' So constables are to be sent back to York county, at the request of county cfflcals and Senator Brloe. We ? agree wltb"tu.e Columbia Record that "ibis seems curious when we take In ' consideration the allegation that is ' conticously made to us that whore a j ctunty votes for prohibition tbat fact 1 sbows ttat public sentiment is back of it and that sentiment woald see to it that prohibition is enforced. There ' seems to b3 something wrong with > the allegation or with public sentiment and we wtuldlike for somebody to explain to us what is the trouble. : In York, for instance, did the vote in the dispensary election represent the sentiment of the ma'oritj,:? If so why, is it ncoeisary to call in batsl.de aid to ' enforce the law ? The truth' is that the enfoic ment of prohibition is a dream which cannot be real z 3d and i we might as well realJzj the fact from what experieica we have al| ready had with it and consider the ! question from a practical standpoint.' He Advertised. f: Oace there was a boy named John? we think his last name was Wanna maker, or maybe It was Money-maker anyhow, his name was Jobn, witb some sort of a maker attached to his last name. He owned fifty yards of calico, three pairs jeans, a half dczen pair of borne made yarn socks and five pairs of boots. He called this a dry goods store thrcugh a Philadelphia newspapers ana c nirea toseu a pair 01 socks for 39 csnts. The den't bjlleve in advertising merchants laughed! young John spent 865 with the Phila. delphia Ledger to advertise just one t>l t e, and had less than $100 worth of ga "is. He was cautioned by the mer hams who 'who knew it don't pa? 1' It was thru sympathy that they offered hiir. advice. But John didn't listen to tbem, and went and blew his money <l foolishly; and today poor John sees the results of his misdoings?he has so many large dry goods stores that he can hardly find time to study his Sunday school lesson. Breakfast Food Humbug. With tht muliplicity of cereals and ind breakfast foods that has been indented and manufactured the head of in average family is up against it vhen he goes down town to order his supply of inside matter sent to bis 'louse.

A dispatch from''Denver, Ool., says Miss Vivian George, daughter of F. George, a wealthy Los Angeles merchant, and Ralph Loughbrough, an artist and cartoonist, of Kalamzo, M'c i.,! are believed to have perished in the mountains near Arapahoe Peak, fifty miles northwest of Denver. Tbey were members of a bunting party, and left Down's jniniDjj, camp on Saturday momiDg, Dec." 16. Tbey have been missing since tbat afternoon. .. Hunting parties bave been rciuriDg tbe mountains since tbeir disappearance, but tbe only trscs found was Mr. Lcu^hbrough's rifle. Tne s?arob still continues, and tbe searchers are being added to by new recru'ts. Miss George's father has offered a large reward for tbe return of bis daughter, dead or alive. Miss George is well known in Denver, where she has often bien the guest of friends. Sbe is an heiress and when presented at the Eoglisb court last year was dr clared by Klrg Elward to be one cf tbe most beautiful of America's beautiful women.1 ?Jl? ? ? nnt.hiicHaat.Irt hnnt?r. and QUC 10 aia cu VUU0IM???V when & hunting party was proposed last Saturday she entered into it with eagerness. Mr. and Miss George, acoompanied by George Bellidgton, a prominent Salt Lake City attorney, and Ralph Loughbrough, followed a iruide from Dowd's camp to Windy Point, near Arapahoe Peak. There tbey found a line, despite a heavy snowstorm, and started-, about fifty yards apart, to stalk what was believed to be an tile. When Miss George and the artist failed to return it was thought at first tbey had taken refuge In some shel tered spot and would return as soon as the fury of the storm abated, but they were not seen afterward. JUWJJLB 8AVED BY DREAM. Salesman Woko Up in Time to Frighten Burglar Away. Louis Pcpkin, a jewelry salesman of Kansas Olty arrived In New York four days ago, with $2,300, which he carried in a belt around his waist, and a satchel, which he says contains til, 000 worth of samples. He hired a room In the boarding house atrl42 Clinton street, and made do seoretofthe treasures he carried. At night when he went to bed, he put the belt under the pillow and the satchel under the bed. Eaily T1 ursday morning, as Pop kin described it afteiward, he bad a fcorrihln rirflflm. Ha thOUffht the bouse was revolving around, while a fierce tornado raged without. Then suddenly the roof caved In, and he woke up just In time to see a man groping under the bed. The burglar fled, and Popkin quickly placed his 'hands under the pillow and found that the bait was gene. He ran down tbe stairs in his night cloths, but the burglar was nowbere in sight when he reached the street. He found a policeman at the next corner, and when they went bse^ tc investigate they founa money .strewn in the halls and on the stairways leac iog to Popkln's room. They gathered up $1,300, whJc^i the burglar must have dropped out of the belt as he ran. The . satchel was safe. Max Adler, of 163 Brccme street was &uts(quently aires!,ed cn suspicion of beifrg the-thief. . lift) IT 11 U A LobDr or Boodlers. It has Come