FAT IN FOODS.
Uses of Grease in the Upkeep Of
the Body.

FROM the London Chronicle.
All psychologists are agreed that a GER
tain quality of fat is a daily necessity
for the healthy upkeep of the body. Not
only is fat itself an energy-producing
food-that is, through its combustion act
ing as fuel to the living engine-but it
appears to play very definite part in
assisting the assimilation of other articles
of diet. Fat is also required as a bed
Ding to certain organs whereof the eys
and the kidney are examples. SO that =
is an item in the daily menu the absence
or which. or the supply Of a too limited
quantity of which, implies a serious dis
turbance of the bodily functions.
Fat formation in the body. however. is
not to be regarded as mere accretion or
addition of the fat we consume to the it's
sues of the frame. On the contrary, far.
like every other food has to undergo di-
gestion and to be assimilated and 50 APP
piled TO the body's wants. A great physi-
ologist remarks that nothing Is more
tain than that fat can be formed in ths
body from that which is not fat. He is
thinking here of starch and sugar. which
closely resemble fat in their chemical
composition. and of the work of the liver

foods into fat.

BEATING THE BANK CASHIER
CoUNTERFEITS SELDOM GET BY
HIS EAGLE EYE.
Some of the Tricks Rogues Employ
to Abstract Money From the
Vaults-Ways Of the Forger.
From London Tit Bits.

From London Tit-Bits.
The affable gentleman who hands you
out notes or gold in exchange for your
check is the mark of sharks and swim
dlers of all descriptions. The possibilities
offered by successful fraud upon him
are great. and the risks on the whole
are less than have to be faced in many
other fields of crime
Dodges innumerable have been worked
for his especial benefit, but the very dan
gers of his calling make him wary, and
lie is not easily had. That favorite de-
vice of petty thieves, for example, called
ringing the changes" which SO often de-
ceves the shopman or the publican, sell
dom succeeds with him. He has a dis
concerting habit of completing each pay
ment as originally asked for, blandly iS
morning any changes in detail until the
end. Thus he makes each transaction
complete in itself. and it is not easy to
confuse him.
Bad money is seldom presented at "A
bank, unless undesignedly, by those who
have been themselves deceived. 1t is eX-
traordinary how quickly a cashier can
detect one bad coin among number of
good ones. The slightest difference in APP
pearance. size or even weight is often
sufficient to catch his attention. 1t is not
because he mas ndu SO much experience
OF bad coins, but because he is so accus-
toned TO good ones, that he is quick
in noticing the difference. Gold counter
feitS are usually wrong in the weight,
while silver ones have often a suspicious
~ greasy appearance and ring badly.
Swindle Worked by a Woman.
Nevertheless, a simple swindle of a
petty nature was successfully worked for
some time at a certain bank where a
number of tellers were employed. All
of them in turn at intervals found them
selves planted with bright new farth-
ing for half-sovereign. Eventually the
! mystery vas cleared up. The fraud had
been worked by the handsome lady-cash-
Ter in big business firm. How far its
success was due to the dazzling glances
from her pretty eyes. and how far to
the fact that she usually handed over
the money at the busiest time of the
day, and when possible in bad light,
ii is hard to say.
Cashiers have sometimes TO face the
risk of robbery by fellow Officials though
these cases are extremely rare. "A Few
years ago, however. a bank clerk left
suddenly for America, under circum-
stances which his friends endeavOred to
hush up as much Is possible. He had
been detected in the act of fishing. with
string and a bent pin. bundle of notes
out OF cashiers box during the latter S
absence. A long term of imprisonment
would have been a fitting reward for this
traitorous act but the bank where it &C.

it advisable to let the offender go rather
than face publicity. 1t is to be feared
that banks which tempt their employees 10

Smokeless Coal.
IN the London Chronicle.

