Importers and . dealers in tea will be very much interested in a dispatch re ceived yesterday - by Customs Collector Stratton from the Secretary of the Treas ury. , It has been the ruling heretofore that tea which on January 1 of next yea shall have been. three years in bonded warehouses must pay the duty of 10 cents per - pound on withdrawal. After that date, notwithstanding that Congress has abolished' the duty on tea after January 1, i?03, tea which on that date shall have been in bonded warehouse less than three years may be withdrawn without paying any duty. " It has been represented to the Secretary of the Treasury that certain importers whose tea will have been in bonded ware house three iyears or more on the first of the year have paid the duty and have asked that it may be refunded " on the withdrawal of the merchandise. The following is a copy of the dispatch: The department, upon further consideration of the subject, now holds that, inasmuch as the question whether duty paid tea remaining in bonded warehouses after January 1, 1903, will be entitled to a refund of the duties pal>i thereon will not arise untib that date, it ia not deemed admissible to make a positive rul ing on the matter at this time. The depart ment's recent ruling that such tea would be entitled to refund Is, therefore, recalled. THREATENED TO SMASH - HIS.

FRIENDS Y FORM: CHILDREN'S SOCIETY Move la Regarded as an Attempt to Head Off Investigation at • > ' *. -PointfLoma. NEW- YORK, Nov. 20.— Wha^t is believ ed here to be an attempt to thwart? if possible, the Investigation of Katherine A. Tingley's Raja Yoga school at Point Loma, Cal., was learned of to-day by the receipt of this dispatch by ' Superintendent K. Fellows Jenkins of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children: "SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 20.— Tingley partisans Incorporated yesterday chil dren's' society at San Diego and immed iately investigated school." This was from Charles Sonntag, presi dent of the San Francisco Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children, which, in conjunction with the New York so ciety, has taken up the work of Investi gating Mrs. Tingley's organization, the "Universal Brotherhood and Theosophical Society." On only, one other occasion, and that ten years ago in New Jersey, was a chil dren's society . hastily organized and in corporated to protect, as was then shown and is now believed to be. the case, an In stitution that was under suspicion and ac tually under investigation. The effort then proved futile. ' "- "By the receipt of this dispatch from Mr. Sonntag.T Jenkins said to-night, "we are aware of the extremes to which Mrs. Tingley and her followers and apparent supporters are driven. The purpose of u-corporating that society in San Diego is very apparent. The next thing that will be done will be the sending broadcast over the United States of circulars that 'Mrs. Tingley's school has been, investi gated.-by the Children's Society, of San Diego, and that it has been found to be all that Mrs.' Tlngley claims for it,' etc "Once before we had such an experi ence, .where a society wag organized for just such a purpose, but it availed nothing. The public will not .be hood winked. Our investigation untler Mr. Sonntag's direction will be pursued and tho truth will be made known.". There were received to-day voluminous statements bearing on Mrs.' Tingley per sonally and her organization. The writ era announced that they were willing to substantiate their statements by appear ing on the witness stand. These wit nesses will be brought to this city to be in readiness to testify ' next week, when the hearing is to be reopened before the board of inquiry at Ellis Island. In the case of the»"Lotus Buds" there was some question to-day whether Mrs. Tlngley would personally appear for cross-exam ination at the hands of Elbrldge T. Ger ry. It is believed she will not.

Everybody in the Northwest knows Col- onel Daniel Searles, the veteran journal- ist and publicist of Butte. January 10, 1900, tho colonel writes: I "I used a couple of bottles of Newbro's Herpicide with marvelous results. The dandruff disap- peared; a new crop of hair has taken root, and the bald spot is rapidly being cov- ered." Herpicide is the only hair prep- aration that kills the dandruff germ that digs up the scalp In scales as its burrows its way to the root of the hair, where it destroys the vitality of the hair,' causing the hair to fall out. Kill the dandruff germ , with Herpicide. Sold by all drug- gists.' Send 10 cents in stamps for sample to The Herpicide Co., Detroit, Mich. AllllA Ammunition, Hunting and 9l B 11 fit" Sporting Goods.

Ygu Can Make No Mistake in Joining the, Pommer-Eilers Music Company's Piano Uliibs. two Hundred and . Sixty-Seven People Have Already Done So, and Mill I hey Gome. The recent announcement of our piano club plan and the prices has , proved a genuine eye-opener . to piano . buyers. 'Scores of people who have read our ad- i vertisements have come to investigate the plan, and becoming completely convinced of the saving they could secure have de- parted enthusiastic members of our clubs, happy in procuring instruments at 'prices they never dreamed possible. This is ¦what has given our clubs their phenom- enal growth— big values and little prices. A single week nearly filled one club with more than satisfied customers, and now thtre are altogether over 297 members. .. THIS IS THE IDEA. It Is simply the wholesale Idea applied to retail buyers, made possible by selling , large. numbers of pianos. You join a club of 100 members, and we give that club the : same' wholesale rate that -we would give ; a dealer who purchased- the same num- 1 ber of pianos. There are .four of the » clubs, and you can secure membership in | them under these conditions: Pay $5 down and $1.23 weekly and you^ get your piano. in your. house immediate- ly, without any ceremony of waiting. A payment of $7 down and weekly in-,.; stallments of $1.60 admits you to Club B and secures you your instrument without delay. The same is true with regard to Club C. the payments " being $12 and balance In' weekly installments of $2. Club D members secure their instru- ments by paying $20 down and weekly In- stallments of $2.30. T^ese terms secure you i such famous makes as the" Klmball,* Lester, Decker, Pease, the Bush & Gerts, Schumann. Vic- tor, Milton and many others, all of them first-class and having the guarantee of the manufacturer and also ourselves. Pianos that are priced at $225 go to club members for only $137; $275 pianos for $173; pianos that sell regularly for $300 for $1S7. The finest medium grade instru- ments, that cannot possibly be sold un-- der any other conditions for less than $350, to club members go for $213. Highest grade fancy, hand-carved styles go for $327 ana $352. . . NOW IS YOUR TIME. The clubs are filling rapidly and a num- ber of makes are thinning out in spite of the very extensive preparation we made. for this sale. The sooner you join the larger variety you. have to choose from. Come in and investigate and satisfy your- self about this.
