HOLES IN SWISS CHEESE;
 WHAT MAKES THEM
Uncle Sam Sets Experts at Work 10 Give Every Little Cheese
 Channel of It's Own

WASHINGTON, Aug. 1O--Whst makes the holes i- Swiss cheese?
 Deep problems. for whose solution government experts have been seek ing have been laid aside for research into the causes Of the little winding tunnels that penetrate this variety of cheese. The holes. say the men of science, are dollars and cents to the merchant, for they indicate the grade and value of the cheese. So they want to know how the holes may be encouraged to appear more frequently and 10 grow more rapidly.
 Some of the imps of f-chemistry, such as carbon dioxide, nitrogen and hydro gen. have to do with the making Of these holes and the professors with the retorts and the microscopes hope to find q way by which every little cheese may have some channels all it's own.

In a modest cottage in Newport MT. and Mrs. Jack" Geraghty are awaiting the arrival of an heir. in this announcement per SC there is little of interest.
 But let it be remembered that Mrs. Geraghty was Miss Julia Steele French. daughter Of Amos Tuck French, millionaire and aristocrat. and that his daughter eloped with Geraghty a chauffeur. and tho an- nouncement impells attention.
 For the strange part, and the good part, too, is that although the wife forfeited the love of her family she is happy just the same in the love of her husband.
 Now it is being asked: Will the new arrival soften the unrelenting attitude of father and mother Amos Tuck French?

'PROSPECTOR GIVES
 CIEIzEK'S PEDIGREE
Tombstone Has 400 All ifs Own; Some Are l50 Years
 Old or More

The editor of the Tombstone Pros pector has recently been looking uE the pedigree of a number of its prominent citizens. The editor oi the Prospector is known for his remarkable accuracy in getting facts so the more remarkable becomes the following which he submits as a re suit of his research into the personal records of Tombstone. Says the Pros pector:
 Tn this city there are two hun dred men who expect offices, 675 have prospected with Bill Greene 721 have been half owners with Senator Clark. 436 crossed the plains in '49. 300 spent their youth in Butte or Pioche, and. well that foots up S,632.
 Then we have men who steam boated on the Mississippi and it's tributaries for twenty years, fought Indians fifteen more, prospected in Montana ten years, Arizona twen' ty-five years, in Sonora eighteen years, superintended stamp mill for fourteen years, a smelter sixteen years, served eighteen years in the pen and came out fully vindieated, nine years ago, which makes them just 150 years of age with no al, lowance for childhood and they look no more than fifty today. Wonder. ful climate we have for restoring youth"
 Among those who have thrilling stunts to their credit the Prospector omitted the man who slept one night with Governor Hunt at Florence, says the Douglas International.
