DRINKING |S INCREASING
THIS RESULT.I CAUSED BY PRO-
 HIBITlON, SAYS GILMORE.
These Laws Cause Purchase of ntoxi- cants in Wholesale Quantities,
 Says License Official.

Louisville, Ky, Oct "A detailed statement of the consumption of alco- holic beverages by the people of the United States for the last F years has been published here from the headquarters of the National Model License league
 The statement includes census bu- reau estimates for each year ;also the tabulation of the per capita consump- tion of tax-paid whisky and beer for each year.
 The leagues figures show an in crease of 7,040,S31 gallons in the con sumption of whisky and of over 97,OO0,O0O gallons in the consumption of beer in the fiscal year 1913, as com pared with last year. Commenting OF the situation, T. NJ. Gilmore, presi- dent of the league, says:
 "The friends of prohibition are seri- ously claiming that the increase in the consumption of whisky as indi- cated by the United States commis sioner's report, is due to forced with drawals of S-year-old whisky from bond. It is true that some whisky was forced out of bond in 1913, but this is the case every year.
 "The total amount of whisky forced out in the fiscal year 1913 was 2,730 040 gallons, taX-paid gauge. The total amount forced out in the fiscal year 1912 was 2,609,902 gallons, tax-paid gauge The increase in forced with drawafs was only k20,13S gallons. It is not possible to explain away 9 ,O00,Q00gallon increase by an item of 120,13S gallons.
 The use of beer increased nearly 100,000,000 gallons in the last fiscal year, but no beer was forced on the market for the simple reason that there is no bonded period for fer mented liquors
 "The simple truth is that prohibi- tion causes people to buy in whole sale quantities and to drink accord ingly."

He says 1t IS the lowest tariff meas ure in more than 50 years, or since the Walker bill. which was passed during the Buchanan administration and repealed when the war of the re- bellion made it necessary for the United States government to raise more funds.
 Customs Income $27o,oOo,ooo.
 It is estimated that for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1914, the GUS toms revenues under the Underwood bill will have totaled $270,000,000; the corporation tax will have netted $3S,000,000 and the new income tax S66,000,000; and that the total reve- nues of the government will have been S1.029,000. .000. Deducting the esti- mated expenditures, there should, at the end of the fiscal year, be a sur plus of $16,000,000.
 With the exception of sugar and wool, all of the customs changes made in the Underwood bill will be operative at once, provided the presi dent signs the7S90$ 123456 1890 operative at once. The new duties on wool will go into effect on Jan. 1, and sugar will be entered in the free list in 1916.
 Duty on JeweIry Reduced.
 Ordinary jewelry is approved by the Democratic congress. The law makers reduced the duty from 75 per cent to so per cent.
 The tax on fine laces was un- touched.
 The duty on cotton corsets was re duced from 50 to 90 per cent.
 The tax on Bibles, heretofore 25 per cent, is removed The Democrats look upon them, they argued, as a necessity in the home. Stained glass windows for churches also are placed on the free list.
 Sewing machines are placed on the free list
 Bread and meat are placed on the free list Wheat flour and potatoes from all countries which do not i'm pose a tax on American products Of this character also are free. Canada imposes a tax on these products.

|STRANGE LADY IN BLACK ,
By LAURA L. HlNklEY.

The boy was trudging home from days fishing when he saw her com ing down the river road. All in black from head to foot, her figure moved against the red sunset sky, tall and slender and very graceful, walking eiastically as if upborne by vigor and youth. The boy noted curiously the heavy black veil drawn across her face. He was about to cross the in- tersection of their ways when she lift ed her hand and beckoned him.
 Bashfully, shifting the pole on his shoulder. the boy approached. He and she were all the human life in the landscape except the darkening village roofs and chimneys beyond the turn.
 You know where all the people live in town, don't you. dear?" she asked, throwing back her veil.
 Her voice was sweet and seductive: :: her face beautiful beyond all the lad S experience.
 Yes, sir" he stammered, blushing. Yes. 'um."
 DO you know where Mir Hurst lfVes?"
 Judge Hurst?"
 Are there two Hursts?"
 "Yes'm. Judge Hurst, he lives in the big house; an young Mir. Hurst he's his son-he lives on Water street since he got married. He ain't been married very long"
 The boy stopped, astounded at what he saw. The beautiful face fronted him steadily, but the blood went out of it, leaving it thinner and older.

Then with a sort of ripple, the soul came back.
 q beg your pardon, dear! am listening now. Whom did MT. Hurst marry"
 "Belle Daly. They had an awful finc weddin' I guess Dalys was glad Bella get him. She's awful pretty"
 "Prettier than I am?"
 Nom" faltered the boy Then, breathlessly, he essayed his first con- pliment. They ain't nobody-pret- tier'n you!"
 She laughed with a flash of sweet ness over her whole face, and dew of tears in her eyes. Putting one soft hand under the boys chin, she stopped and kissed him on the mouth. There by she sealed him hers, body and soul
 Will you do something for me?"
 Yes, ma 'ami"
 T want you to take a letter to MT. Hurst for me. Wait while I write it."
 She sat down on stump of tree, and wrote with lead pencil on her knee. It did not take long.
 Can you give that to MT. Hurst without letting anyone see, not even his new wife? Do not tell anyone that you have seen me. Bring back MT. Hurst's answer. I will wait for you here"
 As he went lingeringly, the boy wheeled on one bare, irresolute heel to look at her. She was sitting mo- tionless on the stump with one clenched hand pressed hard against her breast
 q ain't cold" thought the boy, but Pm a-shiverin' all over! An now ain't shiverin', I'm hot! Wonder If ketched somethin'! Gee! Ain't she queer-an' lovely!"
 He saw young Mir. Hurst, with his youthful burly figure, his curly head and handsome, hard countenance, down town, followed into a quiet side street. and timidly accosted him.
 ID you!" said young MT. Hurst. What do you want?"
 The boy silently proffered the let ter.
 Young Mir Hurst swore repeatedly on reading 1t. He tore a leaf from his note book and scribbled an an- swer.
 There! Take her that! And mind you hold your tongue!"
 It was so dark when the lady in black rose to meet the boy, that she could hardly see to read the note. She embarrassed him with the gra- ciousnes of her thanks.
 T 'xpect I'll git licked fer stayin' out so late.'
 Are you going to tell?" she asked. fixing him with her wonderful eyes.
 No, ma'am."
 Not even if they whip you, or tor ment you, or put you in jail? What ever happens?"
 No, ma'am," he repetated. huskily.
 T have no money to give you," she said, considering.
 The boy threw back his head proud ly above his aching throat
 q don't want no money!"
 She bent on him one of her sweet, swimming looks
 "A child!" she cried. softly; then suddenly gathered him in her arms, pressing his face in her bosom. The instant before he raised his lips to hers, the boy felt hig cheek lie against something hard and cold.
 His uneasy, raptured slumbers were broken by humping at his fathers door. He put his head out of the window. There was a tumult of mems excited voices.
 Young Hurst-Found him on the river road!-'Bout ten o'clock-Letter in his pocket. queer, lead pencil scrawl-some woman-Knife in him! Stone dead!"
 The river road! The boy fought back a fearful impulse to scream out his agonized question: Was she killed, too?
 He heard no word of her, then or later. His young honor would let him ask no question, and none was ever asked him. about the Lady in Black
