SUGAR CURED LUMBER.
French Process That Ii Said to Re-
sist Ants.

eist Ants.
A new era for American lumber IN
the tropics may develop from the
French process Of treating fresh wood
by means of sugar and heat, which, 1T
is asserted, preserves it and gives the
appearance of age, says a Washington
correspondent Of the New York Trib-
ule.
Consul Atwell, at Roubaix, who sent
to the state department a preliminary
report on the discovery last March,
has now sent supplemental state
nlent, in which he says that specimens
of sugar seasoned wood have been ex-
ported to different tropical countries
for trial, and word now comes from
the Madras presidency that specimens
sent there have resisted successfully
the attacks Of white ants.
This will doubtless bring about
revolution in the export timber trade
to tropical countries, as soft wood
treated by the new process will replace
the expensive teak and eucalyptus that
are known to resist the ravages OF
white ants.

IOWA OPINIONS AND NOTES.

"Shaw's decision to remain in the
cabinet is virtually a withdrawal as a
candidate for president" argues the
Grundy Republican. THE remarks
which Shaw made on the French
treaty finished him with the nation as
a presidential possibility"
The Radcliffe Signal finds "This
fact is significant 1t is evident that
the railroads propose to abandon an
tagonism to measures which they
would naturally fight, in order to CEN
tralize their efforts against the pri-
mary bill. They are willing to allow
the anti-pass bill and all of the other
proposed legislation affecting them go
by the board in order to make cen
ter rush against the line of those who
will fight for the primary measure.
The outcome of the fight for this bill
is going to demonstrate in general
way the extent to which the railroad
influence dominates the coming legis-
lature."
The advice Of the Baxter New Era
is "every Iowa congressman should
line up with the president in his con-
tention for railway rate legislation.

HOW ALMENA GROWS.
Splendid Little Prairie Dog Valley
Town Improves Daily.

Almena, Nov. 1S.-In the matter of
Improvements, what is true of one town
the same can be said of all of them, so
FAR as northwest Kansas is concerned.
And the only exception is, that some of
them have grown faster than others.
In the matter of strife, to see which
town can surpass the other in building
this year, four towns are competing for
supremacy, as follows: Smith Center,
Phillipsburg, Norton and Goodland. In
either of these towns from rs to 100
buildings, both business and residence,
have been built. Some of the smaller
towns are a close second, and one of
these latter is Almena, a Norton cOun-
ty town.
This town now has a population of
quite 700 people. an increase of about
200 in the last three months. 1t is the
only town in Kansas that has ever given
an alfalfa. carnival; they grow SO much
Of this cereal around the place, and in
the valley of the famous Prairie Dog
creek, that her people and surrounding
country donated hundreds of tons to
make this carnival a success. The town
was literally full of alfalfa, and for
days after looked as if it grew on her
streets and sidewalks.
More than twenty new residences have
been completed, at a cost of $500 to S1,500
each, and others would have been built
If laborers. could have been gotten.
The Odd Fellows intend building
hall next year. VIM. Malcolm is con-
temp1ating the erection of stone and
brick hotel
w. T. Hayes, who thought he was cut
out for politician and failed, is now
the land man. He has cast politics
aside, and is making money in real
estate, with some law practice thrown
in. In the last eighteen months this
same Hayes has sold IS farms, a quar-
ter section as high as s., 200 and a half
r.,4-e I7n F07.ni irie Tl0or val
ley and Norton county seems to be
about finished. so to speak, that IS, for
many years big crops have been grown,
and the farmers are making money!
It is said there are about 100000 head
of sheep feeding adjoining the town and
tributary to Almena, all in a. radius of
five miles. Besides, not less than 1000
head of cattle, not to say how many
hogs, for every farmer has car load
and upwards. But little grain is ship
ped from here as most of it is fed to
stock.
The town has laid down more than
three miles of cement sidewalks, in
Guiding one from the business part to
the Rock Island depot, half mile. The
CITY government has also purchased
from the Lincoln land company three
lots which will be utilized for hitch
ing purposes, and soon as completed not
a team will be allowed to be h1tched on
the main business street.
A farm was sold here short time ago
to A man from Nebraska and the deal
vas consuumated after the Nebraskan
saw that Almena was free from joints.
Almena is doing nicely. There is work
for all. Business is well represented in
all lines, not one appears to want to
sell out and leave. and all contented to
let well enough alone. The town has
good schools and churches, and with
thetightening of the lid rowdyism has
gone.

CURIOUS TEST OF COURAGE
A Landowner aTranges to Try His
Gamekeeper.

