WILL INTENSITY
ARID CONDITIONS
NEW EXPRESS RULE WILL RE.
DUcE SALE OF LIoUoR-MusT
BE REAL coNsIeNEE-No John
DOE" OR John JONES" GOES
AFTER JAN. i.

Another obstacle has been placed in
the way of those who would ameliorate
the pehennial drouth of things which
cheer and also inebriate in the "dry'
districts OF the country.
on Jan. / next there will go into ef-
feet some regulations on the business
OF the express companies which will
render harder than ever the task OF
obtaining liquor through their aid.
Heretofore 1t has been customary
for some wholesale loquor houses,
especially those which make a special
ty of trade in the dry regions, to use
the express companies for warehouses,
to all intents and purposes. In some
of the towns in North Dakota it has
been customary for the express agents
to receive consignments OF jugs or
boxes consisting of dozens of indi-
vidual packages.
John Does Awful Thirst.
In some cases they nave been simply
designated by numbers and in other
cases have been consigned to "John
JONES'" John Doe" or other fictitious
persons, and the agent has been COM
PEELED to hold them until called for
The house which sends the goods
usually has a representative in the
town who is empoweret- to give
written orders for the merchandise so
that when thirsty and bibulously in
clined resident wants -four full
quarts" he seeks out the agent for the
liquor house, and gets an order for the
amount of goods he wishes. The ex-
press agent collects the charges for
the liquor with the added express
charges and RENTS the proper amount
to the wholesale house, making him,
in effect, an agent of the liquor house
Must Be Marked.
A federal regulation which goes into
effect Jan. / prohibits express COM
panies from taking interstate ship
ments Of liquors unless they have been
paid for Or unless the customer has
an account with the house, in other
words it does away with the c. o. D.
business, and it is also provided hat
the goods must be consigned to bona
fide purchaser.
Representatives of the express
companies say that the companies are
pleased with this new ruling, as it re-
lieves thin not only of much xtra
work, but also of an undesirable class
of business, which they have hereto
FORE as common carriers, been com
PEELED TO accept.
Another feature of the matter which
will apply with special reference to
North Dakota is q ruling of the pure
food law in force in this state, which
provides that all packages containing
Intoxicating liquors shall be so marked
on the outside, and shall also describe
the contents and the amount. Such
packages as are not properly marked
are liable to conhscation.

Anna Held Orders Designer to Make
Most Startling Dress In the World.
Anna Held, the actress, is determin-
ed to make her farewell" appearance
in veritable diamond gown"
For this purpose Miss Held gathered
all her jewelry, with the exception Of
her pearls. a few rings, ETC.. and gave
them to a skillful designer in Paris
with the naive instruction, "Take
these jewels and make the most star
Ting dress in the world"
The gown itself is Of the softest
oriental fabric Of rose pink color Over
this is draped filmy silver tissue, en-
broidered around the lower edge with
great crimson princessias. The left
side Of the gown opens over scanty
underdress in paler shade Of pink,
which IS drawn closely to the figure
The bodice and sleeves on this same
side are entirely composed of an ara
basque design of purest white stones.
hundreds Of diamonds being used to
carry out this inspiration.
Where the costume opens from hip
to knee clasps of diamond solitaires
hold it in place. The cloak worn ut
the same time is of a soft gray meteor,
lined with varying shades Of pink and
the same color scheme of red prin-
cessias is carried out in delicate hand
painting. A deep fringe of the latest
novelty known as pearl pipes finishes
the lower edge of this superb garment.

Tslephoning to Stop a RUNWAY.

watch for runaway. Several Of
them responded. and the horse was
brought to a standstill before serious
damage resulted. The animal is val

BANK FOR SPlNSTERs.
eostonians Plan to Make Single Wo.
men Independent.

oootoUtanS ran 20 wake oin9le "o.
men Independent.
A movement has been started in Bos.
ton by Mrs. Glendower Evans. a we'll
known clubwoman, to establish a pen
sion bank for spinsters. which. she be-
lieves. will do away with mercenary
marriages, penniless spinsters, worry
about husbands and jokes about old
maids. She has already presented her
plan to the members of the Massachu-
setts insurance commission and has in
terested many clubwomen in her prof.
ect. Her first problem was to deter
mine the age of the spinster, and after
careful deliberation she decided that
1t begins at forty years. Before that
age, she says. woman has good
chances of matrimony. A depositor
however, may open an account with
the insurance bank as early in life as
she pleases, and if she marries before
she is forty she receives a goodly sum
to start housekeeping with. If she re-
mains unmarried she retains her bank
account and ut the age of fifty begins
to receive regular annuity. If a
woman decides to marry after reach
ing the age of forty she gets her money
back on demand.
The plan is so unusual that Mrs.
Evans expects to encounter difficulty,
she thinks. and some opposition in
making women understand that the
plan is to their advantage. But she
has a philanthropic band Of Boston
women back of her who are ready and
willing to explain the spinster insur-
ance principle to spinsters.
The insurance commission declares
that it is the most unusual banking
proposition ever advanced in America
and that the women interested are en-
ergetic enough to make 1t conform to
the Massachusetts, insurance laws.

