MISSING BOY
WAS LOCATED
At NJ DAVID
LOUIS WITkoVsKI, AFTER RE-
NAMING AWAY FROM HOME
FOR TWO DAYS, is FOUND AND
RETURNED TO PARENTS.

Louis witkovski, the fourteen-year-
old son Of b. R. Witkovski, who has
been missing from his home since
Monday morning, was located yester-
day afternoon at McDavid and brought
back to the city.
The boy was sent to school Monday
morning, but did not go there. and the
last trace that could be found of hin,
in the city was about 10 O'Clock that
morning, when he went to the store of
J. Ed. Williams, corner OF Jackson and
DeVillier streets, and purchased a bot
tie Of grape juice and a can of sar-
dimes.
His father was of the opinion all
the while that he had left the city,
as it was known that he had received
a letter from a cousin about his own
age, who resides in South Carolina,
urging him to go and visit him, and it
was suspected that he had taken a no.
ton he could walk the distance to the
South Carolina town, which surmisc
was evidently correct since he was To-
Gated In McDavid.

condition Of the county was read.
A number of bills, on which q dis

were approved and ordered paid in or

The matter referred to at meeting
last month regarding the light bill
of the county. In which 1t was claim
ed that the Blount Construction Co..
contractors for the jail building had
been using light from the meter OF the
county was again brought UP for dis
cussion, and Mr.. Blount stated that he
had found upon Investigation that the
company had been connected with the
meter Of the county, but that he was
not aware Of the fact until he had
made this investigation since the mat
ter was brought up before He had
already agreed to remunerate the
county in case he found this to be a
fact.
WILL BUY BEDDING.
Commissioner Baggett brought up
the subject OF bedding for the new
jail building, It having been stated
that the transfer of prisoners would
probably occur within the next two
weeks After some discussion Of the
matter, It was decided to notify 10
cal firms to appear before the next
meeting of the board and submit
prices and propositions for furnishing
some mattresses. It is estimated that
the required number can be bought
for less than $500 and the law does
not require the advertising for bids
for amounts less than this.
A. W. Davis, who had been ap-
pointed TO investigate the matter, re-
ported that he considered a light in
the middle of the bridge across Bayou
Texar necessary, but that he thought
the city should be willing to bear
half Of the expense of the light. A
resolution was adopted instructing the
clerk to address communication to
the mayor asking him to take the
matter up with the proper branch of
the city and advise the county COM
missioners concerning the matter.

J. B. Cox, in opening the argument
for the government in the cocal-cola
case, today declared that while it only
involved forty barrels and twenty
kegs Of coca-cola valued at less than
$4,000, il involved a principle, the

ed coca-cola to contain caffeine, a

only to New York and vicinity, one
man supplying most Of the demand
with 400 gallons a day. According
to a bulletin of the bureau of fish,

preservation by picking involves the
use OF vinegar and spices in various
proportions according to individual
fancies.
Mussels abound in the bays and
estuaries of the Atlantic coast from
North Carolina northward and on the
Pacific coast from Alaska to San
Francisco. They grow in great beds,
often acres in extent on the surface
of mud or sand extending out from
between tide marks to several fathoms
of water. Near Marthas' Vineyard,
Mass. there is mussel bed two years
old that represents hundreds of tons
Of valuable food. Mussels are also
found growing in great abundance out
in the deeper waters. On one occas-

total supply of New York, which
amounts to rs barrels Of mussels in
the shell and 400 gallons Of the
picked variety a day. is furnished
chiefly from the bays bordering Long
Island. The man who provides nearly
this whole supply says that the guam

Sea MusseIs as Food.
The sea mussel. which is practically
unknown as a food In the United
States outside of New York, has been

hundreds of years. says the New York
Sun. According to Quatrefages the
artificial culture OF musseIs for food
began as early as the year 1885. Gould
states that this sheIlfish is extensively
used as food in England, France

more palatable than the common
clam.
Andersen refers to It as q cheap
and healthful food in America, France,

raw with vinegar and pepper or boil
ed with milk. This state of affairs is
reversed in America, where the sot-
shelleG clam is so popular that there
is danger of the demand exceeding the
supply, while the mussel, although ex-
ceedingly abundant remains almost
untitled.

The origin Of the problem squaring
the circle is almost lost in the mists OF
antiquity. but there Is a record Of an
attempted quadrature in Egypt 500
years before the exodus Of the Jews.
There is also a claim. according to
Hone. that the problem was solved by
n discovery Of Hipprocates. the geom-
etrician Of Chios-not the physician
500 b. o. Now, the efforts of Hippoc-
rates we're devoted toward converting
a circle into a crescent. because he had
found that the area Of a figure pro-
duced by drawing two perpendicular
radii in a circle is exactly equal to the
triangle formed by the line Of juno
ton. This is the famous theorem of
the '1unes of Hippocrates" and is, like
glauber's salts out of the philosophers
stone. an example Of the useful results
which sometimes follow search for
the unattainHble.
