He declared the de fence made by the big corporation a. the recent case in which it was fined $29,240,000. that it had only committed an offense that is common in business, was weak and cowardly. He said in part: “John P. Ttockefeller, J. Pierpont Morgan, E. H. Harriman and the oth er trust magnates are doing more to make socialism possible than are its zealous adherents. They are con solidating the industries and thereby simplifying the process for state ow n ership which constitutes socialism.

PORTLAND NOW DEFIES ALL HER ENEMIES TO APPROACH. STATE OF TERROR Marks the Situation at Casablanca, Morocco. Fighting Breaks Out Often-Oead Piled in the Streets. Situation Along the Coast and in Interior Grows Worse.

Tangier, Auk. S.—French sailors are guarding the iSritish consulate at Cas ablanca, where the consuls of the United States, Germany, Austria-Hun gary Mid Sweden have sought refuge. The Italian and Portugese consuls arc at the French consulate. The Euro pean shops were pillaged, hut no Eu ropeans were killed. The State Bank Agency at Casa blanca has been robbed of about >15, OflO, but no details of the robbery have been made public. The French consulate was attacked by Moors during the night of Aug. 5. One bluejacket of the guard was kil'e.l and three were badly wounded. The Citizen House at Casablanca was looted by natives on Tuesday, and many other buildings were set on fire and destroyed. A sailor of tlic Du Chayla was killed an 1 four others were wounded, three of them sustaining serious injuries dur ing the recent fighting. The DuChayla sailed hurriedly at fi o’clock last night for Mazagan. where the population lias risen against the C'aid. The French warships yesterday land ed 2000 additional men at Casablanca, where street fighting apparently con tinuer, judging from the desultory fir ing heard day and night by those on board the ships anchored off the town. The Jewish quarter of Casablanca has been sacked. Many persons weie mas sacred in the streets, the city is said, to In* full of dead Moors and the Moor ish quarter is in ruins, having been set on fire by the shells from the big guns of the cruisers. Ali tlie stores tire closed and much hunger and distress prevails among the poor. The foreign consuls have or dered the stores to ho re-opened and have established a special tariff for food stuffs, designed to mitigate the sufferings of the poor. The Europeans, who are ail safe either on hoard ships or at the consulates, are guarded by hhiejaek, ts. The warships continue to drop an oc casional shell into groups of Kabyles on the beach in order to prevent them from approaching the town. Advices from Rabat say tivht the Kabyles have given the governor a f >rtnight in which to withdraw the French controller of customs. Other wise they say they will attack the town. The effervescence among the And jerras tribesmen in the vit inity of Tan gier is creating some apprehension that a surprise attack may lie made on the city. The latest news received here from Casablanca says that calm and order have now been established. The mili tary governor requested permission to go on board a ship in the harbor, hut was refused. He fears for his personal safety, and although money lias been sent from hero to pay the troops at Casablanca, and ensure the perform ance of their duty, he is unable to se cure a body guard. The shoot inside of Casablanca last ed for two full days and only came to an end yesterday morning. The Kabyles have gone back out of range of the fire from tile warships, hut they are ready to sweep down on the town on the first opportunity. ALARMING REPORTS Are Received From Coast Towns From the Interior. Paris. Aug. 8.—Special despatches received here from Tangier report the situation its being more alarming on the coast and in the interior, thud Sale, the administrator of customs at Rabat, is sai l to bo openly preaching a holy war among the Mussulman, as the reseult of which the French consu) has distributed arms to the Europeans. Tn addition a fanatical priest named Maelanin,-at tile head of a horde of followers is travelling throughout the Littoral inflaming the anti-foreign sen timent. FRANCE HAS BIG JOB. I Far-Reaching Effect of Invasion of Morocco Pointed Out. Paris. Aug. 8.—In spite of the firm intention of the French government to keep within the terms of the Algeciras convention in its dealings with Moroc co. the French press clearly foresees that France, unless the situation rap idly improves, ha« entered upon a long and heavy task. The newspapers ex press the opinion that France, upon which ihc chief burden in restoring security in the distruhed country will (Continued on Page Twelve.) Brave Defenders From All Parts of the State Flock to Her De fence on Double Quick. REGULARS ARE ALSO ON DOTY. If the Attacking Yankee Forces Can Effect a Landing it Will Simply Prove Them to Be Superior Yankees. Portland. Me., Aug. 8.