LAW IN
Eco SALES HERE
Inspector Finds Fraud Has
Been PraCtiCed on
Consumers.

That several dealers in eggs had
been violating the state law which
provides that storage eggs must be
advertised and sold as such was the
finding of Frank Tucker. state food
inspector, who has completed his
inspection Of local stores and whole
sale houses
1t was reported TO the health de-
partment that between 5000 and
5000 storage eggs had been sold
during the past week as fresh eggs.
and DR. Charles Bosenbury, secre-
tary of the health board. immedi-
ately called upon the state depart
ment for help, since Charles Van
Lake. city food Inspector, has been
ILL., Mr.. Tucker was sent out on the
case at once.
Most of the eggs now on the
market are storage eggs, says Mr..
Tucker. Wholesalers are finding
increased difficulty in obtaining
fresh eggs, and in some localities,
storage eggs are being shipped into
the country districts.
Storage eggs should sell for from
A. TO "A cents per dozen. according
TO Saturdays quotations. while fresh
eggs are priced at As TO 81 cents
per dozen. From the health stand
point. says DR.. BOsenbury, there is
no objection TO the use Of storage
eggs, but since strictly fresh eggs
are more desirable, and bring a
better price. the sale of storage eggs
for fresh ones is a fraud
Warnings have been issued and
consumers are advised TO look for
the signs which the law demands
must be placed on all containers Of
storage eggs. And violation of the
law should be reported to the health
department for investigation

vessel in the Newfoundland fishing
feet, but more recently carrying coal
for the British government.
The troubles Of the Macmillan party
began shortly after their departure in
July, 1913, when their ship was wreck
ed off Barge Point, Labrador. The
party and supplies were transferred to
another vessel and reached Etah that
fall In the summer OF 1915, after re-
ports had been received of the activi-
ties OF the party, DIR. Edmund Otis
Hovey, chairman OF the committee In
charge Of the expedition and curator
Of the department Of geology In the
American Museum OF Natural History,
started out with relief party In the
ship George b. Cluett. DR.. Hovey
reached Etah and brought back all the
party except Mr.. Macmillan and two
companions, who had gone on hunt
ing trip, despairing Of any rescue party
that year. The Cluett was caught In
the ice herself that winter, although
several Of the members Of the party
got out by sledge. Meanwhile last
spring the steamer Denmark, with
Danish complement, was chartered In
Greenland when word OF DR.. Hovey's
plight was received, but she was last
heard Of on Aug. 20 of last year, fight
ing Ace In Melville bay.
The Cluett returned to Newfound-
land last September but DR.. Hovey
and Elmer Ekblaw OF her party, to-
gether with George b. Conner, the Ice
pilot, are presumably still in the neigh
borhood OF Etah. Mr.. MacMillan's re-
naming companions are DR.. Harrison

MARINES IN ACTION IN sANTo DOMINGO.
United States marines have been great
factors In initiating toward perpetual
peace among the defenseless people OF
Haiti and Santo Domingo, who were
worn out by years OF internal strife.
These advance agents of American civ.
ilization wanted peace so badly that
they were willing to fight for it.
THE marines have literally taught
the Haitians how to live decently,"
said the Right Rev. Charles Blayney
Colmore, bishop OF Porto Rico and
Haiti, during a recent visit TO the
United States. Before their coming
sanitation save in the crudest and
most unsatisfactory forms was un.
known, fevers and epidemics were as
plentiful as revolutions, press gang
was In vogue and the country was the
victim OF continuous uprisings engi.
neered by political scoundrels. each OF
whom ravaged the customs money
drawer as each in turn came into short
lived power.
1.-THE entry OF the United States ma.
rines ended this sorry story. With the
wonderful facility and adaptability for
which the marines are noted these adj
