"sUMPTUARY" LAWS
Statutes Regulating Expenditures for
Dress, Ornament and Food.

From N. Hudson AInore's THE Baby's Cap in
February st. Nicholas.
While we may pick and choose and do exactly
rs we please about our clothes. there have been.
in times gone by. i'll many countries. and even
in orr OWL what We're. known as s'sumptuary.
laws - These laws regulated expenditure for
dress. for ornament, for food, or for whatever
refreshments you might give company when they
came to take tea.
Among the first of these sumpt,iary laws was
.snppian law 1t declared that no woman
should possess more than half an. ounce of gold.
Wear dress of different colors, or ride in a
vehicle in the city. or within mile Of it ex-
cspt on occasions Of public religious ceremonies.
This law lasted only twenty years
Z Italy and France are the countries where most
OF these laws have been passed and some of them
read very strangely. In 1880 in Italy no woman
on it: she could only have them embroidered. And
in 13tS, in the same country. neither dark green
nor. black dresses were allowed TO be worn in the
morning.

", But, like other divisions,
" it's courses OF study in
clude many courses COM
mon to widely different
schools. There are special depart
ments of mining and Of metallurgy in
the school of mines: yet students that
would discover new Klondikes, would
found greater Johannisburgs. and
would accept the income of the future
Mackays, the Days, the Clarkes, the
Lucky" Baldwins, and the still more
lucky Beits-these students must be
instructed by the departments of
of electrical engineering, of mechan-
cal engineering, of drawing and Of
physics.
Metallurgy introduces the mining
student into one of the most important
of the university laboratories. Here
two complete stamp mills, concen-
traitor, a roasting furnace and much
other valuable machinery, reproduce
nearly all the practical illustrations of
d miniature Butte. The complete test
ing works of this laboratory acquaint
the student with the principal typical
machines used in the great ore DRESS
ing" establishments of the country.
Every student operates, in turn, all
the machines, with sufficiently large
amounts Of material to determine the
best methods for extracting from a
given ore the largest amount of metal
with the least possible loss

parker's Nan ior Second Place.

Ex-senator Harris, whom
Judge Parker of New York hopes,
according to reports, to have
nominated with him on the Demo-
cratic national ticket, is a farmer
and stock raiser, being one Of the
worlds leading authorities on
high bred shorthorns. He is a
native Of Virginia and 63 years
old. In the civil war he was AS
sistant Adjutant General of Will
cox's brigade in the Confederate
Army. He was elected, as apop-
ulist endorsed by the Democrats,
to the Fifty third Congress. In
1897 he was elected to the United
States Senate by the combined
Democratic and Populist strength
and served until 1903. Senator
Harris is speaker and writer of
ability, and man Of the highest
character. Judge Parker is said
to admire Senator Harris as a
man and to have expressed great
confidence in the Kansan's avail .
ability as national candidate.
The former Senator is a real far
mer, an educated man Of affairs,
a typical Westerner Of Southern
birth, one of tho most popular Of
Democrats among the Populists,
and yet we'll balanced and con-
servative business man. These
attributes have attracted the at
tention Of the Parker advisers.

before the House Committee on
Labor to-day, said that the ex-

The Bishop was giving his view
on the Foss bill to create nali-
onal arbitration tribunal to settle
differences between labor and
capital.
"Strikes are a great evil, "
he said. "The men are out for
six months or so, and when they
