Jarrett of Columbus, in exploiting a so-called "miracle wheat," is using the name of the board and its secretary in a way that has led not a few to believe that a this board was recommending the wheat. The board most emphatically disclaims any responsibility that connection. It has not recommended anyone's "miracle wheat" to anybody. The person the name of this board and its secretary. in exploiting this wheat no authority whatever for that action.

The board knows nothing about this wheat that would elicit a recommendation. Some of the literature concerning "miracle wheat" that has come to this office contains such bombastic statements, it might be well to refer to the report of Professor L. A. Fitz of the Kansas State Agriculture College, in regard to milling and baking test made with a sample of the wheat sent him. Professor Fitz says, in part: 'The sample in question showed fair qualities for soft winter wheat.

It milled very soft. We could find no reason for recommending it over and a above the average commercial lots of wheat purchased in your section (Southeastern MOSQUITO BILL HEARING Puts Cost of Drains on Property Benefited.

To the resourcefulness of Police Sergeant Hugo O. Wunsche is due the arrest of Cliff Abelson, 23 years old. of 255 Madison street, Manhattan, and his appearance in the New Jersey avenue court to answer a charge of larceny. When stationed at Utica avenue and Park place yesterday, Wunsche saw Abelson riding a. bicycle at breakneck speed along Park avenue, and he stopped and arrested him on the charge of speeding, for which Abelson was arraigned in the Gates avenue court this morning.

Sir Horace Smith-Dorrien Convinced Fall Will See Peace Declared.

Montreal, April 28 General Sir Horace Smith-Dorrien, commander of the British second army in France, does not think there will be another winter campaign. He made this statement in a speech he delivered to the officers of the Canadian contingent just before that force was moved from Neuve Chapelle to Ypres, an extract of which has just been received here. General Smith-Dorrien said: "No one can say definitely when the war will end. As you know, we are optimistic out here, and rightly so. I do not say the war will end in one month or two months, but I think I can promise you that there will not be another winter campaign.

We know that Germany's reserves of fighting men are nearly exhausted. They have one more reserve to draw on, and when this is trained and put in the fleld they will have used every available man. We are satisfied of this, and so is General Joffre." BENCH HONORS JUDGE FORKER. Special Session Justices Adopt Resolutions of Respect for Late Colleague.

SAY HE TOLD B.R.T. TO IGNORE P. S. ORDER Inspector Edgerton Accused, Will Be Given Hearing Monday. TO PROSECUTE B.

R. T. MEN. Colonel Hayward Will Proceed Criminally in Cases of Failure to Obey Orders. On the charge of telling officers of the Brooklyn Rapid Transit Company that they need not obey an order of the Publio Service Commission quiring destination signs on elevated trains, Assistant Supervising Inspector Walter T.

Edgerton of the Commission's Transit Bureau, 1s to be placed on trial before the Commission. Edgerton, who lives at 523 Guion avenue, Richmond HIll, denies the charge, which was brought by Commissioner Hayward. It is planned to give the a hearing before the entire Commission next Monday. Inspector Edgerton's difficulty reveals the activity of Colonel Hayward during the past few days in trying to start prosecution of two B. R.

T. officials, for failure to obey the destination mark order. Colonel Hayward was in conference with District Attorney Cropsey last week, and decided to swear a complaint for the arrest of Vice President S. W. Huff and Superintendent D.

J. DempBey of the B. R. T. Mr.

Hayward said today that he was actually on the way to Brooklyn to swear out the complaints with Edgerton when he learned facts which, he asserted, made him suspiclous that Edgerton had been negotiating with the B. R. T. officials. Hayward claims that Edgerton gave consent to the partial violation of the order, taking it upon himself to do so without consulting the commissioners.

Incidentally, Colonel Hayward today announced his plans for invoking the section of the Public Service law making violations of the Commission's orders a misdemeanor. "I intend to proceed criminally against public service corporation officials," said the Colonel, "whenever an order of the Commission is disobeyed if the three following stipulations are facts: That the order could reasonbaly be obeyed, that the disobedience was not by accident or inadvertence, but wilful and deliberate, and that there is improbability of quick relief being afforded by civil suit." The order involved in the Edgerton case was issued in September last, to compel the B. R. T. to have destination taken signs on all its "L' trains.

Checks late in March and early this month showed a number of trains without such sings. DUE IN THREE COURTS AT ONCE. Man of Many Summonses Speeded on Way With Fine.

No man or woman who eats meat regularly can make a mistake by flushing the kidneys occasionally, says well-known authority.

DON'T SHOOT! WAIT! It's Only a Police Sergeant: Training Dogs to Catch Thieves. Forker's Prophetic Poem And Mayo's Poetic Answer The tragic suddenness of the death of Special Sessions Justice Howard J. Forker, as well as the gentleness of his character, are revealed in a letter from him which was received by Democratic County Leader John H.

McCooey yesterday. Justice Forker died on Sunday, and the letter addressed in his own bold handwriting, was written on Saturday, following a conversation over the telephone with Mr. McCooey. The letter contained copies of Justice Forker's poem, "'The Ghost of Me," written shortly before his death, together with an answering poem written by his friend, Justice John B. Mayo of Manhattan.

The two poems follow: THE GHOST OF ME. HOWARD J. FORKER. Tho' I may walk in fear by night, And dread a ghost to see, cannot think my friends would shrink To see the ghost of mA. For I would surely come again When fun and fancy came, And watch them laugh away the hours And love them just the same.

