AN EXPERTS OPINION
THAT PEARY WAS THERE
Testimony Before the Committee on
Naval Affairs

Washington. Jan. 1.-THE house
committee on naval affairs complet-
ed the examination of Peary today
as to his claim of reaching the pole
Hugh e. Mitchell, a skilled computer
of geodetic survey testified that he
had handled Peary's observations. He
said he figured that Peary. when he
made his furthermost camp was less
than five miles from the pole. and
that on his march the last day of
the trip he passed within one and
one sixteenth of mile of the actual
pole. Mitchell believed that Peary's
observations could not be faxed. The
committee will hear Admiral Chester

ecutive meeting with a view of pass
ing the bill for Peary's retirement as

DWARF AND GIANT HONEY BEES.

In some of the East Indian Islands
and on the mainland of Hindustan are
to be found the smallest race of honey
bees in the world. These dwarf honey
collectors are known to entomologists
as Apis florea. Their honey combs are
no larger than a child's hand and the
cells are about the size of a small pin
head. This honey is excellent. as is the
wax. The little creatures build the
combs on the branch of a low tee. and

LAST OF THE ARGUMENTS

Washington. ID. c.. Jan. lin the
closing arguments today in the contest
before the federal supreme court over
the proposed dissolution of the So
called Tobacco trust. the issues be-
tween the trust and the government
became more localized than ever This
was particularly true regarding the
Interpretation of the word 'monop-
Fkins" IN the section of the antitrust
Law. which has never been passed
upon by the court.
In it's Interpretation, Junius Par
ker, speaking for John G. Johnson,
who was unable to be in court. said
in behalf of the tobacco organization
that the bigness OF an organization
was a criterion of monopoly. Ii was
argued that there must be exclusion
or an attempt to exclude others from
interstate trade by means at least
tortuous, under the common law, or
under statutes other than the Sher-
man law.
Attorney General wickersham. for
the government. said the decisions of
the court itself had demonstrates
that monopolizing was brought about
by the acts of individuals in endeav-
oring to engross i'm themselves all of
a given commodity, and that it has
become a question of intent. He ar
gued that intent" was no more I'M
certain than fraud" which was pun
ished by law.
He ridiculed the testimony of the
officials of the company wherein the
maintained that they had never had
any idea of restraining trade, and he
brought his argument to a climax
with the exclamation: with solemn
visage and pious mien. they would

Boudoir Sets For Summer.

The new spring lines In fancy bou
DOR sets, including sofa pillows

number Of practical articles, are
brought out IN particularly attractive
materials and with pretty minor vari
atoms In the way OF trimming, which
makes them very fascinating to wo'
men in general, says the Dry Goods
Economist
One Of the daintiest Of boudoir sets
is shown in white cotton wolfe, with a
pink ribbon design running through II
and large pink roses placed on the rib
bon at intervals IN border effect.
This design adapts itself admirably
to the various methods of trimming.
Cut into strips the material is used
as an attractive border all around the
square pillow or in two vertical Dor
ders across the long pillow. The long
pincushlon and corset bag have this
border running through the center.
An effective new trimming that Is a
revival Of an old mode, old enough,
however, TO be again called new, Is
the fringe and passementerie border
Of macrame cord. BY the way, wide
bands Of lace crocheted in fine ma
crane cord, copying .venise patterns,
are being used as high style dress
trimmings, and this Is probably respon-
sible for the temperance OF this kind
of work In the fancy goods depart
ment.
