Whose Business?

The public, which has as yet no direct acquaintance with Mr. Christian F. Wiehe of the Hines. Lumber company, may be Justified if it reads with amazed incredulity the antics and remarks of Mr. Wiehe when given an opiortunity by yesterday's afternoon papers to comment upon Mr. Burgess's testimony before the Helm committee. Far from being grateful for this opportunity to set himself right before his fellow citizens, Mr. Wiehe is reported by the innocent interviewers as having employed language, some of which wduld exclude a publication from the malls, and part of which is as follows: Tho newspapers of Chicago ought to be crucified. I'd like to shoot Ihe whole bunch of newspaper men in Chicago. (let away from here before I kill you. I don't know why you newspaper fellows are allowed to live. You are not fit to live upon this earth. If I bad my way you would all be shot down. Yes. every one of you. The editors are worse than you fellows. Bloodthirsty Mr. Wiche's greeting to another reporter "was an attempt to strike him with a wide swinging blow," and after some altercation the Interview continued as follows: "We now are asking you, Mr. Wiehe, if (he charges are true or if you have any denials or explanations." Wiehe made nnother lunge at the reporter and screamed: "(let out! I'll come downtown and shoot every editor In Chicago." lty this time Wiehe had forced his caller into the vestibule and was trying to open the door. "But is it. a fact that you gave this money, as alleged by William Burgfss of Duluth. Minn.?" was asked. "Draw your own conclusions!" Tie shouted hysterically. "Get out before I kill you! t"Jet out! Get out!" As tho reporter passed through the door Wiehe again tried to strike him, but tho door sill caught the blow. "I'll kill every editor in town," shouted Wiehe. "I'll murder them. I'll shoot them. I'll slay them, every one. Now you can do your worst. I think you already have done it." And then the door slammed with a bang that threatened to shatter the glass. Mr. Wiehe also forcibly expressed his conviction that it was none of a newspaper's business "whether he did or did not subscribe $10,000 to elect Mr. Irimer to the senate." On this we feel confident, that the public will differ with Mr. Weihe, also the Helm commit tee, the senate of Illinois, and the senate of the United States. Chicago Tribune.

The special term of the circuit court which has been called here Monday will be made notable by the 't rial of Mrs. Eva May Kreiter, the so-called girl-wife who is charged with the murder of her husband, Philip Kreiter. Kreiter was found dead in his farm house, twelve mileB northeast of the town of Hecla, on February 20 last. Death had apparently resulted from a stab wound with a butcher knife. The testimony at the preliminary hearing tended to show that the man had met death while engaged in a struggle with his young wife. The United Kingdom has about two thousand five hundred newspapers. Under the auspices of the Postal Progress league a two clays conference has been called to assemble in Washington Tuesday to discuss ways and means for bringing about an extension of the parcels post in the United States.

$10 SQUARE INCH FOR UVECUTICLE Burned Man Makes This Offer for New Skin Secures 23 Inches.

