JAW IS broken
N A FIGHT
At chiefton, Where Italians Drink
Beer and Hold Ca
rousals.

A fight among some Italians at
chiefton Sunday night. eliminating
from a celebration in which much
beer was consumed. resulted in one
man, Salvatore Becoch. having his
jaw broken by a bullet. Becoch Is
at the ook hospital at Fairmont be-
ing treated for his injury.
Becoch's friends intimated that
there was considerable doings in a
small house not far from the coal
tipple at Chiefton and from what he
said It is hoped to establish case
that will break up illegal selling OF
liquor in that town. which has been
the indirect cause of several recent
shooting ARRAYS.
Particulars of Sunday nights
trouble are lacking, but It seems that
a number of Italians were drinking
and carousing in small house near
the railroad tracks when the two men
got into a nargument which resulted
in Becoch being plugged fairly in
the mouth.

Of London, II at any time meat Is not
available. bread. sugar and eggs will
make "a very respectable support for
the body" Sugar is an exceedingly
valuable article Of food as a source OF
energy. the unfortunate thing about II
being that It contains no heterogeneous
matter. Bread. however. does contain
some; hence It balances up well when
combined with sugar. In times Of
scarcity OF food bread and molasses Is
not half bad diet-at least It can be
relied on to keep the body up to fair
state OF efficiency.
