Santo Domingo Affairs
Cause Battleship Trip

Washington, d. C.-Reports recent
" emanating from official sources
have said that the United States
steamship Dolphin, which sailed Mon.
day for Santo Domingo, is being sent
there in connection with the "observ-
alton" Of elections to be held in De-
cember, ostensibly for the purpose Of
insuring fairness in the elections. 1t
is said on reliable authority, however,
that the State department is confront
ed with a grave situation in the con-
duct Of its affairs in Santo Domingo
It is learned that certain funds Of
the Dominican government, held tenn.
porarily in the custody of an official
appointed by the President Of the
United States, have been transferred
from the Bank of St. Mitchellens 70
the Banco National without authority
from Washington.
The American minister OF oan~
Domingo, James Mark Sullivan wro'e
to the receiver general OF customs
Walter Wick, authorizing him %
make this transfer of funds. Inc
owner Of the Banco Nacional, N NJ
Jarvis, was friend of Mr.. SulllVans
before his appointment as minister.
The power to grant such autnollV
lies solely with the officials OF 1ns
bureau Of insular. affairs OF the mu
Department. It was said at tne W
reau Of insular affairs that the uaD'
fer was not made on orders.

given first place among Holstein cows,
8 years old and over, in a field Of II
entries. Professor Circuit, Of Duluth,
who judged Hosteins and Ayrshires,
studied for more than an hour before
making his decision on this lot.
It is probable that Kasper Jenny, Of
Brush Prairie, heretofore inactive
Holstein breeder, will take high honors
with his aged Holstein bull. which al
ready has won the blue ribbon in his
class.
The Holstein herd Of w. K. Newell,
of CASTOR, Or, also has made good
showing.
G. M. Harvey, of Salem, won honors
in Duroc Jersey hogs. the University
of Idaho in Oxford Dawn sheep, and
J. L Chapman in carload lots Of sheep.
Visitors at the Livestock Show
crowded about the Jersey building, not
SO much to see the judging as to visit
"Ula of Fairacres," the yearling
heifer Of the Stump herd that recently
won the championship Of the world at
the National Dairy Show in Chicago.
In fact the whole Stump herd came in
for much attention.
Tom Dempsey, Of Westerville, O.,
who judged the Jerseys, says that the
Stump herd is competent to compete
against anything in America.
Il am surprised at the quality OF
stock l found out here" said Demp-
sey. "This is a strictly Western
show. There is no Eastern stuff here,
but the whole display is much better
than many that / have seen in the
East.
"While I say that the Stump herd
has q right to show against the East
ern breeders, am not saying that the
other Jerseys are not competent to en-
gage in the same competition.
speak of the Stump cattle principally
because they made the best record.

5OO-YEAR-OLD BOY Is
ANCIENT PERUVIAN MUMMY

New York A 5O0-year-old boy
came to New York Saturday in a
wooden box 10 by IL by 6 inches.
The boy was IL years old when num-
mifed some five hundred years ago.
The mummy was found in the noun
tains of Peru by Thomas G. Taylor, of
Montreal, and was admitted to the
country without payment of duty I'M
der the clause in the tariff providing
for the free entry of antiquities.
Mr.. Taylor said he thought the
mummy was that of an Inca boy. The
centuries it had passed within the
tomb failed to dim the luster of its
black hair. The body was embalmed
with the head drawn down to the
knees and had shrunk to oily frac-
ton of its original proportions. The
binding cloths, rotted by time, still
chung to the body.

Judge Raps Method
Of Paying P0stmasters

Savannah, Ga.-Judge William B.
Sheppard in the United States court
scored the government for it's method
of paying its fourth-class postmasters
according to stamp cancellations. Lee
H. Baisden, postmaster of Pembroke,
was convicted of making false returns.
The judge gave him 60 days in Jail.
Judge Sheppard declared the govern
ment, perhaps, was as much RESPONSE
BILE as the culprit in such cases. He
said the method of paying fourth-class
postmasters was simply pitfall for
the unwary, and that young and ire
sponsible boys having many of those
positions were often forced by tempta-
ton to fall into the trap to exc out a
livelihood. He said the government
ought to pay the men salaries.

