Apples Now Are Jag Cure.

DR.. Samuel Bailey, of Mount Ayr

antibooze qualities of apples. He has
cured hundreds of drinkers by feeding
them apples when they wanted drink
The women are sending out thousands
of leaflets which read:
The use of apples as an article OF

THAT it is fact could be proved ir
many instances if little care, eau.
tion, and vigilance be taken to investi.
gate conditions. AS a rule the habi.
tual user of alcoholic stimulants is
rarely consumer of apples. There
seems to be peculiar combination ir
apples that allays the irritation, OF
so-called appetite produced by the use
of liquor.

WITNESS DEAF TO
PLEA OF CRATER
Ormsby Says That He Refused
Request of Hermann's
Partner

PORTLAND, Ore. Jan. 1.-THE cross
examination of Salmon B. Ormsby occu-
pied most of today in the trial of
Binger Hermann, charged with 'conspir-
acy to defraud the government of part
of the public domain.
In substance Colonel Worthington, at
torney for the defense, elected state
ments from Ormsby that the boundaries
of the Blue mountain forest reserve
were not altered to suit anybody; that
he told +. P. Mays, with whom Her.
mann is alleged to have conspired, that
he would not alter them and that
after this he believed Mays would take
back the two sections of school land
given to Ormsby.
Ormsby also testified to having re-
ceived a personal letter from Hermann,
dated the day after Hermann, as com
missioner of the general land Office, had
recommended the withdrawal of the
forest reserve lands, but that the re-
serve was not alluded to in it.
Testimony was introduced by the
prosecution to prove that petitions sent
TO Hermann when commissioner and
afterward while in congress opposing
the creation of the reserve, were ig-
nored by the defendant.

SITS WITH JUDGE
Actress Advises Murasky In
Juvenile Court With Prob
lem of Solomon
Two Women Pose as Mother oil
Chinese Boy Accused
of Gambling

Miss Olga eNthersole. the actress, sat
for two hours yesterday afternoon on
the bench of the Juvenile court by the
side of Superior Judge Frank Murasky
There she advised the court on the
problem of Solomon-the problem of
which of two women was the mother of
boy.
Quong Yuen was his name. He is Is
years of age and an inveterate though
youthful gambler. Yuen had been be
fore the court before. had been out to
the "Aid"-the Boys and Girls Aid so
ciety-but he did not want to go back
there. When he was brought before the
Juvenile court yesterday afternoon and
into the presence of Miss Nethersole,
the emotional English actress now ap
pearing al the Van Ness theater in "The
Writing on the WALL" Yuen was accom-
panied by one father. three sisters, eight
cousins and two mothers

the two women III is my boy; borned

Miss Nethersole looked at the two
women. Il think that the elder woman
is the real mother" she whispered to
Judge Murasky. The .other one bull
dozes too much"
The father was nOncOmmittaL As
Judge Murasl1y could not find scimi-
tar with which to make a real SOlOmO-
nian test. he did the next best thing
and put the case over one week
After the boys cases had been dis
posed of Miss Nethersole went with
Judge Murasky into his chambers and
there advised with him over the pitiful

were brought before him. cases of
short skirted children who had too
early overdrawn their accounts for
pleasure and were shamed and suffer

OF STOCKS
TAKE SHARP DROP
Downward Movement Quickens
and Widens Demoralizing
List in Closing Hour
Bull Campaign in Cotton Col
lapses and Bears Take Over
Longs Holdings

