built with the school children's money
and which has never paid expenses,

a small part Of what it has cost to

 Hawk

Chicago August 7.--Peddlers, who a couple of weeks ago went on strike and created great disorder because of the pas- sage of an ordinance prohibiting them from crying out their wares, have found a loophole. By changing the name of his horse each day to conform to the shifting stock in trade, each of the 4o00 pedders Is managing to approximate the working conditions of former days, without break ing the law.
 "Whoa, Cabbages, whoa, Cabbage howled a huckster as he led his horse down a Ghetto street yesterday.
 He was continuing with the monologue driving bargains with housewives between times, when a policeman hove in sight. "Yure breaking the law" suggested in officer"
 q ain't breaking nothin', it's my horses name I'm saying-Cabbage." The policeman was unwilling to make ar arrest and the peddler proceeded. Late other peddlers came through the streets Strangely enough the horse drawing a wagon load of bananas was called "Ba- nana'

LAFFERTY THINKS
 LETTER WAS A FAKE
Supposed Letter From Young Lady's
 Father Political Scheme

Washington, August ITO the &C., tivity of political enemies, Representa- tive A. F. Lafferty of Oregon, ascribes the threatening attitude assumed by the father of a young woman of this city. The report admits having ad- dressed a letter to the young woman to whom he had never been introduced, enclosing a card to the house gallery and expressing the hope that he might some time have an introduction if agreeable to her, but states that was all the letter contained. :.
 MT. Lafferty says he received call from the young womans father, who is chief cle(k in one of the govern ment services. The father, said MT Lafferty, remarked that he was sur prised to see that the representative was so useful a man. Apparently he had relieved his mind of the idea that the letter had been written in bad faith The visitor departed In good humor, declared the representative, who has not seen him since.
 Another letter come, however, threat ening Mir Lafferty. It was written on paper manufactured in oregon, accord ing to the representative, and for that reason he considers it was inspired by political enemies.

LAWN PARTY
 FOR YOUNG WOMEN

The beautiful home of Senator and Mrs. Joseph F. Johnston is altogether ideal for an entertainment, and particularly is this true of the lawn, on which Mrs. Johnston entertained a number of young women last evening. The members or the young Womens Christian association were ex- tended this hospitality between the hours of 6 and 10, and over 100 responded. Dur ing the twilight hour was the place espe- cally lovely. From the big green ter races one may look down on sunset view which is almost incomparable, ana the clipped green expanse, on one side of which is a. lovely southern garden of roses, offered the most inviting welcome for the early and late callers.
 In a charming grotto beneath the mag nolia trees two attractive young sirls last evening served a refreshing punch Palms and bay trees made a picturesque background and their soft white frocks and green sashes were so entirely in keep ing with the green of the lawn that they suggested two very modern and very cor dial wood nymphs. They were Miss Agnes Walter and Miss Augusta Clark.
 Mrs. Johnston, accompanied by two other members of the board of directors of the association. stood within the drawing room of the residence to extend a wei come. Each gracious matron was gowned in white, Mrs. Johnston wearing white voile, Mrs. Thomas Ustick Walter white point desprit and Mrs. Maebelle Sloss Cecil lace lingerie.
