BEWARE OF FAKES.

1t will be well for working peo-
pie to fight shy of the co operative
department store schemes that are
being doomed by certain promoters.
Two of these gentlemen who have
been operating extensively got into
difficulty in Rochester, n. y,
where one is accused of sandbagg-
ing trusting investors out of Sc 900.
Their scheme is simple one.
They promise purchasers of stock
dividends on the investments. and
besides certain percentage of re-
duction Oh all purchases made in
their co operative department store.
The best way in which the work
ing peopl' can prevent being
swlndIed in any bunco game, no
matter how glowing the promises
may be, is to refrain from investing
their hard learned dollars with any
but responsible business men and
firms in their own city or locality.
One of the silliest things in the
world is to see a workingman who
has made no study of modern bust
ness methods and the hundred and
one traps that are set to catch the
unwary deliberately give up his
money that he has probably saved
by denying himself and family
many necessities and comforts Of
llfe'for any old brick that may be
offered for sale by some INHALED
faklr. It's this vicious principle
OF attempting to get something for
nothing that is at the bottom of
these schemes, and as it is difficult
to beat Il Swindler ut his own game
1T seems that the labOring people.
| having scores of object lessons of
all sorts of robbericS constantly be-
fore them, ought to have sense and
keep their money and spend it on
themselves Not one in Il thous-
and suckers escapes and gets rich
quick.

RAILROAD PRESIDENTS
CHANGE MINDS ABOUT
GOING TO WASHINGTON
By Assoeiated Press.


NEW YORK, March 15.-Messrs. Nc
Crea, Mellen, Hughitt and Newman, the
four railroad presidents for whose visit
to the White House j. p. Morgan ar
ranged before his departure for Europe,
held conference here today. The whole
situation was canvassed with great care
and it was finally decided not to go to
Washington.
1t is understood the reason for the
conclusion was that the railroads did
not feel they had any proper mandate
from the railroad corporations to repre-
sent them. They felt they could not
assume the position of self-eonstituted
commission to formulate or present the
panies which in turn are owned by
thousands Of shareholders.
They recognized that the railroad
managers OF the United States are not
themselves in perfect accord, and until
some method could be adopted for Sc
curing a lsensus of opinion a visit
to the president would be idle At the
conclusion of the conference the four
presidents left for their homes.
Thomas f. Ryan, when asked his
opinion about the proposed meeting OF
the president and the heads of the great
railroads, said:

to the president is followed up as II
should be by all of our great business

BELLINGHAM, Wash, March 15.-
Following weeks of investigation by the
authorities of Whatcom county, four
well known business men Of Belling-
nam, all past middle life, and three
more than sixty years old, were today
arrested on the charge of criminally
assaulting Helen Lasher, a 13-year-old
girl, and another man was apprehended

These men are DR.. William II. Hayes,
veterinary surgeon and formerly presi-
dent of the Whatcom County Humane

heavy property owner; William Kelli-
her, dry goods merchant; Martin Suth-
erland, painter, and Frank e. Curtis,

PARENTS MUST SUPPORT
THEIR INVALID CHILDREN
BY Associated Press.

By Associated Press.
SAN FRANCISCO, March 15.-In a
decision handed down by the supreme
court today it was held that the parent
of an adult offspring. when in a posi-
ton to do so, was legally and morally
responsible for the support of that
child if the latter was physically un-
able to provide for itself.
The decision was rendered in the
case of John A. and Roma Paxton, son
and daughter, respectively, of Blitz
Paxton, the banker of Santa Rosa. The
son and daughter have been invalids
from infancy. The parents were di-
Vorced several years ago and when the
children attained their majority they
sued the father for maintenance.
Judge Graham of the superior court
at the hearing of the case gave an
allowance of $50 month, $40 for costs
and $3.50 counsel fees.
From this an appeal was taken,
claiming that under section 2O6 of the
Civil Code the father was not respon-
sible for the support of an adult child.
