Mr.. Thad Barnard, of Route 2,

that was exactly seven months old,
weighing, net 21O pounds. This pig

was given nothing to eat, thru the
entire summer, other than skinned
milk and kitchen refuse. The hog
was of the Berkshire and Duroc
strains, crossed. When member of

REFUGEE SHIPS ARE
FLOATING WAREHOUSES;
Cannibalism Feared Among
Seething Masses On
Bosphorus.

Constantinople, Nov. 22.-The con-
dition of the refugees aboard the
ninety or more ships strung along the
Bosphorus is appalling and a terri
BILE catastrophe is feared unless the
promptest measures are taken to land
the thousands who are writing In
misery and pain. The correspondent
visited several of these floating hos
pitals and mad houses" today and re-
turned to shore with forebodings OF
impending calamity. None OF the
refugees have as yet been taken
ashore, excepting the sick and diseas-
ed and the insane, the latter of whom
have been extremely numerous.
AS the correspondent rode across
the Bosphorus an unpleasant smell
from the ships was apparent notwith-
standing strong, cold sea breeze.
An American relief officer accompa
MED him.
AS soon as the pair boarded the
shipsthe clothing of both was virtual
ly torn off by half-maddened refu-
gees who begged to be taken to land
on the open hills which border the
Bcsphorus.
Men, women and children, regard
less of age or sex, are herded togeth-
er promiscuously on the ships day and
night in a state of appalling filth and
misery. Many women of distinguish
ed demeanor despite their bedraggled
appearance, offered to barter their
valuables, jewels and furs for a crust
of bread or a glass OF water In some
cases the refugees have been without
water for eleven days
The correspondent heard that
there had been numerous suicides
of desperate refugees going insane
during the night hours. They spoke
of ghostly temptation and the sobbing
call of the sea at night when they
were dying with thirst. Many of the
refugees were restrained from jump
ing overheard but many succeeded.
The American navy Is assisting in
transporting sick women to hospitals
and the Near East Relief also has
been prominent in the work. War
hardened relief nurses were moved
to tears by maddened mothers Offer
ing their children to visitors and the
scenes of separation have been be-
You'd description.
The death rate has been abnor-
NAL as the result of the biting cold
and the lack of food The Ameri-
can Red Cross is offering $4,000 IA
tions daily and several Americans are
offering donations and subscriptions.
The French government which is
in full charge of the relief work, is
incapable of dealing with the situa-
ton and is appealing to the Near
East Relief, whose funds are limited.
The fear was expressed by the ships
Officers that cases of cannibalism
would occur unless food supplies are
received promptly. In many cases
they had to fight off maddened men
from Staying children, they declar-
ed. The American hospital in SIAM
boul is crowded to suffocation and
the American Red Cross is giving all
its available medical supplies.

WILL OPEN BIDS
FOR PAVING DEE, &
LETTING OF SIX MILES
OF PAVEMENT.
HIGHWAY COMMISSION is
PREPARING SPECIFICATION
Supervisors Hopeful That Bids Will
Be Low Enough to Allow Board to
Award Contract-Material County
Will Furnish Expected to Lower
Contractors Bids.

The first effort to let a contract for
paving primary roads of the county
in 1921 will be made by the super
visors Wednesday. Dec. s. Bids
for six miles Of pavement to be laid
In ar primary roads adjoining the
city will be opened by the Supervisors
at z o'clock. The state highway COM
mission now is preparing the specifi-
cations and calling for bids. The
supervisors are hopeful that bids will
be low enough SO that contract can
be let. If not, the work will be re-
advertised and bids will be received
again, probably early in the year.
1t is thought that 1T may be pos
sihle to get bids considerably under
what has been the ruling prices for
work let this year because the county
will be able to furnish both crushed
rock and sand at a price thought to
be below the market price. The stone
will come from the county's quarry.
To Pave Four Roads
The pavement to be laid will be one
and one-half miles in the Lincoln
highway, both east and west, North
Third avenue and South Center street
roads. The pavement will start at the
city limits in each road.
All the preliminary work has been
done; The grading was finished last
year and this spring and all the field
engineering work has been completed.
The contract, If let, will provide that
the work is to be started early in the
spring and finished before the season
is over.

