Men Who Uttered Tn m Sought
 Safety in Flight.

Marion, Ind. Jan. '1A--Devello Ballard in the receiving barracks at the Marion Soldiers Home today gave voice to an aEchistic sentiments and immediately sought safety In rapid flight, pursued by angry soldiers, indignant because of the wild words nf Ballard.
 T hope every Mckinley monument will be struck by lightning. would like to see monuments to the Chicago anarchists raised everywhere. where there Is a Me Kinley monument. I would rather con. tribute to the support of the families oi the Chicago anarchists than to contribute to 8 memorial for Mckinley"
 These words, in a conversation. resulted in Ballard's hasty departure from tht home. He was closely guarded to the gate by the authorities. but once outside was forced to make a run for his life.
 Many old comrades of Mckinley were among the enraged pursuers. and they were bert on ending Hailard's career. Hs was followed first to the ofilce of the addutant, where he breathiessly pleaded for his papers and for protection. He was given his discharge and a file ot guards Ballard was a member of a company of the 23rd Iowa infantry.

sample of the plant has been anaiyzea by the botanical authorities of Kew oaf- dens. London, and these investigations show that the rubber exists fin the roots in sufficiently large quantities to warrant development. The name of the plant is Londolphia tfrallOnii 1t is to be iounn in many places on the west coast ot AK- rica. One firm which is already engages in the manufacture of this rubber ls plse- ing, 1t upon the market at 7s cents a pound, and it is in every respect equal e the ordinary rubber,
 India rubber has become such an xEAa1s- pensable material in the arts and seIeneea that users will be glad to learn that & fresh source of supply is said to have been found in the white mangrove tree. which grows plentifully in the swampy lands along the coast of Central Queensland. The sap is obtained by making ineisions in the bark of the tree and allowing it ta run into tins. Some samples of the rub- Der thus obtained are said to have brought $1 a pound fin England, An idea of the importance of the rubber trade may be formed from the statement that the United States and England alone abs sorb over 50.000.O00 pounds annually.

 Sam S. Shubert and Nixon and Zimmer- man will present The Jefferson De An gelis Opera Company at the Montgomery Theatre tonight in ''The Toreador." The opera is unquestionably the best medium that Jefferson De Angelis, who is one of the most popular of comic opera come dians. has ever had. It enables him to be seen in character that Is admirably adapted to his quaint style and method and there Is continuous laughter while he is on tho stage. The company is described as exceptionally strong. Edgar Norton. it is said, scores an unmistakabie hit as Sir Archibald. as does Margaret Mckin- ney in her dainty performance of Nancy Staunton. in which it becomes necessary for her to disguise herself as a boy. Edna Bend ia also a bright particular star. Other decided hits are made by John Dudley, wm. Pullman. Norma Bell. Ber- tha Ricci, William BlaisdeIl and Adine Bouvier. The large chorus is seen to splendid advantage as flower girls, brides maids, picadors, matadors and Spanish gentiewomen. The scenic production IS magnificent and the costumes beautiful to behold.

CARS FOR "DEATH VALLEY"
Work of Remarkable Vehicles For California Borax Operators,
Baltimore Sun.

balIlfu0re sun,
 At the foot of East One Hundred and Sixteenth Street. New. York. city. in a modern two-story brick building, the side of which Is washed by the waters of the East River, there is work heinz done the success of which is anxiously awaited in remote Southern California, and which. If attained, is likely to revolutionize (the facts seem to justify the much abused wordl transportation methods in the Far West. An engineering and manufacturing company Is engaged in the work.
 The company has under contract and is now building for the Pacific Coast Borax Company q tractor train. consisting of an engine and seven cars, to be used in tho dreaded Death Valley of Southern California, and with which 1t Is intended to displace 1,20o mules and 20 drivers, at an annual saving of 10o,0oo, and for which a macadam road 100 miles in length is be- ing built through the shifting sands of the terrible. desert through the rocky pass and over the mountain along the sides of which 1t Is to take it's tortuous way. The method of it's accomplishing the task 1t has in hand is most interesting. not only to the automobile industry. but to all students of modern transportation proh- lens. The engine. or movable power plant, has two three-cylinder 75-horse power engine, 10x15. and running at 300 revolutions. These arc directly connected to 1OO-kilowat dynamo. The current Is then transmitted along a coupling tongue to the cars, each of which has two mo- tors, so that while each car drives itself, the power is furnished from a movable instead of & stationary power plant The speed is to be four and a half miles per hour and tho whole train is equipped with air brakes. Each car has carrying ca~ pacity of fifteen tons, weighs 5000 pounds and runs oh steel wheels. The total cost of the train is s30.01o. The method of som trol is simple. the gasoline motor being started by compressed air and the eaec- trio controller and steering wheel being in the protected front of the engine. -ts
 The work is still under way, and should the train be placed in successful opera ton, as it's makers confidently believe 1t will be, 1t is contended that 1t will open an enormous field for this class of busi- ness in the Far West, inasmuch as it Is known that there are large deposits of gold ore which assay in the neighborhood of s ton, but which Is unavailable ow- ing to the prohibitives cost of transporta- tion, which is nearly if not quite equal to its value. With the new system it Is contended that in all ordinary localities the orc can be transported at an average of 50 cents a ton, e5@
 the train will be made in New York city within the next few weeks, carrying about forty tons of pig iron. -
