GARAGE MAN IN ON
 GOLD THEFT, CHARGE

CHEYENNE, WyO, June 2s.-The connection of George Heber, a Denver garage man, with the alleged inter state stolen gold conspiracy trials which started on Monday, was the subject of much inquiry in federal district court today. Heber's name was drawn directly into the evidence for the first time when James Sim mons, vice-president of a bank at Vic tor, Colo, told of the endorsement by Heber of checks issued by the mint to William Green," a name which is said to have been an alias of Frank Cochrane of Victor, another defendant in the case. Simmons said Heber drew money on these checks "time and again"
 The banker was on the stand sev- eral hours, spending much of the time identifying a number of mint checks said to have been sent to Cochrane under an alias. Heber is relative of Cochrane
 The banker also testified Heber had cashed checks for William Reed, an- other defendant.
 w. F. Holloran, postmaster at Vic tor, testified Cochrane had rented postofice box for William Green" Several Denver ana Cheyenne post of flee employees were called to testify a registered letter sent from Cheyenne to Denver in care of "C. D. Cole" It was testified that Cole" was a name used by Heber.

FRUIT PACKERS FOR
 SALT VALLEY NEEDED

PHOENIX, Ariz., June 2S. (Spe- cial) IA serious situation confronts the Arizona Council of Defense in the Salt river valley, relative to the perishable fruits which are ripening faster than the market can take care of them. Thousands of tons of apri- cots and plums would have been lost in the Salt river valley had not the Council of Defense taken immediate steps to cheek the loss. Miss Grace I. Tufts is spending the greater part of her time at headquarters of the council in the state house, answering calls of persons who are appealing for help to save their fruit. Organized work in the shape of a clearing house is in charge of Miss Tufts, and volun- teers are called upon to go to the orchards and pick the fruit for can ming or drying. Under this plan, the conservation of apricots and plums has been very successful, but there is still going to be some loss.
 Through the new commission which has charge of state institutions, a squad of men were sent from the asy- lum to pick apricots which were later to the penitentiary, industrial school and the pioneers home. The Boys battalion, which is now engaged in farm work in the Salt river valley, was also pressed into service to pick fruit for their own use.

68 CHILDREN DIE OF
 SUMMER COMPLAINT

ST. LOUIS, June 28.-Sixty-eight children have died from a severe form of summer complaint in southeastern Missouri during the last few weeks according to information telephonei here today.
 More than 200 persons, mostly chil- dren, now are ill and about a fourth of these are in a serious condition.
 The epidemic is partly credited to the late, cold spring, which suddenly changed to hot summer weather. Flies are believed to have been carriers of the disease.
 Four deaths from cholera lnfantum are reported from Senath, Dunklin county.

ANARCHISTS WORRY PRESIDING JUDGE BY
 THEIR QUESTIONS

NEW YORK, June 2S.-Alexander Berllman, anarchist, was sharply re- buked by Judge Julius NJ. Mayer in the United States district court here today when Berkman resumed the ex- animation or talesmen for the jury that will hear the testimony in his trial and that of Emma Goldman on charges of conspiring to hamper the operations of the selective draft.
 q am not going to let you take in terminable time to examine jurors" 1" said Judge Mayer, after Berlman had propounded questions to which the prosecution objected, as it had yes terday. q pointed to you at your re- quest what improper questions are, and I do not propose to have you ask them. I will not stand any more non sense or any more delays. Let us have no more acting"
 Would you believe it to be a law ful change if we had in this country a reVolution?" Berkman asked one man.
 "We are not going into the discus sion of revolutions here said the court in sustaining the objection of the prosecution.
 Miss Goldman was then permitted to examine the talesmen. Her ques- tions included: Would you be preju- diced against the defendants to knew that Emma Goldman had devoted large part of her life to the enamel patton of women?"
 'Do you believe in woman's equality with man?"
 ''Would you be prejudiced against Emma Goldman If it came out in the trial that she advocated birth control for the poor?"
 Judge Mayer allowed the questions to stand as fair. |?
 The courtroom was closely guarded by secret service agents and only per sons with passes were permitted to en- ter. A large crowd gathered on the outside and one woman, who was said to be a follower of Miss Goldman, broke her umbrella over the head of a deputy United States marshal when she was refused admission.

