roads and the improvement Of exist

cially so far as Autsria-Hungary is in

is not rich in capital, when compared
to some other countries, she will yet
undertake considerable share Of the
work This win last for five years
and more, and the money to he in
vested will altogether amount to not
less than $6OO,OO0,000.
This money will be taken up In the
shape of loans, and the loans will be

COURT FAvORS "HOSE BANK"
Money in Stocking Leads to Fall
Downstairs in a Hotel and
Award for Damages.

Olympia, Wash-In deciding the
case Of Myrtle Armstrong against
the Yakima hotel, the supreme
court declined to : interfere with
woman's right to carry currency
wherever she pleases-in her hose,
for instance-and to retire from male
sight to remove the same.
The Armstrong woman, after
lunching at the Yakima hotel, retired
upstairs to take from her person
money for her meal. Descending, she
,tripped on faulty stairs and fell.
Seven thousand dollars was awarded
her, The hotel contended the trip up
stairs was unnecessary and that the
woman wore unduly tight skirts, but
the court refused to pass on the skirt.

it rests with the voters to elect
