For more than three months Davidson had kept an eye wolf dens near the Niorbrara river, four miles south of here. A few days ago, considering the time ripe, he swooped down upon his prey. Taking his hired man along they found eight baby wolves in one den.

These they killed and, going to the other den, half a mile distant, found that the mother wolf was at home. Twice she apeared at mouth of tife hole, growling and snapping at then her enemies. Retreating, she would take her litter of pups to the extreme end of the hole and burrow further into the sand. After two hours' work Davidson came upon the mother and her young, 11 in number, and after a fight killed them. The scalps of the 20 wolves were taken to the county seat, where Davidson was paid a bounty of $2 each.

It is very easy, after all, to be rid of unsightly pimples, inflammed skin, blotches, red noses, hives, fever blistors and other blemishes, as a few applications of poslam, the new skin remedy, will quickly banish these troubles. Being naturally flesh-colored and containing no grease, poslam cannot be detected on the face in the daytime. The actual healing and curing process is accomplished readily and without inconvenience, the skin being restored to its natural color.

DELAWARE COUNTY SENDS SPLENDID MEN TO NAVY charge to undergo the customary ex- amination. After examining Frank W. Smith, of Westside, the other day, Anderson stated that he is the best developed man that he has examined in the Muncie office. Smith will be sent to the Norfolk training where he will undergo the necessary discipline to convert him into a typical "sea salt." Wylen Grant, of Industry, was also examined by the recruiting officer in charge of the station a short time ago and his examination showed that his physical development is far above that of the average recruit. One of the most important tests which the recruits undergo when they appear before a recruiting officer is the examination for color blindness.

The necessity of being able to distinguish signal lights at sea is very important, and a mistake in ascertaining the color of a given signal light when it is flashed across the water, might be the means of causing serious collisions which would endanger the lives of all on and cause the destruction of the fighting board, ships. Great care is also taken in examining the recruit's body for physical defecta, and caution is exercised in examining for certain types of disease. During the last few years many young men from Muncie and Delaware county have enlisted in both the naval and military service, many young men taking this opportunity to get a good training, and also to have the chance to see something of the world while engaging in the long cruises which are made from American ports into foreign waters each year. THAT RECRUITS SECURED IN MUNCIE USUALLY PASS EXCEL. LENT PHYSICAL EXAMINATIONS.

The naval recruiting station in charge of Albert E. Anderson, is reaping its annual harvest of able-bodied and physically perfect young men from Delaware county. Recruiting officers state that although few applications were made during the past few weeks that they have been kept very busy during the past few days in conducting examinations of prospective "sea salts" and in filling out the necessary papers which makes way for the final physical examination which is conducted at Indianapolis. Gunners' Mate Anderson, who is a Muncie boy, sent here in the government service to take charge of the local office, states that he has examined some excellent recruits during the last few days, and is highly pleased with the result of the success of the Muncie office. Every time a recruiting officer has the opportunity of examining a man who is nearly physically perfect, he is highly pleased, and it is with a great degree of pleasure that he sends papers after conducting the preliminary examination to his superiors.

During the past few days the naval recruiting station has had an unusually large number of promising recruits who have come before the officer in With Great Formality Gypsies Elect New King FIVE CHIEFTAINS GATHER IN WASHINGTON AND NAME EMIL MITCHELL AS RULER OF ROMANY TRIBES IN UNITED STATES. Washington, July 28. Five gypsy chieftains, overloads of the numerous tranches of the Romany tribe in this country in Washington last week solemnized the election of Emil Mitchell to the kingship of the gypsies in the United States. Following the ceremony the five chiefs spent busy hours in going about the government departments getting as many official seals, ribbons and signatures affixed to the new king's credentials as the officials would give them. It has been five years since the gypsies named a new chief.

