The Pinchotic idea of conserva- ton is wonderful. In Alaska they are paying S25 to S3o a ton for coal to British Columbia because Alaska's great coal deposits, which could be had for S per ton, are conserved for our children s children" T h e great eastern states, after having taken freely all the available resources of the east, freely and without cost, now are willing to conserve the west to the limit. Its resources are bottled up for our "children's children. It is popular idea in the east and well Pinchot knows it.

The poor, impoverished maga- zine publishers, who desire only a few hundred thousand dollars profit per year on magazines, are dread fully peeved because of the pro- posed increase of a cent and half per magazine to deliver them through the mails. It costs the government cents pound for the service, for which they receive one cent. They would still make vast profits on their advertising at the proposed rate, but they want it all. Because their post age runs up into large figures is no reason they should be favored their profits are only that much larger. The small publisher pays just as much in comparison as they do.

If there is one thing more than another that sours the public stomach against railroads it is statements such as were recently made by President Louis Hill of the Great Northern, who says,
 owing to the refusal of the inter. state commerce commission to allow railroads to increase their rates, they will not make the ex- tensions and improvements iu- tended. . Tax exemptions and bonuses never built legitimate railroad. They are built because money could be made from them. Hills statement is in line with many others very similar, to the effect that the public must not only pay profits to them, but also pay extra in order that they may make more extensions and inn provements that more profits may accrue to them. The average in- dividual is content to put his legitimate profits into his husi- ness to increase its dimensions, instead of expecting the public to come forward and do 1t for him and pay him profits beside.
 The general basis of all rates is all the traffic will bear without actually making rates prohibitive; rates are only made prohibitive when some side line belonging to the railroad comes into competi- ton with outside interests.
 Another pet diversion is to ad- wise the public that it will be neces- sary to reduce the pay of railroad men-meaning the men who do the actual work, not officials, if increased rates or existing exorbi- tant rates are not permitted. Rail- road men generally have come 10 realize the farce of this game and it does not make them as enthus- iastic over boosting rates as it used to.
 To the upper officials the rail- raad is only an incident as com pared to the pickings on the side, combinations and profits on stock manipulations. The little stock holder gets his little dividend and this little dividend is all the pub lie is told of. They own practi- cally a controlling interest in the express companies, telegraph com panies and vast number of other enterprises. The assets of the express companies used in oper- ating their business is but I2 per cent of their total assets. It is very probable that railroads total assets are made up as much, if not more, from outside interests than from equipment actually used in operating.
 With bond issues, inflated stock issues, wheels within wheels and side issues, there is no wonder the general public are exceedingly skeptical and receive such state

SACCHARlN BARRED.
Government Forbids Its Use-Said 70
Disturb Digestion.

All persons having a desire for
something sweet must find otter
means Of satisfying the craving than
saccharin. That popular substitute
for sugar will be forbidden after July
l. The fiat of the agricultural de-
partment prohibiting the use of sac
charm in any food product has gone
forth.
Saccharin TECHNICALLY is a product of
coal tar 1t is used as a substitute
for sugar and is 300 per cent sweeter
than sugar. The objection to saccha-
rim is that it is disturber of diges-
tion.
The decision is of the most sweep
ing nature. 1t directly affects more
than thirty different classes of food,
including soft drinks, sweet pickles,
jellies, jams and also some makes of
beer.
The referee board of consulting sci
entific experts in its report says:
"The continued use of saccharin for
a long time in quantities over three
tenths of a grain per day is liable to
impair digestion. The addition of
saccharin as a substitute for cane
sugar or other forms of sugar reduces
the food value of the sweetened prod
uct and hence lowers its quality"

CASE like the
S|AMESE TWINS
Mystery Of Indian Boys Dis
appearance Explained,
HAD Been MISSING TEN YEARS

