WATERED MILK is
CENTER OF FIGHT
Convicted Farm Proves Cow
Was at Fault.

Paris, Dec. 2-Both the French depart.
ment of agriculture and the department
Of Justice are occupied at present with
complicated legal dispute which origi-
mated from strange cow kept on q
Picardy farm. This COW gave milk which
the analysts report shows to be the
equivalent Of ordinary milk diluted with
20 per cent of water. Was the milk wa
tered, or was it only watery? The farmer
proclaimed his honesty; the analyst held
for the infallibility Of his hydrometer. As
a dumb but certifcated scientific instru-
ment cannot lie, and as the agricultural
expert swore that there could be no
other explanation. the farmer was or
dered to pay a fne.
A second analysis a month later led to
a second report, a second protest, a Sec
ond conviction. But the Picards are
noted for their obstinacy. The farmer
was convinced, and so, to convince 9TH
ers, he had his cows MIXED in front of
a commissioner Of oaths whose evidence
could not be gainsaid, and at the third
prosecution to oppose the analysts re-
port he entered this legal certificate. But
the law says that the milk shall be OF a
certain density, so the magistrate in
ficted a third fine Of $50.
The farmer has now made another ap-
peal. The department of agriculture,
therefore, is making an inquiry into the
possibility of producing "watery'' milk
without watering it AFTER milking.

WOMAN'S COLLEGE
OPENS In BERLIN
Feminist Movement Behind
New Institution.

Berlin, Dec. Am important event in
the. growth Of the feminist movement in
Germany, which in the last few years
has made great strides, was the open
ing in Leipzig OF the first University
College for Women in Germany.
The new college will not con1ne its
students to the ordinary curriculum, but
has as its chief object the education of
women in the performance of their du-
ties as the mothers OF the nation. At
the same time, the school is by no
means to be considered as q cooking
and sewing class, but will train its stu
dents in all the ordinary university
branches OF learning.
The school owes its foundation entire
Iy to the efforts OF Frau Henrietta Gold
schmidt the widow of a Jewish rabbi,
and one of the most remarkable figures
at the head Of the German feminist
movement. Frau Goldschmidt is now
eighty-six years OF age. and has worked
nearly all her life for the advancement
Of her sex. The Women's University
College has been one OF her cherished
aspirations, and for the last forty years
she has worked increasingly toward the
realization of her scheme. The insttu-
titon is promised a great future, for
over 500 students have registered them
selves for the first years courses.

Berlin, Dec. 2.-The German Emperor Is
the most decorated Parsonage In the
world, and II he were to display all the
orders and stars to which he is entitled.
his entire person would be hidden. AS
King Of Prussia, he is head of every
Prussian companionship, including the

Red Eagle, the knights OF Jerusalem.
the Orders OF the Crown and Pour lie
Merine, and the Order of the House of
Hohenzofiern.
Besides imperial and Prussian decora-
lions he can. II he so wishes. wear those
of almost all foreign orders of distinc-
ton. Among these are the English Or
der of the Garter, the Russian Order
OF st. Andreas, the Italian Order Of An
nunciation. the Danish Order OF the EIe-
plant, the Swedish Order of the Sc
pharine, the Norwegian Order of the
Lion, and the Spanish Order OF the Gold

GERMAN OFFICIALS
NOT TO Be BRIBED
Merchant Who Tried 1t Gets
Into Trouble.

Berlin, Dec. 2-The honesty of Prus-
sian officials, particularly in the higher
ranks, is so generally established that
attempts at bribery on the part of con-
tractors or other business people are
rarely made. One attempt, however,
is sufficiently curious to be worth re-
cording.
The accused, dry goods merchant.
was given a contract b the army cloth
ing department for 5000 meters of cloth
at price of about $1,000 He desired a
further order and went in person to
the dwelling of the departmental super
!ntendent to talk the matter over. The
superintendent would not see him, and
a visit to the department resulted in
his being told to apply through the
usual channels. As he went away he
was heard to mutter something about
showirC, himself specially grateful"
The same evening the superintendent
received through the post a cover con-
tanning an envelope with five 100 mark
notes, but nothing to indicate whence
It came or what it was for. The superin-
tendent Immediately reported the mat
ter, and the bride was traced to the
merchant, who. in apparent despair, ex-
planned that a mistake had occurred and
the notes been put into the wrong en-
velope.
AS 1t happened, the evidence showed
that the envelope containing the notes
had obviously been folded to fit the cover.
The court found the accused guilty and
sentenced him to pay $3.50 fine. The
notes were coniscated to the treasury.

