TOLD TO WASH CELERY.
Agricultural Experts Discover Poi
son as Result of Spray.

Warning has been issued by the De-
partment of Agriculture to all celery
eaters that they should be careful to
wash their celery before eating it. 1t was
discovered by the bureau Of chemistry.
Which has in charge the enforcement of
the pure food law that most celery is
sprayed with Bordeaux mixture a
precaution against the blight.
Bordeaux mixture contains sulphate of
copper, and careful analyses showed
that in some cases there was as much as
twenty-three parts of Sulphate of copper
in 1,OD,COJ parts of celery. In this case
ii man ate two and a quarter pounds OF
celery he might get a sixth of a grain OF
copper. The famous referee board of
the Agricultural Department has decided
that sulphate of copper is a deleterious
ingredient in human food, so householders
are warned. that they had better wash all
celery, else the yare liable to get a frac-
tional dose of sulphate of copper if they
only eat enough celery.

Tells of His Campaigns.

=
first important expedition was with Gen.
Arnold on the campaign into Canada At
that time he was aid to Gen. Mont
Quebec Young Burr's next assignment
was as aid to Gen. Arnold. who was in
command of the invading army at that
time. Later he was aid to Gen Putnam
and was present at the battles of Long
Island and White Plains
The papers also declare that Burr was
made lieutenant colonel by Gen. Wash
ingtoa; that his health became impaired
and that he made several attempts TO
resign on that account. and his resigna-
ton was accepted condtionally and with
protest by Gen. Washington. but before
it took effect Gel. Burr was persuaded
to undertake the destruction OF British
blockhouse on the Bronx river. which
he accomplished most successfully. and
was then persuaded to forego his inten-
ton to resign and continued in active
service until 1871.
Letter From Washington.
Among other papers in the file is a
Washington. dated Headquarters Fred
erick, IS October. IT'S" The substance
of this letter is found in the following
quotation:
You I'm my opinion carry your ideas
of delicacy too far. when you propose to
drop your pay while the recovery of
your health necessarily requires your alb
sence from the service. 1t is not GUS
tomary, and 1t would be unjust. You,
therefore. have leave to retire until your
health Is so far re-established as to en-
able you to do your duty.

be $48,0G0, and at $4 per ounce $64, 0O0- If this revenue is regarded as indfs- pensable or so important as to neceS- Sitate the continuance of a, traffic at once barbarous, useless and destruc- tive to the interests of our farmers, an equal source of revenue may be found in paragraph 289 in Schedule 'G'' by imposing the same duty on game birds as on poultry.
 To accomplish this, amend paragraph 2S9 to read:
 Poultry, live, cents per pound; poultry and game birds, dead, cents per pound
 The present provision which imposes a duty of cents a pound on poultry and allows game birds to be imported free is class legislation. It is the height of injustice in these days of high prices to require a. poor man to pay @ duty of 5 cents pound on his poultry, while the wealthy patron of the high class restaurant and hotel can obtain his game birds free of duty. Under the present tariff exemptions, the importation of game birds from Europe has increased enormously. As many as 25,0GO birds are known to have been imported on a single vessel servation Commission of New York show that since the new law went into effect, in 1911, prohibiting the sale of native game and requiring foreign game to be tagged, game birds to the number of 492, 400 have been tagged. If the average of these birds is taken at a pound and a half, the in1pOrta- tions of New York City alone would net about S37.OO0

gether and thoroughly an evil.

A friend of mine summed up the problem in a concise sentence. We went into a restaurant. As we passed through the doors an alert individual fairly jerked our hats out of our hands and gave us brass checks to return. When we departed forked over a dime for my hat MT. friend failed to produce and ignored the scowl. Going out, he turned to me with the remark, T never tip for voluntary service.
 I questioned him further, and he continued after this fashion:
 When I demand service, such as ciative of what receive. If the wait CT does his best with the order and makes me enjoy my meal he has earn ed a little extra money, and tip him cheerfuIIy When ask for service I tip judfciousIy if the service is satis- factory If it is not satisfactory l fail to come across.
 For voluntary service nobody should tip. When I am washing my hands in the washroom of a station and somebody hands me a towel I am reaching for already don't think that I am obliged to shell out ten cents If somebody persists in brushing me off without my suggesting it he can expect nothing from me for his 1mper- thence. When I enter a restaurant and a man grabs my hat as if could not carry it to my chair he gets noth- ing for his rudenesS-
 'eIf everybody followed this simple rule people would not be subjected to this voluntary service, which is more often an annoyance. Tipping would be what it should be-a stimulant to excellent service

