ator Gilbert NJ. Hitchcock may find
the road to the presidency a rocky
one to travel.
Men strong for Champ Clark at the

an organization, SO it is said, which
extends throughout the state, to lend
its every effort to land the Nebraska

which reaches out to all parts of the
state. Colonel Maher is now in the

Greek SWindled Out of
S1,499 by an Odd Trick

Grand Island, Neb., June 2s.-(Spe-
al.)-Duplication of resources rather
than conservation appealed to Stephen
Hangos, Greek proprietor of bak-
cry, when two men of his own race,
but whose names are unknown sang
to him the legend of doubling his
money over night, if it were turned
over to them and packed in specific
manner. Hangos counted out 81 ,49o,
saw the pack given the wizard touch
of the stranger, received it in return,
obeyed the mandate not to open it
until morning, and then found 81
bill and some stage money. He de-
cided that he needed the police rather
than an occulist, and the police do not
dispute his contention that he was in
strange hypnotic state and could
not help doing what the two men
wished. No traces OF the duo could
be found.

Wild Silk.

An Out-of-the-way illustration of the
way tine war has affected remote indus
tries lis found in the new boom that
the wild silk" industry of Japan is
now undergoing. This silk is called
habutai and derives it's wildness not
from the appearance of the finished
product upon the wearer, but from the
fact that it is made from the cocoOnS
of the wild silkworm, which flourish
in many parts of the islands, but
which did not come conspicuously into
public notice until 1907, when there
was preliminary boom, following the
RussO-Japanese war. Exports of silk
in general meanwhile, have increased
to an amazing extent, the amount for
the first nine months OF 1916 having
been $92,O77,OOO, as compared with
$4S,S32, 900, an increase of $43,245,OOO
for the period. The increase is due in
part to increased quantities Of the raw
material, but also to much higher
prices paid by the people of the United
States and France, the latter country
still being heavy buyer, despite war
conditions.
