St.- Great Scott'- It does seem to si^'Wre-uns what worT on a newspaper that the city editor can think up IfM "the most unheard of places to send ',"W®-uns, and on a Saturday, too. ,|f '.yYou see we come out on Sunday *v' morning with a great big paper,

and we Just have to hunt up stories ••p-. that pdp with pep to interest you,4 una while you pose "near to na» jfcV'ture" under a 'lectric fan Sunday |j'*'. morning and read. Well, that guy "li wished a job on me that vied in ?. importance with a visit to a glass £l. factory on the days when the furf| naces are the hottest, or an interjfj^'view with Hades.

If you haven't, then do, because if

you only know lfc there is more keen sport down there during one of these battles between the populace and old "High Cost of Living" than you can in tftb course of a day unless you find another sals just like it. You plumb forget to be hot, you just get curious little quivera of merrittient started about the time you hit the bottom of tne stairs, and '/'they just

keep up gaining in gig-

glss the longer you stay, and let US tell you, if you are a woman,

fou kinda get the fever and are buying before you know it. It's tontaglous that's all. Well, I went, j. faying "goat," "goat," every step y of the way to the store, but I for"l fot that I was there for a story forgot that the mercury was flirting with the top of the ther- {,• BOmeteiV I forgot that some one was shoving me, and tramping on i/. my toe. I just tood open-mouthed, -"open-eyed, and looked! That crowd was so thl 1 e specially in spots, that Jt looked like bees a«working. !?%ome with hats, women minus their hats, women in dust caps, women with veils and illusion tied around uncombed

V heads: wrappers, dressing sacques, .t silk dresses, even georgette crepes, they were all there, snatching and grabbing, pulling in tug-of-war fashion on the goods and irregardless of manners, books on etiquette, conscientious scruples, -or- what

not.

On v- came the women, grabbing and pulling, stepping on each other and v. Guy, oh where was he? When those who knew him caught the naxt glimpse of Guy, he was yell-' ing, "stop it, stop it, I say! that's no remnant, that's my shirt tail,"

SEETHING WITH

tood Riots, Earthquakes and Political Controversy Make Internal Situation Critical.

K\ I

ROME, July 5,—FOod riots, earthquake devastation, the Franco-Italian 'differences, allied Fiume and political controversy had combined today to ^present Italy with an internal situa-tlpa-^regarded as most critical, mes^*lfcg#s indicating that the food troubles

J.were assuming a threatening aspect Of countrywide character. The government had bf-gun to take steingent measures to check the dis--Ojrders, which at Florence, has resulted ^4n man being killed and a boy being fatally injured.

Martial law had been declared at \.Forii and the directors general of po-~ -lice had arrived at Bologma, where the ./ situation was described as serious.

Advices from several cities reported that where maximum prices had been

Reports from Fiume indicated that I i 'the city still was seething as a result jof the differences between French

Markets were deserted. Farmers were refusing to sell their products. In order to solve the problem, co-operative societies and municipal commissions were endeavoring to organize and dis.tribute supplies.

The chamber of labor announced Jpthat the sale of goods at pre-war prices would begin at once. The garrison had been reinforced at Florin, where many arrests had been made and scores of persons Injured.

yet the women swung on, the arowd backed for another raid, and to gain momentum and there stood Guy, his shirt out all the way around, his hair floating like a true foot ball hero, while "Aunt Sally," seeing a chance for a percale sun bonnet, probably, swung on at the rear. Finally he was rescued, and some one at the front of the store shouted, "a fresh lot of penny pieces, and the crowd shifted, the boy who was filling the box, was thrown to the floor, he was sat on, while the women fought, bit and scratched over the penny pieces, some of them large enought to make a quilt, if you ,got enough of them.

One fat woman was knocked down, and two friends puffed and panted, and "lent a hand" to assist her to her feet It was some show. One woman, who disdained to get into the fray, calmly chewed gum, while she announced that "fer hogs, recommend me to a sale, y'can sure see 'em there."

Some of the scramblers had all they could carry of different sorts and kind* of material, and of all lengths. "I want to git Sammie sum waistes fer fall," stated a woman, "Two er three uf these '11 make me a waist, combinin" colors," stated another*

Babylon All Over.

