saGlt with intent to commit a
heinous crime, brought in a ver-
dict of guilty of simple assault.

Glad homes where happy children

Cool meadows deep that daisies star!
One fresh, keen memory never

TO PROBE FOOD TRUST
DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE HEARS
WHOLESALERS COMPLAINT.
Manufactures Said to Have Taken Oath
in Keeping Agreement on Scale
of Prices

WASHINGTON, ID. c., Dec. 10. -
That food trust" throughout the coun-
try has been and is conspiring to hold the
price of edibles 80 per cent. in many in
stances above what is believed to be
just, is the complaint that wholesalers
have brought to the attention of the fed
eral authorities. They charge that the
manufacturers compel them to sign
contract upholding exorbtant prices to
the retailer and because of this these
wholesalers invoke the aid of the courts
under the Sherman antitrust law.
Here Is typical contract of the kind
which the wholesalers desire to be freed
from: We promise and agree not TO
sell or cause to be sold this commodity
for less than the list price now In force,
VIZ: $50 per case, directly or indirect
~, either by rebates, commissions, allow
Ing greater than the customary dis
count mot to exceed > per cent? for
cash in ten days, allowance or advantage
of any kind whatsoever. Should any aid
vance be made in the list price we agree
to conform to the new price immediately
upon receiving the advice of the change.
we further agree that when request
ed by the company we will refuse to sell
the commodity at any price, or loan or
exchange II for other goods to any deal
er who is selling or has sold same for
less than the established price.
we further agree that when n charge
of violation of this contract shall be
made against us we will furnish the com
pany with a certificate ton forms to be
furnished to the effect that we have not
violated the provisions of this contract
in any way, which certificate shall, Mt
the request of the company, be verified
by our oath and also by the oath of the
salesman making the sale. Refusal On
our part shall be conclusive evidence
against us that the charge is true, and
we will then pay to the company, as

them to investigate.

TORPEDO WITH BRAIN.
British Admiralty Has Weapon Which
Tracks Down Sounds Beneath
Surface of Water

LONDON, Dee. IA wonderful
torpedo which picks NJ sound, and
tracks it down is reported TO he in the
hands of the British admiralty, by whom
the torpedo will be subjected soon to cX-
haustive trials. The principle of the
microphone is utilized.
The torpedo with n BRAIN" as the
new weapon has been dubbed is fitted
with Il delicate mechanism which is con
trolled by microphonc attached to the
torpedoS rudders. When the micro
phone picks up sound it defects the
rudderS i'll such Il manner as TO guide
the torpedo straight to the source Of the
sound waves. Properly aimed, So the
inventors assert, the torpedo will pick up
unfailingly the noise made by the propel-
lerS of an euemy's vessel
1t is asserted that the mechanism can
be 50 adjusted that the torpedo will
strike not ut the immediate origin of the
sound but thirty or forty yards to the
right or left of the propellers ut the will
Of the manipulation. This feature, if
proven, would make it possible to place
the torpedo in the vital part of II ship
that was steaming across the new wca-
pons' track.
