Fight 1t Out in Court.
The near beer saloons in Cuth-
bert have been temporarily closed,
and the why's and wherefores are
told as follows by the Leader:
THE committee appointed at a
meeting of the citizens held just after
the lecture in Cuthbert of Hon. Sea-
born Wright, several weeks ago, for
the purpose of taking legal steps
against the near beer places here, if
advisable, took action last Saturday.
A warrant charging all the near beer
places in Cuthbert with being null
sances and blind tigers because OPP
Grated in violation of the prohibition
law, was sworn out by A. S. Perry
and w. S. McWilliams, members of
the committee.
Monday morning Judge Worrill
signed an order temporarily enjoin~
ing the operation of near beer sa-
looms in Cuthbert, and naming March
22nd as the date for hearing the petit
ton for permanent injunction.
This order was delivered to Sher-
if Taylor, who served notice on the
proprietors and employees of the four
near beer places here that they must
not sell any malt or intoxicating
liquors before March 22nd. AS all
these saloons handle tobacco, cigars
and soft drinks the sheriff allowed
them to keep open. 1t is said, how
ever, that not a draught of foaming
malt beverage can be purchased in
town, and in some quarters there are
grievous complaints as to thirst.

II is more than ten years now since
taa name of General Cassius M. Clay
fgured in the days dispatches from
Tantucky. We used to read Of him
- 1903 as an old man with bushy
white name in a state of siege at his
sor,iIv mansion near Richmond, KY,

orns defending the besieged house
ocainst attacks by process servers
and the curious public.
The name is only recalled to mind
now by the dispatch the other day
announcing the death near that place
If Dora Richardson, the erstwhile
child wife of the aged warrior and
statesman.
It was one of the strangest ro-
mances in history, that strange affin-
itv between the old man, the aristo-
Graf soldier, diplomat and scholar,
the scion of one of the prOduest lines
in America, and the little, untutored,
unkempt girl of a poor white family.
He was 80, she 10. He was old
enough to be her great-grandfather,
vet he married her.
II was the old mans dream to take
the untaught child, accustOm her to
the ways of culture, educate her,
make her a fitting heir for his name
and estate. He carried out his part
of the plan, but the poor child could
never accustom herself to her I'M
usual surroundings. After she tired
nf the dolls and the other toys he
bought her she pinned for her own
f3Iks and, when he saw it was inevi-
table, Gen. Clay yielded gracefully,
endowing her with some of the pre-
cious heirlooms of the Clay family
and giving her a house. The girl, in
turn. having married Riley Brock,
vouth of her own station and age,
named her first born Clay Brock.
The events growing out of that
marriage, the beleaguered state OF
his house, the opposition of his chill
tren. the sensations that developed
we're but "reminiscences of the old
time bellicose nature of the man who
twice represented us at the court OF

ginning to uncover.
And all but forgotten was he had

HOBO TOOK POSSESSION OF HOTEL
Finding Office of Richland Inn Emp
ty Assumed Duties of Clerk and
Collected From Guests.


According to the Richland News
Mr.. Williams, proprietor of the Rich
land Inn, has been victimized by a
daring hobo.
1t is Mr.. Williams custom to leave
written bulletin on the register
book with the numbers of the va
cant rooms for the night SO that all
incoming transients who arrive on
the night trains may select their
rooms, mark them Off and retire
without the assistance of a clerk.
A struggling bum who happened
to drop in the office one night to
warm for few minutes saw the bull
letin and realized the situation i'm
mediately; he kept himself out of
sight of the night policeman until
the trains arrived, then he again
went in and took charge of the office.
AS the travellers came in he demand
ed cash in advance for the nights
lodging and made each one pay him.
Some of the transients were old
customers of the Inn, and the next
morning they proceeded to ask Mr..
Williams regarding the new rules of
the hotel. AS he did not understand,
the travellers made known the man
ner In which the night clerk demand
ed advance payment for lodging and
soon learned that they had been bum
coed of a few shekels of silver by
some bum who had moved on to 9TH
er quarters and left the explanation
on the shoulders of Mr.. Williams.

