MAN FOUND NOT GUILTY OF POSSESSING LIQUOR FACES TRIAL FOR THE SALE OF TT

SCHENECTADY, N. Y, March z. - Can man be not guilty of possessing liquor and yet the jury fail to agree on whether or not he sold whiskey?
 Can a man, in other words, sell Ii. quor he really doesn't have?
 These are two legal jawbreakers re sulting from a Federal jury's peculiar finding in the case of Walter Thor oughman, Stacker Harbor, N. Y, res taurant proprietor.
 The jury, after 12 hours debate found the man not guilty of possession and disagreeing on the sale of liquor count. This is the first time during the term of the Federal Court here that such a verdict was returned.

COURT DECIDES IN FAVOR RIGHT
 TO WEAR MOCCASINS IN SCHOOLS

Whether or not Indian moccasins shall have free and unrestricted entry into the public schools of the Terri tory is matter which has been brought to the Federal District Court at Fairbanks for decision in a case entitled Thompson vs. Superintendent A. B. Phillips of the Nenana schools and the Nenana school board. The case resulted from attempts made by MT. Phillips and the Board to enforce certain personal clealiness measures in the Nenana schools, according to reports received at the office of Con- missioner of Education.
 The Board and Superintendent Phil lips have been ordeed to appear be- fore Judge Cecil H. Clegg and defend their action in denying admission to school of children of Thompson, who insists, it is claimed on sending them there shod in the objectionable foot wear.
 While the question put up to the court by Thompson is whether the School Board and Superintendent Phil lips have the power to exclude from school students wearing moccasins of domestic manufacture, it is not the moccasins themselves that will be on trial but the odors which emanate were, or are, a number of pupils of Indian or mixed blood, whose stand ard of personal cleanliness is said to have been below the standard required by the school The superintendent, sup

ported by the Board, attempted to correct the defects and was in a large measure successful until moccasins were reached. When students were forbidden to wear these in school, Thompson objected strenuously, de- spite the fact that the Boards order referred only to wearing moccasins in the class rooms and also an offer of the Board to furnish the necessary suitable footwear to anyone unable to provide it for themselves. He re- fused to avail himself of the offer or to comply with the order, with the re- suit, it is reported, his children were refused admission to the school.
 The superintendent and School Board base their action on the ground that the odor which is given off by moccasins of Indian manufacture is disagreeable and causes discomfort to both teachers and other students in the school. The policy is upheld by the Nenana City Council to which Thompson appealed for relief without avail.
 The action of the Nenana school authorities said Commissioner Hen derson, is in accord with regulations issued by his office. The Attorney General, added the Commissioner, holds that the School Board is well within it's rights in adopting and en- forcing regulations designed to pre- vent discomfort of either teachers or pupils. The district court, however, ruled otherwise.

ONLY MAN WHO LICKED DEWEY
 STILL ALIVE

SAN PEDRO, March 7.-William H. Savage, an attorney here, is cred ited with being the only man who won a fight with the late Admiral George Dewey. The fight was a ifs tic engagement between the two men and took place on the quarterback of the old sloop-ofwar Mississippi in 1862. Dewey was then second lieutenant and Savage was a private in the Marines, and on the day of his fight with Dewey was acting as orderly to Captain Melanchton.
 In 8 letter written on the U. s. s. Olympia by Admiral Dewey on June ,16, 1898, the original of which MT. Savage treasures, the hero of Manila Bay recalls his fight with Savage. He wrote, in part: q trust I have my temper more in hand now"
 Mr. Savage, a former judge and state senator tells of the fight as follows:
 q had been instructed to take orders from no one except Capt. Melanchton. I went to Lieut.. Dewey to report one bell.
 "One bell, sir I said.
 "'Strike it, he ordered.
 "'The captain has given me in structions to take orders from no one except himself,' I replied.
 "'You strike that bell,' he com manded.
 CT won't I retorted.
 "I'll make you do it.
 "'You cant do it. Dewey then struck at me and knocked me to the deck. I leaped to my feet and rushed at him. He went down in a heap against a hatch as I struck him on the jaw, and I leaped upon him when he got up. We rolled around on the deck for more than fifteen minutes before being separated by the sergeant of the guard. I was thrown in the brig.
 q was brought before the mast and Lieut.. Dewey was there also. l was covered with blood, having had no opportunity to wash, but Dewey had washed and changed clothing His face was badly battered and cut
 
 "'What the devil have you men been doing?' roared the Captain as he looked us over.
 CT had no business striking him, sir said Dewey.
 CT am to blame,' I retorted.
 "Dewey turned to me and said: IT beg your pardon, sir, but I should not have lost my temper and struck you while on duty
 "The captain was astonished at this display of politeness from two men who had been so badly battered by each others fists and told us both to go back to duty" In his letter to Judge Savage, Ad- miral Dewey said: How few of us who were on board the old Mississ- | ippi then are alive now" That was written in 1898, and today Judge Savage says he is the sole remain 1 ing member of the old Mississippi crew. Judge Savage was born in Ireland in 1886.

TUBERCULOSIS TEST TABLETS

of Agriculture.)
The United States Department OF
Agriculture announces the perfection
Of an apparatus through the use OF
which tablets to be used in the oph-
thalmic test for tuberculosis in cattle
may be manufactured in sufficient
quantities to supply the demand. The
material used in making these tablets
takes up moisture from the air so
readily that unless atmospheric con-
ditions are ideal it is impossible to
shape the material into tablets. In
practice it was found possible to man.
ufacture them during only about thirty
days in the year, until the new appa-
ratus was devised.
The ophthalmic test, while not Off
cial, has become very important in the
fight against tuberculosis in cattle,
and several million tablets are now
needed annually to supply the demand.
Under the former system of making
them only when the humidity and tenn
perature of the air permitted, 1t was
impossible to keep up with the de-
mand.
The apparatus, which was designed
in the bureau of animal industry, con-
sists of specially constructed, closed
chamber in which air is cooled and
dried by having the moisture frozen
out of it by circulating over brine
coils. The air then passes over cleo
trio heating coils which raise 1t to
the proper temperature, without
changing the moisture content. This
air is then supplied to working box,
where the tablets are to be made.
This box is arranged to admit the
hands of the operator without opening
