The story is going the rounds In To-
cal business circles this week about
a certain young man in this city who
wanted to put one over" young fei-
low living out at the Fairbanks ioca-
tion.
The latter had bicycle he wanted
TO sell, and this started the story go
ing He blew into the store, talked
bike" 10 the clerk. Certainly he'd
buy IL. and asked would he take a
check. The fellow from the Fair
banks said sure" So the clerk pro-
ceeded to write out check for $500
the price asked.
Now, il happened that he (the clerk
had no account at the bank, and 10
make the Joke more intense he dated
the check Feb. "33rd". thing no
one in the wide world would ever
cash a check dated that way.
SO the young fellow takes his cheek
and goes into Kaplan q Rutman
clothing store, makes purchases 10
the amount OF $1,000 and turns over
the check which the firm accepts In
payment, giving the young fellow his
"change"-$22.50
But, right about this time the fellow
who wrote the check, began to get q
little bit anxious and when he discov-
cred that II had been turned In at the
bank became fearfully alarmed.
II is said that he located the young
man, and we were unable TO learn
Just how he squared matters. But
anyway the check will not be pro-
tested.
Kaplan & Rutman got good money
for their sales, and it's a safe bet that
certain young man in this city will
not write checks on the Iron County
National Bank until he has an ac-
count there.
Moral-It doesn't pay to pull that
brand OF funny stuph.

WSITATIONS NOT THE SAME
Army Surgeon Explains the Differ
ence Between Plague Pneumonia
and Plague Influenza.

Many persons have held the theory
that the worldwide epidemic OF last
year was really q visitation Of the
plague which used to decimate ma
tons. Most Western physicians have
never taken this theory seriously, but
1t remained for Maj. s. T. Kee, a
Chinese army surgeon, to set the mat
ter at rest.
In an address at the meeting of the
American Medical association at At
lantic City he compared and contrast
ed the plague pneumonia that visited
China in 1910-11, 1918, and again
this spring with the influenza pneu-
monia that became epidemic there
last year. Omitting here the technical
details he cited, 1t may be sufficient
to say that he proved that direct con-
tact Is necessary for the dissemina-
ton Of the plague, while the infiuen,
IA spreads indirectly, the germs be
ing carried from one person to an
other by the air.

II the italian controversy can be set.
tied as well as this, the peace makers
may certainly congratulate themselves,
but at this writing the end of that dis
pute is not In sight. The Italian dele
gntion, returning home, was accorded
wildly enthusiastic receptions every
where, and the parliament gave Pre-
mier Orlando vote of confidence, only
q small group of Socialists opposing
II was expected that Orlando and his
colleagues, strengthened by this vote,
would go back to Paris and resume
their efforts to put through the Italian
claims; but Wilson, Lloyd George and
Clemenceau, according to reports, were
ms firm as ever in the determination
that Fiume should not be given to
Italy. The probable outcome. 1t was
predicted. would be the internationali-
zation Of that port.
In his memorandum to Orlando, Mr..
Wilson said the town Of volpna should
belong TO Italy, and this has raised
another row. Volpna is an Albanian
port. and the Albanian delegation said
its seizure by Italy would start move

and Serbians were claiming parts OF
that country, because Of Mr.. Wilson'S

Washington, May 5.-That it is
President Wilson's intention to be back
in Washington by June ] was admit
ted at the White House. Barring
unforeseen developments tie president
for sometime, it was stated, has
counted upon being in America again
on that date. Also, it was learned.
it is the presidents present plan to
call the new congress into eXtraordi-

If no contingency arises, he has de-
cided to issue the call from Paris as
soon as he is certain of the date of
his arrival in the United States and
then in Washington in time to appear
before a joint session of the lawmak-
ers. These plans, of course, are entire
ly tentative and depend wholly upon
developments in Paris, White House

TAX ON ALL LUxURIEs REDS RIOT MAY DAY
NEW WAR REVENUE ACT IN
CREASES COST OF ARTICLES.
Tax Must Be Paid by Consumer and
Cannot Be Absorbed by Vender in
Cost of Merchandise.

Washington, May 1.-The commits
sioner of internal revenue through the
issuance of tentative rulings with ref
| erence to the collection of the luxury
tax in the new war revenue act, calls
attention to the fact that the American
citizen will now have to pay more
money for many things.
While the luxury tax hits women's
finery, beautifers, and many things
that they might exist without, it finds
way into the pocketbook of nearly
every man, woDan and child.
Ice cream, SOFA water, and candy do
not es.ape. Su6as- sundaes, lemon
ades, which we're Il cents, now cost II
cents. The new tax adds 1 cent for
every 10 cents or part of 10 cents such
refreshments cost.
Then the items of druggists sum
dries, patent medicines and things like
that. Your 25-cent tube of tooth paste
now costs you 26 cents, as will every
thing else the druggist sells that for
merly cost quarter. The new tax
adds 1 penny for every 25 cents of an
medicines, cosmetics, tale powder, and
! everything else. Candy, chewing gum
and kodak films fall in the same class
when it comes to garnering the war
tax pennies.
The following are some of the ar
ticles upon which the government is
now collecting a tax of 10 per cent:
iV1
Of $3.50 each.
House or smoking coats or jackets
and bath or lounging robes, on the
amount in excess of $3.50 each.
Mems waistcoats, sold separately
from suits, on the amount in excess of
$5 each.
Women's and misses hats, bonnets
and hoods, on the amount in excess
of SIS each.
Mems and boys hats on the amount
in excess of $5 each.
Mems and boys caps on the amount
in excess of So each.
Mems, women's, misses' and boys
boots, shoes, pumps and slippers. mo-
including shoes or appliances made tt
order or for any person having Grip
pied or leformed foot or ankle, on tht
amount in excess of $40 a pair.
Women's and misses silk stockings
or hose, on the amount in excess Of S:
pair.
Mems, women's, misses and boys
pajamas, night gowns, and underwear
on the amount in excess of S5 each.
Kimonos, petticoats and waists, ol
the amount in excess of SIS each.
Carpets, rugs, including fiber, eNcep

: principally of wool. on the amount il
excess of S. q square yard.
: Valises, travelling bags, suitcases
hat boxes used by travellers and fitte
toilet cases, on the amount in exces
of $25 each.
: In the tentative ruling on the luxur
y taxes the collector said that the ia
e must be paid by the consumer to tn
S yender in the sale of the article.
Merchants will be required to rende
n returns covering the tax collected dul
y ing a given month.

ITALY VOTES TO TAKE FIUME
Parliament at Rome Backs Premier
OrIando's Stand at the Peace
Conference.

Rome, May 1.-Only 40 votes out
of 400 dissented from Premier Orlan-
dos Paris policy on Fiume when he
called upon the Italian parliament for
a vote of confidence on Tuesday. The
vote was 3S2 to 40.
Thus the lawmaking body of Italy
by an overwhelming majority and amid
demonstrations of wild enthusiasm in
dorsed the withdrawal of the Italian
peace delegation from the Paris con-
ference and went on record as agree
ing with it that Fiume must be an
neXed outright.
A tremendous throng besieged the
parliament building throughout the
session.
Orlando was acclaimed as the hero
Of the hour.
