ICE B CENTS 4 TON,
Mr. Parshall Says His New Machine
 Will Maks IL.

What God Almighty does forty miles above our heads, do. mechan ically on the surface of the earth" ;"
 In this concise and picturesque phrase Charles H. Parshall, of New York, explains the operation of his ice making and refrigerating ma chlne. Every body with tbe least Knowledge of physics is aware that the upper regions of the air are in tensely, almost uuimaginabIY cold Nothing human could live up there, even if the air were dense enough to vitalize the blood.
 The principle of Mir. Parshall's machine is easy to anderst stand. Water to be frozen is put into metal receptacles of tue shape generally . used in making artificial ice. These receptacles are put into ar air tight chest. Through pipe with an ppening near the top of the chest the air pumped into cylinder called a compressor, where it loses some of it's heat and is compressed to two admospheres-thirty pounds to the square inch. In a second cylinder-a cooler. the inventor has ramed it-the temperature of the oirir fnrthor ro6uced
 Then 1t is expanded below an at mosphere, al. the moisture is taken from it, and it re enters the chest where the water is, at tempera- ture of from 100 degrees to 160 de grees below zero, F. The same ar is used over and over irdefiniteIy. It enters the chest at the bottom. h few minutes, the exact time de pending on the size of the machine, the water is frozen solid.
 MT. Parshal worked for many years On his machine before all the mechanical difficulties were over ~aome. A man of less determination would have abandoned the task, but he stuck to it until success reward ed him. He says he can make ice for B cents ton. No chemicals are used at any stage of the manu facture. Mir. Parshall has frozen mercury uutil it was as hard as rock.
 The navy department is expert menting with a Parshall machine with a view to using it in cooling the magazines of men of war.-Na- tiopal Advertiser

BRECKENRIDGE LOT.
A Fort smithian Calls on Him in
 His Tent.

Bud Weldon came in from the Territory this morning and says that the Dawes Commission Is hav- ing a delightful time enrolling the Gherokees.
 "fbose fellows said Bud "are having ioIly good time. They are now about a mile and half out of Stlllwell and near Bill Gott's spring. They move in style. They have one very large tent in which they trans act their business. Then there is a kitchen tent, dining tent, and eight smaller tents in a row, giving the place the appearance of an er- eampment. From the center of the place there rises a flag staff from
 the top of which there floats the American flag There are two cooks and # the tables are not sup piled with everything wanted, it is not within reach. I saw Gliftoa R. Breekinridge there, and had quite a little chat with him. I looked into his tent and I wondered how the former minister to Russia felt, when stretched out on cot. ] did not see any eanopies about and 1 came to the conclusion that the big bugs were putting up with what generally falls to the poor man in the way of comforts, outside of eaG- ing. You know John Sharon, don't you2 On, yes you do? Why he is all old Fort Smith boy and thought everybody knew him. Anyhow be is the purchasing agent for the com mission. He sees to it that the table is supplied with everything that is get-at able, and if there is a tender chicken in the neighbor hood he knows where to fnC it. The commission has private car side tracked and next week will camp at Bunch and after that at Muldrow. Up to last Saturday night sixteen hundred people had been enrolled, 25 rejected and 50 placed on the doubtful list to be- given further consideration. Some of those relected shared in the big payment made some time ago and they can't understand why they got the chilly smile from the commis sion. Yes. 1 asked Breckinridge about the effort made to prevent his appointment but he didn't ap. pear to be disposed to talk much on that subject. He appeared to be glad he was there. l asked how it.came that the president appoint ed Democrat and his reply was that the commission had been created by the Democrats and as a Democrat had resigned. ard nothing to be made politically by the ap- pointment of Republican,, the president had appointed him in return probably for the courtesy shown in the beginning by the ap continent of Republicans on the commission. There are about twenty-five in the party and that incl ddes members of the commits sion, clerks, interpreters, cooks aud others of that like, and sumner outing taking the Indian census must be delightful affair.

.LAWLESS CROWDS PARADED THE STREETS OF THE CRESCENT CITY
 YESTERDAY MORE TROUBLE EXPECTED
Two Policemen We're Murdered and Caused Blood to
 Flow.

