REPORTER BEATEN
 BY MAN IN JAIL
Warden Holds Him as Prisoner
 Uses Fists

Chicago, Sept. Ii R-Terry Drug gan, beer baron, prisoner in the county Jail, still was unpunished to-. day for an attack on J. r. Lowering, a reporter for the Chicago Journal. The assault was the second of it's kind. It was revealed recently that Druggan. who grew rich as a beer runner and brewer, had been at lib- erty many nights and on other occa- sions although supposed to be con fined as a federal prisoner for vio- lation of prohibition injunction.
 Lowering went to the jail and in- sisted on seeing Druggan. When tho prisoner was produced he attacked Lowering who was held by Warden Thomas Brockmeyer while Druggan beat him, breaking his nose and leaving him covered with blood. Lowering went before the grand jury which indicted Druggan on a charge of assault to kill.
 Some time ago Druggan assaulted Hiding Johnson, reporter for the Herald and Examiner. Guards hur- fled Druggan away before Johnson could take tho offensive.
 Brockmeyer, who explained he held Lowering with the intention of stopping a fight and that he expected 1 jail guards to hold Druggan, ad- mitted Druggan had not been placed in solitary confinement, the usual punishment for an outbreak by a prisoner. Brockmeyer said Drug gan had said he was sick this morn | ing.
 Chief Justice T. J. Lynch of the criminal court set Druggans trial on the assault to kill charge for September 21. In a statement the judge said:
 Tt is shame that Drusgan should receive any privilege not ex- tended to any other person in the Jail. It certainly is fine state of affairs when a prisoner, while con- fined In the county jail can strike and beat up citizen in the jail. Drugsan should he placed in soli- tary confinement"
 AS result of Druggan's nightly | trips from the jail, two assistant iailers were discharged. Then War den Wesley Westbrook was discharg- 1 ed when he announced that he would not assume responsibility for the Druggan affair, A federal tn- quiry was started but no result has | been announced.
 Lowering Is son ot Regina, Sask., newspaper man.

found in fruits and flowers.
Honey consists largely of grape
and fruit sugar in about equal parts
with a small amount of cane sugar
and various other foods, including
minerals and possibly vitamins.
These sugars differ more in their
physiological action than would be
expected from their rather close
chemical relationship. Cane sugar
is more complicated in its structure,
requires definite digestive action con-
verting it into grape and fruit sug-
airs is often irritating to the mucus
membrane of the alimentary canal.
The other sugars both in honey and IN
the sweet fruits, as raisins, dates,
and figs, are ready for absorption
without digestive action; further
more, these substances were produc-
ed in natures laboratory and they
are such as the human race was
rought up on, and help to balance
the ration. Cane sugar, so highly
refined, used to the extent that it IS
in this country, 100 pounds per cap
tia per annum, is apt to contribute
to the many disorders with which the
human race is afflicted.

about a year. She is an ardent adj
vocate of the slogan "Make the sana-
Etorium the first resort Of the tubercu-

Seventeen years ago, when the Wis

physicians have conducted more than

HONEY, WHAT is IT?

The accepted idea that honey is
largely sugar is correct. There are
a number of different kinds of sug-
ars, their sources usually are reaveal-
ed in their names, as cane sugar,
grape sugar. fruit sugar, etc. All of
these sugars are excellent foods, re-
leasing energy readily and resulting
in fat when taken in excess of the
bodily needs. These sugars fall
readily into two groups, first, cane
sugar, found also in sugar beets and
maple trees, and the other group

The fight against tuberculosis is a
winning one, but for so many CEN
turtles this disease was thought to be
one that could neither be prevented
nor cured that it will take long time
TO bring it entirely under control.
When the organized campaign against
tuberculosis was begun in 1908, the
death rate in Wisconsin was 1898 per
100000 population. The rate for. 1924
was 64,2 per 100000, drop of Alb
per cent. But there IS still much to
be done. There are still too many
needless tragedies caused by this pre-
ventable and durable disease. In the
