Sherlock Holmes
Meets w. j. Burns

In the days when w. ]. Burns
first came to the front by his
sensational detection of crimes, II
was frequently suggested that
Sherlock Holmes ought to meet
Burns and confer with him upon
the abrupt conclusion of all
crime. Now, 1t has happened.
Upon his recent trip to Ameri-
ca, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle was
met at the dock by Burns, and
they saw together the Tombs, de-
tective headquarters and other
places of interest.
And presumably they discussed
at great length the labor union
plots which Mr.. Burns solved.
For in new Sherlock Holmes
novel, called THE Valley of
Fear"-the first story of Holmes
in 10 years-Sir Arthur has more
than one-half of the story in
America, and he here takes up
the plots of an imaginary anar-
chistic union of mine workers.

California May
Buy a Railroad

SACRAENTO, Cal, March II.
State officials of California
have started a movement which
may result in the purchase by
the state of the Western Pacific
railway, now in the hands of a
receiver.
The suggestion of state pur-
chase originated with Rudolph
Spreckels, who was present at a
conference yesterday with Gov,
Hiram johnson, Lieut.. Gov.
Eschelman and Attorney Charles
8. Wheeler, who appeared as
counsel for Western Pacific In
special cases. The road could be
bought for about $50,0OO,O00.
Supporters of the purchase plan
contend that state ownership
would place California beyond
the dependency of privately own
ed systems.

Stomach Troubles
!, Due to Acidity
So Says Eminent Specialist

So-called stomach troubles.
such as indigestion, wind, and
stomach-ache are in probably
nine cases out of ten simply evil
dence that fermentation is TAX
ing place in the food contents of
the stomach, causing the forma-
tion of gas and acids. Wind dis
tends the stomach and causes that
Hull, oppressive feeling some
times known as heartburn, while
the acid irritates and inflames
the delicate lining of the stom-
ach. The trouble lies entirely in
the fermenting food. Such fer
.mentation is unnatural, and acid
FORMATION is not only unnatural,
5but may involve most serious
consequences II not corrected. To
stop or prevent fermentation of
Ithe food contents of the stomach
and to neutralize the acid, and
render 1t bland and harmless, a
teaspoonful of bisurated mag
nesia, probably the best and
most effective corrector of acid
stomach known, should be taken
in a quarter Of a glass of hot or
cold water Immediately after
eating, or whenever wind or acid
ity Is felt. This stops the fermen-
tation and neutralizes the acidity
In few moments. Fermentation
wind and acidnity are dangerous
and unnecessary. Stop or prevent
them by the use of a proper ant
acid, such as bisurated magnesia,
which can be obtained from any
druggist and thus enable the
stomach to do its work properly
without being hindered by poi
spnous gas and dangerous acids.

Washington.-Man of the press
comments on the decision of the
United States District Court, rendered
March 20. at Topeka. Kansas. hold
ing that the federal migratory bird
law is unconstitutional. according to
the United States Department of Ag-
riculture, are erroneous and are apt
to mislead the public concerning the
real situation in this matter
The Kansas decision, like former
decision to the same effect in the
eastern district of Arkansas, is linn
tied in its operation solely to the dis
trict in which 1t was rendered. Nei-
ther decision settles or nullifes the
law, and the exact contrary has been
held by the United States District
Court for South Dakota.
The Arkansas case has been ap-
pealed to and is now pending in the
United States Supreme Court The
Act of Congress protecting migratory
birds stands effective until the SUI
preme Court finally decides the ques-
ton of its constitutionality. In the
meantime it is the duty of the De-
partment of Agriculture to enforce
this, law and the officials in charge
will endeavor to do so as long as it is
in force. Reports of violations will
be carefully investigated and when
sufficient evidence is secured they
will be reported for prosecution. In
this connection it should not be for
gotten that an offender against this
as in the case of other United States
laws, is subject to prosecution any
time within three years from the date
the offense is committed.