Wilson Says It Would Come
With . Jump
Il the Manufacturers emily Be-
Neved It Was Coming.

Washington. June 1.-President VIII
son today announced hi0 conviction
that any present unsatisfactory condi-
ton IN business was not general, but
was less felt in the United States than
any other part Of the world.
Mr.. Wilson reiterated his view at the
nrst conference he has had with the
Washington correspondents since the
Mexican situation became acute. Ques-
tons. however. on that subject and on
the Niagara conference were barred.
In reply to inquiries concerning the
business situation, as discussed In his
statement last week, to representatives
OF the Illinois Manufacturers associa
ton and other similar organizations,
the president said 1t was his impression
that any unsatisfactory condition cen
tered very largely about the railway Of
fices and that 1t was reflected in the
steel industry and in other Industries
closely allied, which depend especially
upon railway development for pros
perity.
The president referred to a statement
by Chairman Gary Of the United States
Steel corporation. that the general out
look IN the steel business was good. The
president believes prosperity would
come with Jump. If the manufacture
ers believed it was coming. He does
not believe the tariff has anything to
do with the depression.
Secretary Redfield's statistics of ex-
ports over imports were cited by the
president as proof. Discussing the
clayton trust bill the president said he
did not understand the act was to grant
20 labor organizations any privileges
they do not now enjoy. It Is the pur-
pose Of the act. as he understands it,
to define the rights Of labor organixa-
tons more clearly and remove any
doubt of their rights which has been
created by various court decisions. It
IL not the understanding of the presi-
dent that labor organizations are to be
given any privileges denied to other or

DELAY'P0L CREW
stsfansson's Boat, Karluk,
8 Crushed In the Arctic.
Drift of Ice Is Westerly and Not
North as Supposed.

Seattle, Wash.,f June Gable dis
patches from st. Michael and Nome in
dicate that when Vilhjelmur Stefans-
sons exploring ship. Karluk. was
crushed In the Arctic near Herald
Island, northeast of Siberia. January
10 last, the men saved their instru-
ments. supplies. dogs and. food, and left
only the crushed hulk and it's coal car
60 when they headed east over the ice
70 Campon. Wrangell Island.
The experience of the Karluk proves
mat the drift OF the ice sheet from
Barrow is rot northerly as had been
supposed but westerly. Both Stefans-
son and Amundsen had believed that
. ship entering the pack at Point Bar
row would be carried across the pole
and to Greenland. 1t is expected that
the Canadian government will authorize
Captain Robert A. Bartlett. who is at
st. Michael, where he arrived after
Cog team and sea journey from
Wrangell Island, to engage a ship to
go to the islands and bring OF the 1S
men merooned there. Boring sea is
now navigable over its whole area and
the whaler Herman, the relief ship
most available. should he able to en-
ter the Arctic zone. The Karluk's men
will be landed at Nome, whence they
can take a steamer to Seattle. 1t Is
not likely that they can reach Nome in
time to board a vessel bound for Point
Barrow. which place they could strive
to Join the second division of the
Stefansson expedition at the mouth Of
the Mackenzie.
Probably the Canadian government
will send dispatches down the MacKen-
xie river by canoe to Stefansson, notify
ing him Of the loss of the Karluk. De-
struction Of the Karluk will not inter-
fere with the more practical part OF
the expeditions work, which was the
the mouth of the Mackenzie and the
geographical survey of the islands
therea bouts. that are believed to con-
tain copper and coal. It was planned
to have the Karluk sail or drift north
from Point Barrow in search. of the
polar continent which most Arctic ex-
plorers believe to exist. but knowledge
gained by the Karluk's scientists of the
big drift is expected to show that such
a project is not feasible. StefanssOn
and his southern division are ready
for busy summer at the mouth of the
Mackenzie and the adjacent islands.
