'Look out for absinthe in bonbons, :"
says a Philadelphia candy dealer.
"They are on the market and they are
loaded. / doubt If any are on sale as
yet in this city, but they have been
offered to us and / have seen samples
Of them. I have no doubt they will
soon be seen here It's likely that
their stay will be short, however, for
the authorities and the temperance
people will surely be after them.
-Four Of the kind Of bonbons that were
sent to us would make a pretty stiff
drink of absinthe, and an innocent
customer might get laid out cold be-
fore he knew it. Those sent to us
were from Europe, where, ! under
stand, their manufacture mas resulted
from certain restrictive legislation
concerning the sale Of alcohol"

Steps have been taken by the Indus
Canadian workingmen under the BAN

That there is a healthy revival Of
trade union activity all over the coun-

months of this year 121 charters were
issued, as against 81 during the same
period Of last year.

is said. by organizing Mexican unions
in Arizona and New Mexico. and TAX

The experiment is being witnessed
by Vernon NJ. Pierce, chief engineer of
highways of the United States office
of public roads. who is watching for
all new ideas, and 1t is also being wit
messed by experts sent here from other
cities. The new method consists in
putting on a coat of hot tar and over
that light busting of stone screen

been thoroughly swept. The hot tar
Is put on and continuously broomed SO

which the screenings will be applied
Traffic is kept off the highway for at
least "a hours.
The object Of this is to do away with
oil in making dustless pavement, also
to assist in preserving the surface of

tried in the city of New York and great
results are predicted for the method.

NOT so BLACK
AS REPORTED

Chicago. June 15.--After a visit of
inspection to the stock yards and
packing establishments of this city. the
committee OF the National Association
of Manufacturers. consisting of Presi-
dent j. w. Nancleave, st. Louis, presi-
dent of the association; II. Nj. Parry
eN-president of the association, Indi-
annapolis; Elliott Durand, Chicago
vice president of Illinois, expect to
submit their report to the public to-
day.
The committee, however, in summing
up its report. says that the reports
which have gone out regarding the
packing establishments have been
grossly exaggerated and that great
injustice has been done as well as an
irreparabe damage to the greatest
industry of the country. Also, that
while many details of trivial nature
might be improved upon. the general
conditions, involving sanitation, gen.
eral cleanliness and production of
wholesome food are far better than
the average hotel Kitchen or even the
kitchens of a large percentage of the
private residences and greatly superior
to conditions found in a large percent
age of the smaller markets in the city
and country.
THE sanitary conditions Of the
workmen in the summer time while
not perfect. are all that could be ex-
pected where so many are congregated
in close proximity"

LONG island OFFICIALS
TACKLE DUST PROBLEM

New York, June 15.-During the
winter when mud. ice and snow are
road problems which the motorist has
10 endure. owing to the Anticipated
methods of construction which are
wholly unsuitable to the demands of
the fast-moving auto-car, the dust
nuisance is forgotten But the return
OF warm, dry weather and the touring
season brings it forcibly to mind again.
1t is true that modern road building
practice can produce dustless road
Tor motor cars if horses, with their
filthy weddings. which every passing
breeze spreads about, are kept off these
ROADS. The time for this millennium has
not yet arrived. although there are
signs of 1t on the horizon, caused by
the practical advent of the motor BUSH
ness wagon. When this time comes
the horse will be banished from our
urban business streets, and used for
roads.
Meanwhile. until this comes. some
thing must be done on the roads we
have to allay the dust nuisance. Crude
oil has been tried with success in out
lying districts. but it's odor, it's ad-
hesiveness to pedestrians shoes. who
track it into houses, thereby running
rugs and carpets. makes it objectiona-
BILE. Nearly all the motoring traffic
goes through Long Island, and espe-
cially that which goes toward the Van
derbilt course in Nassau county, and
the north shore of the island crosses
Thirty-fourth street ferry. Hence it is
interesting to note the use Of a method
which, while 1t is common abroad is
new here. This new method Of dust
prevention is being carried out by En-
gineer Skene, of the department of city
works on Thomson avenue. from Jack
son avenue to Hoffman boulevard.

date originally fixed for the opening
OF the Shoshone Indian reservation In
Wyoming, but, az announced some time
since, the government has deemed It
advisable to postpone the opening for
two months The decision to defer the
opening was due chiefly to the fact
that railroad accommodations to the

Mr.. Bryan's boom was omitted from
the American and Examiner. not be-
cause they were ''scooped." The pa
pers had the news, but 1t was barred.
It il said, from their columns by an
order direct from w. r. Hearst. who
had instructed his editors that Mr..
Bryan's name should not appear In his
newspapers under any circumstances,
THAT such an order should be is
sued and persisted in despite the huge
proportions Of the Bryan wave that IL
sweeping through the party Is causing
much comment 1t Is supposed that
Mr.. Hearst sees In Mr.. Bryan's popu-
larity an obstacle to the ambition on
which he spent so much money In 1904,
end that ne hopes. by keeping Bryan's
name out of the Hearst newspapers, to
doom the Nebraskan to obscurity.'
In the newspaper world the fact Is
recognized that newspaper man can
not become a candidate for office with
out embarrassment. 1t is so well es-
( tablished that such men seldom put
themselves forward for official posit-
ion. They realize they cannot advo-
cate their own cause, and they further
realize that their papers would be
likely to be warped in such a manner
that tn ey would no longer perform
their duty to their readers properly.
II the statement respecting Hearst
10 true. It serves al an illustration Of
the force Of the point raised. He IL 9
