HAS COLLECTED 5000 PIPES
Syracuse Woman Has the Greatest
Assortment Of Pipes In the
World.

Syracuse, N. Y.-How'd you like to
be able to smoke a different pipe
every day for eight years?
A Syracusan, owner of the worlds
largest exhibit of pipes, could, but
doesn't, for the Syracusan is a non
smoker, and a woman to boot. She is
Mrs. Gard Foster, widow of a we'll
known central New York physician,
who has completed cataloguing her
unique collection, started by her hus-
band and finished by her since his
death.
The collection now numbers 5000,
and includes pipes from every country
under the sun. Among the rare speci-
mems is beautifully carved meer-
schaum with an exquisitely shaped
hand holding the bowl of the pipe, the
carving of the lace at the wrist being
perfect in detail. A meerschaum skull
pipe and a cigaret holder representing
"Leda and the Swan" from salisbury,
also are reckoned as priceless.

Still AGAIN WORKS
GMountain Dew" Plant Has Been
Buried so Years.
United States MarshaIs Hunt Wilds
Of Wayne County, w. Va, for
Giant Still.

Huntington, W. Va.-County and
state prohibition officers and United
States marshals are searching the
wilds Of Wayne county, where a
gigantic copper still is again in oper-
alton, after being buried for half a
century. Fifty years ago mountain
dew" was manufactured in this Sec
ton which was superior to legalized
brands. "Wash Farley's Best was a
famous brand of whisky in this Sec
ton.
Making whisky was then legal and
much appreciated occupation. The
authorities usually ran a small still in
addition to arresting few murderers
and thieves. 1t was no disgrace then
to run copper can and coil. The abll-
ity to turn out good whisky was an
accomplishment, and many farmer
would employ a hired man if he knew
nothing else about him except that he
could make good whisky.

to quit. He buried the still after
carefully drawing map showing Its
exact location. A few days ago de-
scendants of uncle" John found this
map under the rafters of barn.

Stoppage of Circulation
Causes "Pins and Needles

After being for long time in a
constrained attitude a peculiar numb
ness and prickling is often felt in the
arm, the leg, or the foot. This is
caused by some interruption to the
circulation of the blood and can usual
ly be removed by rubbing or exer-
else. Physicians say that the reason
for this sensation, which is decidedly
uncomfortable, is that pressure for a
certain length of time deadens the
sensibility of a nerve. When this
pressure is suddenly removed Gas In
Strengthening out the leg after sitting
with it doubled underneath the body
sensibility gradually returns to the
nerves and as each nerve-iber COM
posing the trunk regains its normal
condition of sensibility prickling
sensation is felt, and these successive
pricklings from the successive awak-
enings of the fibers have not inaptly
been called "pins and needles"

London.-Similar to the principle
of "water WINGS" used in America by
those learning to swim, canvas pom
toons have been made by Messrs. Wick
ers, which, when inflated, can lift 100
submerged tons. Two of the pontoons
recently raised the steamship Main,
sunk by U-boat in Luce bay, wigton-
shire, Scotland. Pontoons each hav-
ing a lifting capacity of 500 tons are
soon to be made. 1t is estimated that
a battery of so of them would bring

WICKERSHAMLETTER TO SECRETARY LANE

But. when you permit the Express
 Company to pile on q s25 per hundred rate. it becomes a crime against the
 development of Alaska.-it is more than 16 times as much as the Washing ton-New York rate. Then, too. if the Government Railroad. under vour management. is determined to go into profiteering on the shippers in Alas ka, why do you give nine-tenths of the loot to the Express Company.
 While the excessive rates imposed upon the public on the Yukon and Tan ana Rivers. at Nenana terminal of the Government Railroad are not fixed by you. they have your approval, and are just as harmful to the success Of that railroad which you administer. In 1914. the minimum of flat rate to Fair banks over the steamboat lines on these rivers was less than $40 per ton. In 1917. it had increased without your ob- jection to $50 per ton, and in 1918, in view of your failure to build over the Bread Pass it was advanced to s62 per ton. And, mind you, this was the minimum or base rate; the actual rates paid by the shippers ran Up to sS2. S110, SPA, and even to S1S5 per ton on exceptional commodities, and now stand at those heights.

And so it is with the food supplies, mining materials, etc, for the miner and homeseeker in that wide and fertile valley.
 h the tariff rules promulgated by you for the Government Railroad it is provided that the Railroad will ad- vance to Ocean and Inland Water Car riers (which means the Alaska Steam ship Company at Seward and Anchor age, and the White Pass Company at Nenanal their unpaid transportation charges on through freight and will add those charges to the local way bill and collect from the consignee at the ] point Of delivery on the Railroad .

EAtortionate Freight Rates

Since April 9. 1914. the White Pass
 Co. in conjunction with the Alaska SS. Co. has had undisputed control over freight rates on the Yukon and Panama Rivers. while the Alaska SS. Go. has ex b-ted an equally mdisputed control ov- er coastwise rates from Seattle to Seward and Anchorage. the Pacific Coast terminals of the Government Railroad These two interests are so Intimately associated in the control Of rates as 10 be practically one concern. The joint and several rates established and maintained by them On Alaska bus mess. and in effect there ever since the Government Railroad was organiz- ed in March, 1914. are the most extor- rionate which afflict American trade, and bear particularly heavy on the reo pie of Alaska.
 The American Railway Express Co.'S rates are also made on Alaskan busi- ness in connection with those two transportation interests, and reflect their extortionate policy in transporta- ton rates. Just a single instance will exhibit how the Government Railroad is used and controlled by those com bined interests American Rail way Express Go. charges a rate of 9 cents per. pound, sa5 per hunlred. for shipping express matter over the Gov ernment Railroad from Seward to An chorage, Alaska. q distance Of only 115 miles.-a rate Of $500 Der ton.
