mains assignee he has nothing to do
but look the part. The paper has
recently moved back into its old
quarters and outwardly there is no
change apparent, But the "posses-
sion" has changed, subject to the
other mortgages ana another smpli.
fication Of the intricate processes of
law has been accomplished. The
friends of this new move feel conf.
dent that it has settled the policy for
at least twenty. four hours.

Ingersoll Forfcits Bond.

Ithaca, n. y April 0-Charles
Ingersoli, the deiaulting county
treasurer. under bond Of $40, 900 to ap.
pear in court to-day, has fled. His
pond was surrendered as soon as his
Aight became known, and strenuous
efforts are being made to recapture
him. lngersoll was originally arrest
ed at lola, Kansas.
The above dispatch appeared IN the
Kansas City Journal Tuesday
aud adds another interesting chapter
to the story of Charles IngersolI who
was captured here a few weeks ago
by sheriff Hobart. Ingersoll pretend
ed at the time that he was sorry he
ran away in the first place, and did
80 only because "friendsh suggested
it and he was go cut up about his
shortage that he thoughtessIy fol-
lowed the suggestion. A reward of
$500 was offered for his capture and
the money was paid to the men here
who got him. 1t ie probable that he
was assisted in escaping by his son,
the young man who became rather
Warlike when here.
The only thing to do Is for the
authorities to telegraph for Hobart,
Jones d Co. the expert detectives and
have them run him down again.

Stalking the wild Rat.

The other night Bob Wilhite was
III and his brother George took his
place at the restaurant as night man.
George had been up all day and so he
got terribly tired and sleepy and went
to doing along in the night. A large
rat improved the occasion to help
himself to q free lunch. George heard
him and by a beautiful sneak secured
the target rifle which is kept In the
store. Then he treked around the
shopie and took up commanding
position behind kOpje of baked beans
and began bombarding the rat. The
rat performed some rapid evolutions
and keeping on the run allowed
George to practice ad lib. When the
hospital corps arrived later and in
voiced the loss they found three win
dow panes shot out in the rear of the
building, several holes in the furniture
and one hole cleanly cut through

known. The fighting would still b'
carried on had not copje Brister ar

5000 BARRELS DAILY
lola Portland Cement Company Ser
iously Thinking of Doubling Their
Plant and Output.

Already, before the plant is entirely
finished, 1t is admitted by everyone
who hae seen the works OF the lola
Portland Cement Company that they
are among the largest factories in the
state, but the interesting news now
comes that the plant may be almost
doubled in size. The reason of this is
the very favorable reports made by
the chemists and machinists of the
satisfactory test which the machinery
stood and of the exceptional quality
of the inexhaustible raw material.
The requirement OF abundant gas
land also has had its effect.
Mr.. Oscar Gerlach, the expert
chemist who made the first test, in
his report, speaks very highly of the
chemical properties of the shale and
rock. "I do not believe the favorable
conditions and advantages of the fuel
and exceptional material at the lola
Cement Works can be over esti-
mated" he writes. He also noted
that the test was more satisfactory
than expected, the gas proves an ideal
fuel, reducing the cost aud giving ex-
ceptional hydraulic properties, the
rock is pure, the shale contains the
right proportions of alumIna and ST.
lca, the clay and rock mix perfectly,
the best results are obtained from
5000 to 300 degrees Fahrenheit ahd
the gas gives $500 degrees, the elm
ker is perfect and being brittle grinds
finely. "rhe test settles hey ond all
question that the highest possible
grade OF Portland Cement can be
made at LILA at the lowest posi- BILE
cost" This is what the man who h as
made a special study of the subject
in Eur )pe and America says.
In view of these things, and of the
fact that from here all the south anC
west of the country is easily reached
that the Cement plant is promised
an increased demand rs marked as In
In 1882 the United States used 5000
barrels of American cement and $40,
406 of foreign; in 1890 1886, 500 Ameri
can and 1,940, 1856 of foreign; in 1891
900, 1924 of American and 1907 ,39J
foreign; in 1898 1902, ,284 American
and 2,0lS,8lS foreign; last year 5 146,
064 American and 2,2G0,O foreign.
TO cover the demand here at hom,
now held by foreign manufacturer
it is proposed to increase the outpu
from 800 barrels daily to 5000, o
800 600 barrels year. This wOul,
mean tho increase of the capital stocl
from So 100000 which it is now (,
$4,000, 600 Thus by increasing TIA,
stock 80 ne forty per cent the outpu
will be increased 100 per cent, and t,
consider his important change in th
plans of the company, chang
warmly advocated by some of to
heavy stockholders, II meeting ha
been called for May /, in Detroit I,
