MYSTERIOUS GHOST
Routs Brave Policemen Out of Their
New Station House.

Weird sounds coming from the dark,
untenanted attic of the building which
for the past two days has been the sta
ton house of the police of the Seventy
sixth precinct, Flushing, l.. l., have
worried almost the entire force under
Captain Wohlfarth's command. Many
of the policemen believe that the place
is inhabited by ghosts. and one asked
and obtained transfer.
Prof. NJ. Kirpal occupied the old Prince
homestead on North Prince street.
Flushing, as music conservatory for
years until last winter, when he moved.
When it was decided to abandon the
old Town Hall and set uD new police
station the North Prince street house
was selected.
Old Flushing residents recalled how
daughter of Gabriel Winters, who built
the house. was found dead in her room
one morning. The mystery of her death
was never cleared.
Wednesday the police moved from the
old quarters to the new. It was raining
hard outside when PatrOIman McKenna
reported to the sergeant at the desk.
Drops of rain found their way through
the rusty tin roof and one of them
made a big splotch on the blotter. Nc
kenna was sent to repair the damage.
I think this place is haunted-hear
those ghosts up there?' said the patrol
man when he returned.
The sergeant listened attentively and
agreed that the sound was peculiar. The
reserves IN the bHcK room were cdlieQ
in. They were instructed to find out
what caused the noises. Armed with
enough ammunition to rout regiment
a platoon of policemen started for the
garrett The sounds ceased. They went
downstairs and reported to the sergeant
that they found nothing but some cob
webs. After they had abandoned the
search the sounds started again. And
so they continue. Some said that they
saw the figure of tall young woman
stalking about. Whenever the noises
began the police went on an investiga-
ting tour. Then the noises ceased Up
to a late hour last night the police did
not succeed in finding the source o. the
sounds.
Patrolman Hanniman succeeded in
getting transferred 10 a Brooklyn pre-

DATE FOR THE SHOW.
Kansas Mid Winter Exposition
Will Be Held Jan. 10 to 81.

1t has been practically settled that the
Topeka Mid-Winter Exposition will be
held from January 10 to 81, 1903. The city
council will be asked to give the exposition
company the use of the Auditorium from
January u to February 4 in order that
plenty of time may be had in placing the
exhibits and at the close of the show, suf-
ficent opportunity given in removing them
On January % the Kities band was to
have played in the Auditorium but in or
der that the Mid-Winter Exposition might
der whose auspices the Kiities were to
have appeared, gratuitcusly had the date
Cancelled, and the musicians will not visit
Topeka. but they won't be missed
At recent meeting of the board of dl-
rectors of the exposition company plans
were considered for the show and it was
agreed that in d general way it should be
conducted on the same lines as that of
last winter In order that the work Of
handling the crowds may be facilitated no
booths will be placed in the central floor
space, but instead will be located entirely
around the outside of the room. BY a re-
adjustment of the aisle space there Will
not be any loss in the number or size OF
the exhibits. In fact the conditions this
year are favorable to show that in every
feature viii surpass that of a year ago.
Manager R. S. Brigham has been much
occupied with other matters for some
weeks, but from now on until the event is
closed he will devote much of his time to
preparations for it, He is in Kansas City
today, in the interests of the show and
Will go to Chicago in few days to look
up attractions similar to the vaudeville
features of last winter, though, as he ex-
poets, much superior to them.

WIDE TIRE WAGONS.
Move Made to Encourage Their Use
in Topeka

At the request and suggestion of the
city engineer it is probable that an or
dinance will be presented to the city
council compelling wagons heavily loaded
to be provided with wide tires, for the
purpose of preserving the pavements from
injuries.
A coal wagon freighted with three or
four tons of coal does great deal of
damage to both brick and asphalt pave
ment unless it has tires from four to six
inches wide. Most cities have ordinances
covering this point, and there is no doubt
that something of the sort should be
adopted by Topeka
The plan is to require tires of varying
width according to the amount of max
imum load which it is proposed to carry
on the wagon. Coal wagons, and wagons
for hauling brick and stone, will be Obliged
to put on wheels which have tires from
four to six inches wide. This provision
of law will not only save the pavements
from injury. but will make easier pulling
for the horses.

USE RIGHT LABELS.
Federal Law Which Is Violated
With Impunity.