From the London Chronicle
The Welsh coal industry, which is
threatened, may be said to date from
the passing of the London smoke act, in
1929, which caused a demand for smoke
less coal in the metropolis. 1t was ru-
mored on the coal exchange that such
coal was to be found in Wales, and two
dealers sailed in sloop from London to
Cardiff. with view to verifying the ru-
NOR for. although Welsh coal had been
burned TO some extent by the natives
since the thirteenth century, none had
been exported from the principality.
From Cardiff the dealers drove to
Merthyr and interviewed Mrs. Lucy Thorn
as, the owner of one of the few pits then
working in Wales. The mother of the
Welsh coal trade as she has since
come TO be called. sat in hut near the
pit, and fastened to her head was bas-
ket into which she placed the money re-
ceived for the coal. She listened some
what suspiciously TO the order for ship
load of coal. and informed the purchasers
that she would like the price to be paid
i'll gold in advance. at the rate of four
Shillings ton. This was done, and
the coal was taken on the backs of
mules to Cardiff, and eventually sold in
London for eighteen shillings a ton.

London Stone.
From the London Chronicle.

London stone. to which a reference was
made in the Office Window. is closely en-
twined with the civic history of London.
When Jack Cade led his army of Kentish
rebels through the streets of the city he
struck this stone with his sword. as a
token of London's subjugation. Mr.. Lau-
renee CONNIE. who has made the stone
an object of special study. asserts that in
the middle ages ii was invested with a
special sanctity. An oath sworn upon it
was regarded as inviolable, and from it
authoritative proclamations were issued.
In 1742 il was removed from the south
TO the north side of Cannon street. Some
years later it narrowly escaped destruc
ton as nuisance. 1t was finally placed
in it's present position through the exer-
tons of Mr.. Thomas Maiden, city

THREE ROUND BOUT
 ATTRACTS BIG CROWD
A Boxing Match Was Held on Wash inston Street Yesterday in Spite of Territorial Laws to the Contrary.

There was a three- round boxing match on Washington street yesterday that made the Sullivan Kilrain bouts look like bum two-bit piece with a hole in 1t.
 r Although prize fighting. like certain other forms of amusement, has been frowned upon by various legislatures, it did not deter Frank Stewart. the foreman of the Pickrell ostrich farm, and M. Q. Cornelius, who has also been employed there. from furnishing large crowd with one of the cleverest sparring exhibitions that has been wit messed in Phoenix in many a day.
 Stewart weighed in at 165 pounds and Cornelius at 147. Although IS pounds under weight the plucky Cor nelius attempted to wrest the middle weight championship from the aggres- sive Stewart. The contest took place in front of H. A. DeihPs shoe store. The referee was A. J. Moore, the timekeep- CT, Lee Troutman.
 Round 1-Cornelius led out with his left for the face. Stewart blocked and returned with right. landing lightly on ear He followed this up with ter rife blow over the right eye, catching Cornelius as he started to duck. Cor nelius was groggy after this blow. but quickly picked up and returned with a left swing that grazed Stewards nose, drawing first blood. Both clinched. Stewards round.
 Round Stewart was the aggressor in this round. forcing Cornelius against the awning ropes. Both men clinched. Stewart trying to force the other to the ground. When the men were sep arated Cornelius landed again on Stew aret's nose which bled profusely. Cor nelius was very game in this round.
 Round 3-Stewart swung an upper Cornelius nose. He followed this up with a right swing to Cornelius fore head For the rest of the round Stew art was forced to use his left as one of the bones in his right hand was broken. One more of Stewards ter rife swings landed. completely closing Cornelius eye Another blow cut his lip but the boy was still game and came at his heavier antagonist with vigor. He swung on Stewards ear just as time was called and the fight was stopped by the referee. No de- cision.
 Both men were taken to the police station immediately after the fight. Judge Thomas placed each man under S1O bail for appearance in police court today.

ONE FAMILY CIRCLE
 WORTHY OF NOTICE
Large Rooseveltian Crop on One 4o- Acre Patch.