If they should see me standing near, I think that they would know I did not grieve to see them a gay, But liked to have it so. And. if, any in hour time of of fear, grief or pain, came to them, they would not dread To have me waiting near. But bring me to the friendly fire, And make me welcome there, And think, unchecked, their troubled thoughts And tell me all their care. For they would know I only came Across the lonely years, To feel their human weariness, And share their human tears.

Justice Forker sent the poem to his friend, Justice Mayo, and the following lines came back: My dear -Many thanks for your charmIng lines. None who knows you would ever suspect that any sepulchral intrusion from you could be other than benign, and BATTERED, BUT KEEPS MUM. Truck Driver Refuses to Complain Against Accused Motorman. With his head swathed in bandages, Joseph Tierncy, a coal truck driver of 103 South Ninth street, Brooklyn, peared in the Gates avenue court today, in the case of Charles Dobson. 22 years old, a motorman of 923 Fulton street, who was charged with felonious assault.

It had been expected that Tierney would make a compiaint against. Dobson, but this battered driver would not do, and the case was dismissed by Magistrate Walsh. Tierney stated that when driving his truck at DeKalb and Tompkins avenues yesterday, a city fireman leaped from a car that had been following the truck, and pulled him from his seat, and that thereafter the motorman of the car struck him over the head with a brake handle. Despite severe quizzing by Magistrate Walsh, however, he refused to state that Dobson was the man who attacked him, nor would be make a complaint against the motorman. An investigation to determine whether or not influence had been exerted upon Tierney probably will be made by the court.

NEWBURGH TO HAVE PAGEANT. The City of Newburgh is to have a great pageant to celebrate the fiftieth anniversary of the granting of the 4 city and 8, charter and the afternoons of Juno on the evenings of June 5 and 7. The pageant will portray events in the history of the locality from the time of the coming of the German Palatine Settlers in 1708 to the present day. It will be held in the open air on the grounds of Washington's headquarters. This site is peculiarly appropriate as it was here that Washington and the American Army were enjust before the close of the Revolution.

If you happen to live in Prospect Park South and should see a flerce dog some dark night attack and throw a burglar to the ground, don't get excited and shoot the man. The marauder may be In your back yard but don't let that induce you to shoot. It will probably turn out that the man is a policeman and that he is simply "training" the police dogs that patrol this section. Alexander S. Bacon, chairman of the committee on police of the Prospect Park Association, has issued a circular, to members of this organization warning them not to be too handy with their guns and explaining what 1s going on.

A number of dogs have been assigned to a police sergeant who? is now training them to attack "criminals." Formerly there were well trained police dogs in this section, but they were removed. Now new ones have been put there. In his circular Colonel Bacon explains that the dogs are practicing on a policeman dressed up with a mask, carrying a bag. He says: "It is the purpose of the sergeant to have every dog capture this "criminal" in the vicinity of every house in the Park. The dogs are found to be most efficient when under the command of one whom they know and in operating in places where they have once captured their man.

It will, therefore, be seen how desirable it is to have these familiar with their work in the immediate vicinity of each house in the Park. There has been no burglary under this new regime in our vicinity while these dogs have been on duty, excepting one (about four months ago) in which case se the dog captured the burglar. The dogs are at work on Sunday evenings from 6:30 p.m. to 6 a.m., and on all other nights from 11 p.m. to 6 a.m.

If the weird ghost should visit me, day or night, on land or sea, 'Twould not, I'm sure, bode ill to me, But waft both peace and charity. But why, old friend, speak now of ghosts, When Life's so rich and Hope's so free! May Charon's bark long empty be Ere he makes freight of thee and me. And if across the Styx we go, To Rhadamanthus' somber court, May not two judges such as we Usurp his robe and share his sport? For that old rogue must weary be With scanning sprites eternally, And welcome aid from thee and me To give each ghost his grewsome berth. And then, at last, we jolly three, Old Rhadamanthus, thou and Shall frisk about in ghoulish glee And fill his realm with rhapsody. JOHN B.

MAYO. Clerks of Court Take Action on Death of Justice. Suspending sentence crew, Ag they fill up with fiendish brew, And chant their thanks to thee and me, That Raddy's bench divided be. At a meeting of the clerks and deputy clerks of the Court of Special Sessions and Children's courts of the city, held yesterday, appropriate action was taken upon the death of Justice Forker. In a minute that was adopted, a copy of which was sent to the family of the late Justice, his career on the Bench was reviewed and a tribute paid to his devotion, to his work and his friendliness to all with whom he was brought in contact.

Sympathetic and merciful as a Judge, it said he was always ready to show mercy to a poor unfortunate. "He a man that a man could love." read the minute; "kindly, courteous and obliging; he had strong affection for those with whom he labored, his humility was often manifested, he would stop and chat with a furnace man and would romp with the children of the neighborhood. Everybody knew and loved Judge Forker." Reference was made to the poem, "The Ghost of Me," that he wrote shortly before his death. UNION TREASURER ARRESTED. Butchers Local 211 Charges Michael Bus With Taking Funds.

The loss of $108 from the treasury funds of the Butchers Union, Local between October 1, 1913, and January 13, 1914, caused a meeting of the executive board a few days ago, at which it was decided to have MIchael Bus of 28 Kossuth place, former treasurer, arrested on the charge of grand larceny. Bus was arraigned in the Gates avenue court yesterday, charged with grand larceny, the complainant being Walter Klee of 949 Willoughby avenue, the secretary of the local. It is alleged that when executive board learned of the discrepancy in the funds, they asked Bus to explain it, but that he could not give a satisfactory explanation. The case was adjourned until the books of the local are investigated. BERLITZ SCHOOL UPTOWN.
