MAJ GARDENER SCORED
BY GEN. LLOYD WHEATON
Says Civil Governor of Tayabas, in Famous Report,
Made Measurements

Another champion OF Gen. j. Franklin
Bell and his policy in dealing with Fill
pinos in Luzon. has come TO the fore in
Gen. Lloyd Wheaton. General ChaGce in
his annual report TO the War Depart
mont declares that he is deserving Of
any censure for General Bells orders,

oral Wheaton. in HIS annual report says:
Il authorized the policy, and fully ap-
proved Of the methods by which the in
srTrection in The provinces Of BatangaS,
LaEuna. and Tayabas was ended"
General Bell was serving under Gen
Cral Wheaton al the time and as his
senior officer. General Wheaton was al
all times conversaat with General Bells
plans. General Wheaton does not neglect
to score Major Cornelius Gardener. the
civil governor o. Tavabas province.

OF the army and insiuuations Of cruelty
on the part of the American soldiers was
seized upon at the last session OF Con
sress as basis for a Congress in

we're as bad as in any province in L-zoa.

RELIEVED OF HIS WEAPON

NEW YORK. Nov. 15-R. 5. Richard
son, broad-shouldered sfx-footer from
Kentucky. who carries a gun. is going
home today with a poorer opinion Of
New York than he had when he came
mere three days ago.
A cabman, whose friendship Mr.. Rich
Rrdson supposed he had won with a
number of drinks. and another man
whom he does not know. knocked him
down with brass huuckles and a sand
bag On West Forty-second Street. late
on Thursday night. and after taking
away his gun and knife. robbed him OF
a watch chain and charm. diamond
stud, worth $500 and q four-hundred-
dollar roll OF bills
4 don't mind losing the money" he
said, but that fellow was mighty IN
grateful to treat me that way after we
had drinks together. They would shoot
man for that in Kentucky, where /
come from"
Visited TheateI.
On Thursday night he engaged a cab
and after a stop for few drinks in
which the cabby Joined. he went 10 the
Casino. Richardson paid for his seat
and thinks the cabby saw the roll then
At any rate. when he came out after the
show. the driver was waiting for him
and offered 10 drive him around a bit
and then home again, for another dol
lar. Richardson got in and drove around
for a while, stopping now and then to
Rave a drink with the Cabman. After
he had been carried about a half mile.
as he remembers IL. the cabby took a
friend on the box with him
In the course OF the drive the cab
passed the Grand Union Hotel. where
Richardson was stopping. and Richard
son poked up the trap door in the roof
and told the driver 10 let him out The
cabLy did not pay any attention. and
they had gone west on Forty-secoud
Street seven or eight blocks. Richard
son thinks. before he reached out and
grabbed one OF the reins turning the
horse TO the curb. Then he says he
jumped out.
Dazed by Blow
At the same time the claimants friend
jumped down from the box. grabbed
Richardson and struck him on the fore
head with something which he thinks
was 2 set OF brass knuckles The Ken
tuckian was dazed by the blow, and be-
fore he could think the man had yanked
Ihe revolver from his pocket and had
taken the stud and the watch and chain
Then Richardson drew his knife and
started for the thief, but before he had
gone a step, he says. the Cabman hit
him over the head with a sandbag. After
they had turned his pockets inside out
they jumped on the cab and drove away
At a gallOp.
Richardson was not unconscious. and
managed to get back TO the hotel He
went among the cabmen around the
Grand Central station late last nigh; and
picked out Frederick Moore. OF 4Sg Ninth
Avenue. as the man who had robbed
him. Moore was locked up in the East
Tnirty-ffth Street station on suspicion
Fle had none Of Richardson's property
On him when arrested.

Mr.. Dudley Grote, prominent Jewel
iancier of Paris. threatens the fash
ionable world with pearl famine. III
all the pearls in the oceans were to be
brought to the surface and offered for
s,le tomorrow" says Mr.. Grote. the
market would not be flooded, nor
would the demand for the delicate
white jewels be satisfied. There has
been steady increase in the demand
for pearls during the past few years.
and an accompanying falling of In the
supply. The cost has gone up more
than one realizes, and | think Is still
below the high-water mark
"Since 1890 the price of pearls has
doubled In the past three years 1t has
Increased fully 33 per cent. The num-
Der of oysters brought to the surface
of the waters of the world averages
SO 900 daily, more than were ever ta-
ken out before, and still the supply OF
pearls decreases. When | say supply

Probably half the spectators who at
tend ball games have vaguely won
dered and perhaps asked neighbors
why a batsman often picks up two
bats and swings them several times
about his head while waiting for his
turn at bat. Seldom is the correct
answer given, and the practice often
is looked upon merely as habit.
George Davis OF the White Stock
ings explains the perfectly logical
theory as follows:
After swinging two bats for several
seconds the players own bat seems
much lighter as he faces the pitcher,
and he feels this is likely to help him
in hitting the ball Players who use
heavy sticks are more frequently the
ones. who try the plan, although that
Is by no means the general rule. Jon es

swung two bats. Lajoie frequently

Alcohol Not a Food.


The following on this much-dis-
cussed subject. Is from the Medical
Record:
The well-known Viennese cliniciah.
Prof. Max Kassowitz. asserts that tho
dogma concerning the nourishing and
strengthening character of alcohol is
one of the fatal errors of science. He
holds the view that the majority of
physicians take up an inconsistent po-
sition with regard to the use OF al
cohol, for the reason that while they
are well aware OF its dangerous and
poisonous qualities. they nevertheless
contribute to making permanent the
false ideas concerning the value and
effects of alcohol which are so gem
orally disseminated. Kassowitz ex-
plains these Inconsistencies on the
ground that the teaching which con-
siders alcohol a food. because 1t is
burned in the organism has held its
ground in spite of many disregarded
newer Investigations which have
shown its indefensibility. He is,
therefore. of the opinion that the as
sumption ascribing food properties to
alcohol based on simple theoretical
consideration is a grave scientific er-
ror, the removal of which is the most
important preliminary condition to an
effectual battle against alcoholism"
