SAY: CONSUMERS
ARE DEFRAODED
Special to The Tribune.


SAN ANTONIO, Texas. Jan. 25.-
In it's campaign to require full weight
in cured meats, such as hams and
bacons, the State Pure Food Depart
men, purposes an investigation into
the manner of treating" these pro-
ducts, which is alleged to be a fraud
and deception on an uneuepecting
public. It is claimed that some meats
are purposely cured with as much
moisture left in them as can be safely
done, thus adding to the weight while
the meats are not properly cured for
consumption. The practice of wrap
ping tho hams and bacons in heavy
paper which, weighed with the meat
when sold, is included in the present
high prices of these products. Salt
pork in sides is heaped over with
heavy coating or coarse salt which
absorbs water like a sponge, and
many grocers are said to sprinkle
salt pork bins every morning in order,
that the sales may show heavy
weight.
Great quantities of salt meats are
consumed by millions of the poor,
the greatest profit is in that class Of
food, and the money Is .axen from the
people that can least afford to lose
it. The State Pure Food Department
will endeaver to stop this cheat and
deception imposed on the public.

LOCATE Original
Lines Of ALAMO
Special to The Tribune.

Special to The Tribune.
SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS. Jan. 25-
Old timers now are trying to locate
the original lines Of the Alamo fort
ress while workmen q re busy en-
gagged in tearing down portions Of the
structure known to have been erected
since the great battle for Texas In
dependence when the Alamo fell and
the heroic band of defenders was
slaughtered.
What is usually known as the Ala
mo building was the church about
which the fort was built and which,
except for some net tessary repairs and
the addition of a roof, is very much
as it was a century ago. Some time
after the war when Texas won Nber.
ty the property surrounding the
church building was acquired by priv
ate interests and considerable
portion Of it used for many years for
commercial purposes. Several years
ago the property was restored to the
state and now it is the purpose to re-
store it as nearly as possible to it's
original ruined condition following
the fall of the Alamo, and to beautify
the ruins in an artistic manner 80
the historic remembrance may be pre-
served to the people. Considerable
dispute has risen regarding the orig
inal lines, but the Daughters of the
Republic of Texas, the custodians Of
the property, are using every means
in their power to ascertain them.

The press continues to make en-

matter of no Importance. The sugges-
ton is made here that Italy cede her
East African possessions to Turkey as
compensation for the loss of Tripoli.
Some significance is attached to
the fact that this suggestion is forth

YOUNG MAN CUTS A SWELL.
Dashing Youth Puts il Over Auto
and Real Estate Dealers, as
Well as Girls.

A curious story is going the rounds
among farmers residing southwest of
Algona. Two or three months ago a
dashing youth who gave his name as
Orange Johns entered the employ
temporarily of one of the Runcheys.
Nobody knew his history but he told
an apparently truthful story concern
ing a big estate to which he had re-
Gently fallen heir and was believed.
He let it be understood that he eX-
pected by any mail to receive a re-
mittance of at least 100000. A
West Bend automobile dealer swal-
lowed the bait and sold him $1,000
automobile on the representation
that the purchase price would be paid
within two months. With his ma
chine Johns cut big figure in the
neighborhood. All the girls set their
caps for him and he had merry
time travelling with them about the
country. After a time he expressed
an intention TO purchase several
farms. That set the real estate men
on his trail and it is said that there
were some pretty shrewd Algonians
who wasted considerable time and
effort upon him. They secured his
promise to buy and then on the
strength of their sales then invested
in other lands for themselves. Final
ly, after the automobile began to
show signs of hard usage the dealer
who sold it to him began to urge
payment pretty strenuohsly. Seeing
that the game was up, Johns brought
it to Algona and left it at a local
garage, saying that he would return
shortly, From that day to this no
word of him has been received and
now it is considered pretty we'll set
tied that he is a fraud. The young
ladies and the real estate dealers
have for a week or two been lodging
the admiring considerations of their
friends Algona Advance.

CRIME BY GERMAN PEDDLER.
Attempts Assault on Four-Year-Old
Girl East OF Nashua.

Nashua, Oct. 14.-One of the most
dastardly crimes ever sought to be
perpetrated in this vicinity was at
tempted yesterday morning upon the
4-year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs.
William Macaben, who reside few
miles east of Nashua, by an old Ger
man peddler. This man has been
making annual visits to this district
for many years, driving through the
country selling small articles, and
has invariably spent his nights in the
Macaben home. Yesterday morning
when he arrived at the Macaben home
it was apparent that he was under
the influence of liquor, although but
little attention was paid to his con-
dition. However, when Mr.. Macaben
went to the field he took advantage
of the mother and children being
alone to attempt to outrage the little
child, and would, perhaps, have ac-
complished his purpose had not Mrs.
Macaben glanced through a window
to the yard where the two were and
saw what was being done. She at
once flew to the rescue of her babe
and drove the wretch from the place.
Mrs. Macaben then went for her
husband who Immediately came to
town and store out warrant for
the peddler. placed it in the hands
of Marshal KeZer, who went in pur-
suit of the fiend and overlook him
about four miles south of town. He
was placed under arrest and brought
back to town and later sent to Jail
at New Hampton. AS court is sitting
there and the grand jury in session,
it is probable that the old man will
be indicted, tried and sent to the pen
in short order. The man is about 60
years of age and has heretofore con-
Quoted himself so as to secure the
confidence of the people of this
community, but hereafter individuals
of this stamp will be given a cold re-
ception in and about Nashua.
