SEARCH is GIVEN UP.
Chief O'COnnOr Is Confident Mingers
Has Committed Suicide,

The search for Henry Mingers, the
murderer of Frank Greipel, has been
practically given up by the police Chief
O'Connor no longer doubts that Mingers
has committed suicide. and that his body
in all probability will be turned up by
the river. A thorough search OF the
country southwest of the city, whore he
was thought to have gone, has been
made. Trains have been carefully
on the lookout, but 10 one answering
Minger's description has been seen. The
fact that he told two people that he
would end his life strengthens the suicide
theory.

WE'RE CUT DOWN.
Alleged Illegal StrinEinx Of Wfres Mt
Congress Hefrhta


Congress Heights.
A contention about the stringing of tele-
phone wires, which arose at Congress
Heights, was settled yesterday, for a time
at least, by the summary cutting down of
the wires by District employees this action
being taken through orders given by Mr.
Allen of the electrical engineering depart
ment Of the District. Several weeks ago
the people of Congress Heights were given
to understand that public telephone would
be established in the building at Congress
Heights known as the waiting station
About the same time the Chesapeake and
Potomac Telephone Company secured a
permit to run wires to and place telephone
in the residence Of Mr.. A. E. Randle at
Congress Heights. This work was done
but no telephone was installed at the sta
tfon
A couple Of days since, 1t is said, Officer
c. F. Osterman, who does duty at Con-
gress Heights, noticed a man preparing to
string wires from the pole adjacent to the
station to the station itself The officer,
finding there was no permit at hand for
quently going to see Mr.. Randle concern
ing the matter, but still no permit was
forthcoming. When Officer Osterman left
the locality after his tour of duty the
wires were, 1t is alleged illegally strung
between the pole and the waiting station
Offlcer Osterman made a prompt report Of
the affair to the police station and the
facts were communicated to Mr. Allen
who inquired into the case on his own &C
count. 1t was stated that the telephone
company knew nothing Of the stringing of
these wires. Mr.. Allen then took the action
down. which they did in the presence of
the officer.

Dennis L. Bohen, the infant child of Mrs.
Mary Bohen, widow, residing at Alb F

about o'clock last night while seated at
the table in the dining room. John Cor
ron, ten years old, was left in charge of
the infant, and the latter, it is believed,
upset an oil lamp during the boys tenn
porary absence from the room. Mrs. Bo-
hens husband died only short time ago,
and since his death she has conducted a
boarding house. Her duties about the
house have been very exacting, and last
night she went out for a ride on one of

babe refused to sleep John put his charge
Ia high chair at the table in the base
ment room and provided, as he thought,
the necessary articles for it's entertain
ment. In order to further satisfy the little
one John went to neighboring store to
purchase some candy. He would probably
have returned to the house in time to have
prevented the fatal accident had he not
accepted invitation to drink a glass of
soda. 1t was while he was at drug store

Most Stupid Bird.



During recent trip through the lower
western section of the country" said a
young man, who has recently returned to
New Orleans, Il b6lieve / discovered the
LATEST and most stupid form of life to be
found anywhere on the globe. 1t was an
aquatic fowl with big, clumsy looking
beak, and with form something like the
dodo, now extinct. / have spent much time
in watching this fowl, which is found in
some Of the shallow lakes, and the chief
point of interest to me was the startling
stupidity displayed. They call them shags.
/ believe. out west. They generally squat
on stumps or logs in the lake and watch
for the smaller fish that play around the
surface of the water. They are fairly
clever in catching what they want, and
they throw out their bill with considerable
precision when they gig for game, But
they never get to eat what they catch until
they have fed at least one and maybe
more than one member of another kind CT
water fowl. Whenever a shag begins to
catch fish long-legged, long -necked water
hen will take place Immediately behind
him. When the shag lands a fish the water
hen simply reaches over and gets it. With
out any show OF resentment, and without
turning around, the shag will continue its
watch for fish, and this is kept up until the
water hen has finished meal. and then, IL
no other enterprising member of the same
tribe comes along, the shay Is permitted
to enjoy the product of its own sleepy
efforts. have on one occasion seen one
shag feed as many as three water hens be-
fore eating single fish, 1t is certainly a
singular display of stupidity. and after hav-
Ing watched the performance number OF
times am convinced that the shag is act
uaily too dull to even know that the water
hen stands behind him to steal the fish out

HOW CHARCOAL is MADE.
Gas and Oil Have Displaced ConI I'm
Many Uses.

| From the Chicago Tribune.
Charcoal burning in the United States,
so far as the product concerns the cities,
gives promise of becoming lost art. Gas
| and gasoline have almost displaced II as a
heat-producing substance. With the thin
ming of the forests, too, the source of sup
ply is cut. Chicago cooks long ago aban-
doned the charcoal stove. The brazier, the
tinsmith and the plumber gave up the use
of the charcoal heater years ago. AS lin-A
ing for refrigerators IT has been declared
to be redundant, for the reason that an air
space is better. Ii has been displaced in
filters. 1t is no longer used in the making
of gunpowder.
Yet in the woods of Michigan, especially
in the vicinity of Travers City, the char
coal burner is a figure In population esti-
mates In Wisconsin, in Ohio and In Penn
sylvania comparatively few of them still
follow the lonely life that is theirs because
of circumstances. They are gypsies Wit.
a purpose. u
Charcoal in its perfect state is bak I'd,
not burnt, wood. Here is the distinction
that keeps the charcoal burner awake
sometimes from forty-eight to sixty hours
at a stretch, especially il he be alone.
For the baking of charcoal the wood is
piled in a circle about central pit, leav-
ing interstices through which the heat
from the fire burning in the center may
circulate to the outer edge of the pile.
tTurf is piled over all until the pile re-
sembles volcano. 1t is the object to
break into a blaze. High winds are trou-
blesome. The sign of trouble in a kiln
is thin, blue smoke that points to fire
in the wood. This fire is put out by
smothering from the outside.
Only experience teaches when the char
coal is sufficiently baked. When that -
period is reached it has lost about three
fourths of it's weight An old observation
is to the effect that ten horses will draw
the wood and three horses draw the char
coal away" The slower the wood has
baked the more substance and weight
there will be in the Goals.
When the pyre has burned sufficiently,
the fire is put out by drenching the heap
with water. Even after hundreds Of gall
Ions have been poured through the heap.>
it may take three days for IL to cool suf-
iciently for the charcoal to be removed.
A good-sized kiln will produce 200 go
bushels of the Goals.
The charcoal burner leads a gypsy life.
His cabin is near by the kilns and in IL is
the picturesque disorder that is natural to
are most in evidence. His bed is wholly
secondary. He eats to live and lives to
work. with only an occasional spree" in
some nearby town. In the woods sobriety
is everything to his craft.
He is a wonder to the visitor, he
plunges into thick smoke and heat and
works in the choking fumes with the forti-
tude of a salamander. When the kiln is
working best the smoke and fumes are
worst, and to keep the kiln so necessitates
the constant attention Of the burner. These
under ordinary circumstances, but the COM
pensating life in the woods seems to make
the charcoal burner a hardy specimen OF
his race.
