Recorder Doremus in the police
court yesterday.
The children's Aid Society charged
Gantar with failing to support his
family. He admitted that when he
has not money to buy beer he drinks
vinegar, which inspires him with a
certain alcoholic exaltation.
NO wonder your disposition is
soured at srch times. Gantar," re.
marked the recorder. "You must give
bonds to support your family; Mrs.
Gantar, you must keep less vinegar in

NEW OIL FIELDS ARE oPER-
ATEo BY HAND PUMPS.
Queer Strike Made In Heart Of Re.
finery Section Of Warren, Pa.

WARREN. Pa. Aug. 25.-South
and Carver streets are alive with in
terest as a result of sensational
strike Of oil. In that neighborhood
there are at least dozen producing
wells. and under the fare of torches
scores Of others are being struck.
Charles Haggerstrom, the discoverer
Of the new field" has been pumping
his we'll day and night. and he has
produced up to date over 200 barrels
Of an excellent grade Of OIL. The pool
was discovered at a depth of II feet.
while Haggerman was drilling for
water, and every barrel of the produc.
ton has been brought to the surface
by means of an ordinary pitcher
pump. The well comes through the
kitchen floor and Haggerman has a
pipe line leading to receiving bar
'rels just outside the door.
Haggerman worked his bonanza
for some time before inquisitive
neighbors found that something was
doing and commenced operations On
their own account Owners of adj
joining property yesterday began
drilling and found that the maximum
depth at which the oil could be pro-
duced was 81 feet.
The field is located on what Is
known as the East Side fats sec
tion of the city given over to refiner-
les, manufacturing plans and homes
of workingmen employed therein.
Property is soaring, leases are being
taken at high figures and oil men and
sightseers from every part OF the
country are flocking to the scene, and
another day will see a very well de.
veloped oil boom under way. ST.

Various theories are advanced alto
the cause of the Strike" The onefa-
vored by oil men is that the seepage
from the refineries has accumulated in

tapped. This hardly explains, how
ever. the fact that the new field"
already extends over several 1 city

WOODS HEIRS GIVE
WIFE oNE-FouRTH.
To Avoid Lawsuit BY Former Actress
Children Make Terms Which
She Accepts.

NEW YORK. Aug. 25.-Children of
Alan w. Wood by his first marriage
have consented to settle upon Mrs.
Goldie Mohr Wood one-fourth of the
entire estate. Mrs. Woods counsel,
Henry w. Catlin, demanded one-third
as his clients share, but compromis-
ed when the children, to avoid motto.
riety of a lawsuit, offered the accept.
ed terms.
In dividing his estate Mr.. Wood
provided that his wife should receive
one.ninth, and that II she did not nc.
cept that without a contest she should
lose all. BY the agreement now
reached the will is nullified, and 1t is
doubtful II any provision of It will
be carried out.
One Of the conditions on which the
children Of Mr. Wood agreed to settle
with their stepmother was that she
and her attorney hereafter maintain
silence concerning the family's af.
fairs. Mr.. Catlin went to Pittsburg
and there interviewed the children Of
Mr.. Wood.

.EMBALMED MILK
AT CLARKSBURG
THE STUFF WON'T SOUR EVEN
WHEN BOUGHT TO MAKE
sMEAR.cAsE.

CLARKSBURG, Aug. 25.--what is
believed to be very sensational dis
covery has been made here in the
nature of milk sold by local diaries.
That the practice OF adulteration Is
being INDUCED In there is scarcely n
shadow of a doubt. Illustrations and
tests have been made to the, entire
satisfaction of some consumefs.
This week one OF the patrons Of a
local dairy purchased some milk. Be
Ing suspicious Of It and having heard
the product of the dairy questioned,
he concluded to test It. So. a pint Of
milk was placed in a tin pan, where
the SUMS hot rays struck It for two
days, and in all that time and all that
heat 1t did not sour. but Was just as
sweet as when II came from the
dairy.
K Another family few days ago pur.
chased some milk with the intention
of making smear-case out Of It, and
kept 1t week, but It did not curdle
and there were no signs Of sourness
or fermentation.
Still another case ia where, when
the milk does sour, 1t turns half to
water.
These tests indicate that the milk
man is putting something in the
milk, believed to be formaldehyde.
a poison. 1t is process of en-
balming to preserve the sweetness OF
the milk. -
A few days ago in. Ohio twenty
persons were poisoned by using
milk, which 1t was discovered after.
ward contained formaldehyde, and in
Parkersburg the same complaint has
gone up against the dairymen. The
same is true in Wheeling.
II is stated that the use OF form
aldhyde poison in milk has been re-
sponsible for hundreds of deaths an.
nually. This being true II is dan
gerous practice. violation OF the
pure food law, and the grand jury
should make a sweeping investiga-
tions Il 3 q
The parties who made the tests
are known and their names can be
furnished at the proper time. The
names Of the dairymen who sold the
milk are also known, and can be
furnished for an investigation. which
Sc is urgent should be made at once.

