A resolve presented in the legislature
Wednesday in favor of Michael Burns of
Augusta, is to reimburse him for dam
age occasioned him by the state and
county authorities for prosecuting the
business of selling liquor in original
packages. 1t is very true that by subse-
auent decisions of the courts Mr.. Burns
was shown to be protected in his original
package business by United States laws,
and the state law under which he was
prosecuted did not apply to him. But If
compensation for his damage is awarded
him, it might with equal right be claim
ed by every man who is in good faith ac-
cused of a crime, and acquitted after a
fair trial. Such recompense is course
of action to which we have not yet come,
and probably never shall, though it has
frequently been urged by ethical writer's
and reformers.

Storms In Virginia and West Vir-
ginia.

HUNTINGTON, w. VA, May IA terrific
storm of wind and rain which has prevailed
for the past Is hours created havoc through.
out this section. Rumors of loss of life can.
not be verified.
Above Catlettsburg a torrent washed out
300 feet of the big pipe line of the Triple State
Gas Company. As a result the residents of
Guyadotte, Huntington, Kenova, Catletis-
burg. Ashland and Ironton and the smaller IN
tervening towns have been without light
Many persons dependent upon gas for cooking
purposes have been compelled to go hungry.
The lightning interfered with the electric
light company. Many of their wires were
down for over II hours. There was no tele.
graphic service out of Huntington, the wires
of all companies being down and nearly every
long distance telephone line also being out OF
commission. This entire section was practi,
cally cut off from the outer world.
The unprecedented rise in the Guyandotte
River-lS feet within II hours-carried out
the immense boom of C. Crane & Co, and be.
tween $4,000 and 100 900 logs went out into
the Ohio River.
Heavy damage to farmers WAS reported
along the small streams. houses, barns, out
houses and livestock being carried away by
the rush of water All communication with
the interior is still cut off, and it will be many
hours before the extent of the loss can be as
certained. Railroads are heavy losers from
landslides.

A PECULIAR ACCIDENT.
Four Men Killed and Ia Severely
Injured by Escaping Gas.

: Four men were killed and fourteen severely
injured, some being manned and dis6gured
for life, and over so men and boys slightly
burned by escaping gas at the Point Breeze
gas works, Philadelphia, Pa, on May IL.
The gas escaped from holder containing y
600, 600 cubic feet, and the vapor came IN
contact with two fire pots used by timers.
The Ledger says:
Nearly 1000, 900 cubic feet of gas forced its
way out Of a,huge iron tank or "holder, took
fire in a manner that will never be really un
derstood, and, thus converted into huge
tongue of living flame, licked fercely and
swiftly over a half niles square area, eonsum-
ing itself as a community became panic
stricken and took to frantic flight. For those
in the path of flame-a path that doubled on
itself, made a thousand detours, took new di-
rections with every puff of air blown by con-
hieting bfeezes-there was no escape. Where
the gas was blown the flame followed. eagerly
and hungriy The winds, blowing from the
Schuylkill River, from the fields and truck
farms 10 the south, down fifty paths created
by the high constructions OF the oil and gas
plants. found a meeting place IN the open
grounds of the latter, and there played fancl-
full, death dealing tricks with the dense, all
but visible flood Of gas that roared its way in
tremendous volume from its burst confines.
The winds rolled the gas into balls, whirled
it into spirals, whipped it into waved banners
and streamers, curled it into wreaths and CIR
cles, waited it high and low; but the fame
followed, took every direction, assumed every
shape, and made its lethal score in fierce
play of elements.

The Later Day Of Alchemy.


William cunger Morgan in HarPer's Magazine.
The chemist examines and scratinizes every
kind Of waste the factory puts out, in search
for something that can be made OF use.
Three fourths Of the prepared paints on the
market today owe their existence wholly or in
part 10 the 5y.products of the petroleum IN
dustry. Carload after carload of dynamite
comes from the glyeerine recovered from the
sweet waters of the eandle.manufacsnrer
and the waste of the soap-maker. The myriads
of buttons used speak of their rise from the
hoofs and horns Of the slaughter house floor
The by-produe;s, having been thus called
to the aid Of the industries, have grown TO
such proportions as to outrank some of the
older interests, and what was formerly waste
is today the staple article produced, the former
manufactured product having become the by.
product. Some are doubtless familiar with
the old method Of burning charcoal" in
which the wood was piled in heaps. covered
with turf, and then set on fire. The smoke
rose lazily week after week, while the pile was
watched day and night lest the FIRE should
break out and consume as well as char.
Finally the mound was torn apart aud the coal
obtained. By this method three. quarters of
the weight Of the wood disappeared An in.
vestigation proved that an amount of fuel gas
equal in weight TO the charcoal produced was
lost, besides about one. per cent. of wood
alcohol and aeetic cold. One per cent. seems
a small fraction, bnf in this instance these
products are of prime Importance. Today the
process is entirely changed The wood is
piled on steel cars and run into huge masonry
chambers heated by furnaces Here few
hours accomplish the work Of the same nun.
Der of weeks in the older process. The char.
coal stays on the cars while the volatile por-
tons pass off. Lime takes the acid out Of the
mixture, the alcohol condenses, and the gas
is piped around TO the furnaces and burned.
Should this gas furnish insufficient fuel. the
charcoal is burned also, and thus one cord of
wood furnishes the means of heating the next
The process then becomes, not one for the
production of charcoal, but for the manufac
ture of wood alcohol and aeetie acid. This
one per cent. of wood alcohol made in the
United States alone in one year is worth 81
900, 900, the acetic acid another million, while
the whole amount of charcoal produced would
sell for less than this last figure.
