famous herb in Chinese literature, says
the st. Louis Republic, as far back as
1900 years b. c., at which time its cul-
tivation and classification was almost

day. one of the ancient legends says
that its virtues were accidentally
learned by King Shen Nung She, the
Chinese monarch, who is also known as
1.-THE Divine Husbandman," whom the
record says flourished forty centuries
ago.
He was engaged boiling water over a
fire made of the branches OF the tea
plant, and carelessly allowed some of
the leaves to fall into the pot. The
LIQUID which he expected to come from
the vessel simply sterillzed water
was miraculously converted into an elk

the tea leaves. Soon after II became

Revenue Men Claim that the Proof
Is Overwhelming.

ing World' last Thursday, Internal Rev
enue Collector John A. Sullivan, on the
preceding Saturday, seized the whole
sale and retail liquor store of julius
Librowcz & Co., at AZ Vesey street. on
a charge that the firm had been illicitly
distilling whiskey. Internal Revenue
officers were placed in charge Of the
store. with orders to allow only a re
tail business to be conducted.
To-day warrants were served on Julius
Librowicz, Aaron Golanscher and
Charles Schubach. The two last named
are employees of the firm. All three
were charged with conducting a dis
tillery business without filing the bond
required by the Government.

arraigned before United States Com
missioner Shields. Their examination
was set for next Saturday morning at
10 o'clock. and bail was fixed at $4,000
for Librowicz. and 5000 each for Col
anscher and Schubach.
