PROFlTEERINC IS
 BRANDED CRIME

Havana, Aug. 19-Profiteering is branded a crime under the provisions of a measure approved by the Cuban Chamber of Commerce yesterday. This is the first time that it has been placed in the criminal category in .Latin-Am erican countries.
 The bill was framed for the pro- lection of the livestock industry, and was laid before the chamber by the executive department. It would au- tohrize the president to confer with stockmen and retailers. and to fix prices to be charged for meat. Pen alties would be inflicted upon these disregarding the prices thus estab- lished. Cattle imported from other countries would be required to un- dergo a ten day quarantine before being admitted to Cuba.

The Jest was not wholly Jest. Peo-
pie are paying too much attention now

REFUSED TO TAKE CHANCES
Fortune TsIIsr's Prediction Caused
Crews of Two Vessels TO Dessrt
the eoats at Quebec.

From time immemorial superstitions
Of sailors, with few exceptions. have
naturally been associated with things
Of the sea, notably the belief which
marks departure from port ON Friday
as a certain omen Of bad luck. st.
Elmo's fire, the bo'sun fish, whistling
for the wind in a calm. the presence
of priest on board ship. all these
deal with actual elements Of sea life
that played great part among such
legends. The Flying Dutchman legend
was also born OF the sea; likewise the
ghostly crew coming from the wreck
Of a sunken ship to haunt the crew Of
the vessel which caused their loss.
"A more annoying variety Of super
stition was revealed the other day by
the action Of the crews of two Amer
lean tugs who deserted their boats at
Quebec. Before these two boats left
Detroit bound for New York fortune
teller predicted the doom OF one of
the boats before It finished its voy-
age. This prophecy 80 worked on the
sensibilities Of the members OF the two
crews mat they struck on reaching
Quebec. Old salts might sniff af such
q prophecy as this as being Of the
fresh-water brand and not worthy to
be enrolled In the ancient and honor
able company Of deep-sea superstitions,
but the prophecy worked its evil upon
the tug owners. The loss Of their
crews made a real thing Of It.

COOPERATION SHRINKS PROFITS OF THE

The farmers of Beaverhead County, Montana have

woolen trust They told that their wool worth
less. They could scarcely give it away One farmer
actually received check for 65c for shipment of 1000
prime sheep, wool and ALL The balance to rail-
roads for exorbitan freight and middemen
for commissions and other graft. The American Wooen
Company has manipulated the market by shutting down
its mills and refusing to buy wool
clothing thus compelling the farmer to his wool for
song and the consumer to pay prices pro-
duct (Which reminds that the Wool Trust was a
4OO-percenter in its war patrioteering)
The Montana farmers have decided that it is better
to shrink the profits of the Wool Trust than to 60 into

The Engagement
of John Henry
By H. LOUIS RAYBoLD


&c. 1871. by Mcclure Newspaper Syndicate
Every youth in town, except John
Henry, had girl. Some, like his fas-
cinating cousin, George Baker, had
more than one. Yet John Henry was
no woman hater. He was merely af-
fiicted with SO bad a case of bashful-
ness that the very thought of asking a
girl If he might call was sufficient to
cause him to palpitate inwardly and
outwardly to mop his brow.
His only acquaintance with lovely
woman was through the medium Of
books. In fact, SO omnivorous a reader
was John Henry that he had exhausted
the resources of his home town of
Hamden and had taken to spending his
evenings In Milford, the neighboring
community. which boasted young
library Of several thousand volumes.
1t was on his return from such an
expedition that John Henry was met
by his cousin George, who had been
calling on Milford girl. Now, George
was not above twitting John Henry on
his guileless condition, and it was with
such an amiable intent in mind that he
slipped into the seat beside his cousin
on the Interurban trolley.
''Bet you been sparkling a girl, ].
HI" he began. Then. as John Henry
maintained silence meant to be dig
nif1ed: "And I'll wager she can't hold
a candle to the peach I've been to see
Some girl, J. H. !" he continued, and
proceeded along this line until their
destination was reached.
And here the matter might have
ended except for Georges parting shot
as their ways separated. when you

That question was overheard by
John Henry's mother. approaching

Milford. But In her heart she was In

New Source of eIIk.

Discovery has been made Of a proc
ess by which the muscular tissue Of
horses and cattle can be converted
into silk-a use being thus found for
condemned cows and horses killed be-
cause Of accident or old age.
The flesh Is softened by saturating
It in a liquid, which separates the
muscle fibers by dissolving the sub
stance that holds them together. Then
1t is soaked In another liquid, which
strengthens the fibers and gives them
a silky character.
Silk thus obtained can be rubberixed
and made water proof by soaking It
for some hours In q bath of rubber,
