HORSE MEAT DIET POPULAR
Demand In Cincinnati Increases Week.
ly-lndorsed by the City
Health Officer.

Cincinnati.-Health Officer J. a..
Lands, discussing horsefiesh as food,
says:
"Cincinnati's initial experiment In
the use Of horse meat has been a pro-
nounced success. The only trouble
has been failure to meet the demand
Two horses were slaughtered the first
week, four the second, and eighteen
the third. In all about $4,000 pounds
have been consumed.
Like many other cities In the
United States, Cincinnati has many
persons who learned to eat horse meat
before becoming residents of this cOun-
try. They do not share the prejudice
of Americans against this valuable
food.
I'm It's ability to supply heat and en-
ergy and to repair waste horse meat
is on a par with meat of other ami
mails used for food purposes"

llLITERATE INDIANS
ARE TAUGHT IN CAMP

San Antonio, Tex.-MOre than
four hundred enlisted men in

are mostly Indians from the re-

Of Oklahoma, and Mexicans
from country precincts of Tex

be close to comrades who may

The Swedish name almanac differs
from English almanacs In giving, be-
sides the usual information Chris
tian name for each sex for every day

names set forth have to receive the
approval of the king. The object aimed
at Is to secure greater choice of
names for parents and to avoid the
endless repetition Of dozen or so
names. A similar name almanac Is Is
sued under royal authority In one OF

SCENT TEUTON PLOT
IN KIDNAPPING CASE

Kansas City. June i2.--Federal
agents, investigating the Keet kid
mapping case are trailing gang OF
German agents following importan'
evidence obtained from man who
has been arrested. II has been ad-
mitted by these men that one arrest
has been made. but aside from the
fact that he has been an officer In the
German army, nothing is given out
about him or his connection with the
case.
The officers are now after Dick
Carter against whom the charge OF
numbering the child has been filed.
II was learned here that Judge
Arch Johnson. who has assumed per-
sonal charge OF the search for the
real kldnappers. is In Kansas City to-
day. and that following the arrest Of
Dick Carter. important developments
are expected, Carter was one OF
Claude Piersol's companions and is
believed to have been member Of
the band that plotted wholesale kid
napplngs OF wealthy Missourians.
The body OF little Lloyd Keet was
buried here this afternoon In Maple
Park cemetery, Thousands Of people
attended the funeral
That a woman was the guiding
spirit In the Keet kidnapping case,
and not only participated In the ac-
tual abduction, but was the brains
behind the conspiracy, is the belief
OF police today, In fact, the only
clues, black silk skirt and three
letters held by the police, point to
nothing else.
