out In the prespiration, so that chroma sores' and other mischief might be caused." "Chromates in solution," said the medical officer of health for a large district, have a poisonous action and also act corrosirely on the skin. Chromic acid is a strongly acid liquid and In some cases the workmen preparing it or using It in rarlous processes suffer from serere ulcers."
London, Oct 11. Beware of cheap '.boots. In their leather, if tanned by a recently utilised scientific process, there may lurk a grave danger to .health. Blood poisoning is the danger to be feared, and according to an expert's opinion blood poisoning In a ffonn extremely difficult to cure. In the north of England a case of i blood poisoning from this cause has Just been reported, and the victim, an i Inspector of the National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children, was rendered very seriously ill. While attending a police court wearing a pair of boots of the kind warned against he collapsed, and his skin turned from Us natural color to blue and then to black. He was taken to a hospital and oxygen had to be administered to revive 'him and It was not until a week afiterward that he was well enough to 'be sent home. t Chremle Acid Causes Trouble. Tanning leather by means of chroJmlc acid Is the source of the trouble. An annalylst on the staff . of the Leathersellers' Company Technical college described the dangers of this .form of tanning. I "The process was invented by Prof. 'Schults In 1887, and It is known as jchromle tanning. At that time they .could not make It a"practlcal success, 'and It remained In the experimental 'stage for many years. "An American firm then took it up and It Is now the pioneer of the , process. The poisoning Is due to chromic acid, and occurs when the tan'nlng Is not carefully done. I "The skin first goes into a bath of (chromic acid, and is then changed from the acid to a base-bath in which the acid is neutralised by reduction with hypo-sulphite. If the chromic acid Is thoroughly neutralised the leather Is then perfectly safe and harmless. ! "But if any free chromic acid Is left In the leather blood poisoning may result, and In the manufacture of the cheaper grades of leather there is a danger that the process may noto be 'completely carried out. , "In a factory a man who works at 'the chromic acid bath is generally put .to work at the reducing bath also, so 'that any chromic acid in his hands (may be neutralised. If it is not he gets chromic sores, which are very (dangerous and are difficult to cure. (Lanollne is largely used and recommended now. L "Chromic tanning is generally used wr upper leather and not often for soles, because when wet it gets very slippery. A large number of tanners are now 'giving up the old process for the 'chrome for light leather, but it is not yet very popular with heavy manufacturers. "I have beard of continual com- ! plaints that It 'draws' the feet bad(7." "Chrome tanning is the latest word n tanning in England." the manager of a well known Strand firm of saddlers said. "We only use it for one 'particular strap on saddles which go to South America, and then it is so 'padded that it touches neither horse nor rider. "The process makes the leather as nearly as possible waterproof. It is still In its Infancy. "If chrome tanning is properly done there ought to be no danger, but if done hastily by unqualified people, , chromic acid and other chemicals are left in the leather and are dissolved
A POOD DRINK.
Which Brings Daily Enjoyment. A lady doctor writes: "Though busy hourly with my own affairs, I will not deny myself the pleasure of taking a few minutes to tell of my enjoyment dally obtained from my morning cup of Postum. It is a food beverage, not a poison like coffee. 1 "I began to use Postum eight years ago, not because I wanted to, but because coffee, which I dearly loved, made my nights long weary periods ito be dreaded and unfitting me for business during the day. "On the advice of a friend I first tried Postum, making it carefully as directed on the packago. As I had , always used 'cream and no sugar,' I mixed my Postum so. It looked good, was clear and fragrant, and it was a pleasnre to see the cream color it as my Kentucky friend always wanted her coffee to look 'like a new saddle. "Then I tasted it critically, for I had trled many 'substitutes for coffee. I was pleased, yes, satisled. with my Postum lntastet and effect, and am yet, being a constant user of It all these years. , TI continually assure my friends and acquaintances that they will like It In place of coffee, and receive benSt from Its use. I have gained weight, can sleep sound, and am not nervous." "There's a reason." Read "The Road to Wellville," In pkg. Ever read the above letter? A new ene appears from time to time.

FIGHTS FOR FAMILY John Chaloner Names Pet Pig "Prince Dolgorouki" as
Insult to Russian.
A CAMPAIGN OF DERISION
Richmond, Va., Oct 11. John Armstrong Chaloner, master of "Merrie Mills." his splendid estate in Albemarle county, and brother of "Sheriff Bob," Chanter, whose recent marriage to Mme. Lina Cavalierl and subsequent events brought forth the now famous query, "Who's looney now?" has given to the public his real object In making his campaign of derision against Prince Dolgorouki, who figured as one of the principal factors in his brother's martial troubles. "The entire country knows the fight that I have made and am still making against my family," said Mr. Chaloner. "This Prince Dolgorouki has seen fit to enter my brother's home and thereby degrade the name of my father. The man who does that will have to reckon with me. In the defense of the family name other differences are buried. I can fight the Chanlers, have done It, am still doing It, but I won't allow any one else to do it. "I have offered Prince Dolgorouki the worst indignity that can be offered a man In continental Europe. Those familiar with the customs of those countries know the meaning conveyed by the word 'pig.' I have made Prince Dolgorouki the laughing stock of the entire reading population of Europe.'
Mr. Chaloner is known as one of
the best swordsmen In America and is also an expert pistol shot, and says if the prince demands satisfaction he will be answered "in the proper manner."

PRISONERS WERE "LEARY
Hutchinson, Kan., Oct. 11. A
swarm of bees flying across the state reformatory grounds became attracted by the music of the band playing in the chapel hall. It Is known that the beating of pans and pails will bring down a swarm. The band had the same effect The bees, thousands of them, commenced to swarm, clinging to cornices of the
reformatory buildings. Windows
were hastily closed to prevent the
bees from entering the building. Some of them attempted to enter the hos
pital, where a number of Inmates
were sick, but the windows were clos
ed in time to prevent them from entering.

FIND CHOLERA CASE Steerage' Passenger Is Removed from Boat as It Enters New York City.
THREE CASES NOW IN U. S,
New York. Oct. 11. A case of chol
era has developed in the steerage of
the Hamburg-American liner Moltke, which has been detained at quarantine as a possible cholera carrier since Monday, October 3. Dr. A. H. Doty, health officer of the
port reported the case with the additional information that another cholera patient from the Moltke is under treatment at Swinburne Island. This makes three cases of cholera which have actually reached this port. The last victim is Giovanni Falciglia, 36 years old, who came from Naples in the steerage of the Moltke. He is critically ill at Swineburne Island, as is the other patient, Rudolph Sellitch, a coal trimmer, who was regarded as a "suspicious case" and was responsible for the Moltke's detention. Although he has been at Swineburne island nearly a week he is fighting the disease and was still alive tonight
