MAKING BEET SUGAR
Former AkrOnianS Interested In New
Factory In Colorado.

Writing to Akron friends, Mr.. Sam
uel A. Kennedy, who is now in Denver,
tells of the success Of a large beet su-
gar factory in which former Ohioans
are interested. w. d. Hoover, presi-
dent of the company, was the promoter
of the Western Linoleum Co.. and
sold out to go West for his health.
Louis Wilhelm, another Akron man,
is his able lieutenant, and is superin-
tendent of field work. Hugh Boyle,
formerly of Akron, also, Is with the
company. The factory is at Eaton,
Col. and an Eaton dispatch says:
The new 100000 beet sugar factory
of the Eaton Sugar Company conclud-
ed its third days operation of the
present Campaign" at 7 o'clock this
morning. and the work accomplished
by the big plant more than fulfilled the
most sanguine expectations Of the off,
GERS and stockholders. The entire plant
worked as smoothly as though it had
been in operation for years and there
was not hitch or break during the
u hours. The machinery had been
tested several times before the initial
run was made, but the real test always
comes when actual sugar making be-
gins. Experts who have been at the
factory sfnce It started are hearty In

their praise Of the plant and say u
will prove one of the best In the en-.
tire West.
From o'clock yesterday morning
until z this morning, just 100 tons
Of sugar beets were reduced to sugar
Of the finest quality. The plant has q
daily capacity at present of 600 tons,
but this can be increased with very
little expense to 300 toms should II be
found necessary.
The factory will be in operation
night and day until the season has
closed, and from $50 to 175 men will be
employed. When the factory started
yesterday morning there were 20OO
tons Of beets In the sheds, and today q
long line Of farm wagons loaded with
beets are arriving at the plant from
an directions.
The company has contracted for
5000 acres of beets, which vlIl net
them from 5000 to 10000 tons. The
average price rur beets 10 3d. and the
amount Of money which WIN be dis

"Over Niagara Falls" Rowland and
Clifford's new melodrama with tons of
ponderous scenery, magnificent electri-
cal effects, bewildering mechanism and
superb cast, opens today at the Grand.
The play tells consistent story of
love, hate, avarice and revenge through
which vein of comedy is neatly blend
ed. The characters are strongly drawn
and several of them are original in
their conception. The engagement is
for three days with matinees daily.
''The Scouts Revenge" is a story of
Texas life just after the close of the
Civil War, and one Of absorbing inter-
est. During the play one gets an in
sight into the home life Of the wealthy
Southern gentlemen, as we'll as the
ranchman. One also gains some idea
of the hardships of life on the plains
In the earlier days, but still "The
Scouts Revenge" is not the lurid Texas
melodrama that its title would lead
one to expect At the Grand, matinees
and evenings, Thursday, Friday and
Saturday.

His Wife Did Not Want Him to Be
Burned

"a friend of mine who has been married
only short time has been INVITING his
wife considerably because of a remark she
made the other day when under great ex-
element" said a Washington gentleman
to a Star reporter. The immediate cir
cumstances were somewhat tragic, but since
the end was happy 1 suppose it can be
called comedy.
My friend purchased one of those cabi-
net bath arrangements about a week ago,
and one day this week decided to fix it up
and enjoy its benefits. He got himself fas-
tened into the thing and touched it off but
something must have gone wrong with the
contraption, for no sooner had he gotten
settled than the thing exploded.
His wife. hearing the noise, burst into
the room, and seeing the smoke and flames
to say nothing of the tub. enveloping her
trying to rescue him from his precarious
condition she went over to the wall and be-
gan dealing it sledge- hammer blows with
both fists. With tears streaming from her
eyes she inconsistentiy cried:
Oh. John; get out! What horrible
death! What a horrible death! l wouldn't
mind your dying in natural way, but to
have you burned to death"
My friend finally broke from the burning
cabinet and kicked it out of the window
then going over to his frantic wife, who
was Still landing on the wall like a FitZsim-
mons, he said. with mild sarcasm, My dear,
since you don't object to my dying in a
natural way, I have decided to wait for
another opportunity
She grabbed him up with Shrek of
JOY and decided not to faint. He was burn
ed only slightly, and his wife says she
coesn't care how much he jokes about her
indifference at his dying a natural death
since she still has John alive and WE'LL

