Affinity Parties the Rage.

parties are all the rage among the
churches OF Norwalk. Affinity par.

dictate two things usually left to

blindiolded, the same as IN the time,
honored game OF blindman's buff,
and they are then released in turn in
the center OF the bevy OF young
ladies. The ones they catch are their
"'affinities."
Not only is their fate thus decided,
but with their prize they get q sample
OF her cooking, for each lady partici.
pant brings lunch for two. The
chances Of the game are somewhat
perfected by the fact that the young
ladies come to the assistance OF fate
in many cases and fall easy prey be-
fore the outstretched hands of the
one they are willing to cast their lot
and lunch with.

Checks Dated Ahead Notes.

Milwaukee, June.-When what or,
dinarily would be regarded as a bank
check bears q future date it no long
er is q check, but Is a promisory
note, according to q ruling made by
Police Judge Neelen in the case OF
Abraham Lakan, a peddler and junk
dealer, who secured several hundred
dollars by issuing such currency.
Lakan bought junk by the carload
from several Milwaukee junk dealers,
and then, when he wanted deal
closed quickly, offered to pay in
checks dated ahead. His offer was
accepted and he then sold the Junk,
When his checks came back to the
man from whom he had bought the
junk they were marked "no funds. +"
The men who had lost then swore
out warrants for Lakan on a for.
gerry charge, and he was arrested In
San Antonio, Tex, and brought
back, at a cost OF $500.
In court, when he was arraigned,
his lawyer declared that checks da.
ted ahead we're not checks, but
promissory notes and that Lakan
had committed no crime in issuing
them The Judge found for Lakan
on that plea.

Paper Making From Sugar Cane

The claim OF q sugar planter on
the island OF Trinidad that he has
discovered q practical method of
making paper from the stalks Of
sugar cane, after the juice has been
extracted, has attracted attention.
The claims OF the inventor are set
forth in a report to this government
by Consul. General Richard Guenther
OF Frankfort Germany.
The increasing scarcity OF spruce,
which is the wood most used for pa.
per making, is well known. Active
search Is being made in many parts
OF the world for materials to take
the place of pulpwood. Enormous
quantities Of ground sugar cane go
to waste at the suar factories. Some
OF 1t is used for fuel under the boilers,
but very large part is left 30 rot.
From time to time experiments
have been made to convert the
bagasse, or cane refuse, into paper,
but with limited success, commecisl-
ly, unless the Trinidad planters
claim is we'll founded. He Is conf,
dent that he has made a valuable
discovery and has built an SS5,000
paper mill as an adjunct to his sugar
factory. He has turned out paper
worth S24 ton, according to Con.
sul.Genersl Guenther. About a ton
and a quarter OF caen makes ton
OF pulp. 1t Is reported that the pro-
cess OF manufacturers comparatively
inexpensive, The planter claims that
Is will pay to grow cane for paper
alone, leaving the sugar as clear
profit.

Easy Remedy For Bad Roads.

own property along them. Elect no

does not understand how to make
good roads out OF poor ones. II
there is no such man in your neigh.
borhood. hire one from outside. This
is, ninety.nine times out OF a hun,
dred, the wisest thing to do, for the
chances are that there Is no man In
the neighborhood who has had prac.
tical experience enough to make it
safe to trust the work to him. He may
have good sense, good judgment,
and all that-in short, there may be
the making of a good road-builder In
him-but what you need is man
who is a good road,builder-a man
who has got the trade already learn
ed. In other words, you can't afford
to walt for home talent to develop II
the man who has developed his ability
in that direction is procursble. Have
your road tax paid In cash. Secure
skilled man, and let him assume
responsibility Tor the work he under.
takes. Iiyou do this, you stand In
IA fair way to solve the problem Of
good roads.-From around the

Chinese Die in Crates.

Washington, June. inspectors of
the Bureau OF Immigration have
gone to New York for the purpose OF
Investigating one OF the weirdest re-
ports ever made to the bureau In
connection with the evasion OF the
Chinese exclusion law.
Twelve Chinese, who were started
from some point In Mexico In boxes
to New York by express, presumably
to test this means OF evsding the ex-
clusion law, are reported to have
arrived at their destination dead
from suffocation or starvation.
There is considerable mystery
about the matter and the officials
are moving with great caution In
the hope OF ascertaining who are in
the conspiracy in New York and who
received the bodies. Acting Com
missioner Larned is having inquiries
made at the Mexican frontisr and In
New York.
The news, 1t is understood, reach
ed the bureau through an Inspector
at Ell Paso, and the rumor OF the
death OF the Cinnamon en- route has
been current there for several days.

Recently an Irving, Kan, man says

buyer offered to purchase her at the
rate OF 50 per gallon for all the milk
she would give In twenty.four hours.

The purchaser then MIXED the COW
out clean at Z O'Clock in the evening
and on the following morning and
evening the owner MIXED her in the
presence OF witness. He then meas
ured all the milk and found II
amounted to five gallons and one
pint. This at the rate OF 50 per gal.
Ion the COW was deemed to be worth

The owner had fully expected the
cow to bring him $4S as she had fill.
