SLAUGHTER HOUSES III BAD CONDITION

Many of Them Over the State Are Reported to Be Very Unsanitary. SOME ARE FOUND CLEAN SLAUGHTER HOUSE OF JOHN PETERS AT CONNERSVI LLE IS VERY BAD RICHMOND BUTCHERING PLACES KEPT CLEAN. Indianapolis. Ind. Auff. 2. (Ril) Pilth and foul clnditions prevail In many of the .slauliter-liouses of the State, .according to the reports of the health 1 officers that have been received by the State Hoard of Health. These officers werp instructed by the State Hoard to make inspection of all fifauKhterhonses in their cities and towns and send in eoniolete reports on the actual conditions as they found them. Blanks were furnished for this purno.se. Most, of the reports state that conditions are fair, and some of them are actually nlven as Rood, but Ihere are many that, tell of frightful disrepard for all sanitary considerations. For instance, the renort on the slaiiEh ter-house of John J. Peters, of Connersvllle, says that, the building is dilapidated and very foul, both inside nnd outside. There are large, piles of bones and offal reeling with vermin. The floor, the report says, is covered .with mud, tobacco juice and other filth, giving off a had odor. The hog yard out&ide is said to lie !n bad condition. This is only a sample, of the ldnd of reports that have, been received. Tub of Decayed Meat. A tub of decayed meat was found in the refrigerat ing-room of the establishment of Ronth & Co, at Logansport, Recording to the report, and refuse Is dimmed almost at the door of the place. Abe Stern, of Transport, rso tho renort says, has a slaughterhouse in which there is an abundance of decayed matter. "I don't see how the place could be dirtier," is the wav the health oflicer of Hoonville nuts it In his report on the slaughter house of Meyers Pros. New Laws Are Needed. Dr. J. X. Unity, secretary of the State Hoard of Health, says that all the information contained in the reports will be tabulated and nlaced before the people of the State In the hope that the knowledge of the frightful conditions will arouse public sentiment to such a point that legislation will be demanded that will bring about better conditions. As it now stands there Is practically no way for the State Hoard to reach the offensive and dangerous places. It Is un to the local authorities to handle the matter in each locality, and in many cases the town or city Councils will not do a thing. Therefore, Dr. Hurty says it is necessary that additional legislation be passed that, will nut it in the handa of the State boanl to see that all such bad conditions are overcome and that the killing of animals for food in this State be done in the proper manner, with full regard to sanitary rules. The State Hoard of Health will nsk the next Legislature for such ,aws. Enlarged Their Offices. The office of the N'icholson Printing Jng Company is being enlarged, the room occupied by Ott Krone, tailor, Js to be utilized by the company.

TAXES DELINQUENT

FOR FIVE YEARS Judge Hoffheimer of Cincinnati Decides Against Central Life Company. THEY MUST PAY $182,728 EX-GOVERNOR PATTISON'S COMPANY OWES MUCH MONEY NOTICE GIVEN THAT DECISION WILL BE APPEALED. Publishers' Press Cincinnati, O., Aug. 2. In a voluminous opinion, Judge H. M. Hoffheinier, of tho superior court, today decided that the I'nion Central Life Insurance Company of this city, and of which the late Governor John M. Pattison was for years president, is indebted to Hamilton county $12,72s. SS for back taxes. The judgment is for delinquent taxes for the years 1V7 to I'iOI inclusive. There were two classes of alleged omissions money owed on policies at maturity, and deposits in bank against which checks had been issued, but. afterward cancelled. The court holds that both represent taxable property. In addition to the taxes due, there attaches also a five per cent, penalty for delinquent taxes. Judge Hoffheimer finds, briefly, that the ret'Tve fund must be held noe to be a legal bonafide debt, owing, and therefore not deduetable from taxable assets. He finds that the cash in hand on taxing days was not affected by the issue of checks against it on those days, as they were never cashed, and that therefore tho deposits represented bonafide cash on hand and are not deduetable from the taxable assets. There is yet pending a similar suit for a much larger sum. Both suits were brought some months ago by tho present county treasurer, R. K. Hynicka. President Jesse R .Clark, of the company said this evening: "We will appeal the case. That is all I care to say about it now." A BRAZILIAN STATESMAN". Dr. Joaqnln A, nbnoo, President of Pan-Amor 1cm ii Consreat. It is customary for the president of a pan-American congress to be a citizen of the republic in which it is being held. Iu accordance Avith this precedent the conference which met on July 23 at Rio Janeiro chose a Brazilian for its presiding officer in the person of Dr. Joaquin Aurelio Nabuco de Araujo, ambassador of Brazil to the United States. The choice was recognized as an appropriate one and as complimentary to tho United States, in view of his being accredited to it as ambassador. He is one of the ablest statesmen of Brazil and a diplomat of wide experience and varied knowledge. Dr. Nabuco is not only a statesman and a diplomat, but also an author and a scholar of unusual attainments. In his writings he has expressed sentiments of special friendliness toward the United States, and for this reason his appointment as the first ambassador of Brazil to this country was most pleasing at Washington. When a young man he graduated from the law dePR. JOAQCIX A. NABUCO. partment of the universities of St. Paulo and Pernambueo and went to Europe to round out his education. lie began his diplomatic career in 1S76 as attache of the first class to the Brazilian legation in Washington, where he remained for three years. He was afterward minister to England and envoy in a special capacity to Italy. He was for some years a member of the Brazilian congress, and it was during that period of his career that he took an active part in the abolition of slavery in the republic. He is popular with his countrymen and with the diplomats of the two Americas and on this account and because of his knowledge of affairs is considered especially well qualified to preside over the deliberations of the pan-American gathering now in session. Frait Skins. The skins of fruit should never be eaten, not because they are not palatable or digestible or are unheahhful in themselves, but on account of the dan ger arising from microbes, which may have penetrated into the covering of the fruit. Tho Otter's Tail. The tail of the otter serves not only as a rudder, but also as a means of propulsion, its movements closely resembling those of a screw propeller. Sympathetic? Ink. A good sympathetic ink is made with the chloride of copper. Writing or drawing on paper with this ink is invisible at ordinary temperatures, but when the paper or .parchment is heated the writing or drawing at once appears of a beautiful xaZlowisb. color.

