ANCIENT QUEENS HAT
BEAT MERRY WIDOW
Showed Children Casting Pearls
to Swine and Birds in Trees

Here is suggestion for a ladys hat
which would no doubt create as great a
sensation today as it did at the time
when Blanche de, Bourbon, queen of
CASTLE, wife of Peter the Cruel ap-
peared In it in 1852, says the London
Globe. It cost 35 pounds soils, Paris,
and was made for the young queen by
Kathellot, the Worth of that period
who made all the pretty headgear for
the Parisians. The hat itself was COM

REVOLUTION IN MEXICO
DENIED BY AMBASSADOR
Conflicts at GuadaIajara and
Other Places BeIittIed

WASHINGTON, Aug 22.-"There has
never been any fear of a revolution
in Mexico" says Senior Mariscal the
Mexican minister of foreign affairs, in
a dispatch received at the Mexican en-
baSsy this afternoon
The Mexican ambassador. Senior de la
Barra, said that he felt this ought to
dispose OF the rumors indicating the
probability of an uprising in Mexico
as result of the approaching presi-
Dental campaign. The ambassador
said that the whole country would sus-
tain the candidacy of Diaz for the pres
idency, and that the patriotism of the
people would not brook any Interrupt
tion to the era of progress.
Reports that the conflicts at Guada-
laJara and other places were symptoms
of a revolution. said the ambassador,
were without foundation.

Reviews Irrigation in West

Joseph NJ Carey of Cheyenne. Wyo.,
former United States senator and one of
the biggest men of the west in irriga-
tion matters, took a very optimistic
view of reclamation work yesterday at
the st. Francis hotel.
Not only is Carey the father of state
hood In Wyoming. having introduced
the bill in congress that became a law
admitting Wyoming as a state. but he
is the author of the Carey act. which
has done so much to advance the rec
lamation OF the arid lands OF the west.
I'm an enthusiast on irrigation" said
Carey. The irrigation projects now
under way in Wyoming will probably
cost $4,000 .00e." %hEdZER

ROOSEVELT PARTY
ON HALF RATIONS
Long Tramp Across Waterless
Waste Depletes Their Store
of Provisions
Intrepid Leader Shoots Hippo at
Close Range as the
Beast Charges

NAIVASHA, Africa, Sunday July 1s
Theodore Roosevelt and his party had
not been expected to reach Saigai-Sai
before July 20, but having more sue
cess than they anticipated in the Sotik
and Guaso Nyiro country, they decided
to come to the lake and try for hippo
with Captain Attenborough, r. N, re-
tired, owner of the Saigai-Sai farm.
The party made long marches over
a practically waterless country. and
once, when they reached a water hole.
they found 1t was dry. The party had
to go into camp without water. 1t was
found also that the food supplies had
almost given out. and Europeans and
natives alike had to go on half
rations.
UNDISTURBED BY SHORTAGE
The party reached the farm July u.
but found Commander Attenborough
had gone over to Naivasha for sup
plies. Colonel Roosevelt, however, was
not disturbed by this, and the scientists
were soon busy with their guns COL
lecting birds and mammals.
On the 14th the correspondent rode
20 miles on a bicycle to the camp
Roosevelt and Kermit were out in a
launch hippo shooting with Com
mander Attenborougt, his brother and
Mr.. Cunninghame.
The following day Roosevelt. Kermit
the Attenboroughs and Cunninghame
went out in the launch after hippos
Roosevelt bagged a large hippo shoot
ing 1t from a frail rowboat at the mo-
ment the beast was charging.
The scientists have bagged some
fine mammals, monkeys and birds, and
Kermit Roosevelt also has secured his
hippo.
LIONS PLENTIFUL IN REGION
Tarlton rode into Navaisha by moon
light a few nights later and was fol-
lowed for some miles by five lions. The
route around the lake is infested with
lions, and there is every chance of the
party having some sport when they
come in.
Tarlton has gone down to Nairobi to
arrange for the expeditions "Safari"
out to Kenia and Nyori. The party
viii leave Nairobi August and expects
to be away six weeks.
Roosevelt Trophies in Museum
WASHINGTON, Aug. 22.-The largest
and most ornate exposition building
In the United States has been completed
just in time to receive the unique tro-
phies from the hunt gathered by former
president Roosevelt In Africa and now
about to be unpacked in this city.
This building of granite with floor
space of approximately 9h acres and
costing s3,500,000 has been erected bv
congress for the national museum and
is today being put in order.
1t is likely that rooms on the first
floor will be the future home of the
roosevelt specimens. AS soon as the
81 pelts gathered by Roosevelt are
taken from the casks they will be
tanned by the best process for their
preservation for all time.

was started. The school board is
gradually coming to believe that the
best means of relief of the existing
conditions would be the erection of a
new high school building, leaving the
present structure to be devoted entirely
to the grammar grades. IL is thought
that having a different building for
the high school would increase the
scholastic pride of pupils graduating
from the grammar grades in a similar
way, but not to the same extent as
graduating from the high school and
entering n higher institution of learn
ing. All the room In the building could
be used to advantage, as the increase
in number of pupils Is exceeding the
anticipations that were felt when the
six additional rooms were built to the
Central primary three years ago. 1t
was thought then that ample room
would be afforded for several years,
but only three years have passed and
the school is overcrowded. Even with
the transfer of a number of children
to the f.. L. Wright school. the conges-
ton will still be felt and the board feels
that something must be done and the
matter is likely to be acted upon during
the coming year.

WHOLESALERS COMPLAIN.
Requirements OF Warner Champion
Liquor Law Are Disreearded.

Complaint is made by some of the
wholesale liquor dealers of Houghton
county that some of the provisions Of
the Warner Champion liquor law
which went into effect last Septem-
her are being disregarded. One re-
quirement that they claim is not be-
ing observed is in relation to the pro-
vision obllging foreign wholesale firms
having dealings in this state to pay
license fee of five hundred dollars.
A prominent wholesaler states that he
has looked into the matter and finds
business in this state, only three firms
have taken out the required license
The number of whisky agents visiting
this section, he states, Is larger now
than ever, owing to their being de-
barred from number of states where
prohibitory legislation is in effect.
A committee of Houghton county
wholesalers recently called the atten
ton of county officials to the fact that
there were only four wholesalers names
included on the llst OF HouSnton couu-
ty dealers published recently, while
they claim that there are no less than
ten doing a wholesale business, the
other six not being listed as having
paid the county wholesale tax which is
required i'm addition to the federal Ii
cense. The names of the six not on
the list were given to the officials, who
informed the committee that they
would look into the matter.
The wholesalers who have taken up
the matter declare that they have
nothing against any of the outside
agents, nor the unlisted county deaf
ers. but that the interests of their
business demand that those who have
complied with the law should not suf-
fer on account of those who have not.