NEW YORK, Jan. 14.-The down
ward movement in the stock market,
which had it's inception last week and
has proceeded with more or less regu-
larity since, assumed large proportions
today, when, on heavy iquidations,
prices crumbled throughout the list
There was a Decentralization in the
final hour, and the closing left a ma
jority of active issues at the lowest
level seen in many weeks.
So many conflicting conditions enter
into the market situation at this time
that it would seem idle to attribute the
steady fall of prices to any specific rea-
son.
The recent Rock Island episode un-
doubtedly gave risesto misgivings, and
the status of the American tobacco
and Standard oil cases at Washington
are not reassuring to the conservative
element, whose operations in the Sc
curities market are always to be reck-
oned with.
Trading today reached the large to-
tai of 1,25S,000 shares. OF this amount
more than 20 per cent was United
States steel, which touched the lowest
Cotton Corner Collapses
The big bull campaign in cotton def
nitely collapsed today with the most
spectacular decline seen in a week of
erratic recessions. Reports freely cir
culated to the trade after the close of
the market had it that the position of
the leading southern bull had been COM
pletely undermined by the liquidation
that has been in progress since early
in the year.
At the low point today New York con-
tracts showed a decline of from $500 to
$3.50 bale from the closing prices of
the night previous, which was break
of from s6.10 to $3.50 a bale from the
high figures of the day and $685. to
$14.25 bale from the high point of the
season. May coptracts touched 1910
cents late in the afternoon.
The bull movement had lasted more
than year AT the height of the cam
paign it was estimated that f. G. Scales
of Texas, the leader had accumulated
paper profits of S1O,0OO,00O for the sea
son. As Christmas present he is said
to have given $4,000 to one of his IA
vorite brokers. Another accepted story
has it that he had given $1,000,000 in
cash to one of his brothers.
The situation had developed into a
threat of the greatest squeeze of shorts
ever recorded, but other bulls who had
followed Scales lead without enlisting
in his party decided the time was ripe
for bear raid.
Today it was announced that Scales
was transferring his holdings to lead
ing bear interests.
AS soon as the news spread that an
agreement had been reached between
the conflicting interests the market re-
ceived aggressive support. closing at
from 20 to 80 points up from the low

Juvenile Court as
Seen by Actress
In San Francisco
BY OLGA NETHERSoLE

- O@~N@AA IL A@AN0O O6A@
was much impressed this
afternoon with the work of the
juvenile court in San Francisco.
/ could see Immediately that
Judge Murasky is a friend and
admirer of Judge Ben Lindsey
of Denver, and that he has per-
haps gained some of his en-
thusiasm from the source that
has inspired so many OF US in
this work.
Several years ago / sat on the
bench with Judge Lindsey, and,
at his request, passed upon some
special cases that were brought
before him. l saw that America
had taken another plunge ahead
of us in England, so 1 imme-
diately upon my return home
called upon the lord mayor, Sir
William Treloar, and he called in
our home secretary, Sir Herbert
Gladstone. The two officials re-
quested me to make a report
upon the work as l had seen it
conducted in America. 1 did
so the following year. and now,
only two years afterward. but
still many years behind Amer
ica, 1 have received a cable
gram telling me that on Janu-
ary 1 the first juvenile court was
instituted in London and has be-
gun to operate.
Because l have visited so many
courts of this kind in America,
1 feel frank in saying that San
Francisco is to be congratulated
upon the conduct of affairs as l
viewed them today. None can
estimate what good is to be de-
rived from the work of this court.
/ wish fathers and mothers could
see what 1 have seen today.
wish they could become inter-
ested and think and know about
this work, which, it seems to me.
is one of the most wonderful
things in present day American
life.
1 have also heard splendid re-
ports of the work of Father
Crowley and his Youths Diree-
tory. All these things are tend
ing to bring about a better man
hood and womanhood in the fu-
ture.
There is an exceedingly diff
cult problem here. 1 saw today
Chinese boy. 1t is this racial
mixture that presents a question
that is not to be met with else
where, believe. 1t seems to
me that it would require a life
time of study almost to realize
the Chinese character and be
able to cope with it's intrica cies.
1 believe we all realize that
the thing to do is to find out
what prompts the boy or girl to
be an offender in the sight of the
law. Perhaps the boy steals.
Why? To get something that he
wants. Why does he want it?
Find that out and then trace
whether or not it is a hereditary
tendency; how it can be reme-
died; yes, treated as doctors treat
the sick. Cure it, Nurse it.
First you know you have a nor
NAL man. There is the Juvenile
court in a nutshell. as 1 see it.
