While considering subjects CT gen.
eral welfare to our State it would be
well for US to give attention to the
importation and sale OF adulterated
and impure food products. Other pro-
gressiye States give the greatest at
tention to this very important Ques-
tion, which we cannot afford to let
pass without due consideration. It is
we'll to see that when our people pay
their money for pure food they should
have this, and not such adulterations
as are deleteriouS to their health.

NINE CAGE DROPS.

Victor. March IA disastrous ac-
cident to machinery and miraculous
escapes from death took place at the
Portland mine No. 2. yesterday. The
accident occurred through break in
one of the reels around which a heavy
fiat cable runs. as the cages are raised
and lowered in the shaft 1t is
balancing the other.
A few moments before the weak
brake gave way and prevented tho
clutch from going into placs so that
the reel coulC be held by the engine.
General Manager Finlev and Superin-
tendent Fitzgerald had alighted from
one of the cages on the shaft house
floor. Within half a minute after
the brake refu sed to work. the reel
was revolving at terrific rate Its
great speed was caused by the weight
of the loaded double cage. at the 500
foot level. The big reel soon began
to fly apart. When it did the flying
iron and steel wrought swift destruc-
tion in the shaft house.
Engineer Williams in order to save
his life was forced to leave his post
where. as a matter of fact, he was un-
able to do anything to help matters.
The engine had been stopped. Engi-
neer Williams shouted to the others in
the shaft house to get out. They all
escaped without injury, though it is
more than remarkable that they did.
The reel went all to pieces. Two
Thousand feet of the cable went down
to the bottom of the Shaft, which is
between l, 200 and 1.3O0 feet deep and
is piled up ON the cage which fell 700
feet.
While the reel was tearing itself to
pieces the shaft house and Rallows
frame were also being rent About
half the roof of the shaft house was
torn off The building was practi-
cally split in two.

FOUL PLAY sUsPEo TED.

New York. March 11.-The body
of Millionaire Theodore Hagaman will
be exhumed tomorrow, the district at
torney having secured evidence which
indicates that he may have been muir
dered after his wife had secured the
uossession of the property
Startling developments regarding the
disposal of the fortune of the dead
man may be expected at an early date.
An effort is being made to have a
disinterested person appointed as adj
ministrator of the estate. and an in
vestigation calling for an accounting
by Mrs. Francis FreeIand Hagaman
Delbarre, as to the disposal of the mil
lion and half dollars which Haga-
man is alleged to have been possessed
of, will be demanded.
The former Mrs. Hagaman made a
settlement with the relatives of the
deceased, for So, 600 they signing re-
lease to all claims. Since that time.
the relatives assert that they have as
ertaiued that the estate was much
larger than they were given to un-
derstand and they have asked an ac-
counting.
When Mrs. Hagaman was examined.
she admitted having received large
checks from Mr.. Hagaman at various
times. Some she deposited to her own
account and large amount was in
vested in stocks and bonds by the ad-
vice of her attorney.
She testified that during the last six
weeks of Mr.. Hagaman's life. she
came into possession of 1913. 1892. which
she transferred from her husbands
bank account to an account opened in
her own name. She did this, she
claims, by means of the powers of an
attornye. granted to her by Mr. Hag
aman.
The woman was of good appearance
and well dressed. A surgeon who ex-
amined the body said that death was
due to fracture at the base of the
skull. There was blood upon the
stair leading to the club room as
though the woman had been thrown
down. or had tried to drag herself up
after she was hurt. Thirteen colored
men who were in the club rooms.
were taken to the station house. and
four of them were locked up on sus-
picion of knowing something of the
manner in which the young woman
came to her death.
