Washington, March 13. John L. Griffith, United States consul at London, writes tho state department that an earneet effort bar, been exerted for tome time pant in London and in tho larger provincial Kngltah cities to Induce the Kngllsb consumer to buy English made goods in increasing ing quantities. It was thought that vhen merchandise imported from other countries had to bear the designation of the country of its origin It Svould In ail probability stimulate English buying of Knxlifh goods; but it does not seem to havo that effect. It has been suggested it. Instead of requiring the designation of the country of origin, attention were called to the fact that the goods Imported had not been made in Great llrltlan or in any of her itosuesslonif. the sale might have been advanced. This movement, Mr. Griffiths Bays, must bo considered In connection with the agitation for an empire trade-mark, designed to enable purchaHers to distinguish at once Hi ll Ian goods and to show their patriotism by purchaHing them in preference to those pro,luccd in foreign countries. The movement was started by the Union Jack Industrial league. This league supplies traders with n show card of uniform design, hhowliiK that the article displayed Is (a ltriiit.li 'manufacture," Hritlrh 'made," Itritish "product," or Mritlsh "grow." It holds meetings in the provinces under the auspices of local chambers of commerce, and Is doing thorough and systematic mlssionury work on behalf of the British manufacturer. It In stated that a sufficient number of representative leading Hrltiah merchants and manufacturers have signified thHr willingness to take part In the all-Hrltish shopping week exhibit to Insure Its success. It Is asserted' thut the Idea is not anti-for
eign, simply pro-Hrttl8h, and that as!
Great Hiitlan imposes no restrictions on the Importation of Roods from foreign countries she must make a special effort In call atteniion to her own manufactures. Another feature has developed In the all-Hrltish shopping movement. It la proposed that the "fair of fashions" to be held In conned Ion with I ho festival of empire and Imperial exhibition at tho Crystal palace this summer, hall bo changed from the origin-tl conception of an exhibition of world's fashions to an exhibition simply of lirillsh modes and' fashions. If this Idea Is carried out all foreign exhibits will be excluded, and everything shown In the fair of fashions will be of either nrltish manufacture or made from Itritish manufactured goods. Of Interest to Americans. As an indication of the strength of the present effort to induce the Kngllsh people to buy Knglish Rood a In preference to those of forelen manufacture. It may bo norcd, Mr. Griffith says, that although the organization of tho fair of fashions on cosmopolitan lines has .been in progress for nome months a complete change will now take place, und. disregarding th work already done, the new undertaking, to make It an entirely Kngllsh exhibit, will bo zealously prosecuted. Ilritlsh dressmakers naturally Indorse the proposal with great enthusiasm. The significance of the all-nritish shopping week must bo evident to the American manufacturer. Mr. Griffiths nays, and should Impress on him tho necessity of the utmost activity and vigilance if he hopes to retain his present standing In the Kngllsh market, lie must take the utmost care that he executes orders promptly, that he fills them accurately, that his packing is thorough and scientific, and that he extends approximately at least the smae trading facilities as are offered by British manufacturers. Its Industrial Patriotism. -With the spirit of industrial pat riot Ism which Is sweeping over this country," says Mr. Griffiths, It Is important that American manufacturers should In the future, as in the past, maintain the highest level of excellence In their products. The cost of an article will probably for all time be the determining factor in Its purchase, other things being equal, and so price as well as excellence must continue to be the primary consideration with the American exporter."

