Editor lb Foetoffice U Mooni du aiattar THE ANTHRACITE DECISION. The roads carrying coal out from "at anthracite field of Pennsylvania 3kava been hauled up before the Inter Bases eonueeroe commission ia an In wafniry concerning the mining and sbip pia of coal. However the queation -aff transportation was the main ques- liae investigated. During the progreaa of the inqury a Aim and was made for a contract that the road made relative to the pur chase and sale of coal. The demand "sas refused by the federal district judjre, concerning which he nays: The cootracta in question are parts oof the machinery by which thia com 'hsnation prevented the building of a wt road. If the defendants were be- "rof roeeuted under the .Sherman aoti -trust act for having entered a conibi- .1 nation, agreement or contract in re -sfcraint of trade, the contracts in owe- ioa would be relevant testimony. This, tffcftwrrer, ia not a prosecution under the anti-trust act, nor is the interstate enanmerce commission the forum be- Jnw which auch a prosecution is con tfucted. Aainraciie nas oecome almost a 'aeuasity. Upon ita cheap production and distribution depends the success Yf numberless industries, as is the rase with life Itself. If there exists any combination that stifles trade in tfcU industry the people must get at At. It ia evident that a contract in some sway prejudicial to'tbe public interest does not exist, else why do the rail rroad magnates refuse to turn on the JightV If the interstate commerce commis Aerleet Shertcake.

Thia ml Is for one cupful of flour, four teaspoonfula of baking pow der, two teaapooufuls of sugar and half a teaspoonful of salt sifted to gether. Into, thia work four table spooufuft of butter.

A sweet sauce which may be served with the shortcake la made by adding to a cupful of the fruit juice one tahltwpoonrul of cornstarch wet in a little water and hoiled for a few minutes. A tablespoouful of butter is melted into the Kiiiv-e, and a table spoonful of lemon Juice is added junt before serving. 1 Wmklng Grim 7 Thing:.

Saadwfchee. . .. A word or two about sandwich mat lng. First of, all be sure that the bread la twenty-four hours old and of flue grain that will not easily crumble. The knife must be as sharp a possible! The carving knife will be found good for thia purpose. Get everything ready before cutting the bread, the butter being soft enough to spread easily, Cut off the crust of the loaf, making a good thick slice of it; then cut the first sandwich slice as thin a possible and butter It, next butter the loaf and cot another thin slice. Place the two, but tered aides together until ready to be filled. Cut the rest of the sandwiches In the same way. If the sandwiches are preferred without crust, put, to gether half a dozen that exactly fit and cut down through the outer edges, then diagonally through the pile. Make each large sandwich into two or three small trlungular ones. Tile them oo the dish ou which they are to be served, cover them at once with a til bie iinpkin wrung out In cold water and set them in a cool place. They will keep fresh und moist for several hours. I Chicken, tongue, hum and sardines are always favorite things, but almost any PICKINGS FROM FICTION. Moat of us look best at a little dis tance from one another. "Paul Kel- ver, . .

ANOTHER TERRIBLE DISASTER .Last Monday evening about 6 o'clock ne of the moat distressing of our re tent chain of disasters occurred, when 4ba town of Heppner, Oregon, was de stroyed, ' Karly In the afternoon a thunder storm occurred, covering a wide region f country, and later a heavy rainstorm set in, many of the small streams sSMrerflowing their banks in a short "time. Bridges were swept away like straws. Huge boulders weighing a ton were carried down by the current and many people were killed by being crushed Against a rocky bluff. ... The town contained a population of about 1,250 inhabitant. So heavy awaa the downpour of water that a wall water twenty feet high rushed down Xbe gulch ia which Heppner is situated. At least 500 people have lost their Uses, besides the loss of hundreds of Tiorses, cattle, sheep and hogs in the 3ttoma, Hardly had the news spread abroad 'before efforts were being made to send the sufferers relief. The citiwms of inwuaod started a relief fund and wised .65,000 within a few houra. It really seems that it never rains tutit pours. ' A Candlestick Rack. To make a candlestick rack buy a small bracket, enamel it white and fix it firmly over a long piece of board, sandpapered and enameled white also. Into this at intervals fix large brass hooks, and "between the hooks neatly nail a little band of cut brass or copper, bent so as to hold a box of matches be longing to each candlestick dependent on the books. In the center of the board, under where the top bracket is A (Jnlqar Carpet Fastener. . The oft repeated Joke of the man who walked the floor at night with the baby and trod on a stray carpet tack Will have to lie laid on the shelf for good aud all If the tack shown in the accom panying illustration shall find favor as a substitute for the flat beaded and sharp pointed fastener which has been in use for so many years. There is one great recommendation for this inven tion. In case of a fire it Is but a mo ment's work to pull the carpet from the floor, and that, too, without auv danger of tearing the fabric. This tack has one long end, which Is inserted In a bole close to the baseboard and re celves nearly all the strain of the stretched carpet, the short, pointed end only entering the wood a short dis- A OOKVBHIXNCK. fixed, nail a small slate, gild or enamel the framework of It and attach to it, by a small piece of brass chain, a slate pencil.

The candle sticks belonging to the others will be found by them waiting their arrival. and the slate is Intended for the out- goers to write their names oh and to scratch out as they return, so that "last In" bolts the door.

Then add them all to the lemon Juice. Put a large cube of ice in the punch bowl and Just before serving add the carbonic water, which has previously been chilled.

Edinburgh Be view. When the Barber Wan a Wit. In original literature the barber is a great figure, and Arabian tales are full of him. In Italy and Spain be was often the brightest man in town, and his shop was beadq and intrigue. Jasamin became famous as a poet in southern France and re cited his verses with razor, scissors. brush and comical gestures as he dress ed the hair and beard of fine ladles and gentlemen in his shop. He had a great run, made money, hived fame, and Smiles made a book about him.
