WHISKY WAS DOCTORED.
Jury Brings in Verdict Against Cor.
bin 6 Co.

Cincinnati. April ia jury in the
district court here brought in a
against W. H. Corbin & Co, whisky
dealers of this city, charged with add
ing spirits to whisky in barrels after
they had been stamped by internal
revenue officers.
: The government rested its case on
the accuracy and efficiency of the
chemical test to prove whisky adul-
iteration and the defense rested it's
case entirely on the theory that
chemical analysis and chemical tests
are unable to prove adulteration of
whisky or the addition of spirits.
Attorney Levi Cooke of Washing
ton, who conducted the defense in
behalf of the whisky interests, said
that if the verdict was permitted to
stand there was nothing to deter the
government agents from Selling wills
ky everywhere and at all times. He
will file a motion for new trial and
for an arrest Of judgment.

RAILROADED TO PRISON.
Two Innocent Men Have Been Shut
Up "a Years.

Minneapolis, April 1.-Two men.
now declared innocent of any crime,
who have already served thirty-four
years each of life terms for murder
in the Minnesota penitentiary, may
secure tardy justice as result of the
newly awakened conscience of a man
who aided in tricking them into ac-
cepting the grave penalty. r. l..
Underhill and George Washington,
negroes, are the victims who have
spent the best years of their lives in
the awful monotony of prison and who
may now gain liberty and re-enter a
world strangely changed since the
gates closed on them in 1875.
1t is said that the man who admits
his guilt in railroading the men to the
penitentiary has already appeared be-
fore the state pardon board with a
plea for their release, declaring that
he has worried for "a years over the
unjust sentence.

Chicago, April 15.-There was heavy
buying of wheat by shorts and inves-
tors yesterday. New high prices were
established and this too in the face of
one of the heaviest selling movements
ever witnessed in the Chicago market.
1t may be said that the world at large
is in control of wheat instead of Pat
ten. The latter has been large owner
of the May future but he is getting
out of that month as well as some of
his other holdings as rapidly as possible
without putting too much pressure on
the market.

But the Master Bakers Association

New York. April 15.-Master bakers
in New York have reached no decis-

possibility of reducing the size of the
loaves of bread as a result of the So

ment has been taken by the Master
Bakers association. The association

PR0CT0R'S HAS AN EXCELLENT
~WARM-WEATHER ENTERTAINMENT

1t Is seldom that a more entertaining
summer bill has been offered at Proc
tors Theatre thar the one there this
week. Last nights audience forgot the
heat In the enjoyment of a well-varied
group of s~pecialties, each of which
ranked high in it's class.
The "Phantastic Phantoms," a Ned
Wayburn creation, deserved it's place
at the read of the bill. 1t is a col
lection of clever dances, presented in a
novel name by two men and five
girls. Much Of the unusualness OF the
act lies in the lighting Inc dressing of
1t, and 1T was well managed in both
particulars. The introduction, show
ing the dancing skeletons, is especially
remarkable for novelty.
Ben WEIGH distributed large quanti-
ties Of mirth in his monologue. He had
some new material, and 1t was GER
taihly funny. His italian impersona-
ton would make more of a hit If he
would play up Its comedy possibilities
rather than try to wiring pathos from it.
Dramatic thrills were produced in a
one-act melodrama, "Ths OPERATOR"
which, though borrowed in idea from
1.-THE Flag Station" is replete with
stirring possibilities. which were not so
completely realized in the acting as
they might have been. The male mem
Der of the company of two did very
well, however. The sketch has been

Guiding the manipulation of five hats
with hands, feet and head, was per-
formed by De Lisle. The Four Lukens
did skilful trapeze work, n the rest
Of the program was good.

{. Crowds of amusement seekers who

warded by a capital bill.
Nine. Marantette's string of high
jumping and high school horses is the
principal attraction o the program.
st. Patrick, a high jumping horse that
is said to be the holder of the worlds
record at clearing he bars, is attract
ing much attention by his perform
ances. At each exhibition the horse
jumps about seven feet, but it has
gone, it is claimed seven feet, ten and
one-quarter inches Nine. M~arantette
has a standing offer of 81. 900 to be
wagered on st. Patrick against any

school horses are Geronimo, h only
horse of that kind that does its tricks
while hitched to a buggy, and Sun

There is also high-class vaudeville and

SOME PECULIARITIES
OF THE TONGUE.

Some remarkable facts regarding the
tongue nave been recently presented by
the eminent surgeon, DR.. E. Souchon,
of New Orleans. The doctor, after stat
ing hat the tongue, the nose and the
skin are the only organs of special
sense which perform other functions,
remarks that the tongue is the only
organ except the heart which presents
a base, a body and an apex, is the only
organ which can be protruded out of
the cavity in which IL is contained, and
that nc other organ can assume such
a variety of shapes or is so movable.
It's papillae, though similar to those of
other mucous membranes. are larger
and more specially developed, and
