new ALCOHOL
REGULATIONS

WASHINGTON, July 3O.-Amended
been issued by the commissioner of in
ternal revenue, to take place Septem-
Der |. Under the new regulations, in
addition to denatured warehouses ON
distillery premises, central denaturing
warehouses may be constructed at
such points as business may require.
and alcohol may be transferred from
denaturng warehouses by means of
tanks or tank ears by consumers.
Manufacturers using completely de-
natured alcohol are not required to
swear to application for a permit and
permit, when secured, continues In
force until revoked, and retail dealers
in denatured alcohol are not required
to keep a record of any kind.
Industrial or farm distilleries may
produce alcohol from anything that
contains fermentable matter. At these
distilleries one room MAJ be used IS
a combined cisterd, distiliery ware
house and denatured warehouse.
Industrial distilleries are divided in
to two classes. In the first class arc
placed distilleres of a surveyed capac-
ity of SO proof gallons or less of spir-
it's or less in "a hours. At such distil-
leries storekeepers' gaugers are not
regularly assigned until the collector
certifes that in his opinion the pres
ence of an officer at any particular
distillery is necessary
Distilleries of the second class are
those that produce more than SO gall
Ions of distilled spirits daily. At dis
tilleries of this class an officer will be
regularly assigned unless the collector
certifies that the distillery can safely
operate without one.
Proprietors Of Industrial dstilleries
and manufacturers recovering alcohol
into manufactured processes where but
small quantity of alcohol is dena-
tured are not required to provide them
selves with denaturing material rooms
but may procure approved authorized
denaturants either from central dena-
turing warehouses or from distilleries

BRIEFLY TOLD

William D. Haywood has been secre-
'ary-treasurer Of the Western Fedora
'loh OF Miners little more than six
years, being elected in June, 1901. He
draws a salary of $3.50 a month and
was reelected at the recent conven-
ton of miners in Denver. An acting
secretary treasurer attends to the rou-
tine work. Haywood Joined the West
ern Federation Of Miners in 1896. He
was elected to the executive board in
1900.
Haywood was born in Salt Lake
City in 1859, and therefore is SO years
old. His father was a native of Ohio.
His mother was the daughter Of an
English army officer. She was born In
South Africa.
At the age Of 9 Haywood began
working around the mines, getting
most Of his early training at Silver

dentally stuck knife blade into one

STEAD SCORES
PEACE ENJOYS

LONDON, July 30.-William T.
Stead, editor of the Review of Reviews,
who has been conducting a publication
at The Hague, devoted to peace con-
ference matters when interviewed yes
terday on the progress of the peace
conference, delivered a serious indict-
ment against the British delegates. He
said:
Until last Saturday, when under the
pressure of angry protests the British
government instructed its delegates to
make a belated declaration of adhesion
to the American plan OF obligatory ar
bitration, the British delegation had
done nothing for peace, nothing for
arbitration, nothing, in short, for any
thing the British people believed they
had been sent to The Hague to do.
Their action, and still more, their
inaction, has been the amazement and
despair of all friends of peace. I do
that as far as every principal the Brit
ish government Is supposed to have at
heart is concerned, it would have been
far better to have had no delegates at
all than the men who have shown skep-
ticism where they ought to have shown
enthusiasm; who have repealed where
they ought to have attracted; who have
been a wet blanket upon every aspira-
ton of the peace crusaders, and who
have succeeded in utterly destroying
England's reputation as the leader of
the peace, loving nations of the world.
LAS members of the conference striv-
ing for peace ideals they are about the
most incompetent set of being that
ever achieved an unmitigated failure"
Continuing, Mr.. Stead said:
Great Britain, having abdicated her
traditional position, the leadership has
fallen into the hands of Germany and
the United States and we have taught
the Americans that the Germans are
warmer friends and stouter allies than
the British"

Three MILE
FOR BOAT RACE

NEW YORK, July 30.-As was to
have been expected, the advocates of
three instead of four mile boat race
at Poughkeepsie and New London have
again come to the front and would
have these annual races shortened.
Among rowing men they have very
little support, though Coach Courtney
of Cornell has frequently been quoted
as declaring four-mile contest too
great tax on the athletes. The other
coaches have usually expressed them
selves as satisfied with the present
distance.
AS matter of fact there is good
argument in favor of the three mile
course. Everybody knows that the
real race usually occurs in the last
mile. For, the first three the crews are
content to merely hold the pace and to
squirt as much as possible over the last
mile. This makes test of endurance
and robs the first three miles of all it's
racing features.

