Making a Rug Antique"

How genuine antique rugs" are
manufactured and prepared for Euro
pean and American markets is told by
a writer who visited Bagdad.
The shopping streets seem like tun-
nels. he writes. They are arched over
head with brick to keep out the beat;
thus they run. like subways. up Ind
down the bazaar quarter. Through
those long. sitting, family lighted
tunnels throngs the eternal crowd OF
men, mules and camels. Often you
will see q fine rug lying fiat in the
filth OF a narrow street, ground be-
meath the tramp OF men and beasts.
but there is method in this. Foreign.
ers make Oriental rugs. bright and
new, in Persia, and sell them through
Bagdad. Since an "old rug is worth
more, willy brokers have hit on this
shameful way to make a new rug look
old.-Nationai Geographic Magazine.

AMERICAN MILLIONS ARE

big business" interests OF the Uni

making large investments in various
Latin-American countries, particular

in the Cerroede Pasco Copper com

The mineral region of Chuquicama-

of Antofagasta, at an altitude of o.
500 feet, and 40 miles from the snow

been known, and in fact have been

small extent by English companies.

and of unknown depth. Samples TAX

more than $50 acres.
Numerous mining and engineering

the latter occasion he is not at oil
suspicious of his friends, and his too
contiding spirit receives a huge jolt
as did a certain coIored individual
yesterday morning.
1t seems that he had made up his
mind to get married, and after due
deliberation, entrusted a ten-dollar-
bill to a friend, with instructions TO
secure the necessary credentials while
in the city Friday.
When the friend returned to the
neighborhood Of Wild Horse, he in
formed the would-be benedict that
there was nothing doing; the license
had been refused, and handed the
ten-spot back to him.
Yesterday morning the party Of the
first part came to the city for a
personal investigation. and when the
records were scanned il was found
that the license had been issued to
the party of the second part, who,
at the time, had said license in his
pocket, and perhaps put it to his
own personal use before the origi-
nator of the trouble could return to
his home and interpose an objection

House members from tho Sixth and
Seventh congressional districts organ
lied Monday afternoon for tho pur-
pose of working in harmony for leg
islati0n benefiting western Kansas
districts. Members OF all parties from
the two big congressional districts met
Immediately following the afternoon
recess and perfected organisations for
their work during the remainder Of
the session.
1t is the purpose Of the western
members not alone to work for appro-
priations for institutions in their To-
calfties. but to oppose legislation
which do not benefit their districts.
In this fight, party lines will be laid
aside and Republicans, Democrats
and Progressives will join. Laing. Of
Russell county, was elected chairman
or the Sixth district organization. It
is probable that the members from
the two congressional districts will
agree on an amendment to the pres
ent irrigation board act.
A bill now in course of preparation
will put the work of the board under
jurisdiction of the state agricultural
college. This tCl will be supported
by all OF the western members.
