A REAL sTRAPHANeER.
Chicago Judge Finds One Arm Longer
Than the Other.

John c. Scovel, municipal court
Judge, is a real straphanger, and can
prove it, says the Chicago Record
Herald. The other day he was meas.
ured for a coat at tailors. When
the garment was delivered he thought
that the sleeves did not seem just
right and compared them. One proved
to be an inch longer than the other.
Indignant, the judge took the coat
back to the tailor without even try
ing 1t on and asked him what he
meant by turning out such a piece
of work. To his surprise his tailor
was not at all abashed, but merely
smiled.
"Just try 1t on. and we'll look at it.
sajd the tailor.
The Judge did so and to his aston
ishment the sleeves extended to the
same place on each hand and seemed
to be faultless as to length.
you do a good deal of riding on the
street cars, don't you?" said the wise
maker of the garment.
Judge Scovel admitted that each
morning and evening he had for years
been obliged to make a long, wearl
some journey on North side surface
line.
"You have probably never noticed
IT," replied the tailor, "but hanging
on to a strap has made your right arm
somewhat longer than the other.
continually have straphanging Gus
toners, and so have become careful
in measuring the arms and making
each sleeve according to the length
of the arm"
Judge Scovel took the coat without
any further complaint.

HELD CONVERSATION
WITH THE ALMIGHTY

Alliance, o.. June 20.-While talk
ing at the gift of tongues" camp
meeting today, Rev. Levi Lupton sud
denly turned pale and apparently
fell into trance, from which he did
not awaken for three hours. Then
he told the faithful who gathered
about him that he had talked with
God
Lupton said he had wandered
through foreign lands and viewed the
sinners who would be lost unless
saved by pentecost. In his trance,
he claimed to have suffered all the
tortures that Christ did on the cross,
felt the pain from the nails as they
were driven through his hands and
heard the blood trlckling from the
wounds.

Hurt the Neck.

II seems that women will not heed
the warning concerning the wearing
OF the high collar as sure means of
damaging the beauty of the neck.
The high, stiff, tight collar is very
becoming to some women and so they
take their chances in blemishes on the
throat. Nine times out of ten the
blemishes get the best of the game
and the woman has brown ring
around her neck along with wrinkled
cuticle and saggy muscles.
When the high colalr is worn II
should be comfortably loose. The mus.
cles should be allowed full play and
the skin shouldn't be squeezed. II

REPUBLICANS
FACING RIGHT,
Says UTTER

Ex-Gov. Utter says the Republican
party stands faced I'm the right direction
and is pledged against bossism He told a
small audience so at the Republican rally
In Auburn last night
II believe In the veto power OF the
governor" he said, because you can
make him the weapon in the hands OF the
people to drive out any boss. great or
small. and the governor can't become
boss. because he is chosen by the whole
people. and can be voted out at the next
election II he does not suit. The Republi-
can party is pledged TO propose an amend
ment giving this power to the governor.
II have not thing to say I'm excuse OF
the sores that come on 1t. If a mustard
poultice will not take them out we will
cut them of, but don't leave the party"
Mr.. Utter added that while Col. God
dard called himself independent, he must
either go To the senate II elected as a Re
publican and belle the party that sent
him, or go as Democrat and belle his
own principles. and the speaker conclud-
ed. 'Ie won't do that"
Richard w Jennings declared the pres
ent stand OF the Republican party was
justified by its history of 40 years. He as

New York. Oct. 3O-The enormous in
fluence which American products are ex-
erting In building up credit balance
abroad has been the most signal develop
ment of the financial situation yesterday.
Reports from all quarters show that the
great American staples-wheat, cotton.
copper, tobacco, oil. meats-are on their
way to Europe. this being the season or
the year when American products are
marketed abroad. The immediate effect
of these shipments Is TO give tho United
States a credit abroad which can be
speedily converted into cash.
These natural resources OF the country
promise to exert even greater influence
than the sale OF American securities
abroad The latter have TO some extent
suffered discredit under recent pressure.
but the intrinsic value of American sta
pies used abroad and their colossal ag
gregate at this period OF the year is be-
yond the reach of financial distrust.
The foreign sales OF millions of Ameri-
can copper Monday were supplemented
by reports OF similar heavy exports in
wheat yesterdays shipments alone giving
n foreign credit OF S1.0o0OOO.
The shipments Of tobacco to Europe this
year promise To break all records. Offi-
