And THEIR DANGERS
Or. Robin Discusses Subject Before
the Philadelphia College OF
Pharmacy

DIR. Albert Robin, hacteriologist and
of the Delaware State Board
of Health, strongly deprecated the 'pat-
ent medicine habit yesterday in paper,
under the title of "Adultcration of Foods
and Drugs" read before the Philadelphia
College of Pharmacy. After presenting
some information TO show how wide the
practice of adultcration had become he
said that it els nothing less than an
abomnabc fraud. which ought 20 put to
shame any self-respecting man practicine
IT,"
Taking up the subject of patent medi-
cinos. he declared that they demoralize
the people boy engcndering constant dread
of disoase so-called pathophobin, that
they are responsible for the perniciou'
system of self-medication for imaginary
or real evils, and that they frequently
ruin health and ieopardize life.
DR. Robin then recited how @ vaunte
remedy. sold at 81 box, was compose
of granuated sugar; how certain opium
cures contain morphia, and tonics, es
pecially recommended for inebriates, ar
| largely made mp of alcohol

POTATOES FROM EUROPE
Big Consignment Of Murphies for The
American Stomach

With the largest consignment of
potatoes to arrive here since the inn
portations began several months ago
from European countries because OF
the scarity this season in this country,
the Cosmopolitan liner Hanseat which
left Lelth. Scotland February !, Is
soon expected to arrive in the Della
ware. She has stored away in her hold
at least 1000 tons Of tubers, which are
being anxiOusly awaited by the consig-
nees. the demand for potatoes being
unusually great at this time. BY rea-
son Of the small supply In the States.
and duty on the potatoes imported,
consumers have TO pay considerably
more for them than they did last year.
About twenty years ago Americans
imported potatoes in larger quantities
than they are doing now. Since that
time. however. the American farmer
has devoted great deal Of attention
to tho raising Of potatoes and II is
stated many of them have made for
tunes by dealing In them. This year
when the scarcity was reported in the
country. due to a failure of crops last
fan. dealers resorted TO importation.
The potatoes so far received have been
of a good quality.

WATER BOARD MRElS
Discussed Proposed Purchase Of Land for
Reservoir

The Water Department held a very
short session yesterday. The Pusey and
Jones Company made application for
additional fire protection by placing
another fire plug in the yards of the
company. The application was refer
red to Chief Engineer Bond. The week
ly payroll Of $554.74 was ordered paid,
and the balance in bank was reported
lat S110, ,12403.
The board informally discussed
the decision of the courts al
towing the board to purchase land for
reservoir purposes.
The report of the pumping stations
demonstrates the necessity, according
to the board, for a new reservoir, for
each day during the past week there
was pumped into the Rodney street res
lervdir 100000 gallons Of water, and
/ the capacity of the reservoir is only
labout 500 900, therefore the drain or
this one station is over 100000 gallons
of water more than can be stored there

10 The Buds

Should the present cold weather con-
tinue for a few weeks, the down state
correspondents who about
this time of the year get in their fine
work reporting the destruction of peach
crops, will receive their death-blOw
The present weather is highly benef-
cial to peaches, and already growers
are predicting a big yield.
United States Marshal John Cannon
Short in conversation with a reporter
for the Evening Journal this mOrnig,
said he anticipates a big yield uhe com
ing season, unless the weather sudden

freezing spells during April or May.
The continued cold weather has kept
the buds back, and ais sap in the trees
is yet low. they have not begun to

During past seasons when the crops
were killed. in some instances the trees
were in blossom during the latter part

come warmer Immediately and remain
so. the trees would not be i'm blossom

Colonel F. J. Turner Passed
Away in London Hotel
LEH MOST DARING RAIDS OF WlR
By Blowing Up Bridges lie Delayed
The British Army Over Two
Months

Philadelphia. Feb. 19.-George May
Powell, Of this city, yesterday received
a cablegram announcing the death at
Charing Cross Hotel, London, Of Colo
mel Francis J. Turner, a noted Boer
scout and a native Of Brooklyn. For
the first eighteen months Of the South
African war Turner was a leading
scout of the Boer army. He was a civil,
mining and mechanical engineer, and
had large interests in South Africa.
John o. knight, of Chicago, went as
his only assistant in the daring feat
of blowing up the railway bridges be-
tween the British front and the Boer
rear when the British captured Bloem-
fontein This halted the British over
two months and gave the Beers a
chance to reform lines and plans.
Turner also led some of the most dar-
ing raids of the war and was severely
wounded in the battle Of Colenso. His
sickness, from severe exertion and ex-
posure in the field, caused his being
sent, via Australia and America, tC
Holland to both recruit in health anC
do important work for the Boel
cause.
At the time of his death he was pre-
pairing to re-enter the South African
field.

and 4 o'clock. Mr. Mazurie concluded
to go sleighing. and invited his wife TO

Jingle of the sleigh bells. All went as