Copyright, 1905. by Central News and
Press Exchange.l
Paris, Nov. IS.=M. Valy, a land
shooting preserve on his property near
La E'ertesols-Jo ourarre was in search
OF a trustworthy gaInekeeper to watch
it. He was very particular as to the
qualities the gamekeeper should pos
sess. First ana foremost it was es-
sential that he should be a man of
dauntless courage-one who would be a
match for the most daring and IN
scrupulous pOachers. His friends in
Paris recommended to him a retired
policeman. NJ. Vaiy arrived in the
city for the purpose of questioning the
candidate. The latter appeared in his
Sunday clothes and wearing a silk hat
His answers to the questions put to
him appeared satisfactory to NJ. Valy.
Though the policeman declared that
in the course of his service he had
proved his courage on many occa-
sions, yet N. Waly considered that he
himself should have proof of it. He
therefore invited the policeman to go
into the yard, and to keep his hat on
his head. NJ. VaIy then took down
gun from the wall, and opening the
window, fired, the bullet passing
through the mans tall hat. The ex-
policeman never finched. NJ. Valy in
sisted on a second shot. This time,
however, his aim was not perfect or
it might be that the human target did
not remain stationary, for the bullet
lodged in the mans shoulder. The
police are now investigating the ex-
plot of this modern William Tell.

NEGROES ORGANIZE.
Delegates From 40 Texas Counties
Form Law and Order League.


Houston, Tex, Nov. 1S.-As a result
of a series of outrages and murders of
white women in Texas by negroes and
incidental lynchingss the better class of
negroes assembled IN Houston yes
terday and today for the purpose of
inaugurating a movement to suppress
the lawless and vicious members of
the race and assist the white people in
protecting their homes and families.
The movement has been talked of for
several months but only took shape
when the murder of Mrs. A J. Conditt
and her four children aWOke the ad-
jacent country to frenzy and came
near resulting in the lynching of Monk
Gibson, a s year old negro boy sus-
pected of the crimes.
Two hundred negroes, leaders of
their race in Texas and representing 40
counties in the state, assembled In
this city to formulate plans for carry
ing out the idea. At the meeting to-
day it was decided to organize a law
and order league in every county in
the state, members of which 0rganiza-
ton are pledged to assist the white
people in every way in suppressing the
floating and vicious negroes and to
work for the uplifting and education
of the race in general. The whites
were Endorsed as the negroes best
friends and black f1ends were de-
nounced in most emphatic terms. It
is proposed to make the organization
national in character.

CHEsNEY GOES FREE.
After His Arrest Injured Persons De-
cline to Prosecute.

Robert Chesney. a negro, was
arrested last night by officer Hen
bricks. only to find that a complaint
charging the negro with breaking into
a repair building and stealing a guam
tity of wire from the Bell Telephone
company had been withdrawn. Off
GERS of the company decided, after
securing warrant and starting the
police on the case, that they did not
care to prosecute.
The police need all the exercise they
can get. however, as the force has
done very little for several weeks
other than catching pair of pick
pockets and a negro thug who stabbed
his sweetheart. The police got little
encouragement in these cases, the
piekpockets being released and the
case settled with their victim. and
the negro escaping with a light hne.

B. Lindsey of this city. She divides her
Time and attention between trips to
Newport and Bar Harbor and eastern
centers of society and the serious work
of caring for the poor and needy at
nome. Lately she decided to give the
Juvenile court substantial aid.
If we only had an endowment fund"
Judge Lindsey told her when discussing
her philanthropic project, I'VE would
be able to do a great deal more good"
So Mrs. DeMond decided to give the
boys of Denver donation and
she laid aside the stunning gowns that
had been the envy of fashionable wo-
men of Capitol Hin and, arraying her
self in corduroy, hied away to Goldheld,
Nevada, where the gold excitement was
at its height. Mrs. DeMond knows some
thing of mining and what she lacked in
knowledge she made up in zeal for the
boys court of Denver. The great Mont
gomery- -Shoshone mine had Just been
discovered and it was decided by experts
that the ledge ran north and south. Mrs.
DeMond located ground to the west of
the discovery shaft, naming her claims
after the two burros, Kentucky and
Golden Rod that carried her prospect
ing outfit into the desert.
About that time Fred Shaffer, regard
ed as the mining wizard of the west,
had shrewdly decided that the rich ledge
in the camp ran to the west. He offer
ed Mrs. DeMond a small fortune for her
claims and Sne refused. CndiieS f.
SchWab, of the United Steel Corporation,
who was negotiating for the Montgom-
ery-Shoshone mine, had his experts in
vestigate the trend of the ledge and
they reported that it ran into the claims
located by Mrs. DeEfond. Mr.. Shaffer
renewed his negotiations for the claims
and secured them for $25000, on condi-
ton that he act as trustee and pay
yearly into the treasury of the Juvenile
Court association fund at Denver one
fifth of the amount until the sum re-
ceived for the claims was exhausted.
ssMr. Shaffer viii not lack for addi-
tional funds when these are exhausted, !"
said Mrs. DeMond. II know many
wealthy women in various sections of
the country who will follow my example.
