In California, where coal is scarce, it
is found that peach stones are equally
good for fuel and give out more heat
than does coal IN proportion to weight.
Large quantities Of stones taken out Of
the fruit at the canning factories are
now dried and sold. Apricot stones
also burn, but not as well as peach
and do not command as high price.

A LILLE STORY.

For 800 years or mo e, before chairs
were invented, people 1t on three-leg-
sed stools, which, as erybody knows,
are anything but cor Portable. Then
some one with an in entive turn Of
mind, ono day nailed a board to one
side Of the stool anc found that he
could comfortably rest lis back against
it when tired from sto, ping over.
He was so deiehte, with his idea
that he showed il to 1is friends and
neighbors, expecting them TO take it
up and perhaps even thank him for
suggesting it.
Instead, however, tn laughed at
him, and jeered him, nd, as was fire.
quently the case in tho' good old days,
some even thought hin in league with
the evil one.
They wanted no new tangled notions,
thank you; what was the use? Their
fathers and forefathers had used stools
before them, and IL ools were good
enough for the old fo ks, they them
selves were certainly OF above using
them.
Pretty soon, howeve one or the
other got to thinking ne matter over,
tried the new idea, like il and adopted

TO RETURN VERDICT
In WALTER CASE
CoRoNERS' JURY WILL MEET
AGAIN NEXT FRIDAY--VARlOUS
THEORIES CONCERNING WELL
KNOWN CITIZENS DEATH.

The coroners jury to investigate the
death of Isaac w Walter will meet
again June 30 and return verdict. Tbs
jury has not held session for several
weeks.
1t will be remembered that Mr.. Walter
was found lying in a pool of blood with
a bullet hole through his forehead near
his home on Fifty-ninth street In Wood
lawn about month ago. Two pistols
were found near the body, one his own
and another supposed to be the property
of the person who killed him.
Highway robbery was naturally the
first theory advanced at the time as Mr.
Walters watch apd money were gone,
but the coroner's inquiry has developed
facts which have lead Coroner Paris to
the belief that the person who killed Mr..
Walter did not do so with the intention
of robbing him. The robbery, according
to the coroner, was merely to hide the
motive for the deed.
Suicide is one of the theories which
has been advanced and the other IS that
Walter was killed for other purpose
than robbery, and as the result OF a
prearranged plan. This latter theory Is
the one that the coroner thinks Is the
most plausible. There is no evidence
which would lead to the arrest OF any
one for the crime

WOMAN DEFIES LAW.
Mrs. West Relents When City At.
torney Sends Police.

Mrs West. who lives at No. III North
twenty third street, caused quite a little
stir in police circles yesterday morning
when she refused to allow plumbers to
repair ruptnred sewer running through
her yard.
A sanitary sewer leading from the house
next to that of Mrs. West to the alley
runs through her yard. There was a
break in this pipe on her premises, and
when plumbers went to repair the pipe
she ordered them away refusing to al
low them to do the work.
The city sanitary officer was appealed
to. This officer called on the chief of
police and together they called upon the
city attorney for advice. After investi-
eating all the laws and ordinances on
the matter the city attorney decided that
Mrs. West was liable to arrest for vio-
lation of an ordinance against creating a
nuisance.
When informed of this decision by a
policeman Mrs. West relented and allow
ed the plumbers to proceed with the
work.