SEC. TAFT WILL ASSISTj

He Will Deliver at Least O-e Speech For Representative Littiefield in Maine. f Publishers' I'rrssj Washington, August 2. Secretary of War Taft will assist in the Maine campaign by delivering at least one speech in Representative Littlefield's district early in September. The avowed purpose of organized labo:- to defeat Mr. Littiefield because of his attitude toward measures which the American Federation of Labor supported is focusing attention upon Maine. It has alread:- been announced that Speaker Cannon, who lias also been singled out for labor opposition, will assist Mr. Littiefield. Did Kot Appreciate Advice Offered Kim T was on an open street car, aud the passengers put it down that the man with Lis jaw tied up had the toothache. One of them was not satisfied Avith Inference, but leaned forward and solicitously inquired: "Does she lift you when she aches?" The sufferer glared at him, but made no answer, aud he presently continued: "I'll bet it's a double tooth and that the dentist wiU have to yank three times on it." "You villain:" shouted the sufferer as he wriggled arouud, while three or four others made indignant protests. "All right, all right; I won't say any more," said tho stony hearted man as he sank back, "but for the information of the crowd in general I will observe that toothache is caused by the cold air striking an exposed organ. You probably never gave a thought to it, but there are exactly .'Vr'00 nerves radiating from your gums, aud the exposure of any one of these causes pain. Speaking of teeth, do you know what the strength of the Jaw is? It is computed that when a full grown and healthy man shuts his teeth down as hard as he can on a pine board he Is exerting a force of one horsepower. Every time you bite into a sandwich you use enough force to open a door. Should you yell 'Police:' at the top of your voice the air pressure would be sufficient to lift one of y-our shoes seven inches high. Should you .sneeze you waste power enough to pull a turnip out of the ground, and the force of a hearty laugh would drive a brad awl halfway through a raw potato. That's all, ladies and gentlemen, and no collection will be taken up or vote of thanks looked for." Brooklyn Citizen. Ahead of the Times. "I'm living in the wrong age," grumbled the little old man who was sitting outside of the postofllce whittling a peach stone. "How's that?" queried the horseshoe ealcsman. "Why, be gum, I should have been livin in an age when thar wa'n't nothln' but automobiles and airships." "Why so? Horses ever give you any trouble?" "Trouble? Waal, I reckon they have. While I went to the circus the old woman ran away with a boss doctor. If thar hadn't been any bosses thar wouldn't have been any boss doctors, and I would have had the old woman yet. No, sir, young man, I was born too early." Chicago News. VETERAN LABOR LEADER. Sam pel Gomprrs and tils Work for Xi'agf Flurnerw. Much attention has been given to the declaration of the executive council of tho American Federation of Labor calling on members of union labor organizations to go into politics for the purpose of electing men friendly to their cause to scats in the house of representatives. Samuel Gompers, who as chairman of the executive council and president of the Federation of Labor, signed this document and helped to prepare it, speaks for an organization V-V- c y.j.v.v -.. ..was' .c.': Copyright, oct riwi' jf 'J "'-' ' J E.Pur.ov.BOgrcw. Jgr7 ' SAlrt'Et, OOUPERS. of over a million members, and the influence this organization possesses is largely due to his efforts during the many years he has been at its head. He was born in England iu 1S.A but mat of his life has been spent in this country. His father was a cigarmaker and at the age of ten ie went into the shop and in time became a journeyman, working at the making of cigars for twenty-six years. His lingers have not lost their cunning and the president of the Federation of Labor can still roll as good a cigar as any one need wish to smoke. He was once asked regarding the income he received as the chief officer of a great labor organization and in reply stated that though he had been president of the federation for more than twenty years he had not grown rich on his salary during tisat time. For the first hve years he received no salary, working at his trade to support himself and doing his work of organizing unions at night or ou holidays. At the end of that period he gave up cigarmaking and devoted his entire time to the federation at a salary of $1,000 a year. Gradually the salary was increased until it reached $2,100. and it was only about two years ago his compensation as head of the order was made $3,000.
