Shave Spoiied His Passport

One of the most unusual passport
cases which has yet come to the at
tention of the American embassy at
London arose when a w~ell-dressed
American called to obtain a passport
which had been sent to Washington
some weeks ago to be renewed, but
during the interim the owner of the
passport had been denuded of his
whiskers, which set of whiskers was
still attached to his person when he
sent his photographs to Washington,
and he was described in the passport
as bewhiskered.
Asked why he shaved off the wbisk.

PIANO MAKERS HIT
BY PROHIBITION
5000 Wage Farmers Put Out
OF Employment In One
Factory

The following article from the Co
lumbus Dispatch" shows what dam
age the prohibition movement has al
ready done to others than those di
rectly connected with the liquor in
terests and the working class:
Mr. II. F. Davenport, secretary of
the Brunswick Bake Collender Com
pany, Chicago, says:
The immediate result of this wave
of prohibition now sweeping the conn.
try is that about $500 of our EMPLOYEES
have been laid off At our north side
plant, Orleans and Huron streets
which is closed, we formerly had
100 men; at Long Island, now closed
we had 900 men; at San Francisco
also closed, We had 800 men. We have
also reduced the number in our other
factories. AT present our West Side
plant here in Chicago, Twentv-second
street and Ford avenue, we have cut
down from 500 to 200, and at Dubuoue
from 700 to 800.
Manufacturers of pianos have been
hit harder than we have by this pro-
addition wave. We are particularly
we'll prepared to make piano cases and
AN do ii cheaper and better than the
zig manufacturers. The result is that
he little manufacturer, or rather
hose who assemble piano parts. can
ow get their cases cheaper than the
ig manufacturer can produce them.
nd this puts the little fellow in the
aside track of the big one. It has
cen a hard blow to some of the piano 4.
This is simply one of the many other
dustries suffering which to a great
