POISON FOOD TEST.
How DIR. Wiley's BOarders Get
First Dose of Acid. Inter-
esting Experiments.

! Twelve young men, guests of DR.
Fl. w. Wiley, chief Of the bureau OF
| chemistry at Washington, spent an
anxious Sabbath waiting for the in.
| ternal manifestations of the boraciC
dose that was surreptitiously intro
duced into their dinner the other night.
For several days DR.. Wiley has seen
signs of worry in his guests as the
begin. So he began with himself and
decided to start his treatment without
announcement to avoid nerve wreck
ing among his boarders, says the New
York Tribune. He superintendent the
culinary department himself aRd with
the dexterity of a Borgia slipped little
doses of acid into the food. When his
boarders returned, eager for the good
rations of the government, there was
no hint of acid. The menu bore no
sign such as Beef a la mode boracic,"
"Pate de foie gras acide" or Lobster
a la can" Tempting and appetizing
was the food, and pressing was the
doctor in his hospitality. But the real
secret is out now, and the twelve mar
tyrs to science learned to their horror
that insidiOus poisons were already at
work In their systems and digestion
wrecking acids were gnawing at their
vitals. From now on various imposing
compounds will linger in the food of
the guests of Uncle Sam, but the vic
tins will never be able to decide
whether they suffer from indigestion
or willful poisoning. Here is what
DIR. Wiley himself consented to say
about his work:
81 shall not allow the boys to know
when their food is treated with borax.
If they were told some of them might
get nervous, and the information would
have an effect upon their systems
which we would ascribe to the drugs.
1t was therefore thought better to keep
them in ignorance of the fact and to
administer the boracic acid without
their knowledge.
ga small quantity Of the boracic acid
will be used during the first few days
of the experiments, and the dose will be
increased. step by step, until the prop
er quantity is being taken by each Of
the board9rs. In order to prevent them
from knowing when the tests begin the
acid will be put directly in the food and
the capsules, for the time being, elimi-
mated"

Mexican Justice.
The Washington Post contains the
following rather curious reading:

The Washington Post contains the
following rather curious reading:
1.-THE way that the Mexicans dispense
justice seems queer to men from the
United States" remarked Mr.. Ralph c.
Stoneman of ST. Louis at the Hotel Bar
ton.
81 went to the land of the Montezumas
few years ago for my health and was
staying in a little town not very far from
the Texas border One morning the
corpse of a cowboy was found in the
bushes in the outskirts of the village. 1t
seems he had come over from the other
side of the Rio Grande to attend a fam
dango. He INDUCED a little too freely in
pulque while at the dance and doubtless
excited the jealousy of some hot headed
greaser because of too much attention on
the part of the American to a dark eyed
senorita.
"At least that was the theory of the
killing. because a bag of money amount
ing to 5000, all in gold, was found on the
body, proving that the murder had not
been done for robbery. Besides the coin
very costly six shooter, silver mounted
and ivory handled, was strapped around
the deceased. The finding of the gun was
the occasion of a trial before the local
alcalde or justice of the peace. 1t was
against the law to carry weapons, ana
the dead man was fined $780, just the sum
they found on him, for violating the Mex
lean statute"

The report issued by the census bu-
reau, on the cotton ginned of the crop
of 1902, to December 18th, last makes
an interesting exhibit. The report
shows a total 1900 835 bales, irrespec-
tive of weight, ard equal to S,905, 503
commercial bales.
Texas reported the largest number
of bales, 2, l67 ,462. Georgia comes Sec
ond on the list, reporting 1877 $50.
Mississippi is third, with / ,l35, 551 bales.
Alabama is fourth on the list, with
984, 944 bales Georgia is first on the
list in the humber Of gins making re-
ports. Statistic were collected from
5,046 gins in this state, from 4,542 in
Texas, 4,274 in MISSISSIPPI and from g.,
800 in Alabama.
According to estimates made by the
ginners, l,0O7, III bales remain of the
crop for the year, which will make the
total crop 10, 1863, SAG bales, irrespective
of weight, or total of 1868, PA COM
mere al bales. From this showing it
ape, rs that the crop is not as large
as bt been estimated by many people.
The 'rop will certainly not be more
tnan sufficient to meet the demand,
aao the the indications are that the
mills will find it difficult to secure sup
plies TO run them until another crop
is made.
il is also believed that these statis-
tic are thoroughly reliable. The re-
ports come direct from the cotton gins,
fro Z first hands, SO to speak, and the
dat. furnished will be of great value
in -timating the total crop.
