AT THE WAsHBoARD.
There's an Art in Using It, It Seems
 and a Manufacturer Tells of It,

When" said the washboard manu- facturer, you hear of somebody who is breaking her back over washtub you may make up your mind that the person so doing does not know how to use washboard.
 The washerwoman or professional laundress who uses a washboard regularly and perhaps ten times as much doesn't break her back over it half as much as does the housewife or the young woman who, for econo- my's sake, occasionally washes out a few pieces, as shirtwaist or two, or a few collars or handkerchiefs; and this for the reason that the profes- sional knows how to use a wash board, while most amateurs do not.
 Tn rubbing clothes up and down the board the amateur almost always bends the body from the hips only; so bending the back only, and even with not very much washing to do, rubbing in this way may easily prove backbreaking. But now note how the professional goes at it. With every movement of the hands down the board she bends her knees and so lowers the whole upper body. Low ering 1t so the weight of the body alone carries the hands well down the washboard with nothing like so much bending of the back; or in other words, by the bending of the knees with every rub the strain of the rub ping is taken of largely from the back and distributed over the whole body, and that is the whole secret
 of how to use a washboard without breaking ones back over it."

ImpetuoaitY.

In spite of generations of reckless cumulative Irish gentlemen, 1t is odd that we have still to go to American literature for the classical instances of impetuosity with firearms. This is reproach to Irish authors. which should touch them closely. Irish gen. tlemen were killing and wounding each other on sight almost for cen turies before America was heard of, and yet it was left for Bret Harte and Mark Twain and John Hay to fix in the far west the type of fire-eater who carried his honor in his belt.-T.

There is a certain restaurant in town of quite ambitious pretensions, but not always successful realizations. In fact 1t may be described as French on Hibernian footing.

 And will yez both have dimmy- tassys?"

STANDARDS BIG FINE
Oil Monopolists Are Driven
 From Texas.
COURTS FIX PENALTY OF St,623,O00
Branch Called wafers-Pierce oil Company Found Guilty of vioIat- inE Antitrust Law on 2,521
 Counts In Lone Star State.

i AEahcH Saie0 WuferB-P1eFce O1l l Company Found Guilty of vioIat- l inE Antitrust Law on 2,521 Counts In Lone Star state. 1 AUSTIN, Tex, June 3.--In the suit of the state against the Waters-Pierc Oil company the jury brought in yer diet which found that branch of the Standard oil monopoly guilty on 2,521 counts of violating the antitrust law of 1903 and fixed the penalty at fine of $1,623, 900 and revocation of the H. cense to do business in the state. It was jury of farmers which re- turned this verdict, sweeping victory for the state after trial lasting three weeks. The defense, 1t is said, will appeal.
 This company was once before busted from the state because of it's connec- tion with the Standard, but was re- admitted on the affidavit of H. Clay Pierce that 1t was not connected in any way with the combine For this affi- davit Pierce was subsequently indicted on the charge of perjury.
 Senator Bailey was the lawyer who engineered the Waters-Pierce compa- ny's fight for readmission to the state at that time and this caused the great fight on Bailey at the last session of the legislature.
 Texas later filed suit against the Wa ters-Pierce company to force 1t to pay license fees, as provided by law The company refused to pay, and the pres- ent custer suit followed. The state contended that the company should be fined for every day it allowed the li- cense fee to go unpaid, and the jury upheld the contention.
 The attorneys for the defense were greatly surprised by the magnitude of the judgment and it is declared will not rest until the matter has been fought through the supreme court of
 e United States.

REVISED no ISSUE WRIT.

Senator Lewis II. Mschen, Of this
CITY. with EugeOe Massie and Richard
Evelyn Byrd to sdvise him in the csp1c'
ity OF counsel, yesterday morning made
formal application to Judge iogTsm, OF
the Gsw aud Equity Court in Richmond,
for a mgudamus to compel john W.
Williams, clerk of the House of Dele
g.tes. to proceed with the publication OF
his two amendments 10 the constitution
psssed by the last General Assembly
and held up now because of technical
error in the recording on the state
journal. Contrary to expectations,
Judge Iogram declined to issue the W'it
applied for, although Senator Mschen
had been given to understand that IL
woald be issued. The action of Judge
Ingram 10 refusing the writ WAS "wllh'
out prejudice to the application OF the
applicant to some other judges" No
record of the proceedings was made, ana
the matter can go to some other ]uuge
as if Judge Ingram had not passed upon
il. Senator Machen stated yesterday
afternoon that be would apply at once
TO Judge Mullen, of the Corporation
Court Of Petersburg, for the necessary
writ but as Judge Mullen had gone to
Pennsylvania the matter fell through.
Before applying to Judge Ingram Mr.
Macheu had applied to Judge Witt and
subsequently TO Judge Scott who also
refused the writ.
