"If anyone doubts" said Mr.. Reed,
"that the Millers' Association was or.

statement in the articles Of agreement

"This agreement Is dated August
10, 1905, and 1t was only by accident
that copy Of 1t fell into my hands,
as the meetings Of the association are
secret, and the purport of the agree
ment was not intended to be known by

that were tried succeeded in getting q

in the trust going to pieces"

GRACE OF ORIENTAL PEOPLE.

Passing occasionally, going to Jer- usalem with butter and eggs and little jars of leben that showed their thick creamy threats as they were held up to us, were small companies of women in single file. As one blue possession went by. the leader called to us: Why should you ride and we walk Why is your lot better than ours 7" Given the opportunity for leisurely argument we could not by any philosophy have made satisfactory answer. We could only admit the fact as they saw it.. and recognize the universal world plaint of discOntent.
 They carry themselves. these wo- men. like figures on an antique friezc. As they stride along, holding in sure balance on their heads their jars and baskets of hOmely produce, they tread the stormy paths with the grace and largeness of action that we of the De- cident have grown to regard as belong ing only to the age of Praxiteles.
 The men are also admirable in the simplicity of their gestures. the big lines of their attitudes. the swing of their draperies.

 Claims Against Government.

i3 s5Ea7t 1isNstel Impeached For Making Alleged Faise
 Claims Against Government. , WASHINGTON. Jan. Il. - In the ,Swayne impeachment case in the house here the first article as formulated by the majority declares that Judge Charles Swayne on April 20, 1897, at Waco. Tex, presented false claim against the government in the sum of $230, knowing the claim to be false. The copy of the certificate made by Swayne is given. in which he says that for twenty-three days my reasonable expenses were $230.'
 On this account he is charged with a high crime and misdemeanor.
 Article two relates to the charges of $10 day while at Tyler. Tex, when his expenses were less. and alleges that he obtained money from the govern ment by false pretense.
 Article three contains similar charges, but cites another occasion.
 Article four charges Judge Swayne with appropriating to his own use, with out compensation to the owner a car belonging to the Jacksonville, Tampa and Key West Railroad company to transport himself, family and friends from Guyencourt, Del. to Jacksonville, Fla. the railroad at that time being ill the hands of receiver appointed by Swayne. and that as judge he allowed the credit claimed by the receiver on account of necessary expense in operat- ing the road. Judge Swayne, as to this, is charged with an abuse of official power and high misdemeanor.

How to Banish Fog.

The fact is incontrovertible that tho dismal fogs, which do so much to make London a city of Dis at this season oi the year, are perfectly contrellable phenomena. They could be banished by taking thought-that is. by forbiddins factories and the like to emit black smoke, and by inducing the ordinary householder to adopt smoke-consumina grates. Yet in spite of all that they suffer, the London public are content te leave agitation for reform entirely in the hands of small society.-London Black and White.
