trust law under existing rulings OF the
supreme court has given rise TO sugges-
ton for its necessary amendment 10
prevent its applications to cases which
Il is believed were never In the contem-
plation of the trainers of the statute.
Take two instances: A merchant or man
ufacturer engaged In legitimate bust
ness that covers certain states, wishes
TO sell his business and his good will.
and so I'm the terms OF the sale obligates
himself TO the purchaser not to go into
the same business In those states Such
a restraint of trade has always been en-
forced at common law. Again the en-
ployes OF an interstate railway combine
and enter upon a peaceable and lawful
strike to secure better wages At com
mon law this was not a restraint of trade
or commerce or a violation OF the rights
of the company or of the public. Neither
case ought to be made a violation of the
antitrust law. My own impression Is
that the supreme court would hold that
neither of these instances are within
its inhibition, but II they are to be so
regarded, general legislation amending
the law Is necessary.

JACQUES
VAUDEVILLE.

The bill at the Jacques is fairly good this week and has a little of ev- erything that goes to make up vaudeville. Although the Zazell and
 Vernon company in their pantomimic act is featured as the big noise of the bill, last evening Banks and New ton, comedians and eccentric dancers, easily won the premier honors in the applause line. The pantomimic of fering is called "The Elopement," ," showing all kinds of ludicrous situa- tions that arise while a man is en- deavoring to get his bride-to-be from her home for the purpose of eloping. The groom's valet is the comedian and has some old but funny material, The usual number of swinging doors and apertures in the walls are brought into play Banks and New ton have some breezy dialogue and the little chap as an eccentric dancer

eve thought we had pretty good joke on one of our leading Louisville physicians not long ago." representa- tive from the blue grass country re- gently remarked in Washington. There was little celebration on hand, and a number of banners had been hung in the streets, most of them bearing the coat of arms of Kentucky, the motto on which. you know, Is United We Stand, Divided We Fall
 "Well, the doctor had consented to have one end of the rope supporting a banner attached to his house, the other end being fastened to a building across the street. To his astonishment, he observed that whenever a person passed by he would break into roar of laughter, point out the banner to some one else and go on, still laugh ing.
 This worried the doctor for some time, and finally he undertook an in- vestigation.
 Imagine his feelings, if you can, when he discovered that the other end of the rope was made fast to an un- dertaking establlshmentr = Harper's Weekly.

Boston Banker Says His Life Has Been Hope
 less for that Length of Time

Carleton H. Hutchinson, a leading banker and broker of Boston. with offices at 8 Congress Street, in that city, has recently come out with a very strong statement.
 In the widespread discussion over Cooper's new theory and medicines which has spread over the country SC rapidly, Mir. Hutchinson has taken the side of those who say that Cooper's theory is correct and his medicine all that he claims.
 Mir. Hutchinson's emphatic state ment is as follows: Anyone afflicted with chronic i'll health and a general rundown condition caused by stomach trouble, who does not try this man Cooper's medicine, is very foolish. say this after most remarkable ex perience with the medicine.
 'I heard of Cooper's success first when he was in Chicago, as I have 6 private wire to that city in connection with my business. Later, when ht came East, learned more of him and his theory that stomach trouble causes most i'll health. I have had no faith in anything not prescribed by a phy sician for each particular case after careful diagnosis. but after eight yearS of constan. suffering, during whlcl

MODES OF THE MOMENT.

Applique lace waists are often given high stocks of chiffon laid ill loose folds. These shape to the neck and are very smart.
 Waists of chiffon, lace and net are not precisely novel, but dyed to match the skirt of cloth or velvet they are strong features of this seasons styles.
 The newest ties are the knitted ones. They are four inches wide and of the proper length for conventional four finland. Naturally they are to be worn strictly with tailored shirt waists.
 There are many new belt and buckle designs, but there always are. The belt usually matches the gown color or har- monizes with it. and the buckles are oddly shaped, and if they are gro tesque in design so much the better.
 White waists have grown more elab- crate, and they are fashioned now of an almost limitless number of materi- als For the winter season the heavy laces will prevail, but there are also lovely lingerie effects for those who are not afraid of winters chill and dread pneumonia.-New York Post.

