pounds of salt, which it is importing from
Lisbon, Portugal This consignment came

With the exception of salt for use in
butterine, this is the first that has been
imported in large quantities by the Ar
mour's for fifteen years. James Fennen.
the company's purchasing agent, said last
night that importation became necessary
because of the raise in price which had
been made by the National Salt company.
Up to last July, he said, it was possible
to get such salt as was needed in the ex-
clusively meat packing departments for
So. so per ton Since then the price has
been raised to s6, and It is now found

first time that salt was ever imported to

With an Offense.

Lalxin, Kas., Jan. 81. w. Dorsey, Of
Jefferson county, Ohio, stepped of the
Santa F'e passenger train No. 1 at this
place last Saturday night and failed to
get back on when the train started. He
wandered around the platform in a
dazed sort of way, and caused consid-
cradle CONSERVATION among the en-
ployes of the depot by his queer actions.
At Coolidge the conductor on No. 1
wired back for him, and 1t was then
found that he had been drugged, and
the newsboy on the train had secured
his money. He lost about SIS, most of
which was secured again for him by the
conductor
After Dorsey recovered from the
effects of the drug, he took the next
train for California as he had a
through ticket to the coast.
