present name and two years later the
present pretentious building which
they now occupy, was erected.

goods, groceries, shoes. mems fur

and fancy goods, this store has served

people than at any time during its
Sforty-four years Of existence. This
can best be accounted for by the fact
that, from tie BEGINNING quality has

Of the SHIPPERS and of the officials Of

between the chine and the edge Of the
head. The seal Of the shipping house
is then attached to the head and the
bottom Of each key.
After sealing the kegs are rolled to
the wagon and lifted on. It takes two
men to handle each keg. as there are
ten bars to a key, with total gold
weight of about 100 pounds. 1t may
be mentioned that 100000 weighs In
gold about $50 pounds, and $1,OOOyOO0
weighs $500 pounds. Some time ago
one Of the officials Of an assay Office
compiled figures showing how much
gold man could actually handle. 1t
Is "A singular thing that great difficulty
is experienced In carrying gold for any
distance The weight seems to be
more dead than that of other metals
although that may be an illusion. 'a y
For instance, the average man could
carry 100 pounds of gold one mile with
out much discomfort. Its value would
be about $4,000 A strong man could
carry, say, $50 pounds, a mile, reaching
the end Of mis- Journey with just under
$4,000. A very powerful man might
carry 200 pounds, or, nearly $4,000. a
mile without exhaustion. Carrying
gold is almost as difficult as getting It.

FIRST AMERICAN TRAITOR.
Benjamin Church Played That Role
During tho Revolution.

Benjamin Church Played That Role
During tho Revolution.
Benjamin Church, graduate Of Har-
ward and member of distinguished
New England family, was the first
American traitor. Church becsm en-
tnent as q surgeon and as a writer Of
verse and was one of the leading
Wigs in the years just preceding the
Revolution. At one time he was
member of the Massachusetts provin-
cial congress and became member of
the famous Boston committee Of
safety.
The committees plans were consis-
tently revealed to General Gage, gov
ernor Of the province, but the source
Of the leak was not discovered until
after the Revolution was fairly under
way. At the time of the actual break
between the colonies and England
Church was assigned toian important
colonial hospital. In September, 1775,
a letter from Church to British army
officer containing secrets Of the colo
mist army, was intercepted: Church
had intrusted the letter.: written. in
code,,yto a woman. to be conveyed to
one OF General Gage s staff officers.
The woman confessed her share in the
reasonable move and implicated
Church. ...'. --' 81 =.
The traitor was taken before coun-
Gil presided over by Washington, and
he there practically admitted his guilt.
Congress, acting on the suggestion Of
the trial council, ordered Church kept
in close confinement in the Cambridge
jail, without the use Of pen or paper,
and that no person be allowed to con-
verse with him except in the presence
and hearing of colonial officers until
further orders from this or a future
congress-"
Church's health failed rapidly, and
lie was permitted to undergo Danish

ICHlGAN WILL BE BONE DRY
National Law Prohibits Shipments of
Liquor Into Dry States.

ashington-Further argument in
the legislature of Michigan and other
prohibition states-to-be as to the de-
gree of dryness to be imposed was
rendered entirely futile when the
house passed the Reed amendment 10
the postoffice appropriation bill.
The Reed amendment prohibits the
shipment of liquor, except for scien-
tific, sacramento, medicinal and me-
chanical purposes, into any state
which, by it's own law, prohibits the
manufacture or sale of liquor. 1t was
adopted in the house by the aston
fishing vote of 321 to 70.
In addition to the Reed provision,
the bill as passed practically prohibits
liquor Advertising in any newspaper,
magazine or other periodical, with a
circulation beyond the limits of the
state where published. The law makes
1t a crime to send into any state,
prohibiting liquor advertising, any
newspaper, letter or other document
containing an advertisement for liquor
or soliciting an order for liquor.