Body Found In Gave In Oklahoma
Has Two Heads, Four Arms and Four
Feet-Roy Came Across It While
Hunting Rabbits.
recently found in cave near Okmul-
gee, Okla. by Emmons Lowe, farm
er boy. The body has two heads, four
arms, four legs and four feet and is
that of a person nearly five feet tall.
The arms are all of the same length
and reach far below the knees.
The Lowe boy found the mummy
while hunting rabbits. He followed
his dog on the trail of a rabbit into the
cave and while cropping around came
upon the body. The flesh on the bones
has dried, and apparently there has
been no decay.
Old residents in the vicinity of the
cave say the body is that of an Indian
boy who has been missing several
years. 1t was known to them that
there was such a boy among the In
dians. He was kept out of sight as
much as possible by the other mem
bers of the tribe to which he belonged.
but had been seen by a number of
white persons.
John Pepper of Okmulgee said he
had seen the two headed Indian boy a
number of times. The mOnstroSity
was in reality two persons with one
body, he said The mummy is that of
two persons, apparently, even the
shoulders of each being separate and
perfect, the body very wide and the
lower limbs fully developed. The
bodies appear to be joined together be-
low the shoulders and from there down
to the hips. Physicians have examin-
ed the body and say there were really
two persons or two bodies and that
they We're grown together and could
not have been separated even by a sur
gical operation.
Pepper remembers that the Indian
boy or boys walked and talked when
alive The Indians were reticent about
them, or him, and little was known of
him outside of the tribe to which he
belonged. 1t is supposed that the
"twins," as they were called by the
white people who had seen them, wan
dered away and died in the cave Pep
per says they have been missing near
ly ten years, or at least it has been
that long since he saw them alive.

WHALE Melted FORTUNE.
II Yielded Oil and Something Else
Amberars Worth 100000.

AmpefgriS worm QoOJOOO'
In vault at the headquarters of Il
wholesale drug firm in Boston are about
100 pounds of ambergris. 1t is valued
at 100000, according to experts.
Trade quotations give the present
market value Of ambergris at from SO
to $15 an ounce. The 100 pound pack
age is by far the largest amount of am
bergris received in Boston or New Enc
land in many years and is said to b
of uncommonly high quality. 1t was
picked up by the crews of the bark
Bertha, Captain Ben Vera, and the
brig Viola, Captain John A. Cook, who
found it while whaling off the coast
of Africa in December.
The crews of the Bertha and Vioa
were pursuing sperm whales when
the lookouts sighted several spouting
in the sunlight One fellow about thir-
ty feet long Jagged behind the others.
He was sluggish, and it happened that
the harpoons which simultaneously
pierced his sides came from small
boats from both ships. That's why
the crews are dividing the spoils.
The laggard yielded only fifteen bar
rels of oil, but the grumbling of the
whalers was dispelled by the huge
black lump of ambergris taken from
him.

EVE A SUFFRAGETTE.
Dominated Adam and Caused Him to
Eat the Apple, Says Professor.

Dominated Adam and Caused Him to
Eat the Apple, Says Professor.
The original suffragette, according to
Dr. Paul Haupt, professor of Semitic
languages in Johns Hopkins univer-
sity, was Eve, who dominated Adam
and caused him to eat of the forbidden
fruit.
''Some people think that when the
Lord created Eve he took not only a
rib from Adam, but also the back
bone," says DR.. Haupt.
DR.. Haupt apparently subscribes to
this view. His theory is set forth in
a paper which he read before the
American Philosophical society in
Philadelphia. For his authority DR..
Haupt quotes the Bible. In Genesis
xvii, Z, he finds the quotations:
"And unto thee shall be his desire
and thou shalt rule over him" The
context seems to have no relation to
this quotation, and Dr. Haupt init
mates that it was interpolated prob
ably by woman who knew her rights,
for in the preceding chapter Dr. Haupt
finds that the Lord pronounced a curse
on Eve, saying:
81 will greatly multiply thy sorrow
and thy signing. In pain thou shalt
bear children. Nevertheless thy desire
shall be to thy husband, and he shall
rule over thee"
DR.. Haupt says: 81 have discovered
that the story of the fall of man and
the story of Cain and Abel were writ
ten in parallel columns. In the space
between commentaries were made.
Some woman or some man under the
influence of woman wrote this suf-
fragette gloss in the space between the
columns Later it crept into the col
umn containing the story of Cain and
Abel, and there it is found today"

