Bates Pleads Guilty,
Indian Bureau Official Sentenced to
Jail in Whisky Case

the United States Indian Service.
Recently Allotting Agent Charles H.
Bates was convicted of introducing
liquor into the Pine Ridge Indian Res
ervation in South Dakota and SEN
fenced to sixty days in Jail. But
through political pull in Indian circles,
sentence was suspended for sixty
days in order to give him a chance to
appeal tc President Taft for a pardon.
The story of the affair is character
istic of intrigue in the Interior De-
partment. 1t appears that some time
ago, Bates, who is something of a
travelling booze emporium, was caught
red-handed Juggling a quantity Of
whisky on to the Pine Ridge Indian
Reservation. The capture was made
by young officer of the booze sup
preston service. Jacob P. Brandt, who
happens to be Good Templar and an
honest man. He is one of the bunch
left over from the service as organized
by former Chief Officer Johnson.
When Brandt found that he had cap
tured real allotting agent of the
Indian Office and man of political
pull with the powers that be, he al
most had fit, fearing vengeance from
Washington. So he took the matter
up with his superiors and they took
it up with Washington.
Inasmuch as Bates was a political
friend of Acting Indian Commissioner
F. H. Abbott, there was a pretty how
de-do in Washington and Abbott
found himself in a dilemma But he
craftily tried to dodge the matter by
issuing orders to the booze suppress
sion service to prosecute the case.
Officer Brandt went at the game
with energy. The grand jury was in
session and it promptly returned an
indictment against Bates charging him
with the crime and Bates was held for
trial in penal bond.
Here Commissioner Abbott got IN
his fine Italian hand. Having made
record of ordering the prosecution"
he attempted to Illustrate the same
prosecution and privately tried to in
duce the United States district attor-
ney to dismiss the Indictment.
The United States district attorney
not caring to make his office political
football refused Abbott's overtures
and forced the prosecution of Bates to
an issue. At the same time, he init
mated, so it is said, that he would
not insist upon the extreme penalty of
two years in the penitentiary.
The upshot of the matter was that
an attempt was made to avoid the
scandal of a public trial and Bates
quietly pleaded guilty and the poll
ticians fixed it up so that sentence was
suspended for sixty days in order to

SHOULD BE Favored
ADDITION TO EGGNOGS NEED NOT
BE OF INToXICANTS.
Valuable Food for InvaIids May Be
Made PalatabIe in a Number of
Ways Agreeable to Opponents
of Strong Liquor.

Chilled eggnogs are not served as
often as they should be. They are
specially valuable for invalids during
the heated weather, because they are
not only refreshing but nourishing as
well. An eggnog is hardly more than
custard IN it's raw state, especially If
spirits are left out.
This drink may be served in an end
less number of ways, and teetotalers
can enjoy to their hearts content egg
nogs without spirits that are simply
but deliciously favored with orange,
coffee, vanilla, nutmeg or chocolate.
A plain eggnog of any kind may be
turned into festive beverage If topped
with whipped cream or ice cream and
a bit of candied fruit. The white of
egg so often recommended should not
be added unless the 'nog" is heavily
favored, as it is apt to impart a raw,
eggy taste.
Chocolate Eggnog-For a chocolate
eggnog use tablespoonful of grated
chocolate, tablespoonful Of sugar and
a large new egg to every half-pint of
rich chilled milk. Melt the chocolate
and sugar together to paste, then
add the egg yolk and stir the mixture
into the milk, beating well so that the
egg will not separate from it. When
ready to serve add a big spoonful of
whipped cream or ice cream to each
glass. If preferred, the whipped
cream may, for variety's sake, be
partly frozen. This forms a very rich
beverage, almost meal in itself.
When a coffee eggnog is properly
made it is delicious. 1t may be pre-
pared like the chocolate drink, using
in place of the chocolate enough strong
coffee to give it a fine flavor. The
same proportions may be used with
other flavors.

ties that confront the transportation bust
ness IN New England and asked for that
cooperation and friendly sentiment which
eventually would solve the problems. In

Mr.. POSTMASTER and Members of the
Chamber of Commerce of Boston,
There is an old saying that reads,
Mans work lasts till set of sun; wo
mans work Is never done" This is true
about the railroad. It's work is never
done. Men may think they have provid
ed sufficient transportation facilities for
years to come, but the growth of the
country is so great that things that look
ed far too big a few years ago are far
too small now For New England to grow,
as she will in common with the rest of
the country, she must have a compre-
hensire, adequate and safe system of
transportation. The new capital needed
in this section for each increase of 81 of
