Meddling Intimated.

A very remarkable incident has occur
red at Ottawa The New York Herald es-
tablished a bureau at Ottawa two years
ago, believing that the two nations should
become better acquainted with each other,
and intending to give the New Yorkers
daily accounts Of what was going on in
the Dominion capital. Robert Patchin, a
Washington newspaper man. was placed
in charge of the bureau. and proceeded
In Yankee fashion to make friends. Yes
terday Mr.. Patchin was surprised to
read in an Ottawa paper an editorial in
timating that Yankee journalists were
meddling in the Dominion politics, and
rendering themselves liable to fine and
Imprisonment. He made inquiries, and
ascertained that the article seemed to
be inspired from political sources The
incident shows the depth of feeling which
exists The editorial goes on to say:
mot only is the New York Herald en-
gaging in the reciprocity campaign in
Canada, with official headquarters and
staff at Ottawa, but the Boston Tran
script is doing the same thing. in a re-
cent issue the Transcript, in terms, dares
the Canadian people to reject the reci-
procity agreement. stating in plain Ian
guage that a united American press would
justly resent such a verdict by Canadians
at the polls and construe it as deliber-
the United States. as we'll as to both the
great American political parties, who had
Joined in supporting the President in the
matter.
Not only are these two American news
papers openly entering the Canadian po.
litical arena at election time, but there
is also reason to believe that some. of the
large American trusts affected are COM
bining to the same end. and that an or
ganization set is about to be made by
A n ond nf tba+ loo
ing journals Of the United States to sup
port the reciprocity pact and the liberal
party in Canada during the next few
weeks prior to election day.
Hint at Possible Prosecution.
THE conservative organization at head
quarters at Ottawa is fully alive to this
serious situation, and it is worth re-
membering that foreigners in any way
interfering at Dominion election render
themselves liable under the criminal law
and are subject to fine or Imprisonment
| for six months at hard labor.
Let American enthusiasts for reci-
procity with Canada bear this in mind
and govern themselves accordingly"
Indications Favor Laurier.
White / couldn't venture at this early
stage in my Inquiries over here to make
| a fiat prediction, 1t can be said that in.
dications are that the government will

commons. 1t seems that considerable

Nails Give Way.

Milford had reached the back stretch
when the accident occurred. The seats
which fell were of the kind known as
circus and were hastily completed yes
terday by the Cleveland, Ohio, contractor
who had furnished them to the recent
aviation meet.
The stringers on which the seats rested
had BEEN nailed to the pilings, instead of
being anchored, and the, strain of the
crowd yesterday and today proved too
heavy burden. The nails gave way and
the seat boards, sliding forward with
their burden Of human freight, sagged
from the rear.
The whole mass sunk and the occupants
of the seats were thrown in a huddle in
the middle. 1t was remarkable that
practically every injury was done to
ankles
AS the stand collapsed sudden hush
fell over the field, and here and there
onlookers gasped out that friends or rel
atives were in the accident

OWNERS MUST
CONNECT WITH
MAINS At ONCE
PAVING WILL BEGIN ON CERTAIN
STREETS IN JANUARY AND
CONNECTIONS MUST BE MADE
WITH WATER, GAS AND SEWER
MAINS BY THAT TIME.

Property owners will be notified this
week to make sewer, gas and water
&C INJECTIONS with the mains on the
streets where paving will be laid at an
early date. City Clerk Aymard was
busy yesterday getting out these no
tees, and it will be necessary for the
property owners to Immediately attend
to this matter for actual paving will
begin the first week in January.
City officials in charge of the paving
work realize that after the paving is
once put down that it should not be
removed to allow connections to be
made with the water, gas and sewer
mains, and in order that the paving
may not be delayed the work must be
attended to at once.
The streets which are to be paved
with vitrified brick are Eighth avenue,
between Wright and Gadsden: Jack
son, between Eighth and Ninth ave-
nues; Ninth avenue, between Gadsden
and Blount; Twelfth avenue, from
Gadsden to Stoddart place.
Wood block paving will be used on
Intendencia, between Baylen and De-
Villiers: Romano, between Palafox and
Devilliers; Garden, from Spring to
Barrancas avenue.
Granitoid will be used as the paving
material on Gonzalez street from Pala-
fox to Twelfth avenue, and the entire
length of BarrancaS avenue.
Contracts have been let for this work
and the contra ctors will begin work in
January, hence the necessity of the
property owners taking steps imme-
diately for the needed connections.

NEW RAILROAD
LIVELY BIDDING FOR WORK TO
BE DONE ON THE MEGARGEL
RoAp-sIxTY THOUSAND CROSS
TIES NEEDED FOR WORK ON
THIS END OF LINE.

