ARSENIC NO POISON
FOR ORDINARY DOG

Atlanta, Ca, May 9.-Taking his
cue from the experiment conducted
by DR.. w. Jay Bell, an Atlanta physi-
clan, under the observation of the Geor
gia state veterinarian and the Geor-
gia state prison commission members,
another Georgia physician has admin
istered large doses of arsenic to dog
and proven at least to his own person
al and professional satisfaction that
arsenic is not a poison SO far as the
canine tribe is concerned.
The latest to try the experiment is
DR.. G. A. Harris, of the Rock, Ga. who
gave a dog daily doses in increasing
quantity without any harmful effect
whatever to the dog.
The first day he gave the dog one
fourth of a grain of arsenic; the sec
ond day one-half of grain; the third
day, one grain; the fourth day, two
grains; the fifty day, four grains; the
sixth day, eight grains.
81 am convinced" declared DR.. Har
ris after finishing the experiment" that
the only way to kill a dog. with arsenic
is to give him so much that you choke
him to death" ls

$4,000. Those figures were s9.5O0.-
900, or Is per cent above the new high
quarterly record established on De-

40 per cent above the previous high
water mark which was made in the
March quarter of 1907 This week a
number of large railroad systems pub
lished their earnings for the month of
March. Those statements, even more
than the figures published by the steel
corporation. show plainly that the
whole country is experiencing vigor-
Gus trade revival, For more than a
generation the ups and downs of the
steel business have been accepted as
indicating the trend of general trade;
in recent years however, closer atten-
ton has been paid by students of in
dustrial conditions to the detailed
statements of monthly earnings pub
lished by the railroads. All but very

FLEES CITY TO ESCAPE
TAR AND FEATHER PARTY
City Employe Charged with Making
Radical Remarks About the
Mexican Situation
(Nampa l. eader-Herald)


While party was being organized
to forcibly eject him from the city, af-
ter suitable punishment had been met
ted out, Will Hallsworth, until yester-
day an employee of the city street
cleaning department, said goodbye
to his wife, and quietly slipped from
the city.
Hallsworth aroused the wrath OF
numerous citizens by the alleged state
mcnt that he hoped all of the militia
men who went to Mexico would be
shot. The remark was said to have
been heard by number of people and
when these spread the report groups
of angry citizens gathered on the
streets and there was talk of "tar
and feather party and even more Sc
we're punishment.
Mayor T. f. Munhall suspended
Hallsworth as soon as the report
reached him.
By the incident yesterday the cit
liens Of Nampa demonstrated that
those who hold radical views on the
Mexican situation had best keep such
remarks to themselves. Nampa is GO
ing Ito do her mite to help untangle
the mess at the Mexican border and
she will brook no interference from
long haired anarchists or agitators.
A return to the days of vigilante
committees seems an easy step should
the affair of yesterday be repeated
