Clean Sheets VIII Ornament Theit
COucheS.

Americas travelling men are in
glee at the passage of the clean sheet
bill by the Legislature, which, in
sures them sweet repose after a day
of laborious toll on the road. The
bill requires that the sheets on no,
tel beds occupied by transients be
changed daily, and any violation OF
the act is misdemeanor. This is the
measure for which Col Max Banner
has fought valiantly for two years
and in the consciousness of duty Wei
done he can now lie down in the coun-
try hotel, draw the fresh sheets about
his Willowy form and sing to quiet
and peaceful repose.

COTTON MILLS COMBINE
TO PUT AN END TO GAMBLING
Mills viii Buy in Bulk at First Hand
Hereafter.

New York August 4-To protect
themselves against gamblers in cot
ton, if not eventually to eliminate
them entirely. was one of the reasons
it was learned tonight, moving the
organizers of the $2O,000,000 cotton
mill trust incorporated in Albany lasJ
week. The trust plans to make it an
impossibility for spectators to be
come millionaires overnight by fore
ing the manufacturers to pay ridicu-
lousy high prices for cotton when tie
crop is short, or compelling The
planter to accept ridiculously low
ones when the crop is bumper"
To accomplish this the mill men
expect to buy in bulk at first hand
rather than from jobbers and specu-
lators in the market. Another object
of the new trust is to add to profits
by the reduction Of expenses in con-
nection with the distribution of man
ufacturer goods to the consumer, elm
mating the middle man.

Snyder Smith, the young Indian
who was run over by a train in the
WinnemuGca Southern Pacific yard
while attempting to beat his way
east Monday morning. by which ac-
cidcnt he lost his left foot, has con.
fessed that he is one of the boys
who stole a couple of checks at the
Indian school near Carson about
ten days ago. Smith and another
of the Indian pupils purloined two
checks, one for 500 and the other
for $40, drawn in favor of the en-
ploycs of the school. They made
their getaway and a~fterward tried
to cash the checks at Sparks, but
failed. They then headed east and
the officers along the line were
notified and have been on the out
look for them. After Smith was
hurt here he was taken to the county
hospital, where he confessed ycstcr-
day to Sheriff Lamb that he was one
of the boys who had stolen the
checks at the Indian school. Smith
said that he and his companion hat
given the checks to a man at Hazcn
the latter agreeing TO cash them
but the man kept the checks. Smitl