—War maneu vers in the Portland artillery district began today and will continue until a week from Saturday. The regular ar tillerymen in the fortifications will be re-enforced by the entire infantry forces of Maine, consisting of the 1st and 2d regiments and a hospital corps. The local companies assembled at the armor early in the morning and pro ceeded to the forts. The interesting event of the day was the arrival of a special train of 11 ears bringing two companies of the 1st Regiment and live companies of the 2d Regiment from Bath, where they have participated in the Ter-centenary of the birth of American shipbuilding. The other com panies arrived on the regular trains. Most of the time today was occupied in pitching tents and putting every thing in readiness for the actual open ing of “hostilities.” By 0 o’clock tonight, the entire fight; ing force of T’ncle Sam's artillerymen in this district and the National Ouartl of Maine were encamped in the for tifications at the Cape and at the is lands and. in the array of Infantry and artillery, an armipotent front of sol diery is assembled for the pre lection of tlie city against the fighting face of ilie miniature armada. The 1st and 2d Maine Regiments, posted outside Portland, came through the city this morning and were transport ed to their destinations, the last com panies nrri' ing from Bangor way late tins afternoon. All day trains arriving at Union*sta tion keot bringing reinforcements for the local fortifications and though in the young men of the National Ouard. the “second nature look” of the regu l:i”s is lacking, the clean cut militia men have a soldierly bearing and give nn idea of the brain and brawn which Pnde Samuel has at his call in the everf-.t of actual war. And the ship shape fashion with which the men were brought to this, the seat of war. shows how. at short notice the Nation al Ouard of Maine could he brought Into at tivo service. Kverything is be ing carried out as if the war were act ual: ihe men were ordered to the front, the camp equipage and subsis tence transported, and the men placed under as rigid discipline as if the port wore in imminent danger from attack by the entire Japanese fighting power. To he sure the joy at being able to tako advantage of the games portrayed in the faces of the sturdy militia boys might be less noticeable and the faces perhaps somewhat long drawn If the event of the present call to arms car ried with it the danger of real battles, but wait until the same boys, browned by 10 days of warfare with the ac companying work and tense excite ment, trail home Aug. 17. and if the week of soldier life is not stamped on cvet;v man. the military lights of the State and country will lose their guess. The first companies to get away this morning were Companies B.. E., L., and A. of the First Regiment. The boys of these four companies, which are stationed at Fort McKinley march ed from the Auditorium with the First Regiment band at 8.45 and the stoanur Capt. Chas. W. Rowell was used as a transport. Company F of Hanford un der command of Capt. N. E. Bennett went to the fortification on the san.e transport. Capt. R. C. Parker of Co. R.. Capt. James Reagan of Co. E, Capt. William McCrlnk of Co. L, and Capt. F. A. Cummings of Co. A reported full ranks and nil felt well assured with tile study that the men huve done in dividually and the coaching that has been given them by regulars secured for the purpose, will be of priceless value to the men in daily routine. Company M of Westbrook, Capt. II. L. Lowell, came In on the same train with Co. F of Sanford, arriving at the Preble street station at 8.30. Cars were then taken to the corner of Foi,. and Moulton streets where the two companies fell In with the Portland outfits and marched to the Govermcnt landing at Portland pier. Co. M was transported to Fort McKinley on the Capt. T. W. Morrison, one of the steamers which will serve ns a part of tlie naval force. Co. I of ltiddeford, Co. II. of Rock land. and Co. G of Lewiston came from their respective cities on the early morning trains apd the steamer Major Albert W. Forse transported these companies to Fort McKinley. Com panies G and H are posted at Fort Lyon but the lioadqunrters for the Fort Lvon outfit is at Fort McKinley. Union square pu-sented a light martial appearance at 11 o’clock this morning, seven companies of militia being brought into Union station on a special trom Bath where the lwys participated In the Mg parade yesterday.

