Her Little Mistake.

The joke is on Westbrook (Sfe.)
woman who on getting ready to leave
church recently was unable TO find one
of her rubbers, SO she walked home
with one shoe exposed to the wet.
When she arrived home she remarked
to one of her family how heavy the
foot with one rubber felt. This was
explained in part when she attempted
to remove the one overshoe and found
she had both on one foot.

KAWVILLE'S PLAN TO GROW
Kansas City VIII Grant No Saloon
License undI5 Population q.
81. Four Hundred Thousand.

kansas City Mas taken a peculiar method
to increase it's population" said County At
torney Slabaugh Monday. He has just re-
turned from Ibrief Visit to the Missouri
city. 1.-THE city council has passed an Or
dinance providing that the number of sa-
looms shall not be increased until the city
has. by an official census 10000 popula-
ton. After that an additional license may
be granted for each increase of 1000 in
the population. This has the appearance
of throwing out an inducement to the peo-
pie to get out and work for an increase
in the number of Inhabitants.
The ordinance also provides the licenses
can be transferred by the owner and they
may be renewed until there has been a
violation of the law. when the license is
cancelled. AS new licenses cannot be issued
to take the place of those cancelled. they
become very valuable and 1t is believed
saloon keepers will be very careful not to
disobey the law, as the cancellation OF the
license would not only put them out of
business altogether, but would cause a
large financial loss.'
The commercial interests of Kansas City
are also taking considerable interest in a
project to navigate the Missouri river from
Sioux City to the Mississippi and an asso-
citation composed of business men has been
formed for the purpose of securing aid in

Pabst Blue Ribbon Beer Is the superior

KNOCK FOR. BUSINESS LIARS
Plain Case of Cheafins Handled
without Gloves by Missouri
Supreme Court.

Liars In business matters are vitality In
terested in a decision handed down by
the supreme court Of Missouri.

the lie is so absurd that common sense
readily would disclose the false representa-

OF parting the victim from his money he
would not have been deceived. Representa-
ton made with design to cheat is felony.
The case in point was the prosecution by
the state at st. Louis OF Thomas p Reyes,
charged with obtaining money under false
pretenses. He was sentenced to the peni-
Tertiary for two years. July 8. 1906. Reyes
sold twenty shares of the st. Louis Brick
Cement Manufacturing company to William
Perry. q farmer from Michigan, for 5000,
half OF which was paid in cash and the
remainder IN notes and property. He repre-
sented the plant was operated by steam

which turned out sample bricks purported

Perry invested.
Reyes is known ss old offender. He
has been prosecuted In Kansas City and
various other parts OF the state several
times for such schemes. The stock com
pany he purported to represent in st. Louis
had no value whatever, OF the purported
capital OF 5000 some $4,000 was in a
patent OF no value. Keyss is now in the

DREYFUS' COUSIN AS A WAITER
Strange Career of Relative of
French Omcer Now In
Chicago.

Louis Dreyfus, a cousin OF Captain Al
fred Dreyfus, Is employed as head waiter
at the Coliseum in Chicago. The fortunes
Of the Dreyfus family as related by the
Chicagoan, prove that the celebrated pris-
oner of Devils island. II the most unfor.
tunate, is not the only one of his name
to experience strange vlcissltudes
Louis Dreyfus was born and educated in
the town of Mihausen in the province OF
Alsace. where his father was wealthy
manufacturer of cordials. the town was
also the birthplace and home of his more
famous cousin and the two families grew
up side by side until war and fortune or
dained for them widely different fates. Al
fred Dreyfus was early in lie destined for
military career and with that end in
view was entered as a pupil In a French
military school. His cousin and the lat
ter's three brothers were educated along
commercial lines. Then came the war OF
1872 and the province OF Alsace became a
portion of the German empire. The two
families took different sides. Alfred Drey-
fus. as an embryo officer of the French
army. carried the sympathies of his peo-
pie to France. Louis Dreyfus' family
adopted. the eagle Of the conquerer
1t would appear that the dominant trait
of the Dreyfus family was militarism, for
on reaching manhood Louis Dreyfus and
his brothers, Carl and Emil entered the
German army. abandoning the peaceful
commercial career which their father had
planned for them. They soon found that
the bitter and ignorant prejudice which
was at a later. day to martyrise their
French cousin and cause such a foul blot
on the military escutcheon of France. ex-
listed to a far greater extent in the Ger
man army.
THE French people are not naturally
bigoted or narrow minded" Is Louis Drey-
fus' comment. "but In the German army
it is absolutely impossible for Jew to
became an officer. OF course the law Of
fers no objection, but his brother officers
would hound a Hebrew from their ranks.
Recently the son of one of the wealthiest
Jewish bankers In Berlin entered the Ger.
man army as an officer. He was COM
pletel- ostraclzed and treated with SO
much contumely that he was forced to
resign" .
Louis Dreyfus' fourth brother served
with distinction In the Boer army in the
South African campaign and was created
adjutant general. Louis himself finding
German army life far from congenial left

ST PETERSBURG, Aug 1S.-The gov

two constitutional deIpocrats were de-
feated at Samara. es4g
While these results Certainly Indicate a
reaction OF sentiment against the advanced
program OF the constitutional democrats, 1t
should be pointed out that the nobility and
landed propretors have the dominant in
fiuence In zenistvo elections. land the de-
feat of the constitutional democrats prob
ably represents more. their hostility to the
principle OF the forced appropriation of

Landlords Are Uniting.
Nevertheless the important landed inter-

significant symptom of the radical change
