THE LATEST NEWS
FROM THE FAR EAST

Few people are better known through
out Persia and the eastern world than
Mr.. Ald-el-Kerlem, our rug buyer. A
few months ago he visited a village near
Iran, Persia, whose people have a ma
tional reputation for their handicraft in
weaving the highest grades of Persian
rugs. These villagers were hard pressed
for daily necessities on account of war
ring influences and the trading caravans,
therefore he was fortunate enough to Sc
cure the handsomest assortment of rugs
ever created by human hands at frac-
ton more than 80 cents on the dollar.
This shipment has arrived and will be
on exhibition Monday August T. Don't
miss this opportunity to be original and
have some artistic rugs, Of which there
are no duplicates In design nor In price,
as these goods were bought at starvation
prices. Very respectfully,
ORIENTAL ART STORE,

Bell phone, 1880,
p H.--We have succeeded in securing
the services for limited time Of Mr. A
Abdelnour. an expert rug cleaner and re-
pairer.

Interest IN. Baseball Losing
Everywhere.

President Charlie Brown, of the
X. I. r. league. stated this morning
that he did not think the Kitty
league would last longer than Sun
day, but that II had money and was
not financially embarrassed and
could pay all debts and have money
left.
The teams have all paid into the
league their share of funds and { .
league stands ready to meet all OBJ
legations. Tn fact that patronage Is
falling off is true not only in the
minor leagues but in the National
and American and other big leagues
as well. There seems to be general
inclination to quit, not only on the
part of Princeton but Cairo. too.
There will probably be full meet
ing of the league at Cairo tomorrow
and the fate of the league will then
be decided.

THE GIANT A GENTLEMAN.

Burlington Hawk Eye.-Big Uncle
Sam ought to have the entire conf
dence and good will of his southern
neighbors. He could easily overrun
any or all Of them and annex Central
America, Mexico, Cuba and all the
Spanish American country. But he
has no desire to do SO, and is very
careful of the susceptibilities and jeal-
ousies of his southern friends. Cuba
was freed and set up as an independ-
ent nation; Venezuela-now so un-
grateful and forgetful-was protected
from British aggression, and between
Mexico and the United States the
strongest ties of good will and COM
mercial intercourse exist.
Mexico has just lost by death, at
Washington, her ambassador to the
United States. The cruiser Columbia

Every honor will be paid the late am

ton of the great republic to it's sister
republics is irreproachable in spirit
and in character. A giant can be a
gentleman.

THE TRUST INQUIRY.

The manner in which the federal
grand jury investigation is being con-
Quoted in Chicago, for the purpose of
securing all the facts in connection
with the conduct of the big packing
plants which are accused of being
members of the "beef trust is en-
couraging to all Americans who want
to see the law obeyed The grand jury
has taken up the work in a business
like way and no trouble is being
spared to bring about the result that
the country desires. An indictment
has already been returned against the
superintendent of one of the largest
plants, charging him with interfering
with the investigation by attempting
to influence witness to testify in
favor of the meat packing companies.
1t is claimed by the authorities who
are conducting the investigation that
there is enough evidence to convict
the members of the alleged trust of
guilt under the provisions of the Sher-
man antitrust law. This would mean
That they have controlled the market
OF cattle and Of fresh meat for their
own profit. If proven guilty the heads
OF the large packing companies may
be fined and imprisoned. While few
are so bitter as to want to see these
men thrown into prison there are
many who believe them guilty of deals
aimed at the restraint of trade and
who believe that they should be fined
for such criminal actions and that the
public rhould be assured that recur-
renee need not be feared.
