Prosecution of
Oyster Dealers
BY Government
by AsSocIATEp pREss.

Washington, Dec. 30.-Prosecution
of oyster dealers found guilty of the
practice of adding fresh water to
shucked oysters SO as to greatly in
crease their size in violation of the
Food and Drugs act will be recon-
mended by the department of agricul-
tufe.
This was announced today by the
department which said considerable
evidence is being celebrated by its in
spectors regarding the traffic in water
soaked oysters. AS soon as compile
ted the evidence will be turned over
TO the department of justice with a
view of prosecution, it was added.
The addition of water to oysters
lowers their food value in the de-
partment's opinion, which holds that
such oysters are adulterated within
the meaning of the Food and Drugs
acts.

W 0. ". BOOSTERS
TO MEET TONIGHT
SOME IMPORTANT MATTERS TO
BE TAKEN UP AT THIS MEET
ING, IF GOOD ATTENDANCE
FAyORS THE SESSION.

Tonight is the regular meeting for
the W. o. w. Booster Club, and a
good attendance should crowd into
the Woodmen hall, on West Romano
street, where the regular meetings
are held, for the purpose of hearing
of some big plans which the Boosters
have in mind.
There are several matters of con-
siderable and widespread interest
which the Boosters will have hand
in, to occur soon, and it is the hope
of those behind the movements to be
launched to see large attendance
tonight, so that plans for taking hold
of these matters may be shaped
ready for the beginning.
The only requisite to be an active
member of the organization is to hold
a membership in the Woodmen lodge
and all who attend the Friday night
sessions are assured of a very pleas
ant time, the more members, however
the better times to be had.

POLICY MENACES THE
SPLENDIDLY UNITED COUNTRY

London, Dec 30.-Although other
liberal organs seem to be at least
resigned to the idea of compulsory
military service, the Manchester
Guardian, which is the most impor-
tant provincial newspaper, declares:
Nothing can be more unsatisfac-
tory, or we will say, irrational-than
the way in which the government ap-
pears to be drifting into reversal
of one of the greatest of ournational
traditions and dividing the nation,
hitherto so splendidly united"
The Guardian accuses the conscrip-
zionist party of Selling the oppor-
tunity presented by the war to give
effect to preconceived policy. This
it says, is being done without rela-
ton to the actual needs of war, but
merely to bring about the triumph of
an idea. It continues:
They have long held something
not unlike the Prussian view of the
state and desire to militarize."

OF LARGE NUMBER OF ARMY
AND NAVY OFFICIALS.

In a letter received in Pensacola
yesterday, details of the funeral SER

Fitzhugh Robards were given, which
will be of interest here, where he was
widely known, not only in the service,
but by many others who know him
during his residence in this city,
where he married Miss Ethel Maura.
Captain Robards met his death
about one o'clock on the morning of
December 16, while in Hayti, where
he had been sent with an expedition

He fell from his horse, while on duty
on one of the rough mountain trails,
suffered conclusion of the brain, and
died about six o'clock the same even

Letter from two officers in Hayti to
relatives of Captain Robards stated
that he had secured leave to return
to the states to spend Christmas with
his wife and little son and would have
left Hayti in few days on the Sac
ramento-indeed he did leave on this
sOcoCi, NA1PPCa III. uio SOuuIIy . AdS,
for which he had laid down his life.
The remains reached Norfolk last
Wednesday and the funeral took
place in Washington on Thursday,
with distinguished military honors.
He was laid to rest in Arlington GEM

mander Bassett, U. S. NJ; General
Barnett, U. S. M. c.; Major Hill, U.
S. M. c.; Captain Hardee, U. S. NJ
c.; Paymaster Conger, u. S. N An
escort from headquarters and the
navy attended the funeral, which was
one of the most impressive and one
of the largest military funerals held
in Washington this year.
The floral designs were costly and
beautiful.
Shortly after their marriage, Cap
tain Robards was stationed at Cuba
where his wife joined him, and also
later on at Honolulu they made thei1
home, where their little son was born
On returning to the states, after
Captain Robards was relieved from
sea duty, he was stationed at the
Mare Island Navy Yard and the
Philadelphia Yard. 1t was from the
latter station that he was dispatched
to Hayti, where he met his sad ant
tragic death, in the discharge of hi:
duty as an officer.

CHARGED He THREW
NAILS ON PAVEMENT

J. M. Oliver, negro who gave his
occupation as that of a minister of
the gospel, and who resides on 18th
street, was arrested last evening by
Officer Pericles, and charged with a
violation of section 40 of the city
code. He will appear for trial this
morning.
Section 100 prohibits the throwing
of glass, nails, ETC., on the streets,
and Oliver was alleged to have dis
tributed quite lot of steel wire nails
on Palafox street at the intersection
of Zarragossa street. The nails were
pointed out to the policeman named
and he gathered them up. There were
about half pound, but were in per-
feet condition, and the defendant has
offered no excuse for throwing them,
as the officer and another witness
charged in the information.
Section 100 is incorporated in the
code with view especially of pro-
lection for bicycle and automobile
tires, and there has been some special
effort to enforce it, especially in the
downtown districts where traffic is
the heaviest.

and appreciative audience gave vent
to their appreciation by prolonged
applause.

intermediate group, while some of

the parallel bar work proving that
this advanced work is capable Of in
teresting the older boy and that a
little practice will make perfect.
Those taking part in this were Dewey
Jacoby, John Campbell, Edward
Thames, Herbert Richards and JUL
ian Olsen.
The two farce pieces were a "tur-
pentine chorus" while old-time songs
were sung and played, the musical in
strument being the mouth organ. The
solo was sung by Lionel Gugenheim.
| With an imitation camp fire, the
scene and songs seemed to be appreci-
ated by the audience.