out in the'*testimony before New York's insurance committee that there is in existence a lobby supported by great financial interests provided with a j ?int boodle fund and maintained ror tne purpose or ngnir in ft any measure that threatens to advance the public Interests or curtail the power of special interests Id any particular. Referring to "the scope of the Insurance lobby" the Denver. -News says: "The letters read in the investigation, written by Thoma D. Jordan, former controller of tba Equitable, proved this fact be ,yond a ooubt. The.New York Tribune, in its report of tbe proceedings, said tbat tbe instructions given to lobbyists "revealed a. range of legislation prictlcally without limit. Here are some extracts from these letters: We are in favor of bill No. 99 for che widening and improvement of Wesi One Hundred and Thlrty-fifuh street. Please note we are opposed to assembly introductory bills 135 and 136 Amending the stock corporation law in relation to books, of account of stockholders. Please note that we are vigorously opposed to senate bill 150, Malby. ,:i want to keep track of this measure till it Is killed. We ire vigorously opposed to introductoty. No., .273, .Robinson, ceding to the town of Islip certain water rights. We are interested in Senator Mjran's bill, introductory 350, reducing the rate of interest to 5 per cent. I imagine this latter measure will have a long sleep. I desire to again call your attention to Senators Mai By's bill, introductory 250. We are opposed to this bill. Some of these "objectionable" bills related to the employment) of women and children, some to labor laws i protecting or aiding.the workingman, some relating to tenement houses, to ' the security of guests in hotels, to the taxation of banns apci trust companies and the News asks: "Can , anyone doubt that what is true of the insurance trust and legislation at Albany is alsD true in Washington { and in all state capitals and of many other financial combines? Can they : lODger doubt that machine politics, whatever the party always works 1 with wheels oiled by corporate funds? ! Can they not see that something fun- 1 damental is required to free the nation from sucn a clutch upon its j throat?" | Cotton Ginned. The census bureau has issued a bulletin showing the quantity of cotton ?inned-from tile growth of 1905 "to c Decembe1" 13, to be 9,282,191 bales, * : untirg imud bales as half bales, as J jcmpared with 11,971 477 bales on the 1 same date In 1904, and 3,526,244 bales 1 )fthe sam; date in 1903. 1 PLUNGED INTO ICY WATEE8 An And Saved Men Who Had -Faced D< ath Forty Honrs, Three daring swimmers rescued the Mi two Italian laborers who fjr more a . thaB 40 hours bad been imprisoned in the East river tunnel of the Pjnnsylvanla railroad by a cave in at the &D Long Island City end of the under- he water bcre. Surrounded by water wh'ch threatened to engu f them the 0'( moment the compressed air should fall to hold it in check, the entombed ^ bad kept up constant communication with rapping on the pipes which f0 brought then* air. fr They were almost exhausted when <p tt e three men swam up to the plat- ga form on which they were huddled. It was with difficulty that the res- a cuers induced the frightened men to rr pluoge into tbe water they had dread- q> ed so loDg. Finally this was accomplished, towe?er, the two strong ie swimmers of the three each taking a h< man upon his back while the third ^ swam alongside to lend assistance in p, in cise of need. ^ Ever since tbe cave-In which filled ^ the shore end of the ture where the at men were working jvith water more x chan ICO labcres had worked desper- ej ately to sink a shaft to the point ^ where the men were thought to be. Late today they reached the concrete ^ top of the tunnel. Then the work w became so Udieuj and slow that it Yl seemed that the men could hot be ?) reached while alive. 0( In the meantime powerful pumps C( were working to overcome the inflow ^ of water from the river.

A row boat was sent for, but when it arried It was seen that It must be hours before th$ water should oe suffl tx ciently reduced to permit of the en- E trance of a boat. C Some one at the entrance suggusted c< that the rescuers swim to the exhaust- n ed men. 'Volunteers were not long in E coming forward. Benjamin Li wis, e! himself an old tunnel worker and & C c.u>ln of one of the imprisoned men, A was one of them. Obarles Murdorn was h another and Philip E Hondo was the ai t.hirri Without thoui/h of their oer- h sonal safety these three men plunged a into the ley water at the entrance and b were soon lost to view in the darkness a of the bore. Barely two. feet separat y ed the tunnel top from the surface of tj the flood water. T Thee followed anxious moments for st the watciers outside. The swimmers li bad been gone seemingly an age, M when at last a splashing of water b< brought news to anxious ears that the tf quest bad elided. Lewis soon ap- ti peared in view with one of the en- hi tombed men on h's back. Taen a mighty cheer went up E Hondo next appeared with the second liborers clinging to him desperately. ?! Work in the rescue shaft stopped and all five of the men were tenderly a cared for.
