1t is currently reported that Mr.. J.
Pierpont Morgan has acquired for 1.200,-
600 the collection of furniture, arms,
brasses, chimney pieces and pictures as
sembled by Jules Van den. Poreboom,
which is installed in a sixteenth century
house at Anderlecht, replica OF which is
to be erected In this country for their
housing. If this be true, 1t Is very prob
able, however, that Mr.. Morgan will. keep
these treasures abroad until the duty on
art is abolished. At least the. knowledge
that for this reason some of his choicest
possessions are kept in England would
lead to this belief.

WATERFOWL, N. Y, has just held success
fully another competitive exhibition, The
plan is novel and the result good. A fairly
representative collection OF paintings is
gotten together and placed on view in a
public hall. Ten cents is charged for ad
mission and each ticket entities the holder
to a vote for the picture which he or she
thinks most desirable as a permanent pos
session for the Municipal Art Gallery.
This might involve risk but, as some one
has said If all the pictures are good no
great mistake can be made. Certainly in
a small town it gives zest to the enterprise.
Nearly 5000 votes were cast this year and
the picture purchased was "A June Even
Ing" by F. X. NJ. REIN.
The Worcester Art Museum, which has

As a result of an official visit to
the city by o. P. Hoff, state commits
sioncr of labor, young ladies working
in stores will here after have easier
hours on Saturdays.
Under the state law passed at the
| last session of the legislature 1t Is
illegal for any employer of female
labor to require his employees to
work more than 10 hours per day.
This law has been disregarded here
on Saturdays through the fact that
the stores remain open during the
evenings; though on other days the
o'clock closing rule is observed. In
order to comply with the law mer-
chants will either have to excuse their
women clerks Cor working in the
evening or else have them commence
at later hour on Saturday mornings.
Two local restaurants were also
found here yesterday in which the 10
! hour limit was being exceeded.
According to Commissioner Hoff all
of those on whom he called and re-
quested reforms declared themselves
willing to comply and promised to ar
range the working hours accordingly,
and freely gave all information re-
quested.
1.-THE 10 hour law for female em-
ployees was passed at the instance of
club women in Portland" said Mr..
Hoff last evening. 1t was meant to
bring about better conditions in Port
land and the law really has little
bearing on the remainder of the
state. But to enforce it in Portland
we must also inforce it throughout
the remainder of the state. Being a
law it is my duty as labor commits
sioner to see that it is observed"

writes, to his readers on the earliest

Of the old-time flavor yet pregnant

The home paper rallies at all times
the support of the community

The home paper keeps you In touch
9th your neighbors and the outside
world and furnishes an indissoluble
link with distant friends.
1t is most charitable toward your
f4ilings and short comings and indul-
gent to your virtues.
Your community is judged by your

literally with advertising and en-

reaching all the time for the trade
which rightfully and under fair con-

II you lose this trade, 1t will partly
be because you allow it to slip away
by not continually calling the atten-

You may think that you can bolster

Foxy Ford.

Another one of Contractor Fofd's 3
cute tricks was discovered this week,
and the Importance OF 1t will be more
fully realized when it comes to max
ing final payment on the contract.
For some time it had been impOssi-
BILE to get anything like normal pres
sure In town unless everyone Of the
blow-otfs were closed, and as there
was an apparent shortage OF water
an Investigation of the main line was
finally deemed necessary. Marshal
Montgomery suspected that the cut
off valve at Ad Smiths place, some
three miles up the river, was not as
it should be Judging from the sound
issuing from it as the water passed
through. Clay broke the lock to the
box covering the valve and discov-
cred that the opening was two-thirds
closed. He at ONCE opened it up to
its limit, and the difference it made
was at once apparent.
According to the contract thirty
day test of the line was to be made
by the town, and the thirty days
have long since expired. With only
partial pressure on the mains the
work of stopping the leaks has kept
from one to three men busy for over
two months past, and now that full
pressure is OH the chances for getting
the line in good running order before
cold weather sets in Is not very
promising, as innumerable new leaks
are daily showing up.
