ness and penetration, is exposing the
flimsy foundation for the claims of

bare a record of extravaganza, par

wrongheadedness, vaccillation and in
sincerity which destroys the attempt
to make a joss out of the President.

HOW MYSTERY OF LOST
 LETTERS WAS SOLVED.

A mystery was cleared up last week whereby the good faith of an accommodating man was establish ed and several financial transactions were strengthened out.
 Coming out of the Koyukuk last September, Joe Oates of Panama, brought five letters to be delivered in Ruby or posted here. All the letters contained money and none of them reached the parties for wbom they were intended. Recently MT. Oates was requested to explain what he had done with the letters. Last week he sent word to the postoffice where and how he had mailed the letters; and on that hunch Clerk E. M. Reynolds shoveled the snow away and opened up the Kinzer building, where the office used to be. There in the old letter box lay all the letters and all the money.
 Oates had passed through town in the night and didn't know the office had been moved.-Ruby Record.

.B|G INTERESTS
 AFTER BRANOE|S
Are Bucking His Confirmation Be- cause of His Advocacy of Re-
 form Legislation.

WASHINGTON, D. C., March A. Interest was added to the investiga- tions of the sub-judiciary committee of the Senate regarding the fitness of Louis D. Brandeis to be confirmed to the bench of the Supreme Court of the United States, when a prominent witness told the committee that it was only the big business interests which were fighting Brandeis.
 The witness declared that the big interests were bucking President Wilson's choice for the position be- cause of his advocacy of reform legis- lation and opposition to the trusts which he had aided in prosecuting while acting as special prosecutor for the federal government.
 During the hearings of the com mittee hundreds of witnesses have been examined and so great has been the number of persons who have ex- pressed desire to testify that the time has been extended from week to week.

PERSIAN PAINTINGS.
Oriental Art That Embodies the Es-
 sence of Romance.

OFlSDIdI t%6I sUdS G"boS0o N"O s"
 sence of Romance.
 No dramatic. no passionate motive ever so grips and possesses Persihi artist as to absorb his whole imagina- tion His sensuous love of beauty can. not resist filling in the accessories Of the scene with just as much care and intention in every detail ns he de"otes to the central figures.
 In the great works of Chinese and Japanese painters. as in masters like Rembrandt. accessories are subdued or suppressed. the color is limited. and the figures which create the motive of the design are so emphasized. 80 domi- nant in tue eye that they seem t" tran, srend the limits of the framing space. they seem alive with all the latent en ergies of actual men and women.
 No Persian painting imposes itself thus on the imagination. rything remains within the frame. inlai6 as in a lustrous' mosaic. The Persian method has, it is true. its own compensation Just as in the early pictures of Ros setti and Nliliais, everything is realized with dreamlike vision. and this is al ways a real achievement for the painter. The freshness and glory thus brought to the eye. as 0: world washed clean. with every object magic. ally distinct and burning with clear color. make vivid impression of strangeness. Strangeness, rem0teness from the routine of every day-that is the essence of romance. and no nrt in the world Is more steeped in romance than the painting of Persia.-Laurence Biny0n in Atlantic.

Owing to the big increase in the cost
of rent and labor and in fact every.
thing pertaining to the running of a
stable, the liverymen of Columbia to.
day gave notice of an advance in the
prices to be charged from and after
January l, next Monday, for hitching.
Instead of dime for hitching a single
horse the stables of the city will
charge fifteen cents. A quarter will
be charged for hitching double team
and dime for hitching a saddle horse.
Where one has his buggy hitched by
the month the charge will be two dol.
lars. Hacks hitched by the month
will be two and half dollars. The
following liverymen of the city have
issued the notice: Walter l.. Fraser,
R. F. Moore & Son, Hays & Wright,
Fred Journey, Henry Tindel and
Manch Watson. The livery men, like
those engaged in every other line of
business, are simply forced to add to
their prices in order that they may
pay the ever increasing cost of every.
thing that they buy.
