CURIOUS ESKIMO LIVING.

Tho Pallet Rooms In Homes Entirely
Devoid Of Furniture.
FURNITURE is quite unknown in a
common Eskimo home" writes the
wife Of the Danish governor Of Green
land, Anna Bistrup, in an article on
Eskimo Women In Greeland" in the
Century.
"The houses Of the Eskimos are all
built of stone and turf, with the win
dows opening toward the sun, the one
entrance always being on the side that
is least exposed to the wind. Along
the back wall runs a platform. a pallet
Of boards, raised eighteen inches above
the floor. It is from six to eight feet
deep, and through it's whole length it
is divided into rooms or spaces of
eight or ten feet Each room is sepa-
rated from the neighboring room by a
partition of board or skin. An open
passage runs the whole length of the
house along the pallet rooms and
serves for the traffic of all the inmates.
but each pallet room claims for its
own the bit of passageway adjoining.
Each pallet room is occupied by one
family. and there they stay night and
day. The best pallet room is the in
nermost and is always occupied by the
owner of the house or the oldest If the
house has more than one owner"

Too Many Books.

Barnaby Rich in his preface to "A
New Description Of Ireland" published
In 1900, writes: Zone of the diseases of
this age is the multitude of books
that doth SO overcharge the world that
it is not able to digest the abundance
of idle matter that is every day hatch
ed and brought into the world, that
are as divers in their forms as their
authors be in their faces. It is but a
thriftless and thankless occupation.
this writing of books. A man were
better to sit singing In a cobbler's
shop, for his pay is certainly a penny
a patch! But book writer, if he
gets sometimes a few commentators
of the judicious, he shall be sure to
reap a thousand reproaches Of the ma

Il Made q Remarkable Scene In the
House Of Representatives.
A.. touching scene occurred in the
house ofsrepresentatives number of
years ago when an aged member from
New Jersey arose and for the first
time addressed the speaker. All eyes
were turned in his direction as he
stood calmly awaiting recognition. He
was tall, spare and erect. His veneer
able appearance and kindly expression,
coupled with most courteous manners.
at once commanded attention.
AS in husky tones he again said
''Mr.' Speaker there came from the
farthest end Of the great hall in a
whisper, but distinctly heard by all,
the words, "Sweet Alice, Ben Bolt.
A moment later and from the floor
and gallery many voices blended in
the familiar refrain, Don't you re-
member sweet Alice, Ben Bolt?'
The ovation which Immediately fol-
lowed was such as is rarely witnessed
in the great hall. Business was sus-
pended for the moment and the hand
OF the new member warmly grasped
by the chosen representatives Of all
parties and sections. It was an inspir-
ing tribute, one worthily bestowed.
The member was Thomas Dunn Eng

Hines Again on Stand in Stephenson
Probe-Brands Evidence False !
Denies Dispute.
STORY TOLD ON STAND UNTRUE

Milwaukee, Nov. 2.-Edward Hines
the lumber man, again denied before
the senatorial investigating" committee
that he had anything to do wrongfully
with the election of Senator Isaac
Stephenson.
"A story has been told before this
committee that you attempted to OBJ
struct the election of Mr.. Stephenson
with a view to obtaining money from
him; but you went to Washington and
suggested he put up half of $4,000
to put the election over. Is. that
true?" Mr.. Hines was asked.
tits absolutely untrue" replied Mr.
Hines.
1T has been stated that you had a
dispute with Robert J. Shields over
the amount of money Shields was to
get for putting over Senator Ste
phensOn's election; that in that dis
pute you threatened to send Shields to
the penitent.ary and that, when SO
threatened, Shields replied to you: 4
have burnt your buildings for you
have bribed the assessors for you and
committed every crime in the cal.
endar for you except murder, and if
I go to the penitentiary you'll have to
30 too Did any such dispute take
placer"
Certainly not. I never had dis
pute with Shields over Senator Ste.
phenson's election, nor did I ever pay
him any money in connection with it. u
The alleged dispute between Hines
and Shields had been given to the
committee by State Senator Paul O.
Husting. Husting testified he had Sc.
cured the information from Writ H.
Cook in an attorneys Office in the
spring of 1909 in the presence OF
Lieutenant Governor Thomas Morris.
Cook got his information from Dan
iel Haley of Duluth. 1t was admitted
by all the witnesses that the informa-
ton involving Hines and Shields was
based on hearsay. No one stated
when or where the alleged dispute
took place.

LOCAL FINANCIAL NEWS.

Much interest was manifested at to-
days meeting of the stock exchange
over the continuation of bids for the OPP
Railway ard Electric Company. While
there were no transactions in options.
there We're many expressions of curiosity
why such privileges are wanted. Usually
the demand for options is in evidence only
when an upward movement is expected.
Evidently some brokers thin that both
the common and the preferred stocks are
scheduled for an advance. and questions
are being asked concerning what is to
happen to cause such a movement. As
the demand for options thus far has come
from the circle known as the insiders in
the mana cement of the road. the PROPOSE
ton has been offered that perhaps some
combination is contemplated.
The possibility is recognized of such Il
movement being based on an improve
ment in the earnings of the company. and
while the current figures do make very
satisfactory showing. yet this condition
of itself scarcely would be considered
sufficient cause.
Options on the common stock were
wanted at today's session of the eX-
change, and a bid Of ~ was made for an
option on thousand shares and 40l4
for five-hundred- share lot. The trading
was unusual in amount, as one OF the
brokers sold nearly $40 shares at 40, ana
the buyer still bid on. that level ana
even advanced a quarter of a point, but
without securing additional stock.
At the close, however. the bid was AZ
stock sold on u higher level. as a quota
ton lot of twenty-five shares went at
S91s. the highest price recently paid for
such a lot.
