ADOLPHUS BUSCH FOR

Against Every Resort Shown to

Adolphus Busch Endorsed the
statement OF his son, August A
Busch, vice.president oithe Anheuser'
Busch brewery, In regard TO the with
drswal OF support OF the brewery
from saloons or clubs which violate
she law. or which are OF doubtful
character. Mr.. Busch believes that
the surest preventative OF the spread
OF prohibition sentiment is in the
proper regulation OF saloons and
stric. compliance with the law. Mr..
Busch says:

Ioke is on the Scientists.

New York, Dec. 2.-Three strange
geese have taken up their habitation
In the swamp pond near Central
park and have interested wise natur.
slis.s of this city. "Snow geese" ID
the parks official name for them
Snow geese are plentiful In the frozen
North. Few have been captured, as
they are wary Of traps. The Central
park triplets are squat, unlovely
creatures, and their wings are tipped
with black.
Prof. Miller, who assists Prof AL
len In she pathological depar tment
Of the museum OF natural history,
visited the three geese. Prot. Miller
said
These are snow geese, native
Arctics. Sometimes they migrate az
far South as the Carolinas. They
are unusual In captivity. They are
not as rare as the Labrador duck
and the great AUX"
While these geese are engaging the
serious attention Of scientists W. E
D. Stokes looks upon the "snow
geese" as a fine hoax. Mr.. Stokes
said:

Central park myself. l wanted to
see how much they would interest

A Communication to the
Anti-SaIoon Supporters.

Citizens OF the fair county OF Bates,
1t Is you to what this appeal is made
with a hope that the result of the
campaign now being waged for So
briefly and good citizenship may be
pronounced as possible at the coming
local option election.
Think OF the sorrow, the poverty
and the crimes for which the liquor
traffic stands responsible. Shall we
perpetuate this giant evil, or shall
we assert ourselves as men worthy
Of the name, and not only vote, but
use our influence Alright?
The emissaries OF this evil are &C.
tive and will spend vast sums Of
money that they may continue to
prey upon our boys. Fathers, de.
ceive not yourselves by thinking your
boy is safe, for no boy is safe while
these dens OF vice exist. Mothers,
remember that while happiness may
reign In your home, that there ID
many a home where sorrow dwells.
More homes are sad today because
OF drink than from all other causes
combined.
We shall request that all the minis.
ters in the county preach q sermon
before the election, In which special
attention Is called to the election
and our duty as citizens emphasized
and all voters urged to vote, and tc
cast q ballot which will not occasion
regret In alter years.