Ziatcho Dimitio who heretofore has ruled, recently moved to Canada. Mitchell's certificate of election reads: "Know all gypsies by these presents that we, Wasso Mitchell, Eli John, John Williams, Steven Miguel and Milier George representing all the tribes of the gypsies of the United States, duly appointed under the customs, rules, and laws of the gypsy tribes the United States as representatives of said tribes, do appointelect and constitute Emil Mitchell, of city of Orleans, chief of all the gypsies the United States, Nosy with authority to do and perform all things and acts pertaining to the said office that he may lawfully do under the rules, customs and laws of the gypsy people and not in 1 conflict with the laws of the United States or any sovereign state." BEEMER NOT GAME WARDEN Cornelius F. Beemer, a constable and for some time a deputy game warden has been relieved of his commission in the later office and the work in this district is now in the hands of Warden Bravey of Anderson. Since the resignation of D. Sweeny of Columbus, all of the deputies who represented the various counties in the state have been discharged and their commission recalled.

The disunfet, wardens, and are there now in will full be no control future deputy wardens for Delaware county. Beemer it 18 understood has sent in his commission papers. But little work was done by him his efforts having been directed to constable work almost entirely until some months ago when he dropped that to engage in other work. CHICKEN DINNER "A LA HOSE WAGON" Members of fire station No. 1 claim that chicken served "a la hose wagon" is not only the latest but the best means of preparing a fowl for the table.

Last night the firemen enjoyed another one of the series of feeds which they have been having during the last few months. The chickens are raised in a tot near the station and are cared for by the firemen, who watch them grow until they have developed real chicken appetites by the time the birds are large enough to eat. The chicken dinner served last night was given in honor of Archie McCabe, who was married last Saturday night. FRANK HINKLE PAID USUAL FINE Sleeping peacefully on a railroad track and dead to the world in a drunken stupor Patrolman Lovett found Frank Hinkle at a late hour last night in a very dangerous position and it is thought that the timely appearance of the officer saved Hinkle from death by being mangled by a railroad train, which was due to arrive in a few minutes after the drunken man was found. Hinkle was taken to police station and arrested on the charge of intoxication.

He appeared before Naftzger this morning and was fined the usual amount for public intoxication. CHIMES TO BE INSTALLED Extensive improvements have been started at the First Universalist church, corner of Madison and Jackson streets. Among the changes being the redecorating of the interior walls and ceilings and alterations in the construction of the building so that the three chime bells, the recent gift of a Muncie man too modest to allow his name to be used, can he hung to the tower. A force of decorators started on the work in the church room proper Tuesday and it will probably take three weeks to com plete the work. On next Sunday the church will close until September.

Rev. H. B. Taylor, pastor of the church is now on a trip abroad and since his departure Rev. Thomas S.

Guthrie, a former pastor, has been filling the pulpit. He will preach at the regular service Sunday which will be conducted in the Sunday school room on the first floor. The new decorations of the church will be along the same lines as the present scheme. The walls and ceil ings have become blackened due 10 the dust and smoke, and with the re painting the church will present a much brighter appearance. The three chime bells are now in the hall on the first floor of the building and will be set in place within the next few weeks.

The bells are made of the finest metals and will represent three tones. and two The doner of the chimes still requests that his name bewithheld. The bells have all been named, the large one is to be known "the "Mary" in memory mother, second largest "Joseph" which is the surname of the man who made the gift and the small bell will be known as "Louise' in memory of the wife of the man who presented the chimes. Bibical inscriptions have been cast on all of the bells the bell being as follows: "Behold I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to ail people." In memory of Mary The second bell is as follows: "Come let us worship and bow down. Let us kneel before our maker." The last bell has the incription, "To glorify with one accord the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Crist." The gift which was made to the church several months ago came as a surprise and under conditions that the name of the giver be withheld from the public.

HALF WORLD'S FRUIT JARS MADE IN MUNCIE (Continued from Page 1.) came once a year and that when the garden and fruit season was over it was up to the hungry, citizen to wait until next his vegetable delicacies and table greens. Muncie has gone far toward dispelling this erroneous notion by producing cans of such perfection that the products of the gardens, fields and orchards can be kept all the year round as fresh and appetizing as on the day they were plucked. Muncie has gone far afield in expanding the range of canned products. Formerly housewife confined her canning operations to a fruits, such as cherries, pears and peaches. Garden Truck in Midwinter.

