PAINT LAW HELD TO
BE- CONSTITUTIONAL.
5t t.S:NE# !,
North Dakota Wins Litigation
Brought to Test Validity
of Measure.

> Fargo, N. D., Feb. 24.--In a decision
rendered late this afternoon, Judge
Amidon, in the federal court, held that
the state pure paint law is constitus
tional. An application made by the
paint manufacturers for a continuance
pending an appeal was denied and the
state scores complete victory.
The paint law, passed at the last ses-
sion Of the legislature, provides that
paint. containing other Ingredients than
pure inseed oil, pure carbonate Of
lead, oxide Of zinc, turpentine and
Japan dryer, white lead and pure
colors, must be labeled. Paint manu-
facturers brought suit to prevent the
enforcement Of the law and secured a
temporary injunction. It was argued
that the law was unconstitutional be-
cause it Disseminated between paint
manufacturers. It was claimed there
were other pigments as good as those
favored by law, yet the manufacturers
who used them would be required to
use label and thereby subject their
product to the prejudice Of buyers. u
Court Defines the Law.
The court held that to be violation
Of the fourteenth amendment it was
necessary for the law to be an arbi-
trary classification and must not con-
tain legislative discretion. Classification
to be unlawful must be arbitrary and
capricious. The, court further held the
law to be a proper exercise of police
power Of the state and does not impose
burden on one class Of persons greater
than the same burden laid on all
classes; that after passing on the con
stitutionality Of the measure the court
has not the right to pass on the ques,
ton Of weight Of evidence as to what
were best pigments out Of which paint
could be made. :
Regarding the proposal Of pain.
manufacturers to give bond for an ap
peal, providing the injunction was con
tinued, the court ruled that the case
was one Of fraud and that no money
consideration could repair the damage
that might be done in case the law il
not enforced.
The paint business in the entire state
has been at standstiu awaiting tn.

Nobleman s. Matrimonial Club.

Strength was given to the report of
Berger's interest in Castellane by an
attempt on the part Of Rene Wohl-
farth to interest the caterer in a matri-
monial club whose business it was
planned should be the promotion Of
marriages between noblemen and Ameri-
can women Of unlimited means. A
proposition was made to Berger that he
lease to such q club the house and res
taurant at No. 10 West Thirty-second
street, which he was then conducting.
Berger became wroth when the facts Of
the proposed matrimonial club were pub
lished and he lost no time in setting
himself right. u
tfThere came to me among others,
Berger wlote in an open letter, ga GER
tain Rene Wohlfarth, who disclosed a
stupendous scheme to establish mat
rimonial club for foreign noblemen,
and wised to rent the house for that
purpose. 1 know something about for
eign noblemen, and said was perfectly
willing to rent the house provided the
rent was paid in advance. Wohlfarth
was very anxious that I should take
| $4,000 worth Of stock in his club, but ]
declined and that was the last heard
Of him and his scheme.
ssThe only way to deal with noble.
| men is to ask them first for credentials
from their nearest consul and-then you
want to hurry up, telephone or tele.

credentials are really straight, . said

who put him up at the tWaldorf-As-

Boni Had Not . Sou When He
Came in Quest Of an
Heiress.

New York, Feb. 24.-Now that the
Countess de Castellane has come to the
parting Of the ways, where romance
ends and the gods of divorce are en-
rthroned, Newport g cottage colony is re-
calling what determined bit Of bust
ness man Count Boni was. AS one who
fact about his purpose, but if it had not
been for the financial aid which Raoul
Duval, the wine importer, gave him, he
would have cut sorry figure.
A count without money is as badly
off as any other man whose pockets are
empty. A count in society without
money is, indeed, a hopeless case. Count
Boni would have been impossible -
and his heiress quest failure had it
not been for the friendship Of M.
Duval. 7
sWo,ld Have Wooed Miss Fair.
Naturally, Newport was Count Boni s
Mecca, and there, with the credit Of
Duval behind him, he opened his cam
paign in the summer of 1894. This was
not long after Mrs. Hermann Oelrichs
came east. Mrs. Oelrichs' sister, Vir-
GINA, now Mrs. William K. Vanderbilt,
Jr., was then Miss Fair, and the young
man with title made plans to lay
| siege to her heart. He got as far as
| Mrs. Oelrichs' door one day and no
further. He left bunch Of beautiful
La France roses behind him, and later
they were seen scattered on the lawn.
It. was said then that Mrs. Oelrichs
wanted no title for her sister or any
one else in the Fair family.
| Duval and Castellane were insepara.
BILE that summer, and together they
gave one entertainment after another
which attracted attention. = It was al.
ways Duval who paid the bills, and
this made those whose business it was
to provide dinners and dances assume
that 1t would be just as we'll not to be
too free in their dealings with the
count. Notable among the Newport
caterers was Carl Berger, who this sea
son undertook the management OF
the Lakewood hotel. Berger woule
have mono Of Castellane without DIVA
saying that it would be all right. Der

The most important entertainment
given by Duval and Castellane at New

Constipation and Its

Constipation is one of mans worst enemies, and half the bodily ills we sufrer from are a result thereof. Ma ture meant that the bowels should be Kept free and open--that we should have free movement at least once day. Of course, we ourselves are to a large extent responsible for our trou- bles by failure to observe Natures laws. Our habits are irregular, and we eat Improper food with undue haste, and when we find our bowels do not move, have resort to powerful drugs and medicines, which are so drastic in their action that, although they may purge at first, they damage the ten der lining of the stomach and bowels so lar as to leave a worse condition than before. And why take such inju- rtous and expensive drugs when we can obtain from any druggist. much cheaper, a bottle of Natures own rem edy-the famous Mineral Laxative Water-HCNYADI JANOS-bottled at the springs in Hungary: in use nearly half century Che dose. one-half tumblerful, drunk on arising in the