CROP CENSUS MAP IF ARIZONA BEING
 DRAWN BY EXPERT

PHOENIX, Ariz., June 2S. (Spe- ciaD "A complete crop census map of the state of Arizona is being made b ythe Arizona Council of Defense, under plan devised by Chairman Dwight B. Heard, which will show the entire crop acreage of the state' now in cultivation, and also an outline-map, showing what crops are contemplated for the year of 1918.
 This is the first census map ever produced and will contain many essen tials never before shown in graphic form. The work is being carried out under the supervision of J. E. Sellers, statistician for the Council of Defense of Arizona, who is cooperating with the various organizations throughout the state where district managers are assigned given territory, generally consisting of approximately twenty sections of land. A small plat map is made in the office and designed to cover a specific territory. This is turned over to the district managers, who, with a committee of three, place the crop acreage in each section and name the crop growing. The plat is then returned to Mr. Sellers, where it is plotted on a large county map-16I it. by ft.-in its respective district, with colored symbols denoting the kind of crop being gown. When the total crops for She district are com ple;ad, the total acreage is again plac ed in Q district chart, showing the to- tai acreage in figures for both dis triots and crops. This graphic meth cd allows one to secure at a glance the exact amount of grain within a cer- tain radius and how best it can be handled, and also gives one an idea at a glance, just how much of each crop is in the district.
 This work will be Of unestimable value, not only for the Council of De- fense, but will answer, also, for all other committees, and will be a com pletc record, suitable for statewide i use, in all matters pertaining to of fcieEt handling oe crops and food stuffs. It is hoped to have this map i ready for use on Or about the first of JI!y.

COAL MEN WILL GUT
 PRICES Sl8O,OOO,OOO

WASHINGTON, Ji.ne z8.-Sweep- ing reductions in the price of bitu- minous coal at all mines east of the Mississippi river, ranging from S1 to $5 ton to the public, with a further cut. of 50 cents for the government, were agreed upon today at confer ences between the operators and gov ernment officials. The new prices be- come effective July 1.
 Four hundred operators who gather cred here today at a call from Secre- taTy Lane and pledged themselves to furnish their product at a reasonable price were represented in the final conferences by committees from each field. Earlier in the day they had agreed to place the price fixing in the hands of the government, through the defense councils coal production com mittee, Secretary Lane and Commis- :ioner Fort of the federal trade com thus avoiding the possibility of violating the antitrust laws.
 Director Smith of the geological sur yey estimated that the reduced prices would mean that the operators would get ?1SO,OOO,OOO less annually for their output and that the saving to the gov ernment and the coal consuming pub lie would be even greater.
 Only the districts west of Illinois Iowa, Wyoming, Colorado, Oklahoma and the southwest-which were not re- remain yet to be accounted for, and there is no doubt in the minds of officials that these districts will agree to the price reduction.

SAGE TEA BEAUTIHES
 AND DARKENS HAIR
Don't Stay Gray! It Darkens So Naturally that No
 body can Tell.

You can turn gray, faded hair beau tifully dark and ldstrous almost over night if you'll get a 5O-cent bottle of ''Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound at any drug store. Millions of bottles of this old famous Sage Tea Recipe, i'm proved by the addition of other ingredi- ents, are sold annually, says a we'll known druggist here, because it darkens the hair so naturally and evenly that no one can tell it has been applied.
 Those whose hair is turning gray or becoming faded have surprise awaiting them, because after one or two appliea- tions the gray hair vanishes and your locks become luxuriantly dark and beau tiful.
 This is the age of youth. Gray-haired, unattractive folks aren't wanted around, so get busy with Wveth's Sage and Sul- phur Compound tonight and you'n be de- lighted with your dark, handsome hair and your youthful appearance within a few days.
 This preparation is a toilet requisite and is not intended for the cure, mitiga tion or prevention of disease

The Brazilian government by act of congress late in May authorized the revocation of BraziPs neutrality in the war between Germany and the United States. In notifying the Brazilian legations of the sanction of the revo- cation, Milo Pecanha, foreign minis ter, in note said Brazil up to that time had refrained from taking sides in the European conflict, but that the republic could not remain indifferent from the moment the United States found itself involved in struggle for the rights of the people and when Ger many meted out indiscriminately to Brazil the most brutal treatment.
