 A heavy rain and high wind ceased soon after the prince began his tour. Thousafids of unemploy- ed greeted him at the station. cheering and waving handker- chiefs, hot all of them very white.
 Lord Derby. friend of the prince and mayor, of Bolton, greeted the royal visitor. The prince did not smile often. When he did, 1t was in response to a cheer for our prince" from the unemployed who lined the sidewalks of this small, depressed community.
 The object of, the princes visit Is to bring the plight of Lancashire to the public notice, as he. did on his trip to the coal fields of north ern England two years ago. He came into the heart of the country hardest hit by the world depres- sion,
 Bottoms cotton mills have been tied up by strikes, or running only part time due to increased com petition and the boycott on Eng fish cloth itstigated by Mahatna Gandhi in India. The country's mines, factories, dye works and si1ipyards are practically stagnant.
 From here the prince goes on to Wigan and St Helens, and then to Liverpool, where 10 Ier cent of the population is unemployed. Idle ships are tied up at the Liverpool docks and there is little activity ut the famous shipbuilding yards.

 Wine Distributor

 "Then there is the sparkling wines, champagne and sparkling Burgundy, which are usually dry and contain II or 12 per cent al- cohol."
 Miller explained that dry" ap- piled to wines means relatively low sugar content.
 He prepared the following menu as representing what he considers q fitting wine card for 8 dinner:
 Riesling (dry9.
 Soup-Moselle (dry).
 Salad--Sauterne (semi-sweet).
 Fowl--Burgundy (semi-sweeD. Dessert--Sherry (sweet).
 Coffee-Sweet champagne.
 But" Miller cautioned, there are many diners who would want Sherry with every course, because it is stronger and has more body. Wines made in this country usual ly suit American taste better than imported wines. They are higher in sugar content, have more body, "I think when wines are legal ized, Americans will drink more artistically than they used to-"
 He pointed to a motto on the wall. a quotation from Omar Khayyam's "Rubaiyat": Waste not your hour, nor in

 Of this or that endeavor and

United Press Stan COrrespondent)
 Chicago, Nov 23 = (UP) - 4 grape juice master vintner spent two hours to-day telling about wines and how to drink them.
 His thesis was that Americans. who used to know where q moselle should come on a banquet menu and the difference between Bur gundy and sparkling Burgundy, have forgotten and that to most of those who have grown up in the prohibition era, the art of drinking wine is a mystery.
 Frank W. Miller Is grape juice yintner through prohibition. He plans to be a distributor of wines when wine comes back under the law.
 Points in his platform" for the wine drinker included:
 .sWine should be tasted, admired, its bouquet inhaled.
 ssIt should be drunk at tempera- ttre only slightly under that of the. room; chilling wine destroys it's bouquet.
 Ut should be served in small thin glasses so the temperature of the encircling hand is imparted to the wine, enhancing it's pleasing qualities"
 Miller, an alert youngish man with black eyes and hair, spoke as he sat in chair in the office of the California Vintner's associa- ton. It was down in the ware- house and distributing district be- tween the Loop and the lake, where box cars stand on sidings out in front and instead of a side walk there is stretch of wood platforms over which barrels roll and boxes are trundled.
 "Wines are white or red. dry or sweet" Miller said. "A ready clas- sification would be: Dry white wines containing II to 12 per cent alcohol-Rhine, Riesling and Mo- selle; semi-sweet white, Sauterne,

 II sincerely believe" he said, "that the University of Southern California football team has done a tremendous thing for this com munity. It draws crowds of from 7O,OO0 to 1O5,000 to it's games. h my opinion there are too few things in a democracy such as ours to challenge the enthusiastic support of large. bodies of men and women.

with the larger manufacturers of the city, seeking to have them agree to lesser drops in their re- spective inventories than as at first planned on so as to aid fhe ad- ministration in it's Gft"e against an increase in tho tax levy for 1893.
 Factories have shut down during the past year for long periods, oth- CTS have passed out of existence Other factories have cut down the amount of their machinery or have not built or brought in new ones. This resulted largely in the de- crease in the grand list growth.
 At the same time local stores, in view of the slow business, failed to stock up with new goods. The result was that when the assessors made their assessments on such stocks they found litle or no goods outside of the ordinary to warrant an increase in values.
 Builders did not carry on any extensive operations, either, during the past year. All in all with depreciation on present buildings, with inventories dropping and with building off considerably. the city is now faced with q grand list for the coming year on which to. base its income which will not show any increase but possibly q decrease.
 Because of thls, 1t is understood, Mayor Hayes has conferred with the manufacturers. It is logical that if they complained about their inventory assessments too much and caused too great drop in such figures, the tax rate would have to so up and the result would be that they would be behind, any way, paying increased levies on the buildings which go to make up their plants.
 Therefore, the finance commis- sioners went into session to-day confident that the grand list might be kept at it's present level and with the intention of cutting every dollar possible from the various departmental budgets so us to prevent any tax increase.
 Due to the poor tax collections during the past year, 1t will also be found necessary, 1t Is under stood, to increase the margin of safety" in the 1898 budget. This means that the resources will have to be discounted to q greater ex- tent than they were when the present year's budget was made up. This would necessitate greater cut Executive Secretary Thomas P.
