sIMoNs'S soRANGE CIDER"
A Rare Mixture That Caused a Mar
ket Man Much Trouble.


In going through the market yesterday
Health officer Sanborn discovered that
Thomas Lincoln Simons, 1913 Talbot avenue,
was disposing of so-ealled ''orange cider
at a penny a glass which was strongly
tinctured with carbolic acid. The man was
arrested and lodged in jail for selling adul-
terated drinks. r.,lss II

asked Mr.. Sanborn. ~"

'eWhat else is it made OFF,

coloring natter
What do you put carbolic acid in it for?'
ITO disinfect it."

Eyes"
Mr. Sanborn asked to see the bottles con-
tanning the materials from which it was
made. Some Of them were turned over to
him and are now locked up in the Board Of
Health office.
II broke the bottle in which the carbolic
acid was contained and threw the pieces in
the gutter" said Simons.
Insisting on seeing the broken pieces Of
glass Mr.. Sanborn was convinced they had
been part Of a tumbler, instead of bottle.
Just then "Jere'' Collins, an attache of the
board, came along. He saw some peculiar
by-play between Simons and a boy. The
latter was showing something into the waist
of his trousers. Going. behind him Collins
secured his arms and reaching around IN
front laid hold of a large bottle which con-
tanned carboic acid. Simons had had the
bottle rolled up in his coat after Mr.. san
pie of the stuff to the city laboratory for
analysis. Collins appeared on the scene to
inform Sanborn the man must be arrested.
John Hanson had drunk glass of the cider
and complained of violent pains in his stom-
ach.
A superficial examination of similar stun
sold by other marketers indicated that it
was at least free from carboic acid. City
Sanitarian Clark, however, says 1T is about
as harmful q liquid as any man could put
into his stomach. rTs4 asse -.s1f
