HUSBAND BEATS WIFE WHO DOESN'T LIKE
 BEER TASTE ON FOOD.

T love my wife, like she was my mother said John Puriek. 37 Whit ing Lane, to Judge Frederic A Bart lett in the city court this morning when answering to the charge of as- sau1ting his wife. Mary N1ucci.
 John said the cause of the whipping administered was that Mary refused to allow him to place a bottle of beer in the ice box, as she claimed that the odor of liquor spoiled the taste of the food resting in the refrigerator. John has several times appeared in the To- cal court charged with wife beating and Judge Bartlett gave him a repri- nand this morning. He impressed upon his mind the fact that he had no use for wife beaters and then sen- fenced Puriek to two months in the county jail. After listening to the plea of the wife the court then sus- pended the jail sentence with warn ing to John that on his next appear ance on the same charge he would get six months.

FORMER MEMBERS. OF HEALTH BOARD
 ON WIT TNESS STAND
Are Summoned in Action of City Against Garbage
 Plant Bonding Go.

The city garbage scandal which was exploited so fully in 1910 and 1911 was revived again today when the suit of the City of Bridgeport against the Aetna Indemnity Go. of Hartford was heard in the county court house with Attorney James D. Wheeler of New demnity Go. furnished a $1o,ooo bond for the Bridgeport 4By-Products Co., which ~had the garbage reduction com tract. When the company failed to keep it's contract the city brought suit to recover from the bonding company.
 The Aetna company, since this suit was brought, went into the hands of a receiver and Attorney Wheeler was named by the superior court to hear evidence in the cityss suit. The By Products Go, through President Liv- in ngston, gave notice May 6. 1910, that it would suspend the contract with the city because there was too much for eign matter in the garbage. It was claimed that an alarm clock, a statue of an angel and other works of art had been found in the daily collection.
 The Board of Health members de- c1ared this was the first complaint they had received about foreign mai ter. They claimed the real reason for suspending the contract was that somebody in Cleveland, O., intended to foreclose on the plant.
 pr. B. F. Fitzgerald, Dr, George. F. Ober and Dr. c. W, Osborne, who were members of the board at that time, testified today. John T. King. who had the contract for collecting the gar bage, was also on hand with the books and papers showing the amount of the collections.

BATTLES ALONG IsONZO
 s'MIGHTIEST OF WARP

Berlin. July &-The battles be- tween the Italians and Austrians along the Isonzo river are described by the correspondent in the TyroI of the Loka1 Anzeiger as the 'mightiest and most frightful of the world war;
 The great struggle has lasted a week. the correspondent says, with out any decision having been reached. The, principal Italian onslaught had been directed against the Doberdo plauteau, where the artillery fire ex- ceeds in intesntty that of the battles at Tarnow and Gorlice in Galfcia. The correspondent adds:
 The conflict directed from captive balloons lasted three days without any interruption and after only a few hours pause was resumed The Aus trian army, which is composed of sol diers of nearly all the nationalitfes in the dual monarchy, endure the terri ble fire bravely and when the Italians gain position they are soon thrust out of it.
 Italian aviators are continually seeking to destroy the railways at the rear of the Austrian lines, especially around Nabressirla, but thus far they have done no great damage

AWAIT NEW PLAN OF U. s. TOWARD
 MEXICO FACTIONS

Washington, July 27.-omciaI an- nouncement that the United States government shortly would make a def1- mite move to solve the Mexican prob lem, led to some speculation here to- day as to just what course would be pursued.
 The most probable step, it was said. will be to make final plea to General Carranza to confer with other faction leaders in an effort to retsore peace. Failing in this, conferences of other Mexican chiefs would be urged. A government formed by them might be recognized by the United States and aid given to maintain it.
 Washington, July 27. Carranza troops have evacuated Naco and left a civil administration. Their action re- lieves a Threatening situation in which Major General Funston had or ders to shell the Mexican factions away from the border if their fighting endangered American territory.

 According to Dr. Curtis statement it was BIakeslees poor mother that he was thinking of, Mr. La1Iy said, when he was in favor of granting the Abatement.
 The meeting grew heated when Will Hams said, Now, Doc, cut out this talk of politics This has nothing to do with peanut politics in this town.''
 In the height of the accusations and denials and when the meeting was waxing warmest. the intimation was made at the meeting that probably the taxes and interest had been paid up. A telephone message to Tax Collector John Wilcoxson verified this belief. He declared that the money owed for eight years had been paid in this morning.
 A vote was then taken and it was unanimously agreed to rescind the ae- ton of last Saturday.

FEED CHICKENS SOUR MILK
Liberal Supply Mixed With Corn Mn
Keep Fowls In Healthy and
Growing Condition.

By \. e. SMITH. Minnesota Experiment
StatiOnl
Sour milk Is utilized in one OF the
best possible ways by feeding Il 10
chickens. Those -yho think that they
get greater returns by feeding Il 10
hogs should remember that the flesh
OF chickens brings at least twice as
much on the market as that OF hogs.
MIX and corn are both liked by
chickens, and n proper mixture OF the
two makes cHe OF III best and most
appetizing rations for the season when
the days are warm and the nights
cool. For the best results the corn
should be cracked and soaked several
hours in either sweet or sour skinned
milk or IN buttermilk. The corn may
be put In pals In the morning and
the milk poured on until the top OF
the corn is submerged two or three
inches. When this has been absorbed
more should be added NJ intervals
curing the day and the mixture will
be excellent for feeding by night.
A liberal supply Of this ration will
keep the chickens growing rapidly and
insure their being constantly plump
and in excellent condition for the
market. Try II once and the fowls
will tell you whether they like II. Try
II two weeks or n month and they
will show YOU whether II Is a good
and economical feed.
