Does Tobacco Cause BlIndness7

A doctor stated in an English coun'

man of middle age was sufferer
from the effects Of half an ounce a
week.

uAcENBARTH'S BAD BREAK.

the National Live STOCK Association, is
about as sapient; about as wise; as
sagacious; about as acute as any man
who ever came down the pike. This
is demonstrated by an interview he
stands sponsor for in yesterdays issue
of the Herald. In this interview he
attempts to show why beef on the hoof
brings a very low price to the retailer.
Listen to what Mr.. Hagenbarth says,
you buyers of meat.
Beef is high to the consumer, be-
cause more than half the consumers in
this country demand loin steak or rib
roast. They will not buy the cheaper
and poorer grades of meat. The result
is that there is an abnormal demand
for the better meat while the poorer
meat goes begging. Go into the market
and you will find that you can buy the
neck, the shank and the other part
of the carcass aside from the loin sur
prisingly cheap"
All of which shows that Hagenbarth
doesn't know what he is talking about.
1t may be true that the neck is cheap
it always has been cheaper than the
other parts of the carcass, but there
are several dips, spurs and angles to
a carcass outside the neck. And there
is more loin in a beef than there is
neck. But let us lay aside
the loin and the rib and buy
a piece of common round steak, some
of it tougher than that cut from a
Bull of Bashan. How much does two
bits buy Mr. Hagenbarth? About one
pound and a half. Some shops may
sell a little more, but take any of the
so called standard markets and try it.
Take the flank steaks dry, tasteless
fodder that they are, and see how
cheap they sell at. A quarters worth
will just about cover your two hands.
How about brisket and rump roasts
Can you touch them for less than 1914
cents and oftener IA and Is cents the
pound? Nit. Surely Hagenbarth lets
his cook buy the meat and knows
nothing about it. Tangle up with a
shank bone for soup Mr.. Hangen
barth and see what you pay for it.
Time was when a soup bone was
cheap, now the salesman charges you
about % cents a pound for the meat
on one and throws the bone in. He
is always generous with the bone, is
the modern butchers salesman. If
Hagenbarth knows no more about
prices of beef than his interview dem
onstrates Hangenbarth ought to
resign and get himself cleo
ted President of some saw
mill association. Every housewife in
Zion can successfully contradict him.
Time was when liver was supposed
to be an article that any one could
have. Nowadays liver sells anywhere
from twelve to twenty cents per
pound. The butcher used to cut out a
small bit of the bone from ones steak
and saw off the lower bone and the tail
bone from ones leg of mutton. He
will do it yet, but not until the meat
has been weighed. After it is yours,
if he is a good fellow, he will cut 1t
out and toss it into the box where 1t
remains until the proprietor OF some
dago joint comes round and buys the
whole mess for soup.
Hagenbarth declares the people all
want rib roast and loin steaks. Let
him look at the bargain counters IN
the Palace and other leading meat
markets every night and see care worn
wives overcrowed the place in their

DIR. Robert Stuart Macarthur,
in an Article, Comes to
Defense of Rockefeller
DENIES ALL CHARGES
Says He Has Bestowed Gift
on Humanity by System
of Commercial Methods

NEW YORK, May 3l.-The recent
criticisms Of John D. Rockefeller. grow
ing out OF his gift OF 100000 to the
American Board of Commissioners for
Foreign AIissions are declared in an
article by the Rev. DR.. Robert Stuart
Macarthur, pastor Of the Calvary Bap-
fist Church OF this city. to be published
tomorrow in the Examiner, a Baptist
publication, to be coarse, cruel and per-
haps criminal. and to have maligned
the entire Baptist denomination. He
protests against the condemnation Of
our churches by these cowardly and un-
GUST attacks" declares that no one
knows better than Rockefeller that he
cannot buy the approval OF Bapsists by
his millions. ana that Baptists would
advocate his expulsion from the church
II IL were proved that he had acquired
his money dishonesty or by means
morally or socially destructive.
He adds that he has investigated GER
tain business transactions, which have
been fiercely denounced by Rockefel-
ler's critics. and has found them in &C
cordance with the highest standards CT
commercial morality. Rockefeller, he
asserts is worthy of confidence. admi-
ration and affection. and appeals for
fairness of judgment for him. The
writer continues;
many years and my intimate personal
acquaintance with him has convinced
me that he is worthy of the highest
honor as a man and of the fullest con-
ndence. esteem and affection as a Chris
tian. In so enormous a business as
that Of the Standard oil Company il is
inevitable that agents of the company
perform acts without Mr.. Rockefellers
knowledge and without his approval
A high officer of the Standard OIL Com
pany intimately acquainted for nearly
a generation with Mr. Rockefeller's
daily influence in his counsels informed
me recently that Mr.. Rockefeller had
always been quick TO deplore and TO
correct instances Of unjust and injur-
iOUs over-zeal."
Rev. DR.. Macarthur declares that the
critics Of Rockefeller appeal TO the
passions of the sunthinl1ing multitude

points out that DE- William J. Tucker,

not be branded as criminal because
Dartmouth owned stock in the North
ern Securities, says that the SUPPOSE
ton that Rockefeller is worth a billion
dollars is grossly false and that in the
last two or three years his benevolent
gifts were at least twice as much as the
increase ain his estate.
The pastor further asserts that
Rockefeller has made a gift of high
value 10 humanity in revolutionizing
business methods and af7irms that,
while some men have been crowded. to

Standard Oil Company. every COMPETE

]. B. Mcmillan, Who Has
Been Playing the Swell,
in Jail.
Especial to News and Observer)


Greensboro. n. c.. Dec. 30.-J. E.
Mcmillan. age tWenty-seven who came
here two moi tbs ago, claiming TO be
the son OF u wealthy banker of st.
Louis, was placed in Jail here to-
might, in default Of bail. on a charge
of forgery. Mcmillan representing
himself as lumber dealer, obtained
access to the business of the Cape
Fear Lumber Company. ostensibly to
learn it prior to becoming one oil
the firm. January first. He purchased
an interest for $4,000 yesterday
drawing checks for the amount on
banks in Savannah. Seattle and ST.
Louis.
1hesc were forwarded for collec-
ton. Last week McMillen received
a check from Duluth payable to the
Cape Fear Lumber Company for $3.50.
Having access to the company'S Office
he endorsed this to him! .lf, using the
companys stencil, prosecuted it to the
bank and received the money. a
wire from Duluth this afternoon that
the check was q forgery, caused an in
vcstigation by the lumber company,
who knew nothing Of it before, and
this resulted in the immediate arrest
of Mcmillan. who was required to
give $500 bail. bond being required
for his appearance before the grand
jury.
This case develops the fact that
another check for $500 coming here
for Mcmillan from Seattle, he pro-
cured a wealthy business man to en-
dorse two days ago, getting the cash
thereon. This is q supposed forgery,
but it has not been heard from.
Mcmillan showed that he was sraart
enough for q criminal lawyer in the
examination this afternoon. 1t is sup
posed he intended making a bigger
haul before his $25,000 checks were
heard from. Since coming here ne has
been something of society man, hav-
ing entree as guest in the swell club
organizations of the city. Nothing is
known OF his antecedentS or his place
of residence. his name even suppos-
edly being an alias.
