COOMBS ABLE TO
 GO SHOPPING AGAIN

Philadelphia, Dec. 2O-'eHe's not only an iron man, but he's a little gold mine,'' said Ira Thomas, the Athletics catcher,as he piIoted John w. CoOmbs, the former great pitcher, about the centre of the city yesterday afternoon on the 1atter's first trip downtown since his long illness.
 Hes gold mine, ' continued Thomas, because he never has been really unearthed. He has a world of good pitching left, so watch him next season. Coombs is almost normal in weight, and he says he never felt bet ter in his life"
 The Mack battery men came to the city to do Christmas shopping along with Mrs. Coombs and Mrs. Thomas. They stro1led about the big stores, and were recognized almost every where. Coombs said that he was fatigued from shaking hands, but that every hand clasp made him feel bet ter. +e

PEANUTS COST HIM
 JOB IN BIG LEAGUE

Fans probably will recall the fact that Frank Chance in the early part of the past campaign went to bat out of turn and, put his team, the New York Americans, in a position to beat the Browns by singling in his illegal trip to the pan While all this hap pened. Lou Criger was nunchfng pea nuts on the Brown bench, and when the official scorer of Hedges's park tried to arrest Lou's attention Lou re- sisted and continued to eat peanuts.
 The upshot was that the Browns lost and eventually the Tanks finished seventh while the Browns trailed in their dust.
 So now comes the unofficial but au- thoritative tip that You will be deco rated with Royal Order of the TinRCan next spring. Charley Barrett, gossips have it, will go South with the Browns as one of -Rickey's assistants. Lou will be privileged to remain in the Minnesota woods, where he has a farm, and snrfeit himself on peanuts, his favorite dish.

FOREIGN LETTER
 TELLS OF TOBACCO MONOPLY IN FRANCE
French Governments Net Tn- come For Last Year Amounts to $1O5,-
 100000.
King of Spain to Have His Son Educated in Schools of
 England.

Paris, Dec. 20-The governments to- bacco monopoly brought a net income
 to the state last year of $1O5, 100000,
 or the largest return since the foun-
 dation of the monopoly one hundred
 years ago. This vast profit was made
 out of a capital of about $50, 900, 900, or about one-third the capitalization of the lately dissolved American To- bacco Co.
 Visitors to France are inclined to criticize the quality of tobacco sup piled them, principally because they are unable to find their favorite brands such are on sale at home. But as
 F'renchrnen have no knowledge of to-

 Much of the tobacco smoked in
 France is grown in the country it.
 self. The government keeps a sharp
 eye on all raisers of the leaf and the
 whole of the crop must be sold to the state at a fair appraisement. Twenty great factories work up the
 whole of the tobacco manufactured in France, and the right to retail is jea1- | ously guarded by the state. Permits to open tobacco shops are usually
 granted to widows of officers of the
 army and navy, or of other employees l of the government. The widows usu- ally lease their permits to other per sons in consideration of fixed annual payments.
 The price of cigar of a, given qua1- | ity is the same all over France, and 1 the same if one cigar or a thousand are purchased. The hotels and res taurants buy their cigars at the same prices as they are sold to the general public, but they add from 50 to 100
 per cent. as their own profit. There are 47,25O authorized tobacco planters in France, who grow about 40 million pounds Of tobacco on 50,00O acres. The monopoly, besides buying all the tobacco grown in France, purchases 55 million pounds of foreign grown
 tobacco, most of it being American
 leaf.

A French aerial squadron will short ly attempt to fly across the Sahara desert, and the National Aerial League has published the following itinery:
 The airmen will start from Gran and follow the railway lines as far as Figuig; afterwards they will cross the line of oases as far as Aoulef. Be- tween Aoulef and Timbuctoo the line of flight will be across a desert waste completely lacking in landmarks for the squadron's guidance. General Bai1loud believes the flight to be an exceedingly dangerous one, and has suggested sending a caravan to erect stone pyramids at various points for the guidance of the airmen.

Because he was pious enough to stop to cross himself before shooting
 his victim a, Russian peasant who murdered English mine manager has been brought to justice. The story has been made public by an American mining engineer who has just returned from a six months tour
 of the mining regions of western Si- beria-
 The murderer had resented a rebuke from the mine manager for whom he was working, and had sworn ven geance That evening a shepherd saw the peasant mount the veranda of the mine managers quarters, where the owner could be seen sitting with his back to. the window. The miner had a pistol in his right hand and as he raised it to fire he crossed himself with his left. The peasant was too far away to intervene or even to rec ognize the assailant, but he did notice that the murderer, in crossing himself
 did not seem able to double his arm at the elbow.
 After shooting his victim through the back the murderer fled. The shep-
 herd told his story to the authorities and they at once recalled that the peasant who had had trouble with the mine manager was the possessor of a, stiff left arm, the result of an acci- dent. They arrested the suspect and he confessed the murder after the off, cers told him his act had been wit messed.

