'Em Editor

| know YOU know that young man
who's ays that he has fiat teet. Oh.
YOU must know HIM, because he al
ways is seen in the vicinity OF some
Nat. That's why he has fiat feet.
Every fiat in town knows his feet
You certainly must know that gentle
man who suddenly left town about a
month ago. leaving no change OF ad-
dress" for his friends or the postmans
Well. tell him il you know, where he
IS TO stay away because all those col
lectors that he expected 10 call have
called and some OF them brought the
law along with them and Others took
furniture and clothing away with them.
You cant play that credit game too
strong, you know.
know YOU know that slim trim young
man who has a perfect passion Tor
red sox and married ladies' You must
know him il you are married because
he uses the telephone lot and appears
at all OF the dances. Well, he lost
some OF his perfect passion for the
married ladies last Saturday when a
sturdy husband gave him new start
in life. He is wearing blue sox now
and his perfect passion Is not quite
so perfect.
| know that you know that gentle
man with the blue automobile! You

is in the repair shop now.
know you know that little lady
who tries to act SO cute" at all the
society" dances? You truly ought to
know her because she asks all the
gentlemen to be sure and dance with
her. Well one man had the courage
to tell her he did not want to dance
with her and when she asked him why,
he told her. You know why, too.
| know you know that stout gentle
man who fell on Grand Blvd. and 39th
and cut his hip severely. You must
know him and you also must know
that the glass was in his pocket and
not on the sidewalk Better carry it in
the metallic TASKS if you are not sure
Of your steps.
| know you must know that young
lady who left for the east rather sud
denly? You, must know her because
you certainly heard many people say
that they were going to write and tell
her husband that it was about time he
sent for her. The husband did better
man that-he came Tor her.

CIVIL WAR VETERAN
COUGHS UP BULLET
Confederate sharpshooter, After 5s
Years, Coughs Up Bullet Fired in
Eye, Leading to Discovery of
Union Soldier Who Fired
Shot.

KELSO, Wash. Sept. 8. p. J.
Knapp a Civil war veteran after So
years has traced the course of bull
let he fired at the siege Of Vicksburg.
Some time ago Mr.. Knapp read a
news dispatch saying that w ".
Meadwos, Confederate veteran of
Lanott, Ala. had coughed up bullet
which was shot into his eye at Vicks-
burg. Mr.. Meadows, the account said,
was a member OF the 9th Alabama
regiment, and Mr.. Knapp recalled an
incident at the siege when he and
three other members of the 5th Iowa
volunteers were called upon to silence
a Confederate sharpshooter who was
firing through a small hole in sheet
OF boiler plate.
After Mr.. knapp fired the sharp
shooters shots were discontinued, and
it was surmised that he had been shot
in the eye.
When Mr. Knapp wrote to Mr..
Meadows. the latter said that he was
the man behind the boiler plate and
that the bullet entered his right eye.
Mr.. Knapp received a photograph Of
the bullet and Of Mr.. Meadows. The
two veterans have enjoyed a consid-
cradle correspondence over the irci-
dent.

GERMAN RIVALRY
KEEN in ARGENTINA

BUENoS AIRES. Sept. S.-Ameri-
can business in Argentina is at present
being battered by a drumfire Of Ger
man competition, according to Edward
F. FeeIy, American commercial attache
in Ruenos Aires.
.In many lines" he says, Eve are
losing business and from the present
outlook it appears that this condition
viii probably continue for some time
as the Germans are able to offer lower
prices in a number Of cases, when the
high rate of the American dollar Is
taken into consideration.
However, 1t may be accepted as a
certainty that in the long run Ameri-
cans need have no great fear OF Ger
man or other competition. Once a nor
NAL balance has been established in
international trade, SO that the Amer
lean trader viii not be Handicapped
by the high quotation OF the dollar,
be able to hold their own with any
country.
In such items as machinery, tools,
small hardware of an kinds. paper.
wire, etc, competition is particularly
keen, and the American manufacturer
has small chance Of getting orders
when price alone is the principal con-
sideration.
Bids recently received the division
Of navigation and ports of the ministry
Of public works illustrate the com
parison between British, American and
German prices. out Of ten items bid
on. the Germans were able to undersell
their competitors in nine cases and got
the business.
In several instances the low German
bid was far below the level Of the
competing bids. indicating that the
firms offering the goods were willing
to sacrifice profits in order to get bus

showed clear evidence Of dumping, the
firm making the bid quoting a price
equivalent to about $1,000 below the
factory price in Germany and not TAX
