CONSIDERING EARNESTLY.
Parties Figuring on Plant to Make Yitrined
Brick and Sewer Pipe-Givfn.
Final Test Today,

Mr. James Green, OF St. Louis, leading
stakeholder OF the Laclede Fire Brick,
Tile and Sewer Pipe company, Of St.
Louis, spent some days n the city, leaving
Monday morning lie was giving special
attention TO the question Of finding clay
near Wichita that could be used in making
vitrifed brick for paving, and If such
could be found also to consider the ques-
ton Of establishing plant for making
such brick. also for the manufacture of
sewer pipe. He is connected with the old
est firm in that business in the west, and
the rapid growth Of the western towns IN
this section, and the fact that the time has
come when much Of that sort Of material
will be used, caused him TO come out and
figure On the establishment OF q plant
which would be nearer the point Of de-
mand He is long time friend of Stein
metz & Sullivan, who have for some time
been giving the question close attention,
and approached Mr.. Green on the matter,
resulting in the interest he has shown.
Mr. Green examined the clay found
northeast of the city and at other points
and the specimens sent to Decatur for test
and expressed the opinion that it seemed
ali right and the clay can be made into the
very best of brick for paving and similar
purposes To thoroughly satisfy himself
and to give it the final test for his own
satisfaction he took some clay with him
and will make it into brick. Mr.. Stein
metz leaves for St. Louis in a few days
with some more specimens Of clay to be
tested at the Laclede and should it prove
to be what is wanted the first important
step in the matter will be put down as
gained.
Should the test find the clay what is de-
sired it is proposed TO figure on some Of
the pavement for Wichita and in the event
the contract can be awarded satisfactorily
to all a plant for the manufacture of the
vitrifieu brick will be put in; also the
masonry machinery for making sewer
pipe. The plant to be able to handle the
brick and pipe business to advantage and
in response TO the demand expected would
cost about $780, 600 1t is said the plant can
be constructed and made ready for use in
a few weeks and little delay would be eX-
perienced from it.
Within ten days those having the matter
under consideration will have reached a
more definite conclusion.

ATTEMPTED INCE\DlARISM.

Late last evening an attempted incen-
diary fire was found at No 13e North En-
poria avenue The house is a one-story
frame building and occupied by a family
whose name could not be learned. The
lady of the house in coming in from the
we'll with bucket of water saw the light
in the cellar, and on further Investigation
found that 4 quantity of shavings had
been placed on a stone ledge Of the cellar
and then set on fire She instantly threw
the water on the flames, extinguishing
them. The shavings had been placed on
the ledge by reaching through a small
window which opened into the cellar and
the rafter and flooring were considerably
charred. It would have taken but a few
minutes longer to set the whole floor on
fire. The police are at work on the case.

THOURLE FROM CHECKS.

Some of the leading merchants report an
inconvenience coming from certain COM
panies paying their employees on Saturday
evening late with checks. They come TO
the stores with check for fifty or seventy
dollars and want to expend four or five
dollars. and 1t is impossible to make the
change. AS a result nearly every Satur-
day evening the men holding the checks
90 from place to place to find some one to
cash checks. Some Of the retail houses
have agreed to furnish envelopes to all
employing many hands, which can be sent
10 bank with checks enclosed and ex-
changed for money and given to the en-
ployes. which would, 1t IS thought simplify
matters greatly.
1t is also added that the practice Of Civ
ing checks gives those handling fraudu-
lent checks a chance to dispose of them
more readily ON occasions where so many
checks are being presented.
