Haney Outlines His Defense.

Attorney w. w. Baylor, represent
ing the defendant, yesterday filed a
demurrer to the plaintiffs bill in the
equity suit of e. l.. Fuller, assigned to
the Scranton Dairy company, against
H. E. Haney.
The suit was brought to enforce the
terms of an agreement under which
the defendant and his partner sold out
their milk business to Mr.. Fuller. The
plaintiff claims that the defendant
agreed not to re-engage in the milk
business in this state for. period Of
five years, but, in violation of this con-
tract, is supplying a route on the South
Side.
The demurrer recites that the dairy
company is not entitled to enforce a
contract made between Haney and
Fuller; that the contract was with
Gardner and Haney and that no allie
cation is made that they have re-en-
gagged in the milk business, and that
IAN agreement not to engage in the
milk business, generally, in a way that
will not interfere with the milk busi-
ness in the county of Lackawanna Is
not an agreement affecting T.. L. Fuller
or the Scranton Dairy company and
gives them no standing in this court"

This and That.

Former Assistant Superintendent
Frank j. Griffith, of the Morris and
Essex division, has accepted a posi-
ton with the Compressed Air Motor
company of New York city and will
travel for that concern. Mrs. Griffith
has leased the American house at AS
bury Park and will conduct it this
season.
The Lackawanna company proposes
to erect in the near future twelve stall
engine houses at South Orange
and Morris Plains. N. j., and
at Binghamton, N. Y. A new
station is to be erected at
Succasunna, N. J., on the Chester
branch, similar in architecture to the
one recently completed at Port Dram.
A new 24-lever tower has just been
completed at Port Morris and a reser-
voir for engine supply with a capacity
of 100000 gallons has been installed
at this point, which would seem to in
dicate that the company does not pro-
pose to abandon Port Morris as a coal
and freight terminus for some time
to come. Two 2S-lever towers have
recently been erected at Mt. Morris
on the Buffalo division.

Charles II. Ketcham, the new su-
perintendent of the Morris and Essex
division of the Lackawanna is one of
the most practical as well as one of
the most thoroughly competent men
in the railroad service.
Born in Rock Island, ILL.,, in 1855,
Mr.. Ketcham entered the railroad
service in 1872 as a telegraph operator
and worked on several roads in the
west and south, including the Louis
willie and Nashville, Chicago and
Northwestern, Chicago and Alton, and
the Wabash, acquiring Il wide and
varied railroad experience which was
not overlooked by railroad managers,
for in 1893 he was made superinten-
dent of the Dunkirk, Allegheny VAL
ley and Pittsburg road, and shortly
thereafter he was called to a similar
position on the Buffalo division of the
West Shore. occupying both positions
until 1896. He remained on the Buff
falo division until it was absorbed by
the New York Central, when he was
made agent at the Franklin street
station for the West Shore in New
York city. On January last he left
the employ of the West Shore to ac-
cept the position of terminal agent for
the Lackawanna, and upon the retire
ment of Mr.. Du Puy on May 1, Mr.
Ketcham was appointed as the execu-
tive head of the Morris and Essex
division.
AS superintendent Of the Buffalo di-
vision of the West Shore he demon
strated his marked ability as a man.
ager and when he left the division
he carried with him the respect and
good will of every man in the service
of that company.
Mr.. Ketcham is a strict disciplinar-
ian, as any successful railroad man
ager must be, but he is at the same
time just.

DAIRYMEN MEET
GOVERNOR STONE

vania. over II 5000 pounds of oleo
are sold annually in Pennsylvania and
100000 in New York. There is no ex-
cuse that the law should not be en-
forced in this state. but it will not be
enforced by those now in control of the
department of agriculture. +. l.. Kim
ball, of Philadelphia, representing the
Pure Butter Protective association of
Pennsylvania, said the department has
placed no restriction on the sale Of
oleO. The pure butter people are not
satisfied with the administration of the
agricultural department and trust to
the governor to enforce the law. He
said oleo is sold in Philadelphia openly,
without any regard to the law. Five
oleo dealers in that city have been sent
to Jail the last month by the United
states court for violation of the law,
while not single dealer has been con-
Victed by the state authorities. The
attorneys for the dairy and food com
missioners have not brought a single
case in court against violators of the
law. Mr.. Kimball said Secretary Ham
llton is making no effort to collect evil
dence against vioators of the oleo
laws j. Il. Altman, of Mifiiintown, sec
retary of the State grange, spoke in
behalf of the consumer. He said the
dairymen of Pennsylvania are robbed
by the sale of butter which is mot but
ter; the consumer is also defrauded
because he is not getting the article
which he pays for. The best oleo that
is made contains ingredients that are
deleterious to the human health. The
consumers want the law enforced and
1t can be if the proper persons are APP
pointed to enforce it.

Governor Stones Opinion.

Governor Stone said the secretary Of
agriculture has nothing more than a
supervisory connection with the en-
forcement of the oleo law. The dairy
and food commissioner, under the law.
has entire supervision of it's enforce
ment. The governor said he wanted
the law enforced and Is anxious to
see a dairy and food commissioner
who will enforce it. He received a let
ter from pure butter protective asso-
Citations signed by Mr.. Faucet. writ
ten a year ago, asking for the ap-
pointmeHt of ex-Commissioner Wells.
He explained that he retained Wells
because he believed his retention
would meet with the approval Of the
parties interested in the enforcement
OF the law. Since Secretary Hamilton
has taken charge of the work of the
pure food commission he has brought
suit against one hundred and twenty
four violators of the oleo law. nine
against violators of renovated butter
laws, ten against violators of the pure
food laws and ten against violators of
the vinegar law.
The governor said he believed Major
Wells was honest when he appointed
him and he is still of this belief. He
said he had no sympathy with oleo.
he never has had and does not expect
to have. He promised to appoint a
commissioner who will enforce the
law; II he does not, he will be removed
The governor said he would instruct
the appointee to vigorously enforce the
law and to require his subordinates to
do the same.

The Figure.
II woman wishes to possess a good
figure she must submit to perfect

this alto be-desired result. If she has
only a poorly developed figure, the

But in both cases she must pay the
most careful attention to every detail
laid down for her use. And, after all,
time spent in trying 70 render oneself

To begin with. she must begin the

beloved early tea, and take cup of

in towns where such !uxuries are not
to be had, the milk must be well sweet

while still damp, should be rubbed
gently in a circular manner, and for
this purpose rough washing glove,

the skin is dry the neck and chest
should be gently and firmly rubbed in
the same manner, with a fattening
lotion. The gentle friction should con-

way AFTER the bath you should lIs
down for I'VE minutes and then gol
through durnb-bell gympastic exercises
before the corsets are put on. An ex-'
cellent plan is to hold the dumb-hellsl
on your shoulders. expand your chest
and walk slowly up and down the
room. throwing the leg forward and
pointing the toes to the ground. The
head should be held well back. This
will serve to expand the chest admir-
ably and improve the figure. 1t should
be practiced for quarter Of an hour
at time.
Singing scales should also be prac-
ticed every day. and get in the habit OF
taking long breaths and holding them
as long as you can. Your meals should
be frequent and consist Of fattening
and nourishing food. A little cod
liver oil should be taken twice day.
