Hate of Boarder Whose Health ReIS quired Outings Finds Unsuspected Wealth In Will

ALLBNTOWN, Pa., April 9—A windfall In the form of $14,000 unexpectedly came to Harvey A. Acker, a locomotive engineer on the Reading railway, with the finding of the will of Radley Mohr, retired cigar maker and widely known sportsman, who died week before, at the age of fifty-six.

Mohr for some years, living very modestly, boarded with Acker, who was one of his sporting cronies, the pair often going out together for a day with ^rod or gun. For several years, on account of failing health. Mohr did nothjw ig but hunt and fish, and he could allys be found at Weiler's store, headIs rters^ for gunners, anglers and the gg stove league. It was not known S| lupposed that he had any fortune. & i/hile cleaning up his eiTects, after funeral, Mrs. Acker came across document which indicated it was jmohr's will. She showed it to Acker, who found he was the sole beneficiary 'of the estate, and Arthur J. D. Koenlg, clerk of the orphans' court, was named as executor.

The will, besides bequeathing to Acker a small property, said he should have the contents of a safe deposit box in one of the banks, and it told him where to find the key and how to open the box. He called on Koenig, and the two did as directed in the will.

Their eyes rolled In astonishment when they found $14,000 in new bills and gold. Some of the bills were so old in date and had lain in the safe deposit box so long that they were moldy, but they were all new in the sense that they had never been in circulation, and some of them were still in uncut sheets.

THE BELGIAN REFUGEE.

Proper Habitation !n England and Holland Growing Urgent. LONDON, April 9—The problem of providing employment and proper habitations for the Belgian refugees both in Holland and in England, is daily growing more urgent, in the opinion of Percy Alden, member of parliament, who has represented the British government in its dealings with the refugee question since the beginning of the war.

The number of Belgian refugees in England is now officially estimated, according to a government statement in ouse of commons, at 180,000, not uding 18,000 wounded soldiers in

Fitish hospitals. This total consists :f 65,000 children under 16. "I feel very strongly," says Mr. Alden in a statement to the public, "that through lack of work and proper housing these Belgians run a serious risk •&t returning home at the end of the war in a demoralized and deteriorated condition. In Holland especially the method of dealing with the refugees is still of a temporary and unsatisfactory nature they are living in cnurcnes, schools, barns, sheds and barges, and the food they are receiving is none too good. As to the employment question, little or no attempt has been made to deal with it, either in Holland or England. "I have made several visits to Holland at the request of the president of the local government board, to investigate conditions there. England and Hollalnd are faced with a very awkward task, but a serious attempt will have to be made, and that soon, to provide remunerative work and adequate residence for the people. "My belief is that the next step should be the building of some thousands of wooden huts, each containing three room's, which cou-ld be constructed by the refugees themselves, and could be taken to pieces at the end of the war and transferred to various parts of Belgian to be used as dwellings until permanent homes can be built. The building of the huts could b« made to provide work for many thousand refugees. I calculate that at least $500,000 will be required for the adequate launching of this scheme. It is the only way I know in which a proper semblance of family life can be restored to these Belgians during their temporary exile from their own country."

Fisherman In Indian Orchard, Mass., Started Worm "Farm." JAN ORCHARD, Mass., April 9.— A worm farm is the latest of this town's industries and already the outlook for a good crop is promising. It has been started by William Lee, an ardent angler, who found the fraterI nity badly handicapped this season by the shortage due to the extremely dry weather.

His farm has been in operation a short time, but a sizable increase in its population is already visible. The "stock" is kept in a shelter and fed regularly on soapsuds, sugar and bread crumbs. Later on a little milk will be added to the diet, as this is supposed to give the worms an attractive bright 'V red color, making them more effective as bait. -O-

THE BLOOD 13 THE LIFE. The blood 1b the life because it Is the nutritive fluid. If the blood becomes very impure, the bones, the muscles and other parts of the body are impaired and finally become diseased. Slighter variations in the quality of the blood, such as are often brought about by breathing the bad air of unventilated rooms, have equally sure though leas plain ill effects on the nervous system. fc Persons that have any reason to belfeve that their blood is not pure should begin to take Hood's Sarsapariila at once. This medicine has done more than any other in cleansing, enriching and revitalizing the blood and giving strength and tone to all the organs and functions.

