ICE BOX ROBBER
Visits the Riverdale Farm
and Makes Himself at
Home.
(From Fridays Daily.)

When Mrs. L. Ii. Palmer of the
Riverdale farm went to the ice box on
the back porch of the Palmer home
this morning to get beefsteak and
butter for breakfast it was much like
Old Mother Hubbard when she went
to the cupboard to get her poor dog "a
bone; when she got there the icebox
was bare.and so the Palmers got none.
During the time between dusk and
dawn a stranger had pasted that way
and removed the contents of the box.
Who it was is mystery. There was
stolen four pounds of choice dairy
butter and three pounds of delicious
steak.

CONGRESSMAN ESCH WINS.

CONGRESSMAN Esch has. won his
fight to prevent "phossy jaw" by plac-
ing a tax on white PHOSPHORUS which
is used in the manufacture of certain
kinds of matches. The poison in The
phosphorus causes the workmen in
the match factories to have the horri-
BILE disease known as "phossy jaw
The bill has passed both houses of con-
gress and tax of two cents per hun
dred will oe5imposed. The only rea-
son for using the deadly substance is
that it is cheaper than the substitute
used in the Diamond Match company's
patented process, and the company last
year generously waived its right to the
patent. Thirty Democratic members OF
the House who voted against the bill
argued that the states rather than Con-
gress should take the needed action ,Ibut
the question of states rights in the
matter can safely be left to the courts
to decide. In the senate Bailey OPP
posed on the ground that the taxing
power should not be used in this
manner. The additional tax will pre-
vent the use of the poisonous element.

In Memory Of John Mcintyre, J'

Our son from us is taken
To happier home, we know,
Yet on earth we'll ever miss him
No matter where we go.
He is laid at rest forever
While the tide of life flows DER,
And we hope some day to meet hin
On that bright and happy shore.
Though our home is greatly shat
tered
Aud our boy we miss each day,
We must place our trust in Heaven
When mighty death has sway.
So We'll strive to do our work here
For our short time left below,
And when life for us is ended
To our boy we hope to go.