STOLEN TIRES RECOVERED.

Restore Property.
Three automobile tires stolen from
the Army and Navy store, corner OF
Center and State streets. were recov-
cred Monday by officer Maurice Cum
nnings, but it was not unity the tires
had been restored to the owner that
the latter knew Of the theft.

being directed to the place by a per-
son who claimed to have seen the
tires there
Cummings took the tires and be-
cause Of the unusual brand decided
they did not belong to an automobile
dealer. He had seen similar tires on
display IN front Of the Army and
Navy store and went there with the
recovered property. Two OF the tires
were larges size, the third small.
The proprietor OF the Army and
Navy store recognized the tires as
his property but was surprised to
learn that he had been robbed. He
had not missed the tires when taking
the display into the store. 1t is be-
lieved the tires were taken Saturday.

THE KEY TO GOOD CLOTHES.
Several Things to Remember in Sci
Getting Your New Garments.

Several Things to Remember in Sell
Getting Your New Garments.
When You are selecting your new
suit or overcoat, there are a mum Der
of things you should remember.
First, there is appearance. Not just
appearance of the suit when it is
new, but after it has had months of
wear. Almost any ordinary clothing
material looks good made up into a
suit. But you look ahead-can you
tell how your suit will look after you
have worn 1t for months? Are you
positive that 1t will stand up?"
Here is one sure way Of telling this.
The sample you find at Hopkins
shop are always pure wool. And only
the purest of woolens will really
stand the wear. A cotton serge may
last a long time-there is no question
about that. But it will never look
right" Hopkins clothes have that
same dressy appearance after months
of wear that they had in the begin
ming.
Another thing to considerable
trimmings. You probably never judg-
ed these as important. But to keep up
the appearance Of suit, the Innings
must be the best. The buttonholes
must be silk-because silk gives bet
ter service. To insure positively the
wear of the garment, it must be tall
ored by hand.
And tailoring-well. with pure wool
materials to start with-only the best
of trimmings-and Hopkins tailoring
you have a combination that can't
be improved upon.
Come in and see our samples-sel-
ect your seyle-and We'll build you
a suit that will really mean clothes
satisfaction for you. Hopkins, the
popular tailor.

Injunction Against
C~hirOprdctOrs Is
Under Consideration

A temporary injunction against the
chiropractors in :le city OF Memphis
will be granted II Chancellor Heiskell
finds that the Richardson case, APP
pealed from Knox county, was proper
ly tried. according to announcement
made Monday morning. Osteopaths OF
Memphis and the medical board are
seeking to have the chiropraCtors en-
Joined from practice unless they are
licensed by the state board following
examination.
Several days win probably elapse be.
fore a final decision will be rendered
in this cas- by Chancellor Heiskell as
the record in the Richardson case viii
have to be prepared and forwarded to
Memphis. This record was asked for
Monday in a telegram to the clerk of
the supreme court. When this record
is received II will be reviewed by
Chancellor Heiskell and a decision
granted.
In the event a preliminary injunc-
ton Is granted against the chiroprac-
tors they would be prohibited from
practice in Memphis unless they APP
peal 10 the supreme court in which
event the injunction order would be
imperative pending the outcome of the
appeal. John Poston and George Sill
vertooth, attorneys for the chiropraC-
tors nave announced that they will i'm
mediately appeal the case II Chancel-
lor Heiskell rules against them.
Attorneys for the medical board and
osteopaths have attempted to show
that the chiropractors are engaged in
"a healing art as defined by the acts
Of the legislature Of 1915 and 1919 and
are therefore liable to examination by
the state board. The Chiropractors, on
the other hand, declare that inasmuch
as they do not administer drugs but
simply make spinal adjustments with
their hands there Is no law on the
statute books that makes any pro-
vision for them, An appeal to the SUI
preme court will be taken by the los
ing side.
