LIMBERK AND MECHANIC
KILLED IN BIG AUTO RACE

New York.-Carl Limberg, an auto
mobile racer, and r. Pallotti, his
mechanician, leading the field in the
fifteenth lap of the 15O-mile race for
the Metropolitan trophy, were killed
when their machine crashed into a
guard rail on the ~Sheepshead Bay
track.
Limberg, who had been taking the
turns ear the very top of the high
saucer track, apparently lost control
of his car, while rounding the bend at
a speed of more than 100 miles an
hour. Both men were catapulted 100
feet over the rail and crashed to the
ground about 80 feet below. The driv-
er was impaled on an upright piece
of timber and waws killed instantly
Palotti died on the way to the Coney
Island hospital.
The machine, n of three French
cars imported for the race by Harry
8. Hardness, crumpled under the i'm
pact and burst into flames. The blaz-
ing car chung to the rail as other driv-
ers flashed past without ~slackening
speed, ignorant of the fate of their
fellow ace A flash of flame and a
cloud of black smoke told the specta-
tors that an accident had happened,
but as it occurred at the far turn Of
the two-mile saucer few realized hat
it marked a tragedy.

"GINGLES JINGLES"
LEAVING HOME.

We never cared to wander,
but we did one time vamoose.
1t was years ago, when we were
eallow squad. We waved a fond
farewell to pals, from home ties
we broke loose; we were headed
for the city and a job. Our garb
was not the latest, we were sad
ly out of date, in our cotton
hand-me-downs we were q
sight; but thought beneath our
tacky lid we had within our pate
all the goods that we would
need to put us right. We took
the G. NJ Flyer and obeyed the
city call, and we soon were glim-
ming incandescent lights; but
found for pumpkin ways and
toys the city would not fall, and
in short were jolted from our
dizzy heights. Our kick of shin
ing shekels made its getaway
with ease; disappointed, hun
CRY, broke, we longed for home.
A train dispatcher saved our life,
when we, upon our knees, took
the pass and said we never
roam. <TNN. C.<SSN

ROOSEVELT, HUGHES, OR who's

With the assembling of the Repub-
lican national convention almost in
sight, there is no precedent for tho
conditions which at present exist in
that party.
One guess is as good as another and
nothing intenSifes interest more THAI
uncertainty. Will the nominee for
President be Roosevelt, Or Hughea
0r a dark horse? Nobody knows and
So we can only speculate for the brief
time intervening.
As to Hughes, we have no later
word from the jurist save that he ia,
in NO sense, a candidate. That has
come to be understood as meaning
that he will not decline if nominated.
HE could easily eliminate himself, and
he does not need to be told how. But
he has not seen fit to do that, and so
hiR silence gives consent. There are
poorer ways Of conducting a cam
raiGn and the Supreme Court Justice
evidently knows it.
On the other hand, from the most
formidable rival of Hughes we have
been surfeited with enlightenment.
every day is Candidate Teddy's busy
day. He will have an army of supper
tiers at Chicago and they will have pa.
latial quarters, and the fight between
silence and vociforation. between re-
serve and reVerberation will soon be
DC in the windy city"
1t is now claimed that the "old
guard" is demoralized, but it would be
nearer the truth to- say that most Of
the survivors haYe been mustered out
of service. Not many of them are left
and they are widely scattered. Their
:1c, and few of them will be delegates
10 the Chicago convention with Dur
poses in common. There are so many
"~favorite sons" that cohesion or con-
cert Of action is out of the question,
a 5 far either Of them is concerned at
the beginning, and there will be a sea-
son of scrambles at the outset. Those
who have preferences to consult will
see things as they please to lok at
them. Those who have not will take
staying power into account.
A tremendous expenditure of pre-
1jminary energy will characterize the
Roosevelt boosters plan OF action
Highwater-mark for him will be nel1
the beginning. Silence has no wear
and tear to withstand: it is otherwise
with vociforation. Therefore. it would
seem that the greater the number Of
ballots. the greater the chances for the
opposition to Roosevelt. And a sora.
Tory is that. with many ballots. tht
Use of another tide will correspond.
In that event neither Roosevelt mol
Hughes would be the probable nomi
nee. But who?

Ell Paso, Tex.-Army posts and sta

of two fires at Fort Bliss, where flames
of unknown origin destroyed a store

express the opinion that an investi-

GIRLS WORK DURING HOLIDAYS

Columbia, Mo-, Jan. 5.-Several
girls in the University of Missouri
at Columbia who are paying their own
way in school, made use of the recent
two weeks vacation to replenish emp
ty pocket-books, says the secretary of
the Y. W. C. A. employment bureau.
Many requests were received for plac-
es to work during all or part of the
holidays.
Some of the requests were for work
In homes. As most of the boarding
houses were closed, after so many of
the students left for the Christmas
holidays, there was, however, little
household work to be done. Some
found work in dry goods stores dur
ing the holiday rush and others found
work as substitutes for the girls hold
ing half-time stenographic positions,
A few women of this years grad
uating class have made all their ex-
penses while at the University.

