Wife Was Meat Boycotter.

The meat boycott is blamed for the
martial woes of Samuel Barrmore,
who, arraigned in Police Court at
Paterson on a charge of disorderly
conduct, told Recorder Carroll that
he had raised a rumpus because his
wife would not buy meat. My wife
is in favor of reducing meat prices"
said the prisoner, land she started
this boycott business On me in De-
cember. Since then I've lived or all
sorts of patented foods and I'm tired
of being confronted by a vegetable
garden on the table every night. I
told her I'd get a divorce unless she
gave me some meat. But she won't
listen" Sentence was suspended.

Trusting at All Times

There are impossible circumstances

constant duty and a ceaseless privil-
eye. Crises may come and crises may
be passed. but the Word of the Lord

offers Baby as Fare Surety.

While returning from Philadelphia
Mrs. George Amann, of Egg HaTbor,
had failed to observe the ten-day con-
sideration on the back of the ticket,
and was surprised when the conduc-
tor told her that it was void. She
had spent all her money shopping,
and her only available asset was a
six-months'-old baby that she carried.
The conductor demanded a guaran-
tee, and was embarrassed when she
reluctantly offered him her child,
with the request that he retain it un-
til she could procure money at home.
He finally took her address, and she
paid the money at the station.

Jail Gets Two John wilson's.

According to the warden of the
Federal prison at Atlanta, there is
likely to be some trouble when John
Wilson gets there from Trenton. VIII
son Is a negro, who pleaded non vult
in the United States District Court to
a charge of entering the p~ostofice of
the town of Union. He will undoubt-
eddy be sent to Atlanta when he is
sentenced. The warden's trouble will
arise from the fact that another John
Wilson, also a negro, is already sery-
ing time in the Atlanta prison for
breaking into the same postofice on
the same day of the same month, just
m year earlier. Among the other
prisoners arraigned in the United
States District Court was Harry Jor-
dan, who pleaded not guilty to enter
ing the postofice at Fairton, Cumber-
land County. He was held in $1,000
bail for trial.

BATOUM, Russia, May 80, 1910.
Batoum is the Colchis of the ancients,
where Jason and the Argonauts captured
the Golden Fleece 1t is the only seaport
of the Russian province of the Caucasus
and the only outlet for the trade of that
vast and productive area. 1t is the ter
minus Of nearly all the lines of steamers
on the Black sea, and therefore place of
great importance. There is a railway
across the Caucasus between the Black
and the Caspian sea. pipe lines for con-
veying oil from Baku and special docks
for loading tank steamers with that kind
of freight.
Batoum was formerly q part of Turkey
until 1873, and was awarded to Russia by
the treaty of Berlin in which the Euro
pean powers all participated, as part OF
the price which Turkey was compelled to
pay for peace. Since the cession the place
has been strongly fortified by the Rus
slams. notwithstanding stipulation in
that convention against it.
There is population of about thirty
Turkish clans are represented and there
are about six thousand Greeks. There
is an old town and a new town. The
former is duplication Of a hundred
small Turkish cities. with bazaars,
mosques. cafes and khans. where travellers
themselves, their animals and their mer-
chandise. Most of the labor is done
by Armenians. Georgians Greeks. Turks
and CircaSSianS and representatives of a
dozen other races, each of which adheres

SQUIRRELS AND PLAGUE
FRESH OUTBREAK OF DISEASE
PUZZLES OFFICIALS.
Spotted Fever" in Montana De-
clared to Be Caused
by Ticks.

Reports to the marine hospital from
California. where the fight against>
plague-infected squirrels is being carried
on, shows that two surprising foci
of plague infection have developed among
the squirrels One Of these is I'm the
neighborhood of San Jose. in Santa Clara
county. and the other is in San Bernardo
no county. fifteen miles southeast of Hol-
lister
The work of shooting and examining
squirrels for plague infection had been
going on smoothly enough. Some inter-
esting facts were being developed abo-t
the transfer of plague-infected fleas from
rats to squirrels and vice versa. The
total number of plague-infected squirrels
found was not large and was quite
evenly distributed.
Epidemic Among Squirrels.
Then suddenly an epidemic of plague
seemed TO break out among the squirrels
in the localities mentioned, and now the
majority that are examined show the
plague LESSONS.
In some places the squirrels are SO
many and the sickness so general that IL
is little trouble to find them walking
around and to shoot them. In fact. in
some places it is possible to catch them
by hand.
There has been queer outbreak of
disease in Montana that has caused the
Department of Agriculture to send ex-
perts into the field to investigate 1t. The
sickness is known among the inhabitants
as spotted fever"
Disease a Bad One.
1t is a bad disease wherever it has beer
known and there has frequently been
more or less of it in the northwest. The
present outbreak seems to be especially
bad, however, and a very large per-
centage of the cases are fatal.
Enough has been learned of the disease
to know that it is spread by ticks, but
just what tn circumstances are that are
necessary to infection or what the period
Of incubation for the disease is in the
tick has not yet been determined. The
scientists of the department are anxious
to get further light on the nature OF the
infection.
