amou mt paid by the American people for
sacrifice OF their lives or injury to their
health. As there exists no more serious
or exhaustive drain upon the re-
sources OF the people than the
adulteration of their food and drug
products, the Federal Government should
enact law to prevent the transportation
OF misbranded, poisonous or deleterious
food and drug products from one
State or territory into another, not
interfering with the police powers
OF the State. This being done
various State laws would become ef-
fective and by systematic effort on the
part OF the officials or honest dealers and
manufacturers adulterations would be re-
duced to a minimum and millions OF dol
lars saved annually to the country.
"The cost OF the execution OF such law
would be moderate and should be borne
by the manufacturers of food and drug
products. The report embodies a large
number of comments on the subject
by officials and others directly
interested. Nearly all the State
officials and representative tradesmen
will give their views in urging the pass
age of national food and drug law for
the protection OF legitimate industry and
our Interstate and foreign commerce as
we'll as the public"

fined, tostheir former reservation in
Arizona. In an interview on the
subject, he said: 81 am fully aware that
q very determined effort is being made by
the Indian rights people, strongly backed
by high United States army influence, to
return that blood thirsty old murderer
Geronimo and his band of Chiricshua
Apache assassins to the White Mountain
reservation in Arizona. Strenuous
efforts to this end were made
during the latter part OF President
Clevelsnd's first administration and re-
newed during the term of President Hsr-
rison, but they were barren of results.
sin behalf Of the people OF Arizona, i
have felt IL my duty to earnestly protest
against their return. 1t was during
my administration as Governor of
the territory when they were
removed to Fort Pickens, Fla, by direc-
tion OF President Cleveland. This band
OF Chiricahua Apache Indians are, without
doubt, the most cruel savages ever born
on this continent.
president Cleveland is thoroughly ia
miliar with the whole question. He took
an exceedingly deep official as well as per-
sonal interest in 1t at the time during his
first administration, and do not believe
he will suffer these assassins to be returned
to any reservation in Arizona"

WOMANS WORK.
How Mrs. Stanford Has Strengthened
Out Her Husbands Affairs.

SAN FRANCIsCO, Sept. 10.-The Ex-
aminer says: Mrs. Stanford has paid off
the last of the debts due from the Stan
ford estate and has thus early gotten its
great properties In almost perfect order.
She is now anxious for distribution of
the estate so that she may secure personal
control OF the millions OF which she Is
now executrix. As soon as the distribu-
tion is ordered, she will begin operations
in a new field. Then, under her personal
supervision the erection of nearly half a
million dollars worth OF new buildings
and the early extension of the university to
three times its present magnitude will he
begun. 1t is stated that the debit of the
ledger has been ably attended to, and the
hypothecated securities have been re-
leased.
The three great estates, the Palo Alto,
Gridley and Vina ranches, 5000, 1900
and 10000 acres respectively, on which
Senator Stanford lavished expense and
experiments, have been put on a strictly
business basis.
Mrs. Stanford has now leased all OF
these properties in parcels, with the ex-
ception of the vineyard and stock farms
and the land necessary for their mainten-
ance, and the brandy at Vina, of which
Senator Stanford never sold gallon, is
is still going to Europe and elsew here in
immense quantities.
The estate is nearly ready for distribu-
tion, except for three claims that are
pending. One is a suit for 10000, invov-
ing q horse, which is pending on appeal,
and another is suit for $1,000 brought
recently by Palo Alto bookseller, VINO
asserts he has some sort OF contract for
supplying books to the University.
The other claim is he $4,000, 900 claim
against the Stanford estate which Attor-
ney- General Olney has presented on be-
half of the Government to Mrs. Stanford
as executrix. This suit is an annoyance
To Mrs. Stanford, because as long a. it. is
unsettled il will prevent her from spend
ing dollar of the estate in behalf OF the
University.
This claim, the executrix has repudi-
ated. The estate will be tied up as long
as the claim is pending. The Stanford
attorneys are doing what they can to ex-
pedite a settlement. They are urging the
attorney general to push his suit and have
said that they will waive all objections
based in tochnicalities which might
otherwise delay the trial.
Mrs. Stanford has been arranging TO
begin large operations al Palo Alto next
spring. The present quadrangle and the
few brick buildings in its rear are but a
nucleus for the buildings planned by the
late Senator Stanford and his plans are
to he carried out without change.

HAD LOTS OF FUN
Baby Roger Gets Away and Tries to
Elope With Rachel.

Baby Roger went on an awful tear
Saturday night
He had more fun than goat.
No one would think to look at the quiet
youAg rascal today that he ever contemp-
lated anything more hilarious than eating
the peanuts the good little boys and girls
take out to him daily, and that's where
he fools you.
Saturday night he bade Mr.. Hathaway
an affectionate good night and when the
flap in the tent closed behind the genial
superintendent Baby Roger gave a war
dance for joy.
He was tired of staying In that stuffy
little tent, and ii was too warm to be
cooped up when there was that great big
park waiting for him.
So he began TO work away at the strap
which fastened his foreieg to the chain
that confines him, and the funny little
finger on the end OF his trunk worked
away at the buckle until he finally worked
IL loose.
He capered around on his hind legs and
threw his trunk round like a baggage
master.
Finally IL occurred to him that he was
loosing lots of fun by having no one to
share his gambols, and rip went the side
wall OF the tent. He split it clear to the
centre pole.
A little trumpet OF pleasure sounded on
the night air and then Roger made up his
mind that Rachel must also be free, SO
rip went another bit of canvas, but Rachel,
like the good little girl she is, refused to
play hockey and the air was filled with
flying heels for few minutes. He asked
her 10 elope, but Rachel got her back up
and refused. They argued the matter and
Roger came out second best with a rather
battered up trunk.
So he walked down to where the lake
ought to be and expressed his disgust at
the dilatoriness of the city fathers in not
pushing the work there.
"It's a shame" said Roger. "All this
summer this has been only nasty muck
hole, where there should have been
pretty lake. The city has lost more
money than | cost twice over by not let
ting its boats and now can't even take
BATH" but, and his roguish face lightened
up, ~ can give the rabbits one"
HeIflled that long trunk of his, chased
it up over the bank ing to the rabbit war
rem and moment later he blew a stream
over the affrig bunnies that would
have been credit to the veteran Rough
and Ready or the old Hay Cart. Squeals
of fear, loud trump of Joy and a tattoo by
Racheis hoofs started up a concert that
aroused the animals In the menagerie. A
moment later the night watchman,
George Anderson, came on the scene.
Baby Roger saw him, winked his other
eye and said "See me fool George"
Away went Baby Roger and after him
went George. Down the hill, across the
pond basin and up the other side, then
flank movement and back again. Finally
Mr.. Anderson saw that he must have re-
Inducements and he awoke Superintend-
ent Hathaway. The two men started for
Baby Roger, and Mr.. Hathaway held out
a lump of sugar 10 the children's pet and
a moment later he was again in captivity.
Baby Roger, like others who shall be
nameless, was caught by sugar.