Ft. Wayne. Ind., April 21. Up to date $230 is the sum expended by Henry Prough of Lagrange, who is offering $10 a square inch for human cuticle to be engrafted on his own body to repair injuries suffered in an accident two weeks ago, when he was burned about the body and legs. And surgeons from this city who are attending the case say the end of Mr. Prugh's purchases is not in sight, for a good many additional inches of skin will be necessary to cover the burned portions of his body. Two men have already yielded up a total of tewntythree square inches of skin to Mr. Prough at the $10 rate, and are in the in the market for considerable more at the same rate. Mr. Prough is a bachelor about fifty years old and wealthy. In driving home with a companion a few weeks ago, he went to sleep in his buggy. Standing in the buggy was a lighted lantern, which they intended to use in unhitching and housing the horse for the night. Arriving at the barn, Mr. Prough's companion alighted to open the barn door, not wish' i' to awaken Mr." Prough until the work was completed. When the barn door was opened, however, the faithful horse darted into the open doorway, dragging the buggy with its sleeping occupant after him. Saved Barn Instead of Man. The sudden start overturned the lantern, and in a flash the sleeping Prough was enveloped in flames. Instead of awakening Prough, his companion's first solution of the difficulty was to back horse and buggy with its sleeping occupant out of the barn in order to save the building from destruction. He was successful" in his endeavor, but before Prough came to a realization of what was happening, he had been seriously burned. Physicians say his life can be saved only by skin grafting, and the offer of $10 an inch for healthy human skin was at once made by Prough. Naturally this is in addition to the services of physicians and nurses, and it will make Prough's experience an expensive one. DISH WASHING MADE EASY. This is a factor in home life which is most important, as dishes frequently permit of the accumulation of dirt and grease which are health destroyers, if not properly removed. The snow white suds of Hewitt's Easy Task Soap enters every crevice and is a thorough cleanser, providing the sweet, wholesome and clean effect to the china and glassware which gives a charm and zest to the meal. Hewitt's Easy Task soap accomplishes all this because it does its own work and leaves no traces behind. It is clean, pure and effective, and costs no more than the "cheap" kinds. WITH ALCOHOL OUT LIQU0RP0!S0N0US Claret and Hard Cider Are Most Harmful Toxic Ingredients. Middletown. Conn., April 22. "The harmfullness of intoxicants is not removed with the removal of alcohol from their composition." "With their alcoholic contents reduced to the same percentage, ordin ary hard cider and claret are the most poisonous beveredges. and brandy, gin, and whisky are the least poisonous." These two conclusions have been drawn by David B. Whitpey of the biological department of Wesleyan university after a comprehensive investigation of the problem, and observations of the effects of dealcoholic liquors upon low forms of animal life. Committee of Fifty's Report. It seems that a committee of fifty investigating the liquor problem reported some time ago that alcohol is the only poisonous ingredient of liquors and stated that if all liquors were reduced to possess the same percentage of alcohol, their injurious effects would be equal. Furthermore, a new method of dealeoholizing has been discovered in England by which it is possible to remove from the beer all the alcohol and leave it practically identical in taste and color with the ordinary beer. This new beer is supposed to be harmless and at the same time as "satisfying" as the old kind. Dr. Whitney has conducted his experiments in order to determine whether there are other injurious ingredients than alcohol in ordinary liquors, or whether liquors containing the same amount of alcohol are equally injurious, and finally to determine whether dealcoholized liquors are entirely harmless. He used in bis exleriments some small water living animals called rotifera. He put various amounts of the different liquors into the water in which these animals lived and noted in what percentage of alcohol they could live thirty minutes and also in what percentage of alcohol they couM live two or three days and produce young. Tests were made with wines, such as cider, claret and sherry and with malt liquors such as beers, and ales, wtih distilled liquors such as whisky, brandy, gin and with pure alcohol.

A FLY WAR PLANNED Portland, Ore. to Drive Pests Out of the City. (American News Service) Portland, Ore., April 22. Health officers are going to make Portland a flyless town this summer. They promise these disease breeders will be rare indeed and that the fly pest of former summers will be almost whol

ly abated. The system of flushing the downtown pavements every night, instead of sweeping them as formerly, washes the larva of flies into the sewers, thus doing away with one of the most favorable breeding places. Kvery road leading Into Portland will be oiled this summer to lay the dust and this treatment completely kills flies and renders their eggs harmless. The oil applied is crude petroleum which eontains a small quantity of carbolic acid, and is sure death to flies and mosquitos. Dr. Calvin S. White, state health officer, is very active in his warfare on flies. "There remains one dangerous source of fly production," said he, and that is unscreened food. I would advise every housewife not to buy any article of food from any store that does nt use screens. All the food exhibited in markets and elsewhere should be kept, screened from flies. Unles these pests have breeding places they will not bother us and public health will be protected tremendously." Dr. White has considered the plan to have the city council to pass an anti-fly ordinance, but he believes the education of the public along the line of leaving no breeding places for the pestiferous fly is more important.

Stereopticon slides sowing the dan-'ses of beef juice toequal the food valgers to be feared from flies, the best 'ue to the the body of one glas of good

