Clogs in the North Of England.

At least 1900, 900 pairs of clogs are
sold in the northern counties OF Eng.
land every year. The clog is a
sort of shoe with q wooden sole
(made in one piece) and a leather
top. The sole of the clog is finished
with a set Of "corkers" or 'irons," one
for the heel and another for the front
Of the sole. These irons are about a
quarter Of an inch wide, one-eighth Of
an inch thick, and are made to ft the
shape Of the sole somewhat as a shoe
is fitted to a horses hoof. A good
trade might be built up by American
manufacturers in supplying either
machine made wood soles or the
blocks from which the hand sole
makers shape the finished sole, as
well as in the irons" or ''corkers."

MINORITY HAS A RATE BILL
House Democrats Will Introduce a
Comprehensive Measure at
Todav's Session.

Washington. Jan. 15.-The Democratic
members of the house committee on in
terstate and foreign commerce have pre-
pared a railroad rate bill which will be
introduced tomorrow. The bill is a com
prehensive measure, dealing with all of
the questions involved in the subjects
It's essential difference from what is I'M
derstood to be the majority measure, the
bill of Mr.. Hepburn of Iowa, is that in
stead of using the interstate commerce
commission to fix a maximum rate, ="
in accordance with the specific recon-
mendation of President Roosevelt, the
rate to be fixed shall be a reasonable
one 1t fOrbids the commission increas-
ing any rate which has been fixed and
published as such by any railroad.
Tt authorizes the rate fixed by the COM
mission to be reviewed by the courts only
when it Is shown that such rate does not
enable the carrier to realize fair profit
on the capital actually invested in the
road, or where the commission has ex-
ceeded its power fixing the rate, making
1t cOnfiscatOTy.
The rate. when fixed by the commits
sion, is to become operative within thirty
days, and is not to be set aside except
by order of the court of final resort. The
bin makes no changes either in salary
or in the number of the commission as
now constituted.

a charge Of disturbing the peace, but
during the hearing it developed that he
had beaten his wife. The hearing was
at once postponed and the case investi-
gated further. In his own behalf the
prisoner stated that he was indicated at

the woman.