Mir. Rain and his wife and eleven children also a son-in-law and two other people, live on a forty-acre ranch at the south approach of the Phoenix center street bridge site. With a bridge Mir. Rain could reach the north bank at Phoenix with his family in a few minutes, should he desire to buy them shoes, etc, or obtain medical aid. How ever. to go to this point via Tempe would call for a round trip of forty miles. He can not understand why the bridge should not be placed at Center street, Phoenix, to accommodate the very large and rapidly increasing travel south side section and it the same time il would be equally convenient for the Tempe and Mesa sections, the road from the Center street bridge passing through the center of both. The song sung at the Phoenix citizens bridge meeting the other evening has a much deeper meaning to MT. Rain than to a person not strictly interested. No more we'll have to wade across, Nor founder in the sand:
 No more a toll of human lives
 The river will demand:

 May have a highway pass his door

ATHLETIC EVENTS OF THE
 A. '. p. EXPOSITION
They Will Include Aquatic Contests, Track Events and Base Ball.

Seattle, Wash, June 1.-(Special Correspondence of The Republican.)I Intercollegiate foot ball will be fea ture of the athletic program at the Alaska Yukon Pacific exposition. Va rious base ball games will be in pro gress all summer, but this is an ex pected feature just as are the track and field events which promise to see many new records hung up at Seattle. But the sight of the moleskin-c clad warriors tackling. panting and run ming with the ball is not a conventional one to the crowds visiting worlds fairs.
 The Alaska Yukon Pacific exposition has made use of the unused portion of the University of Washington campus. and it is here that the stadium has been erected. In order to play their games in time for the exposition crowds the colleges and universities Of the northwest have this year moved forward their dates for their big games.
 The stadium has a magnificent field, ideal for the game that reigns supreme in the collegiate sports. Two big otdiluS' Olit OL oihOg VIII dlAOi0 a perfect view for every one of the 10000 spectators expected to assemble to see the big games.
 Washington. Oregon, Idaho, Wash ington State college, Whitman college and Oregon Agricultural college every year battle for championship that is only won after the bitterest of strug gles. The northwest high schools are likewise noted for the style of foot ball they put up. the Broadway high school of Seattle few years ago winning from the champion ship eleven sent west from Chicago, after having cleaned up the opposing teams in the northwest and the California champions. The high schools will use the stadium field dur ing the exposition time.
 The sportsman's show of the exposi- ton will be held on the 26. 27 and 2S of August, and entries for the various events are sufficient to insure an in- teresting meet. The program cover ing the meeting has not yet been com pletely arranged. but the official events recognized by the National Associa- tion of Scientific Angling clubs of which Seattle is a member. will be:
 Distance fly casting, accuracy fly casting, delicacy and accuracy fly casting, one-half ounce distance bait casting, one-half ounce accuracy bait casting. One-quarter ounce accuracy bait casting, obstacle accuracy fly casting and distance bait casting, one quarter ounce.
 August 2S is the date announced for the handicap trap shooting match, for which two hundred entries have been received.

 AN OUTLINE OF II
What He Would Have Told the Peo
 pie Had He Been Here.

In arranging the lists of speakers for the bridge campaign meetings the Center street committee listed Gen eral A. J. Sampson among them. He was not here to speak, but did not run away from the issue, as in dicated by the following letter to B. A Fowler:
 Fl Paso, Tex, May 31. Hon. B. A. Fowler,
 Phoenix, Arizona
 My Dear Sir-I had some business calling me here and some more far ther east. Since I left, I have seen by paper that am down for a speech in favor of Center street bridge. This will have to answer in place. for I cannot return till after the dates named.
 I want to assure you that if l were with you I would bend every energy to help secure a favorable vote for said bridge I don't see how any one north of the river can fail to vote for it Some have an idea that it will increase our taxes. Very little, for a time. but the advantages secured by it will bring in so much more taxable property that in short time instead of increased taxes. our taxes will be reduced, because the per cent or rate will be lower.
 All in all. I would vote for it if knew my taxes would be increased (for the time being) three-fold, for in the end I would be the gainer. don't believe anyone north of the riv- CT will vote against it if he will thoroughly investigate the matter, and doubt not the same careful inves tigation by those living south of the river. will secure many votes in favor of Center street bridge from that section.
 If we want a greater Phoenix, if we want hundreds of new farms opened up, if We want to let the world know We are in favor of public improvements, let us. by all means. vote for this bridge. Later we will be just as zealous to. get a bridge at Tempe or over the Agua F'ria, or any place where one is needed.