NEW ORLEANS, July 25.-There may be serious trouble in this city before morning. Several suspects arrested in the suburbs proved not to be Robert Charles and the police have been unable to find any trace of the negro who murdered Capt. Day and Police Officer Lamb. A quiet tip was gotten out for mass meeting at Lee Circle, and while there were no leaders or prominent citizens in tae crowd it swelled to several thousand people who began march to the sceoe of the crime, attacking all the negroes who could be found A number were fired apon= and several are reported wounded. Chief Caster and every available policeman as well as q company of militia hastened to the vicinity and succeeded in preventing a general riot, though it could not suppress =1awlessness, and at. 10 o'clock be mob changed it's course ard began march on the parish prison, with the avoRed intention of lyoehing the negro Pierce, who was with Charles On Monday night and shot Officer Mora, which pre- ceded the assassination resulting from the pursuit of Charles. who esca ped at the time. The prison is well entrenehed and an attack will mean considerable bloodshed.
 The mob reached tue parish pris- on aud found the police ready. It satis fled itself by shooting into street cars, wounding number of people, white as well as black, a. though the wounding of whites was accldeAtal.5
 Several shops were broken into, but it is expected that there will be no more trouble tonight, although thousa4ds of men are gathered around the prison. The police board tonight offered reward of $100 for the body of Charles, dead or alive. 1t also determined to in~ vestigate the police who were with Capt. Day, pubic sentiment aceus- ing them of cowardice ia seeking a hiding place during the assassina- tion.
 The mob has left the vicinity of the parish prison and gone up town, where it will doubtless d,sperse. It was composed largely of boys from 15 to IS years of age. Two negroes are known to have been killed dur ing the mob's march. One was murdered in the Tenderloin section after pulling a pistol to defend him self. So far four negroes, badly beaten up, have arrived at the hos pitals. No names yet obtainable of the wounded whites.
 Acting Mayor Mehe has issued a proclamation calling upon all good citizens to aid the authorities in preserving the peace and let justice take it's course.
 The wounded are as follows:
 Charles Moyle, white, a laborer, above knee.
 John Deeds, white, aged B, both hands.
 Isaac McMahon, white, aged 15, in the thigh.
 Both men were wounded by shots from a mob which fired tt a negro on the market
 The negroes shot during the night were Alex Ruffn, George Morris, T. N. Sanders and Daniel

Australians First Governor General.

From Leslie's Weekly.
Wars and general elections in Great Brit
ain have diverted attention from an i'm
portant event. the departure of the hand
some young Earl of Hopetoun to become
the first governor general of the newly con-
stituted Australian commonwealth. For
about all practical purposes he becomes the
first king of a country only half a million
square miles smaller than the United
States, and having a population less than
half a million smaller than that of the Do
mlnion of Canada. He will appoint the
cabinet. call and prorogue parliament and
sign or veto bills, drawing therefor a SAL
airy of $4,000 a year. They are highly in
dependent and democratic out in Australia
ana Will stand no nonsense. but luckily the
Earl OF Hopetoun Is a tactful a s he is rich
and good-looking. Many American social
aspirants have come in contact with him.
Tor he was the queens lord chamberlain
until she gave hum the present APPOINT
ment, and In that former capacity he had
to say who should and who should not be
presented at her majesty's drawing room
he was very strict, and many are the am
bilious folk from whom he has withheld
the light of the queens countenance.

Joseph Houston of Dedham, Mass, farms
for living in order that he may hunt
'COons when he really ought to be asleep. In
the last fifty years Mr.. Houston says that
he has killed and skinned round 5000 of
these animals and that he enjoys the sport
as much now as he ever did in his life.
In one night long ago Mr.. Houston killed
twenty-one 'coons, taking nineteen of them
from one hollow tree, into which they had
taken refuge from the dogs. He hunts in
the forest which struggles down from Block
mountains and the profits of the hunts are
no mean addition to his farm proceeds He
finds most of the sport of the hunt in the
mixup which follows when the coon falls
among the dogs.
Keeping raccoons for fighting dogs has
long been one of the fads of that section of
New England. Mr.. Houston has succeeded
in breeding the little animals. and one of
the red letter days Of his existence is that
on which he drops a coon into a hole, out
OF which only its nose sticks and bets on it's
ability to stand off any and all dog corners
One of these animals has whipped every
dog he met. killed four of them, and re-

Dogs in the German Army.


The dog seems Desired to play an i'm
nortant part in future warfare. The Ger
man army is now provided with large
number Of four-footed soldiers. The greatest
pains are taken to train the animals, and
its usefulness was quite established at last
wears maneuvers near Coblentz. 1t is en-
ployed in three ways. Its intelligence and
keen scent are utilized for discovering
wounded men. The st. Bernard would nat
urally be chosen for Samaritan duties of
this kind, but the object is to choose
smaller dogs which are less likely to be
shot.
During the maneuvers 200 soldiers were
ordered to fall wounded in different parts
of the forest. Five hundred ambulance or
derl!es were instructed to find them. Twelve
escaped their search, but these were all
scented out by four dogs. which. on repe-
tition of the experiment. saved eighteen
who would otherwise have had no help
The dogs are provided with a little box full
of refreshments and a packet of bandages
They are trained to wait till the wounded
man has used these, and if he is too i'll to do
so to run back and fetch an ambulance
