AuTO TOURISTS ARE FOUND GUILTY IF
 WHITE SLAVE ACT

Found guilty of violation of the Mann act, D. T. OBrien and Sam Thompson will be sentenced at 9:30 o'clock this morning by Judge Neterer of the federal court The jury, in re- turning it's verdict at o'clock last evening after six hours deliberation, made recommendation for leniency.
 The sentence of the court will be the climax of the motor tour from Iowa t0 Phoenix, which resulted in the arrest of the two defendants and the five other members of the party who were held as material witnesses in the case An eighth person joined the party in this city Tuesday with the arrival of Mrs. O'Brien from Waterloo, who de- clares she has forgiven her husband for coming here with Elsie Secor On the witness stand yesterday the young wife said that she did not know that her husband was leaving town when he left their home with another woman.
 The testimony given Thursday was to the effect that O'Brien and Miss Secor occupied the same room when stops were made en route to Arizona. Mrs. Lucille Jay, a pretty divorcee, was on the trip and was joined in Colorado by Thompson, the two having the same apartment at hotels where they regis tered. Other members of the party were MT. and Mrs. H. T. Hoy and | Charles Hansen.

LIKED THE MASKED DANGER

(Dolly Madison in the New York Maill
 Apropos of the "shimme" in society there was very amusing incident this season at Newport in which the "shim- me played a principal part
 A bachelor who is noted for his won derful parties gave a costume ball which was one of the gayest events of the summer. As soon as one entered the portals of the bachealor's magnifi- cent villa one was well aware of the fact that prohibition had not affected his wine cellars in the slightest. Which is a polie way of saying his party was wet" very, very wet"
 Now, there is one young matron in Newport who can dance rings around all the other members of her set when it comes to the "shimme." It was therefore arranged that she should wear mask and give an exhibition dance Not few at the party thought she was a professional.
 That she made a hit goes without saying, and her husband, a bit worse for his indulgence in the cup that cheers, sought out his host and fn- sisted upon being presented to "the ravishing young woman who danced so wonderfully and who refused to re- move her mask"
 Seeing the possibilities of the situ- ation, his host informed the young matron of just what was going to hap- pen, and then took her husband over and presented him to the masked dancer"
 Let us draw the curtain over the husbands embarrassment

TRAVELETTE
BY NIKSAH

All over the United States this is the open season for going to the fair. During this and last month, thousands of county, state and community fairs have flourished, and there are still more coming. County seat hotels that have never had more than three guests at a time since last fair week are again overflowing with humanity. The country people everywhere, having cut the corn and stacked the hay, are hitching up the team or cranking up the flivver to go to the fair.
 Everyone in the United States used to go to the fair, before our cities be- came so large; it was then an oc- casion when farmers and city people met and mingled. It is that no longer. Most of the people in New York and Chicago never saw county fair and wouldn't go half block to see one. | They have no interest in prize roost- CTS and mammoth squashes. nor yet in three shell games and calliopes. l Yet if anyone wished to study the | United States of America in all its geographical variety, he could not do | better than to travel about in the fall of the year and visit as many different fairs as possible. He would learn | more about the different varieties of American people and the regional var iations of American industry in one fair season than in a year of ordinary observation car-and- -hotef travel. He would see the fairs of the Virginia and Maryland horse country, where racing is the leading attraction, and more fine horse flesh changes hands than he ever thought existed. He would so to the middle west wherS corn and hogs are supreme. where tht county fairs are expressive of all the fatness and wealth and snug placiditA of one of the richest farming countries lin the world. And perhaps he would attend one far western fair, such a: the New Mexico state fair at Albu querque, where they still have steer roping and broncho busting contests and a tribe of Indians in full regalis to dance a war dance
 This daring traveller would sleep oI porches and in bath tubs and ca standing up and swallow dust ant wade through mud, but he would b, getting true insight into that majo part of the United States which i outside of city limits.

LONDON MILK PRICES UP
(London Times) )

That milk would be high in price next winter was feared by farmers from the time when the scale of sum- mer rates was announced last April, but the unproductive season removed all doubt on the point Whether or not twenty-five cents a quart is to be the standard fixed retail price will soon be known, but if twenty cents was a fair figure last winter it would be easy to set up a strong case for an additional two cents in the coming winter. The conditions that govern produc- 1 ton have become increasingly ad- verse in the past few years, and peace l has not arrested the movement, if, in- deed, it has not stimulated it through | the increased wages and the reduc- tion of the working hours, the general unrest, and the dislike of exactine forms of employment that prevail for the moment
 The winter and spring will also be difficult in the matter of feeding the herds. The two staple foods of cows hay and roots-will be exceptionally scarce and correspondingly costly even to the dairy farmer who grows his own supplies. The vexed ques- ton of feeding stuffs is simpler fo; the farmer only in the sense that larger supplies may be available; the prices are still to be high.
