Foreign Wine Producers Angered at
American Consuls' Activity.
Washington, Aug. 22.-American
consuls in the wine producing coun-
tries of Europe are getting into hot
water through their obedience to the
orders to the state department to make
minute reports on the method of prep
aration and of shipment of wine des-
tined for American consumption. The
state department is acting in this mat
ter at the instance of the departments
of agriculture and of commerce and
labor, with view to the enforcement
of the DISQUALIFICATION act.
The American consuls have worked
with surprising results, it is said, for
the extent of the adulteration and doc
toring of foreign export wines never
before had been appreciated. This &C.
ii sity on the part of the consusl has
engendered bitter feeling toward
them by the foreign wine producers
and exporters, and in sonnet instances
they have succeeded in making the
consuls stay at his post unpleasant.
The state department will uphold its
agents to the fullest extent where their
personality does not enter into the op-
position.

SUGGESTIONS INVITED.
Government Representatives Want
Pointers on Land Laws.


Portland, Or, Aug 24.-The open
ing of the second day of the American
Mining congress was devoted to pre-
sentation of the purposes of the COM
mission appointed by the president to
investigate the condition of public
lands and report to the national con-
gress remedies for existing evils and
suggest reforms in the land laws.
+. II. Newell, chief engineer of the
reclamation service. and Clifford Pin
chott, forester of the United States,
were the principal speakers. They
outlined the work they are engaged in
prosecuting. Their visit to the session
is to gain the fullest possible informa-
ton from the mining men of the con-
ditions in the country contiguous to
mining camps throughout the country
and learn what notifications in the
public land laws are considered desir-
able by those engaged in the industry.
To that end the commissioners of
the government will hear as many of
the delegates as possible while in Port
land, and invite mining men through
out the country TO communicate any
statement of fact that may have come
to their notice in the operation of pres
ent laws, conduct of forest reserves, to-
gether with suggestions as to changes
In the existing laws.

SIGNS TELL GIRLS NATURE

Much of girls nature is betrayed by
the little act of brushing speck off a
mans coat If she picks off the thread,
or imaginary bit of lint, very carefully
between the thumb and forefnger, it
is an indisputable sign that she is q
woman Of very practical and executive
character, says the Chicago Journal
On the other hand, if a girl should
brush the coat lapel of her fance very
softly and tenderly with the second and
third finger of her hand in her endeavor
to. remove an invisible speck, it is a
sure sign that she is more sentimental
than practical. The man who marries
her will live in a continual atmosphere
of romance and bad housekeeping.
There is still another type of a girl,
who will brush the speck off mans
coat with a broad sweep of the hand,
in which all the fingers and thumb play
part. She is in all probability an ath-
letic girl, who excels at tennis, golf and
the links, and who will prove a high
spirited, strong-minded woman after
marriage.
Then, again, the girl who puts flow
&c in a mans coat with her hand held

The chief began to look around for

He watched the typewriter beside DR..
Hunts desk, saw the keys as they
clicked under the fingers of the deft
operator and listened to the translation
of the letter the young lady had written.
Hitherto Antonio had proested against
being compelled to learn English. It
looked too much like work to suit his
indolent, comfort-loving nature. But
now he must have typewriter, and in
order to operate one, he must know
English, not merely to initiate the
sounds OF the human voice, but to write
the words, yes and spell them. II An

to America in few years and do mis-

WHO IS MORE cULLlBLE7

Country Cousin in This
Respect,

SIS the man of the country more gu1l1-
bic than the man of the city?" asAed
an observant man, in the New Orleans
Tmes-Democrat. There Is suspicion
that an answer in the affirmative would
fit the case. Yet. it may not be 80.
An interesting experiment has recently
been made, according to a story that
comes out of New York, and the result
seems to have been a little disastrous
According to the story this attempt to
prove that the residents Of the country

sentence for college student employed
Is street car conductor in Brooklyn.
He is said to be member of a we'll
known family in Maine, and was Q
student at Brown university in the class
Of '06.
Financial reverses sustained by the
family compelled him to seek work in
the city, and he became conductor not
long ago. In July a friend Of the con-
ductor residing in Maine received .
letter offering to sell him, at low rates,
counterfeit money made in Mexico.
The Maine man turned the letter over
to the secret service officials and the
conductor soon after was arrested. He
was indicted and has been in Jail since
July. The prisoner explained that the
letter was only joke and an expert
ment in sociology, finally giving the
district attorney his true name, which
he formerly had concealed. Investiga-
ton proved the story to be true, and
when the case came before Federal
Judge Holt the district attorney ex-
planned. The judge ordered the joker's
plea of not guilty to be withdrawn,
entered one OF guilty and then suspend
ed sentence. He warned the student of
sociology, however, to be more careful

PERFECT WOMAN IN JAPAN.
She Must Be in Every Particular ODE
dent to Both Husband
and Parents.

In the Madame, Gala J. Harrison
relates the following japanese folk.
tale as illustrating the native ideal Of
perfect womanhood:
Kesa filled the eighteen require.
ments Of beautiful woman. More
over, she was peerless in character as
well. Before her and her lover-hus-
band. Wataru, life seemingly stretched
a long, happy road. Unfortunately
they fell in debt to Morito, a neigh
boring samurai, whose evil eye fell
upon Kesa and he coveted her with
all his soul. He wished Kesa for his
wife, but while Wataru lived this could
not be with honor. But an enemy's
life was but a small hindrance-Dne
stroke Of the keen samurai's sword
and Kesa could be free. So, Morito
reasoned and pressed this plan upon
Kesa's old mother, who in turn plead
ed with her daughter, till Kesa found
herself between two fires, flial versus
conjugal love and duty.
At last after bitter weeping She con-
sented and plans were laid. On GER
tain night Wataru would return from
a journey and after his bath would
lie down on his own pallet among the
sleeping ones in the family hall.
Morito could easily find him, for his
hair would be wet from the bath.
On the appointed night Morito crept
through the hall, lit only by the
andOn's dim light. He found Wataru's
place; his hair was wet and his face
muffled in the covering. Hastily he
spread down napkin by the pillow,
then with one sharp, swift stroke OF
his sword severed the sleeper's head
Gathering it up in the napkin he fed
There was no pursuit, and when he
had gained his own room in safety he
sat down to gloat over his prize. AS
he turned the head to get a good view
the sight froze him with horror, for it
was the sweet piteous face of Kesa
She had sent her husband far from
harm, cut of her hair and prepared it
to initiate his and meekly lay down to
die that she might be true to both ties
dying, she fulfilled her duties as a /
flial daughter and faithful wife. In |
those stern and cruel times many
women had done excellently, but /
kesa Outshone them all.