Chase’s death, bringing sorrow to many friends. Just a few days of hospital life, and then relief from the earthly life. Most surely are the poet's words true of her. "None knew her but to love her”—and one cannot imagine the busy loving life at an end. for her friends’ interests were her own and she lived paramountly with and for them. Seemingly with heart bound up in husband and children, she was capable of great friendships, and rich were those she ndmitted to this In ner circle. As a minister's wife here in Hallowell she gave largely of her time and strength to the work of the church, hut she was also given to the higher love of the Master, and therefore wherever she. was, was a most devoted and con secrated Christian. With an unusually winning personality, quick sympathies, a most tender nature, and great unselfish ness. she ministered as freely to those in her later home in Kcnnefcunkport ns to those of her church home hede, and will be sorely missed there, where began and ended her life. We cannot think of that happy homo without her, and great sympathy goes out to him who most knows the loss—also to son and daughter whose children she lov ed aa her own. It is well that she should be brought back to sleep in our beautiful cemetery by the side of her “Sadie,” with whose short earthly life her own was so closely Interwoven. G. WILL BUILD TRESTLE. Electric Road Will Abolish Crossing at Grade at Millikens. The Journal learns upon good auth ority that the Electric Road plans to do away with their grade crossing over the tracks of the Maine Central Rail road at Millikens. An elevated struc ture of steel will be constructed, the upward grade starting at Greenville street and extending over the tracks at a proper height, will reach the ground level some distance up on Wharf Hill. This has always been considered a very dangerous crossing, but by the use of lights and signals the danger of eollision with a steam train has been reduced considerable. However care ful and strict officials and employes may be, however. It is held that the only practical solution is in entire abolishment of crossing at grade and the building of a strong and durable trestle.

Commissioners Give Hearing on Lewiston, Augusta Waterville Road En= tering Waterville. A hearing was held Thursday morn ing at the superior court room in the City building before the Board of Rail road Commissioners in regard to the Lewiston, Augusta and Waterville Electric Co. entering this city and the proposed route over which it shall travel. The meeting was not largely attended there being but a few inter ested ones from each of the municipali ties. Hon. H. M. Heath of Augusta and John E. Nelson ot this city appeared for the railroad company. Mayor L. G. Bunker for the city of Waterville. and Hon. W. C. Phil brook for the town of Winslow and the Merrill, Bunnells and Mayo Company. Mr. Heath laid before the board the intentions of the promoters after cross ing the Ticonlc bridge. It was their plan to come up Lockwood street on the west side and to lay tracks through the middle of Front street. The center, rather than the east side was taken in accordance with the sentiment of the residents in that section. The Kenne bec Water District Company have their pipes laid on the east side and would bo a great inconvenience to them. The counsel for the railroad gave reasons to believe that there would be plenty of room for traffic on both sides should the track be laid in the center of the street. From Front street the line would swing up Temple, and the promoters’ Idea when petitioning for this street was to make connection with the Waterville and Oakland road. Mr. Heath stated that the new company would try to make a contract with the Waterville Fairfield Company for. the use of their tracks through Main street to Bridge and in this way form a loop. Several plans of the line and the intersecting streets were presented before the board. Hon. W. C. Philbrook although representing the town of Winslow ap peared chiefly in behalf of the Merrill, Bunnells and Mayo Company. This corporation runs two places of busi i ness in this city, one at the northern part and the other near the Ticonie bridge. They also have a building, which is used as a store house, on the east side of Front near the junction of Temple street. The land on which the building is erected Is owned by the Maine Central Railroad who will not lease it for a longer term than one year. The Merrill, Runnells and Mayo Company propose to add another building on the south adjoining lot, and claim that if the electric road is run through the center of the street it will be a great inconvenience to their business. Mr. Merrill of the said cor poration was present and through his attorney, Mr. Philbrook. presented his objections. He claimed that when teams were loading or unloading and backed up to the doors of the build ing, at right angles to the track the horses would stand in the center of the track, according to measurement. Mr. Merrill thought that reverse curve might be laid thus bringing the track along the other side of the street in front of his building. This idea fid not find much favor in the minds of any and Mayor Hunker thought it would bo of more incon venience to the general public, titan the laying of the track in the center would be to Mr. Merrill. Mr. Heath stated that it would be impossible to lay their tracks any where except in the center of the street in order to make the turn onto Temple. After discussing this question for some length the board finally decided to make a visit to the spot and in the exact situation, on careful examina tion and by making a few measure ments. the investigating parties were convinced that through the center of the street would be the better location. The commissioners returned to the court room and the matter was dis cussed considerably. Several other matters were laid over until the next meeting of the commis sioners. at which time the Ticonic bridge hearing will be considered. At Maple Grove Campmeeting On Tuesday evening at 7.30, follow ing a praise ami prayer service. Rev. E. S.

