NEWARK AND GERMS

G UGGEsT1oN that the State Laboratory be removed
- from Delaware College, Newark, to this city,
where it would be easily accessible Delaware
physicians and serve a useful public purpose,
seemingly does not appeal to Newark folk if the
editorial columns of the Delaware Ledger reflect public
sentiment there with respect to the proposition. The
Ledger says:
1T would be very nice for Wilmington to have
the State Laboratory at Delaware College. Delaware
College is not ready to part with the laboratory yet
but will let Wilmington know when becomes
useless. Wmi ngton, with all her bigness, should
not think Of taking anything away from Newark Is-
tabtsh laboratory of her own and put some OF the
astute doctors to work.
We wish to the people of the delightful town
Of Newark that the people of Wilmington ere not so
porcine to wish to Ike much single germ
away from them for the mere sake of taking it. The
fac is that Wilmington needs laboratory that the
people of the State at large need conveniently
situated and that experience hag demonstrated that
because it is inconvenently situated, the State Labor
aory in Newark is not doing the useful work it would
do were it situated in Wilmington.
From micrococcal point of vie V, Newark is well
come to the State Laboratory. Micrococci make no
particular appeal to Wmingtonans, no matter wheth-
err they be chromogenic zymogenic pathogenic. We
have here as much in the way of Schizomycetous
fungi as we care to have Public interest demands
however, that Wilmington make sacrifice for the
public good Newark is too remote from the other
towns and villages to be States germ cent? e.
The present situation of the State Laboratory is not
fair to the people, the physicians or the germs we
must have archaeological laboratory Of some sort
in Wilmington, and economy demands that the one
owned and maintained by the State in Newark be
removed this city, where it will do real good and
be easily accessible to most of the physicians and
germs We are surprised that Newark objects, and
that it has become attached to its germs that it
dislikes to give them up It merely to show that
nature has failed to provide adequate regulation Of
the drift of affection. The ardor with which the
Delaware Ledger defends the interests of Newark as
germ-centre is enough 10 cause the pneumococci and
the typhococci to wag their tails and bark.

HAS CHAMPION BEARD.

JAMESTOWN, N. D., May TO-
Hans N. Langseth holds the worlds
championship in the matter Of boards,
as it is said he can boast Of the
adornment of his face with II feet
and six inches of beautiful wavy whis'
kers. He is a resident of Barnes
county and came from the town Of
Langseth in Norway, from where also
came Anton Langseth of this city.
Hans Langseth has cultivated his
beard with much pride and care for
about thirty-six years. 1t has grown
about four inches a year. Mr.. Lang
seth claims that instead OF hind
rance It is of real value as he uses it
for a chest protector in cold weather.
He used to travel with circus and
some years ago was a side show at
traction at Jamestown. A recent is
sue of The Scientific American gave
his picture and beard and few facts
concerning both.

Mr.. TAFT to Help Contractors Collect
$650,000 Cuban Claim.


$e5O,0O0 Cuban Claim.
Bringing with them the assurances
of President Taft that he would in
vestigate personally their claim
against the government of Cuba, three
associates of Hugh Reilly in the con-
struction Of the water works system
at Cienfuegos, returned from Wash
ington Sunday and will leave New
York this week, for Havana, to look
after the collection Of $650,000 which
they say is still due on their contract,
the delegation was headed by Hugh
J. Reilly, Jr., son of the contractor.
This is the second protest which
the Reilly firm has made to President
Taft. The first was made two months
ago, and the Cuban secretary of the
treasury, Senior Manuel Sanguiny,
was accused of holding up the final
certification of the work. which was
completed seven months ago. Ac.
cording to one of Mr.. Reilly's associ-
ates, the work was to cost $1,000, 900,
which, with the exception Of the final
payment of $650,000 was paid from
time to time as the work progressed.
When the water works were COM
pleted, he said, application was made
to the Havana officials for a final Ger
LITIGATION so that the final instalment
might be collected, but this certifica-
ton was delayed SO long that protest
was made to Washington. President
Taft instructed Arthur Beaupre,
American minister at Havana, to in
quire into the delay and Mr. Beaupre
reported he could obtain no salts
faction. Then the contractors decid-
ed to come to Washington, and OBJ
tanned an interview with President
Taft. Mr.. Taft, they said, expressed
surprise that the claim had not been
paid, and assured them that he would
take the matter up with President
Gomez direct.

