A general decline in everything in the eating
line, seems to be the order of the day. Some
people say that it is occasioned by the immense
crops, others think that it is because the late elec
tion foreshadows Democratic times and the end
of all trusts very likely.
Since the recent Democratic cyclone the Repub.
lican newspapers are very kindly advising the
Democrats what to do in the next Congress as if
they didn’t know themselves. These Republican
wiseacres certainly display a remarkable incapac-
ity for not minding their own business.
It is a trifle singular that there has been no new
rulings for the rural letter carriers of late, For-
merly there was a new one every ten days. The
last ruling I think, was if the carriers used a bicy-
cle. they were obliged to carry an umbrella to
protect the mail, rather a difficult job that, some.
thing like the young lady caught in a thunder
storm wearing a five foot hat with a three inch
umbrella for protection.

shipments, nothing seems to be too much trouble
for either one, but all transactions and business
receive prompt and immediate attention. We
are among the fortunate few.

Johnstone Killed " Flight.
Ralph Johnstone was killed by @
drop of 800 feet in his runaway biplane
at Overiand Park at Denver, Col. He
tried to remove his helmet after he
struck the earih, gave a few short
gasps and expired. Nearly every bone
in his body was broken.
From the time he lost control of the
machine until it struck the earth it
turned three complete somersaults,
and it is a question whether something
broke or whether the machine was
broken by the strain of these evolu
tions before it struck the ground.
When the crowd saw the machine
whirling downward there was a scat
was clear of people until tne crash.
Then there was a rush to the spot
where Johnstone's crushed and bloudy
body lay. Police were the first at his
side and lifted the motor which bore
him down. Then the crowd was driven
back and a canvas stretcher secured
to remove the body. Forced backward
by the officers, the crowd next rusied
to where the lighter parts of the ma
chine lay in a tangled heap thirty
feet away, and before the police could
prevent it the framework and every
thing had been broken or tora to bits
and carried away by souvenir fiend.

Inasmuch as the Anti-Bribery league

It is charged that the buying otf

Stock ‘Swindle of $50,000
Federal Authorities , Raid Offices and Arrest
Firm.
Federal officials raided the offices
occupied by Burr Brothers, in New
York, a corporation dealing in stocks
and other securities.
The raid was made on warrants
charging the use of the mails to de
fraud investors.
Postoffice officials say that the con
cern has sold to investors at par value
between $40,000,000 and $50,000,000 of
stock in various companies, most of
which have gone out of existence or
become bankrupt, and none in a sin
gle instance paying the dividends held
out in the promises of the concern.
The raid was planned by Warren W.
Dickson, postoffice inspector, in charge
of the New York district, and Post
master General Frank Hitchcock and
Robert A. Sharpe, chief postoffice in-
spector.
The officers arrested were: Sheldon
C. Burr, president; F. Harry Tobey,
vice president, and Eugene H. Burr,
secretary and treasurer.
The three officials of the company
arrested were arraigned before Com:
missioner Shields and held in $20,00¢
bail each. Pending the furnishing of
bail they were sent to jail.
Hundreds of complaints have been
made against the corporation by in
vestors, who charge that they have
been swindled through false represen:
tations made to them concerning the
profits that were being realized by
those who put their money into the
various oil, timber, copper, lead, zinc
and gold companies.
After the raid Postmaster General| the
Hitchcock gave out an official memo
randum concerning Burr Brothers.
The firm was organized several years
ago and in 1907 was incorporated with
a capital of $100,000 and later increas
ed to $300,000. The memorandum says
that among other companies the Bur:
Brothers are selling the stock of the
Buick Oil company, a concern with
$5,000,000 capital.
The memorandum further states as
follows:
“They have also organized the fol

“All the stock in these companie:

“Practically the entire stock in the
companies has been sold to the public
and at the present time all these com-
panies have gone out of existence,
“They have also sold large amounts
of stock in the Red Top Mining and
Leasing company, capitalized at $1,

capitalized at $1,000,000; Holcomb Au-
tomatic Engine company, capitalized
at $5,000,000; Cottonwood Copper com:
pany, capitalized at $1,000,000.
“All of these companies are at the
present time out of existence,
“They also sold the stock of the
Vitak company, a $1,000,000 corpora:
tion, which is now in the hands of a
receiver, and they are at the present
time also engaged in the sale of lots
in Lincoln, N. J.
“It can safely be said that they have
sold stock at par value from $40,000,
000 to $50,000,000 in the various com-
panies; have an extensive suite of of
fices in the Flat Iron building, in New
York, and at times have had offices in
Cleveland, Chicago, Los Angeles and
San Francisco.
“In every instance they have prom:
ised large dividends on the stock sold,
in addition to an increase in the value
of the stock, but not in a single case
have any of the companies paid any
dividends, and, as stated above, practi
cally all of them have been complete
failures.”
Tolstoi Is Dead; Wife lil.
With her husband lying dead in the
bare room of a railroad flag station
Russia, the condition
of Countess Tolstoi rapidly grew
worse, and physicians who have been
attending her and the aged count be-
came seriously alarmed for her life.
After a desperate entreaty of the
physicians for the privilege of seeing
her husband alive once more, the
countess was allowed to be present at
the death of the author and secial re-
former, which occurred on Saturday.
She collapsed immediately after Tol
stoi’s last spark of life flickered out.
It is understood that the body will
be taken back to the village of Yas-
naya Polyana, where he was born and
where he spent his youth. It is be-
lieved that his known wishes in regard
to his funeral will be obeyed.
Whatever the form, however, which
consigns the great seexer ior or truth to
his last resting place, the ceremonies
will undoubtedly be witnessed by a
gathering of the greatest men of Rus-
sia. Though he died without making
his peace with the church, from which
he had been excommunicated, the
great Russian writer is suré to be
honored in death, even as in life, by
superior intellects.
Count Tolstoi died without regaini
sufficient consciousness to enable hi
to say farewell or cast a loving look
upon his wife and children.
His last words were: “There are
millions of people and many sufferers
in the world. Why always anxious
about me?”
Bridegroom a Widower Eight Years
When Bride Was Bern.
Henry Dickson, sixty-eight years of
age, and Miss Mary Barkowitch, aged
seventen years, both of Tunkhannock,
near Wilkes-Barre, Pa., were married
in Scranton by Rev. Dr. G. C. Lyman.
Dickson is a farmer and he had
been a widower for eight years when
his new bride was born. The young
bride after the marriage said:
“I'm sure we will be very happy, as
he is so gocd. and I know he will take
good care of me.”
Dickson met the young girl a vear
ago and has been courting her ever
since. A short time ago she got per
