TED HEMP.

No subject has of late been more
widely and more exhaustively discuss
ed in the columns of newspapers and
periodicals of all kinds, both in this
country and abroad, than that of the
adulteration.
The causes which have led to the
investigation and discussion of this
matter are found in the widespread
adulteration of liquor. This evil has
grown to such proportions as to not
only prove a menace to health, but to
become, in fact, the foundation of
many ailments which afflict mankind.
1t were time the press and people took
up arms against the unscruplous deal
ducts which. while pretending to be
pure, are the vilest and most perniSi-
Gus of substitutes; not only imparing
the health of consumers, but endanger-
ing their lives as we'll.
Not only are the jobbers and whole
salers at fault, but also the retail deal
ers. Whiskey when it leaves the dis
tillery is necessarily pure, but after
passing through the dealers hands
much of it reaches the consumer in
a most dangerous state of adultera-
ton. The temptation to adulterate
the goods in order to make more profit
is too strong for the average dealer
lutte protection the consumer has is
to buy direct from a United States
registered distiller Then you know
the whisky is perfectly pure and at
the same time you save the enormous
profits of the dealers. This method
of selling direct from distiller to con-
sumner positively prevents any tam
pering or adulterating by a second
or third party, and should receive
the praise and patronage of every
American who is in favor of purity
as against vileness; safety as opposed
to danger
The Haynes Distilling company's
announcement, elsewhere in this pa
per, is worthy of your careful consid-

OUTWIT CHURCHMEN.
Take Church Inventory in Early
MORNING., While People Sleep.

PARIS, Feb. 24-The government
ing inventories of church property
without fights and scandals The meth
Cd consists in sending treasury agents
to the churches at o'clock in the
morning, while the faithful are yet in
bed By this procedure the inventories
in Paris have been effected without
trouble.
1t was necessary to have the services
of locksmiths and experts to open the
safe at the Madeleine and also firemen
to break down the doors of the vestry
of ST. Eustache, owing to the ardor
of the opposition.
While the senate is discussing meas
ures for insuring the safety of the bal
lot and is voting for the private vot-
ing booth and the envelope for the tick
cts, the chamber of deputies is pro-
ceeding with the budget rebate and
also discussing the workmen's pension
bill. This pension bill does not, how
ever, lack basis, because on one side
the deputies want to extend it's bene-
fits to the greatest number of persons,
going even to the extent of comforting
the boon On the farmers. On the 9TH
of finance, knows how much these La
bilities will cost. When the final COM
putation is made there will be many
surprises and disillusiOns.
During the weeks there rose and fell
a little conflict between the govern
ment and council of the Legion
D'Honneur. The council is composed
of civilians and military men who in
the quality of guardians are charged
with the duty of verifying the honor
ableness of candidates. The council
wanted to hoist itself to the Importance
of Judging the candidates merits.
Recently the ministers, according to
CUSTOM distributed decorations among
their young heads of departments, and
the council neglected the men as lack
ing the necessary qualifications. This
action constituted a trespass on execu-
tive prerogatives. The ministers,
however, held the winning cards, as
it is the ministers who appoint the
members of the council of the legion.
The latter have yielded and recognized
as satisfactory the qualifications in
question.

who left the Yerkes mansion On Fifth
avenue in hurry last week, was actu-

to shake off bill collectors.

but Mrs. Miner declared today that
she loved the dashing westerner as
much as ever, and that he wa. on a
short trip to his San Francisco home.

PART OF IN is MEASURED.

LONDON, Feb. PA remarkable
discovery has been made by DR.. H. E.
! Shaw, one of the physical science lee
turers at the university college, Not
| tingham, whereby measurements up to
one 70-millionth part of an inch can
| be taken and is likely to lead to some
vitality important developments in sci
entific investigation. 1t has already
been applied to practical use in the
| improvement of telephones. 1t will
measure the smallest audible move
ments in the telephone diaphragm,
movements on only one 40-millionth
part of an inch. The apparatus has
proved of the greatest use in measur-
ing engineering gauges, SURPRISING all
other methods in delicacy and accu-
racy. Wireless telegraphy is expected
to benefit from Dr. Shaws work to a
very great extent, his wonderful mech
anism acting as a most delicate CO.
herer.
The most important branches of sci
ence which will receive aid from the
invention will be those dealing with
the investigation Of the secrets of life
and matter, the instrument aiding
physicians in studying nature, possibly
even the movement of molecules, of
matter invisible, and the elements of
all that one can see and touch.
When DR.. Shaw was conducting his
experiments he had to use the vaults
under the university and he could only
work in the dead of night, when all
the factories were closed and the traf-
fic in the streets entirely suspended.
He has spent many nights in the vaults
experimenting in the last five years.
and is still improving the apparatus;
he has every hope of measuring guam
titles still more minute.
Some idea of the delicacy of the
instrument may be- gained from thel
fact that the vibrations of an engine
one hundred yards from the vault
make it impossible. for DR.. Shaw toI
work while it is running 1t is so deli
cate that he cannot demonstrate it'll

ed even by ordinary dusts and

CHICAGO, Feb. 24-Shocking mu-
tilations of native women, their chill
dren and their husbands, in the Congo
Independent state, by cannibal agents
of King Leopold II of Belgium, were
described to women of Chicago today
by Mrs. William Harris, who far seven
years has been missionary in the
robber district of the Congo.
Only women were admitted to the
meeting, which was held in the hall of
the Chicago Women's club at the Fine
Arts building One woman said the
horrors described We're so horrible
that many had to leave the room.
But all decided to take up the work
of bringing pressure to bear on the
American government and the other
nations to have Leopold removed from
control of the Congo.
The cuntry which King Leopold
promised to rule in a moral. humani-
tartan way, is divided up among vari-
Gus rubber trusts in which Leopold
holds so per cent of the shares in re-
turn for the right of exploitation, and
a vast tract is the private hunting
ground of the king himself" said Mrs.
Harris. Towns constantly are being
charged with shortage in their rubber
tax.

'I am never without Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Ointment since 1 tried them last summer. About the latter part of July my whole body began to itch. 1 did not take much notice of 1t at first, but 1t began to get worse all the time, and then 1 began to get uneasy and tried all kinds of baths and other remedies that were recommended for skin humOrs; but 1 became worse all the time. My hair began to fall out and my scalp itched all the time.

A MURDERED GIRL
 FOUND IN 4 CANYON
CrassOms Discovery Within Two
 Miles of Santa Monica.

Santa Monica, Aug. s.-Absolute mystery envelops the circumstances of the murder of a young woman whose body was found in a sitting posture in the dense underbrush of Temescal canyon two miles north of Santa Mon ica, yesterday. A bullet hole in the left temple, and also in the right temple where the missile came out, shows the cause of death. The body was badly decOmposed and the features were un- recognizable. The body was sitting up and the hands folded in the lap. Two front upper teeth and two lower teeth are missing. It is believed that the murderer knocked them out to prevent identification. They were possibly crowned or filled. one upper tooth on the right side is gold filled. From ap- pearances, the girl was about 25 years old. She was stylishly and expensively dressed. The hands indicate refine ment.
 Detectives are securing the vicinity hunting for clues. They believe the woman was killed along the beach and brought up the canyon in an auto or