FIGHT STOPS AT
ADMIRAL'S WORD
U. S. Gunboat Threatens to Fire
On COmbatants.
Foreigners at Tampico Ordered to
Congregate at Shore Rebels
Repairing Railroads.

Mexico Rear Admiral Fetch
er, commander of the American naval
force in Mexican waters, Saturday or
dered the rebels and federals fighting
at Tampico to cease firing, threaten
ing to open up on them with the guns
Of the gunboat Wheeling If his orders
were not obeyed. The order was COM
piled with.
This information is contained in q
dispatch received by Sir Lionel Car
den, the British ambassador, from
Rear Admiral Sir Christopher Grad
dock, of the British cruiser Berwick,
which is lying off Tampico.
The federals hold the center Of the
town of Tampico and the water front.
Rear Admiral Fletcher ordered fore
igners to take refuge on board ships
or to congregate on the water front,
where they would be under the protec-
tion of his guns.
How many rebels are engaged in the
attack on Tampico is not known, but
it is estimated that their number is at
least twice that of the federals and
their operations indicate that they ex-
pect more men from Victoria, capital
of the state of Tamaulipas, which lies
half way between Tampico and Mon
terey.
The rebels, who are in possession of
the railroad yards and shops and large
stores of material and equipment,
have detached from their lines suffi-
cient men to undertake repairing the
railroad north and west from Tampico
toward Victoria. The damage that
has been done this line, while enough
to prevent the operation of trains, is
not so great that it will long delay q
resumption of traffic. Most Of the
destroyed bridges are small and can be
easily repaired.
Repairs to the roads southwark
from Victoria also are being rushed,
and it is not improbable that the reb-
els will be able to transport fresh
troops and additional artillery supplies
in time to use them at Tampico before
the government can send reinforce
ments to the port.

CANCER MICROBE FOUND
BY NOTED SCIENTIST

Montpelier, France-Dr. Bose, pro-
lessor Of pathological anatomy at the
University of Montpelier, who has
been making extensive Investigations
into cancer, declares he has discovered
the microbe Of the disease. It is of
the protozoa type and is found prici-
pally in water. A large number Of in
sects, fish and warm blooded animals
act as carriers.
Professor Bose says he has traced
several cases of cancer to insect bites
and pricks from fish bones. He has
also found intestinal cancer prevalent
in villages where snails are eaten in
large quantities.

Dried or Frozen Eggs
to Replace Cold Storage

Washington, D. c. DR.. Mary =.
Pennington, in charge of food research
work of the department Of agriculture,
told the house agricultural committee
that frozen and dried eggs would solve
the problem of high prices and cold
storage corners.
"Frozen and dried eggs" said DR..
Pennington, "soon will be marketed
in small packages SO as to be available
to every household instead Of for bak-
ers and other manufacturers as at
present. Hard frozen eggs will keep
a year, and there is no question that
dried and frozen eggs will ultimately
displace the cold storage variety"
Eggs cannot be kept in cold storage
and be fit for food longer than ten
months, she asserted, and added that
dried and frozen eggs do not lose any
of their nutritive value.
The nation-w wide inquiry has tended
to put the department of Justice on
the side of the department of agricul-
ture, placing much of the blame for
high egg and poultry prices not on
cold storage men but on the hen.
According to reports so far at hand
cold storage men have suffered from a
marked lack of eggs and other prod
ucts and the prices have gone up for
this reason.
United States attorneys have sent
word to Washington in many instances
that cold storage dealers in their ter
ritory have stocks on hand far under
stocks in previous years and that they
see little prospect of relief.

Leonardo da Vinci's great painting,
which was stolen from the Louvre in
Paris more than two years ago, has
been found. It is now in the hands of
the Italian authorities and will be re-
turned to France.
Mona Lisa, . or "La Joconde," as
it is more popularity known, the most
celebrated portrait of woman ever
painted, has been the object of ex-
haustive search in all quarters of the
globe. The mystery of it's abstraction
from the Louvre, its great intrinsic
value and the strange fascination of
the smile of the woman it portrayed
model, Lisa del Giocondo, the wife
of wealthy Florentine-have COM
bined to keep alive interest in its re-
coverY.
