SAFE BREAKERS AT

Came and Went in Automobile, as Did
 Postoffiee Burglars.

A telephone message was received at the Taftville postoffice Wednesday morning from the Attawaugan mills. the office of which was broken into by burglars about 11.30 Tuesday night, the safe doors blown off, and between s400 and $500 taken. As it is said the Attawaugan safe breakers numbered three and came and went in an auto mobile. it brought to the minds of the mill officers the recent break at the Taftville postoffice. Assistant Post master George w. Weller told them what he could of the methods of the men who entered the postoffice and there seemed to be a similarity. There was no clue to the Attawaugan bur glars. although an automobile contain ing three men had been previously seen in that vicinity.

lALlsTs AND DIVIDING FEE,
CALLED AS GRAFT BY
PROMINENT DOCTOR.

Atlantic City. N. j.. June - The
payment Of commissions by specialists
to general practitioners who cali spec

characterized as graft pure and simple
by DR.. e. Gard Edwards Of Jajunta
Col, today before the American Acad-
emy Of Medicine.
The matter Of fee splitting was thf
subject Of DIR. Edwards address, and
he fiayed medical men. who he claimed
are making regular practice of divid-
ing high fees demanded BY specialists
DIR Edwards also condemned the &C
ton OF many specialists who perform
ed operations and then leave the pa
tients under the care of a local prac-
titI0ner, who receives the blame Il
they die and none Of the credit if they
live"

Charles Mccartney, Men>sr Of Notorious
Gang Of Bandits, Pslpetrator Of the Crime
U. S. Marshal Shea and Deputy Stout
Unravel Mystery that Puzzled Northwest

Coroner Vincent Of Moorhead show
that Grace Burns, age IS, daughter of
riIda J. Burns, 96 Front street, dis
appeared June Fl, 1907, and met her
death at the hands of some unknown
party, by being struck on the head and
other parts of the body, with an in
strument, her body then being thrown
in the river from which it was taken
three days later.
The police Of the two cities, the
sheriffs and detectives from the cities
worked on the case, but nothing was
ever accomplished. The girl had been
seen in company with young men,
who at once were suspected.
IL is believed that even If it were
desired to bring Mccartney to trial at
once, that il would be impossible to
bring him into the jurisdiction of the
state courts, on account Of the fact
that he is now serving time in the
federal penitentiary. Mccartney was
convicted at the last December term
Of the United States court held in
Fargo and on Dec. 80, 1908 was sem
fenced TO serve two years in the fed
oral penitentitry and pay fine Of 500,
fln default Of which anotgfef thirty
days Is added. This term of twenty
five months in all, can be reduced by
Mccartney by good behavior, making
the time for his release Aug. 8, 1910.
John Shea, eldest son of United
States Marshal Shea, has rendered
valuable assistance during the past
few weeks In obtaining some very inn
Portant evidence against Mccartney.

President Taft Learns What
Lawful Term Means
UNDER PURE FOOD STATUTE
SOLICITOR GENERAL BOWERS
SAYS PUBLIC DON'T CONSIDER
THAT "DoPE" CAN MAKE BOOZE
OUT OF SOMETHING OTHER
THAN WHISKY.

Washington, D. c., June Lloyd
w Bowers, solicitor general of the
United States, today submitted to
President Taft his opinion as to what
the term whisky" means in law. In
effect Solicitor General Bowers holds
after discussing at great length what
the term whisky" meant at the time
of the passage of the pure food law,
that the public does not consider that
added coloring or f1avoring matter can
make whisky out of what otherwise is
not whisky. Whisky is regarded gem
orally and naturally as having flavor
and properties of its own.
coloring Can't Transform.
There is no more reason for saying
that alcohol becomes whisky because
colored and favored like some true
whisky than for saying that alcohol
becomes brandy because colored or
favored like some brandy"
He says "On the other hand more
addition of harmless coloring or
f1ayoring matter to what is previously
whisky does not destroy its whisky
character unless such addition unduly
dilutes or otherwise affects the essen
tial properties of whisky"
