AN ARIZONA INVENTOR
A Crushing Mill is Invented
 by Charles Gracev

h . list recently granted patsots. is ono on . crushing mill stamh stem, invented by Charles Gracey of King man, Arizons. The invention is de- signed to prevent tho breaksRs of stamp stems ct their junction with the heads into which they are fixed. The stem is usually tspe.sd st the lower sud aad hts into . correspendingly shaped socket in the stamp head. The constant socket in the stAmps pre- due~> twisting and bending strains which eventually erystslliss and weak ss the stems % that it breaks off ct she junction with the head.
 In this invention the taper of the stamp sssm is made to fit the upper Dart of the chamber in the head for . distance not greater than the diane ter of tine stamp stem, and the lower part is made something smaller % that it does not quite it the bottom of the opening This allows . slight movement either one way or the other whom any sudden wrench or side pres- sure is brought upon the upper ps:t of the stsmP head, and this yielding prsvents the shosk and strain upon the stem wIieh would eventually break 1t.

Frank Brown, charged with larceny,
and John Coyne, sent up from Bidde-
ford for intoxication. escaped from the
Alfred county Jail, Monday. but were
recaptured. The prisoners were pass
ing from the Jail into the workshop,
superintendent Webster being the only
official in charge, when Brown and
Coyne. seeing an open door in the pas
sage, disappeared. Both were brought
before Justice Drew at the Jail office,
Tuesday. and 10 days additional added
to the sentence of each. In the case
of Coyne it is particularly unfortunate,
as the added sentence will compel him
to become an involuntary deserter
from the United States navy. his yes
sci now being stationed at Philadel-
phia and his leave of absence expiring.
