MRS. GUINNESS Is REPORTED
CAUGHT IN CANADA

CAUGHT IN CANADA
LaPorte, Ind, March 25.-Carry-
ing an unsigned warrant calling for
the arrest of Mrs. Bella Guinness on
charge of murder, Clinton Cochrane,
former LaPorte marshal, left LaPorte
today for Neville, Saskatchewan,
Canada, to investigate report that
the Mrs. Guinness of murder farm"
fame, is alive and living at Neville.
Neither Cochrane nor the county
authorities believe the Canadian wo-
man is the alleged arch murderess,
but to remove all doubt Cochrane
is making the trip. A man who said
he knew Mrs. Guinness well told the
Canadian mounted police that she
was homesteading a ranch at Neville.

Warning against rake rad1um can
Ger cures was voiced by DR. Carl l..
AlSberg chief chemist OF the depart
ment of agriculture. in his address to
the chemistry section of the associa-
ton. He said that because of the
wonderful cures effected by applica-
ton to cancer of radium rays there
had sprung up host of impostors and
quacks who were foisting alleged
cures upon the public. He added:
Since there now are less than two grams
of radium in the United States and 1t is
valued at $4,000 a gram these claims
scarcely are plausible
Wonders that actually have been ac-
complished in curing cancer through
the use Of radium were described to
the chemical section by DR.. Charles L..
Parsons, chief of the division of min
eralogy in the government bureau OF
mines. He exhibited several photo
graphs showing the results of radium
treatment for cancer.
Lack of cooperation between mine
owners and miners and deficient state
and national regulations OF the mining
industry were blamed for the high
death rate among mine employees by
DIR. Joseph A. Holmes. director Of the
United States bureau of mines, in an
address before the mechanical science
and engineering section. DR.. Holmes
asserted:
The death rate among miners is ma
tional disgrace. 1t is twice to three times
that of European mining countries when
considered on the basis of the number OF
men employed
Applied science will overcome any
disadvantages which tariff reduction

who declared:
With the high degree of utilization OF
waste materials that can be obtained by

DAMAGES FOR SNAKE BITE.
Industrial Hazard" Defined by Com
mission In Washington.

Olympia. Wash. - Rattlesnakes in
Testing the country where road work is
being done constitute an industrial
hazard and workman bitten by a
snake is entitled to compensation from
the state industrial insurance fund,
according TO ruling contained in the
report of the state industrial insurance
commission. The commission granted
a claim for injury benefit.
Other peculiar incidents are recorded
in the report. A boy shot workman
In the eye with an air gun. The com
mission accepted the gun as an indus
trial hazard. and the claim for injury
was paid.
A brutal boss does not constitute a
hazard within the meaning Of the law
as interpreted by the commission, how
ever, and a man who was whipped by
his employer was denied compensation.

A PITFALL FOR cAMPAeNERs

During the congressional campaign
this fall the Republicans will be
angling for the farmer vote by telling
how fearful will be the effect upon the
prices the farmer obtains for his pro
ducts under the new Democratic tariff
law. Mind, the law has been in effect
for over year, and prices have not
been damagingly affected; but the
Republican spellbinders are very sure
they will be. If one Of this kind Of
speeches is made in your neighbor-
hood, call the attention of the speaker
to the fact that on the first day of
May. 1903. three months before the
Payne-Aldrich tariff law was passed.
hogs brought on the great western
market at South Omaha $698 hum
dred pounds. Also remind him that
exactly year later and nine months

enactment Of the tariff law by the
Republicans had anything to do with
this 80 per cent increase in prices.
If he replies that 1t did. then ask
him why upon May 1, 1911, exactly a
year later than the $914 quotation,
hogs we're being quoted on that same
market at 1851? You might add lit
lie more 10 his mental confusion by
asking him to kindly explain why. after
the Democrats had passed tariff
law in 1912, in which the live stock
schedule had been materially lowered
hogs rose on the South Omaha market
from $7.5i ON May /, 1912, to sS.171s
a hundred?
These are official figures and can
be relied upon. The explanation, Of
course, is that the law OF supply and
demand was the dominant factor, The
number Of hogs kept ont by the Re

Gratis OF that barrier was too small In
