LUMBER TRUST BEATEN
Court Decides That It Is Illegal and
in Restraint of Trade.

San Francisco, June THE circuit
court of appeals handed down a decis-
ion today in the suit brought by Ar
thur S. Ellis against Inman Paulson &
Co., and others, doing business under
the name of the City Retail Lumber
company at Vancouver, Wash. The
defendants had formed a combination
to control the output of lumber from
Washington and Oregon and to fix the
price of the product. The plaintiff
bought from another manufacturer and
then when he sent an order to mem
bers of the City Retail Lumber com
pany he was requested to pay a fine of
$3.50 in addition to the market price of
the lumber and to give his promise
that in the future he would not pur
chase lumber of any firm outside Of
the combination.
This the plaintiff refused to do and
he brought action for damages against
the members of the City Retail Lumber
company. The circuit court decided
that the plaintiff had insufficient
ground for action but on appeal the
higher court ruled today that the com
bination was an illegal one, formed in
restraint of trade and ordered the case
remanded for a new trial.
The court based its opinion on the
decision of the supreme court in the
Northern Securities case.

MACS LUCK
The Young Woman Reporters Story.

The following food tale written by a
clever young newspaper woman is a
true story that came under her per-
sonal observation.
Il have been with the -- Ga paper
in a Calf town. for nine years and
Mac has been with US all that time
and 1 do not know how much longer
Macs full name is Mcclellan. Before
the Linotypes came in he was a good
printer and was one of the first to
learn the machine, and is now, at about
the age of AZ, one of our very fastest
operators.
Last winter and the winter before
Mac, probably from constant night
work and improper food, got badly run
down, could not eat much, what little
and he always complained he could not
keep warm
4 missed him for awhile until yes
terday I overlook him on the street
knew the man; had it not been for the
familiar walk I should surely have
passed without recognizing him. He
was stout, his face was round and rud-
them before.
7 said Mac. I hardly knew you,
what on earth have yeu been doing to
get so fat?' He replied 'Grape-Nuts,
nothing else. I started in on Grape
Nuts food three months ago when I
weighed 126 and was feeling miserable,
but now 1 weigh $50 and feel better
than I ever felt in my life. I quit my
old diet and went on Grape-Nuts and
that's the whole story" Name given
by Postum Co., Battle Creek. Mich.
Exercise is necessary but there's no
nourishment in it and proper food
alone can supply that Grape Nuts for
10 days is a pleasant trial and proves
big things.
There's a reason.

WHOSE PISTOL is IT?
On Answer Depends Solution of Nrys-
terry Surrounding Young's Death.

New York, June 7.-Detectives at
Frank T. Young. which took place. in a
cab here last Saturday. are slowly trac-
ing the history of the revolver which
caused the horseman's death. Around
the ownership of the weapon may re-
volve a solution of the whole affair.
Youngs friends all assert that he new
er carried a pistol and the intimates
of Nan Patterson, who was with Young
of Wea pons. Some progress has been
made in tracing the revolver-enough
to indicate that it may have been pur-
chased in San Francisco. If this should
prove true the owner of the fatal wea-
pom may be identified as four of the
persons directly connected with the
tragedy are well known in San Francis
co.
