 tomorrow afternoon and evening. in
 q classic in American humor. Twas.
 according to Denman Thompson the i only ''Cy Prime who ever played in
 the old Homestead.' Carter, who determined to devote himself to the
 New Hampton Literary institution,
 gives an interesting account of his
 debut on the stage. He says: Den
 man Thompson was advertised to
 appear in Concord ill Joshua Whit comb. A number of us went down 10 see the performance. without con sulting the faculty. The result was that the faculty held consultation with us when we got back. it was that performance of Joshua Whit comb that gave me my first detarmi- nation to make the stage a pr0fes- sion. I was strongly impressed with tie part of Cy Prime and felt that I could play 1t if I could get the chance. About four years after that I stopped over in Concord one night on purpose to see Mir Thompson in ''The Old Homestead" play that has since proven to be the greatest success in history. I witnessed Cy Primes performance again and be came more convinced than ever that could portray the character ca the stage. From that time on, to play that part was the height of my first ambition realized that would be the stepping stone to an easy and sue cessful career behind the footlights. I could not go to Mir Thompson, however. and ask him for a trial un- til I had acquired experience. first went to Bostcn and got Il position us usher at the Hollis Street theater. where l could see and study the best productions, produced by the hest artists. remained there two years

OF SHOES.

The trained bloodhounds failed to
ferret out the men who robbed the
store at Barnesrille The burglars

from the rear. through the basement
and up flight Of stairs into the store
room There were stolen about thir-
ty-nine pairs of mems shoes. A lady
went by the store at the time the rob
bers We're selecting their goods But
size thought that the men were clerks
and paid no attention to them what
ever.
Eloodhounds We're put on the tracks
of the criminals. The dogs were
from Glen Falls. Harrison county
They got on the scent of the robbers
at once. and followed it as far as Buff
falo creek where the trial was lost
It is impossible for the dogs TO do
much when the parties pursued have
taken to the water. No scent Is left
for the dogs TO follow
The dogs were put on another scent
later in the day. but it was like the
other one. in that it also was fruit
less.
The store at Barnesville. which was
robbed. is in an outlayinE section OF
the town. and but few people pass it.
after night AS result il has been
robbed many times during the last
few years. Deputy Sheriff Watson
was the official who had the pursuit
n charge.

HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
HEARS OF The TERRIBLE
CONDITIONS AT CHICAGO

spectors in all establishments desir-
ing them The present law prohibits
the shipment of uninspected meat to
foreign countries, but there Is no pro-
vision forbiddinS the shipment of un-
inspected meats in interstate COM
merce, and thus the avenues Of inter-
state commerce are left open to traf-
fic in diseased or spoiled meats. II
as has been alleged on seemingly good
authority further evils exist, such as
the improper use Of chemicals and
dyes. the Government lacks power to
remedy them. a law is needed which
will enable the inspectors Of the Cen
eral Government to inspect and su-
pervise from the hoof to the can the
preparation of the meat food prod
uct. The evil seems to be much less
in the sale of dressed carcaSSeS than
in the sale of canned and other pre-
pared products.
In my judgment the expense Of the
inspection should be paid by fee
levied on each animal slaughtered. II
this is not done. the whole purpose of
the law can at any time be defeated
through an insufficient appropriation:
and whenever there was no particular
interest in the subject it would be not
only easy but natural thus to make the
appropriation insufficient If it were
not for this consideration I should
favor the Government paying for it.
,T.
quarters concerning this feature
should be allayed by a realization of
the fact that in no case. under such
a law. will the cost of inspection ex-
ceed s cents per head.
I call special attention to the fact
that this report is preliminary. and
that the investigation is still unfnish-
ed. 1t is not yet possible to report on
the alleged abuses in the use OF de-
leteriouS chemical compounds in con-
nection with canning and preserving
meat products. nor on the alleged doc
toring in this fashion of tainted meat
and Of products returned to the pack
ers as having grown unstable or un-
uSable from age or from other rea-
sons. Grave allegations are made in
reference to abuses of this nature.
Let me repeat that under the pres
ent law there is practically no method
of stopping these abuses if they should
be discovered to exist Legislation
is needed in order to prevent the pos
sibility of all abuses in the future. If
no legislation is passed, then the eH-
cellent results accomplished by the
work of this special committee viii
endure only so long as the memory
of the committees work is fresh. and
a recrudescence Of the abuses is alb
solutely certain
