SURPRISE IN SHEA TRIAL.
Merchants to Be Advised to Ignore
SubDoenaS,

CHICAGO. January 5-Assistant States
Attorney Miller declared today at the COM
mencement of the Shea trial that he would
advise a number of merchants who We're
yesterday subpoenaed by the defense to
ignore the subpoenas.
1t was announced by the attorneys for
the defense that they intended to compel
the merchants to produce their books in
court and show by them that they are
members of the Employers Association
which conducted the fight against the
Transfers in the great strike of last year.
The statement of MIR. Miller took the
defense completely by surprise, and they
objected vehemently, but the assistant
states attorney declared that the defense
must first show the materiality of the de-
sired information and that until this was
done he would advise the ignoring of the
subpoenas. Extended arguments the
points of law involved in the attitude of the
state followed.
No action was taken regarding the sub
poenas, and the matter was allowed to go
over until Monday.

Unreliable Bottles.

The Rev William A. Sunday, formerly
famous base ball player and an evangelist,
writes me from Worthington, MIMI to ask
regarding an offer alleged to have been
made by one of the big dstillers of the
country of a prize of 100000 to any one
who will invent a bottle that cannot be
reflled Mr.. Mallory of Kewanee, ILL.,,
makes a similar inquiry.
Mr. Alexander Shaw, chief examiner of
the division of bottles and jars in the pat
ent Office. tells that me a story has been
going around the newspapers for many
years to the effect that the government of
the United States has offered such a prize
through the commissioner of internal reve
nue.. 1t has also been widely published
that some of the big brewers have offered
similar Inducements to inventive genius in
order to protect the public from the i'm
positions of retail liquor dealers who refill
empty bottles bearing the labels of pure
high-class whisky and beer with cheaper
and lower grade of those liquors. But no
such offer was ever made by anybody The
report was started by firm of patent at
torneys, who claimed to represent the dis
tillers who offered the prize. 1t was merely
a dsreputable means of getting business
As consequence hundreds of inventors
employed that particular firm to obtain
patents for various devices of that kind.
Their fees must have amounted to many
thousands of dollars. The applications for
patents for bottles that cannot be reflled
have averaged more than a day for
several years ever since the bogus offer
was advertised. Sometimes as many as
four or five applications are received daily,
and the total file now numbers more
than 1000. Several hundred patents have
been granted for different devices, but Mr..
Shaw says that most of them will not work
or are too expensive to be popular. Fur
thermore, retail dealers as a rule will not
handle whisky that comes in bottles that
cannot be rehled

in part:
1.-THE spoliation of the church in France
will soon be complete. The government
has repudiated its sacred obligation by sup
pressing the public worship budget. The
small recompense which is accorded will
not pay for what is owing to the clergy
for the property seized during the revolu-
ton. The bishops and priests have been
driven from their homes, and as If this was
not enough the church has been stripped

century.

Pillar proposed that Trana impersonate her
brother Cristoval, who Spanish military
officer on leave and that she and her father go
with him and Dick in the motor car This plan
was arranged, and the following day Triana was
introduced to the Dukes party as Lieutenant
ODonnel.
There ensued race through Spain: the Duke,
suspicious of the bogus Lieutenant, trying to keep
out Of the way. However accidents to his motor
car favored the theirs; till finally in desperation,
Carmona managed to confront Triana with man
who knew the real Lieutenant ODonne This
man, however, previously prepared by Pillar, saved
Trlana by pretending to recognize him.
Triana managed to see Monica at private enter
tainment in Seville; but she said, Il never wish to
see you again l am going to marry the Duke of
Carmona!' Pillar insisted that Monica had been
deceived and still loved Triana.
Dick proposed to Pillar, as they were inspecting a

girl but she laughed him aside
Triana frustrated bomb thrower as he was about

The lover and Monica became reconced in a

followers they were about to elope. Triana
wounded the Duke with the latter's own weapon in
the fracas.
The Duke and his party left town with Triana
and Dick in pursuit. Near Utrera the latter came
upon the King fighting with bandits, and assisted
him in overcoming them. The bandits had been
engaged by the Duke to capture Triana. and had
attacked the King by mistake. Triana rushed on
