Various authorities are quoted from
time to time to the effect that Holsters
are not decreasing in Numbers; but no
one who recalls the days when Holsters
were plentiful will believe them. 1t is
not SO many years ago that clustering
was profitable industry in this vicin-
ity, and there was cannery in Castine
and another in Camden. Where are
those canneries now? and where are
the HOLSTERS now?

THE DRUGGISTS DILEMMA.

The recent ruling of the Commission
er of Internal Revenue that persons
dealing in patent medicines containing
alcohol must pay an internal revenue
tax as retail liquor dealers o.>ated con-
sternation among Maine druggists, as
the payment of this tax is held in this
State as prima facie evidence that the
holder is violating the prohibitory law,
and renders him liable to indictment,
while if they do not pay it they are
likely to be arrested and fined by the
U. 5. authorities. The situation has
cleared somewhat since this announce
ment but some of the druggists are yet
in quandary as to what to do about it,
and rather than take out a Z. S. license
they would discontinue the sale of all
patent medicines to which the ruling Of
the Commissioner applies. a circular
from the press committee of the Pro
pIietary Association says that the rul-
ing of the Commissioner has been
wrongly construed by some as blow
at patent medicines in general, while
as matter of fact it is nothing of the
kind And further: "The Commission
er's ruling will doubtless hit certain
WHISTLES that by reason of their mas
querading as medicines, and copying
the advertising and distributing meth
DDS OF the proprietary medicine manu-
facturers have built up large trade"
1t would of course be interesting to
know What are these certain whis-
kies''; but that, it appears. we may
learn later from an official source. In
reply to a request from the Androscog-
gin county druggists association that
the ruling be suspended until after the
State legislature meets in 1907, so that
law applicable to the situation can
be passed. Commissioner Ierkes wrote
as follows.
"Drucgists and merchants dealing in
medicines are not required to pay spe-
cial tax as retail liquor dealers, even on
and after Dec. l, 1905, the date when
the ruling goes into effect, on account
of their selling in good faith, for medi-
cinal use only. any alcoholic compounds
labeled as medicines which Shall not
have been found by this office, upon
analysis made here of samples submit
ted by the collector, to come within the
ruling. 1t is only those who continue
the sale of such compounds as shall
have been analysed and found to be
within the ruling, after public an
nouncement of this fact, who are re-
quired to pay the special tax therefor"

ferred by James w. Leddy, the local
agent of the company.

nit to arrest and the men employed
on the boat gathered round the Of
ficer and prisoner and tried to pre-
vent the arrest. Finally the officer
was successful in getting the irate

placed in a cell. Recorder Pickers-
gill held him in default of $500 bail.

SOCIABLE A. c..
WINTER PLANS.
Athletic Events to be the Fea-
lure Have An Instructor
from Newark.

AT the meeting of the members of
the Danish Sociable A. G. in the
club house on Park avenue, last
night it was decided to make ath-
letics a pastime for this winter and
to further the idea and to carry out
all of the plans, the club has decided
to offer prizes to the amount of $50
for those who do the best work.
All members are requested to be
at the club house Sunday morning
to get weighed so that an exact rec
ord can be kept of the weight of each
member. Commencing Monday
night, certain members will go in for
bar work, under the directions of an
instructor from Newark. WedICs-
day nights wrestling bouts between
the heavyweights, the lightweights,
and featherweights will take place.
A new idea is the wrestling for the
boys, this will take place every
Thursday night. The club expects a
big turnout every week and that all
will try for the prizes is certain.

SALOONKEEPER FINED.
John W. Van AaIst Did Not GET a
License TransferWhen He Bought.

John w. VanRalst, the saloon
keeper at Is Fayette street, whom
Bob Doane threatened to shoot Mon
day night, was fined $40 by the re-
corder yesterday afternoon on a
charge of violating the excise Or
dinance. He bought the place from
Mike Meyer, the former proprietor,
several weeks ago and has been do
ing business there since, although
he got no transfer from the excise
board.
He denied the statement made by
Charles johnson that he loaned the
latter the revolver with which John
son caused trouble Monday. Van
Aalst declared that the revolver
was stolen from him, but refused to
make any complaint.
VanAalst and Johnson appeared in
court this morning having been
summoned in an effort TO probe
Johnson's statement that the revolt
yer was loaned to him by VanAalst.
Johnson this morning said that he
was so drunk Monday that he did
not know just how he came into pos
session of the weapon, nor did he
know positively to whom it belonged.
VanAalst was firm in his denial and
said that he was not ure whether
the revolver taken from Johnson
was his or not, as he had owned 1t
but a short time and never exam
ined it closely. VanAalst was warn
ed not to sell at the saloon again I'M
til he. procures a license.
The racket of Monday night and
Tuesday morning, between Doane,
Johnson and VanAalst. netted the
city Just sos, all of which vas paid.

FIREMEN OF STATE
To PARADE IN 1906.
Elizabeth to Invite All Volunteer
Departments for an Old
Time Event.

A plan was inaugurated Monday
night, by the Elizabeth Veteran Fire
men to have in that city in October,
1906, an old time firemen's parade
and muster, such as were held there
frequently when the volunteer fire
men held full sway.
All the veteran fire companies of
the State will be invited to Elizabeth
and to take part. Old time appara-
fuses will be in line and it is expect
ed that there will be nearly 1000
red shirts in line. A committee was
appointed for the purpose of devils
ing ways and means for this event
and if the veterans decide to hold it,
every effort will be made to beat all
previous records.
An effort will be made to have ono
or more of the city's paid fire COM
panies in line, and companies in
Plainfield, New Brunswick, Perth
Amboy, Newark, Paterson, Jersey
City, New York, Morristown, Tren-
ton, Asbury Park, and every city
where there is a veterans associa-
ton or an exempt company will be
invited to participate.
Tho object of the proposition is to
give the people of Elizabeth an idea
of what a real firemen's day was in
the old days. None of the details
viii be missing. There will be prizes
offered for the company turning out
the largest number of men, there
will be a prize for the company
coupling hose and getting water"
first, there will be prizes for house
runs and ladder scaling, prizes for
steam tests and for 1ancy drilling.
1t was stated by a member of the
veteran association that between
thirty and forty companies would be
in line if the proposition goes
through.

Herr are some o. thu thing which
hySiens has doHe for The American
woman ant which she has done for
n Siere- she has hanishe, window cur
tains aad earupiss from the beds she
has torn tn carpet. II the foors. 81.
lAs ripped he tapestries from the walls
It the hslrz rguns and she has thrown
iae urhelsferus. furniture out OF the
S-iniews. she viil have few kniek-
snacss around. but she has hanishsd

Swinging dust traps and all the small
articles which gather dust and hold IL.
Ihat : WHY. Il one goes into the

when II comes to the thousand and one
tribes. the photographs. the countless
tiny hric-a-brae. and the little articles
that eiuttered the home a few years ayo.
they are missing to-day.
The very best homes have almost
nothing in the way Of hric-a-brac. They
are furnished with an elegant simpIis-
lty which Is a. beautiful as * Is rare
The elutterinS little articles are not To

neither thick nor heavy. They are
thin. silky affairs. They are light and
easily shaken. anu they are hygienic
20 the last degree. A rug costing 81 .AGO
may be thin. silky. beautiful in texture.
Yet of a kind which viii not gather
germs Many Of the new floor cover.
I ings are absolutely germ proof in that
they can be ciearsed almost rs easily