TO RAISE WAR SHIPS
PERRY SANK IN 1912.
Americans Seek Vessels Of British
Fleet for Museum, But Canadian
Newspapers Object.

DETROIT, Mich, Aug. 25.-Agita-
ton by several Dominion newspapers
threatens to precipitate an interna
tional controversy over the proposed
raising and removal to Detroit of
three British war vessels which were
sunk in the River Thames in the IA
nous land and naval battle of Octo.
Der 5. 1912.
These vessels were part of the
British fleet that attempted to re.
sist Commodore Perry at Put.in.B Bay.
The vessels were practically forgot.
ten until several years ago, when un-
usually low water in the Thames re-
yealed one of them. No action was
taken. however, until several days
ago. when Detroit exploring party,
headed by C. NJ. Burton and Charles
L. Clark, quietly began operations.
So far the work of the explorers and
their divers has resulted in the def.
mite location Of three vessels.
If plans are carried out the vessels
will be presented to the city of De-
troit and be placed in specially con-
structed museum on Belle Isle.
Newspapers on the Canadian side,
however, are vigorously protesting
such action, and 1T is not unlikely
that the Dominion government will
be called upon to take action in the
matter.

County Clerk:
Dear Sir-We are enclosing herewith
blank for you TO use Ia complying
with section /, chapter Al, Of the ses-
sion laws Of 1905. Please send US this
report Immediately after the county
treasurer has made his settlement with
the county. It ought TO reach this office
by October 8 Be careful in reporting
the balance Of state taxes remaining in
the county treasury. as the state treas
urer viii draw a sight-draft on the
county treasurer for this amount. This
office win take care, OF course. to see
that no sight-draft is drawn in excess
of the balance due the state from your
county for the taxes Of 1904 and prior
years. Leave your claim for double
and erroneous assessments out OF con-
sideration in making this report
This is the latest plan which has been
resOrted to to get q little more money
into the state treasury to stave off the
evil day when warrants must be stamp
ed not paid for want Of funds.
Since the state drew on the county
repositories for s466000 about the first
Of September. there has of course been
a small amount coming into the county
treasures which also belongs to the
state. It IS not known how much this
will amount to. but the state officers,
after consulting over the matter for
some time. believe that they have an
thority to draw on the treasures for
the money

SAYS IT'S ABSURD.
Cudahy Issues Signed Statement Re
garding Pat Groves Confession.

Omaha Neb.. Oct. Edward A. Cud-
ahy today gave to the Associated Press
8 signed statement touching the confer
sion said to have been made by Pat
Grove in which he says:
AS to the alleged statement of Grove
that my son was a party to the plot,
Il is so absurd. particularly in the light
of his previous statements that can
hardly believe that he made it. It Ger
tally is untrue
Tor several years nave made no
effort toward securing the arrest of
Grove, although having seen two let
fsrs signed by him admitting that he
alone was guilty of the kidnapping and
begging clemenCy, stating that he
wanted to start life anew. In one of
these letters he says:
60 i am guilty of the Cudahy affaiS
I am to blame for the whole crime.
After it was over I regretted my az
and offered to return $4,000 to Mr..
Cudahy. but he refused to take it, and
then I went to South Africa. where 7
joined The rebel army and was badly
returned to America, and have re-
peatedly tried to make peace with the
man 7 wronged.
II have felt duty bound to refrain
from agreeing not to prosecute him,
believing that this was a matter en-
tirely within the province of the state
authorities
''I deplore the continued publicity
which has been given this entire mat
ter, for it has been a constant source
Of anxiety and annoyance to me and to
all the members of my family.
