IL Is hardly a matter for surprise that. with
SUCH an energetic cooling medium in view,
the problem OF applying liquid air for re-
again.
In the consideration Of the merits Of any
particular source OF cold two points are
essential-irst, the quantity of cold pro-
duced; that Is, the number OF heat units
the Intensity of the cold; that is. the tenn
perature at which heat is removed.
The most important physical law relating
TO the production OF cold is well known as
necessary for a certain amount OF cold In
creases in direct ratio with the difference
between the lower temperature Gin the re-
frigerator) at which the heat is taken away
and the upper temperature Tin the con-
denser or cooler) at which heat is trans
ferred to the cooling water or TO the atmos-
phere. Now, If the refrigerative purpose
be the production or the maintenance OF a
temperature only a few degrees below the
freezing point of water, then. according TO
the law referred to, IL must be exceedingly
irrational to employ liquid air, seeing that
for its attainment we are compelled to de-
scend to -19l degrees c. (53I2 degrees F.
Surprising that any one had TO provide a
well for obtaining surface water from a
depth of ten feet. il would be insane to
sink a shaft down TO 800 feet, TO let the
water run from its surface level down this
pit. and then TO raise il TO a height of 800
feet. But this exactly corresponds to the
idea of persons recommending the use OF
Grating machines OF to-day. If We were to
work our ice factories, our cooling and
freezing stores, and our other cooling plants
by liquir air, the requisite expenditure
would be from thirty TO fifty times greater
than that Of our modern refrigerating in
Stallatione.

Il the Author and Leader
Of the Sect.

CONCORD, N. H. June 7.-Recent claims
that Ralph Waldo Emerson is the author Of
Christian Science has called for the follow
ing statement from Mary Baker G.. Eddy:
ITO Whom it Concerns: / was early the
pupil of Miss Sarah j. Bodwell. the prin-
cipal of Sanbornton Academy, of New

Among my early studies were Comstock's

Journal and for several years was the
proprietor and sole editor of that journal.
In 1893 Judge 8. j. Hanna became editor
of the Christian Science Journal and for
ten subsequent years he knew my ability
as an editor. In his recent lecture at Chi
cago he said Mrs. Eddy is. from every
point of view, a woman of sound education
and liberal culture
"Agassiz, the celebrated naturalist and
author wisely said: Every great scientific

OUT in FORCE
BUNGALOOS ATTACK PEACEABLE NE.
GROES AT RIVERSIDE PARK.
Victims Driven to Haven of Refuge
While Stone Flew Fast-Squad
of Police Sent

The "Bungaloo" gang turned out In full
force last night at Riverside Park, and took
up it's war on the colored race. with the re-
suit that in a very few moments not a negro
could be found within a mile of the prem
Uses. The hoodlums stationed pickets at
the street-car lines and compelled the col
ored people to stay on the cars. and only
the whites were allowed to go unmolested.
The unfortunate negroes who were caught
in the park were forced to seek shelter in
the street cars, and, after once inside, were
pelted with stones and rocks by the bowling
mob of whites on the outside. Several peo-
pie were struck with flying bricks and
stones, and a number of doctors were sum-
moned to the scene. Captain Kruger, of
the city police department, detailed twelve
policemen and four detectives to the park
as soon as he heard of the anair, and the
trouble soon subsidized. No arrests were
made. as none of the miscreants could be
found by the police, as they dispersed as
soon as they found that the police had been
notified.

ia Have Conceded Defeat.

to Have Conceded Defeat.
Special 10 the Indianapolis Journal.
LAFAYETTE, Ind, Jun lone Of the
Duhme attorneys has conceded the defeat
of his side in the Moses Fowler Chase case
and the others probably agree with him. 1t
is generally admitted that the court will in
struct the jurors to return a verdict for the
petitioner. Frederick s.. Chase. and make
the father of young Chase guardian of his
sons person and estate. The Duhme coun-
sci hopes to find an error in the record in
order to reverse the case in a higher court
or secure q new trial.
There was much important testimony at
Fowler yesterday. Addison G.. Harris,
counsel for +. s. Chase, objected to the adj
mission of the record before Judge Taylor
at Lafayette in 1893, but Judge Rabb over
ruled the objection. The defense closed its
evidence-in-chief in the morning and the
is understood that the defense will have
evidence in subrebuttal. Mr.. Kittredge, of
the Duhme side, yesterday presented rec
ords of other court proceedings, pleas in
abatement, ETC., to show that Moses Fowler
Chase had declared himself a resident of
Ohio. One of the pleas in abatement which
was never presented to the court was made
out and sworn to before the clerk of An
droscogging county, Maine, dated July IL,
1899. Judge Kittredge then introduced a
record OF proceedings before Judge Rabb.
WIt fTeQeTlCh CndSe was appointed
guardian of his sons estate in Benton coun-
~, on March 16, 1903. After a long argu-
ment the court sustained the objection to
introducing this record as evidence. Mr..
Kittredge presented the record of the
Hamilton. o., Circuit Court, showing the
appointment OF George Hoadley, jr., as
guardian of Moses Fowler Chase. Mr.. Har-
ris objected, because the appointment was
made on April 26. 1903. while the action filed
on April 20 was still pending in the Tippe-
canoe Circuit Court. The transcript was
excluded. Court dismissed the Jury for five
minutes and then instructed the counsel to
hand written instructions TO the court by
Monday at 2 o'clock. The written motion
for written instructions was later filed by
the Duhme counsel.

ELWOOD. Ind, une 7.-After an investi-
CATION covering five days the Upton county
grand jury adjourned last night without

Hadley, the four men who were arrested
a few days since charged with having muir
dered James Tyner and thrown his body on
the Panhandle tracks at Curtisville, where
ii was decapitated by a switch engine two
weeks ago Saturday night. The grand
jury, in its report, stated that the evidence
against the men was too weak to base the
hope of a conviction on, and recommended
that they be discharged. This course will
doubtless be pursued at the final hearing
this week. The four men were drunk at
the time of the tragedy, and their contra
dictory stories led to their arrest.
