Was Bitten by Bedbuo

Milwaukee,, Wis.,, Dec. 22.-If you
were quietly slumbering in a berth on
a swiftly moving train and a cimex
lec%tularius, alias bedbug, crept up and
bit you, would you sue for $4,000?
That is what a Milwaukee citizen,
who arrived from the west recently
has done. The defendant in the suit
is the st. Paul road, and the case will
be tried in Montana, where the 'of-
fense' is said to have been commit
ted. The Milwaukee man, whose
name is not known here, who is suing
the road declares that this cimex lee
tularis had gone the limit when he
met him in the night.
When the man arrived in Milwau.
kee he carried one arm in a sling, and
he claimed that he had been made so
ill that his business was interfered
with.

Wood Alcohol Affects EYES

Washington, Dec. 17.-One of the
serious limitations of the food and
drug act is that it allows the use of
wood alcohol in remedies for external
application. department Of agriculture
officials declare. Their attention has
been called to a report by the New
York committee on the prevention of
blindness. which alleges that half the
cases of eye weakness may be traced
to the use by BARRIERS of wood alcohol
in bay rum or other face lotions.
Under the definition OF drug in the
federal food and drug act, it is not
possible for the authorities to control
cosmetics containing injurious drugs
and remedies for obesity and lean
ness, or to keep manufacturers from
putting wood alcohol into external
applications. Authority should be
given, Secretary Houston declares, to
require statements of other drugs
than those which must now be declar-
ed on the label.

more than 1000 saloonkeepers in Chi
cago appeared today IN defense of the
saloon free lunch, before a special
council committee. Representatives
OF scores Of others appeared to argue
a bill a%bolishing lunches in saloons.
One saloonkeeper said if the lunches
were abolished the CITY would not
face the problem of feeding $4,000
tramps each winter. They are drawn
here by free lunches, he said.
1t was asserted that the serving of
lunches prevented $4,000 cooks and
walters from getting work in the city.
The alderman who introduced the
ordinance declared it was his purpose
to make men 60 home for dinner at
night instead Of standing at a bar and
telephoning home that they were de-

WASHINGTON News Notes

Washington, Dec. 1S.-Representa-
tive Evans has introduced in the
house a bill to accept the cessiOn by
Montana of jurisdiction over lands in
Glacier park.
A monument in each state along
the Canadian boundary to mark the
line and commemorate 100 years of
peace between the United States and
Great Britain, was proposed in a bill
today by Senator Jones of Washing
ton which asks a 100000 a~ppropria-
ton for the purpose.
Senator Thomas J. Walsh is max
ing efforts to secure the early ap-
pointment of Henry Fisher, of Helena,
as assayer at the Helena assay office.
Mr.. Fishers appointment has been
recommended by Senators Walsh and
Myers and in view Of the appointment
of an assayer for the Salt Lake City
assay Office, they are looking for an
early appointment for the Helena Of
flee.
The Butte postoffice has reported to
the postoffice department that during
the first two months of the operation
of the postal savings bank $150,OOO
in deposits were refused on account
of the restrictions on the amount that
a person could deposit at one time
or in II month. 1t was stated that
at Butte there are many inquiries as
to the possibility of the restrictions
being removed. The postmaster said
they should be removed and it would
be popular with the laboring class.
Had there been no restriction on the
amount of deposits, he says that in
stead of $401, 595 now on deposit there
would be $4,000, 900.

Washington, Dec. 1.-THE republi-
cal national committee concluded its
labor for reform in party procedure
tonight, and launched its compaign
for a reunion Of warning elements, by
adopting a resolution providing for a
radical change in the basis of repre-
sentation in national nominating con-
ventions, which would recuce the quo
ia of southern states from 33 to 16
per cent Of the conventions total.
The action of the committee, crit
icised in vigorous trems oy several of
its members, but made unanimous be-
fore adjournment, must be endorsed
by states entitled to cast a majority
of votes in the electoral college be.
fore it becomes party law. In order
that such action shall be taken as
promptly as possible, the committee
appointed a subcommittee of three to
prepare IN address to the states urg-
ing immediate ratification of the pro-
posal. This address will be drawn up
shortly after the Christmas holidays,
and leading members of the commit
tee expressed the hope tonight that it
would be met by early action. APP
prevail by the states will insure a call
from the national committee for the
national convention of 1916, along the
lines laid down today.
