Local Notes

A. L. Arpin was down from Bruce
aud kennon Saturday and spent the
Sabbath with his mother and brothers
and returned to his labors the first of
the week. While here he stated that
the Arpin Lumber Company had put
in about two thirds of their cOntemp-
lated cut this winter. They ezoect to
keep one camp going all summer and
do summer logging. Arsin has been
home but little during the last four
years and he expressed surprise at the
increase Of population and the many
new faces seen on our streets. He said
that few years ago he knew nearly
every family in the city. while now he
hardly knew one-half of the people.
This fact is true with many of US who
have been living here right along and
we note the same changes.

Like Kelly w.s-M.sey.

Christmas comes but once a
year, and to most of US all it
brought good cheer-especially
some. To one man at least the
happiness Of anticipation probably
eclipsed the happiness OF fruition,
for the reason that 10 the climax OF
his happiness he was probably the
most surprised and astonished
man in town.
This particular man is well
known in that republican strong
hold known as the brick yard pre-
cinct. For weeks he has been
making preparations to surprise
his wife with Christmas gift that
would be entirely new, novel and
original, realizing that it is the
unlocked for and unexpected in
the gift line that gives the most
pleasure. During his spare mo-
ments he has been out along the
by-ways and hedges snaring rab-
bits in their lairs. who were duly
executed and their hides skinned
and tanned. The hides were made
into an elegant robe, neatly pack
ed in a box, labeled and made
ready for presentation at the
breakfast table Christmas morning.
Unfortunately for the man with
q penchant for originality he ac-
quainted some Of his boarding
house friends with his intentions.
and they Immediately entered into
. deep laid plot to turn the tables
on him. They secured the precious
box, extracted the robe and sub
stituted therefor three live rabbits.
Christmas morning dawned
bright aud clear, the precious box
was brought forth by the husband,
united, unwrapped. the lid raised.
and then-a wild scramble Of ter
ri6ed rabbits to get out Of harms

DIETRICH CLAIMS THE CREDIT
says Hastings Public Building Bill
which Passed Both Houses
was His Measure.

HASTINGS. Neb., July 12.-(special.)-
A false rumor has been going the rounds
In regard to whom the credit is due for
the securing OF q public building for Hast
ings.
Many Of the leading fuslonists in this
vicinity have been claiming that II was
the Shallenberger bill which passed the
house and senate, and thus captured the
building for Hastings. The fusionists
have felt so sure Of 1t that they began
to use 1t for political thunder.
Upon the return home of senator Diet
rich his week he was interviewed in regard
to the matter and he said:
The Hastings public building bill, which
and It went through without a scratch.
with the exception of being cut down from
$50, 600 to .125,oOo; and while his was being
1t down to 800, 900, but l objected so seri-
ously hat 1t was finally decided TO make it
When Senator Fairbanks, chairman Of
public grounds and buildings. committee in
the senate, was here In Hastings 1 secured
a promise from him for an appropriation
for a government building. 1 introduced
the bill in the senate and II was passed,
and then went to the house committee of
public grounds and buildings, of which
Dave Mercer is chairman.
The house committee prepared what is
known as an omnibus bill, which contained
the appropriations for all public buildings
in the United States.
Senator Millard's bill for Norfolk having
also passed the senate, that also was in
cluded in the omnibus bill. The bill in
troduced by Congressman S~hallenberger
was referred to the committee in the house
and never was reported nor acted upon.
1t would be preposterous that the senate
committee would turn down the bills in
troduced by two republican senators and
substitute for them bills which had been
introduced by a fusionlst when they both
asked for the same thing.
The agreements on appropriations for Ne
braska were entered into by Mercer, Bur-
kett, Senator Willard and myself, and the
fusion members were never considered nor
consulted.

health and is quite enthusiastic and with

FOOD COMMISSION ON VINEGAR

poses a. Cider variety.

LINCOLN, July 12.-(speeial 1.-THE fol-
lowing statement to Nebraska consumers
Of vinegar has been issued by the Ne
braska Food commission
Fraud in the sale of vinegar in Nebraska
consists largely in the sale of vinegar artt-
hclally colored so as to look like cider
Many merchants buy this artihcially
colored vinegar as cider vinegar at a cider
vinegar price and sell 1t to their customers
as cider vinegar.
The laws OF the state forbid the sale of
any vinegar artif1cially colored and any
person selling or having in possession. with
Intent to sell such vinegar, is liable to a
fine of from $50 to 500 and costs OF prosecu-
ton.
The consumption of vinegar is SO great
that II is not possible TO supply the de-
sary that other kinds be used. There seems
t tie be a RrejTtdbi s u on t5e part ,e od many nnr9,p Peoj
Such is not the case and in order that con-
sumers may properly understand this mat
ter the following statement Is published for
the benefit of the people OF the state. As
authority for this statement In regard to
vinegar and its. essential part, acetic acid,

fessor of domestic science, State university,

mentation Of alcoholic liquids. The essen.
tial part OF any vinegar Is the acetic acid
which II contains. The acetic acid comes
from the fermentation OF the alcohol. Alec.
hol is the same whether 1t comes from
corn or apples, grain or fruit, and wher
subjected to the same kind of fermentation
I. will change into the same acetic acid
Therefore the acetic acid of distilled vine.
gar is the same as the acetic acid OF cider
vinegar or malt vinegar and for all prac-
tical and domestic purposes distilled vine.
gar is just as good as cider or malt vine
gar.
Distilled or white wine vinegar is OBJ
tanned by dlstilling Off the alcohol from
the fermented wort from grains such a.
corn and rye. This kin Of vinegar is color
less and contains no substances injurious
to health.
Cider vinegar is derived from the Juice o.
apples by allowing the sugar and starch o.
the apple to change into alcohol and sub
jecting II to acetic fermentation. Cidel
vinegar has a color varying from pale vel
low to a deep red.
Malt vinegar is made from the acetic fer
mentation of the wort from barley. corn Of
rye. It differs from distilled vinegar II
that the alcohol is not distilled of befor,
II is changed into acetic acid.
This vinegar has a color varying from re,
to brown and a peculiar malt-like odor.
