PUPS RUTHLESSLY
SLAIN At STATION
COUPLE OF DOGS WERE GIVEN
UP BECAUSE THEY HAD AT
Tackled NEGRO YOUTH WHEN
LATTER PASSED THEM.

Policeman Harper shot two dogs
at the police station yesterday, by
consent and order of the court. The
dogs were owned by two negro women
who gave their names as Lula Kim
non and Lucille Lindsay, and their res
licences in the outskirts of the city.
The dogs were led to the station by
them and ordered shot because each
of the animals had attacked negro
schoolboy when the latter passed
them.
Both of the women were arrested
for allowing vicious dogs to run at
large, and it was up to them to either
consent to the murder of their pets,
or else each of them to suffer the
judgment of the recorder, in the
matter of fine or Imprisonment.
After celebrating over the matter
since the hour of their arrsst, they
both came to the conclusion that a
''biting dog was no count no-how if
the police knowed where he stayed
at" and the offending CANNES were
presented for slaughter to the police
station early yesterday morning.
They claimed that it was the first
tincethe dogs had ever attacked any
one, but it was admittedly one time
too much, and the true-shooting cop
was called upon to do his worst. They
were both killed, and their bodies sent
to the city's crematory for destruc-
ton.

Water Projects Must Pay Up.

washington.-A comprehensive re
view of the work of the reclamation
service in the Interior Department was
given to the House committee on irri-
CATION of arid lands Thursday by Sec
retary Garfield.
Mr.. Garfield said that in the con
struction of the big irrigation plants
every attempt has been made to so
construct the plants that the cost OF
repair from year to year will be as
small as possible. The secretary dwelt
upon the importance of the cooperation
of the states and the federal govern
ment in the development of the arid
lands. He gave the committee some
suggestions as to the future control of
irrigated lands.
There should be no relaxation of
the requirement that the money eX-
pended on those lands must be re-
turned to the government, and there
should be no permission granted for
the postponement of the first pay
ment," he said. THE time has ar
rived for the first payments to be made
on some of the projects. and many re-
quests for an extension of time have
been made.
"If payments are to be postponed. or
payments entirely abandoned, there
will not be a reclamation fund"
The secretary approved in unquali-
fed terms the Water Users associa-
ton. saying that they are absolutely
necessary in the successful manage
ment of an irrigation plant He ia
vored the small sized farm unit in ir-
rigated sections.

NO MEDICINE
But a Change Of Food Gave Relief.

Many persons are learning that
drugs are not the thing to rebuild
worn out nerves, but proper food is
required.
There is a certain element in the
cereals, wheat, barley, etc, which Is
grown there by nature for food to brain
and nerve tissue. This is the phos-
phate of potash, of which Grape-Nuts
food contains large proportion.
In making this food all the food ele-
ments in the two cereals, wheat and
barley, are retained. That is why so
many heretofore nervous and run down
people find in Grape-Nuts a true nerve
and brain food.

done much for me as nerve renew
