1.-The state is now in shape to make
analyses of these food samples" said
DR.. Crumbine his morning, land to
proceed with the rigid enforcement of
the law. All food sellers and whole
salers have been given ample time to
prepare themselves to obey the law.
The time limit was October 1. At the
state university they have prepared a
special laboratory for food analyses,
with two experts in charge, and a spec
iaI laboratory for the analysis of
drugs. At the State Agricultural col
lege, Prof. Willard has a special as
sistant for analytical work. and has en-
larged his laboratory facilities to take
care of this business. We will continue
taking samples of food products when
ever we have reason to believe that
there is anything wrong with the goods
on the shelves of the stores. We will
not only xamine food stuffs which are
sold as pure and unadulterated, but
we will examine the articles which are
sold under labels stating that they
contain adulerants. There are certain
adulterants which are permitted under
the law provided the label on the pack
age states exactly what the package
contains, but we must assure ourselves
that these labels are correct, and that
there are no unlawful labels being

GROCERS NOW BEWARE.
DIR. Crumbine Has His Smelling COM
mittee at Work.

Orders have been issued by DR.. S. J.
Crumbine, secretary of the state board
of health, and chief food inspector of
Kansas, for taking samples of food
products on sale in the state, to be
analysed for the purpose of seeing
whether the retail food sellers are
obeying the pure food laws.
This order will make the retail gro
GERS, butchers, and all food sellers sit
up and take notice Up to this time
no effort has been made to apply the
penalties of the law to delinQuents. In
the future, a grocer caught selling food
which does not comply with the law
is likely to be subjected to a fine or
Jail sentence.
Thirty food samples were taken yes
terday at Lawrence, and each of the
food inspectors has received instruc-
tions to take samples in whatever
town he may happen to be. The SAM
pies taken at Lawrence consisted of
hamburg steak, canned goods, jellies,
preserved fruits and jams.
Bright red hamburg steak is usual
preserved with sulfites, TO make it stay
fresh and bright. The use of preServa-
tives is contrary to law, because pre-
served food will not digest IN the hu-
man stomach. Usually when hamburg
steak is "embalmed" the work is done
by the retailer himself, and he musr
pay the penalty
Canned goods, jellies, etc. are of
course sold to the retailer by his whole
sale house. and the law protects the
retailer whenever he "a produce a
signed by his VIII olesaler.
Whenever the retailer is protected by
such a guarantee, and his goods are
found defective. the penalty is visited

CARE FOR CRIMINAL INSANE
State Board of Health Issues II,
Bulletin,

The state. .board of control has
started an agitation for the erection
or a special asylum for the care OF
erlmlnal insane. In a bulletin given
sas provide some means for taking
care OF such cases, and in discussing
the matter says:
"Too much cannot be said against
the placing of the criminal insane into
the state hospitals for the other in
sane. 1t is grossly unfair to the law
abiding and peaceful citizen whose
mind, for some reason, becomes un-
balanced to compel him to associate
and mingle with a hardened crimina,
whose mind has become effected by
reason of his life of crime and dis
sipation. Our hospitals are pushing
forward along lines of allowing the
inmates the greatest possible freedom,
doing away, as far as can be done.
With barred windows or restraint of
any kind. This system can not be
followed with safety in handling the
criminal insane. and their presence IN
our state hospitals is always a dis
turbing element. They are not salts
fed to simply make their own escape,
but endeavor to excite unrest among
the other patients and nearly always,
sooner or later escape from the insti-
tuition, sometimes taking one or more
other patients with them.
kansas should make some ar
rangement for this class and provide
for their separate care and treatment.
While there is a special ward for in
sane convicts at the penitentiary,
there is no provision made to detain
a convict there after his term of i'm
prisonment is ended, and by reason
of the inadequate facilities provided
at the present time for proper care
and treatment of insane convicts in
| this special ward, the statutes provide
for the transfer of insane convicts,
both from the penitentiary and the
Hutchinson Industrial Reformatory,
to the state hospitals for the insane"

HE WAS EATING WEEDS.
Charles White Could Find Nothing
Else to Dcvour.

Last evening the police were called 10
the Rock Island bridge to capture a
crazy man. It was reported that a very
dirty person was eating weeds, and was
therefore insane. The police captured
the person in question, who seems to
be a mild specimen of the Hobocus
Americanus, or professional t~oil-notter-
He was lunching on weeds, as adver-
tised, but it was because the and-o
trade had been slack, and he needed
some substance. to pry his stomach
loose from his backbone. Charles White,
as he gave his name, said that he was
an invalid, and had not worked for
many moons. He was so dirty that the
whites of his eyes presented the only
semblance of humanity, and he soon
proved conclusively that his hunger
was not assumed. Since his incarcera-
ton he has eaten not only his own al
lowance of food, but cleaned up the
remnants left by the rest of the prison
ers. He is bathing on the instalment
plan, and this morning had succeeded
in removing the first three crusts down
to his waist.
The jailer asked him how he was get
ting along, and he replied: II hope TIC
get my feet washed by noon. Sir, might
IL be possible for one TO acquire a shirt?
Such a garment would be quite accept
able to me at the present time"
Charles has been fined $50 for vag-
rancy. but this is a joke, and he will be
chased out of our fair city within the
week.

Fines Assessed.

The United States is asking the Rock
Island and Frisco railroads to pay
1850 in the way of fines for alleged
violations of the % hour law in suits

LET THEM COMBINE.
Seth Lows Solution of the Railroad
Problem.

Chicago, Oct. "a plea for the
passage of a law which would permit
combinations between railroads, after
the terms of their proposed agreement
had been submitted to the interstate
commission and had been
approved by that body, was made by
Seth Low, former may of New York.
in an address on National Control of
Railroads" at the Trust conference.
He believes that such agreements he
said, If perfectly understood by the
public at the time of making-made
with the authority of the public and
subject to revision by the same author-
tty in case of need-may reasonably
be expected to work in the public inter
est. 1T is the things that are done in
secret, without public knowledge. and
often h regard to the public in
terest, from which the public suffers, -
said Mr.. Low. In an like this.
when the large unit is demonstratine
its economy in everything; when the
steamships are larger than ever be-
fore; when locomotives are more pow
erful thar ever before; when every
sort of combination in is
on a scale greater than ever dreamed
of in any previous epoch; it is not only
die to suppose that the industries and
transportation systems Of the country
can be successfully conducted in small
units, but it is also manifestly to the
disadvantage of the public to try to
have them so conducted. The large
corporation has demonstrated its eff
cheney, and its economy, too strongly
to leave any for doubt that In IA
country like ours. if the people are 70
be well served. there must be large
combinations in the
service, as elsewhere. The problem Is
how to secure the benefit of such COM
binations, suffering the evils
which they are also capable of de-
veloping- The answer that has been
suggested. outside of government own

ership and operation, is governmental
control; and that control ought to be
so devised as both to permit and to
encourage combinations INT joint
agreements between railroads when
ever these are in the public interest,".
The two things that are necessary to
make such regulation effective are,
first of all, a recognition that the rail-
road service of the country is really a
part of the public service. although il
is conducted through private agencies;
and. secondly. that the object of gov
ernmental control of the private agen-
cies doing this business, is not to limit
their activities. but to make sure that
all their activities are conceived, first
and last, in the public interest. This
is really the characterization of BUSH
ness"

Just how much chance the man
who bucks the slot machine has of
winning is shown by a statement in
a circular sent out to the trade by

The following interesting bit of In

tended for general circulation but
for the trade:
Our Automatic Percentage De-
vice-The device is so arranged
that when the red or black are
played all colors on the wheel are
open, SO the wheel is just as liable
to show on large prize as it is on
small one, making the percentage
stronger on the small prizes cred
and black. But when you play
the high prizes you automatically
plug the colors you are playing.
This charming arrangement can
be adapted to any of the lovely ma

hind the machine can adjust his
percentage as strong as he likes.