Raise Your Salary.
the San Francisco Bulletin,

From the San Francisco Bulletin
Most men who work for a salary cherish
the belief that they are not getting enough
pay to fit either their needs or their deserts.
They delight In whispering confidentially,
over their cigars and whisky, that their
employers are becomina>rich while the real
brains Of the business. the real money
making power in the house, is none other
than their humble selves, poor slaves that
they are, toiling for others gain. AS the
pile of cigar ashes grows and the contents
Of the bottle lessen these oppressed beings
become pathetic In their complainings
They tell Of their employers riding about
in swift, luxurious automobiles while the
unknown underlings to wit, themselves,
struggle along on pittance, lodging bill
collectors. pinched by poverty, unhonored
and unsung. IF we only had twenty or
fifty dollars more each month"; they say,
1--WE could be comfortable"
Any one Of these disconnected gentry can
add from 20 to 80 per cent to his salary
without asking his employers leave All
he need do is cut off his whisky and cigars
and cease feeding his other vices. if he
has any. But none of these gentry ever
thinks Of taking such means to increase his
income. Genius such as his cannot be re-
quired to economize, and 1t seldom does

Comfort of the Mother Tongue.

From the London Outlook.
1t is most pleasant task to acknowledge
the honors which the United States has
rendered to the remains and memory of
Lord Pauncefote. And in this connection it
is remarkable that both nations in recent
years have been singularly happy in their
representatives. In part this may be due
to judicious selection. but undoubtedly it is
true that on one side and the other more
intimate acquaintance begets increased mu-
tual respect The American ambassador
who confessed that the sense of being able
to wander all over England and hear his
own tongue gave him a pride in himself
and country that nothing else could pro-

his amazement at that mighty continent of
North America where he may roam with

Washington's Street Pianos.


Washington is afflicted with a plague of
street organs-loud-toned things mounted
on wheels and operated by a crank and a
man behind the crank. You meet these mu-
sic machines at every corner; rather, they
seem to hunt you up. They are in full ro-
tating order In early morn. at dewy eve
and all through the day. Their repertoire
is chiefly Of the ragtime style; they are
loaded with ragtime arias. At least, this
is true Of Washington unless very recently
there has been reform; and it has been
true Of the national capital time out of
mind.
Sometimes there is real melody in the
barrel organs that are stationed along the
curbs. In instances persons of good musi-
cal taste find themselves quite disposed to
listen to the Keeling off of the set measures
ground out of these instruments. But that
Is hardly the rule; and it is almost never
true of the untuned, blaring boxes of whis-
ties that are trundled about the great cities
it must be that there more of them,
in proportion to population, in Washington
than in any other city on earth. Certainly
that used to be the case.

The Peach Crop.
rom the Philadelphia Press.

From the Philadelphia Press.
Word comes from Georgia that the peach
crop of that state will soon begin to move
northward to the prifit of the growers ard
the delight Of the admirers of that fruit.
The crop will not be so large in the aggre-
gate as has gone from Georgia in some
years past. but in certain neighborhoods
it will be up to the best both in quality and
quantity
The peach crop has come to be like the
wheat CROP in one respect at least. The
harvest of the latter begins in Texas and
moves northward at the estimated rate of
five miles day until it ends in Manitoba.
The peach harvest begins in Georgia in
July and moves gradually toward the north
until it ends in Canada in October. This
gives a season of this delicious fruit of
ten or twelve weeks as compared with the
three or four weeks season that was al
lowed when nearly the whole dependence
was placed on Maryland and Delaware.

Dust-Borne Disease.
From American Medicine.

From American Medicine
In the discussion at the recent congress
of surgeons in Berlin on, the first aid to
the wounded on the battlefield 1t was
brought out by Burns, Bartelsmann and
others that the danger in modern warfare
Is not so much from primary infection by
the small-caliber projectile, Of rapid-fire
rifles as from secondary infection by con-
tamination Of the wound from the cloth
ing or the dust of the battlefield. The eff.
fort Of the field surgeon is, therefore, more
to exclude septic and tetanus germs than
to disinfect the wound. But to come nearer
home, the danger Of dust Is emphasized by
the report that New York city has over $50
street sweepers on the sick list with dis
eases due to the inhalation Of infectious
dust. A number Of affections are so COM
monty conveyed in dust as to merit the
