History of the Case. The Bucks Company's prosecution of the officiitlH of the Federation he- j Ran in August, 1 907. The original notion was a tosrt case wherein 1 was sought to enjoin the lai>or un ions from using the "unfair" and "we don't patronize" lists in their fight against firms and individuals. Justice Gould, of tihe Supreme Court of the District of Columbia, hened an Injunction whicn was later made permanent, forbidding the publication of the company's name in t.hDsc President Or*omi>ors in an editorial in "The Fedorutionisl" of last January, claimed that the labor organizations had a right to advise th' 1 r members not to patronize certain firms thai was not friendly to laboi organizations, and made known his tent ion not to obey the Court's order contending that the injunction issued was in derogation uf the rights < f labor and thi> press and an a huso of the injunctive power of the Count Co i lavs, Mitchell and Morrison subsequently wore cited for contempt and this phase of the case has been before the Court for many months the proceedings taking the form of a hearing of testimony before an examiner and many arguments.

Luis Mora of New York city, owns a Washington relic which, bo far as Is known, Is the only one of Its kind In existence. It Is one of the six medallions which were made to ordor for General Lafayette. Before Lafayette took leave of the officers of his staff, says the Circle, ho had those medallions made In Paris, and presented them to the six ofllcers Immediately under htm.

Moralists say that the emotion of Earning; makes women ugly. It is not necessary to take the word of the moralists for that. Gaming does not make women ugly, it unmasks them, and it is of that that they must be warned. It is natural enough, since they play passionately, and in playing they forget the world and their faces. So much the worse for those who do as Jezebel. Jean I^orrain has left terrible pictures of old painted faces, the natural condition of which is revealed by the excitement of play. The Postage Stamp Province. Manitoba, which has long been dubbed the "Postage Stamp Province," will soon be in a position to lose her nickname.
