Investigate All Hoboes.
Grand Island, Neb., July Is. =
Especial Telegram. )-Acting on a tip
received from Columbus, the sheriff
and police officers have Investigated
all hoboes coming in on trains here
during the past "a hours.
Out of 50 examined, three were
found to be I. w. w. The major
portion of the gang, headed by one
of the |. w. W., was at one time
threatening the other two l. w. w.,
alleging they had stolen a new pair
of shoes from an Old man of their
number. Columbus officials took the
two back to Columbus for trial.
Railroad officers have been giving
all ;tinerants a careful investigation
for some weeks. One officer reports
that out of 161 investigated in recent
weeks he found one I. w. w. card,
but the owner of it had not, so far
as learned, been molesting anyone.
The heads of both police and sheriff's
department declare that they have
had no trouble here.
On Last Legs.
Federal authorities will cooperate
with the state in handling the |. w.
w. situation in Nebraska.
A representative from the local de-
partment of justice goes to Lincoln
today to confer with Gus Hyers,
state agent, E. w. Byrn, jr., head of
the federal agents, admitted.
"There is nothing to fear from
the I. w. w. The organization is on
its last legs" said Byrn.
He declared Uncle Sam had infor-
nation that both the finances and
membership of the national organi-
zation is Shot to pieces" Bill Hay
woods flight to Russia; the forfei-
ture of $4,000 in bonds, largely
raised by subscriptions among the
brotherhood" and the end of war
conditions under which the /. w. w.
hourished, is responsible for the
breakdown in its morale" the fed
eral officer stated.
Treasury Bankrupt.
"The less attention paid to the I.
w. w. now, the sooner it will die
natural DEATH" is Byrn's opinion.
He said most of the l. w. w. pub
lications had been suspended for lack
of funds, and memberships are now
obtained by force, chiefly the funds
being used to pay the salaries of agi-
tator-leaders.

That is what they do for bears coats. I will take the liberty to re- peat the advice that I rendered to a sister of yours some time ago: Get one pot of rouge, or any kind of "skin food" and a. rabbits foot. Bury them together two miles from home and from any trolley line or other means of conveyance, and walk out and back Gin any and every kind of weather, snow), to be sure that they are still where you buried them.
 In addition to the above, go to bed so that you will be sure to sleep eight
 
 sible within comfortable limits, eat three meals of wholesome food, drink plenty af water with and between meals, cut out sweets aand fndigesti- ble pastries, see that the bowels and kidneys work properly. bathe your face at night in water as hot as you can comfortably endure and use a good soap as often as cleanliness re- quires (but no oftener.

PIGS As FORM OF CURRENCY
Centuries Ago the Animals Were Gen.
orally Accepted In England In
Payment Of Rent.

Quaint though they seem, the rents,
customs and services paid to the
prince Of Wales at Launceston were
once common enough all over England,
and it would be easy to show many
parallels for Lancashire and Cheshire.
In the Fourteenth century in Cheshire
rent in kind was often paid In spar
rowhawks, barbed arrowheads. pep.
per, gloves and especially In pigs.
Arrowheads would be useful, but a
large rent roll Of the other things
might be inconvenient. They were,
therefore, sold, and the relative values
are interesting. The sparrowhawks
were worth about rs cents, the gloves
two cents pair and the pepper about
20 cents a pound. Pigs, Of course,
vary In size and weight and must
have given rise to controversies be-
tween bailiffs and tenants. Some ap-
proach to q standard size was doubt
less obtained, and the pigs are usual
ly described as reasonable" or "cus-
tomary" pigs. Even SO, the price the
bailiff obtained varied greatly, some
selling for 35 cents each and some
for 80 cents. Pigs were paid not only
by poor tenants for their tiny hold
ings, but also by families as rich and
powerful as the GrosvenOrs.-Man.

Causes Of Yellow Fever.

That yellow fever has two different
causes instead of one is the theory Of
DR.. G. gampietro, whose experiments
have led him to regard the germ dis
covered by Noguchi as insufficient. 1t
"a not easy to assign all results to
mosquito carriers. He believes that
one agent Is bacterial, producing the
typical symptoms of the diseTge, but
that some other agent-such as b Ill
terable vlrus-may give varying eff
feets. The character of the contagion
and the diffusion of the infection seem
to suggest filterable virus. The fever
ish weakness in animals and the first
stage OF the disease In man are at
tributed to the virus and the bacillus
is assumed to be the cause Of the dis
turbances OF the bodily organs and
other symptoms. 1t is thought the
virus may give rise to light forms Of
yellow fever, one of which attenuated
forms may be dengue.

Find Fine kaoIin Deposits.

AS result Of Investigations con-
corning the extent of the kaolin de-
posts in PuOlanka, Finland, that have
been made this summer, it has been
found that there are actually at least
10000 tons of 1t there and an esti-
mated probability OF more than $780,
600 tons. Kaolin has also been found
In four different places in Pihlaja-
vaara. The deposits are four to six
meters deep, reports Consul Leslie A.
Davis from HelsingfOrs, but in some
cases the qualification is over ten
meters deep. 1t has been noticed that
the deeper deposits supply the better
kaoiin. According to German experts,
the Finnish deposits of kaolin, which
is the clay used in the making Of fine
chinaware, are Of excellent quality.
The material Is clearer and better
than that found elsewhere In Europe,
and the china made from it is entire
ly white.

he was plaintiff, and, true to his race,

to keep up), and thereupon began to
talk faster than ever, until finally he
burst forth at the reporter:
