Senator Hay called meeting of

duced from II to 10 per day. The
other bill was to reduce the rate Of

SO SAYS Mr.. CHRISTENSEN IN AN AFFl-
DAVIT.

Quite a sensation was created
yesterday when Senator Niels
Christensen of Beaufort, member
of the dispensary Investigating
committee, submitted an affidavit in
which he preferred a serious cl cl1arge
against. J. S. Farnum. 1t will be
recalled that when Senator Chris
tensen read the communication
few days ago he remarked that it
was somewhat like an !expurgated
edition. He observed the absence
of documents to which he had call
ed attention in his affidavit last
summer.
Yesterday through Senator Hay
and Mr.. J. Fraser Lyon, the follow
ing affidavit was offered to the ST.
preme court:

Strain on Auto Tires,

Which tire Of an automobile wears
out first? Bet you can't tell me-" said
the owner Of a big touring car to a
group in a well-known cafe.
"Of course, you could do it in four
Suesses, but, seriously, did any of you
ever stop to think about it,"
Every one present was more or less
OF an automobile enthusiast, but after
some reflection each admitted that he
couldn't tell with any degree of GER
tainty which particular tire was likely
TO go first
We'll. keep your eyes open," said
the FIST speaker, land you will notice
that in nine cases out of ten. especially
on touring cars, the trouble first be-
gins on the right hind wheel, then the
left hind wheel. while the tire that
wears the longest, as a rule, is on the
left front wheel
THE reason? 1t ought to be clear to
all OF you. The tires on the right 60
first because they get the most wear
Every time you turn out in meeting
another vehicle on the road, it's the
right hand tires that go into the ditch,

Life in Town and Country" recently
published by the Putnams: "A China
man, wearing his finest gown of silk,
called at house where he happened to
disturb rat which was RECALLING itself
out OF jar Of oil standing on a beam
over the door. In its flight the rat
upset the oil upon the visitor. running
his fine raiment. When the host ap-
peared the visitor suppressed his rage
and said: AS ! was entering your hum
bic dwelling. frightened your honor
able rat. and while IL was trying to
escape IL upset your honorable jar OF
oil over my poor and insignificant
clothing. This explains the contempt
