GIRLS BUYING FUR COATS AS THEY WILL NOT BE

CHICAGO, June 26- "Iou should hear the reasons many working girls give for buying fur coats" remarked a Chicago merchant to the great mum ber of such purchases being made "One of the commoncst is, Well, if l don't get it now before get married | never will afterward.'
 The sight of so many handsome furS coming to downtown office build ings has led to the report that girls arc buying them on the installment plan. Not so in the main, according to inquiry among merchants.
 Tho furs that working girls buy or instaiments, one house prominent m this class says, are mostly of the cheaper grades, averaging in price

LINING COMPANY
 GETS BIG JUDGEMENT
 AGAINST LABOR UNION

FORT SMITH, Ark, May S. Verdict for the Pennsylvania Mining company for $lO0,OOO actual damages against district No. 26, United Mine Workers of America, and union locals n three Arkansas counties, was re- urned in the Federal court here. Undcr the Sherman Act, the judge ncnt against the defendants will be ripled, to aggregate S3OO,0OO, court officials explained.
 The mining company operated a mine under the "open shop policy, and strike was called, and in the suit growing out of the strike the company charged conspiracy to de- stroy it's property and business.

around several hundred dollars. Now and then, said the proprietor of this concern, q working girl making good salary comes in to buy $4OO or $500 fur. Her first payment on q purchase of this size is required to be $50, $2OO or perhaps more. She has them four or five months inwhich to meet the balance.
 The run of the stores however ask cash in advance. True enough, many have their own installment plan, but this is quite different from the defer red payment system usually associat- nd with real estate.
 These deferred payments are "be- fore" rather than "after" getting the goodS. The working girl who Sighs for l handsome fur can go to number Of ,f the big mercantile houses and select he coat she likes, make an initial pay nent and have it laid away while she S completing a series of regular in- ;talments. When she has made the aSt she gets the coat.
 Many of the expensive fur coats vorn by working girls are bought by girls who live at home with their par
 nes, it is reported by furriers, and
 hey add that frequently assistance is ,ivcn from fathers pocketbook.
 While "now or never may be the teason that leads many young women on a salary to a fur coat, some mer- hants say that the high prices of oth- I 4r kinds of coats is a very important actor in these purchases.

GUSTAVE SEIFFERT HAS
 BONDED RYDER MINE

A Juneau syndicate has been formed to provide the capital for the development work on the Red Top group of claims on Bear Creek in the Portland Canal district on which Gustav Seiffert, formerly of Nome and afterwards of the Cook Inlet country, has an option from James J. Connors of Juneau and John Me- Neil of Stewart, B. c. The syndi- cate agreement provides for 30 units of ownership in the option of the value of Sl,000 each, ten of which are held by MT.

Revenues are raised chiefly from tariff duties. No land taxes are levied by the colony. There is a very light tax on realty in the parishes and the proceeds are used for maintenance of the poor.
 There are no divorce laws in Der muda and only one breach of promise .aSc was ever tried here.
