in the neighborhood and the burglars
escaped in wagon driven toward

RUSSIAN TROUBLES CON-
TINlIE

The Tsar has granted the de-
mands of his people for represen-
tative government, but the troubles
seem to increase. The mobs, elated
by their success, still demand more
concessions, and rioting and blood
shed continue IN the principal cities.
The people have now scored a great
victory and should quiet down and
go about their business. Russia
will never again be an absolute
unless the revolutionists
over throw the present government
and establish a new government.
It looks like freedom for the people
Of Russia is at hand and it is to be
loped that they will be patient and
Conservative during these trying

Queer Kansas Weather

Saturday afternoon and night OF
last week, we was visited by quite a
snow storm. 1t came fast and fur
ious, much of it melting but still
when Sunday morning dawned the
ground was nicely covered. The
snow was very damp and stickey
and 1t clung to the leaves on the
trees and many small trees were
bent to the ground while the limbs
on the large naples and other
brittle trees were badly broken.
By Sunday night the snow was
mostly gone. Monday evening
again for short time the snow came
down in great fakes not quite as big
as a mans hand and the air was
Utterly full of them. This soon
turned to rain and the ground was
thoroughly saturated. The clouds
and gloom were finally dispelled
and the weather has beon typical
Kansas weather since.

NEW GLASS PLANT

Subscriptions are now being taken
for new glass plant to be practi-
cally duplicate of the one we now
have. The originators of the scheme
are practical glass men but lack a
few thousand dollars of the requisite
capital.
The citizens of this place are now
given an opportunity for an invest
ment in the shape of stock in this
Enterprise that is very promising. In
addition to being very profitable to
the investor i: will be a fine thing
for the city to have another big
plant located.
The one now in operation is
furnishing employment for $50 men
an influx of $50 more would be
felt and would be very desirable
acquisition. We hope the enter
prise will go through with a rush.

FOUL MURDER

Henry Tomlinson, an Old farmer,
living alone on his farm, four miles
northeast Of Chanute, was fouily
murdered in his own home by a
boy he had taken il and bcfnended,
on Wednesday evening OF last week.
The boys name is Lem Raley,
and he is 10 years old and his
parents live near OFT va. Young

TRUSTS UNDER FREE TRADE

Many of OF our Democratic poll
tICians assert that our Protective
Tariff system has afforded a special
opportunity to American captains
of industry to organized trusts and
combines and thereby increase the
price of their commodities to Amer
ican cor 7umers. Some over-zcaI-
GUS orators, during the heat of
political Campaigning, go SO far as
to say that omr Tariff policy is the
fruitful parent of all such combin
ations. There must be a serious
flaw in the latter accusation. be-
cause we see the people of Free
Trade England IN the grip of Ger
tain industrial combines just as
dominant within their spheres of
action assimiIar or kindred com
bines in this country. Indeed our
tobacco Trust, the American To
bacco company, has not as yet &C
quired the controlling grip upon the
manufacture and sale of its products
that the Imperial Tobacco company
of Great Britain holds IN that
country. The latter swallowed Its
last great competitor, the Messrs.
Ogden, by process of purchase,
within year, and now 1t reigns
supreme throughout Great Britain
The most recently developed
British combine has just occurred in
the C 'ew trade. Formerly,
finn of which Right Hon.
)seph Chamberlain was member
had monoply in the manufacture
of wooden screws which controlled
the price In the home market. But
the Germans succeeded iu breaking
in with cheaper screws and a re
markable revolution took place
The German product was rapidly
supplantlng the English. Prices anc
profits dropped to a very low level
and thus the competition continued
up to last of June, when both Ger
man and British manufacture rs con
cluded to form a combination tt
regulate their spheres of sale ant
the price of screws.
1t has been publicly announced
that the combination inclndes al
the screw manufacturers of both
countries and that uniform price
has been established, meaning al
, advance of about fifty per cent or
the price prevailing for some year:
past. An agreement has also beer
made that no British orders TO,
screws will be filled in Germany q
German orders in Great Britain al
ter Oct. 81 of this years and that al
orders now in hand must be execu-
ted not later than Dec. FL, 1905.
Hown long this curious arrange
ment will hold good depends chiely
upon the secret understanding al
legged to exist among the principa
manufacturers of the respective
countries--one with fiscal policy
of Free-Trade, the other high Pro
lection.

POLICEMEN HAVE SIGNALS
Few People Who Come in Contact
with Minions of Law Realize
System in Use.

1t may be a surprise to many people
to know that unique system of sig
mailing exists among city policemen and,
indeed, one might be brought daily into
contact with guardians of the peace for
many years and still know nothing of it.
Sometimes policeman may be seen to
fold his arms in perfectly natural
manner, but if the observer watches
closely he may see that the index finger
of one or other of his hands is point
ing to some person in the vicinity. This
is his method of indicating to a comrade,
or 1t may be plain clothes detective
that a pickpocket or other suspected
person is near and should be kept un-
der observation. Touching the second
button of the tunic with the right hand
is sign that the inspector is nearing
the spot. The approach of sergeant
is indicated by placing finger on the
armlet.

Tryon did not hesitate. The coveted
fabric was in her possession when she
arrived at home.
What are you going to do with it?"
her husband asked, after he had ad-
lnired the lace in his clumsy way.
There don't seem to be muci to do
with"
Mrs. 1ryon smiled condescendingly.
why, I'll make a waist of it, of
course"
"Of that?" her husband asked, in
astonishment, as he noticed the flimsy
character of the lace
mot exactly, you goose" she replied.
Il mean I'll trim waist with it,"
Huh" responded the husband, "I
guess it isn't such bargain after all
If you've got to buy something more
to go with it,"
WELL" pouted the lady. 81 need a
nice waist, anyway"
A few days later she came home
from a strenuous morning in a silk
department with three yards of waist
material. 1t had cost her SO a yard,
but as she explained to her lord and
provider, II couldn't get anything
cheap that would look well with that
fine lace" For several days she
planned and planned how she would
make up the new waist, and when she
finally made up her mind she called in
her neighbors and had an exhibition of
the goods and a descriptive lecture on
how it was to be transformed into the
dearest waist that ever was. To all of
which the neighboring women agreed
and each showed the proper degree of
envy over the bargain. Shortly after
the women had gone, a carriage drove
up to the Tryon mansion and a styl-
lshly dressed woman alighted. Mrs.
Tryon met her at the door.
"Is this where Mrs. Tryon lives?"
the woman inquired.
81 am Mrs. Tryon."
'Oh, I'm so glad to have found you,"
the visitor went on with sigh of re.

can be Strengthened out now"

thought would be sufficient lace, but

along she discovered we were going to

there was just another yard of the lace
in the store, and ordered them to

several days until the dressmaker
asked me for the lace again, and then

Mrs. Tryon began to be nervous.