$4,000 Distributed Weekly.
Every week since the strike started
| $4,000 has been sent to GreensburT
| from the mine workers national head
quarters at indianapolis. the money
being deposited in the shape Of Il
check in q Greensburg bank.
1t is drawn out i'll specie and green
backs by a man named McCartne"
who represents the national organiZN-
ton in the striking district. 1t is car
ried by him to the second floor of :
deserted private residence in Greens

the strikers as a local headquarter'
and which has paper instead of pane
of glass in its windows. Once a week

full of silver across to each in turn
| $3.50 to each man, IS cents to each
woman and so cents to each child in
every striking miners family. Every
mine worker in this country, it is
said, is being taxed so cents week to
make up this weekly $4,000 contribu-
ton to the Greensburg strikers.
According to a recent visitor to the
strike gripped region, about ten per
sons have been killed and nearly 100
wounded in the course of the four
teen months strike.
The striking miners say that all they
want is to arbitrate with the mine
owners They set much store on the
fact that Governor Tener of Pennsyl-
vania stated publicly recently that he
was greatly in favor of a congression-
al or legislative investigation of the
disagreement of the miners and en-
ployers. A bill making possible con
gressional investigation has already
passed the house of representatives
! and is before the senate.
Arbitration Desired.
What the strikers would particularly
! like, according to their representatives
! is the creation of an arbitration com
mission of three. One member of this
| commission would be chosen by the
strikers. the other by the mine owners
and the third either by the first tive
commissioners or. if these could not
agree, by Governor Tener himself.
A few weeks ago in a pouring rain
the striking miners of Greensburg had
big procession celebrating the strike'S
fourteenth month of unbrOken cOntinu
ance. Fifteen hundred men, 100 wo
men and $50 children marched in the
ranks. Two wealthy and philanthropy
tc women and two clergymen of wide
ly different creeds led the procession

One of the women was Mrs. Glen

teal officeholder in Pittsburg.
One of the two clergymen was the
Rev. d. L. Schultz, who last August

wanted"The Right Man"

Men capable Of being efficient and
successful college presidents are not Al
plentiful as the average person might
think. Since the recent death of Mat.
thew H. Buckham, president Of the
university of Vermont, after nearly "a
years Of service, the trustees of that
institution have been on the outlook
for successor They have had called
to their attention, as possibly being
available for the place, about 50 names.
So far no decision has been made and
the field is still ope nfor "the right
man.
The university has about 900 students,
il prosperous, and has large possibil.
titles Of development The kind of man
desired il one who possesses scholarly
ability, administrative capacity, tact a
personality that will make impress
upon both small urban and rural dis
tricts, and finally the possessor Of these
qualities should understand the New
England character, and, preferably, while
not more than As years. old, 40 would
be better IT is no wonder that the
trustees are not quickly finding the
right man"
So far, it is understood. the trustees
have come to the conclusion that they
are not likely TO fud a president who
is in the ministry. President Buekham
was a minister, and most of his pre-
decessors were clergymen; but this is
an era Of new needs, aud the bus
mess problems of an educational iusti.
tuition are more important than ever.
This impression, Of course, may give
way if wearer of the cloth who meas
ures up to the requirements should be
found.
The trustees are not offering any re-
ward for the discovery of a suitable
president, but they have the giving Of a
liberal reward TO the man chosen, name
ly, residence in the beautiful city Of
Burlington in a cultivated and whole
some community, satisfactory salary,
body OF loyal alumni behind the in
stitution, an able faculty, and a field
