bleaching HIDES POOR
QUALITY OF wheat USED

Kansas City, NO., Juen 22.-Pierce
Butler, attorney for the government in
the "bleached flour" case in the fed
eral court here, drew on admission
today from T. J. Holdredge, a King
man, Kansas, miller that bleached
flour made from wheat containing vel
low berry made it look practically like
hour made from Turkey wheat.
Could Nat See Difference.
On cross examination Holdredge
said that flour made from wheat con-
tanning yellow berry, was inferior to
Turkey wheat -four. The point At
torney Butler tried to emphasize was
that bleaching hides inferiority.
Adolph Boulder and E. H. Cohen.
garten, st. Louis bakers, testified that
they could see no difference between
bleached and unbleached flour so far
as the dough was concerned.

HANDcUFFS.
Various Devices That Have Been Used
In lettering Prisoners.

In F lettering prisoners.
In Vergil is to be found the first re.
corded instance of the use of hand.
cuffs, for the poet tells us that Proteus
was thus fettered and rendered pow
erless by Aristaeus, who apparently
knew that even the gods themselves
were not proof against this form Of
persuasion.
In the fourth century B. c. an army
of victorious Greeks found several
chariots full of handouts among the
baggage of the defeated Carthaginians.
and it is highly probable that the an
Gent Egyptians had some contrivance
of the kind. The WORD is derived
from the Anglo-Saxon 'handcop,"
whence comes evidently the slang
term "copper"
In earliest Saxon days "handcops"
were used for mobiles and "foot cops"
for kings, but in the fourteenth and
fifteenth centuries the word is sup
planted by the terms "shack bolt and
swivel manacle," and the instruments
were as cumbersome as the names by
which they were known.
Up to the middle Of the last century
there were two kinds Of handcuff in
general use. One, known as the ''tlexi-
ble," was very like that which is
still used; the other kind, called the
figure eight" was used to restrain
violent prisoners. 1t was so fashioned
that the captive could not move his
hands and was universally dreaded,
for the pain caused by limb immov-
ably confined is almost unbearable.
A simple but powerful device for Sc
curing prisoners was the "twister,"
now abolished owing to the injuries
it inflicted. 1t consisted Of a chain
with handles at each end. The chain
was put around the wrists, and the
handles were brought together and
twisted until firm grip was obtained.
The least struggle on the part Of the
captive and the chains bit deep into
his wrists. OF the same nature, but
made Of wire. Is ia ligote." while in
an emergency whipcord has proved
perfectly satisfactory.
The handcutf used in some parts Of
eastern Europe is most primitive. 1t
consists Of a V shaped piece Of metal.
in which the wrists are inserted. the
open ends being then drawn together
by means Of cross hook, which must
be kept taut the whole time. The
most handy form Of cuff, which is in
general use at present, comes from
America. 1t Is lighter and much less
clumsy than the old "f1exible."
It is no easy matter to clap the

their attention to the subject, for much
remains to be done before the fighting

would escape the collision. BY this time,
however, the train was almost upon
them, and although the engineer had
put on his brakes so sharply that the
train slid along the tracks with the
wheels locked, it was too late, and the
heavy engine hit the automobile with
great force.

A SERIOUS ACCIDENT.
Joseph (. CLARK Sustained Bad
Injuries Yesterday Afternoon.

While George McMasters and Joseph
E. Clark were returning from Moretown
Yesterday afternoon their horse was
frightened by an auto driven by man
named Pearson of Barre, and went over
a ten-foot bank. Mr.. McMasters es-
capped with minor bruises, but Mr.. Clark
sustained badly sprained back and is
in serious condition.
The accident occurred at a narrow
place in the road, about a mile and a
half this side of Moretown. AS the
auto approached, the driver stopped to
give the team chance to get by. The
horse was strange one to Mr.. Clark
and very spirited, and in spite of the
efforts of the driver of the animal went
over the bank, toward the river. Mr..
Clark was on the lower side of the seat
with no chance to escape. Mr.. Nc
Masters jumped and quickly eXtricated
his companion from the wreckage. Mr..
Clark struck on a stone as he went
down and it was in that way that his
back was injured.
The driver of the auto took both men
to Middlesex to the home of Henry
Hudson and from there a call was sent
to this city and DIR. A. H. Parmenter
went to the scene in an automobile On
arrival he found the injured man in
shape to be brought to this city and he
was taken to his home on st. Paul
street, arriving here shortly after six
o'clock, two hours after the accident
took place. Mr.. McMasters returned
to the scene in the auto and took care
of the horse and wagon. The wagon
was not badly damaged and the animal
escaped injury.
The driver of the auto showed all
possible courtesy and was in no way at
fault in the matter, as he did all he
could to prevent the occurrence. He
stopped before reaching the team and
had the horse not been unmanageable
there would have been no trouble
1t was stated last night that Mr..
Clark was resting as well as could be
expected in view of his injuries. His
back is seriously injured, but no frac-
ture is present or paralysis would be
likely to exist. The accident will lay
him up for some time, but his ultimate
recovery is looked for. - Montpelier