Agents for railroad contractors have
been comforting with Roy c. Megargel
and his chief engineer, Mr.. Berry. for
two days and just as soon as the rail-
road promoters hear from the COM
panies making bids for the work, con-
tracts will be awarded for material
changes in the road recently acquired
from the Southern States Lumber
Company and also for a number of
miles of new road north Of this line
of road. The work on the Southern
States road will consist of straighten-
ing it out in some places and grading
it to a level of the other section of
the road.
Engineer Berry says that work is
progressing nicely and is only being
delayed at this time on account of a
shortage Of cross ties. Sixty thousand
ties are badly needed, he says, and he
Is ready to purchase any quantity up
to this amount any day.

A BUTTON
BAG.

Buttons have a tiresome habit of
coming loose from the card on which
they are originally fixed; and to have
to search in the bottom of a perhaps
not too tidy work basket is most an
noying, especially when, as is often
the case, one is in hurry.
If buttons are kent in little bags
they are always at hand, and if, too, a
tiny needle case and silk winders filed
with black and white cotton were kept
with them, what boon it would be.
These little bags are quite simple
and may be made in few minutes Of
holland linen or silk; the material is
cut four inches wide and nine inches
lorg; this strip is folded in two, the
edges turned in and neatly scanned
to within rather more than an inch Of
the top. The ends are then turned
down and neatly hemmed, the hem be-
ing just over half an inch wide; the
ends of the hem scanned together.
Just below the hem, on each side,
work an eyelet hole; put the bags to-
gether and attach by scanning the ends
of the inner hem of each together;
thread baby ribbon of one color
through the eyelet from. one bag to the
other; then thread another color hib-
bon through in the opposite direction
and tie-the ribbon should be about
sixteen inches in length, to tie into
pretty bows; put linen buttons on one
side and pearl or fancy buttons on the
other, draw the ribbons to close the
bag and you will see at once what a
pretty useful little addition you have
for the work table. These bags would
find ready sale at bazaarS.

For Beautiful Hair
and Lovely Skin
in women's Journai)

('Parisienne" in women's Journal)
Long. abundant and glossy hair is
often the result of dry shampooing.
Soap and water take the life out and
leave it brittle and colorless. For a
dry shampoo mix four ounces of
therox with four ounces of corn meal
or with four ounces of powdered orris
root Sprinkle tablespoonful on the
head and brush it out and the scalp
and hair will be clean, wavy and lus-
trous.
'"To have a clear, velvety COM
plexion, massage the face, neck and
arms daily with a solution made by
dissoIving an original package of
mayatone in eight ounces of witch
hazel. 1t makes the skin lovely and
soft.
For chaps, cold sores, pinples and
skin diseases there is nothing better
than Mothers Salve. 1t heals cuts,
burns, scalds and sores and is a Won
derful cure for coughs, colds and
catarrh."

In her anxiety to set a good table,
many housewife often incurs needless
expense. For example: in the making
of pastry, butter will often be used,
which, at its cheapest, is expensive and
gives no better results than can be OBJ
tanned by the use of Cottolene-the
yegetable-oil cooking fat; yet Cottolene
costs about the same as lard, and one
third less IS required than either but
ter or lard. Lard is still more expen-
sive because it contains hog fat and
leads to indigestion. You can save on
your doctors bills, as we'll as on your
cooking fat, by using Cottolene in all
your shortening and frying.

A TIED MAVERICK.

Lay on the iron! the tie holds fast
And my wild record closes;
This maverick is down at last,
Just roped and tied with roses.
And one small girls to blame for it,
Yet I don't fight with shame for it
Lay on the iron! I'm tame for it,
Just roped and tied with roses.
I Hoped among the widest band
OF saddle hatin' winners,
Gay colts that never felt a brand
And SCARED old outlaw sinners.
The world was pasture wide to us,
The wind was rein and guide to us,
And our wild name was pride to us
High headed broncho sinners.
So loose and light we raced and fought
And every range we tasted,
But now, since I'm corralled and
caught,
know them days were wasted.
From now, the aIl-day gait for me,
The trail that's hard but straight for
me,
For down that trail-who'll wait for
Ayl them old days were wasted!
But tho I'm broke, I'll never be
A saddle marked old groaner,
For never worthless bronze like me
Got such a gentle owner.
There could be colt days glad as
mine,
Or outlaw runs as mad as mine.
Or rope flung falls as bad as mine,
But never such an owner!
Lay on the iron, and lay it red!
I'll take it kind and clever.
Who wouldn't hold q prouder head
To wear that mark forever?
I'll never break and stray from her;
I'd starve and die away from her,
Lay on the iron-it's play for her
And brand me hers foreveri
