provisions, old labels u ay be used on
adulterated foods until October /,
1907, but there must also be "a
''sticker'' naming all the ingredients
of the package. This sticker must
tell the absolute truth about the con
tents of the packag or can. II the

lea this fact must be plainly stated.
II the "maple" syrup is made Of corn,
the additional sticker must proclaim
the deception. Deyiled meats, spices.
everything must be true tn name or,
il the packages are old must bear the
supplemental stickers.
The retail merchant will be respon-
sible for the purity Of the goods be
offers for sale. The manufacturer
and the wholesale dealer must also
guarantee the purity Of the contents
uf each package affected by the new
law. II is expected that the manu-
tacturer viii use great care. hs ~

ages condemned.
These provisions apply, Of course,
To articles Of food which are made in

Investigation proved this to be false;
but a closer inspection revealed the
fact that it is capable of reproducing
the presents of the stork, or any other
material thing on earth, for that
matter.
= Tie package was brought into the
office, carefully inspected and more
carefully opened, for some of the
boys suggested that it might be a
bomb or other internal machine.
Slowly and cautiously the wrappings
we're removed and the anxiety depict
ed on the faces of those who witness

as the fact that it could be used in
taking shots at people dawned upon
their mind. The covering having
been removed and contents examined,
the inventory showed one Brownie"

and a number of groupe photographs
of feminine beauty, wearing smiles
that would make the saints weep for
joy when gazing on their benign
eountenancs. Then there was anoth-

and number 80, east bound collided
headlong between Boland and Alta

80 persons and injuring 40 more.
Owing to some mistake in orders both
engineers proceeded along the line,
each with the idea that he had the
right of way. When the collision
occurred both trains were running at
a high rate of speed, and the trains
were piled together and spllntered to

there was a scene of horrible destruc.
tion with the cries of the injured and
dying calling for relief and rescue
from the flames. Two baggage cars,
heavily laden, two chair cars and one
tourist sleeper were broken as by a
mighty hand and were burned TO
ashes. But ten bodies have been re
covered, being identified as nine
Mexican workmen and one American,

After playing with Herman for eight
rounds, the champion landed full
right swing on the point Of Herman's
jaw, and Chicago's favorite fighter

1t was apparent from the start that
Herman had no chance. Cans block
ed his blows with the greatest of ease
and at no time was Cans worried in
the least. In the first round Joe
started TO feel things out. Herman
was willing to fight, but the champion
stalled him of. In the second round
Cans started to open up. The kids
attempt at landing all ended In
failure.
Cans blocked Herman's leads with
glove and elbow, and when the OPP
portunity presented itself shot right
and left jolts to his opponents face.
The third and fourth rounds we're re-
petitions of the second.
1t was pain to be seen that Her
nina, the short ender, the "under

crowd. When the kid landed a blow
the crowd cheered wildly. Cans drew
only moderate applause when he
fought his oleverest. In the tifth
round Cans, having measured his
man, slowed down. This was the
only round where Herman made ny
showing. The kid waded in and
swung hard rights and lefts at the
champion. Cans appeared careless
and a number Of the blows landed,
The crowd cheered madly for the
Chicagoan at the end Of the round.

While speaking of his success in a
recent interview, Mr.. Cooper said: II

who could produce formula that