If you want to be entirely satisfied, insist on having Hood's. Accept no substitute.,

Is Washington's New Police Chief

RAYMOND W. PULLMAN.

WASHINGTON, April Raymond W. T'ullnian is (he youri? newspaper man re-elected by the commissioners of the District of Columbia to be major and chief of police of the national carital. According to the popular impression of police chiefs in general he is their precise antithesis. His newspeper work has been along sociological lines, although .he once served for short time as a police reporter on one of the Washington papers. He is the superintendent of a Sunday school and represents the best class of young men of today.

A great admirer of Gifford Pinchot, with whom he was associated in the U. S. forest service during the Roosevelt administration, Pullman is progressive in thought and action and bids fair to make a record for police administration. He is 32 and has lived in Washington nearly all his life.

HE FLED THE FEARSOME JAG HST INTO BANKRUPTCY

Mine Host Cotterill Has "Gone Bust," and His Famous Hotel Is Closed.

MILFORD, Pa.. April 9.—No more will Mine Host Albert Cottrill draw the foaming beakers or clink the crystal ice cubes in the big bar of the old Cottrill house here. Xo more will his cheerful voice ask Pike countians what'll it be.

Mine Host Albert has "gone bust." A "jag list" has foroed him into the bankruptcy courts and his hotel has closed its doors. And some of the other seven hostelries in the town may have to do the same thing. The "jag list" has them all on the run.

Ever hear of a "jag list?" Mine Host Albert never heard of one before a fortnight ago. But he knows only too well now what it is.

It seems that there is a Pennsylvania law, dating back to 1865, which allows a county court—upon an application by any reputable citizen—to issue a list of persons known to be overfond of the stuff for which Pike county is famous! and to place this list in each bar and order each bartender to refuse to serve any one whose name is upon it.

Mrs. Mary Wolf, head of the Milford W. C. T. U., made application to the ccurt here and the fateful paper, containing sixty names, was sent out to each of the bars. "That was the end of me," said the once genial Cotterill. "Nearly all of the sixty were good patrons of mine, and when they didn't come around any more I lost all that trade and also the custom of at least sixty friends that the original sixty would bring in with them. "In a town of this size the loss of 120 customers is a serious proposition. Yes, sir, I went bust. My application for bankruptcy proceedings is now in the hands of Referee William H. L»ee, of Honesdale, and will be passed upon next week."

Mr. Cotterill was chivalrous enough to decline to make public the names of the friends who had been placed under the ban. "They're all good fellows, and it wouldn't be any use now to hold them up before the public as horrible examples." "Were they good drinkers, too?" he was asked. "Well, they could get away with their share," he replied. "But they weren't men who couldn't take care of themselves, either drinking or not drinking. Some of them were among the most prominent men of this town, too."

Thus passes a famous old institution, the Cotterill house, which for years has been one of the most popular places in Pike county. It was formerly the Dimmick house and had been in existence since civil war days.

PIMENTO CHEESE IN OHIO.

State University Makes It and SellB It at Profit. COLUMBUS, O., April 9.—The dairy school of the department of agriculture of the Ohio state university at Columbus is advocating the eating of cheese as a substitute for meat. The university sells cheese to the dairy farm customers at a profit. "The coming generation should be educated to eat cheese and substitute it for meat," says Professor R. B. Stoltz, of the university dairy school, in an interview in the Ohio State Lantern, the daily newspaper of the university. "One pound of cheese contains nearly as much food value as three pounds of meat. Americans must learn what Europeans learned long ago. If you want to help In the solution of the high cost of living, eat cheese."

One of the products of the dairy school is pimento cheese, and sixty glasses are sold every day at 10 cents a glass. To make pimento cheese, milk is pasteurized at a temperature of 140 degrees. It is then cooled to 70 degrees and inoculated with lactic acid bacteria. Rennert is then added and in eighteen hours the milk becomes curdled. The product is then put in a cloth and drained for twelve hours. After it Is taken from the cloth salt and pimento are added to complete the product for consumption.
