The Oregon state food commissioner,
has been having Il great deal Of trouble
with the milkmen at Portland recently
on account of watering milk. He has
now discovered Il new method of making
butter. Rennet Is used, and the butter
maker is enabled to get 371a per cent Of
butter, while by the ordinary method
but 10 per cent. can be obtained. The
reunett being very strong substance.
The butter made with it is of good
quality, but under the state law cannot
be retailed unless it is labeled in the
same manner as oleomargarine. State
chemist Shaw, in letter to Mr.. Baker,
says that there is q man at Eugene sell
ing the rights for emulsifying cream on
the Australian method, Mr.. Shaw says
that the plan is to mix 80 pounds OF
butter with 80 pounds of milk, and then
add the rennett, and 100 pounds of good
butter is the result.

The important questions as to the liza
bility of debtor whoi contracts for one
thing and receives something else has
b en- decided in a London court 4 Mr..
Llmpson, it seems besought an artist in
repute and high standing to paint d por
trait of Mr.. Laml'son's wife end
daughter. The artist went to work and
in due season presented canvass show
ing his idea of how the wife and
daughter looked. Herewith he turned
in also bill for 5000. Nj. Lanlpson
upon critical review of the picture
condemned it as satisfactory and EN-
platica'ly refused to Iiqui,iate. L vas
not good portrait he claimed. The ar
fist maintained that it Was 4 work of art,
and Mr.. Lampson intimated that what
he wanted was not a work of art but =
portrait OF Il family group. The case
was taken into court, where one critic
said that the portrait was an accurate
likeness and Two other critics said it was
not. Mr.. Lampson, moreover, who is
presumably something of judge as to
his fanlily's personal appearance, de-
ciared his views. The court, however
has returned a verdict compelling him to
pay the s. 600 Mr. Lampson does not
know whether to take this as proof
that the portrait is really a likeness or
as punishment for employing an artist
from the Royal academy. The case,
however, opens up an interesting snecu-
lation as to who is the best Judge of like
ness. The defendant in this case want
ed not the artists idea of how his wife
and daughter looked, but his own idea
of it. To one of them the originals OF
the portrait looked thus; to the other
they looked so. Both observers may
have been sincere, and, in way, both
right. In the circumstances the very
best thing Mr.. Lampson can do is to buy

The Chicago creditors who are selling

much advertising. The throwing of
such stock of goods on the market was
enough to attract wide attention, and
they consequently declined otficious
offers of service by some alleged adver.

young man who claimed to represent
the Council Bluffs department of an
Omaha paper. His extravagant offers
were firmly but courteously de-
c!ined. but the refusal to give him ad-
vertising made him angry, and his anger
led him into the blunder of attacking
the character OF the sale. Too many
people have carried away bargains, and

Was "a Lively Election.

All day long the casting Of votos in the
various wards went merrly on, and when
the polls closed at q in the evening the num-
Der of votes cast fell only little short of
that Of last Monday. 1t was generally ex-
pected that much larger vote would be
polled than is usually the case in school elec-
tions, but the result exceeded the most
sanguine expectations. IL was almost i'm
possible to guess what the result would be
with any degree of certainty, even after the
plications that had arisen ia the contest. A
great deal of scratching of ballots was done
and the only thing that was certain was that
the proposition TO issue bonds in the sum Of

ner of Madison street and Graham avenue
was carried by q large majority.

Conscience" by Hector Malot Is much
more than mere novel; 1t is literary gem
of the first water. 1t has we'll conceived
plot and the characters are delineated with
fidelity TO nature that makes the story ire
sistiple. The hero, an ambitious young doc
tor, finding himself very much embarrassed
in q financial way and having pleaded In
vain for a loan from an old money lender the
idea suddenly occurs to HIM that he could
easily obtain what he Is so much In need of
py getting away with the aged usurer and
helping himself to the cid mans cash. The
doctor dees not believe in conscience nor has
he any religious scruples. tie therefore
speedily determines upon q plan of Killing
the money lender and loses no time in carry
ing it out The man whom he murders leads
very solitary life and has but few visitors
at night SO that the doctor argues to himself
that as he is skilled physician he ought not
TO have much trouble in destroying the Old
usurer with raplaity and in such a manner
that his victim will be dead before he can
obtain help. Everything favors the muir
derer, and he gets possession OF the money
he risked SO much for, but he finds that
through one fatal blunder on his part another
pair of eyes besides his own and the old
mans witnessed his performance OF the
CHASTITY deed After regarding the situation
from every point OF view he decides that he
must also slay this witness before ne can feel
himself secure. He does so and then, horror
of horrors, by a chain Of remarkable but per-
fectly natural circumstances the guilt Of the
first crime is fixed upon The brother of his
sweetheart, who, after trial, Is sentenced TO
twenty years peual seryitude. The doctor,
however, marries the sister. ana then the

The democrats who had counted on having

been able to swallow their chaerin at being
defeated by an accident in the Fifth ward,
and have brought suit against Peter Smith
to prevent him from exercising the duties Of
the office to which he was elected according
TO the judges of election. He took the oath
of office yesterday and filed his bond, which
was the signal for action on the part of
his polite al enemies, who have been waiting
for him. He was at once served with notice
that petition was on file in the district
court and that 1t would come up for hear
ing May 2. The petition alleges in substan
that the count was fraudulently made with
intent to defrauu s. Lobhart, the democratic
candidate, out of Office. Among other things
it is alleged that ten ballots were put into tn
box bearing the name of Tibbetts, the sec

of offices in the city If you will step in

the Cattlemen's bank yesterday as he led
the way into DR.. Barstow's office ad-
joining the bank. The suite comprises
the rear rooms of the bank building on
the first floor. The building is one of
the many fine pressed BRICK structures
that have gone up in the last year, and
is very pleasant and attractive both out
side and in, but the offices have just re-
ceved n weeks attention from J. B. Long
and his corps of decorators The result
justifies the almost extravagant assertion
of Mr.. Kerney, for the naturally fine
rooms have been given a decoration that
makes them artistically perfect Mr.
Long, in his designs, has shown an
originality that is pleasing, and saw
that they were executed with faultless
skill. The decorating materials used
are ingram papers, II new process OF
plastic work and carved mouldings.
Perfect harmony prevails in each of the
apartmen is in coloring and designs, and
going from one room to another has
something of the effect upon refined
visitor as visit to an art gallery. 1.-The
work stamps Mr.. Long as an original
decorator" remarked a gentleman who
was admiring the work, land is the
strongest proof that the people of Coun-
ell Bluffs hereafter who want fine work
