DECIDED FEELING
OF ANNOYANCE

There is a decided feeling of an
nOyance among members of the
city council over the question of
the water shortage. 1t is just a
year ago since the council ordered
the extensions to proceed, and APP
prOpriated half million dollars to
carry on the work.
Now there is an effort on the
part of the board of public works
and the mayor to attempt to shift
some of the burden for the water
relief delay on to the shoulders of
the city council, and in addition to
disregard the orders of the coun-
Gil in the matter of the immediate
relief of the distress caused by the
shortage, as was done in the case
of the refusal of the board to com
ply with the order of council cut
ting off automatic sprinkling.
A good portion of last nights
meeting Of the city council was
again given over to talk on the
water situation and there was evil
dence of a growing lack of patience
on the part of the council. There
is a strong probability that if the
executive department of the city
government continues to ignore the
orders for relief of the water short
age that some more official heads
will fall into the scrap pile before

RETURNS TO
THECHARGE
Alleges That Chicago Tri-
bune Lied About
Him.
(By United Press Leased Wire)


WASHINGTON, May 2S.-De-
handing an investigation of the
bribery charges in connection with
his election to the United States
senate, William S. Lorimer ap-
reared before the senate today
with an explanation of the case that
blamed the Chicago Tribune.
The resolution demanding an in
vestigation was referred to the COM
mittee on privileges and elections.
In his explanation, Lorimer re
viewed his % years warfare with
the Chicago Tribune and declared
the paper lied when it made the
charges that his election was the
result Of bribery. He denied that
any member of the Illinois legisla-
ture ever received a dollar from
him. He alleged that the attack by
the newspaper was directed not
only at himself personally, but at a
new banking association which he
and his friends are organizing.
He declared that the charges APP
pearing in the paper and purporting
TO have been written by Charles A.
White. a member of the Legislature.
We're plainly not written by White
at all. but We're the work of a
trained newspaper man.
1T is plain every word was
Rssed upon by lawyer" he said,
Aefore it was signed by that poor,
hw creature White, who does not
hesitate to commit forgery for a
few dollars. and TO whom perjury is
no crime"

Four thousand words were employ
ed in President Taft's decision as 10
the meaning of whisky in the pure
food law, but the gist of it is contain
ed in the following summary at the
end: After an examination of all the
evidence, it seems to me overwhelm-
ingly established that for 100 years the
term whisky in the trade and among
the consumers has included all potable
liquor distilled from grain; that the
straight whisky is. as compared with
the whisky made by rectification ana
Redistribution and fiavoring and color
ing matter, subsequent Improvement
and, therefore, it is a perversion OF the
pure food to attempt now to limit the
meaning of the term whisky to that
which modern manufacture and taste
have made the most desirable variety.
The President thus differs with the
ruling of Chief Chemist Wiley, of Sc
licitor General Bowers and former AT
torney General Bonaparte. Wiley and
Bonaparte had decided that only the
straight article could be called ''whis-
ky" under the law. The President ad-
mits in his opinion that the trade has
been full of label frauds. but finds that
the fraud consisted in palming off one
kind of whisky for better kind. The
remedy he proposes is to require that
all liquors be branded so as to show
just what they contain. Where blends
are made from straight Whisky and the
rectified kind the label should 50 state
explicitly. But it will be unlawful to
label rum or liquor distilled from mo-
lasses as whisky.

MONKEYS POST SENTINEL.


Fight Under N Leader and Roll
Stones Down on Their Enemies.
Aesop's ape, it will be remembered,
wept on passing through human
graveyard, overcome with sorrow for
its dead ancestors, and thatall monkeys
are willing enough to be more like us
than they are they show by their
mimicry.
An old authority tells that the
easiest way to capture apes is for the
hunter to pretend to shave himself,
then to wash his face, fill the basin
with sort of bird lime and leave it
for the apes to blind themselves, the
London Times says. If the Chinese
story is to be believed, the initiative
craze is even more fatal in another
way, for if you shoot one monkey of
band with a poisoned arrow, its
neighbor, jealous of so unusual dec
oration, will snatch the arrows from
it and stab itself, only to have it torn
away by third, until in succession
the whole troop have committed sui
eide.
In their wild life balloons, as we'll
as the langurs and many other
monkeys, undoubtedly submit to the
authority of recognized leaders. There
is cooperation between them to the ex-
tent that when fighting in company one
will go to the help of another which
is hard messed
In rocky ground they roll down
stones upon their enemies and when
making a raid, as on an orchard which
they believe to be guarded, the at
tack is conducted on an organized plan,
sentries being posted and scouts
thrown out, which gradually feel their
way forward to make sure that the
coast is clear, while the main body re-
mains in concealment behind until told
that the road is open.
From the fact that the sentries stay
posted throughout the raid, getting
for themselves no share of the plumber,
it has been assumed that there must
be some sort of division of the pro-
ceeds afterward Man, again, has been
differentiated from all other creatures
as being a tool using animal, but more
than one kind of monkey takes stone
in it's hand and with it breaks the nuts
which are too hard to be cracked with
the teeth.
