Texas Tightens on Saloon.

Austin, Texas, Nov 1.-two new
liquor statutes with so-called blue
law" clauses, become effective at md
night Monday, curtailing the already
restricted sale of intoxicants in Texas.
One new enactment prohibiting State
shipments of liquor into dry" territory
makes the apparent attempt to put
grape juice in competition with in
toXi"ants by providing specifically for
It's t. ansportation. Liquor dealers are
forbidden to solicit business by letter,
circular or in'any other manner in option
communities, Some lawyers construe
this to mean that newspaper advertising
of liquor may be stopped.
The other law requires the closing at
$50 p. m. of saloons!andI of any other
business run in the same or adjacent
rooms with the bar.

EGG SUPPLY INCREASES
Government Officials Blame The Cold
Storage For Higher Prices.

Production of eggs in the United
States has increased steadily during the
past IA years. The price of eggs also
has moved steadily upward. Depart
ment of Agriculture officials declare
that cold storage is responsible for the
high price
Figures issued by the Census Bureau
show that in 1899 American hens laid
1898, 662, 900 dozen eggs, which was II
dozen for every man, woman and child
In the country. Ten years later, in 1909,
they produced 173 dozens per capita,
while this year it is estimated they will
produce III dozens per capita. AS to
prices, the statistics show that in 1899
average best fresh eggs sold at whole
sale in New York, highest price. at SO
cents; in 1904 at AZ cents; in 1908 at 80
cents; in November, 1912, at 60 cents.
Last month they were rs cents.
Department officials today expressed
the opinion that there should be a
national law limiting the time which
eggs may be kept in cold storage, six
months probably being the limit. This
they said, would put eggs on the market
more uniformly and prevent them from
being held for eXorbitant prices.
Further, it was declared that shipment
of eggs from one State to another except
to retail dealers should be prohibited so
as to prevent evasions of the proposed
storage limit law.

TRAMPED ON TAIL OF A PANTHER
Exciting Experience of a Garrett,
County Man a Few Years AGO.

George Shockey's encounter with a
panther while crossing Great Savage
mountain, recently, has revived stories
about panther, probably the same
animal, being seen at various times
during the last decade or two IN adjacent
portions of Somerset county, Pa.
N. B. Hechler of Sippleville, who re-
turned from tour through the wilds
of Garrett county last week, states that
the story about Mr.. Shockey and the
panther has been read with much inter
est by the natives OF that section, as it
recalled to them the adventure of one of
their number, Oscar Broadwater, with
one of the big mountain cats.
Mr.. Broadwater, who lives near SUIT
ton, Md, so the story goes, and an
other man were driving through the
woods in buggy six or seven years ago,
when big panther darted across the
road in front of them and disappeared
with howl in the brush. Being curious
so see where the anamal went. Mr..
Broadwater turned the lines over to his
companion and started on a reconnois-
ance through the woods.
He had walked for some distance
without seeing any signs of the panther,
and was about to turn back when he
tramped on something alive and behold
it was the panther's tail which protrud-
ed from thicket in which the beast
was lying.
The animal seemed as much surprised
and frightened as was Mr.. Broadwater
at this unexpected encounter. 1t gave
a mighty yell as 1t jumped to its feet
and removed Its tail from the proximity
of Mr.. Broadwater's pedal extermities
at rapid rate Broadwater made
tracks in the opposite direction as fast
as he could go. He did not want anv
closer acquaintance with a panther that
allowed its tail to be tramped upon

Shift Stars on U. S. Flag.

A new arrangement of stars in the
American flag has been accepted by the
War Department. The design is some
what on the order of the Union Jack
and is so placed as to give more room on
the blue field for the additional States
which come into the Union. In the
centre is huge five-pointed star com
posed of l3 stars, representing the 13
original States. About this design is a
circle of stars representing the other 35
States.
A miniature flag with the new star
arrangement has been presented to
President Wilson by WAYNE Whipple,
of Washington, for his approval.

Rabbits Shipped By Parcel Post.

Few people have an idea of the value
of the parcel post to the country mer-
chants and farmers. As an illustration,
W..Lee Judd. the Rattleburg merchant
has recently shipped 100 pounds of
rabbits by parcel post to Baltimore. He
puts them in packages of 20 pounds,
which is the limit of weight in the first
zone and mailed them from his store, at
a cost of "a cents to each package. One
man sent from Luray to Baltimore Is
pounds of eggs packed in cheese box.
which is equivalent to saying that ten
or twelve dozen eggs were shipped to
Baltimore for % cents. A Luray man
has been shipping two dozen eggs in
regular egg packers to Washington for
ii cents the package. Fresh sausage
and pudding have been sent to city
friends by Page county people who are
fortunate enough to have pigs of their
own to butcher. By paying 5 cents
extra, packages that are properly wrap
ped can be insured against loss to the
maximum amount of $25.