When explanations are sought no
satisfactory reasons are given. Vento

The trouble appears to lie in the

PUTNAM COUNTY
MAN FOR EXCHANGE
Old Way Of Marketing Oranges
is Suicidal.

The last number OF the Florida Grow
er, organ of the Florida Citrus Ex-
change, contains an article from Mr.. S.
c.. Warner of the Esperenza Fruit Co.'S
grove below Palatka, and which the
News reproduces in. the hope shat il
will be read by every orange grower In
this county:
"While | appreciate to some degree
how desirable ii would be to get the
larger growers into the Exchange-what
gain it would be to control a larger
percentage of the crop, never for an
instant conceived that such calamity to
the citrus industry of Florida could oc-
cur as the dissolution of the Exchange.
What does it all mean, anyway? This
season we have been adding to our acre
age on the strength of the Exchange.
have advised some of my neighbors to
do the same, and they are planning to
plant additional trees on my assurance
of what the Exchange means. With the
Exchange out of business would con-
slider a depreciation in value of our
grove property of rs per cent "a very
moderate estimate of the loss
Il have had my feelings toward the
"outside" growers, who so thoroughly
appreciate the advantages OF the Ex-
change members, but as some of the
outsiders are most excellent aud respect
ed friends of mine, have felt more con-
fusion than resentment. Why in the
name of common sense we do not con-
troll rs per cent of the fruit do not un-
derstand. The commission men ! used
to ship to were honest, fully believe,
and, without the Exchange | would go
back to them, and as to that trouble |
have no kick, but as to any comparioon
between the old haphazard un-businesS-
like and suicidal way OF doing our mar
keting and the Exchange-well, |
thought we had reached the Mecca for
which we had been hoping for so many
years. II we have TO quit there will be
enough "fond regrets" when it is too
late, lying around loose to buy half the
groves in Florida.
Last season the Esperanza Brand
gained "a cents per box over any past
record for prices; this season we will
better this by some 20 cents. With the
extinction of the Exchange we will look
for slump of at least so cents TO 81. 90
per box-well ii is simply inconceivable.
That is just how we feel about ii. We
thought we had found firm ground un-
der our feet.
.'If we have to go back 10 the old
blessed() way, we will at least have you
people TO thank for an improvement in
pack, which seems to have put us up
where we can, at least, do about as well
as the "other fellow"
''If you have any members who will
shout more heartily and honestly for the
Florida Citrus Exchange than ourselves,
we will be pleased TO meet them and
shake hands. Sincerely, y

MOST FAMOUS
TRAMP In WORLD
Pays PaIatka Short Visit Tues
day Mint.

The most famous tramp in all the
world crawled out from place under
meath an Atlantic Coast Line coach on
train No.. IS, last Tuesday afternoon.
This tramp, clothed in jumpers and cov-
cred with dust, looked the part, but
When he had cleaned up and appeared
on the street he looked the prosperous
man OF business.
He called on the News editor, lin
gered about the city three or four hours,
and then took the Clyde river steamer
for Sanford.
This famous tramp is known in all
parts of the world as "a. No. l." With
him tramping is habit that he says it
would be impossible to quit. He has
been 20 years a wanderer up and down
the face of the earth, and in all that
time has kept faithful account of the
number OF miles travelled. The total is
now nearly 500, 900 miles.
He has been around the world three
times. He speaks four languages. He
has prevented many wrecks, wears good
clothes, a watch and all necessary toilet
articles but carries no baggage.
He has a memorandum book full of
cards and letters given him by railroad
officials. Many of these tell of wrecks
he has averted and possible loss of hu-
man life avoided by telling train opera
tors of broken car wheels and other dis
arrangements of the running gear.
"a No 1" has mission. 1t is to keep
boys from becoming tramps. He says
that in the United States 35O,OO0 boys
run away from home annually, $4,000
become confirmed tramps; 1000 are
crippled by accident and $500 lose their
lives under the cars. When he meets
any of these boys he does his best to get
them to return home. He does not use
tobacco in any form, nor drink liquor.
"a No 1" visited Palatka eight years
ago; Tuesday was his second visit. He
is going all the time, but has found time
to write books on his adventures. One
is the "Life and Adventures of A. No
1" true story of his own blasted life as
a homeless and restless wanderer all
over the world, and "Hobo Camp Fire
Tales" ''the true story of runaway
boy" These books are very entertain
ing and instructive. They are abso
luteIy moral, contain no fiction, or stale
Jokes. They are true stories that are
stranger than fiction, and can be had al
rs cents each at Rowton's.
