MOntEomeFy Department Answered
 Twenfy~thFee Alarms.
 The report of the Montgomery Ire department for December was com pleted yesterday and shows some in- teresting facts about the record of the hremen during the last month of the year just passed.
 Twenty three alarms were received at headquarters and of these. two were received through the system of tele- graph alarm boxes and twenty-one were received over the telephone. The character of the buildings involved were: One four-story brick. one two- atory brick, one ohe-story brick, five tRo-story farmes, eleven one-story frames, one box car. one shed. One false alarm was answered.
 The value of the buildings at risk was $155,530, and the value of their contents was $11Ss6246. The loss sustained on buildings was $23,5e7.63. which was covered by insurance in the sum of $1O7,70O and of which 22,sS7.63 was paid by the insurance companies to the policy holders. The loss on the contents amounted to s11,710.S5, much of which was due to water, and of $103. .S62.46 insurance on contents, ss.. BIO 35 was paid on the losses. The loss over insurance paid was estimated at $S,sS0 and is considered small amount considering some of the did, cult fires which attracted the attention of the department during December.
 The Booth fire on Commerce street had gained great start before the fire was discovered and the department had hard job on its hands in extin- gushing the flames. Tn keeping adja- cent property front catching ire, some little water damage waB done though. of course, this could not have been pre- venteGo

BLOOD KILLS GERMS. Good Blood Made by Good Food.

If one can surely turn food into good red blood 1t will combat any and every disease known and conquer completely more times than the disease will win.
 Any physician will tell you that good rich blood and plenty of it Is the best germlcide known and surely and safely cures diseases when medicines faiL so the effort of the doctor is To give food that digests and quickly makes blood
 No food ever discovered will do this as certainly as Grape-Nuts. which Is predlgested at the pure food factories where it is made.
 One of the many illustrations Is that of tuberculosis. which refuses to yield to medicine, but must give way to good blood. A man from Philadelphia writes
 q have been fighting tuberculosis for some years and with a weak stomach was losing ground slowly every year. had tried all kinds of food and finally got so far along with the disease that my stomach, liver. kidneys, bowels and lungs were affected. My stomach got to a point where 1t would retain no food but peptonized milk and I was down to 90 lbs. in weight. The doc tors said about two years ago that, ] had but a month or two more to live. About that time was put on Grape Nuts and cream. It never showed the first sign of coming up. but agreed from the start and In a few days I be- gan to feel increased strength so kept on, with the result that the healthy blood has driven the disease the lungs and Is slowly driving 1t from them. have gained greatly in vitai- ity and strength and added 29 lbs. to my weight. If I can keep on as have been. It seems clear that will get en- tirely we'll thanks to old Dame Nature, whose work was made possible by food could digest" Name given by Postunl Co, Battle Creek Mich.

 Railroad EmDIOyes In the United States
 Court
 Three negro porters on the Central of Georgia Railway were kept busy being identified yesterday in the trial of the suit for damages of Larlxin Henderson Vs. the Central of Georgia Railway in the United States Court. Practically every witness, who went on the stand brought the porters in their testimony and as none of them knew the names of the brass buttoned colored individual, the three men were ushered into the court to be identified. They became used to this procedure and lined up before the witnesses with military celerity. 4 Henderson. a negro, sues the rail- road for having his feet cut off by the alleged negligence of the roads em- ployes.

A GREAT DAY
FOR THIS STATE
June 18th Should be Cele.
brated by the Whole
Commonwealth.

Reno is arranging reception fol
the Congressional Committee thai
will celebrate the turning on of water
into the big government ditch on
June 18th. 1t is great event and
marks a slistinctively new era in the
Development OF the west. Tile Silver
State thinks every county in the
State should be represented. Nevada
owes much to the national govern
ment-more than they realize-and
the coming of this Congressional Com
niittee, which includes tIe Governors
OF thirteen States-all in the arid, or
or seml-arId region-the Congressman
and Senators who have been promi-
nently identified with the movement
and other invited guests interested in
national arid to irrigation, should be
made day long to bc remembered.
1t is q pity that President Roose-
yeit. the man abJv4 all others who
caused tha rlgatl IN liw - Passed
when II was p.-,rd, could not he mere
tu turn the water into tile ing canal
which his ccu.dge and psrslstence
caused to be dug. But whether ab
seiit or present, his name will bonored
tina, day, along with others wao die
what they could to bring about the
beginning OF great things Tor the west
Some plan should be formed by
which the entire State can participate
in the celebration Silver State.

