Numerous subpoenaes requiring wit
nesses TO appear before the grand Jury
have been sent out in preparation for
the opening of department No. l of the
circuit court in this county, January 3
From some of the witnesses upon whom
subpoenaes have been served it is indi
Gated that the late fair grounds ticket
scandal is due for an airing.
A suit has been filed in the circuit
court Of this county by the state board
of control against the Salem Hospita
association and the Oregon Children ;,
Aid society to condemn ola acres OF
land for the extension of the Oregon
state hospital for the insane. This plot
of ground was found to be partly in use
by the building of the Oregon STATE
hospital and the board of control at
tempted to secure possession Of it from
the Salem hospital association. The hos
pital association is said to have Offered
the ground for $4,000 and at the las
legislature $4,000 was appropriated
for the purchase of this land. Then i
appears that the hospital refused t,
sell for this price and the present mean
is taken to secure the land. The stat,
asks that the ground may be con
demned and that tho state secure pos
session of it for $4,000. Attorney
General Brown is representing the in
terests Of the board OF control in thu
case.

Food For the CANCELS ~

Los Angeles, Cal, Dec. 22.-Horse-
flesh can be sold for food in Los An
geies, so long a it is not hung in the
same refrigerators with beef and other
meats, according to City Attorney
stephens. There is no city law govern
ing the sale of herseflesh, so Los An.
geles may join with New Yorkers in
ordering morse steaks if dealers want
to put them on sale. Stephens said he
personally was not opposed to dining
on horse, as it was, he said, probably
just as good as any kind of meat.

A Matter of Taste.

San Diego, CAL. Dee. 22.-"Eating
horsef1esh is largely a matter of per-
sonal TASTE" said Health officer
Banks here today. "While the flavor

Not ANY For Oakland.

OAKLAND, al, Dec. ga. NJ,
Thompson, city food inspector says he
would not permit the sale of horsemeat
for food. "Until the government de.
crees that horseflesh is edible" he
said, "this office would prosecute mar.
Fkets or Others attempting to sell it. We
should have to be sure the department
Of the interior would sanction such an
idea. Personally Oaklanders are toe
well fed to start eating horses. New
York always goes into things with q
horse on it. !"

TELLS OF MISSIONARY
 INTERNES IN INDIA
Rov. R. X. Hume. father of Former
 Y. NJ. c. A. secretary, Writes Of Camp Conditions.

Rev. Robert A. Hume missionary in India, who is the father of ". H. Hume, the former general secretary of the New Britain Y. M. c. A., mas contributed an article to The Mis- sionary Herald of Boston, in which he sets forth the condition of about seventy German Protestant mission aries who are mingling with the ordi- nary civilians of a camp or interned Germans in India. Following IS an excerpt from the article:
 Much is done for the comfort of the internes, who are allowed religious meetings, concerts, and entertainments of many kinds, libraries. and all kinds of sports. Two daily newspapers In English give the prisoners news of the outside world. The chief hard ships arise from the fact that the various occupations of the men are, of course. interrupted and traL they are separated from their families. In order to minimize this ras1 trial, the American consul in Bombay asked the authorities and asked us missionaries if we could, for limited periods, en- certain the wives of sucn Germans as might be able to afford visits to their husbands. If such privileges were to be made available to all, obviously the visits must be, short, so as to enable many to have some part in the privi- iege. Accordingly, our Anmednagar nlissionaries have agreed to entertain four ladies at time for four days and to receive the nominaf sum of sixty six cents a day from each lady, as a paying guest, to cover absolute ex- penses The commandant very cour- teously allows these wives 70 spend practically the whole day, from morn ing till 9:ao in the evening, with their husbands. whether paroled or non- Iaroled, in a good bungalow in camp for the four days of their visit.''
