" AM the most unfortunate of menl
Because Of my i'll fitting Suit.
- am a Sacrifice to the incompetence,
Ignorance Indifference and Cupidity OF
My two Arch Enemies-the Tailor and Old
Dr. Goose-the Hot Flat Iron.
They're to blame for my Mental Anguish
and Suffering
For between them they made my Suit
what it is-they fed the flames OF my Sac
rifce.
First to begin was the Tailor-he Cut
my Suit all wrong-then to save money he
hurried 1t through a lot of Underpaid
Machine Operatives who slapped the Diff
ferent Parts together In frenzied eagerness
to earn their Scant Pay.
Then, although the Defects were observ-
able. even to a Novice, and should have
been corrected by Carefully taking the
aUt apart and making It over again-the
suit was given over TO Old DIT. Goose
the Hot Flat Iron-who tried to press and
stretch and shrink out Actual Defects OF
making by means OF the Hot Flat Iron.
He "doped" in style and Shape for a
brief time only
When saw that Suit at the store 1t
looked fine.
But short time after I had worn it. It
became as you now see It'll was Sacrificed

ssThree lawyers, three Christian gentle
men. three conscientiously upright ciu-
zens," who died during the last year, were
honored by a gathering Of their fellow at

house Saturday morning. The seven Judges
OF the district bench presided, with Judge
Troup as spokesman. The three men in
whose memory the meeting was called by
the Douglas County Bar association were:
Joseph II Blair.
Charles z. Morgan
Frank Heller.
Resolutions upon the death Of Judge
Blair which occurred in Los Angeles, were
read by Charles A. Goss. Following the
reading he related incidents illustrative Of
the large heartedness and generosity Of
Judge Blair. He once overheard him say
to a man who was speaking disparagingly
Of another, SAY no more; that man Is
my friend and / win listen 10 no calumny
upon him.
Judge Jacob Fawcett spoke Of the life OF
Judge Blair. He pronounced him IAN
honest man, a fearless judge and man
who abhorred fraud" II was unbearable
to him to see wrong triumphing, and II
there was any criticism that could be made
upon him It was when he had found dis
honesty cropping out in the trial OF case
he tried to get at the root OF It and decide
the case in a manner to foil the evil plot
and possibly not in strict accord with
precedent In my heart I am glad

is no more" he concluded.

he was a great lawyer In the highest sense
In which that adjective can be used. He

for place where he could do good even
at the greatest inconvenience to himself.
Few people knew it but 1 knew that he
refused to marry and establish a home for

good with the money by giving it to

WILL EXAMINE MRS. EDDY.
Court Orders Masters to Visit Founder
 of Christian Science.

or InfIStIdn SClenCe.
 Concord, N. H., Aug. 14.-At the Eddy hearing MT. Chandler addressed the court on the incompetency of Mrs. Eddy, saying it was established by the trust deed which she executed on March by which she transferred all her property beyond her control. Her incompetency, he added, is further shown by her evasion of taxes in the city of Concord, an act which she would never have committed or al- lowed her agents to commit had she been in her right mind.
 MT. Chandler then went into the sub- ject of Mrs. Eddy's alleged delusions. He stated in closing that Mrs. Eddy was a victim not of a solitary delu. sion, not of notion, even insane mo- tion, but of a series of systematical delusions which influenced her whole life and has resulted, or will result, in senile dementia
 Just before adjournment Judge Aid rich asked what opportunity the mas terS were to have to examine Mrs. Eddy herself. Frank $. Streeter, her counsel, replied that she had not suf- ficient strength to come into court and undergo an examination, but she would be glad to receive the masters at Pleasantview and confer with them there. Judge Aldrich said that in view of Mrs. Eddy's advanced age he thought it would be proper for the masters to visit her, accompanied by one counsel on either side, and he sug- gested that counsel endeavor to agree upon some time for such visit.

OIL TRUST IS PILLORIED.
Standards Favoritism Toward Foreign Consumers Exposed.

Standards Favoritism Toward Foreign
 Consumers Exposed.
 Washington, Aug. 14.-In the busi- ness of selling petroleum products in foreign countries the price policy of the Standard Oil company has apparently been to sacrifice the interests of the American consumer for the purpose of securing the Standards foreign busi- ness.
 This direct charge is made in an off, cial report to President Roosevelt by Herbert Knox Smith, commissioner of corporations, in submitting to him fur ther results of the investigation of the operations of the Standard Oil compa- ny by the bureau of corporations.
 Commissioner Smith asserts that the Standard, enjoying practically an ab solute monopoly of the oil trade in this country, has charged ''such prices as it could thereby eXtort, and the American consumer has had to pay these prices. Meeting competition abroad, it has given the foreign con sumer oil at ? cents a gallon less than the American consumer has to pay, and 1t has used the profits made at home to maintain its position abroad, so that the American consumer has been severely discriminated against for the purpose of maintaining, not the dominance of American export trade, but the dominance of a particular com bination."
 The report also states that widely di- vergent prices prevail in different portions of the domestic field. For in- stance, in December, 1904, the average price in Delaware, less freight, was TT cents per gallon. In Pennsylvania it was ST cents, in New York state 10 cents, in North Carolina and New Hampshire 10.3 cents, part of South Carolina 11.4 cents, Florida 12.8 cents and part of Georgia supplied from the same source 13 cents, all with freight deducted.

 Antitrust Campaign.

Says Disaster Will Follow Presen,
 Antitrust Campaign.
 New York, Aug. 14.-The World yub. lished an interview with John D. Rock. efeller, obtained at his home in Cleve. land, in which the oil king prophecies as a result of the present campaign financial disaster which will sweep the country. He said in part:
 'The policy of the present admins tration," Mir. Rockefeller said earnestly and deliberately, toward great busi- ness combinations of all kinds has on ly one result. It means disaster to the country, financial depression and finan- cial chaos.
 "The world already has fair dose of this since the extreme penalty inn posed on one corporation with limit ed number of shareholders has caused a loss of confidence, reflected in a fall ing stock market, a tightening of mon- ey and fear of -he future The news papers are full of this slump and re- fleet the feeling of unrest. They as- cribe it to but one thing.
 "Confidence is gone, and confidence is the basis of all prosperity. With confidence established there can be no stopping of the wheels of progress. Without 1t all is at standstill.
 ''The investor, great and small, locks up his money and refuses to venture forth.
 'I can judge in another way. Re quests are coming to me today for money from quarters it was least ex- pected would be asking for money some time ago. Today 1 was offered the unprecedented interest of per cent for $1,OOO,OO0 or $2,OOO,OOO or s. 100000. The security was beyond all criticism. That would be impossible in this country if there was confi- dence enough to unlock the money vault of the country.
 "I have been surprised at the atti- tude of our administration in its re- cent actions. What with reports from MT. Smith every five minutes, indict- ments in the courts, attacks from the heads of government departments and what not, one can hardly say just where we are at so far as commerce and finance go."

Skunk Empties Connecticut Theater.

Meriden, Conn.,. Aug. IA skunk wandered into the auditorium of the Hanover park summer theater. A wo- man screamed, and the 500 persons ir the audience leaped from their seats. Women joined men in clambering over high railing. Policeman NJ. !. Kelly, unfamiliar with skunks, attempted to catch the animal, but retreated and, standing at Il safe distance, opened fire with his revolver. He emptied it, but none of the shots took effect. Frank McNabb, one of the spectators, cornered the skunk and killed 1t with d club. Then he went home by cir cuitous route. The management an nounced to vacant chairs that the per formance was called off.