Now radishes, turnips, green beans, pumpkins, sweet potatoes, onions and almost everything else that grows is canned successfully, that the housewife who desires to serve up "garden truck" in the midst of winter, when blizzards are howling out of doors, has only to make an incursion into her cellar. Muncie's latest achievement is the perfection of a can in which meats of all kinds can be kept fresh and savory. One-half of all the glass fruit jars produced in the world are made in Muncie. The 1irm of Ball of Frank C. Ball, George A.

Ball, E. B. and W. Ball-makes three of fourths of jars the and world's entire out- of two thirds their jars are made at Muncie, the remainder being manufactured at the firm's plants in Greenfield, and Coffey ville, Kan. Two-thirds of threefourths of the world's output is onehalf, which puts Muncie away in the lead of all other cities in this particular line of manufacture.

The extent of the industry may be grasped best, perhaps, by some concrete illustrations. The establishment produced and sold this year 000,000 fruit jars, which is one jar for every man, woman and child in the United States, with some to spare. The cans are prepared for shipment in boxes, each box holding one dozen cans. If the boxes holding the output for the 1910 trade were put end to end they would form a continuous line 000 miles long, reaching clear across the North American continent. Annual Output Enormous.

The firm is preparing to manufacture next year. 100,000,000 cans, which would extend line for considerable distance into the Atlantic and Pacific oceans. Before the shipping season begins glass cans by the acre, glistening in the sun, are a familiar sight at Muncie and the product is started to market in special trains of forty and more cars. The factories and warehouses of the Muncie plant cover 35 acres. The total space covered by the factories and warehouses of the three plants is 50 acres and about 2,000 persons are employed.

The number of salesmen employed directly by the firm and the salesmen employed by the various distributers, who work for the firm under contract, make a total of about 600 men engaged in marketing the product. The Mason jar was the first reliable self-sealing fruit jar invented. It was patented in 1858. Prior to that time fruit was preserved after a primitive fashion in jugs and jars with cork "stoppers" and sealed with sealing wax. Frank C.

Ball, president of the Muncie concern, and his three brothers have been the most influential factors in perfecting the art of canning and developing the industry to its present enormous proportions. Aside from being the head of the firm, Frank C. Ball is an art connoisseur, a man of and travel and noted for many activities. He and his brothers started in business in a small way in Butfalo, N. 25 years ago to manufacture tin and glass oil cans.

They employed four or five hands.

Instead of operating immediately, up surgeom now notifies the attending physician that he wants an "autochrome," or photographic plate in colors, of the diseased condition of the patient.

This he studies before he decides when to operate and what he wants to cut away. Several Philadelphia physicians have been making these photographs, The value of colored plates in preserving an exact reproduction of a rare pathological condition is said to be great. In giving lectures to medical students a diseased condition can be better explained by using colored plates than by ordinary photographs. In the treatment of concer, color photography has proved valuable. SELL EGGS AND BREAD BY WEIGHT (Special to The Press.) New York, July and bread will be sold by weight only in Greater New York in the near future.

This was announced today by Commissioner of Weights and Measures Driscoll. He declared that upon the advice of the corporation counsel he will enforce that rule, perhaps not later than August 1. Driscoll said he will confer with all bakers and butter and egg dealers at once as to the standard to be established. There is a penalty of $100 fine for the refusal of a baker poulterer to weigh out bread and eggs' in the presence of a customer. CORPORAL SPOILS CHANCE BY TOO MUCH DANCING (Special to The Press.) Washington, July J.

Myer, known at Fort Myer as the "millionaire corporal," has failed to measure up to the physical standard required of applicants for positions in the United States navy. He passed the mental part of the test, but failed in the physical. When weighed it was found that he could not tip the scales at more than 140.000 pounds, whereas the requirement is 170. Young Myer, it is thought, danced much of his weight away while attending social functions in this city during the past winter. There is said to be a possibility taat the physical requirements in his case may be waived.

REWARD FOR MAIL THIEF IS $1,000 Postmaster White has received reward notices from the postoffice department giving the list of rewards which will be paid apprehension of burglars. The list gives practically the same amounts as the rewards given last year. The highest amount is $1,000 for the arrest and conviction in a United States court of person or persons robbing a mail car while attached to a train, and the smallest is $25 for the arrest and conviction of a mail carrier for stealing or embezzlement.
