GRANTED A NEW TRIAL

A. j. Whiteman, Convicted Of Forgery,
Appeals to California Supreme Court.
SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 22.-The su-
preme court has ordered new trial for
Alonzo ]. Whiteman, who was con.
yicted of forgery and sentenced to nine
ears imprisonment. Whiteman was
formerly a very wealthy man and
stood high socially and politically in
Minnesota and Michigan. He inherited
. large fortune and engaged in business
at Duluth. MINI. He was elected
mayor Of that town and also served a
term as state senator in the Minnesota
legislature. Whiteman met with bust.
ness reverses and came West to San
Francisco about two years ago. While
here he cashed at the Bank of Cali.
fornia check drawn by Arthur Bixon
for $500. The bank people later de.
clared that the check was a forgery and
that Bixon was q myth. Whiteman was
arrested in New York and was brought
here for trial. He declared that the
check was genuine and had been pre-.
sented by him in good faith. He could
not find his friend Bixon, however, and
he was convicted Of forgery and was
sentenced to imprisonment. He ap-
pealed to the supreme court for new
trial and pending the decision of that
body has been confined in the county
Jail here. The supreme court decides
that the lower court erred in admitting
foreign evidence to the matter at issue
and new trial is granted. Whiteman
says he will now be able to prove his

The November Breezes.

The last poem written by Edward II. Ell
we'll and first published in the Portland
Press Of Nov. Goth
legend there is of the Queen of the North,
Enthroned in her palace of snow,
W no relgns universal DER Natures domain,
" hen the wild blasts of Boreas blow
The bite crests of foam crown the billowy
waves,
Where rough gales, in angry excess,
Rush on with loud thunders to torture the
seas,
And drive the brave ships to distress.
How sing they the death-song Of blossom
and leaf,
With the mournful farewell of the bird
Bewailing the glory departed from earth,
BY the spring time and summer conferred
Yet all is not lost, though the breezes NAV
sigh
Through the landscape so saddened and sere,
For the quenchless vitality hidden within,
Wakens hope that dies not with the year.
For energies latent, eternal and vast
AS the Infinite source whence they came
Other springs shall renew, with bird-songs
and showers,
And June's richest blossoms afiame.
So list we the tones. of the Autm unal breeze,
AS we feel on our foreheads its breath,
And learn the great secret which Nature re-
veals,
OF new life upspringing from death.

The Cats Intellect.

A Judge of the Oldham county court,
in England, has given decision on the
subject of the cats intellect. 1t will
probably be disputed by many friends of
that animal.
He decided that cat is ga quasi
domestic animal, and that its owner is not
responsible for its actions
cooper who sued signalman for
damage sustained by the defendants cat
having killed and eaten - of the plain
tiff's chickens therefore lost his case. The
Judge laid down the interesting PROPOSE
ton that cats intellect is not so extern
sive as to render it able to distinguish be-
tween chickens and small birds.' New
York journal.

Suffrage Disappointment.

The champions of woman suffrage have
suffered three serious disappointments
this month.
In two States, California and Idaho,
amendments to the Cons titutions were
submitted to the people at the election,
providing for giving the full privileges of
the ballot to women. In both States the
proposition failed of adoption. In Cal
ifornia there was a considerable majority
against the amendment. The State had
been thoroughly canvassed by the suffra-
gists, little opposition to the amendment
found expression in the p ress, political
conventions very generally commended the
the amendment. and yet when the vote
was taken, the sutfragists, as the San
Francisco Argonaut says, ''failed most
lamentabiy, most disastrously. The vot-
ers of California are overwhelmingly OPP
posed to giving the ballot to women
In Idaho the suffragists Jared better, be-
cause they secured majority of voters
for their proposition. But it appears that
the section of the Idaho Constitution relat-
ing to amendments is so framed that, if
interpretations previously are valid, an
amendment must receive a majority of all
the votes cast at an election and not mere
ly majority of all the votes cast on the
proposition. The effect of this provision
is to count voters who do not express
themselves affirmatively as against pro-
posed amendment. The matter will be
contested in the courts, but the probabil-
tiles are against the adoption of the
amendment.
The third disappointment is the refusal
of the Vermont Legislature to pass bill
giving municipal suffrage to women. This
proposition recurs as often as the Legis
lature assemblies. Sometimes it passes the
House only to be killed by the Senate !;
sometimes the Senate adopts it and the
House kills it, This is W hat happened this
year.
These incidents, grouped together, sug-
gest widespread reluctance to further
extend the privileges of woman suffrage.
In view of the attitude OF three woman
suffrage States toward the questions decid-
ed at the general election on the third of
November, this conservatism appears to
be justified. Boston journal.

Food Adulterants


AZ 'le recent session of the National
orange IN Washington, D. c.. Professor
ID. w. Wiley, chemist of the Department
OF Agriculture, delivered an addrass an
Food Adulteration, ILLUSTRATING bis 70
marks by exhibiting number of samnlos
OF 1000 products. Professor WILEY began
his remarks by stating that OWING To
selentlfle investigation and feeding it took
one third less food to fatten a pig than if
dld twenty years ago The chemists are
now investigating on the same line as re.
gulls human food Referring to food
authorizations he said it was as important
To be Wei as to be nourished He direct.
ed attention to the use of food and it's in
fluence on health.
Adulteratlons consist of abstraction. adj
dltlon and change of color The majority
OF these authorizations do not affect health
lnJunously. He did not believe that
manufacturers intended to injure health
by their use. Decomposition in food
products is caused by bacterial action.
10 preserve vegetables and fruits this
bacteria must be destroyed and prevented
from being absorbed.
The idea that the air should be kept
out was erroneous. The air does not
hurt. A piece of sterilized cotton ON the
top of jar would preserve its contents as
well as if sealed up. All that is neces-
sary is to exclude the vegetable organ
isms that tend to decay. 1t is cheaper to
use certain preventives that arrest the
growth OF these organisms. Chloroform
is good preservative, as are other arti-
al = I,os.,
cies, put their taste and odor are disagree
able therefore the desire is to secure
an article that is odorless and tasteless,
and salacylic acid furnishes the article
best suited as an adulterant.
This acid taken in repeated doses is in
Jurous to the digestive organs. 1t is
given as medicine for rheumatism and
govt, but we are not all afflicted with these
diseases. 1t preserves food and at the
same time prevents digestion. He ex-
planned how food is digested, and how
the action of this acid stopped digestion.
He believed taken even in small quanti-