EMPEROR AS ALTRUIST.
Francis Joseph Is Noted for Many
Quiet. Deeds of Charity.

Vienna, Dec. 2-Emperor Francis Jo-
seph is noted for his many acts OF un-
ostentatious charity to men and. women
in reduced circumstances, and one such
case has come to light.
Some years ago Herr NORTH Wahr-
mann. a wealthy member OF the Hun
garian Parliament, rendered effective
service to the country at time Of crisis.
His sons, however. succeeded in dissipat-
ing the fortune left them, the younger
Ernest wahrmann, committing suicide.
Richard, the elder son, was also heavily
in debt, but 1t appears that the EN-
peror out Of his own private purse paid
all his debts and gave him substantial
sum on condition that he go to the
United States and start afresh.

fine RESULTS
NOVEL METHODS In ADVER.
TISING Is POPULAR
WITH PUBLIC

The latest, best and most up-to-date
system of advertising has been adop-
ted by the enterprising business man
agement of the Peerless Clothing Co.
and has caused wide comment and
considerable furor among the buying
public of this section.
When the Peerless Clothing Co.
first announced that they would give
away absolutely free the beautiful
$400 Upton parlor grand piano which
lis on exhibition in its store, much
curiosity was aroused as to HOW
they could afford, from a business
standpoint, TO do such a thing, but
when it was learned that they would
give ONE PIANO VOTE with every
cent paid for any article in their
store; also that the Piano was to be
given absolutely free to the person
presenting the greatest number of
votes to them by December 23rd,
1911, II looked like an extremely nov
ell and most liberal advertising meth
cd.
The earnestness with which the
buying public have been going af-
ter" these piano votes makes good our
prophecy that it would be merry
strife. This novel advertising cam
paign, the ever increasing crowds,
the many splendid values which they
are offering daily has made their
name household name and mec-
ca for the bargain hunters Of this
community.
The Peerless Clothing Co. is to be
congratulated upon the thoroughness
of their business foresight and the
citizens of Grants Pass should feel
that they have all reason to be proud
of the fact of having an establish.
ment conducted upon such liberal and
true business principles within their
gates.

PRESBYTERIA IS SECOND
In LOCAL LEAGUE

The sun, soaring like some golden
latirostres, was beyinninp to say bis
daily farewell as he gradually sank
over the everlasting hills OF the
Rogue River valley when the myrmi-
donian hordes of emtion-swayed SYM
pathizers of the Baptists and Presby-
terian teams were gathered to wit
ness the gigantean struggle that was
fit yesterday evening on high
school field to decide which team
would emerge victorious in the race
for the coveted second place in the
Sunday School league.
The vast throng included many la
dies, garbed daintily in a papiliona
ceous loveliness, radiant as fairy god
mothers could wish their queens,
who cheered the battle with equal
ardor, albeit greater sensibility than
did their lords and masters. CMrs.
Pankhurst please write.)
The Presbyterians won, A to 3, in a
finely played contest. Noble Best
occupied the port at the head of tha
diamond myelocoele for the Calvin
lists, while Geery McCracken, with his
good espringal arm, did the honors
for the Waldensians, with Moore
wearing the laticlave of the catcher's
authority, while E. Newell kyked
through the steel-laticed gorgoneion
for the Petrobrusians.
The game had an exciting finish.
Hackett, with one out, was issued
free lation to first, and daringly la
trocined the keystone and penuliti-
mate stations, but Best garhed like
the Laird of Skibo, pitching with
gorgonic fierceness, famed the next
two men, and the crowd lifted its eyes
to the horizon of home.
Before the game, Master Charley
Gilmore, ever lavish with his Heaven
sent gift, sang angels Ever Bright