(Palladium Special) Eaton, O.. March IZ. "If a representative of your papvr will be in the Preble county court house Monday. March 13. 1911, at 9 a. m., the readers of your publication will know how matters are conducted at the Eaton temple of justice. Yours, James J. Boyle, Author of "Frenzied Justice" Inviting an audience to hear an airing of his long-continued grievances, and seeking published notoriety, Jas. J. Boyle, former New Parisian, has sent out numerous cards bearing the above to nearly all the daily papers in thh-i section of Ohio. The story of Boyle's lone-handed fight in Preble county's courts has been frequently repeated, jet remains Interesting because of the apparent forlornness of his hope of winning the controversy and because it involves so many high legal circles here and elsewhere. Several years ago the Norris addition to New P;uis was laid out and platted by its owner. Streets and alleys were dedicated and given to the city, but no boom happened along to Increase the quiet demand for property, hence the thoroughfares were not Improved. After several years Boyle purchased a portion of the addition, and probably not knowing that certain portions had been devised to (he city, fenced his purchase in ary remained the undisputed possessor of the same for several years. Later Improvements were made in the city and that portion dedicated to the town
thrown open. Whereupon, Boyle soiiRht damages for what he supposed was his own property. The city council, after due conference and advictw f Imply took possession of certain strips of laud, believing It belonged to the? city. Boyle at once sought to recover damages in the common pleas court, but lost his case. Several efforts to file similar new actions failed and he carried the matter to the circuit court, which sustained the lower court. Many attorneys were visited in the hope of again getting the matter into court, but without effect. Boyle then published a booklet of many pages, whlc'i he styled "Frenzied Justice." The pamphlet was given a free and wide circulation. Among other things (herein contained was the statement that "Jesse James in his palmiest days was an honest man as compared to thieves of attorneys and judges Mho practiced in the second Judlcwial district." The booklet was Fulphurie, vehement und slanderous, as Is attested by numerous citizens of the county. Into whose hands they fell. Boyle was. In consequence thereof, indicted by a grand jury for criminal libel and contempt. He was arrested here und spent one night in jail, gave bail and the next day brought before Judge Klam Fisher, who administered some sound advice. The libel atul eontempt proceedings were never pushed. Not content with a goodly outlay of money in a forlorn cause. Boyle continued to push Ids claims for damages, and falling to secure the services of an attorney, filed his own action, tdgiilng his papers "James J. Boyle, A Free-born American Citizen." In tho present action for damages he seeks $17,777.77 and names as defendants "The Mayor and City Council of the Village of New Paris, Ohio, Marion Pierson, of New Paris, Ex-Judge Elam Fisher, of Eaton; Judge J. I. Allread, of Greenville; Judge Theadore Sullivan (now deceased.) of Troy; John A. Shauck; Judge Harrison, of Springfield; Judge Edgar A. Beldon. of Hamilton; James A. Gilmore, of Eaton; Clement H. Gilmore, of Dayton: Guy C. Baker and J. M. Bickle. of Greenville; John E. Egan, of Dayton; M. O. Burns, of Hamilton, and others." Boyle is a tailor by occupation and Is now living in Middletown, from which place the petition and cards were sent out. Judge Teegarden, of Greenville, came to Eaton Monday morning and will give ear to the action, which will probably again be dismissed. The plaintiff evidently anticipates such action, for he has already announced the practical completion of a second and more sulphuric volume of "Frenzied Justice.
BOY COUNTERFEITER Fifteen Year Old Lad Circulated Bad Pennies.
New Bedford. Mass., March 14. Secret servise agents, with years of experience In runnina down desneratA
counterfeiters of all types, are baffled
by the case of Antone Aives. the fifteen-year-old Mattanoisett lad. It Is
charged that he made spurious pen
nies, witn wnlch he victimized the merchants of this city. Alves is believed to be the youngest person ever arrested In the Vnited States charged with counterfeiting. The pennies are very good imitations, made of copper, and appeared as if they had been used considerably. The engraving, while exactly like that on genuine pennies, was somewhat blurred, but only an expert would detect this. For days and nights the detectives worked on the case. Several were Iosted In the stores where the coins
had been passed, but no more appear
ed there. Their investigations finally led them to the Atlas tack factory, in
Fairhaven. where young Alves is em
ployed. There they discovered sever
al copper disks about the size of a no Ti
ny, which had been cut from a largej
sneci or copper uscu in tnc manufacture of tacks.
