Legislature We're in prison The reve-

public conscience, and in one Of the
bitterest contests In the history Of
Missouri politics he won the Demo

state. In the campaign he was elected.
while the others on the ticket who
were not fought as he was, were de-
feated. That was in 1904.

MOSAIC LAWS SANITARY
Distinctions Of Permitted and Forbid
!, den Foods vindicated by Science.

Distinctions OF Permitted and Forplo-
/; den Foods vindieated by Science.
There have been gathered a collec-
ton Of facts to prove that the sanitary
laws of Moses were not only on line
with the modern rules Of hygiene, but
in some cases in advance Of them.
The Jew thousands Of years before
Christ, settling in a semi tropical
country, was forbidden to eat pork or
shell fish, and milk was designated as
a source of contagion. In the Talmud
a method of slaughtering animals was
prescribed, which is acknowledged to-
day in our markets as the most sani-
tary.
Five thousand years before Koch
gave to the world the results of his
researches in bacteriology, the Mosaic
law pointed out the danger to man
from tuberculosis in cattle, but did not
forbid infected poultry as food. 1t was
only a few years ago that German
specialists discovered that fowl tuber-
culosis was harmless to man.
The Mosaic law also enforced tine
isolation of patients with contagious
diseases and the burial Of the dead
outside all cities. These hints the
Gentle world did not fully accept un-
til a century or two ago. .,
The wise law -giver prescribed not
only fasting at certain periods OF the
wear, but the removal Of whole families
in summer out to camps, where for a
time they could live close to nature
Many of the laws Of Moses were pre-
scriptions intended for the health OF
both mind and body.-Harper's Week

from its mouth to Pittsburgh; Mis-
souri, river, between Its mouth and
Bismarck, N. D.
Under the provisions Of the Weeks
Mclean law, three months are given
from the time these regulations are
made public until they are presented
to the president for approval and are
finally adopted. It Is also provided
that public hearings may be made IL
deemed proper and 1t Is assumed that
these very probably will be held.
The regulations outlined above, con-
stitute the most sweeping action ever
taken in the country's history to-
wards the protection Of its wild life.
They, of course, take absolute pre-
cedence Of all existing statutes in the
several states with which they come
in conflict. Twenty-Five million or
more of the country's population are
directly or Indirectly concerned with
the subject to which they pertain. It
is claimed that on the whole, the
underlying principles are sound and
well adapted to an urgent need.
Wise discrimination for the most part
seems to have been made in dealing
with species that are relatively
abundant and those that are not hold
ing their own under existing regula-
tions, and there Is evident intent Of
giving a square deal to all sections Of
the country.
A special committee Of three from
the bureau Of biological survey draft
ed the regulations outlined above. It's
members are: T. 8. Palmer, A. X.
Fisher and w. w. Coke. The de-
partment of agriculture has issued
two pamphlets on the subject, one
containing the regulations themselves
and the second an explanation Of
them. These are numbered 90 and

FIRST SHIP, OCTOBER is.
Data Set by Goeths!s for Boat to Pass
Through.

Through.
Col. George w. iGoethals, chief en-
gineer Of the Panama canal, arrived
in New York recently from Colon or
the United Fruit steamship Pastores
and went directly to Washington t.
confer with the president in regard te
the organization of an operating force
for the canal and the future policy OF
the Panama railroad, which is owned
by the government.
Incidentally he will tell the presi-
d,snt when the first ship will be sent
through and may let him know how
long 1t will be before a battleshir
can be sent by way Of the big ditch tc
the Pacific.
The secretary Of war, who summon
ed Colonel Goethals to Washington
probably will question him about the
Notifications of the canal.
Colonel Goethals made light Of the
recent landslides. He said there were
only three and that the one at Zuca-
rache was the worst.
"The canal will be open without fail
on January 1, 1915" he said. IF wa
ter Is allowed in earlier than that and
here the colonel smiled knowingly
II understand 1t will be, we may put q
vessel through on October is this
year."
He was asked to be more specific.
'T mean to put a vessel through" he
said, reven though it is only a fiat
bottomed boat, on that date. If the
experiment is failure"-and the col
onel smiled again-"why, will sim
ply be testing the locks"
Adopting more serious tone, the
colonel declared that one of the boats
and not a fiat bottoned one, Of the
canal commission would be sent
through; it would be a plain matter
of business. The owners of the polar
ship Fran had csked permission to
have the honor of going through first
but the government vessel would take
precedence.
II water were started into the canal
on July there would be enough In
the basin by July 81 to float a battle
ship; that is, there would be 35 feet.
I'm case of emergency, could you
get a battleship through before Octo-
ber?" he was asked.
"That depends how grave the emer-
gency is" he slowly answered.

at work. The general upheaval has
meant the loss of many millions OF
dollars of American and European
capital. These large corporations had
improved labor conditions in the coun-
try marvellously. Where laborers for
merly worked on promise Of 25 or
so cents day and generally were un-
able to collect all Of 1t. they are now
paid from one to three dollars day by
the Americans and Europeans, and
they collect every cent Of 1t. II they
are doing construction work or min
ing, the laborers are forced by the
companies to live in more sanitary
ways than. formerly. And with all
this these laborers hate the foreigners
and especially the Americans.
But how about the Mexicans Of the
higher class, the educated men Of the
city, the people in the higher circles OF
society?" Mr.. Wells was asked.
He said that in Mexico society and
social rating was based on one thing
and one only. money. There is only
one virtue, wealth, and only one crime,
poverty. Mexicans do not say in COM
mendation Of a man, said Mr.. Wells,
that the man comes from q good stock.
or that he or his people are honest. re-
fined or anything Of the sort; but al
ways "muy ricas," meaning very rich.'
Usually Gay and Lovsly.
Mexico City, he said, Is q gay and
lovely place in normal. times, and Is
full of amusements. There Is also
quite large foreign colony there and
plenty of social life. But now, Mr..
Wells said, to one accustomed to- the
capital in its normal condition, Mexico
City appears very dead place. It's
physical appearance has been spoiled
by the severe bombardment It received
recently. And this, said Mr.. Wells. was
one Of the things that testified to the
extremely poor ability of the Mexican
artillery. They hit everything except
what they aimed at. In this connec-
tion he mentioned that Gen. Mondra-
gon, whom President Huerta recently
displaced from his cabinet, was prob
ably the best artilleryman in Mexico
and could have done much work In this
branch If left in his position as minis
ter of war. 90
Mr.. Wells said he wished very much
that he was able to tell Just when
things would settle down in the repubr
lie, so that he might lay his plans for
returning there. He wants to get back
to work there, but he will not go until
there Is a more dependable protection
for foreigners than at present. - >
