TACOMA PREACHER MISSING
and That Was the Last Seen of

The family and friends Of Rev.
Thomas Sullivan, the pastor of the
Celter Street Congregational mis-
sion, who disappeared from home
last "Wednesday are greatly eXer-
cised over his continued absence.
ana every effor. to locate him has
failed, says the Tacoma News. He
left home with the ostensible pur-
pose attending to some business
affairs in Seattle. but it is known
that he did 10c make the expected
call there. though he left Tacoma by
boat.
Mr.. Sullivan is said 20 have acted
strangely Of late and had difficulty
in remembering the day Of the week
and the month. Over two years ago
he disappeared in a similar manner
from his home in Chicago and nis
family did not learn Of his presence
in Tacoma for nine months, when
they Joined him here. For some
time he was employed as janitor In
the First Congregations church and
was then given charge of the Center
Street mission, where he has worked
faithfully and with success. L is
thought probable that he took a boat
from Seattle for Alaska.
No word was received from Mr..
Sullivan by his friends today and
his wife is seriously i'll as a result
of his prolonged absence. The miss
ing man is about feet 6 inches tall
and wears a dark mustacne. When
he left home he had on a dark suit
Of clothes and a black fedora hat
Mr. Sullivan was at one time prom
inent in the work Of the church. He
was connected with the editorial
staff Of the Rams Horn, and was
manager of a large printing firm in
Chicago.
Besides being in charge Of the
Center Street mission, Mr.. Sullivan
was pastor of the Congregational
church at Spanaway.

process Of making sugar from beets
requires about thirty-six hours.
American sugar is put up in sacks
weighing 100 pounds. All the output
of the factories now in operation is
contracted before the run is made.
There is no peddling it about from
store to store. 1t finds a market in
every home where pure sugar is de-
sired. Some notice that the beet
sugar is not rich in saccharine as
the cane sugar. Others have object

Largest in the World.
The largest beet sugar factory in
the world is own by the Claus
Spreckles company in the Salinas
valley Of California The factory is
$50 feet long, 1872 feet wide. five
stories in height and contains $500
tens Of steel. Over 100000 brick
were used in its construction. 1t
cost S2500,000. The boiler house
contains twenty-fOur enormous boil
ers. weighing 1000 each. The facto-
~ consumes the product Of 10000
acres planted to beets. The factory
is kept running about four months
during which it produces approx
mately 10000 tons of sugar.
The possibilities Of sugar produc-
ton in the United States have not
been approached. Several hundred
factories may be built and many
thousands CT acres of lan1 planted
10 beets and the home demand will
not be supplied. An ordinary fac
tory furnishes work for 1000 men,
women and children and thus builds
up city around the sugar plant.
The irrigated districts OF the west
seem particularly adapted to beet
growing. We may, therefore, expect
that within a few years the state of
Washington will have several fine
sugar factories in operation.

What should | know about law? |
an the average individual, neither or

nor sage. During my business life
have occasionally consulted a lawyer,
havo had several lawsuits, and have

A lawyer once told me that when
he was studying in an office for admiS-
sion to the bar, he thought of writing
an essay on Popular Misconceptions
of Law" and asked the advice of his
prcceptor about it, who said: Young
man, you better write an article on

Tho students ready response was: 81

A Lawyers knowledge.
Some people believe lawyer should
know everything. and when they dis
cover their lawyer does not, begin to
look for another one. Such persons
usually have as many lawyers as they
have legal propositions lodged in their
brains. Whenever the lawyer fails, so
does their faith. They seem never to
come to the conclusion that a lawyer
should not be expected to know it all
any more than any other person in his
particular calling or business.
Although lawyer should not be
expected to know everything he should
tie expected and should know those
things which will fulfill the purposes
for which he is sought to be used by
his clients. A legal author we'll says:
An attorney agrees that he possesses
at least the average degree of skill and

he further said: These courts of
