CONCEALED HIS IDENTITY.

A curious story is told of how Mo-
hamed Ali, the ex-shah af Persia,
was able to effect his escape from
Austria without attracting the at
tention of European diplomats.
After stating that he was suffering
from govt, the ex-shah and his fam
lily went to a resort near Vienna. He
lived quietly there under tine name
of Khalli until the other week,
when he disappeared, informing his
family that he was continuing his
"cure" at Marienbad. A few days
after man appeared at Marienbad'
but he was not the ex-shah, who was
then ON his way to Persia, but
Persian resembling him.

TOMATOES SAVED LIFE.

A basket of tomatoes saved a
Paris woman's life the other day.
Her husband, a grocer, had put a
flag out of his window for the ma
tional holidays. Weeks after these
were over the flag still hung there,
and the woman suddenly made up
her mind that she would take it
down herself. But as she struggled
to take it out of the iron sheath in
which it was fixed she lost her bal
ance and fell out of the window.
Through a glass shelter over the
grocery store she crashed, and as she
was about to land on the pavement,
customers in the shop screamed in
horror. They thought she would be
killed, but the basket of ripe, red
tomatoes stood right on the spot
where abe was to fall, and SURE
enough she landed in it amongst the
ripe fruit. The tomatoes suffered
but she did not.

How the Author, by a Flight Of Fancy,
Feared He Had Offended
BaIloonlst.

Charles Kingsley was at a dinner
once with the aeronaut Coxwell. It
was shortly after Coxwell and a COM
panion had made a fight in which
they had risen so high that Coxwell's
hands were frozen and he had time
only to tear open the air valve with
his teeth. A. G. Benson tells the
story in a recent installment Of "The
Leaves of the Tree" in the North
American Review. After dinner
Kingsley suddenly said "T have
often thought the the first man that
ever went up in a balloon must have
been a d-dentist.' Some one laughed
and said, What an extraordinary

NE COPYRIGHTED A FACADE
French Architect Sued the Inltatorr
and the Case Was Decided Against
His Heirs.

The strangest copyright question
ever debated came before Paris
court, when It was asked to decide the
controverted copyright OF a house. An
architect at Boulogne-sur-Seine had
built several apartment houses on a
piece OF ground belonging to him and
had devised an original facade Of col
ored bricks. He, at least, considered
Il original, as when the houses we're
finished he had a plate, with an In
scription, placed on the walls, to the
effect that the facade Of the house
was his copyright and limitations were
prohibited. Seeing a building in Paris
some time afterwards which had Just
been completed, the architect thought
that the facade. which was also Of
colored bricks, was nothing but an
imitation of his own. He began a
lawsuit against the owner and the
architect for infringement Of the copy
right laws, but soon afterward he died.
His heirs, however. continued the law
suit, which has now been decided by
the court Three experts were called.
They agreed that the facade Of the
house at Boulogne-sur-Seine was pc
culiar, and might even be allowed the
protection Of the copyright laws; but,
on the other hand, the house built in
Paris was equally original and there
was no proof that it had been copied
from the others. The architect, or
rather his heirs, therefore, lost their
case.

ssThe Third Degree. "

If a woman's devotion to a
man in desperate straits, MAX
ing a pure love story of unusual
heart interest, as shown in
Charles Klein's latest play, 'The

play-goers, then the forthcoming
production by the United Play

be heralded as the dramatic
event of the season.
''The Third Degree while
but a little over year old, has
already taken a firm hold on the
public and bids fair to exceed
the marvellous record Of Mr..
Klein's former work, 'The Lion

producer is said to have made a
million dollars.
"The Third Degree" is an
nounced for production here on
Wednesday, Nov. 20 at the OPP

Psychological Study.

Henry Clay Beattie's attitude
throughout the trial, says a
Richmond correspondent, and
the Imprisonment that awaited
only his death, was a study for
a psychologist. He read the
newspapers avidly. Every refer
ence to his iron nerve and to the
fact that he was going to the
chair without acknowledging his
crime in the hope of saving his
aged father further sorrow, ac-
eording to those that were with
him to the end, seemed to af-
ford him supreme satisfaction.
Apparently he gloated over the
notoriety his crime had brought
him
Even after his confession YER
bally made to the ministers on
Nov. 9, but not written until
Thursday, he maintained his air
Of bravado. What had since
Nov. 9 been considered stoicism
now is recognized as cynicism.
Hisremarkable nerve now seems
to have had tsbasis and support

being applauded as a man of

Standard Oil Litigation.

The suit which called forth Monday +
decision was instituted in 1906 in the
United States Circuit Court for the East
ern District of Missouri. 1t was brought
in the name Of the United States. The
immediate object was to dissolve the
Standard Oil Company of New Jersey.
From the very beginning the busi-
ness and the legal worlds recognized
that the suit put the Sherman anti
trust law to the most severe test which
it had been subjected. The law had
been on the statute books since 1890,
and had been the basis of some eigh-
teen suits finally passed upon by the
Supreme Court of the United States.
That the law was constitutional was ac-
cepted as settled by these decisions, but
simple as the words of the statute
seemed, there was an absence of una
nimity in regard to its Interpretation.
With that situation confronting the
Government and the defendants, the
suit was begun with the general belief
that the entire business world would
feel the effect Of the outcome of the
gigantic struggle.
The Government claimed that two
sections of the Sherman antitrust law
had been violated. The first section
read as follows:
Every contract, combination in the
form OF trust or otherwise, or conspir-
acy in restraint OF trade or commerce
among the several States, or with for
eign nations, is hereby declared to be
illegal. "
The second section reads: /,
Every person (which subsequently,
was explained in the statute to include
corporations who shall monopolize or
attempt to monopolize or combine or
conspire with any other person or per-
sons to monopolize, any part of trade
or commerce among the several States,
or with foreign nations, shall be deemed
guilty OF a mistlemeanor.
The Standard Oil Company OF New
Jersey, some seventy subsidiary corpo-
rations, John D. Rockefeller, William
Henry NJ Flagler, Henry
H. Rogers, John d. Archbold, Oliver
II. Payne, and Charles M. Pratt, all
in the suit, denied the
charges.
