How is it, DR.. South" said his males
ty, that you, who are so famous for
preaching without book, should read
your sermon when you preach before
me?' May l answer your majesty
with another question: replied the
witty doctor. How is it that your
majesty always reads your speeches
to your faithful commons?" "Odsfsh,
DOCTOR said Charles, "because I have
asked them for money so often that by
this time l am ashamed to look them
In the face Dr. South, it must be
admitted, had fairly laid himself open
to the retort.

"AS BOLD AS A LION. !"
Rather Say Bold as Partridge II
You Would he Exact.

You Would he Exact.
The only explanation Of the adage,
As bold as lion,'' Is that the lions
magnificent, muscular body, his noble
head, great name, the fact that he is a
wild beast and still more probably
his deep throated roar that sounds so
extraordinarily bold have made him
feared for generations. But the lion
belongs to the family of cats and is
not bold. To those who know best he.
is not brave even in the hour of dam.
ger. The lioness, who is smaller, less
terrible to look upon and is without al
name, is brave in defense of her young:
but she, too, is not bold. She is merely;
bolder than the lion. In comparison:
with any animal that can face danger
and fight fair the lion is coward;
how it is that the lion chooses to hunt
his prey
The lion does not hunt. In the reeds
and grasses near some pool in the jun
gle he lies hidden where he knows that
other animals will go to drink. Cat
like, he leaps upon his victim, striking
1t with his powerful paws. Then his
great jaws break the neck of the un-
fortunate creature he has taken by sur
prise, and the lion boldly carries off
the carcass to devour it where he will
The folk who live on the outskirts Of
jungles in the lions country sometimes
lose their sheep and goats when hun
CRY lion can muster courage to go near
human habitation in his search for
food. He goes at night and stealthily.
Who knows but that his heart goes
pit-a-pat and his big limbs tremble at
every sudden noise? The natives Of
India and Of Africa know, however,
lion by fire and torches. If cornered
and forced to fight he will do battle
savagely, but he doesn't seek an open
fight, and any traveller will tell you
that as rule the liking of beasts
bolts on sighting a man.
To be as bold as a partridge as
brave, unselfish, daring, heroic as a
partridge-is something one might be
proud to boast. No lion defends it's
young With the courage of partridge.
The lioness at bay will turn in defense
Of her cubs, will fight the enemy, will
spring at him furiously; the partridge
will leave it's little ones quite unpro-
tected in the nest, or wherever they
may be in hiding, and will offer herself
to spare them. 1t is not the unthnk-
Ing heroism Of excitement. The bird
knows what she is doing and the dan

to herself, but she manages to lead the

When the Halliday twins were ba.

them collectively. This was natural
enough, for they shared everything,
from their baby carriage to chicken
pox.
AS they grew little older however,
there were slight differences between
Elnora and Eudora, but Mrs. Halliday
took no account of them. When they
had reached the age of seven, she still
referred to them in way which struck
casual listeners as amusing.

VICTIMS OF EXPLOSION.
Six Young Girls Known to have Been
Killed, and Death List May
Be Increased.

Scranton, Pa, April IA number
OF girls employed in the Dickson Squib
Manufacturing company's works at
Priceburg, near here, were killed from
an explosion yesterday. The number
killed is estimated from + to 49, Eight
cen or twenty girls were employed in
the building at the time of the explo-
sion.
The cause of the accident is a mys-
terry. One story is to the effect that,
previous to the explosion, one of the
girls threw a squib into a stove and
the explosion that followed was of suf-
ficient force to wreck the building and
set the structure on fire.

James l., that an act was passed de-
claring void all monopolies for the sole
buying, selling and making of goods
excepting patents for fourteen years
for any new process or new manufac-

looked!