"See this dress, this Is remnants I bought last year. I got twenty uv one kind and matched it up with another lot. I think it looks pretty good, don't you?" and similar remarks were heard in passing. "Say you red haired Indian if you pull that out uv my hand again, I'll slap you to sleep," was the fond admonition issued from one woman to the other. "You'd better etart tryin' it you cow," answered the other calmly and out came a hat pin while she continued winding up the piece she had pulled away, v

The big one stepped a lift closer while the wee red headed one looked her calmly in the eye, finally her eye shifted and when she looked again she was glaring at a colored woman of thd big raw boned type. "Well, what you all see, huh? J'u think folks aint got no right here but you. You caint step on me white woman, you Jest oaint, so doan you try it, I say. Here guv me sum o* them ere rags," and she made a plunge at the box of remnants.

Let me tell you, too, that the, crowd was not composed of Judy O. Grady and Little Snowball type alone. Some of the finest were there grabbing and snatching with the rest and it is not the slightest wonder to any one who attends one of these sales why the Kleeman Brothers stage them annually, they are the "popularist" thing ever. You'd better get in line Monday, have the laugh of your life. It beats a roller coaster Sr bumping the bumps all hollow.

I asked for Maurice Kleeman, but they told me he plots these sales, then buys the longest railroad ticket "Bill" McKeever has in his case at the Union depot and keeps on traveling "til the smoke has cleared away.

WHO'S WHO

IN E PAYS n e w s WBammmmmuamaamamsnm HIRAM JOHNSON. 'This league means that American boys shall police the world that all tottering nations of the earth shall be upheld by our blood and our bone •that Europe, Asia and Africa may draw "upon us in their every dispute and quarrel that our nation will be at the mercy of European and Japanese diplomats, who never had and never will have any sympathy with our aspirations or our ideals. For otie I make the issue with them. It Is not on political party or the other. The issue is the republic. "The republic that Washington gave us, that Lincoln saved for us, wnose traditions and ideals have been so gloriously upheld by our valiant sons abroad. The issue Is America and I am an American."

This is the reason why Senator

Few men in public life have had such a spectacular rise as Senator Johnson. His political career started in San Francisco when that city was in the hands of grafters. He was Instrumental in having Abe Ruef the mayor convicted and imprisoned.,

Johnson then proceeded to overturn the political machine in that city, which was controlled by the Southern Pacific Railway. He succeeded and received from his people the sobriquet of the '^fighting governor," when he was elected to the governorship as the republican nominee of the Lin-coln-Hoosevelt league, a progressive republican organization. In 1912 he served as the running mate on the vice presidential ticket with the late Theodore Roosevelt. He took his seat in the United States senate two years ago.

Senator Johnson was "born In Sacramento, Cal., on September 2, 1866. He was admitted to the California bar twenty-one years later.

TWO WIVES ASK DIVORCE. Frances May Cole, alleging that her husband, Alexander Cole, struck her, beat her, called her vile names and failed to provide for her, entered suit for divorce in the superior court Saturday afternoon. Nellie Land is also praying for a severance matrimonial alliances with Charlie Land, whom she charged with cruel and inhuman treatment, and also With, failure to provide.

DINNER STORIES

A dusky doughboy, 'burdened under tons of medals and miles and miles of ribbons, service and wound chevrons, stars, et al., encountered a Twen-

ty-seventh division. scrapper in Le Mans a few days prior to the division'a departure for the States. "Whar you' all ben scrappin' in dis yar war, boss?" meekly inquired the colored soldier. "Why, we've been fighting up in Belgium and Flanders with the British." replied the 2iew Yorker, proudly. "Well, we been down in dom woods— watcha call 'em woods, 'way down s o u $ "The ArgonneT*' suggested young Knickerbocker.

"Yas, yas, dem's de woods—d'Argonne." "You knew our division "wa* the first to break the Hindenburg line, colored boy," explained the Twentyseventh man. "Was it you wot did dat trick? Y'know, boss, we felt dad ol' line sag way down in d'Argonne."

Two friends met in the Strahd the morning after an airplane raid. "Any damage done your way?" the first asked. "Damage! Rather!'* answered the other. "Father and mother were blown clean out of the window. The neighbors say it's the first time they've been seen to leave the house together in seventeen years.''

"I hope sir," said the s«iitor, "that you will consider me in the nature of an investment, even if I may not pay regular dividends." "My dear boy," replied her father, "don't talk of dividends. I shall be glad if you don't levy regular assessments on me."
