H ROYAL HOAX.
And the Missing Sword Of the Duke Of
Cumberland.

And the Missing Sword Of the Duke OF
Cumberland.
What became of the Duke Of Cum
berland's sword, which was lost or
stolen at the Haymarket theater Jan.
16, J7497
1t was on the night of the great
Bottle Hoax" According to adyer-
tisement, a man was to play on a
common walking cane the music OF
every instrument now used to per-
lection, get into a quart bottle with
out e~quivocation and while there sing
several songs" besides doing other
things only a little less marvellous
more marvellous that the theater
should have been packed with spec
tators, including many of the nobility
and the Duke OF Cumberland of Culio-
den fame.
The conjurer did not appear, but
one Of the theater officials did and in
formed the house that all money
would be returned at the doors. Gun
berland was the first that few in a
rage q contemporary account tells as
"and called to pull down the hodse,
He drew his sword and was In such
a rage that somebody slipped In be
hind him and pulled the sword out OF
his hand, which was as much as to
| say, Fools should not have ehopping
sticks This sword of his has never
been heard OF nor the person who took
1t. Thirty guineas of reward are of
fered for ft."-London Chronicle.

PRICE OF GROCERIES,.

Washington, JNss sJ;-At last
the cry of the housewife has been
heard. The government has come
to her relief and has taken steps to
see that the prices of groceries shall
be lowered.
There has been much talk about
the higher cost of living, and no one
has appreciated it more than the wo-
men who have noticed the tighten
ing Of their pocketbooks and of their
market baskets at the same time.
1t is all very well for the men
that the government should pursue
the Tobacco Trust, the Standard Oil,
the Plate Glass, the Plumbers and
andd the other trusts, but these
things interest the women but lit
tie, when they see the prices of
practically everything they want on
their breakfast and dinner tables
steadily climbing higher and getting
out of reach.
So now the Southern Grocery
Trust has been brought to account
and its officers are to be forced to
explain the reason for the high
prices which 1t is alleged their COM
bination has maintained. 1t Is be-
lieved that the effect of the action
will be felt by other sections and
will result in restricting the activity
OF other similar organizations.
Besides appealing to the court to
dissolve the association itself and
declare 1t illegal, the government
asks that every n of it's 500 MEM
bers or more be forever prohibited
entering into any agreement
among themselves as to the prices
1t which they should sell the neces-
of life. The officers of the
association who are to be brought |
INTO court at Birmingham, Ala
,ama, are:
President, Joseph H. McLaurin, of /,
Vice-President L. NJ. Hoop
r, of Alabama; Second vice-Ppas,-
.ent F. e. Hashagen, of Norfb Care
ina; T~EEaaaee6rfgfon tt Belieieson Of
ana lReltAfs f sd Secretary Robert
doore, Of Alabama, together with
line others constituting the. adyis-
Try board. Oficers of two big gro
,ery concerns In Birmingham are
also to be hauled to the bar.
They are alleged to be wholesale
dealing in interstate com
merce In sugar, -four, cakes and
crackers, soap and washing powders,
cereals, soda and baking powders,
salt, milk products, canned goods,
and other necessities of life.
They are charged with being en-
gagged In a conspiracy to maintain
prices. 1t is alleged that hundreds
of thousands of dollars have been dis
tributed to members of the *assoeia-
ton by it's officers as a reward for

The list OF curious street names Is
Inexhaustible. ~Bermondsey possesses
a Pickle Herring street. Near Gray's
inn there is TO be found a Cold Bath
square. Most of the Nightingale lanes
and Love lanes are hidden ironically
enough In the slums OF the east end.
But for really bizarre street names
one should go to Brussels. The Short
Street of the Long Chariot, the Street
OF the Red Haired Woman and the
street OF Sorrows are remarkable
enough to catch the least obseryant
eye. The Street Of the One Person Is.
as N might guess, considerably a
rover than whitehall But the cream
OF Brussels street names surely be
longs to the Street OF the U~ncraeked
silver Cocoanut. This in the original
appears as one ponderous thirty-six
letter word.-Londen Chronicle

new CITY PARK.
A Movement Started in Fourth
Ward for One.
Would Include Lakin and Farms
worth Tracts.
LARGER THAN OTHERS
1t Includes About Twenty-Five
Acres.
In Line With Proposed River
side Drive.
.ARGER THAN OTHERS

A movement has been launched by
the people of the Fourth ward towards
obtaining the Lakin and Farnsworth
properties consisting OF % acres of
ground for park purposes and
"knoclxer'' is yet to be found. Petitions
are being circulated throughout the
ward which are being freely signed.
These two properties consist Of four
blocks Of ground bordering on Western
avenue on the west, Polk street on the
east, Second street on the south. and
the Rock Island tracks on the north.
1t is an attractive stretch of land
shaded by trees Of 80 or 40 years
standing. For the most part the land
Is high but towards the east Is a hol-
low which might be transformed into
lake.
At the present time there is no park in
the Fourth ward with the exception of
the City park, part of which will soon be
converted into a dixie.
About so persons were present last even
ing at a meeting held on the Lakin lawn
and without exception those present
favored the condemning of the property
in question which is vacant with the ex-
ception of a couple of houses, and can be
purchased at the present time for a more
reasonable figure than would be possible
a few years hence.
These adjoining tracts are in the line
with the proposed boulevard and river
drive which may be constructed in the
near future.