Work on Streets Going Finely. In conversation with Street Commis sioner Howe yesterday, the Journal representative was told some interest ins; facts regarding the work being done on the streets and some of the plans which the Commissioner has been experimenting upon. “How many miles of streets arc there in the city?" asked the Jour nnl representative. “I can tell you only approximately, but how many would you figure it?” bantered the commissioner. The Journal man got out his pencil and did a little figuring. ■‘Fifty," came the answer. “Well, a few more than that,” said Commisisoner Rowe. "Just to give you an idea of the etent of our city streets: I used two horses last summer in driv ing within the city’s limits and near ly wore them out, never realizing that. I was covering so much ground. I can't give you the cact number, but when you figure the length of the prineipal streets and the cross streets, you will find they will amount to over ino miles. It isn’t any easy job to keep that number of miles in good condi tion.” The street crews are at present en gaged on Factory hill, where work on a good piece of drainage system is be ing done.

A small ad, stating you have a house for sale and giving the location, will be read by a great many people and will bring inquiries and probably a sale. A more generous space with perhaps a picture of the property, a pithy description of its best features, spring water, good neighborhood, easy access to cars, good view, etc., makes the kind of ad that Is clipped out by home seekers and brings them to you) with their minds half made up to your place and ready to buy.

Address all communications relating to subscriptions and advertisements to BURLEIGH FLYNT, Publishers, Augusta, Maine. Friday, August 9, 1907. A contemporary remarks that the common people will have to pay that *29,840,000 fine. What, again? 1 1 The Morocco people seem to be doomed to assimilation and It will not be of the benevolent kind at that. The most popular souvenirs of the great sculptor St. Gaudens who has just died, will be the new *20 gold pieces which he designed. There docs not appear to be any clause In that new Georgia law which will forbid Frank L. Stanton from writing mint julep poetry for the At lanta Constitution. Dr. Bigelow declares that bees will not. sting if properly handled, but the difficulty is that the average man doesn’t know exactly how to take hold of one. The latest estimate sets the present population of the world at 1,480,000,000. And just think of the millions of them who do not know the glorious pleasure of passing a summer in Maine! The crop failures so generally pre dicted in the early spring have failed to materialize, which again emphasizes the fact that the things we worry most about in this life are usually the ones that never come to pass. It is announced that only “soft drinks’’ will, hereafter, be sold on the steamers that run up the Kentucky river. The mint julep is said to be the leading “soft drink” in Kentucky. Well, if old Raineses II made the world believe for over .1000 years that he was a really great monarch, it is a little ungracious to deny that he had elements of greatness far beyond those possessed by most rulers. Amid all this thumping of the Standard Oil Company Thomas Law son maintains a close and becoming silence. He has not even risen in his place to claim the honor of being the real Nemesis. If the entire Isthmus of Panama should sink under water it might be a welcome solution of a big problem.— Pittsburg Dispatch. If the Dispatch will possess its soul In patience a considerable strip of it will soon be submerged. The people of Arkansas will make a great mistake if they neglect tlieir hoeing t run after diamond fields. The chances are that they will con tinue for many years to come to make more money nut of corn than they will out of diamonds. Kansas is so busy harvesting its big wheat crop that it has had no time to Indulge in politics, but it may be depended upon to put a candidate or two Into the presidential running when It gets a chance to wash up and look over the situation. The Indianapolis News declares that you very seldom see a very rich man riding in a patrol wagon. True, even Abe Ilummel went to prison in an automobile; but once there he had the same style of hair cut. and wore the same kind of clothes that the oilier convicts did. A profc-ssor of the University of Chicago Is credited with the assertion that Walter feVott could not have written a theme for the freshman year, but If the University of Chicago has a student or professor who could write one of Walter Scott's novels lie is yet to appear in evidence. Occasionally a multi-millionaire manages to enjoy himself somehow. There’s Mr. J. I’ierpont Morgan, for Instance, still Hitting from flower to flower over across.