In the first place. and speaking
broadly, rough tweeds are quite de-
mode. says Paris letter They are
all very well for the mountain or the
moor" but they won't do at all for the
town. All the fashionable tweeds are
smooth.faced surface and are very
fine in texture, with rich, dark effects
of color and stripe. Stripes are as
popular as ever, some diagonal. some
chevron. but most OF them twotoned
and ombre. Very few tartans are to
be seen. though ! hear they are still
very fashionable. The color and cloth
Of dress is. however. not of so much
Importance as that II should be supple
and soft. That is the most important
thing; because Of the soft drapings Of

they are made of tweed or cashmere.

Instances In Which
Secret Service Starred.

In connection with the Nebraska prose-
cuuon the government has by decree se-
cured the return To the government of
over million acres OF grazing land;
In Colorado of more than 1900 acres of
mineral land. and suits are now pending
involving iio.0a0 acres more
AN these investigations in the land
cases were undertaken In consequence
OF Mr.. Hitchcock. the then secretary
OF the Interior. becoming convinced that
there were extensive frauds committed
In his department; and the ramifcations
OF the frauds were NO far-reaching that
he was afraid TO trust his own officials
TO deal in thorouehgolng fashion with
them One OF the secret service men ac-
cordlngly resigned and was appointed
In the Interior department to carry on
this work. The FIRST thing h. discovered
was that the special agents division or
corps OF detectives OF the land ONCE of
the Interior department was largely un-
der the control OF the land thieves: and
In consequence the Investigations above
referred TO had TO be made by secret
service men.
''If the present law. for which Messrs.
Tawnoy. Smith, and the other genti--
men have above mentioned ar. respon-
siblc. had then been in effect. this ac-
tlon would have been impossible. and
most OF the criminals would unouesiion-
ably have escaped, No NOR. striking In

W|NKLER SENDS
ON HIGH GRADE

Fred NJ. winkler, one of the popular
McGill boys. now at Hancock, Mich,
has sent back to the News the follow
ing high grade commandments with re-
gard to hunting and fishing:
First-Thou shall not kill for the
mere sake of slaughter, but only what
though canst use for myself and the
friends who are dear to thee.
Second-Thou shalt not take undue
advantage of the quarry, but pit thy
cunning against his as thou woulds't
to a foeman of thine w kind.
Third-Thou shall not covet thy
neigbors deer, nor his elk, nor his
duck, nor his tame chicken. nor his
beer, nor his conversation water. The
last two you can get at the Copper
Club Saloon, McGill; Southern Bar, Ely.
Ask c. P. Carson, w. H. Weller, Bert
Asper, John Kenney. the big fat boy.
I will prove this by Wag, Sig or Zig,
Watson, Hollis, Geary, Leak or w. B.
Merrill.
Fourth-If thou kill a calf or a COW
by mistake thou shall admit thy fault
and pay the owner thereof in good coin
of the realm.
Fourth-Before thou bangest away
at a moving mark thou shall be very
sure thai thou art not shooting thy
comrade in the head or the neck or the
heart or the leg. Ask Nels.
Sixth-When thou Hest about the
size of thy bag of game thou shall not
multiply the facts by more h ten
(1O) unless the man to whom thou Hest
is a greater liar than Frank Mcdonald
or Lee Howard or N. E. Benson.
Seventh-Thou shall not spear the
fish in Duck Creek or use Greek bait
or otherwise violate the laws of thy
state and the rules of thy game.
Eighth-When thou return empty
handed from the hunt thou shall not
kick on the price the butcher charges
thee for the veal you bought and told
thy friends it is venison.
Ninth-Thou shall spread a banquet
for thy friends when thou contest back
loaded with dick and snipe and they
ducks shall be garnished with oyster
dressing and sweet potatoes and wash
ed down with conversation water and
blue ribbon, for a chaser.
Tenth-Thou shall take pictures of
the game and bring them to the news
papers and thou shall bring Of thy
ducks one dozen, thy venison a quarter
to the reporter and editor of Copper
Ore; who shall make thy name as a
huntsman great in McGill.

TAFT ON THE BOYCOTT.

In his speech at Portland Mr.. TAFT
said some sensible things abou boy
colts. declaring that "they are ille-
gal, and ought to be suppressed, ana
adding: Il would never countenance
a law which recognizes their legailty'
and 1 have not hesitated to say SO, but
l do not think the way to suppress
them is to take a federal statute that
was intended for another evil ana
make it apply to them. If the statute
is changed in the manner which 1
suggest the letter of the statute will
not cover their cases. The labor
unions say they want a definite ex-
emption, saying that this statute should
not apply to them at all. I would not
consent to that. Labor unions must
obey the laws like everybody else
Every syllable in that expression
will be Endorsed by all public-spirited
Americans, except the implication that
the federal statute was no intended
to apply to embargoes on trade by
labor unions. During the discussion OF
he Sherman antitrust act of 1890,
which is the statute to which the presi-
dent refers, ali dtttihPt
exempt labor unions and farmers So
~cieties from the operations of the law,
but that plea failed. 1t failed because
the trainers of the statute believed h
such an exemption would set up a Ia
vored order of people in the
ity, and that the whole statute would
be declared unconstitutional by the
courts on the ground that it was
LEGISLATION. Therefore labor and or
CARNATIONS of capitalists were made
amenable to the penalties of the stat
ute.
Mr.. Taft's proposition for an amend
ment to the Sherman act IN this point
has never been clearly set forth IN
print, but this will probably be done
in his regular message to congress

. TOWN SUSPECTS DEBTS.
Two Mysterious Notes for $4,000
Sturt Financial Probe.

BIRMINGHAM, Mass, Oct. 81
The discovery that two mysterious
notes aggregating $4,000. are out
standing against the town, although
no record of either note appears on
the books, led to an investigation by
the Selectmen, and to the appointment
of a temporary town treasurer to
take the place of John B. Lombard,
who is dangerously ill at his home.
In a statement given out today,
Town Counsel Walter Adams said that
two notes of $500 each, held by
Boston banks, had been presented for
payment, and that although the sigma
ture of two members of last years
board of selectmen purported to ap-
pear on them, those who know the
signatures of the two men were of the
opinion that the signatures were not
genuine.
Lombard has been town treasurer
for 10 years. His books which have
been examined by the auditor within
the last month, were pronounced salts
factory in every way.

his amendment might throw obstacles
in h way of the courts in Furnishing
this crime. In the Danburn hat case
the United States Supreme Court de-
clared that a boycott on the production
of any article which enters into inter-
state commerce is a crime in the mean
ing of the Sherman act, and its perpe-
traitors are subject to the penalties i'm
posed by that statute. Every American
who wants a square deal for all ele-
ments of the community a~pplauded that
decision. For this reason all PROPOSE
lions to dilute or modify the statute at
that particular point will need to be
scanned very closely lest it may lend
itself to some distortion which may
permit it to set up a privileged order
of lawbreakers in the community
