Either overcrowded or big bankrupt sale or bought too much and need the shelf room. But generally it is because they need the cash.

That was reckless extravagance in a year when the best of railroad coaches could be built at a cost not exceeding $4,500. But the Pioneer was blazing a new path in luxury.

(American News Service) Toronto. Canada, Nov. 6. Organized labor in all its branches, throughout the United States and Canada, will be represented at the twenty-ninth annual convention of the American Federation of Labor, which will convene in this city on Monday, November 8th and will continue in session until all its business has been transacted. This will be the first convention of this organization ever held in the Do
minion of Canada, and it is expected that the right to organize the workers of Canada, on international union lines will be given a considerable impetus as a result The cases of Samuel Gompers, John Mitchell and Frank Morrison, which are now before the Courtof Appeals of the District of Columbia on an appeal taken from the sentences imposed upon the men by the supreme court of the district, on the charge of violating an injunction issued by that court will be thoroughly discussed, and resolutions will be adopted asserting, at any risk, the freedom of speech and of the press. Report by Gompers. It is expected that Samuel Gompers, the president of ths organization, will deliver a very interesting report, as a result of his recent European trip. Among the many important subjects to be discussed will be one relative to the establishment of a department of labor, with a secretary co-equal with the secretaries of the other departments of the government. This question was discussed at a recent meeting of the executive council of the American Federation of Labor held in Washington, and it wns decided to Introduce a bill to this effect at the foi'thcoming convention. The relation of organized, labor to industrial education is another question that will receive the attention of the delegates. At the Denver meeting last year, the proposition was advanced that the education of workmen in trades not under union auspices threatened the cause of union labor. A committee, headed by John Mitchell, was appointed to investigate and they will report their findings at the forthcoming convention. Always use Walter's Buckwheat. Its genuine flavor gives it a world wide reputation. Ask your grocer. ' Chinese Laws. ' In lemon colored silk a Chinese diplomat talked about Chinese laws. "Some of our laws, you know, are very stimulating." be said. "For example, Chi owed money to a money lender. Chi would not pay, and the money lender banged himself on Chl's doorpost Chi was condemned to death. You see, be was really responsible for the money lender's death. "A son able to support his parent is imprisoned for life if be won't do so. A son unable to support them is imprisoned for three years, as we hold and quite rightly that there must be something wroug with a young man who can't support bis parents.' "Our police are excellent, thanks to the stimulus of our law. When a crime is committed a sleuth is put upon the case and given, say, thirty days to land the criminal. If the sleuth fails he himself pays the penalty of the crime, less two degrees. That too. is a Just and stimulating law. for if the police can neither prevent nor punish crime then they should be themselves punished for their rank incapacity." New Xork Press. The Football Coach. "Pa, what is a football coach?" "The ambulance, I guess." Boston Transcript

Meanest Man in the A Tramp Robs Chicago, Nov. 6. Hope by hunger and pain well nigh driven from the hearts of Joe and Sam Leonard, orphan brothers wandering helpless through the streets of New Orleans sprang again into life when they heard of a great city in the north where was reputed to be prosperity and happiness for high. and low. Footsore and hungry, one of them blind, and with only. $3 to pay expenses, they started four days ago on the journey to the promised Mecca. Joe is 16 years old. Sam, who is blind, is two years younger. Thursday the police found them on the streets. In the Illinois Central yards they had deserted the box car which carried them the last lap of their long journey. Faint From Hunger. Both were faint from lack of nourishment, yet when taken to the Harrison street police station they refused food and clothes until they were assured they could work to pay. . To policemen Joe told the story of their suffering, and of a devotion like that of David and Jonathan. "I dont care much about myself, but I've 'got to see that Sam gets
Fairbanks Loses 4 'Brush99; Wants To Be Indiana's Beardless Solon
Washington, D. C. Nov. 6. Former Vice President Fairbanks has shaved off his beard. This means almost as much as If some vandal had shaved the Washington monument off the White lot The Fairbanks beard has been as much a part of the Washington facial topography as the monument is a part of the map of the capital. The news has not been received by wireless or any other form of telegraphy; it came more conclusively, viz.: In the form of a photograph of the exvice president taken in China. Th? photograph was received in a bale of correspondence from the Orient It caused almost the commotion In that vicinity today as the rumor about T. Roosevelt in Africa. The photograph pictures a group of important officials standing on a veranda in Pekin. In the middle is Mr. Fairbanks. There is no mistake about him; as he is twice as tall as the surrounding Chinese. He Is also slender like the lily and he wears his familiar frock coat It is Mr. Fairbanks. But the brush Is gone. He has preserved merely the flowing mustache. The chin is exposed to the merciless gaze of the beholder. The chin not only retreats; it runs straight back into the Adam's apple, where the merger with the rest of his anatomy is unobtrusively effected.

along all right, he said. "Ton he's blind." Sam left his chair and went over? to put his arm about his brother. "Father died seven years ago, and mother didn't live lone afterwards. She had to work too hard. We tried; to make ber rest, but she wouldn't. Then I had Sam to take care of. He had sore eyes, and pretty soon ha went blind. Anxious About Brother. "It was awful hard for ma to get anything to do where I could look after Sam that was when he was small er than he is now. Then somebody told us about Chicago. We got In box car and rode up Into Tennessee. "They put as off and we got another car in a day. It got cold, so I bad to put my coat on Sam.

"If youH just help me get Sam started toward an education I dont care what happens to me." The boys were comfortably clothed and police officials will seek employ meat for them. The politicians here are of one mind about it They are sure that Mr. Fairbanks has made up his mind t3 run for the senate against Beveridge. who is a smooth shaven man. The politicians think the people may be willing nowadays to stand by a man with a mustache, but that a man ml tlx a beard has a tremendous handicap. - Doing Right - Doing Is the great thing, for If : lately people do what Is right In time they come to like doing It Raskin. $100 Reward. $100 The readers of this paper will be pleased to learn that there Is at least one dreaded disease that science baa been able to cure In all Its stages, and! that Is Catarrh.
