division. Finally a technical verdict of
IS cents and S19031 in costs was given
at Malone against LamOra and it came
his turn to appeal. Recently at Albany
the appellate division affirmed the judg-
ment and Lamora is now completely
beaten. The Rockefeller preserve in

by the Standard Oil magnate several
years ago.
According to the Queensborough IL
brary board President Roosevelt and
his biographer, Jacob Riis, are not
sufficiently distinguished to have their
portraits adorn the walls of the new
library on Richmond hill. The reason
is that the Queensborough board has
decided that none but dead ones" shall
be SO hOnored. Small pictures of Mr..
Roosevelt and Richmond hills only au-
thor of national reputation have for
several years hung upon the walls of
the old public library and it was sug
gested to Mr.. Ris, who was one of the
first trustees, that larger and more
ornate portraits be substituted for the
small ones. Mr.. Riis wrote to the board
offering to give the new library two
nearly life size photographs of the Presi-
dent and himself taken a year ago at
Oyster Bay. They We're rejected be-
cause the board did mot wish to estab-
lish the precedent of hanging the por-
trait of 9. living person in any library
buildings"
Albert Hausmann. n furrier of Cleye-
land, arrived on the Hamburg-American
liner Butcher and forgot all about tell
ing the customs officers that he was
bringing back with him several hundred
dollars worth of mink boas and muffs.
Mr.. t1ausmann was accompanied by his
wife, two daughters and son. The
deputy collectors saw them coming down
the gang plank and thought the young
women were a trite too stout and an
Investigation began. A woman inspector
found the clothing of the young women
literally lined with mink boas, with a
muff here and there to relieve the
monotony. Hausmann was asked to
make trip to the ship. In the lining
of his trousers the customs officers found
more boas and muffs, and when the
Ohioan disembarked he was a lot thin
ner. Then the customs agents went
through the Hausmann baggage. In the
lining of dresses and other articles of
apparel they found many more bOas and
muffs. When the search was all over
the United States government owned
somewhere between $500 and 800 worth
of brand new mink furs.

LONG TRIP FOR A BOAT.
Steamer Chequamegon Going from
Milwaukee to San Diego.
CAPTAIN TELLS HOW.
Master of the Craft Has No Doubt of
Her Ability to Ride Ocean
Waves.

Seventeen thousand miles.
That is long voyage for a small boat.
but it is the journey that will be under
taken in September by the little steamer
ChequamegOn, which for the last two
summers has piled between Milwaukee
and the Whitefish Bay resort. And
Capt. c. C. Fowler, commander of the
staunch little vessel. says he will make
the trip in the finest kind of shape and
will be ready for active service when she
reaches San Diego, Cal, the objective
point of the cruise.
Captain an Interesting Personality.
Capt. Fowler himself is an interesting
personality. A young man, hardly 80,
he has been on the lakes since bOyhOod,
and holds an unlimited masters com
mission on all fresh water. By the time
he completes the long cruise he has in
contemplation he will be able to secure
a masters commission on salt water
also, and will continue in command of
the Chequamegon in its new home.
For the little boat will never return to
Milwaukee. Arriving at San Diego, her
owner, Louis \. Cartier of Ludington,
Mich, will engage in business i'll San
Diego, and the vessel will become a
part of the merchant marine of the Pa
cite coast.
Capt Fowler has his plans all ready
for the voyage and tells about them
tersely and clearly, as he leans over Il
chart in his tiny cabin on the Chequame-
gon, on which the journey is marked
out.
Start Early in September.
1--WE expect to leave Milwaukee early
in September. as soon as the present sea
son Closes he says. ION the boat will
be Mr.. Cartier, the owner, and about
twenty guests. We will go from here
TO New York via the St Lawrence
river. the Gulf of st. Lawrence and
along the Atlantic coast. If the party
desire it they will accompany us as far
as Tampa, Fla. There, however, the
pleasure trip will end, and the rest Of
the voyage will be made by Mr.. Cartier,
myself and crew of thirteen men.
The Several Stops,
Leaving Tampa we will stop at the
BermudaS, Barbados, Pernam buco.
Montevideo, Puenta Ayres. Port Lebu.
Port Yanez, Lota Anchorage, Nalparai-
so. Callao, Acapulco and San Diego.
The journey will take about four months
and will cover about 1900 miles.
Instead of going clear down around
Cape Horn, as the Old-time sailing yes
sells used 70 do, we will so through the
Straits of Magellan. The passage
around the Horn Is dangerous and diff
cult and by going through the straits
We can save many miles of travel And
we will not go directly through the Ma
gellan straits. We will sail up what
is called Smyth's channel through some
OF the finest scenery iii the world. coming
OUT into the Pacific ocean nearly 1000
miles north of the west entrance to the
straits. Smyth's channel is laG5-iocked

GRAIN PILED ON GROUND!
NORTH DAKOTA FARMERS UNA;
& BILE TO MARKET CROPS BE-
CAUSE OF CAR SHORTAGE.

g North Dakota farmers are unable
to market their crop, and North Da-
3kota merchants are unable to secure
merchandise for the fall trade because
of the freightcar shortage - So saws
IS. G: Miller Of Balfour, n. D., a drug
gist Of that city.
y "Two-t thirds Of the time it is impos-
;sible to get any cars for the handling
of freight, - says Mr.. Miller. "Farm.
ers are storing their grain in sacks in
barns, sheds, and even piled up on the
ground. Fortunately, the weather of
late has been ideal, and there have
been no heavy rains, or great loss
would have resulted to such portion of
the crop as is unprotected from the
elements. All the elevators along the
500 and Great Northern lines have
been full for some time and refuse to
take a sack more of grain. This CON
dltion of things has existed for two
or three weeks.

HIDES COME FROM AFAR
Scarcity in This Country Brings Ship
ments from Foreign Lands.

Scarcity Of hides in this country, ac-
counting for the unusually high prices
quoted for the raw article, is noticeable
in the freight offices. The 500 line has
four tanneries on the system. Two are
fitted for tanning dry hides and two
are designed especially for taking care
of wet Nhides.. The fact that all four
of the institutions are now tanning
hides indiscriminately shows that the
supply is not sufficient to take care of
the output in, either class; One tan
merry on the line has 10000 dry hides
on the wav from South America, routed
by the 500 from the seaboard, and is
buying green hides in Sydney, Austria
LA. 1nasmuch as the drawback on
leather from hides imported from Brit
ish possessions is 80 per cent, it is prob
able that much of the output will go
to British ports, altho the benefit ac-
crues to the American industry OF be-
ing able to continue operation, not
withstanding the shortage in American
raw material, and to American roads
in the haul.
According to G. G. Conn, general
freight agent of the 500 line, one of its
large tannery patrons uses about 1900
hides in three days. This is three aver
age carloads. The ordinary cowhide
weighs fifty pounds, making $4,000
pounds to the 1000 hides. The hide
scarcity is said to date back TO the
packers strike Of last year, when pro
duction. Of raw material got behind con
sumption. To keep the tanneries run
ming it is still necessary to bring IL
the hides Of foreign cattle. = !.
