WHOLESALE HOUSES
Try to Buy Back From Local Drug
Dealers

Mt. Vernon druggists have received
communications from wholesale drug
concerns making propositions to buy
back Quinine, agreeing to take it in
any quantities it is possible for re-
tail dealers TO accommodate them
with, from an ounce to pounds. Local
dealers view these inquiries with
alarm and note that there have al
ready been many unprecedented in
creases in the cost of a number OF
drugs, many of which are used in the
treatment OF minor ailments. The
blame for the rise in prices Is placed
on the European war and the condi-
tion is said to be due largely to the
cutting off of imports from Germany
and Austria and the great demand
caused in Europe by the war, says an
exchange. Quinine has gone up to 81
an ounce. This is the highest price
asked since the Civil war, when It
was 81. Early this year manufactur-
ers were accepting business in qui-
nine on the basis of 26 cents an
ounce. Asperin, synthetic drug,
used for curing colds, has jumped
from 5S cents to SO cents an ounce.
This has done much to boost prices.
Glycerine has gone up 10 cents a
pound Denatured alcohol has jump.
ed to "A cents gallon in barrel lots.
Opium is being sold up to $3.50. The
increase is due to the difficulty in
getting opium from the primary
sources, owing to the isolation OF
Constantinople. The export demand
for codeine and morphine and other
opium derivatives, continues heavy
and sends prices soaring.

Pennsylvania MARKS
COMING OF FIRST WHITE MAN

Towanda, Pa, Oct. 1.-THE three
hundredth anniversary of the coming
of the first white man to Pennsyl-
vania will be celebrated tomorrow by
the Bradford County Historical soci-
ETY.. The visitor who came in 1915
was Stephen Brule, and his mission
was one of war. He came to induce
the local Indians living along the
SusQuehanna river to join the Hurons
of Canada in making war on the Five
Nations which then occupied the reg
ion of Central New York.
Champlain, the French explorer,
had espoused the cause OF the
Hurons, and organized his forces and
those OF the Indians. In 1915, when
the war was at its height, Brule came
to what is now known as Bradford
county to recruit Indians. Five hun
dred warriors joined him, but they
arrived at the scene of battle two
days too late. Brule returned to
Pennsylvania with his warriors and
spent the winter in q palisade, ex-
ploring much of this section Of the
country.
The land where the palisade stood
is now determined, and tomorrow the
historians will celebrate the event
with fitting pomp and glory the com
ing to the present confines of Penn
sylvania of the first white man. Suit.
able exercises will make the occa-
sion an important one in local his
tory.

,SYRACUSE'S BELOVED BOSS
KEPT TABS ON ROOSEVELT
Francis Hendricks at Eighty Had His Own Chal
Near to Colonel and Closely Followed testimony
of His Oldtme Friend and Foe

Hendricks Superintendent Of lnsur-
ance.
Differing widely in their conceptions
of politics, these two keen politicians
have each spark of the same fire
within them. The Colonel calls his
the root OF righteousness" Mr. Hen
bricks came nearest to giving his a
name when he announced at the 1911
convention: 81 carry my sovereignty
under my own hat"
From the days of Abraham lincoln
Francis Hendricks has been an olgani-
cation Republican. Colonel Roosevelt
was born with the germ of revol. IN
his soul. They served together in the
Assembly. Even then, the story luns,
Roosevelt had his own notions ebout
invisible government, and sought TO
enlist Assemblyman Hendricks in his
cause, importuning him to become a
, rebel candidate for the Speakershlp.
Once and for all Mr.. Hendricks is said
70 have stated his viewpoint TO Roose-
welt, refusing TO become an antl-or-
ganization candidate for anything.
A little later both served on the
Cities Committee and Assemblyman
Roosevelt was surprised 70 find that
Mr.. Hendricks supported many OF his
schemes. A little more OF the Hen
bricks creed was sown on the stony
Roosevelt soil.
Always for the Organization.
The matters in which he had backed
Roosevelt. Mr.. Hendricks is said to
have explained, were not matters IN
volving loyalty TO the organization.
The interests of Syracuse have al
WAYS been close 20 the heart OF Mt
Hendricks. Before he retired from ac-
tive business, few years ago, he was
a controlling factor in savings bank
a state bank and a trust company
many of whose depositors were persons
whose small balances were their for-
tunes. That they were "Hendricks
banks" was all the guarantee they
asked.
When public buildings were to be
erected in Syracuse IL was Mr.: Hen
bricks who chose the building inspec-
tors. The court in which the Barnes
Roosevelt suit is being tried, was built
under the watchful eye OF Boss hen
bricks. and il went up without seaman
and without delay. =.
More than once Colonel Roosevelt
has been a guest at the home OF Mr..
Hendricks. More than once they have
been bitterly opposed in conventions.
In me issue now being tried before
the court and the public Mr.. Hen
dricks's sympathies are doubtless with
the Barnes forces, but mis- interest IN
Colonel Roosevelt has not wsned.

the matter of diet prescribed by his
wife. This is what he has to say about
the veal;
con the Saturday preceding april
g. the plaintiff bought a large quantity
Of veal and kept il in the house uniced
until Sunday, when it was cooked and
partly eaten for dinner. On Monday
night the veal was warmed over for
supper. Tuesday noon the same veal
was presented in fricassee form.
Tuesday night AZ supper the fricas-
seed veal again appeared warmed over,

But that was not the last of the veal

Notwithstanding the defendants
bad condition on Wednesday," Krack
AYERS, "the veal was again presented 10
the defendant in the form of meat
balls. The defendant was sick at heart
as well as at his stomach, when the
veal was again placed before him for

warmed-over meat balls. and with his
patience and mild submission entirely
exhausted this defendant did seize the
platter of veal, meat balls and all, and
throw them into the coal scuttlc.'
Thereupon, said krack, his wife ran

and two policemen came, but when they
heard the story about the veal they
left without making an arrest.
Krack denied striking his wife and
explained the tearing Of ner dress
which she alleged in her complaint by
saying that this happened when he
tried TO restrain his wife from calling
in the police. Mrs. Krack asked for S25

fused to grant her any alimony on the
ground that she gave orders at the
