quarters on a charge Of having de-
frauded Henry Pferdekamp to the ex-

Pferdekamp told the police that
Date represented to him that he had
invented a device to attach to the
nose Of persons addicted to snoring
and which he guaranteed would COM
pletely cure them of the habit in a
few nights. He became interested, he
said, when Date gave him a few off
hand statistics as to the number Of
snorers in the United States and
pointed out how, If only one half Of
them should buy the anti-snoring
machine. there would be millions in
it for them.
Pferdekamp says he invested $500
and was to receive half the profits Of
the snore silencer. He says Date

Date told the detectives when he

Secretary Ballinger were submitted

opinion on the merits of the case. The
controversy was really begun by For

sites. Heretofore these Withdrawals
had been made without question. In
accordance with the new policy he
has inaugurated Secretary Ballinger
refused to grant the request. Wilson

EXPERTS DIFFER AS TO
USE OF PRESERVATIVES

Washington. - Manufacturers of
food products may use preservatives.
but the housewife is cautioned not to
use them. This is consistency. as
stated by the department of agricul-
ture.
Under the pure food law, after thor
ough investigation, a specially consti-
tuted board of experts, known as the
Remsen board, advised the secretary
of agriculture that the use of BEN
zoate of soda, one of the most COM
mon preservatives used by manufac.
turers of food products, is not deleter-
ious to health. and after a hard strug-
gle against the use of preserving pow
ders. the department of agriculture
was reluctantly forced to yield TO the
conclusions of its own board.
Notwithstanding the official atti-
tude of the government on the use of
preservatives a bulletin of the de-
partment of agriculture has just been
issued, addressed to the housewives
of the country in which warning is
sounded against the practice of re-
sorting to preservatives in the can
ming and preserving at home of fduits
and vegetables.

sVANBERG, THE SWEDE.
WINS WORLDS MARATHON

Chicago.-The worlds Marathon
laurels Saturday afternoon passed
from France to Sweden, as they had
passed from Italy to France and from
America to Italy.
John Svanberg, the Swedish cham
pion, ran away from the field in the
second international Marathon race
at the White Sox baseball park. fin
ishing four laps ahead of little John
ny Hayes, Fred Appleby, the English
man, was third. Svanberg's time,
2:4S:11 1-5, is several minutes behind
the record.
Henri st. Yves, the French cham
pion and Tom Longboat both quit
when the race was little more than
half run Longboat left the track dur
ing the fifteenth mile. In the sly
teenth mile st. Yves. who was lead
ing the bunch by three laps at the
time, collapsed and was dragged from
the track by his trainers. He had de-
veloped a foot blister that made it
impossible for him to continue the
race.
Svanberg gave a fine exhibition of
distance running. Keeping well with
in himself until the finish, just to show
he had plenty Of reserve strength
Svanberg sprinted the final 800 yards
and breasted the tape going strong.
st. Yves right at the outset started
in to duplicate his performance in
New York several weeks ago. At the
end of the sixth mile he was burning
up the track and was comfortable
margin ahead of his New York rec
ord.
When st. Yves quit, the Swede
jumped into the lead and never lost
1t. Maloney was fourth, Simpson
fifth, and Thibleau sixth, more than
two miles behind the winner.

Catch S5-Pound Salmon With Hook.

Grants Pass, Ore.-A beautiful S5
pound specimen of salmon was
caught with hook and line yesterday
morning by Joe Wharton, a local
sportsman, who used a six-ounce fly
rod with No. l brass spinner. Many
fancy catches are made each year in
Rogue river, but it is believed that
this is the largest one ever caught in
this manner. In its mad pursuit to
snap the line the salmon churned the
waters Of Rogue river from the White
Rock ripples, opposite City park, to
the foot of Sixth street, where it was
landed after an eexciting chase down
stream.
