Moundsville, W. Va„ Feb. 11.—That
counterfeiting has been conducted by
prisoners in the West Virginia peniten-
tiary was among the additional charges
filed last night before the legislative
committee investigating the institution
by Delegate Moore. This charge was
sustained by ..tire testimony of Prison
Guard Strader, given last night, that
several months ago he found a com-
plete counterfeiting kit in the cell of a
prisoner named Jones and that half
dollars were made with it by convicts,
many of which had been circulated out-
side the prison, and that convicts often
indulged in “crap games,” using the
spurious coins. Another additional
charge filed by Mr. Moore is that cloth-
ing was removed from dead convicts
who were buried in sheets and that
their burial clothing, paid for by the
state, was again sold to the state as
new and given to new prisoners.

New York, Feb. 11.—With a scale
wheeled' into the courtroom and set in
position before the jury, counsel for
the government in its suit against the
American Sugar Refining Company yes-
terday demonstrated the methods
through which it is alleged the com-
pany defrauded the customs revenue by
underweighing sugar imports. Albert
B Lambert, a scale expert, superintend-
ed the demonstration. Setting the scale
by means of weights at 886 pounds he
successively inserted in place of the
regulation steel rod In the scale mech-
anism rods of large dimensions taken
from the government’s exhibit and al-
leged to have been used in the scales
at the sugar company’s docks in Brook-
lyn. With the insertion of the first
rod, the weight registered wa.s shown
to be but 875 pounds, and this was fur-
ther reduced as larger rods were set
in pla&e.
Coupel for the defense objected to
the demonstration, but Judge Holt
overruled the objection on the witness’
statement that the scales were iden-
tical to those used by the company.
Special Treasury Agent Robert Parr,
the discoverer of the alleged fraudu-
lent device, testified that in November,
1907, while examining the scales on
the Brooklyn docks he had caused one
of the sugar concern’s checkers narhed
Kehoe to reweigh three drafts that
Kehoe had weighed before the witness
accosted him. As Kehoe reweighed the
drafts, Parr said, the witness noticed
he kept his left forearm lying on his
left knee and moving. When Parr
asked Kehoe what he was “monkeying
with.” the checker, according to the
witness, replied “nothing. ” Mr. Parr
then made Kehoe get up and discov-
ered, he said, the end of a_ piece of
metal rod. Kehoe, the witness said,
was then placed in custody.
After this, Parr said, a dock super-
intendent ran up to him and said they
“would have to fix this thing up,” and
offered to let him name his own price
if he would report the scales out of
order. The witness would pot consent.
At the close of Parr's direct examina-
tion court adjourned until tomorrow.

inducements to particular piano shoppers. Before these pianos are offered on our
floors they are subjected to a thorough overhauling at the hands of our expert workmen, so

There is a certain element in
cereals, wheat, barley, etc., which
grown there by nature for food to brain

food contains a large proportion.
In making this food all the food ele-

many heretofore nervous and run down
people find in Grape-Nuts a true nerve

Chicago, Feb. 11.—In the estimation
of her pupils, Miss Helen McLaren, a
teacher, is a “’hero.”
Half a hundred children have turned
in essays on a fire which occurred in
a butcher shop near the school.
Miss McLaren speaks modestly of her
efforts to avert a stampede which
doubtedly would have resulted serious-
ly. .But the other teachers are un-
stinted in her praise.
Fearing the other teachers,- who were
ignorant of the fire, would let the
"younger children out without ,proper
precaution, Miss McLaren ran from
room to room, whispering the alarm to
the teacher in charge.
When one of her children called her
attention to smoke from the fire, Miss
McLaren had to think quickly.
“Children,” she said, “you may all
stand up and look out this window.
Now don’t get frightened because there
is not any danger. If any boy shouts
‘fire’ he will have to sit down and' then
he won’t see the engines.” So the
pupils watched the blaze quietly from
the windows. Instead of being fright-
ened they enjoyed the spectacle. Then
they had a language lesson on the fire.
One of the essayists described the
teacher as “a good hero,” and all said

