(Special Trenton Correspondence.) Trenton.—According to evidence brought out before Supreme Court Commissioner Samuel Fowls. In tbls erlty. diploma* to practice osteopathy could be purchased for from *So to »J0U. without encumbering the buyer with stuffy old details of learning what to do with patients. The testimony came out In mandamus proceeding* begun by nearly 100 osteopaths to compel the State Board of Medical Examiners to issue licenses to them. This action follows the passage of the bill by the Legislature last winter under sensational circum stances, and after a Committee of the Assembly bad Investigated charges that members had been bribed to vote tor It. The measure was Intended to . permit graduates of the Osteopathls College in Passaic to gain the coveted licenses from the Examining Board , which had been denied them under the law of the previous year. It is contended by the osteopaths that the State Board has no alternative tinder the Irw of Irst winter but to issue licenses In other words, they claim the law Is mandatory. The Board does not take this view, but holds that the applicants must prove personal attendance and a residence of two

Government Breeds Fine Horses for Army Mounts

W ASHINGTON—The result of the goremmei! hone breeding begun In 1913. is Interesting. Unlike foreign governments the United State, had made no experiments In the scientific breeding ’ of horses for army uses, and It was only as the result of a recommend.Mon to congress by a number of experts who had Inspected foreign studs that an appropriation of *50.000 was set aside and the work turned over to the oepartmert of agriculture, which in turn delegated It to the bu reau of animal husbandry. Tha object was to produce desirable types of cavalry remounts and artlUvry

horses.

Thoroughbred sires had been pronounced moat serviceable by continental experts and the project was undertaken along the same lines here, though there was s desire to try other light horse types of stallion, and a few trotting, saddle and Morgan Urea ware included In the original stud. The war department had received as a donation the thoroughbred alree Octagon by Rayon d Or. dam Ortcgal by Bend Or. and Henry of Navarre by Knight of EUeralie out of Mosz Rob* by The HI Used, frem August Belmont president of the Jockey club, and these were turned over to tbs department

of agriculture.

Other thoroughbred: were purchased and there are now at the station a: Front Royal. Va.. eighteen sire*, of which ten are thoroughbreds, the others

being trotters and saddle stallions

The prepotency of the thoroughbred, experts declare, makes him ideal for the work in hand. and. as racing w j in tta darkest days when the work was inaugurated, the task of securing horaee of quality was easy. There waa s disposition from the start to render the government every assistance In a work that Is regarded as second to none In economic Importance.

With Russia s appropriation for 000 for 1314. and the exar adding i from bis private purse, there was < priatlon for the work Id the United from the original *50.000 to *30.000. that It must carry on the work for i

“Snookums" Gets a Government Job at the Zoo I T usually takes a civil service examination to enter the United States government's surveying corps, but such red tape did not trouble "Snookums He nonchalantly annexed himself to the government surveying party at Papago reservation. Arizona, and now he baa obtained a permanent appointment He even got free transportation to Washington to take his new job. Now "Snookums" is on duty i the Zoo. He doesn't have much t do—Just walk up and down for vli tore to look at. but a number of calls already have been paid by government surveyor*, for bis fame had preceded him. Edward Anderson. Jr. son of Dr. and Mrs Edward Anderson of RockvlUe. discovered "Srookuma" His position not only fo"nd him. hut those who assigned him to It had an Interesting time xplrltlng him away from his mother. He was found while Mr. Anderson and his associates ware surveytog near the Mexican line, in Arizona. The wildcats are regarded as dangerous animals in that region, and even after "Snookums" was taken to camp. It wa* feared his mother might track him by night and put up a fight to rescue him But the rest of the family probably kept her home. The party became attached to the mascot, and. when the work was den* It was decided that “Snookums" ought to remain In the government service Superintendent Baker of the Zoo bcr« wrote that he would ha glad to provide permanently for the animal Meantime the cat had become domesticated.
