CHEESE EXPORT FALLS OFF. New Zealand Takes Trade From Can arllan Provinces. Ottawa, Out., Nov". 2. Canada Is losing her hold on tho cheese trsde. Ths production of Canadian checao so far this season la approximately 1,780, 000 boxes, which is only 8,000 boxes in excess of tho production during tho same period last year, but the price re ceived Is, on an average, ono cent pound less than was obtained a year go. In explaining this anomalous situa tion, exporters say that the loer prices aro due to a considerable extent to the Increaao In tho New Zealand cheeso output. Laat year 620,000 box es were mado in Now Zen'and, which five year ago produced only 00,000 boxes. New Zealand's sale of cheeso has now displaced tho Canadian makes on the English market in tho winter sea son. Exploilon Fatal to 12. Johnstown, Pn., Nov. 2.

Senstor Csrter Proposos Method to Obvlato Dond Issue. Denver, Nov. 1. United States Sen ator Thomas C. Carter, of Montana, chairman of the senato committee on irrigation and reclamation of arid lands, arrived In Denvor this momlng, several others of tho committee arriv ing later In tho day. "There are projects now under way," said Senator Carter, "which call for tho expenditure of between $40,000,000 and $CO,000,000 for enterprises which ought to be rushed to completion Im mediately, In order to open up homes for the settlers and to provide for re plenishing of tho reclamation fund. "It has boon suggested that govern ment bonds be Issued to provide the capital necessary. My own idea Is that warrants Issued against the reclama tion fund would serve the purpose equally well. "Thero has already been expended on the Pathfinder system in Wyoming $1, 000,000, but until tho distributing sys tem is completed there will be no pay ments collected by the government, "The Salt river project will require an expenditure of more than $3,000, 000.

"If you will imagine that I had in my balloon car when I went up for rc- connoissance with General M:CIellan tho 100 or 160 horsepower motor en gines of 1909, you will see that I could have ended the Civil war in a week. I will bo able to carry 20 tons on my ex perimental airship," be said. BLIND MAN READS MINDS. Russian Studies Medicine Through His Sixth Ssnso. Chicago. Nov. 1. Ulind from blrtb, but able through telepathy to take the different courses of medicine and sur gery without study, is the remarkable condition of J. W. Bowlotin, a student in the Chicago College of Medicine and Surgery. Bowlotin, ayoung Russian, asserts that through a sixth sense, which he cannot explain, he can read the minds of his friends and classmates, and in thsn manner acquire from them tho knowledge they obtained through bard study. H. Wolk, a roommate of tke myste rious blind student, said yesterday that after completing his studies for an evening, Bowlotin, even though no con versation had passed between them, would bo familiar with the subject which he (Wolk) had been leading. Bowlotin does not believe his power is anything supernatural nor anything be yond what any man could do if ho would think hard. "The whole thing is largely n thing of memory and sound reasoning," he said. "With Wolk here I get along nicely. Wo understand each other thoroughly." ' "Is it true that Wolk reads reads to himself and you understand what ha is reading?'' He replied that it was. Fire bweeps Black Hills. Deadwood, S. D., Nov. 1.

TAFT FAVORS FARM Americans Must Discard Obsolete Methods ot Agriculture, GRIND BEATS CITY'S MAD WHIRL President Deplores the Terdency of Young Men to Drift to City Farmer Independent. Jackson, Miss., Nov. 2. President Taft would have young men of America stay on the farvm with ita plenty and certainty, rather than decide on Ufa in the city. Mr. Taft Indicated his sentiments in this respect in sn ad- dress at the state fair here yesterday. "We must admit," he said, "thn oc cupation of the farmer is among ono cr two of the most independent occupa tions that go to make this country great and a stato which is great bo cause of it is entitled to recognition as typifying Amerlcsnism In the highest degree. " We have arrived at a time in the development of this country and tho world when old methods of agriculture must be discarded, if we would keep op with the procession. Land is becom ing too valuable to treat it in the old wasteful way. I am glad to note Mis sissippi has one of the best agriculture institutions in the country. "Hero you bava been able to restrain that tendency of your young men to come into cities and live in tenements, in order that they may be where the wheels go round. If I were advising a young man as to bis future profession 1 should say to him there probably is greater opportunity for real reward in tbe profession of agriculture than in any other." TARIFF WAR BEGINS. Franco Fires First Shot at New Amer ican Duty Law. Washington, Nov. 2. Franco's Row land for America's Oliver is the action of the Paris government in putting in effect yesterday the maximum tariff States. It did not surprise treasury officials. Ever since notice was given to Paris tbat the reciprocity agreement with Its low rates on both sides of the At lantic so far as tbe two governments were concerned would expire at the end of October, this government has been anticipating tbe step taken at Paris. This government cannot directly meet tbe French maximum until next spring, but the question of what to do has been canvassed. Sparkling wines xcm to bo the most vulnerable point, for officials here do, not assume tbat this is the beginning of a tariff war of itself. A jump from $6 to $9.00 per dozen in the duty on champagne, which is what the restora tion of regular tariff rates means at the UnPed States ports, and tbe unoffi cial talk of prospective substantial raising of that figure to the American maximum when the opportunity comes on March 31, next, have not helped French sentiment toward the United States. It was hardly to be expected, as treasury officials view it, tbat France would figuratively "sit Idly by." Some Classes Barred. Chicago, Nov. 2. Jury Commission er William A. Amberg, testifying to day before Judge Barnes in regard to tho system of drawing jurors, admitted that a large part of tho population of Chicago never had a chance to become jurors. Those whose names are never drawn includo: Laborers, tailors (if foreign), actors, saloonkeepers, bartenders, peddlers, junk dealers, scaVangvrs, porters, cab drivers, waiters, train dispatchers, railway tower men, theological, law and medical students, boilermakers.

Captain Stephen Wood, head of the city detec tivo bureau, told members of the de partment tonight that if they fail to get definite results in tho investigation they should get out of tho bureau. Captain Wood even declared that should his department fail to run down tho perpetrators of tbe prolonged ser ies of crimes, ho would resign. Comet Observed at Kiel, Cambridge, Mass., Noy. 2.
