Probate Judge Hagner has under con-
sideration the question whether property
left by deceased inmates of the Soldiers
Home and unclaimed for three years es-
cheats to the home. He has not yet come
10 a conclusion, but has decided that all
unclaimed pension money left by inmates
reverts to the home. This was announced
a few days ago in a case which came be-
fore the probate judge. The Judge advo-
Gates office of the War Department took
hand In the case which was decided, ind
obtained the opinion of the court. In that
instance soldier had left q considerable
amount of pension money. and it had re-
manned unclaimed over three years The
court holds that this money reverts to the
home beyond question. There Is doubt
as TO the law about other property and
because CT this doubt Judge Hagner has
not rendered his decision In the matter
before him.
There is said to be in the banks of the
city 5000 or 5000 which belonged 10
deceased inmates of the home and which
had remained unclaimed for three years.

Into Authorizations.
Health Officer Woodward began today an
investigation of the food stuffs offered
for sale in his city for the purpose of de-
termining their purity. A polariscope has
been borrowed from the Treasury Depart
ment for the purpose of determining the
purity of sugars and articles of food adul-
terated with starch, honey, molasses AID
candies.
The first substance examined was mus
tard, and Prof. Hard, who is personally con-
Quoting the Investigations, has found a
large number of samples adulterated with
flour and starch. The regulation governing
the standard of purity Of mustard sets
forth:
Mustard shall be made exclusively from
the seeds of sinapis nigra and sinapis alba.
1t shall not contain any wheaton flour or
other foreign meals, tumeric or other color
ing matter
The health officer will institute proceed
ings against merchants selling the adul-
terations.
The investigation viii! be thorough and
any food stuff found adulterated will he
confiscated and the dealer prosecuted I'M
