NlAUDE JONES
COMES IN FOR NoToRiETY ONCE
MORE-SHE VISITED THE
ROOM HER LOVER THIS
MORNING.

Maude Jones, she OF suicide tame
did a village cut-up act to-day noon,
which came near resulting in her in
carceration on disorderly charge
People who saw her this morning
say that she was drinking some, which
may account for her actions, whlle
Others say she isn't right.
Just after dinner she entered local
hotel unobserved by the proprietor or
clerk, and proceeded to the room oc'
cupied by her one time lover. In
her efforts to convince him that she
is his proper mate and that tempo
raj happiness for him consists of Legal
cohabitation with her, she cursed anu
yelled and shrieked until all efforts
to quiet her were futile, and at that
stage of the game Chief Morgan and
Assistant BarthoIow were called in.
Even their presence was unavailing.
Chief Morgan then asked the proprie-
tor if he desired her taken away
but the landlord thought she could
be cuieted without such stringent
methods and proceeded, with the help
of the female force of the hostelry, to
soothe her wounded feelings.
This course proved to be the correct
one. and Maude soon came back TO
earth.

claimed that Tony is pretty good
sort of a man and that one OF his
neighbors got angry with him and
had him arrested. Now it may be SO
that he did sell intoxicants but SO
long as he confines his trade to his
fellow countrymen and does not ere
ate disturbance, not much can be
done with him. This&tinae,h however
he was arrested. The defendant
had secured the services Of Attorney
Kirby and Attorney Morgan was there
for the State, but after considerable
jabbering among these imports from
the Mediterranean, the prosecuting
witness asked to withdraw the COM

but as soon as the amount was an

TRADE REVIEW.
Industrial Troubles and Conditions in
Wheat Market Have Dis
couraging Effect.

New York, Aug. 20.-R. G. Dun &
Co.'s Weekly Review of Trade says:
confidence in continued Improvement
of trade has been somewhat unsettled
by sensational events in the wheat
market and the lack of harmony be-
tween capital and labor. 1t is becom-
ing evident that estimates of the wheat
crop must be reduced, although other
agricultural news is much better than
usual. In so far as the purchasing
power of the farmer is concerned.
prices have risen so sharply that any
loss in quantity promises to be made
up. but this obvious fact is not appre-
ciated by those dealers who are maxi
ing less preparation for future trade.
Some disappointment is also felt by
those who counted upon an early re-
sumption Of activity in building opera
lions and other industries hampered by
labor controversies. Otherwise, news
Of the week has contained much of an
encouraging nature. In several man
lines there is less idle ma
chinery. and visiting retail buyers have
stimulated jobbing trade, especially in
dry goods and kindred lines.
Failures this week numbered 226
in the United States against 23s last
year, and "a in Canada compared with
eight q year ago" -

liams, Of Indiana, made the speech Of
ficially notifying Mr.. Watson of his Sc
lection. After formal notice that he
would soon prepare formal letter of
acceptance, Mr.. Watson gave up great
portion of his address to discussion of
the democratic and republican platforms
and the candidacy of Judge Parker. He
referred to the democratic candidates
gold telegram as follows:
Surrounded by the Wall street mag
mates who had financed his campaign
for two years. Judge Parker bided his
time till the perils of the two-t thirds rule
were passed; and when 1t was too late
for the convention to retrace its steps
for even the democratic bosses require
more than Is minutes to turn complete
ly round in-he cracks the Wall street
whip over the heads of his leaders, and
with prompt obedience that great demo-
cratic legions were made to furl their
flags and reverse their line of march"
Mr.. Watson discussed the various
planks in the platform of the republican
and democratic parties, and said the
two platforms were almost identical.
Boiled down to its real essence, sifted
to its real meaning, the democratic CAM
paign of 1904 is mere Inscriptions