70 PROTECT OREGON CAVES.
President Taft Makes Marble Grottoes
q National Monument.

President Taft recently signed a
proclamation making national monu-
ment of the Oregon caves or marble
halls" of Josephine county, in south
ern Oregon. These natural wonders
are located in the Siskiyou national
forest. about thirty miles south of
Grants pass, in Cave mountain.
The caves are in marble and other
limestOnes and consist of innumerable
caverns, corridors and passageways of
various sizes, all of them decorated
beyond description in crystallized car
Donates. They have been explored to
distance of two miles or more. the
lowest of them being at depth of
about 1900 feet below the summit of
Cave mountain. the highest being some
700 or 800 feet above it. There are
many passageways and rooms which
have never been opened, and with
these distant and unexplored openings
the magnitude of the Oregon caves is
practically unknown. 49,.
These natural wonders were discov-
cred in 1874 by Elijah Davidson while
bear hunting, and the greater part Of
the exploration work was done by F.
NJ. Nickerson Of Kerby. Ore. in 1877.
when four floors Of levels were par
TALLY opened. Many Of the old ladders
used at that time are still in use.
Cave mountain. the peak which con-
tains these caves, rises to an elevation
of about 5000 feet and is of limestone
formation. The main openings around
which the national monument has
been created are at an elevation of
1000 feet, but the entire mountain side
for five or six miles shows caverns of
various sizes and in all probability is
honeycombed throughout its interior
like the portion which has been en-
plored. Many small streams are found
at different elevations and larger
bodies of running water can be heard
| in bOttOmleSs pits, so far as measured.
This running water probably accounts
for currents of wind that in some of
the galleries blow so hard as to ex-
tinguish an open light at once.
The lime deposits take many beauti-
full forms-massive pillars. delicate
stalactites of alabaster whiteness with
the crystal drop of water carrying it's
minute deposit of lime from which
they are formed. and broad sheets re-
sembling drapery with graceful curves
and waves that were certainly made
by varying currents of wind during
formation.
In past years visitors have broken
off and carried away many of the most
| valuable specimens. and this destruc-
| ton, as we'll as to retain these natural
wonders as public property, induced
the recommendation to place them in a
national monument.

The Cat and tho Owl.

Metaphysics" said a clergyman. ''is
q subject that always makes one think
of the cat and the owl.
"a cat. you know, once set forth in
quest of happiness. She wandered up,
she wandered down. She questioned
this animal and she questioned that.
Finally, wrapped in meditation in a
tree. she perceived an owl.
"'Owl,' said the cat, tell me, most
wise bird, where happiness is to be
found"
"In meditation the owl replied.
Meditation alone is the true secret of
happiness
But said the cat. ON what sub.
ject am l to mediate"
"'On the subject the owl answered,
which has occupied the race Of owls
since the beginning Of time-namely,
which came first, the owl or the egg.
for, while the owl comes from the egg,
so also does the egg come from the
OWL"

tion-Pian Worldwide Crusade.
The drug trade of the United States,
SO far as 1t is habit forming, is to be
taken In hand by the government. In
cooperation with the various states
the federal government intends to stop
the great increase in the sales of those
drugs that lower the physical and NOR
al standing Of the people. Opium. NOR
phine. cocaine. choral and similar dis
tillations are to be placed under the
severest inspection. The state depart
ment at Washington Is now engaged
In drawing up legislation to prevent
the spread Of the drug habit by elimi-
mating the cause.
1t Is the intention Of this govern
ment to make the crusade worldwide.
Hamilton Wright, the American dele
gate on the opium commission which
has been sitting In Pekin, is drawing
up plans for conference Of the prin-
cipal governments at The Hague to
take up the question of not only ex-
Guiding opium Except that intended
for medicinal purposes). but also the
other deleterious drugs to which
large number Of the people Of all coun-
tries have turned as Offering a sur
cease from the troubles of life and
which sap the users energies and abet

1t Is the intention of the state de-
partment at the same time to bring
about reform by placing the manu-
facture and importation of habit FORM
ing drugs under the inspection of some
division Of the government which will
be held responsible for the results. 1t
Is now believed that the best custodian
OF the trust would be the bureau of
internal revenue, but this question has
not been settled. The federal govern
ment. however. will not rest with in
hibiting the interchange Of such drugs
between states. 1t will place at the
command Of the health departments
Of the various states the informa ton

drugs may be checked and ultimately
eliminated.
