Shorty to the Rescue.

Putting Stat Through the Sitter" is the
title Of Sewell Fords Shorty McCabe
story in our next Sunday Magazine. 1t
is a typical Shorty story. with the
wealthy fop offset by poor, meek down
trodden Stat Tucker, whose lower jaw
slanted back most surprisin' and sort OF
faded into his long neck. like turtles.
Shorty is ever the helpful one, with rare
appreciation of the justice of things, and
in this instance his acts were in accord
with his usual bringing the right balance
to those who were out OF killer in the
world. The story Is funny. too. and will
go into the collection Of every one OF
thousands of our readers who shout for
Shorty.

new treaties. held in the grip Of an old
one. where there is no sincere element
of reciprocity. Our treaty Of 1882 with

Attorney General Questioned

of the Sherman Law.

NEW YORK, November 3O-A voice
from the balcony at the close Of an ad-
dress by Attorney General Wickersham
in the audience Of the West Side Young
Mems Christian Association last night
called out: ''Will the Sherman law be
amended or repealed?''
The Attorney General paused before re-
plying:
ST am neither prophet nor the son of
a prophet
| Laughter and applause greeted the re-
| Spouse.
Another voice sang out: do you think
| that amending or abolishing the holding
company would relieve the trust situa-
tion?'
I'm my opinion" said Mr.. Wickersham,
"the holding company system is the great
est enemy to the destruction of monopoly
ever devised by the wit Of man"
Another voice: Does the Attorney
General think that competition will be re-
| stored?"
YES"
do you think the same conditions will
exist under those conditions as are no
ticeable today?"
Il hope not. That will depend on the
vigilance of our friends

| These quotations fairly outline a ques-

| at the inauguration of the finance forum
| of the West Side Young Mems Christian
| Association. Mr.. Wickersham spoke in
simple terms of the problems which con-
| fronted the government, and said that
| the one most vital today has become SIM
ply this-"ShaH the government have
power over all. or shall a group Of less
| than all have power over all?" In closing
| he said:
Opposed to Direct Legislation.
Zone Of the problems that confronts us
today is the preserving of as much indi-
vidual liberty as is consistent with our
| needs. 1 am a firm believer in the value OF
our form Of government and the neces-
sityt of having that government strong
enough to demand the respect Of the peo-
pie. / am also a firm believer in the in
tegrity and capacity of the American
citizen. The people are not, however,
competent to adopt proper measures of
government by direct legislation. We can
not have proper state legislation unless
the proper men are put into Office. and
only when judges are withdrawn from po-
| litical interference can we attain that
keystone of government mapped out by
our fOrefati.ers. No indictment found
against the people is so strong as the
electing into office of men who are I'M
worthy of carrying out their duties"

Famous Snuff Takers.

The eighteenth century was the age
OF snuff taking par excellence. The
custom was general among all classes
OF people. 1t was an act of politeness
for well bred men to offer their snuff
boxes to we'll bred women. Women
themselves carried their own boxes
and interchanged pinches with the gen
tlemen. At fashionable dinner parties
after the cloth was removed snuff
boxes were passed around. Pope and
Bolingbroke. Swift and Congreve, Ad-
olson and Steele, all INDUCED in the
pleasures OF snuff. DR.. johnson car
ried his snuff In the capac1ous pockets
of his waistcoat and would convey it
to his nose without stint. He could
not abide the narrow confines of box.
Frederick the Great resembled him in
this respect. Both Napoleon and Wei
lington were prodig1ous snuff takers.
but Washington INDUCED only moder-
ately. jefferson was fond Of snuff. as
his waistcoat and frill often showed
Henry Clay was another famous snuff
taker and often needed the stimulus of

Powder Mill Precautions.

The one thing to guard against In q
powder mill is a spark Of fire. To
avoid that the utmost precautions are
taken. In the first place, tile plant is.
located SO far from a railroad track
that a spark from passing ocomo-
tive can never reach it. The grass
and weeds are not permitted to grow
high enough around It so that when:
they become dry fire could reach the
plant by that means. Strangers are
kept off the grounds. Smoking is not
permitted in or near the plant. The
workmen are not permitted to carry
matches. They are not allowed to
wear shoes with pegs or nails in them.
They wear powder boots made with
soft soles that have no pegs or nails
in them. An iron nail in boot sole
might strike a spark on the floor.
Iron is not permitted to touch iron on
the plant. This is one inflexible law
Of all powder mills: The hammers
that are used are all OF wood or brass
or copper, which cannot strike spark.

Of brass or copper for the same rea-
son. The journals OF the wheels are
of copper or brass.-Kansas City Star.
