POLICE COURT

There were three offenders in po-
lice court this morning. Two were
and had been drunk, the other had
some cnternicene warfare in his
huseohold which he endeavored to
settle by force instead of arbitration
-he paid, the Others didn't.
The idea occurs to us, what a glor-
ions thing it would be if some one
could invent some kind of whiskey
that upon taking one drink, the
drinker would feel an irresistible de-
sire to go to work steal over him.
After two drinks he would be at
work. and if he drank enough, ne
would work himself to death. That
would solve the liquor question very
quickly. That crowd of young
loafers, who infest the streets, and
whose chief pursuit is to beg money
from five cents up, of passers by,
would stop drinking. There isn't
one of them that would do a days
work Of any kind if it were offered
one of them capable Of doing days
work Of any kind if it were offered
With these few remarks we Will al
journ this meeting.

The question of clean streets is an eternal one. At Marietta, O., the Wo- mems Reading club, senior, now in its forty-first year, recently held meet ing on civic beauty. Not only was com ment made upon the great improve ment in the business houses on the business streets, but there was mark ed comment on the streets themselves. They were kept clean, and thereby strangers are attracted. Civic progress like all other progress, is not continu- ous, but is marked by two steps ahead and one step back, and at Marietta a backward step was recorded when the beautiful trees around the new court house were cut down. A correspond ent of the Register in commenting up- on the condemnation says, If it adds any force to the condemnation, this writer will take the responsibility of saying that it was a diaboiical public outrage of internal proportions"

One of the most prominent railway men in the country recently said that every dollar invested in private cars paid the companies so investing profit of not less than STA per cent He said that the railway companies were powerless to resist the demands of the owners of private cars. They were always immense concerns which contributed so largely to the traffic of any line on which they were located that a complete withdrawal of their shipments would seriously affect the profits of the railway. They demand that the railways pay them for the use Of their cars and the railway which pays the highest price gets their busi- ness. This, of course, serves the own- CTS of the cars just as well as would rebate on the freight rate. It gives them a lower net rate than any of their competitors and enables them to drive all competitors from the field. And yet the existing law does not touch this form of discrimination because it cannot legally be construed as a re- bate. In so far as the proposed rebate law would go it would do good, but it would not go nearly as far as Presi- dent Roosevelt has insisted that it shall go. And while it is entirely pos sible that the president may be in- duced to accept this as all he can ob- tain, there is not the slightest reason for believing that he has already agreed to do so.

EFFECT OF POWDER ON GUNS.
More Powerful Kinds Damage Ord nance by Erosion or Burning.

More Powerful Kinds Damage Ord
 nance by Erosion or Burning.
 A serious trouble that confronts the modern artillerists is the tendency of the smOkeless powders that are now exclusively used to burn out the inter- for lining of the guns, particularly near the powder chamber. The powder It. self is the cause of more or less an xiety because of its chemical instab.l- ity.. The erosion of burning out of the interior tube of the gun. which is i'll i'm mediate. contact with the powder gases, is due to the high pressure and intense heat of the gases.
 At the instant a charge is fired a great volume of gas is generated. and, being confined in the powder chamber by the projectile. its pressure rises to an enormous amount, which, in the United States guns, is as high as 17 tons to the square inch. This is ac- companied by a proportionate rise Ill the temperature of the gases.
 If it were possible to look into the powder chambers at the instant of dis charge 1t would be found to be at a AdA@hh6 WhitC uCul. ns llt pIUJcCtilC leging to move down the bore of the gun these white-hot gases rush out of the powder chamber and as they stream from the larger chamber into the smaller bore they literally melt the hardened steel surface of the bore. the process being probably assisted ly some chemical reaction not yet thor ozghly understood.
 The gases, under the enormous pres sure. quickly find out the very small est way of escape past the base of the shell, and they stream at an enormous velocity and still at white heat through any such slight opening and melt the hard steel of the guns just as a stream of hot water would cut it's way through block of ice. ssS -ss-
 British artillerists have had great trouble from erosion because of the quality of powder which they use. The powder is known as cordite. and the erosion is the price which the British pay for certain desirable qualities which are absent from other powders that do not cause so much erosion. Cor dite consists of 5S parts of nitro-glyc- erin. 37 parts of gun cotton and five parts vaseline. and it is responsible for the serious eroding effects. Bulk for bulk. the English powder is much more powerful than the United States navy powder-Chicago Chronicle. s''aosfsT

 Albany, N. Y., May 1.--LeKisiattv4 proceedings for the removal of Justice Warren B. Hooker of the Eighth Judi- cial District from the Supreme Court bench of this State are unanimously recommended in the report of the AA. sembly Judiciary Committee to thai House tonight of its investigation ef the charges affecting the Justice. Thx report is signed by eleven of the thir* teen members of the Committees Of the missing two, MT. Perham of New York died in March and Mir. Everett ok New York has not attended the cenn~ mittee's hearings by reason of contin~ ued illness.
 The committee expressed the opinion that the acts of Judge Hooker as bNE forth in the several findings of fact do not constitute cause for Impeachment for the reason that they were not conn mitted in the course of the discharge of his official duty and do not consti- tute cause for his removal under am other section of the Constitution of the State.
 The conclusions reached by the com mittee and upon which these reconl- mendatIons are based are in effect:
 That Hooker and George W. BeaverA both knew the appointment of Frank P. Ball as laborer and clerk in the Fredonia postoffloe defrauded the United States out of $2.532.07 and that Hooker influenced the appointment so that Ball might obtain money with which to pay a note of $5.000 upon which Mrs. Hooker was endorser.
 That number of other acts Of Rockers in conjunction with Beavers in the matter of postofice app0int- ments resulted in defrauding the United States out of various sums of money.
 That the acts of Hooker in connec- tion with procurement of the Judg- ments against the city of Dunlsirk were corrupt and immoral.
 Accompanying these conclusions and recommendations are eight findings of fact. The report was received in the assembly without debate or Opposition an its consideration was made special order for Thursday.

The retail drivers also declared that they would refuse to handle meat if any strike occurred in the stock yards.
 NThe Chicago Team Owners Associa- ton is composed of men who do team ing for many of the large business houses and particularly in the matter of hauling coal. They have fought shy so far in aiding the employers to the extent of making deliveries on their contracts, going to the length of ask ing employers to refrain from request ing them to haul coal or other mer- chandise, and asserting that if their men were stopped while on the streets there was nothing for them to do but to return to the barns.
 The Employers Association this af- ternoon informed the team owners that they must make deliveries at once and continue to make them from this time on. The question of coal was be- coming vital in the struggle and they did not propose to be crippled while contracts existed which entitled them to a full delivery according to their needs. The five largest team owning companies were informed that If coal was not delivered all or their contracts would be cancelled at once and they would not be renewed at any time hereafter, strike or no strike. The team owners agreed to make deliveries as demanded.