Fighting Street Cleaning
Graft, Is the Recipient.
By Associated Press.
New York, Feb. 11.—William Ed-
wards, commissioner of street cleaning
and former Princeton football star,
who is familiarly known as “Big Bill,”
has received several black-hand com-
munications threatening him with dire
bodily harm unless he ceases his in-
vestigations of graft in the depart-
ment. One letter says cheerfully that
his doom is sealed. It was through
Edwards’ “activity” that present in-
quiries into the removal of snow frauds
were inaugurated.
Special to The Tribune.
Berlin, Feb. 11.—Advices from Baku,
the great oil port on the Caspian, tell
of the agitation of the populace there
over the impenetrable mystery sur-
rounding the» deaths of three of the
city’s wealthiest residents. The three
victims of the strange fatality, headed
by M. Krassilrukof, a noted sports-
man, went on a shooting expedition to
a small island in the Caspian, not far
from Baku. As they did not return
home at the time they had arranged to
do so some friends went to the island
to see what had become of them.
As soon as the searching party land-
ed they saw two horses hobbled and
quietly grazing at a spot not far from
the shore, but beyond these animals
there was no sign of life. The search-
ers decided therefore to proceed along
the shore, and had tnaversed about half
a mile, when they came upon a sight
as strange as it was terrible Lying
clos,e to each other were the bodies of
the men they had come to seek. Each
had the hands crossed over the breast,
as if reverently prepared tor the tomb.
Their faces were calm and composed.
There was no sign of any trouble, no
marks or bruises on the flesh, no dis-
arrangement of the hunting costumes.
The money and jewely each of the
sportsmen had carried was found in-
tact. The only things that had dis-
appeared were their rifles, revolvers
and hunting knives. Of these not a
trace could be found. The boat in
which the sportsmen had traveled to
the island lay well up on the sand
where it evidently had been drawn and
turned keel upward, as if to secure it.
In a line with the heads of the dead
men, and some twenty feet away from
them, was a conical mound of newly
turned earth about three feet Jiigh.
This was examined, with the result
that the explorers were more mystified
than ever. In the center of the mound
they found a curious white and pol-
ished stone, cut into a series of facets,
on one of which was carved an ortho-
dox Greek cross. The stone was of a
kind unknown in Baku or the district
and evidently of foreign origin.
When the bodies were conveyed to
Baku an autopsy was at once made,
the first thought being that the sports-
men had in some way been poisoned.
No trace of poison was found, how-
ever, and the physicians could arrive
at no other conclusion than that the
trio had been in some way stifled. The
affair is regarded by thos'e who have
investigated it as one of the most
amazing and mysterious ever yet re-
corded.
An Unconscious Insult.
Two business men had been talking
good-naturedly the other day in a
downtown office. Their conversation
had reviewed a number of things, and
a remark made by the proprietor as
his. caller was leaving brought up the
subject of prosperity in a rather awk-.
ward way.
“Business with me has been a little
dull of late; I’ve had only a few call-
ers,” he remarked.
The friend smilingly rejoined:
“You’ll have enough of them in a
short time—prosperity’s coming right
along. Why,” he added, emphatically,
“the next time I drop around, instead
of being able to chat with you for
half an hour there'll be so many peo-
ple ahead of me that it’ll take me two
hours to get to you—maybe I can’t
see you at all.”
“I hope so,” rejoined the proprietor,
cheering up over the prospects of re-
newed busines activity.
His caller literally "stormed” out of
Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy the Most
Popular Because It Is the Best.
“I have sbld Chamberlain’s Cough
Remedy for the past eight years and
find it to be one of the best selling
medicines on the market. For babies
and young children there is nothing
better in the line of cough syrups,”
shys Paul Allen, Plain Dealing, La.
This remedy not only cures the coughs,
colds and croup so common among
young children, but is pleasant and
safe for them to take. It contains no
opium or other narcotic,, and may be
given to a baby as confidently as to
an adult. For sale by p.11 druggists.
What He Needed.
Superintendent McL&ren of San Fran-
cisco’s system of public parks was in-
specting the work of restoring Union
square to its former beauty, now that
the little St. Francis has been re-
moved.
“I’m for heavin’ this un out; it’s a
bum little bush,” remarked a gardener
with a brogue.
Which one?” inquired McLaren. “You
don’t mean this beautiful little Scotch
heather? All it needs is more water
and it will grow as tall as you are.”
“You’re not very tall yourself, Mr.
McLaren.”
“Not extraordinarily so.”
“I say, Mr. McLaren,’ reflected the
gardener thoughtfully, "did you ever

and tackled the hardware man first.
“Have you any g-g-g-good t-t-t-tin
t-t-t-tacks?”
“Yes, sir,” said the obliging store-
keeper, producing his best after some ’
rummaging.
“Xre you
g--g-g-good ones?”
“Yes. The best that are made.”
“Are th-th-the heads g-o-good and
strong?”
“Yes. sir.”
“Have they g-g-g-got s-s-s-s-sharp
p-p-p-points?”
“Sure.” '
“Well, p-p-p-please s-s-s-sit on them
t-t-t-till I get back, will you?” he said,
making a dash for the door.
Presently the unlucky stammerer ar-
rived at the store and entering asked
innocetly: “Have you any g-g-g-good
t-t-t-tin t-t-t-tacks----?”
When he recovered he asked, in a
somewhat dazed fashion, whether the
house had fallen on him or if it wag
simply an explosion.
GATES HAS BEEN ILL.
Women and New Money.
The cashier, as usual, paid the loom
boss in new money—crisp, sweet-smell-
ing bank notes that it was pleasant to
handle.
.“But why is it, George.” he asked,
“that you insist upon new money al-
ways. I know you hand ever cent of
it to your wife?”
The loom boss chuckled.
“It’s easy to see you ain’t a married
man, Will,” said he. “Otherwise you’d
know woman’s nature better, and
wouldn’t need to be told the advan-
tage of taking home new money to
the wife. The explanation is, Will,
that women are so fond of new money
that they hate to part with it. It
makes them economical. They bargain
for this, they deny themselves that,
and the upshot is that at the end of
each week they have a tidy little sum,
all brand new, put by in a stocking
or a teapot.

Southern California Invaded By Hindus
Coming From Unknown Parts.
San Bernardino, Cal., Feb. 11.—The
orange growers in this section are di-
viding their time between the agitation
against the Japanese and a new cause
for anxiety in the influx of Hindus.
This latter cause for anxiety has sud-
denly swooped down upon this valley,
from no one knows where., and in num-
bers which at once have made them a
menace.
The Hindu men and women
garbed in native style, and seem to
have suddenly dropped from the clouds.
They 'are found in most of the orch-
ards, either seeking work or fleeing
from watchmen. Over one hundred men
and women are encamped along the
I Santa Ana and Lytle Creek water
drains.
Their appearance has been the cause
of a considerable stir among the white
orange pickers, but as yet no demon-
strations have occurred. The Japs are
also disgusted and several Hindus have
been stoned by the little brown ihen,
. who appear to regard the ^Hindus as
trespassers upon Japanese preserves.
Quietly the officers of the valley have
prepared to meet any emergency which
may develop from the appearance of
the queer strangers, and an effort will
be made to have them leave the county
peacefully.
