Ho went from hero to Omaha and shortly 1 f tor poisoned tho Earing family. A close watch was kept for tho vounj tn;in in this city as it was known he had friends here, but he was 1 ever teen. This is about the sixth time his ar rest has been renorte'd, but it is be lieved that the right man is under ar rest this time. The World-IIorald said. "Chief Gallagher is in receipt of a letter from Chief McMahon of Litte Itock, Ark., including a photograph of a colored man under arrest there supposed to be Joe Williams, who live years ago poisoned Mrs. Ewing, her daughter and son with "rough on rats" to revenge himself for their in terference with his plans to marry Edna Ewing, now a girl on the "line." The picture will be shown to the Ewings today with a view of having it identified as that of Joe Williams, and if so requisition papers will be secured for his return on tho charge of murder. Williams disappeared im mediately after he administered the poison in coffee served to his victims and has so far evaded arrest. Mrs. Ewing and tier daughter died trom the effects of the po son."

A far mer three miles west of this place, who has about 20J head of hogs, has been losing three to four of them daily for a number of weeks from a disease with some peculiar character istics.

Supply of No. 1 Hard All In the Hands of I.elter. Chicago, Jan. 31. Joseph Leiter, according to experts in tho trade, is forcing thousands of people to eat darker bread than has ever been seen since the introduction of the patent roller process of making Hour. His control of 15,000,000 bushels of contract wheat means, they sny, that tho mill ers are grinding the best grain they can procure since the supply of choice No. 1 hard spring wheat has become exhausted and that beit is not very good. Grocers and retail Hour dealers have been rsceiving complaints re garding breadstuffs from cooks and housewives who have sent back sacks and barrels of flour marked with tho fancy brands and bought at highest prices. But the loudest protests have been raised by the restaui ateurs and bakers who buy flour at wholesale. Commissioner of Health Reynolds today sent out men to gather samples of Hour from leading dealers. This flour will bo analyzed and definite in formation given to tho public as to the nature of the adulterations which are said to havo resulted in a general prevalence of dark bread. Commis sioner Reynolds said: "If corn has been used to adulterate the wheat, there need be no alarm so far as health is concerned. Corn is an emi nently healthy food and if wheat should ever bo cornered so as to pre clude its purchase by the common people,corn could easily fill tho pla-je." It is announced that the farmers of Macon county will have an exhibit of corn, in all its shapes and styles at their annual fai mers'institute and that they will endeavor to start acampaign in advocacy of the healthful corn. The story that the wheat corner, con trolled by Joseph Leiter, is causing people to eat darker bread, caused the Napoleon of the Board of Trade much amusement. "I see," said he, "that they say my wheat corner compels the millers to grind any sort of old stuff for their customers. If they are grinding poorer stuff in their mills, why don't they reduce the price. I have not hear d of any reduction in the price of wheat flour. If the millers want good flour they can come and g3t the best there is at market prices The prices are now advanced tremendously you say ? "Yes, but note this, that the millers are charging proportionately ad vanced prices for tho mixed stuff they are grinding. That is to sny they ask just as much for their dark, adulter ated flour as if it were the purest brand. Consequently, if anybody is getting the worst of it it is the public." Pearl Steam Laundry. B.
