MP PLOT To ESCAPE.
Alcatraz Island Prison Officials Dis
cover Plans.

San Francisco, July 14.-Six men, who
are believed to have been the ringlead-
ers in an attempt to overpower the
guards and escape from the military
prison on Alcatraz island, are confined
IN the dungeon there, pending the re-
suit OF an. investigation which Major
OHara, commandant of the island has
instituted
There are about 500 prisoners on the
island, some of them with records as
desperate men. a number are en-
ployed in road building, and in the
cells Of six, VINO are row in close con-
finement. several crOwbars, picks and
other tools were found concealed a
few days ago.
The officers are at a loss to account
for the manner in which the heavy iron
tools were carried to the cells without
the knowledge of either the guards or
the officers on duty. It is believed that
the plot was discovered just in time
to prevent a serious break for liberty.

STILL IN BAD SHAPE,
Few More Cars Run ON 81. Loui. II ne.
Than Were Run During Last
Week.

s 5E- 2 i
st. Louis, May %. About the
same number of lines operated last
week by the st. Louis Transit COM
pany were running cars Monday and
efforts were being made to put 9TH
ers IN shape to resume. A conserv-
alive estimate places the number of
cars running over these lines at about
200, compared with 800 in operation
under normal conditions.
Repair crews were sent out early
over the Easton avenue. Vandeven-
ter avenue, Bellefontaine and other
lines to remove debris from the
tracks and replace trolley wires and
poles where they had been taken
down and carried away by strike sym
pathizers. This work of obstruction
and destruction is very great and has
resulted in tying up the lines men
toned.
The influx of nonunion men from
other cities to take the places OF
striking street car motormen and con-
ductors continues. AS they arrive in
the union station these men are met
by committees of strikers, who use
their persuasive powers to get the
men to return home Some success
attends these efforts. .

WHY CANDY IS INJURIOUS.
Harm IL Done to the Teeth by Con.
slant Munching of
Sweets.

A taste for sweets is supposed to be
the cause of all troubles with the teeth
which are so common to the children
of to-day, but few stop to consider that
this taste may be easily satisfied with
out forming the injurious habit of
constantly munching candy, says the
New York News.
american children eat such inordi-
nate quantities of confectionery that
it seems a hopeless matter to attempt
to check the habit" said an excellent
dentist recently, who has had album
dant opportunity to study its results,
and he should have added that it is not
so much the quantity of the candy, but
the manner of eating it, that does
harm.
If a child would eat candy once a
day and then wash out his mouth thor
oughly he might keep up the practice
for so years without harm to his teeth,
but it is the constant sucking of candy,
always having something sweet in the
mouth, that eats away the enamel and
reaps mighty harvests for the dentists.
If a child must have bonbons. the
mother should see herself that he
brushes his teeth after the sweet is
disposed of, and she should absolutely
prohibit the injurious habit of MUNICH
ing candy all day long.

ORDERED TO TAKE CHARGE.
Quarantine Omcer at San francisco
to Direct Measures for Stamp
ing Ont BubOnfc Plague.

San francisco, May %. The fed
eral authorities at Washington have
instructed DR.. Kinyoun, quarantine
officer at this port, to take charge of
measures to suppress the bubonic
plague, which the local board of
health has declared exists here.
What action DR.. Kinyoun will take
has not yet been announced. The ac-
ton Of the Washington officials is
thought to be due not to the serious
ness of the situation, but to the ina
bility of the San Francisco author
tiles to compel the Chinese and Jap
anese to take precautionary measures
against the spread of the plague if it
still exists here. The embargo on
the departure of the Chinese from the
city unless they can show certificates
of incubation is still in force. Bust.
ness in China town is almost at stand
still.
The merchants have closed their
stores and the Chinese remain within
doors. The Chinese insist that the
plague does not exist among them,
and there is no necessity for inocula-
ton. They will not submit to it,
and it will have to be done by force
If at all.

To Patch Wall Paper.

A paper hanger furnishes useful
hint of the expert way to patch wall
paper. Never cut the paper for the
patch, for then it is sure to show where
. it is joined. After the paste has been
applied tear the paper, pulling it away
from under the right side. This leaves
the paper thin at the edge, and all the
color on top, and when smoothly
pasted over the break or DETACHMENT
the joining will not show. If the paper
is torn before the paste is applied, the
edge, being thin, gets too wet from the
paste, and is apt to rub off on the wall,
leaving streak. If the paper which
it is desired to patch has become faded,
put the new paper in the strong sun
light for day or two, to tone down it's
colors.-N. y. Post.

For Impractical purposes, says Prof.

survey, ship weighs exactly as much
as the quantity Of water it displaces.
#, however, one is very particular, i.
should be taken into account that that
portion of a ship which is in the air
is buoyed up by the air, and therefore
the ship weighs a little more than the
amount Of water displaced BY it.