—Boston Herald. Mr. Morgan is enjoying himself all right, but just now he is on a yachting cruise along the Maine coast instead of "Hitting from flower to flower over across." The severe weather of the early spring l.s reported to have done the Mouth a great service by largely knocking out the destructive boll weevil. As the cotton crop U reported to be getting on famously. It would appear as if the South had been a large gainer by this year's weather vagaries. “I have” declares Senator Tillman South Carolina when challengin Senator Foraker of Ohio to a joint dis cusslon of the race question, “put U pitchfork into Senator Foraker an other Senators of the North, ai turned it round and round, but the always answer me at long range This is doubtless true, but then yc see Tillman is the only member of tl Senate who carries a pitchfork. whieavy as a balancing pole, and treading with squirrel-like-qui^k?*1' ness as his footing rolls, he will *kii rapids of considerable force and vol ume. When the tall of a drive passes through the chute of a dam there are always half a dozen or so or the “rear" men who out of sheer bravado will run through standing upright like circus riders and yelling like fiends. Few river drives finish without los ing a man. There are magnificent res cues, narrow escapes. However, these men appear to accept whatever comes as a matter of course; or, perhaps more truly. It is their pride never to show emotion of any sort. One man was dragged out by the col lar from a very dangerous predicament between two parts of a breaking J4m To gain safety his rescuers, burdened by the victim of the accident, had faff ly to scale the breast of the falling logs. For ten seconds It looked'1 Him sure death to both, but by a combina tion of audacity and sheer lock they reached the bank. Most people would have paused for congratulations and to talk it over. Not they. The res cuer. still retaining his grip oa {fie man’s collar, twisted him around and delivered one good kick. “There, d-n you!” said he; and the two fell to work without further comment. Just as a cowboy likes to show oft horsemanship which can have no prac tical application tojiis frade, sit does the rlverman do his tricks. A man in Marinette, whose name Have forgot- ten,- could turn a somersault on a log; innumerable others like to lie down at length while floating with the gtirrent; Jack Boyd rould "upend” a railroad fie T without falling into the water, and it is very cold water indeed that can scare off an occasional birllng match.— Outing. STUNG THE SHERIFF How the Official Got Some Instruction There is a law in Texas which re quires commercial travelers to pur chase a license before they may do business—a law either unknown to, or disregarded by. a certain patent medi cine man from New England, says Harper s Weekly. He was Just emerg ing from a drug store, where he had placed an order, when a stranger came up and addressed him. on sell Brown’s Boston Bitters, don't you?” the stranger asked. “les; and I’d like to sell you a case—cure you so quick you won’t haye been sick yesterday—fact!" the drummer said. “All right. How much is she?" the stranger asked, pulling out his pocket- bi»ok and handing over the So demand- l ed, receiving in exchange an order on the local freight agent for his case. “Now, I'd just like to see your license to peddle—I’m the Sheriff,” the stranger said pleasantly. “You’ve got me—twenty-five. Isn't it?” the drummer asked, offering the money, “I don't suppose it will be nec essary for me to appear?” “No, that will be all right,” the sheriff replied. Then ho looked at the order for the case of medicine. “What am I going to do with this stuff?” he asked. “I'll give you a dollar for it,” the drummer suggested, and the trade was made. “And do you happen to have a license to peddle? Huh, I thought not. Well, you have been trading with me—selling goods without a license guess I’ll go tile a complaint against you,” the drummer said, sweetly, and the next morning the sheriff, with a sheepish grin, paid a fine of |25.

