VETERANS SOON TO MEET.

SAN FRANCISCO. Cal, July IL
The members OF the local committee
on arrangements express the opinion
that the coming national encampmeut
of the Grand Army of the Republic in
this city will be the most significant,
the most interesting and one OF the
most largely attended reunions held
in recent years by the veterans Of the
civil war. And so indeed it will be ii
present plans. now well toward com.
pletion, are carried ont in detail.
1t will be the first national encamp-
ment ever held on the Pacific coast
by the great organization and as
consequence the entire state of Cali
fornia is taking an interest with the
city of San Francisco in arranging for
the reception and entertainment OF
the visitors. The expert testimony of
passenger agents whose roads reach
San Francisco directly or indirectly is
that the crowd will be,thc largest ever
entertained in this city.
Commander-in-Chief Stewart and his
associates of the executive committee
have chosen four days August Is, ~,

tional convention. The entertainment

MAY SEIZE ADULTERATED
FOOD PRODUCTS
o

WASHINGTON, ID. c., July IL
Secretary Wilson has obtained from
the Attorney General a formidable
weapon in the form OF an official opin-
ion upon phases OF the new pure food
law. The Attorney General lays
strong foundation for seizure and con
fiscation of adulterated. impure or
misbranded food imported but holds
that it will not be possible for the
Secretary of Agriculture to reach tne
INSCRIPTIONS American manufacturer
who imports separately the several
ingredients. The Sherman act pro
hibiting the misbranding of dairy or
food products will come in at this
point as an aid to the secretary, be-
cause the Sherman law Furnishes
those who introduce into any state or
territory any dairy or food products
which shall be falsely labeled or
branded as TO the state or territory In
which tney were made, produced or
grown, This law will compel unscru-
lous American manufacturers to prop
erly brand and label the compounds
he manufactures from imported food
pibuu''s' anu Sho" tllt touuiis oilbIH'
The Attorney General says In the opin-
ion: Indeed, the greater and more
prevalent evil is the labelling OF
foreign article as the product of some
particular state or territory, or vice
versa. This is certainly forbidden by
the act referred to, as is the labelling
OF an article OF one state or territory
as being the product Of another |
am Of the opinion that the act of July
/, 1902. applies to articles imported
from foreign countries which are la
beled as being of domestic origin"

JEWS PLAN A MEMORIAL DAY.

CHICAGO. Ill, July 1.-THE Jews
of Chicago have arranged to observe
tomorrow as memorial day
for the massacred Jews OF kisch-
ineff. Services will be held in
all synagogues,, and there will
be addresses and special prayers, The
appeals to the Jews to observe the
day says in part as follows:
The massacre at Kischineff pro-
voked the horror and Indignation Of
the whole CIVILIZED world without re
gard to religion and race. Everyone
who was able contributed literally
TO the relief of those stricken people.
The American press without excep-
ton did all that a CIVILIZED people
could do. We Jews did all We could
to collect money for the sufferers, but
now is the time TO do something on
the side of morality to remind our
people that such occurrences are not
spontaneous. There are no conse-
quences without causes, and it is time
to discover the cause of such out
breaks that we may be able TO prevent
them in the future"

for pennies, until at last she said to
him
Now. Willie, | don't like to give
you pennies; II you want money you
must work for it,"
The boy remained thoughtful for
some time Then within few days
the mother perceived that Willie had
plenty Of pennies.
She wondered little where he
could have got them from. but did not
question him.
One summer day she noticed that
some sort Of hullabaloo was going on
in the back yard. Looking out OF the
window she saw Willie surrounded By

She went down into the yard to see
