OLEOMA INVESTIGATION
Prof Babcock Thinks II Healthiul and n
Good Article OF Trade.

WASH1NGTON, June lG.-prof. Babcock
of the Boston board of health and a
chemist was the first gentleman to ad-
dress the senate committee on agriculture
and forestry and on the subject Of oleo-
margerine this moruiu-. 1t was his duty,
he said, TO see that the law of Massa-
chusetts requiring that oleomargarine
should he sold under its proper name was
enforced. In the great majority OF cases
the law was obeyed In one year he had
made 337 inspections and found 10 per
cent of the OleOmargarlue sold properly,
and had issued warrants for arrest in the
other cases. There were thousands of
persons III Boston who buy butterne
knowing perfectly well what it was But
terine sold for butterine and the price paid
was the price of butterne. The same
statement is applied to oleomargarine.
Many dealers in Boston took more than
the precautions prescribed by law to in
form their customers what they were
buying.
He believed oleOmargarne was health
full and should be sold under its true
name. Such law could be enforced.
He thought it unfair to compel manu-
facturers to color oleo red, or blue,
or leave it uncolored, because people
would be prejudiCed against it. The SUB
sttute for any food article must look like
the article it takes the place of. Oleo
sold at 15cents a pound and was wholesome,
when butter sold much higher and was
sometimes OF very poor quality.

Mrs. Emma Malloy Indicted.

The grand jury of Green county, Mo,
has returned two indictments against
Mrs, Emma Molloy, charging her with be
ing party to the bigamous marriage of
George Graham and Cora Lee and as an
accessory after the fact IN the murder of
Sarah Graham. This was a surprise to
many, as it was thought that the silence
as to Mrs. Molloy at the time of the in
dictment of Cora Lee indicated that the
grand jury had sounded the depths in the
case, but it would seem that the eXamina-
ton has been patient, prolonged and
thorough, and that the, grand jury has
become possessed of evidence not hereto
fore made public.

POOR LUCINDA BUTLER.
a Vermont widower Steals Her Afec-
tions.


James Norton was a widower when he
went to Troy last winter. His home was
in Middlebury, Vt. where he had resided
with his father man of means. He rep
resented that he was capitalist and had
money in the bank but having no dis
position to put on airs he took his meals
at a $3-a-week boarding house on Fulton
street. 1t happened that at the same
modest table Miss Lucinda Butler,
young furewomau from neigh
boring collar shop took her lunch.
The Nermonter and the Troy girl ate pie
from the same baking and natural bond
of sympathy grew into an acquaintance.
The acquaintance ripeued, and love, ir-
riGated by tales of Middlebury securities,
bloomed in the spring. The Nermonter's
greenn ess allayed any suspicion of former
affection. and a wedding came in due
time. Miss Butler gave herself away
and Norton was the only and best man
present save the minister. The mar
rage was perpetrated at South Newfane,
little town in Vermont, on May 20.
The event was unheralded by cards
and unexpected by certain people in Mid
dlebury, among them young girl, do
mestic in the house of Norton's father.
The expenses of the wedding trip from
Troy TO NeWfane left young NOrton's cash
pocket almost deserted, and as he had neg
lected to pack one of his portable houses
in Miss Buffers trunk, there was but way
for it and home to his father James took
his second wife The surprise of the
parents was not unmixed with pleasure
when 1t was found that their son
blushng bride was real Troy collar
girl, and she was taken into the
bosom of the family. She had dis
! covered that James had had another
wife "5ut to marry widower is awfully
interesting" and her honeymoon fairly
gushed. But something appeared to be
the matter with James his appetite
wasn't good, even pie had lost its attract
ions The trouble was soon explained
The girl who had worked for Norton's
father sWore out a warrant and James
was taken into custody ON a delicate
charge He WAS released from Jail the
next day and gwen an opportunity to Sc
cure bail. He took leg bail and Lucinda
wishes she hadn't struck

Joseph Mace, who disappeared mysteri-
ously at White River Junction at mid
night of the Sd, was heard from Saturday
through letter to Mrs. Mace, which he
wrote from Indiana and directed to Le-
banon, n. H., where he used to live. He
wrote that he was bound for Kansas city,
where he expected to get job. His SON
in law has gone to bring him back, Mace
has been successful in business. During the
fall and winter he built big steam grist
mill at White River junction, and the
care of it has perhaps been too great a
strain upon his mind.

troll thereof, for some time, and this

nections of that road have been greatly
improved, and this the last investment
can but result beneficialy to the interest
of the entire line The annual report OF

which all fixed interest charges amount
ing to over S2ll 900 have been paid.

that the ports. instead Of being block

sufficient number of armed revenue
vessels sent out on the seas to pre-
vent smuggling. lie pointed out
the fact that by the act Of blockade We
recognized the rebel States as On TO-

thenceforth be compelled to conduct
the war, not as if we were suppress
