FoUR IN THE PLOT


Convict Howson Tells low Eilwood Hoped
to Gain Mis- Freedom.
It now appears that four of tho con-
victs at the State prison In Cranston
were engaged In the plot for breaking
Jail in the carrying out of
which George A. Ellwood lost his
life. Warden Wall, when he heard that
two other convicts left the workshop
without permission at the same time
Ellwood bolted, came to the conclusion
that they were concerned in the plot.
He first tried co get Murphy TO confess
but he stubbornly refused to do %, iu-
sisting that he knew nothing whatever
of any plan to escape.
Then the two short term mon were In
terviswed separately. George Wall was
first put under cross-examiuation.
He stoutly denied that he had any
part in the plot. When the oth,r,
William Howsou, was subjected to fire
of questions he got the impression that
some ono had given the thing away and
proceeded 70 make full confession.
Ellwood, hc said, was the originator
of the scheme which was that
be and Murphy wero to oyerpower
the deputy and the officer on
duty In the corridor. 1t was expected
that when the bolt was made from the
workshop the long roll would be sounded
which would summon all the officers to
the shops With one or two EXCEPTIONS
It Was calculated that by the time tho
guards reached the shops the deputy and
corridor man would be overpowered d and
their keys taken from them. The officers
were then to be made prisoners ia the
yard while E.lwood and his pals made
their way to the main hall where Clerk
Weaver was to be overcome and the main
door opened. To Wall and Howson was
assigned the duty of throwing red pep

Fireproof Paper.

The adaptability Of paper is regarded as
likely to lead to solution Of the problem
of rendering dwellings and business struc-
lures fireproof. The Industrial World says
it is now found that paper can be made
perfectly fireproof while remaining amena-
BILE to the same treatment in the matter
of color, polishing and handling as most
woods. Such q material offers all Of the
advantages as an ideal substance for floors,
and IL can be used equally well for the walls
OF buildings. Besides this, it can be used
in the finish and furniture of houses and
would unquestionably do much to reduce
the peril OF fire, against which insufficient
proyision is w.. too often taken.

1t the bottom in virtue of its greater densi-
ty, for it is we'll known that carbonic acid
gas is twice as heavy as the atmosphere.
Now cover your glass with saucer to pre-
vent the escape of the gas by diffusion in
the air. and wee are ready to execute the
following experiments with soap bubbles:
With the aid of straw split in four for
about couple of inches at its end and
turned back on the body of the straw at
right angles, blow a bubble, which you
ran now let fall in your beaker b of car
bonic acid. just as soon as the bubble be-
gins to feel the cushion of gas, instead Of
falling farther, it will rebound into the
outer air under the action of the elasticity
that countervails its weight, while, on
the other hand, another bubble, placed in
the empty glass A, will sink to the bottom
and remain there.
If you will slowly let your bubble sink
upon the cushion of carbonic acid gas, it
will rest upon it, and you will shortly wit
pess quite curious phenomenon. Your
bubble will grow aud grow in volume most
mysteriously, meanwhile augmenting in
weight and gradually sinking in the glass,

BON of this is because the carbonic acid gas

Tho Shot Process of Drilling.

! In this method of drilling through rock
steel shot are poured inside of the drill
pipe, into ring or channel made in the
rock by few revolutions of the pipe. The
pipe bears on this ring of shot, and when
the pipe is revolved it causes the shot to
revolve also and cut the channel il the
rock deeper. As boring large holes through
hard rock by means of diamonds (Which
hre now costing from three to four times
as much as they did few years ago) is
very expensive work, the new process of
drilling by means Of steel shot will, it is
expected, be used in many cases instead Of
the diamond drill. Popular Science News
reports the putting down Of test boring
