Drug Store and Freight Office Broken
Into.

On Thursday night last parties I'M

store Of w. III. Buck but were scared
away either by the breaking Of the
glass or by someone passing. After
breaking one of the back windows just
above the catch the glass fell through
and knocked over several empty bot
ties that were standing near and which,
on their fall to the floor, must have
made considerable noise. No other
damage was done. During the same
evening the freight office was entered,
drawers pried open and papers scat
tered but the loss was only 40 cents in
pennies. Several articles in the cloth
ing line were overlooked.

MILK MAIN DIET OF AFRICAN
TRIBE

Rev John Roscoe 'ethnologist, who has
spent much time studying the life and
habits of savage tribes said in an address
in London last week that in one country
in East Africa milk is the principal diet:
also that no oma of that section is
considered really beautiful until she has
become so fat that it is difficult for her
to get about on the hoof. Men in one
tribe consider that they are poor and
cannot marry if they do not have more
tn, n 100 COWS If such a mar wants to
marry he finds a couple of others in the
same fix and all three form a ''syndi-
cate," taking unto themselves a common
wife whom they jointly provide with
sufficient milk to make her beautiful"
Rev. Roscoe said that the first princess
he met was so fat that she couldn't get
through her own doorway to greet him.
The people. however thirst for know
ledge as we'll as milk. he says. and they
will send their children many miles to re
ceive an education. Another investiga-
tor found in his travels that the price of

BLAMES CRIME ON PROHIBITION.

Declaring that the way to reduce
crime is through education and Christian
lzatlon and not through penalties, Gov.
C;ornWell of West Virginia declared at a
church gathering that in his belief the
prevalence of crime in the United States
IS due to the prohibition law and attempts
to enforce it. Men have mo- accus-
toned themselves to the new law, he
SAID, and the number of violations and
arrests is astonishing" He says that
some houses have been unable to operate
on account of the number of their m
ployees, in Jail. Ibid.
