the constant Objectionable qualities that
are covered by them.
Many variations are practiced in the
making of malts and of beers. Neither
malt nor beer can therefore be held to
any close standard of content as to its
alcohol, glucose, dextrins, gum, caramel
and salts Of the two, malt is more
carelessly made, keeps poorly and must
find early sale.
''Digesto Malt" by the Hamm Brew
ing Company, St. Paul, widely advertised
as good for athletes, nursing mothers
having the very finest of favors," was
found by my analysis to contain, beside
3.53 percent of alcohol, the most Of
fensive putrid odor exhaling from the
distillate, the wort and the dry extract.
Spoiled grain or rotten methods were at
fault "Hamm Malt" same source and
both sold in dry town, gave out from
the distillate, wort and dry residue, the
odor of cornmeal. A small amount of
malt and much more cornmeal were used
in the making of this malt
Chemists are slow to testify that malt
is malt for fear the braumeister will
come into court and say that it is not;
since glucose has been substituted for
the small amount of malt commonly
used.
One of our brewers, and his driver
says many of the others ALSO makes two
grades of malt, one of which is true
beer
The malts and malt-extracts made by
Schlitz, Pabst, Gund, Wyeth, Schuester,
Hoff and many more, are each virtually
beer.
"Krug's Life Malt" sold in Tabor,
Iowa, dry town, was found to contain
in four samples the following amounts
of alcohol respectively-5.75 percent, SIS
percent, 1923 percent and 64s percent
Fifteen analyses made by me accord
with larger number by Mr. A. d.
Meads, city chemist Since many of
these are of same brands and some are
duplicates I draw from the two sources
the following figures:
Seventeen beers from eight makers
average 4.52 percent of ALCOHOL ranging
from 3.37 percent to 5.51 percent. A
large number of European findings aver
age 4.16 percent
Forty eight samples of malt average
Excluding all so-called malts that really
were beers) 2.31 percent alcohol. Of
these were over percent, Is were un-

percent Not included in this but yet
sold as malt were z samples ranging
from 3,S percent to AZ percent alcohol

SHIPS IN COLLISION.
Five Hundred Passengers Luckily Es-
cape Watery Grave in New
York Harbor.

York Harbor.
New York, Nov. 23.-The lives of
more than 500 persons were imperiled
Sunday when the fruit steamer Admiral
Dewey, inward bound from Jamaica,
crashed into the steamer Mount Desert,
outward bound, from Bay Ridge for the
fishing bands The Admiral Dewey
coming suddenly out of fog, struck
the Mount Desert almost amidships,-
opening cash in the fishing vessel that
extended from the upper deck to the
waters edge.
There were $50 passengers, including
20 women and some children, on the
Mount Desert, and the Admiral Dewey
carried As passengers. In addition there
were the crews of the two steamers.
There was panic, and it was due
to the prompt action of Captain David
son of the Admiral Dewey that the
passengers did not rush over the guard
rails of that vessel and leap for the
deck of the Admiral Dewey.
Had the captain backed his steamer
away many of the passengers would
have fallen into the water. Instead,
he kept his vessel moving slowly ahead,
and this held the PROV into the rent
that had been made and afforded a
boarding place for the frightened pass
engers from the Mount Desert.
Thus, the two steamers moved slowly
toward the east bank of the lower bay,
while wild scramble was taking place
on the decks.
1t was thought the Mount Desert
would sink, and the passengers fought
Practically to get to the deck of the
Admiral Dewey. A number of persons
were slightly injured in the stampede
Men and women climbed over the guard
rails to the Admiral Dewey so rapidly
that they trampel upon one another.
In the space of IS minutes fully $50
passengers on the Mount Desert sprang
to the deck Of the other. The Admiral
Dewey drew more water than the other,
and Captain Davidson discovered that
the keel Of his steamer was sticking to
the bottom. By this time nearly all the
passengers of the Mount Desert had
been transferred and the panic was sub
siding, so Captain Davidson signaled &c
have the engines stopped and q few
, minutes later the boats drifted apart

tract from the address of
Fred Floed at the Jackson
Day celebration in the city
Of Weiser, Wednesday ev-
ening, January Sth, 1908 !:
1t was my great good
fortune to be one of the
children in the family in
which General Joseph Lane
spent the declining years of
his life and when | recall
that he was born in 1901,
when Jefferson was serving
his first year in the presi-
dency, was sent to the In
diana legislature in 1922,
and served continuously
therein until he went to the
Mexican war, then became
first territorial governor of
