possibilities. Such rooms nowadays
are seldom or never %carpeted. The
floor is hard wood with a finish that

floor Is nice enough to leave without
any covering whatever; but no one
likes a bare floor because of the noise

the wall and ceiling decorations.
There is a good deal in proportioning
rugs to the size OF the room. This

English Actor Finds Profit cnc
Amusement in Kidding Farmers

A curious way OF spending a holt
day has been invented by a we'll

in R%adnorshire, Wales. and they ara

hunting moles with the object Of OBJ
tanning a moleskin coat for the lady.
The actor in question is Stewart

have already killed 400 moies. It was
during a visit to a friend at Builth

Another feature OF this house that

ground, where thirty traps had been
laid. Fifteen moles had all been

tunnels. Then came the work of re-

placed between the two openings OF

"Corners" to Be Prosecuted

WASHINGTON, Jan. S.-The days
Of corners" such as the famous
Hutchinson and Letter corners in
wheat, James A. Patterns corners in
wheat and cotton and Dan Sully's cor
ner in cotton, were brought to an end
when the supreme court held that the
men who attempt them in the future
may be criminally prosecuted under the
Sherman antitrust law.
The courts opinion was handed
down in the so-called Patton "cotton
corner" case, in which James A. Pat
ton, Eugene G. Scales, Frank B. Hayne.
Col. Robert M. Thompson, Sydney ].
Harmon, Morris Rothchild, L. A. Kittle
and William P. Brown were indicted
for manipulating a corner in cotton in
1910. The supreme court sent the case
back to the southern district Of New
York for trial.
The profits realized in the Patten
cotton corner were given as 100000
900.
Under the supreme courts interpre-
tation Of the Sherman act, it is not
necessary that the government allege
specific intent on the part Of the con-
spirators TO obtain control Of all the
available supply Of commodity and to
innate prices.
"As is shown by prior uecisions OF
:his court" says the opinion, "the con-
spirators must be held to have intend
ed the necessary and direct consc
quences of their acts and cannot he
held to say the contrary"
The alleged violation Of the Sherman
law was set forth in the inulctment in
eight different ways in as many counts.
and the United States circuit court for
southern New York held insufficient
four counts, as not stating an offense.
The government appealed to the su-
~ ciIiC Ooui l. ilC CoHtloNtlSS III tilt
supreme court narrowed down to the
validity Of the third and seventh counts
The third count merely stated an al
legged conspiracy to buy cotton, and
omitted to charge agreement to with
mold cotton or to sell in any particula"
manner. The seventh count was the
cne specifically charging the defendants
with running corner on cotton fu :
lures. The lower court held that such
corner did not produce effects direct
enough on interstate commerce to
bring it within the Sherman antitrust
law.

TO ExPEND MANY THOUSANDS
FOR BEAUTIFUL SPECTACLE

WASHINGTON, Jan. 8-Prepara-
tions are being made for what It is
declared will be the most beautiful
pageant ever staged in America. 1t
will be in the interest Of woman suf-
frage and will take place March 3,
the day preceding the Inauguration Of
President Wilson. At the outset there
seemed to be a disposition on the part
Of the police authorities to refuse per-
mission for the use OF Pennsylvania
I avenue owing to the possible conflict
with the regular inaugural ceremonies,
but it now seems as if the threatened
obstacle would be overcome.
Many thousands Of dollars will be
expended by the suffrage workers in
staging their great pageant. Here are
some OF the estimates arrived at by
the preliminary work Of the committee ::
Materials for more than a thousand
medieval costumes for the actors in
the pageant win be required. Hundred,
OF caps and gowns will be purchased
for the several contingents OF college
women who will march with hundreds
Of banners
Material will be required for the
construction Of 25 beautiful floats,
which hundreds Of horses will draw.
The pageant is to be in the nature
OF GROWING Of all that has gone
before. Officers Of the congressional
committee and leading women suffrage
workers from all over the nation want
to have as many Of their rank and
lie present as possible.
The pageant is to be a celebration
OF triumph, an announcement by the
women that they believe the time is
near when all over the United States
the ballot will be given them, and it
is to represent their pledge to use the
ball,. for the progress and welfare Of
their country.
Washington to see the pageant, mem
bcTs Of the committee believe.
Among the prominent women suf-
fragists who are to participate are Mrs.
Carrie Chapman Gait of New York
Llty, president Of the International
Suffrage association: DR.. Anna Shaw Of
New York, president Of the National
Association for Woman Suffrage; Miss
