The Light of Other DAYS.

The date when man first discovered
how to supply himeslf with artificial
light must BE- very far back, bu, many
generations went by before ne had any
thing than torches for outdoor use. and
for indoor conveniences a wick floating
loosely in a vessel of oil. Gas as an IL
luminant is not old, the electric light is
the invention of yesterday, while there
are.thousandS of people not Yet three
score and ten, whose youthful lessons
were learned by the feeble CLEAN of a
tallow candle. In the country house
holds, the manufacture of weekly or
monthly supplys of candle came as reg
ularly as wash day. The soldiers of the
late war remember star candles very
well, but doubtless few can tell whence
the name. The discoverer of a process
to separate glycerine and fatty matters
from stearic acid in the making of can
dies was the Frenehman DeMille, whose
factory at Paris was located at the Bar
riere de IEtoile-"barrier Cor gate) of
the STAR and from this circumstance
his manufactures were known as ''star''
candles. The days of such illuminators
are gone, and the luxurious cars If our
modern railroads are lighted by gas or
electricity. To many eyes however, the
electric glare is unpleasant. but all are
satisfied with the soft Yet brilliant illu-
mination of The Burlington's" vesti-
buled train by the Frost Dry Carburetor
System. For tickets over this popular
line, or any information call on local

BLOODTHIRSTY REDS.
BAD INDIANS ARE GETTING TuR.
BULENT.
rhe white River Utes said to be Pre-
pairing to Mako Trouble The Most
Bloodthirsty OF all the Bands OF
Redskins. -s.sss.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 1.-The officials
of the Indian bureau have not, as yet,
received any information regarding
the threatened outbreak of the White
River Utes in Utah as telegraphed
from Meeker, Col, last night. The
White Rivers and their neighbors, the
uncompahgres, are regarded by the de-
partment as the most uncivilized and
dangerous bands of Indians with which
they have to deal, and for many years
past it has been thought prudent TO
keep force of United States troops at
Fort Duchense, which is on the I'M
compahgre reservation and within
easy reach 10 protect the settlers in
case of an uprising,
These bands have committed the
most atrocious crimes known in In
dian history and their record from the
earliest times have been one of treach-
cry, INSTRUMENTATION and bitter pro-
tests against restraining authority.
They were the leaders and conspicu-
Gus actors in the Meeker and Thorn
burg massacrcs in 1877, when the most
revolving and cruel tortures were in
flicted upon their victims.
In view of the present disturbed
condition of affairs on the reservation
it is believed that the order issued some
time ago by the War department aban-
doning Fort Duchense and removing
the troops therefrom will be rescinded,
The resignation Of Agent Waugh and
and his subordinates because of the
order removing the troops have not
been received in Washington.

OUR ST. LOUIS LETTER.
The New Union Depot Effective Clos
Ing Up Of the Downtown Pool
Rooms

ST.. Louis, Oct. 27,-The birth OF a
suspicic in the minds of the Board OF
Public Improvements that the terini'
nal roads which are building the new
Union depot intended to gobble up a
part of q street has led to very full
explanation of the plans of the com.
pany. 1t was known that the build
ing was to occupy the greater part OF
block, and that it was to
be the largest affair of the sort in the
country, but the full scope of the
plans was not understood. 1t develops
now, the structure being half finished,
that its cost will be close to n million
dollars, with ornamentation as elabor-
ate as an art museum Four or five
hundred trains day will pass in and
out Of the depot when it is finished.
The first cars will discharge their pas
sengers in it before the lights blaze in
the streets of the city next fall.
There is far greater demand in st.
Louis for expert electricians than can
be filled, and good men of this sort are
almost naming their own salaries. Gas
for lighting, steam for engines, and
horses and cables for street cars are be-
ing abandoned generally, and electric
plants are being put in everywhere.
There are two interesting signs of this
situation. One is the establishment of
night school for mechanical engi-
neers, where they are taught to apply
their knowledge to electric machinery
e tl. ~ 10, Of -
electrical society, composed of cleo
trical inventors and scientists. This
opened it's first meeting the other night
with banquet at which there were
1913 plates.
The passage of the law by the Mis-
souri, Legislature, forbidding betting
in the State on races in other States,
has had a curious result here. st. Louis
has always had one first-class race
track, the one at the fair grounds,
which is under the control of the
Jockey club Under the old condi'
tions, too, there was one other out in
| Forest Park, where amateur trials OF
| speed were had. The new law has
brought into existence three more
tracks, one in the southern part of the
city, where the racing by electric ligh'
was done at night last summer; an
other in East st. Louis, just across the
river; and the third across the river
too, near Madison. The company n
the back of this last enterprise
have built n passenger depot at tn
foot of Olive street, and run train
over the river every afternoon, Will
the racing is going on, at intervals o
half-an-hour. The great races of tn
city out at the fair grounds track talk
place in the spring and fall, and a
soon as they stop these other track
begin their winter racing. On the tw
tracks across the river, of course, th
Missouri law doesn't apply, and tn
book makers swarm there to get bet
on the Eastern races The tracks ar
patronized principally by the st. Loui
people, and so the law accomplishe
nothing but the breaking up of tn
pool-rooms In the business alleys dow
town. This, by the way, was tn
primary object of the Legislators VIII
had it passed.

HE SWALLOWED THE BAIT.
Another Indiana Farmer Ready to BE
Swlndled.

PORTLAND, Ind, Nov. "A bold at
tempt was made yesterday to swindle
Jonas Votaw, wealthy retired farm
or. out of SIS, 900. He was approached
by stranger who claimed to be inter.
ested In q Fort Wayne bank and
wanted to invest some money in land.
He desired to purchase Votaw's farm,
but said that Votaw must produce the
amount above named to show that he
was responsible.
The old man took the bait and went
to the bank after the money, and was
told by the cashier that he could have
it, but he left without getting it. The
cashier thought something was wrong
and notified the police, and they ar
rested the swindler, who had been seen
with Votaw. He refused to give any
name, but when searched clipping
from the Cincinnati Enquirer con-
corning Charles Nipple, alias GLASS
Eyed" Charley Henderson, was found.
T.His buggy was afterward found, and
it contained two tin boxes exactly
alike, which were to be used probably
in getting away with the money. The
man under arrest weighs about two
hundred pounds, has sandy mustache
tinged with gray, gray eyes and wears
black suit. He has confederate,
but he has not yet been arrested. The
oslcers are satisfied they have made a
good catch, but cannot identify their
prisoner, although they think he is
Henderson. noted confidence man.
