wnLE'S "GEE."
Do You Know His Like Around
Mexicol

Willie, the new office boy, al
ways does more than is required
of him. For example, he is ex-
pected to open the boss" mail,
but is not required to read the
letters. Yesterday he found one
that pleased him so much that
he showed it to the head book
keeper.
ut has rs where double SIS
ought to be-" he said.
The head bookkeeper looked
the letter over with interest. 81
take my pen in hand to write
you a few lines" he read.
Gee, that's the way all the
letters in the old days began.
Things have changed now. We
don't even tell a man that we
are his humble servant since
times have changed. We send
out curt typewriter letters that
are dictated or often send sim
ply a form letter. Give Smith
a form ID letter. says the boss.
There are other things that
have changed more than the
form of letter writing" put in
the country collections man.
YES" answered the head
bookkeepers, "the way of invit
ing a girl to a party or to the
theater, for instance. We used
to write a note to the girl re.
questing the pleasure of her
company for the evening. Nov
we grab a telephone, stick our
feet up on the desk and call for
South 'steen eleven.
Hello, femme speak with
Sue"
This is Sue?"
This is John. What's on for
tonight"
"Us for the Prince of the
Cocoanut Isles for tonight Mt
eight, then, don't keep me wait
ing"
"And then you hang up"
The country collections man,
who isn't married and knows
more about the new generation
of girls than the head bookkeep-
er does, shook his head sadly,
Nope" he said, you've got
the dope all wrong. It's this
way rather. / get home from
work and I'm dead tired. / pull
off my coat and my collar and
light my pipe. Then about 2
o'clock the telephone bell rings
els that you George?' asks q
sweet voice.
YES / answer.
Well, I've got three CIR
friends from the country ovel
at my house. l wish you'd hur
ry up to get theater tickets fol
us all tonight. Take along a Lit
tie extra money, for, like a
not, we'll be hungry after tn,

Then the office boy wistlet
on his fingers for a signal.

NOTRE DANE OF REIMS.

The place where 1t Rems cathe-

thedral in France that can equal it in
wealth In extravaganza, in gorgeous
ness Of ornament. The facade Of Notre
Dame Of Paris, while something like IL
IN general design, is Of Puritan sim
plicity beside the facade Of NOtre
Dame OF Reims. No other west doors
are more deeply recessed. more richly
charged with sculpture, row upon row.
tier upon tier. some statues being as
unexpectedly Greek in character as
others are Gothic. No other sculptures
are on 50 large and imposing scale.
No other gables over the doors soar
upward in such high, acute angles No
other show such an ENHANCEMENT OF
figures and traccries. And the great,
tall windows above and the rose be-
tween are 50 beSct with ornament that
hardly an inch Of bare stone remains
about them. In the gallery of kings
the statues stand under carvcn canO-
pies, intricate, delicate, lacclikc in their
elaboration. The tall central gable.
frcttcd and namboyant, reaches up still
higher ana on each side of it the tow

The matter of extending sewer con-
nections from the downtown sewer now

JUDGE Lands FINES
STANDARD OIL $29,24O,OOO
Maximum Amount Given on Each One of
l462 Counts In the Indictment
Against the Trust

CHICAGO, Aug. 3.-Judge Lands, OF
the United States district court, today
imposed a fine upon the Standard Oil
company of Indiana of $2s,24O.000. This
is the maximum amount upon each OF
the 1,462 counts of the indictment on
which that company was recently con-
victed of rebating.
Judge Landis also recommended that
a call be issued for special grand jury
which is to consider the other party
to the rebating operations of which the
Standard has been found guilty. 1t Is
probably that proceedings will be COM
menced against the Chicago & Alton
Railroad CO. for alleged commission of
a similar offense. p
Judge Lands in his decision said 1t
was proven in the trial that the de-
fendant. a corporation Of Indiana, op-
crates an oil refinery at Whiting, Ind.
that the Chicago & Alton, a corpora
ton of Illinois operates a line of rail-
road from Chicago to East St. Louis,

WILL EXAMINE
MARBLE QUARRY
Eastern Expert Has Come
to Pass Upon Such
Properties

G. A. Snere 10 visitor in the city
from Minneapolis and will inspect the
marble and granite quarries in the
Lewiston country while here.
Mr.. Snere has been In correspond
ence with the Commercial club for
some time, and his visit to Lewiston
is the result of this correspondence.
1t is probable a trip to the upper
Snake river will be made within a few
days, where workmen are now engaged
in quarryng granite and marble from
the upper river quarries.
The marble property located near the
mouth of the Grand Donde and which
is owned by George H. Kester and as
sociates, is considered one of the most
promising marble prospects in the
west. Men who have been working al
this quarry for the past two years and
now have a large shipment of high
grade marble in a warehouse near the
Snake river awaiting transportation tc
Lewiston.
The building of the railroad from
Huntington to- Lewiston will open tn,
quarries of the upper river to thh mar
kets of the world, and ii is expected
the development of the granite ant
marble resources will be taken up oil
large scale as soon as the transpor
tation is secured.

SUNDAY REST
DELAYS HARVEST
Farmers Find Their Oper-
ations Hindered By the
New Law

Farmers in the city today are COM
which has put a stop to harvest opera
tions in the Lewiston country on the
Sabbath day.
The new law is particularly objec-
tionable this season on account Of the
scarcity of labor and the large harvest
in all sections of the country and a
further objection is raised on account
of the men going into town on Satur-
day evening and in many cases not re-
turning to work Monday. 81
The law is particularly embarras-
sing to header men and thresher oper-
ators where the machines are being
operated within reach of town." said a
prominent farmer today. 1.-THE men
will go into town Saturday evening and
on account of the demand for labor
are not particular about returning to
work on Monday. 1t has put the farm
er up against a proposition of going to
town each Monday and spending day
or two in securing new crew.
1t has been the custom in the Lew
iston country for a number of years to
carry, on the harvest from the begin
ming of the season to the close without
interruption and the passage Of law
which provides punishment for the
farmer who win go into his fields tc
harvest his crop when storms are
threatening and labor Is scarce is con.
sidered an injustice.