Hazen Saloonists

Nearly every saloon man at Hazen
ha been placed under arrest by Unit
ed States Marshall Grmmon and
ordered to appear in the United States
District court at Carson and show
cause why they should not be sum-
marily remov d from the government

The cases will come up th week at
Carson and it is expected that oil will
result in the men being expelled from
the ground they occupy.
Ever since the State failed to enact
law prohibiting the sale liquor
along the line oi the government irri-
CATION works there have been com
plants going into the Interior De-
partment about the evil effects OF
liquor selling at Derby, Hazen and
other construction points.
Finally the department issued ali
order prohibiting the sale of liquor on
government or homestead lands in
shch vicinities where a patent hac

TIE proceedings against the Hazer
dealeArs are based upon this order.

Nevada Cattle Men
viii Test Spine
less Cactus.

The catt.emen Of Nevada mean to
give practical test the celebrated
Buro ruk spinele~s cactus which is
bell we'd to be n valuable forage for cat.
| tie, Thousands OF the great ranges
throughout Nevada grow cactus in
abundance, but III their native state
they cannct be eaten ON account Of
their sharp spines which are death to
any animal that swallows them. By
years of patient cultivation Burbank
the wizard OF Santa Rosa, has elini-
mated this objectionable feature from
the plant and recently lie announced
that the new spineless cactus would
afford both food and water for the
range cattle of the desert states.
Recently the Enrska Live Stock
Company of Eureka county, took up
the matter with Mr.. Burbank in an
effort to secure plants of the spineless
cactus. In reply the information wa.
received that in about one year Mr..
Burbank would be able to supply the
plant In quantities and that their
order would be filled and given i'm
mediate attention, rs soon as ship
ments could be made.

The best authorities on the fruit
situation of this section give It as
their opinion that the yield this year
will not be more than 65 per cent of
that Of 1904, although they believe
the growers will make fully as much
money, II not more, off their crops as
they did the previous season. The
estimate shipments OF prunes and
pears from this part OF the state is
175 cars as against 27s last year. To
this estimate may be added the ship
ment of winter apples, bringing tho
total for this season up to something
over 200 cars. The fruit packing op-
erations will be in full swing in tits

sEAwEeD AS FOOD.
When Dry II In Richer Than Oatmeal
or Indian Corn.

or AhuAhh COrn.
Seaweed Is eaten on the coasts of
Scotland and Ireland in vast quantl-
ties and, though unpalatable and fla
vorIess, Is at times the chief food OF
the poorest.
When dry II Is richer than oatmeal or
Indian corn In nitrogenous constituents
and takes rank among the most nutri-
tlous Of vegetable foods.
To prepare seaweed for the table 1t
should be stepped in water to get rid of
the salt with which it Is impregnated,
and little carbonate of soda removes
the bitter taste, which to some palates
is most disagreeable. 1t should then be
stewed In milk or water till mucllagi-
nous and is best favored with vinegar
or pepper.
Fungi are almost everywhere largely
eaten, though in England less atten-
ton is paid to them than they deserve,
and few kinds appear at table.
A curious error Is to suppose that
fungi are eatable and toadstools poi
sonous No such line of demarcatlon
exists nor, strictly speaking, has the
name toadstools any precise meaning
Very many fungi are edible, and the
common agaric usually eaten in Eng
land Is not the most palatable and
wholesome Few foods are more sa-
worry, and none are greater favorites
than well cooked fungi, and the souls
Of vegetarlans yearn for them.-Pear-
sons Weekly.