Heart Protectors.

philadelphia Rrcurd
Many persons are puzzled to know
why policemen wear their badges so
low ON the coats instead of on the
flap made for that purpose. As 4 mat
tor of fact, the badge, or star, as he
calls il, of many a policeman is right
next to his heart. Some Of the blue
coats can thank their "$tars' Cor be-
ing alive. This little metal shield has
dctlccted the bullet Of burglar or
highwayman. and at times. too. has
stopped the knife thrust Of woud-bc
assassinS. During the last twenty or
thirty years there are many eases on
record showing that the little badge
has been a life saver. Even bullets
fired at close range. as rule cannot
penetrate the shield. That S why q
bmccoat always feels safer in keep,
ing the tar at vital spot. When off
duty some policemen wear their stars
on their vests, but always directly
over the heart. They are so accustom
ed to the little protector that they
feel uneasy without it.

Mrs. Annette Koesting, of No. 289
Grove street, Williamsburg, whose
recovery from lockjaw, the third cure
on record and the first in this coun-
try, was told about in yesterday g
Tribune, will be discharged probably
today from the Williamsburg Hos
pital, where she was taken Il month
ago, apparently dying.
Mrs. Koesting ran rusty nail in
to ner left arm while attempting to
close window. She paid no attcn-
tion to the wound until week later,
when her arm suddenly swelled to
twice its natural size. Tctanus pois-
oning had fully developed in that
time and when she sent for her ply
sician he could do nothing for her.
When Mrs. Kocsting was taken to
the hospital she was suffering great
agony The physicians found that
her jaws had become firmly locked
and the ease had reached its last
stages. DIR. Benedict Vogt. the house
surgeon, Immediately sent for Profs.
Butler and Malamcnt, visiting sur
gcons Of the hospital and they decid-
ed that hcr onl Y chance to live was
to undergo the tctanus antitoxin
treatment. A double hypodcrmic in
lection of the serum was administer
ed. Her jaws had become so tightly
locked that it was necessary to re-
move one Of her teeth so she could
be fed liquid food. Although she
had been treated by her family phy-
stefan and two physicians Of the
health department the week previous
to her entering the hospital, the medi- ,
cine they used evidently had no cf-
feet. After week Of their treat
ment, using the antitoxin serum WITH
no success, they gave it up as useless
and recommended her to the hospital. ,
The first days treatment at the !
hospital consisted Of four injections .
of the fluid and the next day the ply
sicians were surprised to see that her :
condition was no worse. The patient s :
temperature, respiration and color ,
were gradually returning 10 their .
noraml condition. The next day only
two injections of the serum were
made and the third day she showed
more Improvement.
This treatment was kept up for a
week, and at the end Of that time DR..
Vogt found that she was able to open
her jaw nearly II quarter OF an inch.
This being the first sign Of cure. the
physicians Informed Drs. Butler and
Malamcnt again. Two days later she
was able to open her jaws nearly an
inch. The swcllin" due from the poiS-
on was gradually disappearing The
following week the patient was able
to take food and improved rapidly cv-
cry day.
The physicians reduced the guam
titv "f serum every day for two
weeks until her jaws could be opened
She was soon able to ci,rw meats and
other solid food with case. Three days
ago the patirn, sat up and was soon
able to walk around the wards of
the hospital. She has recovered so
fully that she is now pronounced al
most cured.
The hospital physicians said yes
