''Who is the most notorious moonshiner
You have on the records of the Treasury
Department, Col. Colquitt?' 1 asked.
Il don't know replied the chief of the
revenue agents. zone man who has had a
great deal of newspaper notoriety was a
fellow named Redmond who operated in
the South Carolina mountains. He had
been making moonshine whisky and had
had quite a career when q newspaper re-
porter spent a week with him at one of his
stills in the mountains. Redmond had
killed two men, and he claimed to have
done a great deal more. He gave this man
the story of his adventures, and this was
Published in the Charleston newspapers
This seemed to set Redmond crazy. He
committed the most daring acts after that
to get his name in the newspapers He was
finally caught and sent to prison. l do not
know whether he is alive today or not.
The average moonshiner," continued
Col. Colquitt, docs not think his business
Is wrong. He argues that every man has
the right to sell what he makes as long as
he does not steal or trample upon the

To assist the process of fermentation.
methods have been contrived for partly
baking bread in vacuo Bakers, by the
way. use great quantities of egg meats
cried In vacuum pans. The eggs are broken
into the pans, the whites and yolks being
separated. They are then evaporated to
absolute drynsss, after which they are
scraped from the pans and granulated by
grinding. The product looks very much like
sawdust; 1t Is comparatively cheap and will
keep good for many months, taking the
place Of fresh eggs when the latter are
scarce and dear. 1t is prepared on a con-
siderable scale in st. Louis. A similar
process is employed in the manufacture Of
so-called egg albumen, which is said to be
composed largely of the whites Of the eggs
OF wild fowl. 1t looks like a fine quality Of
glue and costs IS cents pound being util-
lied by bakers and for glazing prints.
several processes have been patented for
preserving eggs in their shells by means of
lhe vacuum. One method is to place them
In a chamber. which is then exhausted of
air The air. containing the germs of de-
composition. Is thus drawn out of the eggs
and carbopic acid gas is forced into the re-
ceiver to take the place Of 1t. The eggs are
taken out and covered with a varnish to
prevent the air from getting into them
again. variation on this idea Is to intro
duce into the receiver melted parafine,
Wn1ch nils the pores of the shells.
BY Tar the most useful application of the
vacuum has been for the preservation of
WOOD. scores of patents In this line have
been granted. At Wilmington. n. G.. niles
and railway timbers for the entire south
are impregnated with preventative sub
stances Railway ties are commonly treat
ed IN this manner, while metallic and other
solutions are employed to defend bridges
against the depredations of the devouring
ship-worm or teredo.
Wood Is artificially colored by using the
vacuum TO withdraw its fluid juices, the
place of which is filled with solutions con-
tanning pigments In this manner ordinary
pine may be beautifully stained and made
TO serve as substitute for rare and costly
woods. Lumber is sea soned off-hand by
exhausting the air from 1t, and then fore
ing dry air through the pores, to carry off
Inc moisture. Wood is hardened for all
Sorts OF purposes. from bridge making to
wagon making, by a process called "yul-
canizing"

forests are rapidly disappearing. and the
industries connected with that of lumber

out for years and the members Of the fam
lily all say II works to perfection.
