HUNTING TRUFFLES.
In France They Train Dogs to Find the
Priced Plants.

In France They Train Dogs to Find the
Priced Plants.
Tr,nies. like mushrooms. belong 70
the family of the fungi. but are dis
tinct and very peculiar genus. They
are cryptogamic plants and supter-
ranean, their position underneath the
soil varying from two to three inches
90 two feet In depth.
They have no root, stem or leaf and
vary In color from light brown to
black. They are sometimes globular
In form and vary In size from that OF
a pecan nut to that Of a ducks egg
Their surface is watery and covered
with a skin. Their exact method OF
growth Is not precisely known. They
are, of course, regarded as great
Injury by the epicure.
Truff1es are mentioned by Juvenal,
Pllny, Plutarch and Martial The
Athenian epicures were acquainted
with them. and story is told of bon
viyant who freed a whole family of
slaves who had invented a delicious
method of preparing them.
France has the credit of producing
the finest truffies. Dogs are commonly
bred to search for them.
The method of "breaking" these
dogs Is to give them for a time pieces
Of truffies every morning before they
are allowed to partake of any other
:ood. After certain period, when
their appetite for truffles increases,
pieces are hidden In the ground, and
they are made to find them. Thus
they are gradually taught their busi-
ness, though it often takes as long as
eighteen months before dog becomes
skilled In the art.
In some parts of France-Poitou and
perlgord. for instance-pigs are train
ed for truffie hunting, and by some
they are deemed to be better fitted
for this work than dogs. - Harper's
Weekly.

CONFIDENCE MAN
!. GETS TOO CONFIDENT

1t least one confidence man and
all-arounl sharp will not ply his trade
in this city during the fair week but
will instead languish in durance vila
while the festivities are going on
within his cell. William Z. Webb is
the name this character assumes and
his downfall is the result of working
his game too far. His first action on
arriving in the city was to apply for
la position on the police force but he
reckoned without Chief Gurdane's
ability 10 size up man. He was in
formed that the city was not in the
habit of hiring strangers for police
protection and the officers were no.
titled to watch his actions.
As a result he was soon discovered
lat work by Officer Kearney and taken
to jail. He was given his liberty on
his promise to leave the city but.
when he failed to do so, he was again
taken up and this time his promise
did not suffice. Acting Judge HALEY
sentenced him to spend five days in
Jail where he will have no opportun-
.ity to practice his arts of buncoing.

Governor Hay, OF Washington
Criticizes Laxity at Chief
Executives Meet.
ADVOCATES RESIDENCE AND
RE-MARRIAGE LIMITS
Extension of Power and Increased
Weight of Executive Veto, Also
Advocated by Montana Governor
Governor Wilson TO Entertain.

Spring Lake, n. J., Sept. 12.-Gov-
ernor Hay of Washington, who is at
tending the House of Governors which
began today, speaking on the move
ment for uniform divorce laws, which
he started, said: "To a certain point
divorce is alright The evil lies in the
laxity with which they are obtained
and the ease with which Divorces re-
marry. Existing conditions are
travesty on justice, for man or wo-
man who cannot do certain things in
one state can cross the line and do
what their own state prohibits. 1 be-
lieve there should be a minimum
residence limit and time limit for re-
marriages.
Governor Norris of Montana ad-
dressing the convention, recommended
extending the powers Of governors
and increasing the weight Of execu-
tive veto.
The five days of the session will be
devoted to discussion Of questions now
uppermost in the minds of statesmen.
Both republican and democratic ex-
ecutives are meeting on common
from partisan bias. Social affairs
will be kept in the background and
the meeting will be strictly business"
Governor Woodrow Wilson Of New

gram is by Governor Augustus +. VIII
son Of Kentucky on Possibilities Of
the Governors Conference" Other
Tapers scheduled to be read are by

tives."

CONFER WITH GOlIPERS
Macilhists' Union Executive Commit
tee put Matter of Benefits for
Striking Employees Up to Conven-

Portland, Ore, Sept. 12.-Leaders
Of organized labor today came out
with charge that the Southern Pa
cific Railroad Company has been dis
eliminating against union shopmen
for months, despite assertions to the
contrary.
They base the charges on a letter
which it is claimed j. p. O'Brien,
head of the Hartman system in the
northwest, wrote to General Manager
kruttschnitt, in which he said that
Mes7rs. Mohler and Bancroft were
agreeable to the plan to raise the
salaries Of agents and operators who
are not members of unions. The let
ter was dated April 3, 1911.
Assistant General Manager Buckley
OF the Hartman lines admitted the
letter story was true, but said that
there was no discrimination, but that
the wages of unorganized employees
had been made voluntarily, by the
company and that organized employ
ees, but short time before had been
given a raise.
