STUDYING Produce Exchange.

The Messrs. Elggren while in Los An

the Los Angeles produce exchange with
view TO the mooted formation of a Salt
Lake exchange. They are bringing back
with them for presentation to the local
produce men full information of the or
ganization in the City Of the Angels as
well as copies OF the bylaws and rules
1t is expected that the new exchange to
be organized here will be largely based
upon these. The new exchange will not
be long in getting under way, il Is

question is whether the population OF

upon as likely to support the govern

A detachment OF $50 Cuban artillery
men from Havana have reached Pina1

STOCKTON, Cal, Feb. 9.-Last

Sablich and M. Vukotich have been
imprisoned since Monday evening. Tie
ground is very treacherous. The time

is certain not to take place today.
Several of the rescue party have been

Gigantic Proposition Is Being Con-
sidered in New York.
PLANS NOW UNDER CONSIDERATION
Friends and Supporters of the Move
ment Are Very Active In
the Campaign.

NEW YORK, Feb. 9.-The board of
estimate of New York is holding a
public hearing today in regard to
gigantic proposition for the creation
of a municipal fresh air charity for
children and convalescent hospital pa
tients. The plans for the establish
ment of the charity include the ac-
QUESTION of over 1000 acres of ocean
frontage at Long Beach, L. l., as well
as the purchase of the entire property
at that place, owned by the Long
Beach Hotel company. This includes
the Long Beach hotel as well as over
thirty cottages
The plan was originally suggested
by Mayor Mcclellan in his annual
message and since then the project
has been carefully investigated by the
friends of the plan. Nothing definite
could be learned as yet in regard to
the price which the Long Beach Hotel
company puts on it's property. 1t has
a total acreage of something like 5000
acres. OF this only the 1000 acres
along the water front is desired by the
city. 1t is understood however that
the company valued its entire hold
ings at several million dollars and that
part which the city would purchase
if the scheme goes through, at about
one million and one-half
The plan has many friends and sup
pOrters but there is also some strong
opposition to it. The Rockaway
Beach Taxpayers association is among
the opponents of the Long Beach plan
and will strongly advocate that, in
stead of purchasing the Long Beach
property. the city acquire the barren
and sandy waste at Rockaway park.

GILLIAN GREE1s OLD FRIENDS
HIMSELF IN FAMILIAR QUAR-
TIERS At THE CITY JAIL.

TEX" Gil an, who used to be quite
a frequent boar5er at the city Jail in
years gone h.. dropped into town yes
terday just r.. shcw the boys that he
was still on Garth. The presence of
TEX" dill no become known to the
,olice until efter that worthy had
stored away lew drinks beneath his
belt and proceeded to create a little
disturbance al by his lonesome.
ITS Just like it used to be- muir
INJURED TEX after he had been safely
landed in the city bastile and stood
gloomily surveying the familiar sur
roundings.
yep, there is that old blanket and
mattress that used to be such COM
fort to my weary form so many years
ago." continued to himself. 1T is SC
natural after these many years"
"Tex" was allowed to sleep off his
comfortable jag" that he had acquired
and this morning he was informed that
Walla Walla had reformed and that 1t
would be healthier if he would step
over the city limits. TEX said lie
hated to leave his old-time friends OF
such notice and pleaded for few days
grace. TEX" was still wandering UP
and down Main street at noon, so it is
evident his pleadings touched a soft
spot in the chiefs heart and he will
be allowed to remain a few days until
he can get his bearings.
Handy With His Knife.
TEX" came into prominence several
years ago by slashing young man
named Morrisey with knife at Waits
burg. For this little trick he spent
several months in the county Jail. On
being released "Tex" disappeared and
the police had almost forgotten MIN

owners for matchmaking nearly 10
miles of county roads leading into

In view of the large amount of paw
ing that the city will do this year
there is a growing sentiment among
business men and property owners
that the commissioners should favor