(American News Service) Washington, March 15. Among persons here who possess first hand knowledge of certain phases of the situation in Mexico by reason of their former residence in the southern republic the opinion is almost unanimous that the man who is destined to ultimately succeed Porflrio Diaz as the head of the government is Gen. Bernardo Ryes, for many years governor of the state of Nuevo Leone of which Monterey is the capital. Reyes is a man over sixty years old, able, enterprising and deeply believed in by the army. General Reyes was born in the city of Guadalajara and at the age of 16 went into the ranks of the Republican army, which was then fighting the French invaders. He at once became noted for his gallantry and was a military personage of distinction before he had reached the age of 25 years. He was present at the siege of Queretaro, when the Archduke Maximilian was made prisoner. After peace was career and figured in several minor revolutions with great valor. The battle of Villa Union was the scene of his greatest triumph. It was for conspicuous gallantry here that he was made brigadier general. In this conflict he was wounded three times. As a reward for hi3 services in the field General Reyes was appointed military governor of Nuevo Leone, and it was said that the real reason for the tatter's appointment as minister of war was to bring him to the City of Mexico where a more watchful eye could be kept upon his movements. The change, however worked to the profit of General Reyes. He learned much through his association with Diaz, Limantour and other men of great ability within the government circles. As minister of war, moreover he had many opportunities to strengthen his popularity with the army and it is said he used these to the best advantage. Among other things he Increased the pay of the soldiers and Introduced many minor reforms that tended to better their lot. It was generally believed at that time and afterwards that the troops stood ready to follow Reyes in any movement. As a consequence, when Gen. Reyes resigned his post as minister of war and again assumed his favorite office as governor of Nuevo Leone, the Diaz government continued to keep a sharp eye on him. In fact the government understood the situation so well that no complete regiment of troops ever was left in the command of Reyes for more than six months. After that it was broken up on one or another excuse and sent to some other part of the country. About five years ago when war threatened with Guatemala and troops were rushed by the Mexican government to the Central American border President Diaz was sick and there were fears for his recovery. Coincident with this situation an excuse was found to withdraw nearly all the troops from Reyes territory and leave him only skeleton formations. After that he had few troops at his disposal. Again about two years ago when discussion was rife as to tho probable successor of Diaz, following the election of Ramon Corral to 'the vice presidency, anti-administration riots occurred in many parts of the republic and cries of "Viva Reyes!" and "Down with Corral!" were heard on all sides. President Diaz then endeavored to get General Reyes out of the way by appointing him to go to Europe on a special mission, but the plan was not successful. Nevertheless, Reyes, with admirable self control, refrained at the time from taking any advantage of his acknowledged popularity and from the beginning of the present insurrectionary movement he has remained inactive, feeling confident, perhaps, that the course of evenjs would ultimately be to his advantage. General Reyes is described as short of stature, a typical Spanish-American in appearance, quick of action and rapid of speech. He is said to possess a magnetic personality, which especially appeals to the young men of his country, and he has long been their idol. In his long career he has shown himself to be not only capable a3 a military leader, but also an efficient administrator of civic affairs. Under his rule the state of Nuevo Leone became tile most progressive in Mexico and the capital city of Monterey the most thoroughly Americanized city in the country.
St. Louis, Mo., March 15. Captain John Rowland, 73 years old, who commanded Ohio and Mississippi river steamers a half century ago, came all the way here from London just to have a farewell look before he died. He found the river still here, but that was all. There was not a packet at the wharf, general spring navigation not having opened up, and the old river men of Captain Rowland's day was gone too. The Captain and his wife, Mrs. Mary Scott Rowland, a lecturer, started back toward NewYork. A friend of mine in New Orleans told me how it would be," said the Captain before he left the city. "But I did not know it would make me feel so bad. I wrote this friend that I
i was coming over to see the river for
the first time since 1SS7. He wrote back: "Come and look at it; go down to the bank and drop a tear in it. It probably will be the last time you will ever see it. And when you have seen it, you will never want to see it again'. I dropped the tears. "And do you know, 1 never want to see it again. It is so changed. Everybody I asked about was dead. As to Mark Twain, he never was a good river man. He was a born writer. Of course, we didn't know that when he was on the river, but all the old fellows knew there was something ailing Clemens."

Chicago. March 15. Who is the greatest dude in the country? Champ Clark says J. Hamilton Lewis. Col. Lewis says: "I am attracted by the qualification that he makes of my being the greatest dude in the country. If by 'in the country he means America at large,
this is refuted by the dapper presence of the Coruscating Beveridge of Indi
ana, the flowing white front and min
isterial lawn bowknot of Champ Clark himself and the cute peg-topped trous
ers of Speaker Cannon.
"But if my friend means by 'in the country' simply the rural districts.
when I strike them I must yield the
;alm to Congressman Rainey of 111!
nois, whose sombrero hat and Prince Albert coat have beaten me in every
county fair contest.
"I see that Clark says my whiskers
are red and bristle in sparks of fire
He remarks that when I entered congress he had seen many a dazzling
spectacle break over the horizon but
that I burst forth in a combination of colors that eclipsed all nature. I was really modestly clad in a yellow waist coat, striped trousers and light frock" From taliors and makers of men's furnishing goods it was learned that
Col. Lewis posses a wardrobe item ized as follows:
Twenty business suits, twenty pairs of shoes, ten cutaways and tuxedos,
forty suits silk underwear, five suits
of evening clothes, ten soft hats, 365
neckties, five silk ties, twenty fancy
vests, fifty shirts.
A representative of one of the large silk dealers, with his finger to his lips
whispered a profound secret: "Col. Lewis," he said, "buys no neck
ties. He buys yards of silk and folds
his own neckties."