According to information received here from England the King of Spain has decided, in due time, to send his son and heir to Eton to receive the groundwork of his education. That this news will be denied goes without saying, but the English source is con- fdent of it's correctness.
 The King was doubtless influenced as much by the healthy life the boys lead at Eton and the encourageTnen ent of sport there, as he was by the schooling his son will receive. His decision will, nevertheless meet with 8, lot of opposition in Spain, where the grandees already think there is too much English influence at Court

King Alfonso of Spain, during his
 recent visit to Paris, amazed the French officials who attended him during the hunt at RambouIIet by the
 number of cigarettes he smoked.
 He appeared to use 8 fresh box of twenty every hour, and yet he did not give the least indication of the eff fleets of excessive smoking. Alfonso is known to be the greatest cigarette smoker among all crowned heads. His mother almost always has a cigarette between her lips, except when asleep,
 and she lays down the principle that smoking is great aid to thought.
 Among other royal women smokers
 are the Dowager Empress of Russia
 and the reigning Russian Empress.

Legislature Approves Several So

Moonan's Recall Bill, Including tho

Without Amendment.
Especial Correspondencel


st. Paul, Feb. 17.-Unless an over.
loaded bill hopper interferes or the
hundred and one blocking schemes
incident to the closing features of
the usual legislature work success
fully the output of the fifty-eighth
session of the Minnesota legislature
will be the most radical of any law
making body in the history of the
state. Laws will glut the statute
books that Minnesota never dreamed
OF before. The senate has endorsed
Senator John Moonan's bill providing
for the recall. The members would
not even stand to have it amended to
the extent of removing the judiciary
from it's provisions. The week pre-
V1ous the house put the initiative and
referendum across by an overwhelm-
ing vote and it followed that measure
by adopting woman's suffrage. The
latter body killed county option by a
tie vote, but still has the tonnage tax
and the recognition of the "Bull
Moose party on tap and there is no
telling what they will do with them.

Casual Observations in Texas.

The Union has been asked to re-
produce the following letter, written
from Houston, Texas, by NJ. S. Ber-
ry-who left Princeton a few months
ago-to the Piscataquis, Maine,
Observer, and published in that
paper on January %:
thinking the readers of your
valuable paper might like to hear
something Of the sunny south at first
hand, I will try and write some of
my views. This is my first visit to
Texas and I am certainly pleased
with what I have seen so far. 1
and my youngest daughter, Nina,
are stopping here with my son and
his good wife at their nice and COM
Portable home at ll3 York street.
"Of course in general way I have
not seen much of Texas; I might
travel month in the state and then
only catch a glimpse of it. What we
gather from newspaper reports and
the few that come to Maine and 90
back, does not give us clear idea of
it's magnitude. With 25O counties it
is larger than the New England and
the middle states combined. 1t is
all 'empire' in itself. 1t is certainly
a great change for me from the snow
covered ground and frozen regions
Of the north to the green fields,
balmy air and blossoming flowers of
south Texas.
''Houston is a thriving city, but
rather dirty owing to the soil it is
built on. 1t reminds me more of
Chicago than any other city I have
seen except Winnipeg, Canada.
'Galveston is fine city and a
clean one, with it's big sea wall and
beach, It's fine new buildings and
wide streets, mostly lined with palm
trees. 1t seems to be an ideal place
to live in both winter and summer.
II expect an old chum of the civil
war to come here from Keokuk,
Iowa, next month. We will go over
to Florida and stop a while and then
go on to Washington, D. c., and
take in the Inauguration of Presi-
dent Wilson. From there we shall
probably separate, he going back to
keokuk, where he conducts a whole
sale and retail fish business. 1 have
not decided where I shall go from
6here: 1t will depend largely on nv
business affairs in Brownville. :,

TWENTY-FIVE YEARS AGO

What Princeton must have this
year-electric lights and roller
mill.
Mr.. Morris of Boston was here on
Tuesday and passed many compli-
ments on the village, it's location,
etc.
Mrs. S. NJ Byers returned home
on Monday evening after a three
months sojourn with her children at
EVERY, Iowa.
W. F. Chadbourne writes from
Saratoga, CAL, that he would like to
submit plans and put in a bid on
Mile Laos county's new court house.
Mile Laos county has paid out for
board and mileage of prisoners in
the past ten years enough to build as
good and safe Jail as there is in the
state.
The friends of Mr.. and Mrs. r. F.
Mcclellan will be panied to learn
that their baby boy, which came in
to the world last Friday morning,
died on Tuesday night.
F. G. Cater sold his claim at Mile
Laos lake on Monday to St. Paul
parties for a goodly sum. Foss, in
common with the other boys, had to
fight hard for his claim, but he won.
We are glad to hear that Sheriff
Martin is improving. The man who
is base enough to cut and hack an
officer of Mr.. Martins merits should
be forever shut away from among
men.
Our job press played out last week
and necessitated the purchase of

every radical bill-so regarded by the
conservative element of the two
bodies-has gone through almost in
tact and by vote that is surprising.
There has not been any lodging.
Even the conservative element at
times has fallen in with the majority.
What the end will be no one can tell
1t is certain that the senate will have
the last call on most of the radical
measures and the members of that
body do not relish it. They fear for
their political future
