that he is too kind hearted to cope
with the rebellion. He thinks that
about two-thirds of the revolution

and the balance of them put in the
penitentiary.
He says that both sides In Mexi

though they do not seem to care
very much about the American sol
diers. They seem to feel that the
Americans are not going to take any
part in the rebellion.

SACCHARIN DECLARED
II
Will Not be Used in Making
of Candy After First of
Next April.
Washington, March 12*.—After
April 1, saccharin becomes one of the
family of "poisonous or other deleter
ious ingredients," and its use 'be

In other words, the children win!
Saccharin is a drug, dangerous to
th e health of children, which' candy
manufacturers and niakera 'of syrups
used at soda wat^T^fuuutalns have
been using as a cheating substitute
for augar. •,*
The very name' of saccharin is a
deception. Thie word inevitably sug
gest sugar and its qualities, but the
drug saccharin has absolutely none
of the qualities of sugar. It is in
no sense a food. It does not add a
single healthy atom to the tissues
of the body, nor d,Qe« It increase the

five hundred times sweeter than su

There was a 'good deal of uneasi
ness felt over two of his brothers
who were at Durango, Mexico, about
876 miles below the Texas border.
Mr. Varn and bla father, J. E. Varn,
Sr., appealed to the department at
Washington for protection for these
brothers, It being reported that they
were being held at Durango by Mexi
can bandits,
Mr. Varn this morning received
a telegram from Congressman Brant
ley that J. E. Varn, Jr., Is now on
hla way to the United States and
that the other brother, Grover Cleve
land Vain, la on hla ranch near
Durango and la sale from all harm.
Mr. Varn savs that the Mexican
Insurgents stole about 300 head of
cattle and two or three hundred head
fit horses from them, but that the
government at Mexico City would
pay their claims.
Mr. Varn left nls father at El
Paso, Texas. Mr. Varn went about
800 mllos into Mexico during his
recent trip and he says that he did
not experience any danger at all.
There were plenty pf Americans with
him and the insurgents and Mexi
cans did not bother them at all.
He was l n Chlhauhau oa Sunday
when the Mexicans and insurgents
fought from six o'clock ln the morn
ing to two o’clock ln the afternoon,
killing only one man. Mr. Varn
says that there were many Ameri
cans there watching the flhtt from
the tops of the houses and some oth
er high places.
H e says that he waa at Jaurex on
the day that General Orozco and
about fifty Insurgents drilled a hole
In the bank, blew it open and took
out all the money they wanted. He
cays that the Insurgents are nothing
more °r Tees than a gang of thieves
who ar e doing more stealing than
fighting. He says that they will
steal anything they can get th «ir
hands on and that one can stand on
the bridge over the Hie Brando
river at El Paso and buy anything
on e wante ard at almost any price.
Tho Mexican Insurgents rob stores
an<i business homes and sell their
booty to Americans. Mr. Varn had j
a pocket full of fine cigars which bqj
bought from come of them. j
Mr. Varn says that Gen. Orozco j
was a driver for the United States
8melting Company when Madero
started hie insurrection against Diaz
and that Madero gave Orozco a
high position In the insurgent army.'
He says that most of the inaurgents
now are former prisoners who were
released by Madero and who are now
rebelling against him.

Mr. and Mrs. James L. Taylbr, of
Mew York, reached Valdosta yester
day afternoon and are spending a
few days In this city with Mr. and
Mrs. W. H. Dyer. Mrs. Taylor is
Mr. Dyer’s sister.
Owing to the severe* rain last
night only a small crowd attended
tho entertainment given by the stu-
tlo fplks who ate canned corn, or
fruits sweetened with the coal tar
drug, were cheated of the sugar.
They were paying for food—for
sugar—and receiving a drug which
was worse than useless. It was
genuinely dangerous. The weight of
medical opinion, here and abroad, Is
that the continued use of saccharin
produces grav© digestive disorders.
When the United States pur© food
statute of T906 went Into effect,’ Its
framer, Dr. Wiley, ruled' that sac
charin came under Its prohibition
as an article deleterious to Health,
and as a fraud. 1 The food dopers got