Folger, proprietor of boarding house. 36 Northern Ave., Au gusta, Me., says: “In the spring of 1£96 I got Doan's Kidney Pills at Chas. K. Partridge’s drug store, now Willis R.

I allowed my testimony to be published In our local papers, and now, fully eight years after, I am only too pleased to confirm what I said about Doan’s Kidney Pills in my first statement.

Lydia Moore, D. S. WOMEN PAY MORE. Why Insurance Companies Discrimi nate Against the Gentle Sex. Medical examiners of insurance companies say that the reason a woman pays more for the privilege of Insurance than a man, is from the fact that women more readily fall victims to indigestion and stomach troubles and the fatal ailments that spring from these causes. All persons, they say, who have a weakened digestive system and suffer from sick headache, dizzy spells, dis tress after eating, specks before the eyes, bloating, nervousness, sleepless ness, and the many other symptoms of Indigestion, soon lower the tone of the whole system and are most sus ceptible to a fatal illness. For curative power in all stomach troubles, nothing else is as safe yet effective, nothing else can be thor oughly relied upon to relieve all trou bles from indigestion as Mi-o-na. It is unlike any remedy heretofore known and Is really one of the valuable dis coveries in modern medical science. It is not the acute attacks that in fluence the insurance examiners alone, but the constant feelings of weakness, headaches, Indigestion and stomach troubles—these things, physicians say, kill more people than many more seri ous diseases. To escape this condition of 111 health, to enjoy one's food and yet never suffer with Indigestion, a person should use Ml-o-na stomach tablets. They are not a mere digestive tablet, but strengthen and restore to natural action the stomach and bowels and effect n complete cure in even the worst form of stomach troubles. Bowditch, Webster Co., of Au gusta and Geo. W. Dorr of Watervllle sell Mi-o-na in 50-cent boxes under a guarantee to refund the money unless ^it does all that is claimed for it. and D. C.

Do you know what makes people lay awake and toss and roll about at nil-in Doctors tell you there are various causes. I tell you i t's stomach trouble. I know it because I've seen thou sands of cases and watched them. A stomach that is over-crowded with undigested _decayed food mat ter not every' or* Mrs. Geo. Weisel. pan of the human body. It causes nervousness, headaches, constipation, impure blood, poor circulation and’ dulls the mind. It makes one restless and uneasy. When your stomach is working right you feel right You sleep well and you eat well. People come to me day after day and tell me they can’t rest after eating They have a dull headache. At night they go to bed simply because they are exhausted. They catch a few cat nal>a and get up in the morning feeling a3 worn out as they did before. I have recommended Cooper’s New Discovery, regular diet, regular habits and invariably these ?.ime people come to me afterwards and tell me they feel much better because they eat well and sleep well. Herewith is a sample. A letter I received from Mrs. Geo. Weisel,, 1121 Providence Road, Scran ton, Pa., says: “I suffered for three years from stomach trouble: inactive liver and rheumatism. Everything I ate dis agreed with me and I lay awake night after night. I had no pleasure in Ufa and could scarcely do my work about the house. I heard from a neighbor of Cooper's New Discovery and I bought two bottles of it. It helped me right away. Now I have a good appetite and never suffer from indigestion. I sleep well and awake refreshed, want to thank you from the bottom o my heart for what this medicine has done for me." The Cooper medicines have a larger sale than any medicine on the market.