means of destroying them, and pre - venting them from getting established in the house, will be shown by Dr. White both in the city schools and in public gatherings about the city. A lecture will accompany the pictures, giving instructions how to swat the flies. TURTLE SOUP ALL DAY SATURDAY AT ED CUTTER'S, SO. 4TH ST. 21-2t A HOMESICK PONY RETURNSJO TEXAS After Living 12 Years in Louisiana Runs Away to See Plains Again. San Antonio, Tex., April 22.Twelve years ago George Lawrence rode from Menard county, Texas to a point in Louisiana, twenty miles west of New Orleans. The animal ridden was a native Texas pony. Several times, shortly after his arrival in Louisiana, the pony got out of the enclosure where it was kept and started back to Texas, one time covering fifty miles of the way before it was caught. At no time during the twelve years did the animal appear to be satisfied when in a Louisiana pasture. Early in January, this year, the pony was missing, and on account of circumstancs at the time it was believed to have been stolen. Notwithstanding the fact that the animal is seventeenyears old it is one of the best saddlers in that part of the country, and since other animals had been stolen from the neighborhood about lhat time, it. was very natural to conclude that this one had fallen into the hands of thieves. Search was made at the time, but no clue to the whereabouts of the pony could be obtained, A few days ago, Lawrence got a letter' from an old friend in Menard county, telling him that the pony had come back to the plains of Texas and had been recognized by the brand. Lawrence immediately went by train to Menard preparatory to taking the pony back to its old home. The animal had gone 500 miles between the Louisiana point and its old home in Menard county, finding its way back to the state of its nativity after a lapse of twelve years. Discussing the matter today, Lawrence said: "There never was a time since I rode that pony out of Texas, when it was turned out in the pasture, that it did not go to the west fence, look wistfully away in the distance, and whinny. I am convinced it was homesick for twelve years." There is a possibility that the fogginess of the London atmosphere is decreasing. The statement is made that twenty-one years ago there was a record of fifty-one foggy days during the winter months, while latterly the average Js about eleven.

SAYS BAKED BEANS AREJIDIGESTIBLE Man From Home of Product Declares the Food Is Injurious.

Boston, April 22. The baked bean that has made Boston famous, the suc culent oyster and beef extract, were branded as being injurious or of no food value by Dr. Franklin White, lecturing at the Harvard medical school on "Digestion." He said that people could live more successfully on half the quantity of food taken. Professor John H. Woods, of Cambridge, also aimed a blow at the high cost of living by claiming that a 12-cent meal suffices for a day's work. "It is a hard thing to say in Bos ton, Dr. W tnte admitted, but oeaus are notoriously hard to digest. They may be an excellent diet for one leadJing an active outdoor life. While oyjsters eaten raw are digestible, they are practically of no rood value, lor they are mostly water. Pathos in Beef Extracts. "I always feel that it is pathetic to see people buying beef extracts for invalid foods, knowing, as 1 do, that they cost so much and contain so little of any value. "Twenty-five cents worth of beef juice will yield only six parts of food value to the body, while 25 cents' worth of eggs will yield seven hundred parts, and 25 cents' worth of milk one thousand six hundred iarts of real food value to the human system. "It takes from fifteen to thirty glas- : milk "Meat that is cooked rare is digested by the stomach in two hours, that which is half roasted takes three hours, and that which is wholly roasted requires four hours, to digest. "Dyspepsia is called an American disease. Surely it is not due to the fact that we have not good food, but is rather due to our bad habits." A 12-cent breakfast is all the nourishment Professor Woods, of 23 Inman street, Cambridge, who is sixtysix years old, requires to do a day's work, consisting of twelve hours' reading and study and a teen or fifteen mile walk. Professor Woods sits down to his daily meal at 5:30 a. m.. He is served with a cereal soup, four slices of wheat bread and four glasses of milk, one of which is hot. For cereal the professor always eats oat meal ;for soup, he likes pea, tomato or corn chowder, and for dessert, pies and puddings. His bill for these averages but 12 cents. He never drinks anything except milk. For years he has not. taken a drink of water except on hot summer days and then sparingly. FOUR CANDIDATES FOR WJrC.

ASKS ABOUT MONEY V Given Berry to Boost Assessors Salaries.

Laporte, Ind., April 22. G. H. Hull, assessor of Center township, Laporte county, started an inquiry to learn what became of the fund the township assessors of Indiana raised last winter to be used in obtaining the passage by the recent legislature of a bill to increase the salaries of the assessor and their deputies. Mr. Hull says he gave $6 and says he knows the assessors and deputy assessors over the state contributed from $2 to $5 each. Hull says he sent the $6 to James Berry, at Indianapolis. All he has been able to find out regarding the bill, said Mr. Hull, was that it was prepared, introduced and referred to a committee, but was never reported out by the committee. Hull says he does not rare much about the Jtf. but inasmuch as $4,000 or $5.000 must have been collected, he feels that those who contributed should get a report on vxhat was done, and how the money was expended. Hull intimated that unless a satisfactory accounting is made he intends to push the inquiry. BRIDEGROOM SHOT IN PISTOL FIGHT Vicksburg, Miss.. April 22. A. M.
