after 20 HOURS
Miners Are SAFE

WALLACE Qdaho), Jan. r.
Hungry and thirsty but otherwise
unharmed, nine miners who have
been entombed for twenty hours
two miles underground in the Morn
ing mine near Mullen, were releas-
ed shortly after 8 O'Clock last night.
The rescue was effected by the
untiring efforts of rescuers under
c. X. Cartwright, superintendent of
the Federal Mining and Smelling
company, who cleared away hum
dreds of tons of rock to make a
passage through the tunnel.
No word of the accident was sent
to Wallace until this morning in
order to avoid frightening the fam
lilies of the entombed men. Cart
wright was confident the rescue
could be accomplished. The cause
of the cave-in is not known.

HOLD-UP men
KILL HUSBAND and
WOUND Wife

INLAY, New, Jan. Three
bandits entered the saloon of Gene
Outlet last night, shot him to death
and shot his wife in the back ard
then looted the place of $1,000, riff
ing the cash register and operilg
the safe. Telling the inmates not
to move for five minutes, they made
their escape through the front door
The robbers took $1,000 in cash
and departed in the darkness.
Southern Pacific passenger train No
3 was passing at the time and the
bandits may have escaped on it.
DR.. Mangan of Winnemucca, thir-
ty-five miles east, was sent to I'M
lay on train No. 8, to attend the
wounded woman, who at present is
unable to tell the story of the az
tack.
The theory is held here that this
hold-up, following so closely on the
hold-up of the Overland Limited at
Reese, Utah, last Tuesday night
may have been accomplished by the
same persons.

CASE AGAINST AMERICAN
TOBACCO Being ARGUED

this organization, the American
companies in 1902 entered into a
contract with British company,
the Imperial Tobacco company,
whereby the American companies
were limited in their business to
America, and the British to Great
Britain, except that the latter could
buy leaf tobacco in the United
States. 1t was alleged that the
British-American Tobacco company
was organized to take over the ex-
port business of both the British
and the American companies.
Testimony was presented to prove
that the defendants produced 70
per cent of the smoking tobacco
made in this country; 79 per cent
of the cigarettes; 81 per cent of the
plug and twist tobacco; 81 per cent
of the fire-cut tobacco; SO per cent
of the little cigars; 96 per cent of
the snuff; 95 per cent of the lico-
rice paste; rs per cent of the tin
foil and most of the tobacco ex-
tracts, boxes and containers.
Three of the four judges on the
circuit bench united in a decree.
This decree dismissed the petition
as to the Imperial company and the
British-American company, and the
United Cigar Stores company, which
was claimed to be the retail branch
of the organization. This action
formed one of the grounds for ap-
peal by the government to the su-
preme court.
The decree adiudged the other
defendants to be parties to an un-
lawful combination, but said moth
ing about the monopolizing charges.
This failure furnished another
ground for appeal by the govern
ment. The American Tobacco COM
pany, the American Snuff company
! the American Cigar company, p
Lorillard company, R. J. Reynolds
Tobacco company, Blackwell's Dur
ham Tobacco company and the Con.
ley Foil company were adjudged to
hold shares in number of speci.
fed tobacco corporations and en-
Joined them from acquiring the
plants or business or voting the
shares of and from exercising con
troll over these subsidiary compan
les. The government was dissatis
fed because the holding companies
were not enioined from collecting
dividends from the subsidiary com
panies.
The defendants appealed to tn,
supreme court because the petition
of the government was not dismiss
ed in toto.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 6.-Final
arguments over the dissolution of
the American Tobacco corporation
began today in the supreme court
of the United States.
The suit under the Sherman anti
trust law to dissolve the so-called
tobacco trust was instituted in
1907 in the circuit court of the
United States for the southern dis
trict of New York. The proceedings
were brought by the department of
justice against more than sixty cor
porations and number of indi-
vidual defendants headed by James
B. Duke.
The process of organization of
the combination alleged to be un-
lawful spread over many years. 1t
began in January, 1890. Then the
first American Tobacco company
was incorporated for the purpose,
it is alleged, of taking over the
business of five independent cigar
cite plants.
In 1898, the Continental Tobacco
company was incorporated for the
alleged purpose of taking over the
plug tobacco business of the Amer
ican Tobacco company and the bus
mess of five other plug tobacco con-
Germs.
In 1900, the American Snuff
company was incorporated for the
alleged purpose of taking over the
snuff business of the American To-
bacco company and of two or three
independent snuff manufacturers.
In 1901, the American Cigar COM
pany was incorporated for the al.
legged purpose of taking over the
cigar business of the American To
bacco company and an independent
manufacturer of cigars.
In the same year, the Console
dated Tobacco company was incor
porated for the alleged purpose Of
taking over as a holding company
in exchange for its bonds sub
stantially all of the stock of the
American Tobacco and the Cont
mental Tobacco company.
In 1908, the AMERICAN Stogi'
company was incorporated for th'
alleged purpose of taking over th
stogie business of the American CT
gar company, the American Tobac
co company and the Continental To
bacco company.
In 1904, the American Tobacco
company, the Consolidated Tobacc
company and the Continental Tobac
co company were merged into tn
; present American Tobacco company
! 1t is alleged that in addition t

WHAT WOMAN LIKES IN MAN.
Pleasing Manners, Difference, Courte-
81 and Vigorous, Healthy and Well
Groomed Appearance.

A woman likes pleasing manners in
a man. She likes Difference and eour-
tesy and effectiveness in small things.
Manners often make more of an ap-
peal to her than sterling worth. That 8
the reason foreigners make such head
way with American women. They
never forget to be deferential and
courteous, to say the little things and
to do the little things that warm the
cookies of the feminine heart. This
may be all wrong. Perhaps she ought
to appreciate the character more than
the veneer. But she doesn't. The
average woman ism T practical. She s
romantic. She likes roses and bon
bons. Many men give her cabbage
and beefsteak. Cabbage and beef
steak are all right, but as a steady
diet they are tiresome. She II take
less cabbage and beefsteak if thereby
she may have some roses and bon
bons.
A woman likes a man to look heal
thy and to be well groOmed. She
likes a vigorous body, a healthy skin
and a look that betokens a daily
with the bath tub, net
merely because she likes beauty,
though she does, but because these
things betoken good habits.
A woman, If she is a wife or a
likes expressions of love-
She gets tired of taking a mans love
for granted. It grows faint and far
away, and life is cold and common
place, when he does not tell her in
actual words he loves her, and show
her by actual earesses, how much. To
some men, this seems all foolishness.
They think that paying bills is the
best proof of their love. But again,
most women are not practical, and
bills are uninteresting things, not half
20 enjoyable or warm and vital as a
kiss or a earess.-Ex.
