ADULTERATION A SCIENCE.
Detective Work of the English Cow
ernment Laboratory During the Past


Detective Work of the English Cow
ernment Laboratory During the Past
Year.
The principal chemist of the gov
ernment laboratory has presented his
report on the work of that depart
ment for the past year. OF the sam
plies of tea submitted 252, represent
ing 1869 packages, were refused ad-
mission for home consumption on the
ground that they contained exhaust
ed leaves, were unsound or were
mixed with sand or other substances
within the meaning of the act, says
the Leeds Mercury.
The 3,82S samples of finished beer
taken from 1856 publicans were ana
lyZed, and sos or 1876 per cent. OF
the samples were found to have been
tampered with, either by having been
diluted or by the illegal addition of
sugar. The present year shows an
increase of LAP samples, but the re-
suit of the analyses, generally, af-
fords no evidence of any falling off
in the practice of diluting beer.
The quantity of tobacco cleared for
home consumption and the average
dLiouiib BOl hOhu NSlO OF
116,999 pounds and pounds in 1899;
S0,955,037 pounds and l pound 1874
ounces in 1900, and 83,561, 0S3 pounds
and 2 pounds "a ounce in 1901. Fig
ures of exported cigars and cigar
cites are remarkable as showing how
increasingly popular is the practice
of smoking cigarettes, and they also
show that the consumption of British
made cigars is increasing abroad.
Eleven adulterated samples of to-
bacco were found to contain licorice
or glycerine.
Legal TGoceedings were taken in
35 cases In respect of samples ana
lyzed for the protection of the rev.
enue. The penalties imposed
amounted to 93,766, in addition to
which tobacco 10 the value of G277
was forfeited rs containing an illegal
ingredient or an excessive percentage
of oil or water; 142 of the cases were
disposed of in court, and in 139 re-
sulting In penalties amounting to
e1,6S9, the analysts attending to
give evidence. The other cases were
settled by the board of inland rev.
enue for compromise fines amount
ing to G2,077, the defendants in Is
cases preferring to pay the full pen
atty.
For diluting or adulterating beer
100 persons paid penalties amounting
to G2,574.
The considerable increase in the
number of samples examined for the
home office was largely due to the
work in progress in connection with
the use of lead compounds in the
manufacture of pottery. The total
samples examined under this head
numbered 1876, of which 81 samples
were fruits submitted by various
firms under home office regulat tions
for the determine tion of the proper
tion of readily soluble lead.

A Little Knowledge. Etc.

The possession of a little legal law
is like the possession of a revolver;
its timely use may be great protec-
tion to man, while its abuse, on the
other hand, may get him into the
most serious kind of trouble. But,
if he applies discreetly, and careful
ly, his knowledge of the law, he will
not only be relieved of the necessity
of employing lawyer, in many in
stances where one would otherwise
be needed, but he will be able to
greatly facilitate the work of the
lawyer when he is called ir.-Gen. B.

FORTY VESSELS.
The Navy Department VIII Ask Com
gress to Provide for Their Construc-

Washington, Nov. 2.-Over and
above the four warships for which
congress directed him last session to
prepare plans as a basis for appro-
priation at the next session, Secre-
tary Long has before him the recon-
mendations of the board of naval con-
struction, looking to authorization by
congress of the building of 40 more
naval vessels of all classes, from bat
tleships down to tug boats. The
plans for the two armored cruisers
and two battleships, projected by
congress last session. already have
been prepared and look to the con-
structon of about 10000 ton battle
ships and 14.0O0 ton cruisers. The
battleships and cruisers additional to
these which the construction board
proposes probably will he of about
the same size and general type. The
boards complete plan is:
Three seagoing battleships of about
10000 tons displacement. Two ar
mored cruisers of about 14,j00 tons
displacement. Six gunboats of
about 200 tons. Two GOLFERS of about
Is, 900 tons. One repair ship of about
1900 tons. Six training ships of about
1000 tons. Four picket boats of
about ESQ tons. Four tngboats.
While the above appears to be a start
ling amount of naval construction to
recommend to congress, it is stated
that it is after all nearly a repetition
of the program submitted to that
body through Secretary Long by the
construction board last year, and is
even smaller than the aggregate ton
age proposed to be authorized by the
general mr. Dewey board

President Roosevelt was at one
time, in fact for many years, the
chairman of the Civil Service Re-
form commission. and when occu-
plying that lofty position he used
very frequently to give expression
to the most sublime and patri-
otto ideas deprecating the appoint
ment OF political partisans to fed
eral offices throughout the country.
But the strenuous rough rider is
now in position to exemplify the
teachings Of his younger aud better
days; but does the reader think
for a moment that he is doing any
thing to purify the civil service.
Not bit of IL. The same old
grafters aud political hacks who
regard public Office as private
snap are still retained, and their
like are being appointed as fast as
vacancies occur. Great is "Snivel
Service Reform" and great is our
strenuous president.