PUBLIC HEALTH REPORT

I
The annual report of the Secretary
of the Treasury as it relates to the
Public Health Service contains num-
erous recommendation bearing on
the functions of that organization and
evidences the great interest of this
department in the extension and ex-
pansion of the governmental agencies
for the protection of the public health.
In the development of general pub
lie health work, according to the Sec
rotary, there is great need of addi-
tional medical officers. The number
of requests for advice and assistance
in health problems received from
states and municipalities during the
past year has far exceeded that in
any similar period in the history of
the Service, but the limited number
of officers available for the work has
prevented in many instances compli-
ance with these requests.
The field Investigations, the Secre-
tary states, have served as a stimu-
lus to state and local health agencies,
and every effort should therefore be
made to encourage the turn in prac-
teal account the interest in health
matters awakened in the general pub
lie. For this reason an increase in
the appropriation for field work is re-
quested.
An additional building for the Hy-
gienic laboratory is urgently needed.
The work of this institution has been
greatly extended, particularly as it
relates to the examination of viruses,
serums and analogous products, a
vast market for which has been re-
Gently created abroad. The safe
guarding of these therapeutics agents
requires great accuracy and preci-
sion and overcrowding is a serious
In order that the public
health may be better protected, an
annual appropriation of $4,000 is
to be expended in car
rying out the provisions of the law
relating to the examination of these
products.
The United States is the only gov
of Importance which does
not provide for the care and isolation
If lepers, most of whom are native
BORN Americans, may be properly seq
'egated and treated, thereby eliminat-
ng a menace to the health of others,
S urged.
The further recommendation of the
'ecratary relate to the need Of addi-
ional clerical assistance in order to
meet the demands which are increas-
ngly made on the Public Health Blu
eau.

Dredging Gold in Arctic.

A novel effect of gold-dredging in
the frozen regions of the Arctic is
pointed out as a possible problem for
future biologists. The stream be-
comes blocked up by the failing heap,
and more or less stagnant pools are
formed along the sides of the gully
Where the gully broadens two or three
entertainments may be produced, with
muddy pools between them. The mud
is deposited in the sluggish waters,
buries the rocks of the ridges, and
gives morainelike formations that
may be difficult to explain when the
dredging has been forgotten.

CURE BEEF AT HOME

One Of the important means O.
solving the high cost of living on tn,
farm, according to P. F. TrowbridgC
of the University of Missouri Colleg,
Of Agriculture, is being neglected il
each farmer does not produce anC
cure most of the meat for his owr
household.
Any of the brine or dry mixtures
which give good results in curing
pork can be used satisfactorily for
beef, but as beef is leaner than pork,
it should not be allowed to remain in
the brines or mixture quite so long,
or it will become hard and salty.
Dried beef should have the same
cure as corned beef, care being taken
not to let it get too salty. 1t should
then be washed to remove the excess
Of the cure, and smoked if you like
the smoke flavor. A very good coun-
try practice ic to dry-cure the beer
with salt and brown sugar, using
about a fifth as much sugar as salt,
rubbing the meat very thoroughly
with the cure every two or three days
for about two weeks. 1t should then
be washed, wiped and hung up to dry
in warm place if you do not wish to
smoke it, or transferred to the smoke
house and given light smoke.
Corned beef is at its very best
when it has been in the cure about
ten days. If kept in the cure more
than a month, it needs considerable
freshening before cooking. If you
wish to preserve the red color of the
beef, you should use a small amount
of saltpeter, not more than two ounc-
es to each hundred pounds of the
meat. This improves the color of the
meat but is detrimental in that it
tends to harden the lean fibers.
This is one of the numerous prac-
teal bits of information being picked
up by those attending Farmers Week
this year. More extended courses in
killing, cutting and curing of meat
will be given during the seven weeks
course which will open for new stu
dents January 10.
The facilities of the College of Ag-
Iiculture for studying and teaching
his subject have recently been great
y improved by the installation of a
plant. At the close of
Farmers Week each year, the value
IF the instruction is tested at a big
where the meat, prepared by
Prof. Trowbridge and the students, is
served. The animals themselves are
'aised by the animal husbandry de-
oartment Of the College. The steer
slaughtered this year was a State
Fair champion Shorthorn with which
he college wished to compete for hon
,rs at the International Live Stock
Show, if the foot and mouth disease
lad not made it impossible to hold
hat show.

that this and the months Of September

will delay the opening OF them this year.
1t is not to be considered that the active
