WILL ANALYzE BOOZE" DROPS.
Health Omcer Says They Are Prob
ably Not Very Harmful.

Health officer W. c. Woodward yester-
day received for analysis several samples
Of booze drops" which are said to con-
tain spirltuous liquors. and which. it is
alleged, have been sold to the children of
the Central High School BY certain store
keepers in that vicinity. DR.. Woodward
was unable to make an anylsis. as the
samples were not sufficient in number.
In order to determine the character of
the ingredients, he says a pound Will be
required. The analysis viii probably be
made tomorrow.
The booze drops which have so
aroused the parents OF school children
and the District officials have the ap-
pearance of the ordinary chocolate drop,
and contain some form of liquid which,
Il is claimed, contains a cOncoction of
rum and whisky.
Or. Woodward said that as the result
Of the analysis of a similaIs candy about
four years ago il WAS found 10 conJ9in
about fifty one-hundredths OF ! per cent
alcohol, and in his opinion the ordinary
candy was about as injurious as the So
called booze contents

Restoration in Army.

Recently a statement went broadcast

WASHINGTON Is HONEST.
The "Pay what You Please" Plan
Works Well Here.

ct wouldn't work in any other city but
Washington said the cashier of the little
restaurant: that is, it never has worked
anywhere else, and I suppose that speaks
well for the general honesty Of the citi-
zens here"
It was a little cafe on a prominent
street; one of those help yourselves places,
where few of the dishes offered are over
5 cents in price, but where the coffee IS
excellent, the sandwiches fresh. the pas
try haky and appetizing. The chairs
have a wide arm, similar to the big chair
which Gen. Lew Wallace designed for his
own use, and on the wide arm of which
he wrote most Of "Ben-Hur." and the
patrons Of the place are Of the better class
Of clerks, departmental employees. and per
haps a smattering OF lawyers and business
men.
There is no limit to what one can select
and take away from the counter. and
there are no lynx-eyed watchers TO keep
tab. One eats and drinks what one de
sires. reads the while the latest magazines
and papers, which are handily provided.
and before going out one reckons up his
bill himself and deposits the amount on
the cashiers desk.
How much do I Owe?'' the stranger
may ask.
THAT is for you to say. sir will be the
rejoinder; you know what YOU had" And
whether the amount deposited be 10 cents
or a quarter, there are no questions asked.
The plan works admirably in Washing
ton" says the proprietor. but IL has failed
everywhere else. They tried It in New
York. but such places became the haunts
Of deadbeats; the Baltimore dairy lunch
places found it would not work; Boston
Chicago. and Philadelphia have all given
the plan trial and found it lacking Only
in Washington the scheme works to per-
fection; no one is questioned, no one is
doubted; we take what is paid US and at
the days end we seldom have TO reckon
up q loss. Sometimes, indeed, some of our
regular patrons come in, short of cash,
and eat more than they pay for, but we

ARRESTED ON U. S. VESSEL.
Fishermen In Newfoundland to Fig
ure I'm Test Case.

In direct violation Of the modus vivendi
recently concluded by Ambassador Reid
with the foreign Office in London. the au-
thorities in Newfoundland have arrested
two fishermen. natives Of Newfoundland,
who were employed on the American
fishing vessel Ralph Hale.
The State Department, upon receiving
information on the subject. telegraphed
Commissioner Alexander, who is on board
the naval tug Potomac, now in New
foundland waters, 10 tell the arrested
men 70 facilitate the proceedings.
The dispatch said also that the State
Department assumes that the arrests
we're made so there might be a test case
Of the colonial laws TO ascertain If they
were made void by the modus vivendi
which Great Britain signed. Whatever is
the outcome OF the trials OF the fisher
men in Newfoundland. the State Depart
ment Will stand by their government
rights. The colonial government expects
that this prosecution will cause the native
fishermen to refuse TO ship on American
vessels
