SOCKS AS GOOD AS MONEY.
Their Convenient Use in Backwoods
Games of Chance.


Ole Oleson, "lumberjack," walked
into town the other day carrying l.
$50 pairs Of gloves and mittens, 1,175
pairs of socks and eighty-three pounds
of tobacco.
He offered the goods for sale at
about one-fourth of their value and
was arrested on suspicion. He pro
tested to the police that he came into
possession of the goods honestly. When
pressed he declared that he won the
articles at poker In the lumber woods.
Oleson said he had been in the
woods many months. The lumberjacks
received no money while in the woods,
but were expected to walt until they
returned to town for their pay. At the
company store" in the woods the men
could get such articles as they desired,
however, having them charged against
their time. Accordingly the men used
merchandise instead Of checks in their
games.
Oleson said he played in good luck,
and In one game where socks we're the
| stakes, he won LIS pairs Of the hos.
iery on three aces. The other man
held trio Of kings. N
In game for mittens, Oleson said,
the limit was high, and in three hours
of play he had mittens enough to sup
ply regiment of soldiers.
! His story sounded reasonable and
he was released to go and cash in his
checks. Ashland (Wis) Cor. Mime.

Signs of the Times.

Special Cabegram TO The Star.
DUBLIN, November 11.--Speaking at a
meeting of the United irish League at Glen
amaddy, County Galway, Mr.. ]. p. Farrell
MP, said that the people of that district
would not be worth looking for if they did
not make the lot of the eleven months man
and the land-grabber as uncomfortable now
as at any time. They could adopt consti-
tutional means within the law similar to
those methods adopted when EngIishmen
were protecting their rights. They should
give their fullest support to the Irish party
with MIR. Redmond at its head. and should
Fay no attention to anything that was said
that tended to disturb the unity of the
party. He believed that they We're within
hailing distance of a full measure of home
rule for Ireland, although in some places
the liberal affected to ignore the power of
the United Irish League. 1t was all boSh
for the liberals to state that home rule was
not n living issue. Mr. John Fitz Gibbon
also addressed the meeting. He challenged
the police note taker who was present to
note his speech, and when sending il to Mr..
Long to inform him that there would be no
peace in ireland until al of the people were
brought back to the land. They We're pre-
pared to impress this fact upon the govern
ment by all of the forces which were open
to the people.
