TWENTY PER CENT OF CITY'S MILK
 IS UNDER GRADE
Inspector Knapp Reports That 12 of 60 Specimens Examined Were Poor, and Four Had
 Been Skinned, or Watered
Contract For Garbage Disposal May be Signed at Meeting To- morrow Afternoon-Six Sites to be Considered

After a long exhaustive session with President Wheelwright of the Ameri- can Extractor Go. and Expert Feath- erstone and City Attorney Cullinan representing the city's interests, the
 board of health came to an adjourn ment at midnight last night until to-
 morrow at p. nl., when it is expect
 ed definite action may be taken to- wards signing the garbage contract re- subject to the completion of plans and the selection of a site for the pro- posed reduction plant.
 MT. Wheelwright and the expert discussed plans for the proposed plant at. some length and the experts sug- gestion of charges met with ready ac- ceptance on the part of the contrac- tor. But the principal hitch was over the site for the enterprise. The board fears to indicate any site under contemplation until it has been secur- ed, for fear of litigation should an intimation be made of where the gar baga is about to be reduced. MT. WheelWright admitted last night that in his scurrying about to raise funds for the plant he had been obliged to allow his options on sites in this city to expire. H
 A raft of complaints and reports occupied the attention of the board the matter of garbage disposal. In- spector Lynch had his usual reports to make relative to nuisances. Among the complaint was one from County Health Officer George B. Hill. relative to the pollution of Bruce's Brook by drainage from the Weidlich Co.'s plant in the East End This was re- ferred to the Common Council, with recommendation that sewer connection be established. The cleaning up of the Henry street basin is promised as result of the complaint of the Locornobile Co.
 pr. Mcclellan, the health officer. re- ported 116 deaths for August, and sev- en cases of typhoid fever Five of these he said had their origin outside the city and the other two were Of unknown origin. Milk and Meat h. speetera Knapp reported 12 out of 50 samples of milk below the standard. four of them because they had been watered or skinned.
 Sanitary Inspector Lynch reported. investigation of 14S complaints, result ing in the cleaning out of 51 cellars, and the instauation of 13 closets for sinks. and IT garbage cans. Though the figures for garbage collection show 3 constantly increasing tonnage, 57 complaints. were received of failure to collect the refuse.

Odd Shaving Habits.

It is saidS har of men who shave themselves not one in fifty can use the razor with n0tli hands. and to this may be added other curious facts about the shaving habits of the aver age man.
 There is the president of trust company in New York who. he tells his friends. always stlaves himself standing ia a corner of the room and facing Iile wall. He was poor coun- try boy and, like most boys. bought razor on the sly. There was no mir TOT in his bedroom and, rather than let his people know what he was about he faced the wall and scraped away by sense of feeling Once accustomed to this method he never needed glass.
 There is United States senator, formerly farmer. who for many years shaved himself sitting on milk Ing stool and looking at his reflection in a bicker of water. Thar was what he did as boy and man on the farm, and he says that he couldn't shave standing up.-New York Tribune.

Former Ruler of Persia Wants an

Berlin.-The fact the ex-Shah of
Persia interrupted his journey to
Paris to stop at Vienna, caused a
political sensation. The Viennesse
papers published long explanations of
all political reasons that might in
duce the fallen potentate to tarry at
Vienna, but the fact is that the Incl
dent has no political significance
whatsoever.
The ex-Shah, who travels with his
three favorite wives. went to Vienna
to get fourth wife. A few months
ago an Anglo-American dancing quar-
tet, the Violet girls played at a vau-
deville show in Teheran, and the
Shah ordered the dancers to give a

There he promptly fell in love with

WOMEN IN DEATH VALLEY.
Society Leaders Wrest Wealth From
Sands OF Uttered Desert.

VI DeSert,
Los Angeles.-Mrs. Beatrice Hub
bell Plummer, sister of Mrs. Cynthia
Westover. Alden, president general of
the International Sunshine Society
and Mrs Florence H. Baker were the
first women to brave the desert dan
gers of Death Valley in the attempt
t. wrest its golden treasures from its
bore-strewn sands. They have just
returned from perilous trip. About
two years ago. after listening to their
husbands discussion of the various
mining ventures they were interested
in, the two women asked almost sim
ultaneously.
'Why can't We get some of this
gold?"
The husbands laughed. They have
said since that their wives never
thought of anything but receptions,
clubs, clothes and similar things of
festive Importance to feminine minds
Messrs. Plummer and Baker said
ickingly that Death Valley was loaded
with gold. And the women announced
their intention to seek gold in Death
Valley.
"The wonder of ii all is,'' said Mrs
Plummer that we ever stood It,.
Nearly all the time the thermometer
Registered more than 119 degrees, and
in front of our little camp on the
Santa Fe road it rose and stayed at
1870 for weeks. The humidity was
low, or we would have succumbed.
Scattered over the trails amid the
rocks and sands of Death Valley are
vast treasures for the fortune pros
pector. We were lucky, for many,
many lives have been sacrificed in the
effort to cause the desert to give up
its riches"
Mrs. Plummer and Mrs. Baker wore
throughout the trip the full accou-
terment of Western cowgirls.
Skirts of buckskin reached to just
below their knees. Strong leather
boots incased their legs and they rode
astride.
Each was armed with a revolver,
and under the tutelage of the old
guide who accompanied the party,
they rapidly became expert shots and
Ihorsewomen.
The property that these women have
acquired, it is declared by expert min
ing men. bids fair to rival the wealthy
deposits of Nevada.
