Why
1.-Because the Quincy having a remova-
BILE, Galvanized Ice Compartment. makes II
the Only CIeanable Refrigerator.
2.-Because the dryness is tested by an hy-
promoter. which is the correct way, prefer
ence is given to the Quincy.
3.-Because experimental tests have proven
that pound of ice viii coel and hold at low
err aud more even temperature more cubic in
chez of space in "Gurneyn than any other
known refrigerator.
A.-Because standard authorities show by
actual tests, that Mineral Wool lwlUn which
the Quincy is packed is the ONLY perfect in
sulator or non-conductor for filling walls.
5-Because test will show THAI the Cur
ney has the freest circulation. There is q
large air space around the ice receptacle, I'M
like all others. giving it about siS zines the
condensing surface of any other refrigerator,
thereby securing an absolutely dry provision

NEW YORK, July 18.--The World to-
day says phosphate trust, EN- mbraclng
more than fifty separate companies, is
being formed. DR.. A. Moses Of this city,
who owns phosphate deposits in the
south, is the protector of the combina-
tion. Several weeks ago he met the own
ers and representatives OF companies at
Baflow, Fla, and laid his plans for con
solidating all interests before them.
There was report that Colonel North 6
English syndicate. which controls the big
Mite beds in South America, was seek
ing to get hold OF che phosphate compa-
nies in this country. but this is pro-
nounced untrue.
Guggcnheimer, Untermeyer and Mar.
shall are counsel for DR.. Moses ana for
some OF the phosphate companies AS we'll,
Samuel Untermeyer said last night:
"The consolidation has not been COM
pleted, but can say that no English
capital has been asked for. The consoli-
dation EN- braces five separate groups OF
phosphate interests: The loan. hard
rock. pebble and low grades found along
tho seacoast. Over fifty companies now
located in Florida. South Carolina and
Tennessee are included in the com mbina-
tion. Overproduction has caused low
prices and denomination Of the business,
and many companies have had to shut
down."

CHICAGO. July l8.-At Jackson park
pavilion last night "boomer bali, and
probably the first one ever given, was the
a.tractioD. The girls IN boomers calmly
forgot the mandate of society that bloom

into the ball room and danced the hours
away without thought OF the poor for

ing about o'clock At $3.50 the soft,
persuasive music OF the waltz began, but
at frst there was just bit OF hesitancy
all around. Every body said to rycody
else: You go. why, you're not afraid?"
and then everybody said to everybody
else: "Of course not. Are yon?" But
Just the same no one started and Hyde
park and Woodlawn held their breaths
and waited in terrible suspense.
And then Miss Minnie Burlett and H.
Montgomery Fuller glided ont under the
full glare OF the calcium lights amidst
laughing applause, and the bloomer girl
had won. Soon forty couples we're on the
floor and the scene was a most animated
one.

three delightful measures with Freddie
Jordan before he discovered tnat Freddie
was base deceiver. The girls were con-
tinuallv finding new delights IN the novel
party and kept the blase youth guessing
as to what they would do next. If the
men would not dance with them they
could dance with themselves, and really
no one knew the difference.

Alonzo F. Myers. who murdered his wife
and then shot himself in the neck at Long
Beach last Wednesday afternoon, died at
2:45 yesterday morning. He in no way ex-
pressed repentance for the horrible crime
he had com mitted. and cursed and swore
almost with his last breath.
The story OF the shooting was related
in yesterdays Herald, and is now con-
filmed in every particular. Myers father
arrived during the night as did Mrs.
Stewart. the mother of the murdered girl.
and her son. They will probably arrange
to remove the bodies to this city some
time today.
The. e.murderer rested uneasily, during
the night. and toward morning his res

the dawn touched the bosom of the
ocean, he passed. away to answer for his
crimeEto higher Judge. During his dy.

porter and gave the following account of
his life. He said that he was born in
Adair county, Mo-. in August, 1875. and
had been in this country eleven years.
He came out here with his parents, who
now reside at The corner of Western ave-

death, the verdict Of death from a woucf