GOV. JOHNSON DEFENDS STAND
 OF CALIFORNIA

Sacramento. Cal, April 25-Gov Johnson has issued a statement in re- gard to the Alien Land bill in which he upholdS the doctrine of State rights and says that California should be able to legislate as it saw fit without such stir of public opinion through out the country. He maintains that what this State is trying to do is only what other States have done and that there is reason why California should be singled out for criticism by the Federal Goverpment or any one else when it's debating proposed laws that are within its constitutional rights.
 The Governor makes the point that not the dignity of Japan but the dig nifty of California Is at stake in the controversy over the alien land law The Executive absolves the State from blame on the ground that Fed eral statutes already have drawn the line which the State now seeks to es- tablish.
 Gov. Johnson defined the position of the legislative majority in the mat ter, trusting that Secretary Bryan, who is his way from Washington to Sacramento to present the views of the Federal Administration. might learn thereby the attitude of Califor- mia toward a law denying land own ership in the State to aliens barred from citizenship in the Nation.

eye all his patients here had had full attention since his return from Provi- dence. He gave the impression that the Federal cases at Seton could wait.
 It is understood that the doctor. be- ing disappointed with his general re- ception in this country, wants to fn- ish up his work here and in Canada' and get back to Berlin. He has re- peatedly said he will leave as soon as his mission is ended"
 Word from Berlin that his patients want him back has also had it's ef- feet on Dr. Friedmaun.
 It was said yesterday that pr Frfedmann was ready to pack up his cultures and return to Germany at the end Of his first week here because of the hostility to him. but that he de- cided to remain when the opportunity of the clinic at Dr. George Mannheim CTS office was opened to him.

 morning at Steinert's music store. While the demand for seats among the active and associate membership of the organization has been brlsk, the extensive seating capacity of the Arm ory leaves open many choice selections to be made by the public. However, the interest already manifest in the rendition of The Creation by the Oratorio society assisted by several noted so1oists and a remarkably able orchestra of 40 pieces, indicates that the public sale will also be brisk and 1t thus behooves those who would be sure of pleasing location of seats to make selections at once

FRIEDMAN GIVES SECOND INJECTION
 TO HIS PATIENTS

New York, April 25-Dr. Friedmann administered second injections yester- day for the first time in this city. This phase of his tuberculosis treat ment, which he has insisted it's most essential part. took place at the Hospital for Deformities and Joint Dis eases. The cases, twelve in number, were taken from those treated there early in March.
 Dr. Friedmann spent half a day at his work at the hospital. He examined the f1fty-odd patients whom he has treated there, all of them suffering from tuberculosis of surgical nature
 The twelve on whom he thought the first administration of his culture had had the correct effect were, with one or two exceptions, children. There were only six adults in the fifty brought before him.
 Every one of the patients at the De- formities hospital clamored for a sec ond treatment. Dr. Friedmann said he had to refuse the majority because haste in giving the second treatment is likely to be dangerous.
 Word had been passed about liar lem that Dr. Fr1edmann would treat practically any case of tuberculosis that was presented at the Deformities hospital The result was that when he arrived the street was damned with wouId-be patiente.
 Of the many who applied eleven finally were selected for first treat ment They were mostly children, and with the exception of lupus case and gland case all had tubercular joints.
 It is likely that pr. Friedmann will leave New York as soon as the condi- ton of his patients here will allow 1t, or as soon as complete arrangements have been made whereby he can in trust his work here to others. Those who are helping him are of the inn pression that his business affairs here will be wound up in a week.
 He emphasized yesterday the point that with the exception of the Seton Hospital cases under the Governments
