lnS to his story, his case being post
poned from time to time for further
investigation. At the time of his ar
rest he was in the company of a
drunken Mexican, who had a gun on
Rim. The Mexican, he says, was re-
leased the next day

jan, Gustav Bauch, the American en-
glneer, was taken from his cell, Cal
Ilvan SAYS, and was never seen after
wards. He believes he was executed.
Galivan tells a rather lurid story of
conditions In the Juarez jail. Little
food IS given the prisoners TO eat
they have no bedding on which to
sleep and on cold nights must walk
to keep from freezing. The prisoners
are worked on the streets in the dav-
time, while at night they dig graves
and bury victims Of the firing SQUAD.
Every night and morning. Gallfvau
relates, shots can be heard on the exc
ecutlon ground, showing that execu-
uons are practically of daily occur
ence.
So far as Gallivan knows, the Amer
lean consul never visits the Jaurez
Jail-Or at least he did not while ne

Cramer Finds eroxide
Not Good For Chickens

Pennyan, n. Y, Feb. 26.-With only

fine flock OF chickens, John Cramer
president of the board of education,
has lost all the faith he had in
peroxide of hydrogen as an egg
bleacher
Cramer wanted to sell his prize
flock. He was told by a prospective
purchaser VINO looked at some of the
eggs that the eggs were not white
enough Tor the NCW York market,
to which he was shipping.
A friend advised him that small doses
OF peroxide of hydrogen, fed in water
or mash, would aid his hens to produce
eggs of the proper degree Of white
ness. He tried the experiment and the
eggs grew whittier but not fast enough
to suit them. He then increased the
doses but his hens soon stopped lay
ing eggs OF any color, and a week ago
one of them died. Today all that was
lett OF his flock was one old rooster,
which Mr.. Cramer would like to give
away.
