products Of that one valley alone amount

WRITER'S LITTLE MISTAKE.
American Newspaper Correspondent
at Port Arthur Got Left
on Eggs.

In Frederick Villiers' recent book
telling Of his experiences with the jap
anese forces at Port Arthur he mar
rates an interesting little incident that
occurred the day the correspondents
frst reached the front. They were
quartered In rooms at Dalny which had
been pillaged and desecrated by the
Chinese robbers after the evacuation
by the Japanese. He says: I'VE were
soon busy trying to make the place
habitab(e. Rations of food were sent
us from headquarters and our party OF
ten was soon split up into messes
Barry correspondent of the Chicago
Daily News), Ricarlton, the expert
Photographic artist, and myself re-
,,eived bread. potatoes and two chick
ems. Ricarlton took a great fancy to
one Of the birds, and. being tender at
heart, would not have 1t killed.
"In fact, he was quite Buddhist in
many ways, and would destroy only
flies. These insects l have seen him
send, with his unmailed fist, dozen al
time, without warning, to the shades
Of the blue bottle. But he spared
chickens, and this especial bird learned
to perch on his shoulder and to peck
bread from his hand. 1t was an awk-
ward situation. l took no delight In the
fowls winning ways and simply want.
ed its flesh, and Barry was Of the same
mind. Ricarltou at last proposed q
compromise. .-s~ossaEa1s.sadaa11ssA
HE said that he would take no share
of the bird that we had already
doomed, and he would let us have the
first dozen eggs that his chicken
which he had christened Kuroki. in
honor Of the famous Japanese general
should happen to lay. We agreed "a
this arrangement, but 1t was most un.
satisfactory. for, although Of course
feel certain that Ricarlton was nc
party to the deception, the wretched
bird turned out to be 4 rooster"

ApvLrERArIoNs IN GERMAN
Even Fruits Are Contaminated and
Acids Abound in Many Ar
tic1es Of Diet.

According to a report made to the
state department, DR.. H. Matthes, d..
rector Of the bureau ONCE for examin.
Ing foods Of the University Of Jena,
has published q statement relating to
the articles most frequently adulter.
ated. According to this statement,
$40 samples were examined in 1908
and 1860 in 1904. This number did
not include 116 samples of milk, which
were found to contain q very high per-
centage Of dirt.
It was found that apricots contained
sulphurous acid; effervescent lemon
ades did not contain a trace of pure
fruit juices; butter contained too little
fat and too much water; so-called bak-
Ing powder consisted of oleomargar.
Inc; egg noodles contained no yolk of
eggs, or at least very small quantities !;
huckleberry juice was spoiled COM
pletely; raspberry Juice was greatly
diluted. and some samples contained
glucose and coal.tar dyestuffs; mince.
meat contained sulphurous acid |;
ground mace contained -four, ground
toasted bread, Bombay mace and nut.
meg; marmalades were mixed glu.
cose and colored with coal.tar dyes;
milk was watered, skinned and often
very dirty; pepper contained lime
sand and a good deal Of the shell /;
sausages contained -four, boracic acid
and coloring matter; preserving salts
contained sulphurous. boracic, fouric
and benzoic acids, etc.
The report complains of the indif
ference shown by the masses regard
ing purity and reliability Of articles
of food. and the custom which prevails
in large cities Of having the examina
tions of such articles made by persons
not experts.
