TO HAVE THEIR HANDS FULL.
High Price Of Food Causing State To
Be Flooded With AduIterated
Products.

Des Moines, Feb. 1.-THE food in
spectors- of Iowa are going to have
their hands full in the future, accord
ing to w. II. Harrison, chemist of the
state food and dairy department. The
high price of food is causing the
country to be flooded with adulterat-
ed products. Gelatine, for instance,
which formerly sold at 23 cents a
pound. now costs Ga cents. Two car
loads of pepper advanced in price
$4,000 while on their way from New
York to Chicago Such products
are easily adulterated. The depart
ment has located a shipment of pork
and beans at Waterloo from a firm in
Wisconsin which is using the soy
bean of China instead of the navy
bean OF the United States.

ter walking in circles day by day for
thirtysseven years, until he had COW
cred as much territory as if he had
encircled the globe half dozen times,
was found dead in bed at the county
home. He was rs years of age. Since
he was committed to the county insti-
tuition, thirty-seven years ago the COM
ing June, he was possessed of an OBJ
session to walk in circles. Thus in his
room he so walked, day after day and
month after month, as the years rolled
r.. Il is estimated he walked 10000
miles, covering at least two miles an
hour, six hours a day, in later years,
and a deal more.in earlier times. Thus
he duplicated the feat of one who may
have circumnayigated the globe re-
p.atedly. White was never married. A

BANDITS CROSS THE BORDER

Ell PasO, Tex, Feb. 14.-Armed
Mexicans, believed to have been villa
followers, crossed the border 60 miles
southwest of Hachlta, n. NJ. They
made prisoners of three Mormons and
number of Mexican ranch hands and
carried off live stock. This was re-
ported in telegram received here from
Hachlta by an American cattleman.
The message was sent by Bob More
head, foreman of the Alamo Hueca
ranch. He said the Corner Ranch
which is on the American side of the
line, was raided by armed and mount
ed Mexicans.
Included in the property taken were
85 mules and $1,000 in commissary
stores. Two Mexican families, More
head said, were forced to accompany
the bandits in addition to the Mexican
ranch hands.
The MormOns living in the section
were said by II leader of the Nor
mon church here TO be John Pierce

employees were made prisoners.
Washington, Feb. 14.-Great Britain
Is considering landing soldiers to pro-
tect her oil interests at Tampico, ac-
cording to strong limitations In Dip

This is understood to be the result
of General CarranZa's note which sug-
gested the cutting off of supplies to
the allies. The proposed step is in
tended to prevent interference with the
British navy's fuel supply.
Landing of soldiers merely as a
guard would not constitute a violation
of the Monroe doctrine, it was said.

LARGE INHERITANCE.
CRAZY MAN A GREAT WALKER
Two Brothers Meet After Being Sep

Caught In Skating and is
whirled to Death.

Davenport, Feb. 14.--To be told that
rich relative in Austria had died and
left him $4,000 and then lose his
liie's savings amounting to $1,000, was
tho experience of Ivan Cork, an Aus
trian, employed at the Bettendorf
stone quarry, according to the story
Cork told the Davenport police. Ac-
cording to Gork's story to the police a
stranger visited him at the quarry last
Thursday and informed him that he
had inherited $4,000 in Austria. He
was told to come to Davenport and
meet Chicago attorney who would
see that he got the fortune.
Cork claims he accompanied the
stranger to Davenport. They were met
by another man who posed as the at
torney. Cork was informed than in or
der to get the inheritance it would be
necessary for him to show that he had
$1,000.
Friday, Cork claims, he accompan-
led the two men to the bank and drew
out 81 200, his life's savings. The mon
ey was placed in tin box. The men
then asked Cork to accompany them
10 rooming house. In order to prove
his claim the men informed Cork that
it would be necessary for them to go
to Clinton. He was told TO remain at
the rooming house. They promised to
return Saturday.
; When the men failed to return Cork
became suspicious THAT something was
wrong. He opened the box in which he
bad placed the money. Instead of his
81 200 he discovered that the box was
filled with old paper.
