C0L0RED TEAS NOT EXCLUDED
New National Food Laws Won't Affect
Importation of Chinese Teas.

On next January list, will go into
effect law which has been causing
CONSERVATION in the ranks of the peo-
pie and the manufacturers. Merchants
and tea drinkers will, therefore, well
come the news that the new pure food
food law will not interfere with the
importation to the United States of the
fragrant colored teas of China and
Japan. 1t has been found that the
law will not effect such importations.
1mportations. according to a promin-
ent dealer who has made an investiga-
tion of the matter, will continue to
be governed by the provisions Of the
tea act Of March 2, 1897. Extensive
tea dealers have been freighting the
mails by a lot of correspondence on
the subject which has been pouring
into Washington asking the secretary
OF the treasury to interpret the lead
ing enactments of the pure food law.
Fear of the continuation of the in
coming floods of tea arose from the
fact that the pure food law aims to
stop authorizations, and it is we'll known
that the natives of China color tea with
various substances, and mark pack
ages with hieroglyphics that are not
accurately descriptive of quality. The
pure food law prohibits the sale of any
article of food which is colored to dis
guise, damaged or inferior quality, but
this, under the Interpretation Of the
law, will not effect tea.

SPRING STYLES FOR SUITS
Manufacturers Are Intent Upon Devot.
ing Specialities for Spring Season.

1t has often been remarked by the
stylish dressed individual that the
young men of this city are afraid to
dress right up to style, and, indeed,
this seems to be the case in the entire
western portions of the country. Cloth
ing statesmen state that the 33-inch
coat is entirely too long for this city
and that even the 81 and 32-inch style
do not go like hot cakes:
Indications from the east by associ-
ated press are to the effect that cloth
ing manufacturers are intent upon de-
voting some specialties for the spring
season in their suit lines. 1t is thought
that the sack coat will be modified by
being cut much shorter than was the
style-.last year, and that In place Of
making the three-button suit the pop
ular number in their ranges the cloth
,iers: will force the two-button coat
to the front. In box coats the longer
lapel is to be revised, and especially,
on high grade worsted and wooden
suits care of every detail in construc-
ton is to be exercised. The clothiers
to the trade and the manufacturing
clothier who sells to the retailer, but
does not advertise to the consumer,
have both to meet the sharp competi-
ton of the latter class of manufac-
turers. During the last year or so
they have popularized certain styles
which they originated and controlled,
and it interfered seriously with the
movement of the general lines of goods
in the retailers hands. 1t is the effort
of the general clothing manufacturer
this year for spring and summer goods
to make their lines as fashionable in
cut and finish as the best products of
the advertising clothiers.

Governor Sarles will appoint the
successor of Judge Fisk in the First
judicial district. Under the law the
members of the supreme court assume
the duties of Office on the first Mon
day In December, and Immediately
upon this act, the vacancy in the dis
trict bench occurs and the appoint-
ment will be made by Governor Sarles,
1t is said that number of the local
attorneys have their lightning rods ND
and that already pressure is being
brought to bear in ne interest of a
number of the aspirants. One of the
unconf1rmed rumors is that Guy C. H,
Corliss would like to have the place
while another is that Bardi G. Skula-
son. who was chairman of the Fisk
campaign committee, is seeking the
place. No attempt has been made to
verify these statements and they are
given as rumors and not as facts. 1t
is evident that there will be a scram-
Bile among those who have contributed
to the saving Of the democratic party
for the spoils of Office. Governor
Sarles has given no indication of what
his action would be. and it is probable
that he will not do so until the
vacancy occurs. -

Grand Forks lovers of football will
have an opportunity of witnessing
what will probably be the best game
Of the season played in this city. on
the coming Saturday afternoon when
the Fargo and Grand Forks high
schools will contest for the state high
school championship. Neither team
has met defeat SO far this season in
games with high school organizations,
and both are known to be exceptional
ly strong.
The game will be called at 3:15 p. m.
at the state university football field,
and will be played under state univer-
sity auspices.
The two elevens average up about
the same weight and both having had
superior coaching, it stands to reason
that the struggle will be one of the
fiercest ever seen in this city by and
between high school teams. Fargo
will send up bunch of rooters to
whoop her up for the Cass county ag-
gregation, and 1t goes without saying
that the ardents in this city will not
be conspicuous by their absence.
The usual admission prices will be
charged. Street cars will be run be-
tween the city and the university in
sufficient number to accommodate the
crowd that is expected to attend.

ARE WARNED OF A SW|NDLE
Local Men Receive Word to Watch for
Smooth Individual Who Works
o New Game.

Secretary w. G. Macfadden of the
North Dakota Bankers association has
just been advised of the latest sWindle
In the banking business, and he Is
sending out notices to the North Da-
kota bankers who belong to the mem
bership. Incidently, it may be- mem
toned that Of the recent IL bank rob-
berries in this state and immediate Vi
cinity, only three were members of the
association and these were fully pro-
tected by insurance.
A copy of one of the warnings re-
ceived by local banker today, read
as follows:
"A swindler going by the name of
Spicer went to an attorney at one
town and told him he lived on a farm
between two other towns not far dis
tant and said a farmer near where he
lived owed him $40. He desired the
attorney to notify the farmer to pay
this account at once or suit would be
brought. The attorney, being we'll ac-
quainted with the farmer he referred
to, notified him as requested, and by
return mail the following day received
long reply to his letter and also a
check signed with the farmers name,
drawn on a bank near town in
which he lived, amounting to $170 The
same day that the attorney received
the letter and check, the man Spicer
again called and the attorney paid him
the full amount of the check, less his
own charges, and sent the farmer a
receipt. AS soon as the farmer re-
ceived the receipt, he informed his
bank that he had issued no such check
and instructed them not to pay 1t II
presented. 1t develops the swiniler
or confederates had watched for the
delivery of the letter from the attor-
ney to the farmer and had distracted
it from the farmers rural delivery mail
box, answered it, and enclosed the
forged check. The swindler then took
the same train that the mail went on
and thus was able to call upon the
attorney shortly after the letter was
received. The man Spicer is described
as follows: About five feet eight inch
es high, and the main feature whereby
he can be identified is that when he
talks his front teeth show and one
front tooth overlaps the otter.''