 Tyrone Power is to play the principal role with Henrietta Crosman in "The Christian Pilgrim"
 "The Thief" which has turned out to be a great success in New York, Is to have four companies playing it en tour.
 F. M Holland is playing to large houses en tour His medium is a dramatization of 'rhe House of a Thousand Candles"
 Denman Thompson is back on the stage again, doing his part in "The Old Homestead" and reports say the veteran actor is as hale and hearty as ever.
 So far Charles Klein's play, "The Stepsister," has failed to win favora- ble notice from the critics. It is char acterized as a modern version of "Cin- derella"
 James O'Neil has again revived "1'he Count of Monte Cristo." He has been giving "Virginius" for some time, but his return to the Dumas play brought forth large audience.

Is certainly good. One of their w'se remarks is, No matter how hungry a horse is he cant eat a Dit. Iney are willing workers and deserved all the plaudits that went their way. Still the smaller member of the team could get along almost as well WlIh- out his partner. The Marco Twins, another tall and short pair, have Ihe ability to produce a side splitting number, but lose many good oppof- tunities. The taller member or the team twists himself into some laugh able shapes and handles himself ln such a manner that he is sure to get an audience laughing, but much or his act borders closely on vulgarlty. The pygmy in act gets more abuse than the little fellow with Jack the Giant Killer" Knight brothers and Sawtelle start off we'll in a singing and dancing number. They would be more successful if they confined their efforts to offerings similar to their first rendition. Miss SaWtclle as a monologue artist is not howl ing success. Their wind-up is not nearly as good as their beginning. The Searl and Alien company have d very poor skit, entitled The Travel ing Man" The scene is on car going from New York to Chicago. It had ought to get stranded some- where. Anna Hamilton and com pany present sketch of Mexican life called The Beggars. The skit is too long drawn out, is poorly put together and is not enacted any too we'll. The make-ups and dialect of the male members are away off. Miss Hamilton tried hard. The opening number is presented by the Devoie trio, who do some remarkable feats on the rings. Their act is far and ahead of similar numbers of this kind and is given in such clean cut manner that it is to be appreciated.

time I spent over s1,50o with abso- lutely no relief, I felt that it would at least do no harm to try the medicine which I was hearing so much about.
 During these eight years l have been forced to go without solid food for five and six weeks at time. I always had a sour stomach, was troubled with formation of gas, and led the usual miserable life of the dys- peptic. I was dull, tired, nervous and gloomy all the time, and was always constipated.
 q have taken Cooper's medicine a comparatively short time. For the past month I have not had the slight. est sign of stomach trouble. l can eat anything with no bad effect whatso- ever. l have fine appetite, am gain ing flesh very rapidly, am cheerful, full of energy, and my nervousness has disappeared. My bowels are in perfect condition for the first time in eight years.
 T don't hesitate to say that I would not take S50.O00 and be back where I was. My relief and thankfulness is beyond description"

A GOOD FELLOW. "

At a recent performance of "A Good Fellow" which will be at Polls this afternoon and evening, a record was kept of the times the au- dience indulged in hearty, resound- ing laughter, and when the total was made up IA explosions of merri- ment were recorded. It is one of the merriest, maddest comedies ever written. It is panorama of laugha- ble scenes and incidents from the rise till the fall of the curtain. Every character is distinct type and the situations are side-splitting without any resort to horse play. As laugh maker it stands supreme and the lover of good comedy will enjoy every moment of it.

Wool

Boston Herald:-The wool market is
still waiting upon the goods market, and
is generally recognized that it is useless
to look for any stated improvement, es-
pecially in clothing woods, until the
mills are able to get business enough to
keep more of their machinery running.
The largest mills are still running on
short time, and it is reported that others
are shortly to go on part time. Natur.
ally there is great deal of interest be-
ing taken in the new clip and its market
ing. Shearing is now general in SOUTH
ern California, is getting we'll under way
in Texas, and is just beginning in south.
ern Nevada. In Wyoming and Utah
shearing will not commence until later,
probably not until after April IS.
SOLD OR CoNsIGNED7
Whether the bulk of the new clip wools
are to be sold outright*to eastern dealers
or consigned depends in large measure
on the attitude of the growers. 1t is said
that the latter are expecting to be OBJ
liged to accept lower prices than were
paid year ago, but it is considered
doubtful if they are willing to make
prices in accord with the views of the
dealers here. The. selling prices of wool
are,t today fully 5c'below last year, OF. at
least 20 per cent, in some cases more,
lower than the same clips we're bringing
at this time last year. t.iS
