Cheap rugs, aniline dyed, in imitation
of ancient patterns, are now manufac-
tured in large numbers by a foreign
firm in Sultanabad for export to Eu-
rope. They sell for much less than real
Persian handmade carpets. and are
readily detected by rubbing with a
moistened cloth. which reveals the ami
line dyes by leaving a stain on the
cloth

BOHEMIAN HOPS ARE
PROTECTED FROM FRAUD
Officially Inspected and Sealed
Where Grown

1t is said that the finest quality of
hops produced in Europe are grown in
Bohemia, viz. Saaz, Auscha and Dauba,
respectively. In order to protect the
two first named of these from fraudu-
lent limitations there is special law
which authorizes the official inspection
and sealing of each package of hops
therefrom, the cost of which Is about
81 cents per 220 pounds. In order to
prevent frauds the Bohemian hop pro-
ducers are endeavoring to procure the
enactment of an inspection and sealing
law, which will apply to all hops pro-
duced In Bohemia, well IS those
from SaaZ and Auscha.
The exports of Bohemian hops to the
United States from Prague in 1908
amounted to S235 ,035, and from .Carls-
bad S257,236, total s492.271. against
S414 ,S05 from Prague and S272,032 from
Carlsbad, total of $6S6,S3T In 1909.
While the value was greater in 1909
the quantity was less than in 1908.
Owing to the failure of the crop in
1909 the prices were very high Dur
ing the hop season in 1908, September,
October. November and December. the
average price was s1S.07, $16.25, $14
and $1117, respectively, and in 1909
$4,000. $4S.72, $50.34 and S4S.51 for the
same months. At times choice Saaz
hops sold in 1909 at $50 and even $40
per 100 pounds.

SAN FRANCISCO IS
RISING FROM IT'S RUINS.

San Francisco, after the earthquake
and fire of April, 1906, had a grand OPP
%portunity to follow the example of
Burbank and Muir in combining beauty
and utility. Some of the streets, at
n rate, might have been built on
easy contour lines instead of the mo-
notonous parallels so ill-suited to this
billy sits; but all attempts at this, or
at widening some of the narrow bust
ness streets, or bonding the city for
new parks and Fairgrounds. failed.
Selfish interests prevented any con-
certed action, and the chance is lost.
Yet it would be unjust to infer from
this that Joaquin Miller was right
when he wrote, long before this calam-
ity. that I'll heart of California, San
Francisco, is comparatively without
heart, loyalty, or love of home,' says
a writer in S~cribner's Magazine. Sure
ly history records no more remarkable
display of loyalty and love of home
than that which impelled the victims of
this catastrophe to begin rebuilding
before the ashes were cold, and to re-
build at such a record breaking rate
that the prediction made by both David
Starr Jordan and Benjamin Ide
Wheeler, that in five years San Fran
cisco would be herself again, seems
likely to come true.

LIQCSR DEALERS HEAD
TALKS IN ORANGE CHURCH.
League Members Are Trying to
Elevate Business, He Says.

Thomas C. Hayes, president of the
Liquor Dealers Protective League,
spoke before the social service class of
the First Unitarian Church, Cleveland
street, age, yesterday afternoon on
1.-The Saloon and the Community"
H. organization, he said, took care
to keep out of it dealers who were
deemed unfit. 1t is up to the excise
commissions and license committees to
put these dealers out of business.
MANY who talk about the liquor
business really are not sincere. We
have an A~nti-saloon League, the presi-
dents of which were not natives of this
State, but imported here, mainly from
the West. They generally come from
Illinois. They raise them there. Thos
gentlemen, then, come here and tell us
how to run our liquor business.
There are men. of course, who ought
not to be in the business, but because
one makes a mistake should not be
cause for the condemnation of them all.
While there are drunkards, there is
not one saloon-keeper who wants to
tolerate a %drunkard, for one drunkard
would cause more harm to you bust
ness than forty Prohibitionists around
your place.
"The only way to have the liquor
business carried on is to have it prop
erly regulated. If there is any place
that is a detriment to its community.
we will be glad to assist you in clean
ing out such q place. Most big dealers
are trying to elevate the business. It
seems to me the people who are against
ii are merely seeking for 1ucre. Thes
gentlemen are rot sincere. They say
the majority should rule, but ! say no
majority should rule where the minor
ity is bound to suffer. In an Ohio
prison there Is a bankers row, but there
is no liquor dealers row in any prison."
Following the meeting Mr.. Hayes
was asked a number of questions re-
lating to the liquor question by diff
ferent men in the audience, including
Camillus c. Kidder, president of the
Orange Board of Excise Commission
ers, who inquired whether less stringent
laws would tend to better conditions
Mr.. Hayes answered that with less
stringent laws properly forced he had
no doubt conditions would be bettered,
Mr.. Aborn, president of the social

complain of a lack of number.

Hayes Is not familiar with East Or

tically every refrigerator is a private
saloon"