AUTO KILLS TWO GIRLS.
Daughters of Andrew Crawford
Meet Instant Death at Rail-
road Crcssinq,

Taking a desperate chance Sunday
afternoon, when the brakes of his auto
mobile went wrong, Charles Menge-
bauer, chauffeur tried to cross in
front of Long Island Railroad train
which was. approaching the Merrick
Road crossing at high speed, and failed.
The engine struck the machine at the
rear wheels, throwing the four occu-
pants out, killing two of them, Miss
Charlotte Crawford, nineteen years old,
and Miss Janet Crawford, seventeen
years old, Riverdale. Mengebauer and
Andrew Crawford, father of the young
women, escaped with minor injuries.
The crossing at which the accident oc-
Cured has long been known as one of
the most dangerous to automobilists on
the railroad. 1t was here, few years
ago, that several persons from Brook
which they were riding was struck by a
train. Since that time it has been
known as "Tally-ho Crossing" The
Long Island Railroad has made i'm
provements at the spot recently, so that
it is possible for approaching automo-
bilists to obtain fairly good view of
the tracks, both north and south of the
crossing. Despite this the car was
driven directly across the path of the
engine.
Mr.. Crawford and his daughters had
been on tour of the South Shore and
at the time of the accident were bowl
ing along the Merrick Road in an east
erly direction. At the crossing there
is no fiagman stationed, but an electric
bell has been installed which rings upon
the approach of train. Whether the
bell failed to work properly has not yet
been determined, but it is known that
the automobile approached the crossing
with no lessening of its speed
BRAKES WOULD NOT WORK.
Mr.. Crawford was on the seat beside
the chauffeur, and his two daughters oc-
cupied the rear of the automobile. When
the car had reached a point within a
hundred yards of the track Mengebauer
applied the brakes, gradually at first.
then with full force. The machine had
been moving fast and was now but a
few yards from the crossing. When
Mengebauer realized that the brakes
would not check the speed of his car he
determined to try to cut across the
tracks in front of the train.
With full power on, the car leaped
forward with increased speed, and it

SCORES AUTO DRIVERS.
Philadelphia judge Says Running
of M ach Ines is Now a Scandal.

Philadelphia, June 90. 1.-The fact
that the running of automobiles regard
less of anybody's rights has become a
public scandal is due to the supineness
of the people in not rising up and de-
manding that one class of people shall
not have practically exclusive use of the
streets and roads of our city," declared
Judge Breezy in discharging the June
grand jury in the Criminal Court today
There are, of course" continued
the court, "plenty of people who run
their motor cars in a reasonable way,
but there are also two other classes.
1--WE have first class of drivers who
are utterly lawless and brutal and who
regard no ones rights. The other class,
equally dangerous, is the young imma-
ture drivers of both sexes, who have
not the judgment to appreciate the re-
sponsibility that goes with the running
of an engine on the public reets-for,
after all, that is all that an automobile
is. 1t is an engine, locomotive
running on the city streets and country
roads.
"To my mind the reports which we
see in the newspapers of hundreds OF
millions of dollars being spent for auto
mobiles is an indication of the wild ex.
travagance which goes far beyond what
many people can afford, and that before
long will bear its f ruit of failure, fore
closed mortgages and crime. New

A JUGGLER'S TRICK.
Clever Feat Of Illusion Performed by
an East Indian.

an East Indian.
A retired naval official who served
long in the east says the feats OF the
East Indian jugglers are wonderful.
He cites one.
While he was an officer on board

aboard at Madras, he says. They were

had performed a number Of minor
feats and had gathered quite crowd
around them they called for a sack
and a piece of sailcloth.
These having been provided. the
chief juggler made a small tentlike
structure with the canvas and some
stools. He then placed his assistant
in the sack and allowed a sailor to tie
the knot which bound him fast pris-
oner. This done, the chief carried the
sack into an open space, warning the
people to stand back some distance,
and then carried on an animated con-
versation with his assistant. whose re-
plies could be distinctly heard coming
from the sack. Suddenly the chief
rushed forward, picked up the sack
and dumped it overheard. where, to
the horror of the passengers and crew.
1t sank out of sight.
Immediately the captain rushed for
ward and seized the man under the
full belief that he had murdered his
companion. but the juggler only smiled
and. pointing to the canvas, asked that
it be raised. This was done, and the
supposed drowned man was discov-
cred squatting on the deck. So real
istic had been the throwing overheard.
