H«m a i It.ilhm Peanut Vender Say* be Loat One
Thonaand Two Hundred Dollars that he had
Sated.
Peter Frank,'an Italian peanut
vernier, who resides in Main street,
near Ward street, Paterson, N. .T.,
•♦•ported to the police of that city
Thursday that ho had been vobhed of
one thousand two hundred dollars.
His story i< that in bis twelve years’
-residence :n Patterson ho managed to
save a little over one thousand two
hundred dollars, which lie, up to a
short time ago, had deposited in a
New York bank. Owing to the re
cent scare among bank depositors, he
withdrew his money and secreted it
in his hou e Last week a fellow-
countryman stopped at his place and
professed to be an old acquaintance.
The newcomer appeared to have
considerable money, and lie frequent-
. si towed F.iank rolls of coin. Frank
returned this mark of confidence by
telling the stranger that- he had
twelve hundred dollars in his house.
man appeared astonished that lie
should keep bis money in the honse
instead of placing it in a bank, and,
. on his assurance that the banks were
all safe again, Frank determined to
return bis money tp the bank.
On Monday- Frank and bin friend
entered an Eric Railway train at the
Paterson depot. After passing Clif-
ton the stranger said that he wanted
to go into the next car for a minute.
Hte left a valise with Frank, with the
•caution to look out for it, ns it was
full of gold. Frank remembered no
more until he awoke in the Jersey
City depot, and found that he. had
been robbed. The valise, on being
opened, was found to contain two
bags • «f-hot
at his loss, and until Thursday told it
to no one but the members of bis
family. ‘
The police do not. dogbt the story,
lint they do not expect to find the
thief. During the 'week’s acquain

grocers and batchers were arrested
for selling adulterated or impure arti
cles of food, prosecuted and punished.
The result has been'extremely benefi

J. C. WELKINS,
The Adnlteration of Food
The Boston Bulletin has takey up
the subject of the ci-i.ipn of fiuul,
IliwWlI illHMitf
thereiu-TT*a^ a F f lll
ns feus wear eating altogether. N>tb.
jug; is. what il seeuis to lic^ every,
tiling is .ndulUTateil. Con..‘e*w ien
noli! ill packages, is often nothing but
a erimpumhl ot roasted* beans, p iaJ,
cbieory, burnt corn, «lmicletio%i * mil
otbej’ roastetj grains of various kinds;
while giottnd coffee is <?tquenlly s lvv-
dnst, ‘•covered with Venetian red. -
Few, however, dare to go 'tlms Jh>,
and are generally coutent'witb adult-
eraticur the coffee with chicory. Bui
as Pciulra remarks: “ While the
grocersj on the one blind, client tlieir
customers by adulterating coffee n*>th
cbictpy, the dealers in that article in
‘“turn cheat the grocers by Adulterating
ti»c chicory.”
Tea is more difficult to adulterant
In London, however, th> re are eiglit
establishments where the grounds of
tea making, the old exausted tea
leaves, are bought up from the hotels
and coffee bouses, dried and recolored
so that the same leaves may be used
a dozen times over in making tea and
yet. be apparently as good as ever.
There is scarcely any need of going
over the whole list of adulterated ar-
• tides of food. Even flour itself is
adulterated nnd mixed with potato
siaich, bean flour, chalk, bone dust
and even plaster of pari*. White
clay and alum are some’inies added
to bad wheat flour to improve its
quality and render il better fitted for
bread making.
The mere adulteration of articles
of food, however, is not the fvorst
feature of these trade swindles.- The
watering of whysky and tho substi
tute of chicory for coffee aie, of
course, swindles, but not daugeiotis
ones. On the other hand, the articles
used to the adulteration is iiir top
often a poisen; never, it is true, used
in sufficient quantities to be instanta
neously dangerous, but at tlu same
time extremely deleterious to health
In New York these disclosures
resulted in a fierce onslaught on the
getheras husband and wife usually/
do iu that Territory t second, that he j
believes it morally or legally right for J
a man to have more tin; one diving 1
rind nndivoreed wife at the same
time, he knowing them to be alive or
in lie Territory, or to cohabit habit
ually, as with a wife, with more than
one woman.

The balance of said levy to be applied to the
payment of any other lawful charges against the
county.
The law requires tlie taves to be collected and
imd in by ihe loth of December, and it is
hereby sthctly enjoined upon tbe Tax Collector
to complete Jiis collections and to settle his
accounts with tlie County Treasurer by tlir.t
time. It is much cosier to collect tuxes before,
t.ian alter December. The law concerning de-
l;r queiit.Tax-Collectors will be strictly enforced
upon failure to make settlement within the
time prescribed by law, without a lawful excuse.
