MANY WANT TO SELL AN
INCH OF THEIR TONGUE
snecIaI to the journal.

Kansas City, Aug. 16.-Mrs. J. L,
Long of independence, Mo-, mother of
Miss Inez Long, who recently bit off
her tongue in a motor car accident re-
ceived on an average fifty letters and
kilograms daily for the last three days
in response to her announcement that
a reward would be paid for an inch
of some ones tongue to be used to
cure the girl.
The writer of one letter said he
thought $4,000 would be a reasonable
price for an inch of tongue.
"a University of Pennsylvania grad
uate" Mrs. Long, said, recommended
his tongue very highly as first class
and in fine condition" One young
man in the east said he desired to
come west to go into business. He said
he had no money and was willing to
sell part of his tongue for the neces-
sary capital.
Miss Long still suffers, but her
tongue is healing.

Washington, Aug. 16.-Dr. Harvey
w. Wiley, chief of the bureau of
chemistry of the department of agri-
culture, testified before the house In
vestiagting committee today that he
has surrendered practically all his au-
thority for enforcing the pure food
laws to DR.. F. i. Dunlap, associate
chemist, and George McCabe, solicitor
of the agricultural department. He
has been overruled in two thirds of the
casess- he brought before the food and
drugs inspection board, composed OF
these two men and himself, and he de-
clared he found it useless to appeal to
Secretary Wilson, as he had received
no answer to very important appeals
he had made to the secretary.
Wiley was summoned before the
committee to tell of his connection
with the employment of DR.. H. H.
Busby on an alleged illegal contract,
and gave some illuminating informa-
tion. He testified he had never re-
ceived the letter from Rusby which
was used by the personnel of the
board to prove that he knew about the
Busby contract. Wiley stated McCabe
held the decisive vote on the board Of
food and drugs inspection and that
when Wiley and Dunlap disagreed on
questions of chemistry McCabe de-
cided the question. In fully one hun
dred cases where Wiley and Dunlap
voted together and McCabe disagreed
Dunlap changed his vote to agree with
McCabe. He said he found it useless
to appeal, as the secretary invariably
upheld the decisions of the board.

training for the pure food life. He de-

WILL DEDICATE MONUMENT
IN HONOR OF UNION NAVY
sy AssocIated Press.

Washington, Aug. 16.-The new
monument erected on the Vicksburg
National park, in honor of the Union
navy of the Civil war, probably will
be dedicated April 16 next year. This
date, to which good deal of sentiment
attaches, is under consideration by
the navy department. 1t was on April
Is that the army transports in convoy
of Admiral Porter's fleet passed Vicks-
burg prior to the investment of that
city by the Union forces on July 4. An
advantage of the date is the fact that
the Mississippi river will be at high
stage, permitting the passage up as
far as Vicksburg of some of the large
warships to participate in the dedi-
cation.
The memorial is a granite obelisk, 202
feet high, with four bronze statues at
the base, representing the naval COM
manders identified with the siege of
Vicksburg-Farraguet, Porter, Foote
and Davis. 1t cost 100000.
There is now a proposition before
congress. to erect another monument
in the same park in honor of the Con-
federate navy.

Cherokee Indians Preparing to

for land in the Cherokee nation which
has been allotted to negroes. who are
known as freedmen and TO whites who
have married into the tribes. There
are $500 negroes who have been given

emancipated the government declared
that the Indian negro slaves should
not only be freed, but should share

The Red Cap of Safety.
From tine Columhna nisnatch


In the wearing of red caps by hunt.
ers. says the game warden Of wiscon
sin, lies the salvation Of many lives.
That Is a suggestion which will cause
a smile. but it is one which, on second
thought. will be seen to have much
merit. Every year. during the hunting
season. not only Of deer. but of other
game. there is a long list of fatalities
due to the oft-repeated fact that some
nervous or overzealous hunter mistook
his companion for the game he was
stalking. He saw a moving of the
bushes and. hastily concluding that in
that direction was the game, fired, with
the result that a man, and not a dumb
animal. was killed. Scarlet headwear
would distinguish a hunter afar off
and would make him visible to other
hunters. even when partly hidden by
bushes, for it would be in conspicuous
contrast with the prevailing colors Of
the woods and the game. The game
warden Of Wisconsin is hoping, with
the voluntary experiments Of this sea
son. to create sentiment that will
make the passage OF q compulsory law
an easy matter. The red cap may not
be an article OF apparel that the hunter
would voluntarily choose: but if IT
means the saving OF life and the res
cue OF the hunt from the fear OF man
slaughter 1t is unlikely that any OF
them would object to adding il to their
outfit.
