OF interest to Tea Drinkers.

AanSdS lily JOufHdl.
Some OF us do not drink tea, but a great
many others of us do. Those who do are
aware that much of the tea imported to
this country is impure. and they will be
glad to know that the efforts of the pres
cnt national administration to cure this evil
are producing good results. 1t is estimated
that from 100000 TO eco pounds of teas
have been rejected by, the examiners at
New York, Chicago San Francisco and
Tacoma as below the standard fixed as adj
missible. The heavy falling OH in the volume
Of mportations-nearly 12000,C00 poundS-ln-
dicates that the law has been even more
effective in stopping the shipment of infer
Tor tea from foreign ports than in prevent
ing the landing of the stuff at our own.
Consul AbercTombie, at NagaSaki, Japan,
reports to the State Department that the
Formosan teas have been much freer from
dust and broken leaf than usual. This Is
said to have been especially noticeable dur
ing the early part of the season and after
the wire sieve received from America was
distributed around TO the several Chinese
native firms for use in sitting Formosa tea.
IT is estimated that 80 per cent. of the
Formosa crop comes to this country, the
remainder going TO Great Britain and the
straits settlements. The estimated value of
the tea shipped during the present season
may be placed al IS. 400 coo.

BLOOMINGTON, Ind, Jan. 16.-The trial
of the nine men indicted for white tapping
Milton Southers and his family is set for
tomorrow. There is great interest in the
case, intensified by the report, well founded,
that all the prosecuting witnesses, including
Milton Southers, the man whipped, has dis
appeared and cannot be found. Officers were
searching the neighborhood all day vester-
day looking for those who were TO appear
as witnesses and found the houses vacant
where the Southers had lived. 1t is alleged
that the men indicted had Southers leave
to put stop to the trial, and it is quite
probable that they will succeed, as there
will be no other course than to continue or
dismiss the cases. Over 100 witnesses have
been summoned for the trial tomorrow, and
it promised to be one of the most sensa-
tional in the history of southern Indiana.
special venire of twenty-five men for
Jurymen had been issued. Judge Martin,
who is to try the case, has been notified OF