Poor Paint is Expensive If one is rich enough to repaint bis buildings every year for the pleasure of having a change of color scheme, the quality of the paint used may cut little figure. But if it is desirable to cut the painting bills down to the least amount possible per year, it is of the utmost importance that the paint be made of Salem Pure White Lead and the best of Linseed Oil. There are imitations in the form of alleged White I^-ad, and there are substitutes in the form of ready prepared paints. We guarantee this White Lead to be absolutely pure, and the Dutch Boy on the side of every keg is your safe guard. Look for him.

Washington, Aug. 8.—Leading Cbm mereial movements for the month of June and the llrst six months of the year, as reported by the Uureau of Sta tistics of the Deaprtment of Commerce and Labor, on the whole indicate nor mal industrial and commercial condi tions and a satisfactory increase over corresponding figures of the preceding year. The constantly growing com mercial activity, especially in handling agricultural and mining products which, in the beginning of the year, ex ceeded the carrying capacity of the railroad carriers, continues unabated, though hn adjustment of carrying facilities to traffic offered seems to have been effected for the time being, both through an increase in number as well as a better distribution of freight cars. Receipts of live stock at seven In terior primary markets during June aggregated 3,202,033 head, a total lower than that reported for April and May of the same year, as well as for the same month of the two preceding years. Kansas City, St. Joseph and Sioux City show monthly receipts larg er than those of June. 1906, while Chicago, Omaha, St. Louis and St. Paul show smaller returns for June, 1907, than for the corresponding month of last year. Receipts appear to have been smaller for all classes of animals, with the exception of cattle. Receipts, of animals at the above seven cities during the first six months show a slight gain over corresponding 1906 and 1906 returns, the respective figures be ing 20,052,242 head, compared with 20, 027,094 and 19,399.215 received at the same markets during the first six months of 1906 and 1905. Larger re ceipts. as compared with those for the first six months of the two years pre ceding. are shown by cattle, calves and hogs, while sheep, horses ahd mules show smaller totals. Shipments of packing-house products from Chicago during June11 aggregated 194.0SS.115 pounds, compared with 282, 632,136 and 240,871,564 pounds shipped during June, 1906 and 1905, respective ly. Decreases as compared with 1906 figures are shown in the shipments of all food products, the largest shrink ages appearing under the heads of fresh beef, 78,637.990 pounds, as against 103.289.310; cured meats, 60.965,989 pounds. oonYpared withV 98,155,752; canned meats, 6,353,550 pounds, com pared with 11,715.600; pickled beef, 3.635.600 pounds, compared with 7,095, 500; and lard, 27,282,192 pounds, com pared with 45.041.013. It is note worth that the June shipments of canned meats, while considerably be low the corresponding 1906 and 1905 shipments, are, however, larger than the figures for any month of the cur rent year i;rain receipts during June at ttf teen interior primary markets, 64.631, 970 bushels, are largely In excess of corresponding 1906 and 1907. figures of S8.433.834 bushels and 48.16C.864 bushels, respectively?

Smaller re ceipts are shown by Cleveland, Detroit, Louisville, and Milwaukee, relative de creases being especially heavy in the case of the first two named cities. Of the total grain receipts for the month. 14.113,702 bushels were wheat. 35,102. 129 corn. 13.206.446 oats, 1,867,720 bar ley and 343,473 rye.

Selecting a bird whoso plumes are ready to pluck, be is enticed with sugar beels Into a tri angular Inclosnrc. thence to the narrow end and there Imprisoned with liars. The ostrich is enraged when he finds that he Is imprisoned, hut in a moment Ills head is enveloped in a sack. -and. be ing blind, he becomes quiet and submis sive. The plucking is painless. Onlv the smaller feathers are pulled as the feathers are plucked from geese. Tbs large plumes are cut with care to pre- sem e the soc kets of the quill from In- Jury. Natural white or pure black plumes require only washing anil curling, hut most of the plumes are gray and must be dyed for the market. The raw feathers hre sold In San Era*iciseo and New York.