Without knowing it. many. n1anufac-
turing establishments in the country,
and in the city Of Topeka, are violating
the United States law regarding labels
and brands on food products. and are
liable to punishment by fine OF from
$500 to s.. COO
The Bird Canning company has been
violating this law without knowing it,
and there are no doubt scores OF can
neries in the country which are IN the
same boat. The law Was approved July
/, 1902, and has been brought to the at
tentiOn OF the manufacturers OF the
state by George S. Sharitt, clerk of the
United States court in this cit1'. The
law is as follows.
mo person or persons, company or
corporation, shall introduce into any
state or territory of the United States
or the District of Columbia FROM any
other state or territory of the United
States or District of Columbia, or sell
In the District of Columbia or in any
territory any dairy or food products
which shall be falsely labeled or brand
ed as to the state or territory in which
they are made produced or grown, or
cause or procure the same to be done by
others.
IF any person or persons violate the
provisions of this ACT, either in person
or through another he shall be guilty
of misdemeanor and shall be punished
by a fine of not les than $500 nor more
than 81 COO, and that the jurisdiction for
the prosecution of said misdemeanor
ed States court in which it is commit
ted
Thousands of dozens of cans of to-
matoes have been sent out by the Bird
Canning company here bearing labels
which stated that the tomatoes inside
of the can were raised and packed at
Kansas City, st. Joseph and other
points. Another Kansas canning com
pany down in the southeast part of the
state does a big business in canned
apples, which it labels as Missouri
apples canned at Higginsvills, Mo.
There are no doubt manufacturers in
other lines which put false labels or
their products for the purpose of Sc :
curing some supposed advantage by
using the name Of a known locality of
production of the article SO labeled.
1t is evident that canneries must for
their own protection refrain from false
ly labelling packages of products in the
future. A man in Missouri might order
a thousand dozen cans of tomatoes from
Topeka, and refuse payment when he
found that they were labeled as having
been canned in Missouri. This form of
blackman would no doubt prove effect
I've in many cases.
The new law will ultimately have
good effect by giving each state credit
Tor the articles which it produces.

are covered with peat, having an average
thickness of six feet. This area and depth
would yield not far from 200. eco 600 tons
Peat is best handled from the bog by a
clam shell digger or dredge. 1t is then con-
veyed to a disinegrator. which separates
all coarse material, such as roots. From
this disinegrator it is conveyed to press.
where it is reduced from so per cent of
water down to 40 per cent After leaving
the press It goes through another disinte-
orator. Here lime is added in way which
have patented. which further effects
drying, and the lime combines with the
water in the peat.
From here the peat is conveyed to Il
drier which is a steel cylinder. varying in
length according to the capacity required

which hot air circulates, thus efsecting
drying down to per cent to 10 per cent.
From here it is conveyed to pug mill, or
mixing mill, where petroleum, in which BIZ
luminous pitch is dissolved. is added. Here
it is thoroughly mixed. Then it is con-
veyed to a large receptacle, from which it
IS discharged to the briquettirg presses.
These briquetting presses are simple me-
chanical devices, which make 9 brick

Bar Harbor, Maine, Oct. 16.-John A.
Dillon, journalist and leading editorial
writer on the New York Evening World,
died at Chetwold, the summer home of
Mr.. Joseph Pulitzer, last night. About
five weeks ago Mr. Dillon. while riding in
company with Mr.. Pulitzer was thrown
from his mount, sustaining injuries which
proved to be the indirect cause of death.
At that time two ribs were broken and
other internal wounds were received.
Pneumonia later set in and this was fol-
lowed by heart affection, making the
patients condition for a long time ex-
looked for but death was not unexpected.
Mr. Pulitzer, who spent much time at the
bedside of Mr. Dillon, feels deeply the loss
of his friend, who had been associated
with him for many years on the St. Louis
Post Dispatch and the New York World.
Mrs. Dillon, her son and daughter, were
present when the end came and they will

born in st. Louis 50 years ago. He was
brought up under the guardianship of his
brOther-in-law, Captain John B. Eads. the
famous engineer, and was educated at the
Christian Brothers college in ST Louis
and at Harvard university. Mr.. Dillon in
1876 founded the St. Louis Post, which
two years later Mr.. Pulitzer bought and
consolidated with the Dispatch Mr.

PEAT AS FUEL.
Digging Up the Boys of Maine al
Substitute for Coal.

short time ago movement was per-
fected in Lewiston, Me, to transform the
enormous deposits of peat known as Far
wells bog in Lewiston suburbs into mer-
chantabe and desirable fuel From advices
at hand it looks as if the proposition were
no vision or at all impracticable, says the
Lewiston Journal.
AS recently as last September Professor
G. NJ. Randall, in q lecture delivered at
Augusta under the auspices OF the Maine
state geographical survey commission.
showed that the next step in economy Is
likely to be the conversion of peat into
merchantabie fuel. A corporation has just
been formed to prosecute fuel composition
from peat The company's officials.
through Professor Randall make the fol-
lowing statement:
I'VE have succeeded in manufacturing a
fuel which for good reasons we call coal,
because it contains the same elements that
coal contains We call it synthetical coal
because it is formed by synthesis This
coal has a heating value slightly superior
to soft coal.
THE first Investigations for determining
the calorihc value of fuel We're made in
1874 for the United States navy. At that
time the Importance of the findings was
not appreciated as much as at present On
economical lines it is not possible to sep
4ratc laboratory science from boiler room
practice. The observing. practical engi-
neer may determine the approximate
amount OF moisture and ash on the CRATES
and the evaporative efficiency of a coal
but different boilers with different drafts
and different methods of stocking produce
different effects with the same coal.
1.-THE question which naturally arises in
connection with the manufacture of fuel
is: Are the constituents sufficiently abun-
dant in distribution to warrant an outlay
of capital for machinery, patents. etc. In
order to reply to this We make reference
to the United States geological survey OF
nearly any year, and to many private sur
veys- It will be found that in every state
in New England there are almost mex
haustible boys eff peat. Possibly there is
no article that has received so little
thought and attention from practical mer
as has this valuable material. For in
