of her parents for her belongings Scott
was shot by Mr.. Dawson.
That Dawson has discovered the
secret of making Damascus steel is not
doubted. A few years ago he erected a
blast furnace in Chicago for expert
ments. He allowed several invited
friends to see all but one portion Of
the process. When the time came for
mixing the secret ingredient with the
melted metal he banished every one.
The finished product he turned out
was harder than ordinary steel, more
plant, susceptible. of a keener edge.
He made some beautiful knife blades
that would bend almost double, and
also a heavy sabre. He fashioned a
cold chisel and tested it beside ordi-
nary chisels on steel Orders. The
Dawson chisel went through the girder
in much less time than ordinary CHS
els. The workmen had to change tools
often in order to get good edges, but
when Dawson had finished the edge on
his chisel it seemed as good as ever.

Hazlng Is always cowardly, because

lawless and brutal because 1t violates

which no man willingly submits so long

hazing Is detestable, and 1t Is particu-