Government Has Done,,Nothing With
Secretary's Recommendation.
MANY VESSELS WITHOUT ADEQUATE GUNS
Supply of Ammunition Very Low
Much Is Needed for Uncle
Sans Sea Fighters.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Feb. 9.-Jn
it's recent report to Secretary of the
Navy Bonaparte, the joint army and
navy board has strongly urged the
need of providing the naval service
with a reserve supply of guns of all
calibres and the corresponding ammu-
milton. Despite the previous recon-
mendations nothing has been done by
the government toward getting such a
supply of war material. 1t is roughly
estimated and the estimate is con-
sidered conservative, that it will re-
quire nearly $10,OOO,00O to obtain guns
and ammunition absolutely necessary.
AS the situation is today, our vessels
are without guns of any sort to replace
those suddenly disabled or withdrawn
from service. The reserve supply, it
is estimated, should be 25 percent OF
the guns now in service, while the re-
serve quantity of powder must be
much greater. 1t is said in the report
of the joint army and navy board that
it would not take more than half an
hour for a ship to exhaust it's supply Of
ammunition, and, Of course, in time
Of action such provision must be
made to replenish the depleted maya
zines. This can be done according to
plan offered by the joint board by
having ammunition ships, which would
be specially designed to carry vast
be accessible to the vessels on the fir
ing line. At present, the board points
out, the only way we have of getting
ammunition to Ship is by means OF
one of the Golfers which is specially
fitted for this purpose. 1t is believed
that the ammunition could be acquired
and retained in stock. There may be
a large quantity of smokeless powder
stored without fear of it's deteriora-
ton. The powder experts of the navy
say that the latest type Of ammunition
may be depended upon to keep without
serious change, and that the only vari
alton is due to evaporation, which
does not affect in any way the stability
of the powder. The failure to acquire
reserve guns and powder is regarded
by the joint board as of the utmost
gravity.

PRIEST AND STUDENTS DROWN
CATHOLIC CLERGYMAN GIVES HIS
LIFE TO SAVE BOYS WHO
WERE IN PERIL.

LA SALE, Ill, Feb. 9.-One Of tins
most distressing tragedies that has
occurred in this vicinity in recent
years happened at St. Bede college
near La Sale, this afternoon wher
Father Gilbert and three students
Cam Bannin of Champaign, Charles
Reuter- of Chicago and Frank Christie
of ST. Louis lost their lives by drown
ing.
Several students, accompanied by
Father Gilbert, one of the professors
of the college, had gone skating The
ice was supposed to be perfectly safe
and after skating some time, twelve
of the students posed for a photo
graph.
Suddenly the ice gave way and al
We're thrown into the water, which a.
this point was about ten feet deep.
Father Gilbert's attention was called
by the frantic cries of those in the
icy water and he skated to the -.;.,r
and into the water, ordering the others
to keep back from the hole. The priest
succeeded in saving three of the boys
and then sank from view. Reuters
one of the seniors who drowned, res
cued two boys before he sank, and the
others saved were pulled out of the
water by other students.

Countless physicians and druggists
are now prescribing and indorsing
Vinol as the most valuable cod liver

is fast superseding all other forms of
cod liver oil.
A prominent physician writes: Il am
satisfied that Vinol derives it's Won
derful fe-giving and strength GREAT
ing power from the medicinal curative
the best strength creator and vitalizer
for old people, weak women, children,
and the convalescent that 1 ever saw"
Another physician writes: Il could
cite many cases where health has been
restored in a surprisingly short time
by Vinol I should be very sorry to
have to do without Vinol in my prac-
tice 1t has no equal for hard colds,
throat and bronchial troubles
Now, when We tell you that we nave
never sold in our store a remedy of
such remarkable curative and strength
creating power as Vinol, for the weak
the sick and the aged, and that if it
fails to accomplish what We say it will
we will refund your money without
question, no ailing person should hesi-
tate to try Vinol with such an under

sions and other tonics fail, Vinol will
