ENGLISH
FORTUNE
Awaiting Heirs Who May Live
In This Town
JAS. WOOD INTERESTED
The Parties Wanted are James
Wood and Son WhoAfe Trac.
ed To Bennington

For some time inquiries have been
going on for information relative to
the location of James Wood who it is
reported is heir to large fortune left
in England some years ago.
According to the statements made
James Wood was former resident Of
Cohoes, engaged in the knitting bust
ness there, came 10 Bennington and
for some time was in the employ of
Charles Cooper. The description of
him as given by the English solicitors
corresponds in every way with Mr.
Wood and one of son is a good de-
scription OF James Wood, now mana
ger of the Squire jewelry store who
by the death of his father is one of the
heirs.
The aid Of Rev DR. johnson of Co.
hoes was finally requested by those
searching for the heirs, and he finally
discovered James Wood jr here and
enlightened him as to the searching.
DIR Johnson and Mr. Wood both feel
that they have found the right heir, and
any one who heard the story as Mr.
Wood gives it would also think and
believe so.
Wr Wood has written to the English
solicitors acquainting them with what
facts he can, but does not think he
will have any reply for month. The
fortune is said to be large one, and
the many friends of Mr. Wood hope
that he will have no difficulty in prov
ing his claim as one of the heirs.

FOUR WERE KILLED
More Particulars Of the Powder Mill Explo.
sion at Schaghticoke.

One OF the most disastrous explos.
ions which has visited the Schaghticoke
Powder company's mills in many wears
occurred Tuesday afternoon shortly
after 2 O'Clock when four men were
killed and two mills were destroyed.
The men killed we're: James White
and Charles Colburn of Hazardville.
Conn.,, and James Sprague and Albert
Bartlett The latter two had only been
in the employ Of the company about a
week.
The victims were at work in the
corning mill and press house when the
explosions occurred and as all we're
killed probably no one will ever know
the exact cause of the fatality.
There were three distinct explosions
with but an interval of few seconds
apart, the third being the explosion of
car load Of powder which was being
taken from the corning mill TO the
press room, short distance away.
The men 10 charge of the car were
blown to atoms. The buildings were
completely demolished and the debris
scattered about the vicinity.
The task was most gruesome one,
as bloody and blackened fragments
were all that could be found OF the
bodies of three of the unfortunates.
The shattered remains we're gently
gathered from among the mass Of bro
ken, twisted timbers and debris and
were later placed in boxes and taken
to undertaking rooms in Schaghticoke.
Two men were killed in the last ex-
plosion of the mills, which occurred
May 10, 1904. AT that time the corn
ing and press mills blew MP. The pow.
der mills were erected in 1913 and are
now the property of the National Pow

For Federal Supervision

Senator w. M. Crane, who succeed
ed the late Senator Hoar, at the last
session Of Congress introduced a bill
providing for government supervision.
1t was passed by the Senate, but
when 1t came up for consideration
at the hands of the Representatives
Delegate Rodey of New Mexico,
smarting under the sting left by the
failure of his statehood plans charged
that the provision in this bill which
planned to locate a leper colony on
some abandoned military reservation
was, in fact, a plan to foist the
"unclean" upon New Mexico, as there
are several abandoned reservations in
that territory.
The bill failed to pass the House.
1t is believed that Senator Crane pro
poses to again introduce this bill ear
ly in the next session. X will be in
troduced in somewhat different man.
ner from the old one. 1t will provide
for "Lepers Home" instead of
"Leprosarium" as this latter term
conveyed the impression that the dis
ease was more prevalent in the Unit
ed States than it really is.
To Search For Cure.
Leprosy was regarded by the Israel
ties as 1ncurable. In fact the records
Of ancient times show the great fear
in which it has always been held.
Medical science has learned little or
nothing regarding leprosy One of
the strongest arguments for the care
Of the ''unclean" is. that such an insti-
tuition would make possible a careful
study Of the disease and, perhaps, in
time result in the discovery of
cure. There is government institu-
ton for the care of lepers in Hawaii,

met officer. Each one has adopted
his own method of Cabinet consulta-
tion. President Roosevelt might be
said to have a Cabinet of specialists.
He has selected men whom he believed
peculiarly fitted to administer the af-
fairs of the different departments. At
the bi-weekly Cabinet meetings, which
are held when the President is in his
executive Office in Washington, each
Cabinet officer presents short re-
sumo of the condition of his depart
ment. If there is any matter that has
arisen under his jurisdiction that is Of
a widespread, general character it is
reserved for discussion by himself and
the President, and perhaps one or two
other members of the Cabinet who re-
main after the formal meeting. Great
questions of national and international
policy are not matters of general dis
cussion in Mr.. Roosevelt's Cabinet.
They are taken up and debated by the
President and those Cabinet officers
whom he believes are specially quail
fed to give expert opinion upon them.
The late President Mckinley had an
entirely different method and the
meetings of his Cabinet were actual
state councils. Every matter affecting
the nation at largo or bearing upon our
international relations was brought up
at these meetings and each one of the
Presidents advisors was requested to
submit his opinion. The Secretary Of
Agriculture was asked for his views
on the advance on Pekin, while the
opinion of the Secretary of State on
the type of battleships to be adopted
by the Navy was welcomed. Mr.. Nc
Kinley believed in this way that he Sc
cured the best results and 1t also gave
his cabinet officers an opportunity to
exhibit whatever of talent or genius
of craftsmanship they possessed.

To Remove a Tight Ring.

A very simple way of removing a
very tight ring from the finger is to
take a piece of small cord or wrapping
thread and push one end of it under
the ring Then, taking hold of the
other end of the string, begin winding
around the finger from close up against
the ring to the very tip of the finger.
Then, to remove the ring, take hold
of the end of the cord that was slipped
under the ring and unwind the cord.
AS the unwinding progresses the ring
will be carried along with Il and re-
moved without difficulty.

ture of oil and diamond dust rubbed
into the edge. The saw rotates at
tremendous speed, being turned by
leather belt running from an engine.
An expert cleayer, if paid so much per
diamond cut could make from SEQ to
$50, and as one cleaver furnishes
work for so or GO shapers, would
quickly work himself out of a job.
Consequently, he prefers to go slowly
and receive a monthly wage Of $12O.
The shapers or "bruteurs" outline
the form in which the diamond will
ultimately appear. In this operation,
the "bruteur" takes two stones of sim
liar size and hardness, fits each into
a metal cap, sets one in machine
that resembles a carpenters lathe, and
as it revolyes the second stone is
pressed against it. The dust caused
by the friction is caught in a tiny box.
fefore the invention Of this machine,
the "bruteur" held the diamonds be-
tween the thumb and foretinger of
each hand and rested the little fingers
on the sides of the tank, which is
made of BRASS In time the constant
pressure on the brass wore the sides
OF the box into grooves, while the

Sherman's Earlier Fame.
Going back a little further we find
the late John Sherman standing as
the monument Of sound finance and
marking the otherwise colorless Hayes
administration from 1877 to 1881 as an
epoch in the financial history Of the
country. In the days of the Civil War;
Stanton, at the head of the War De-
partment, earned the name oil being
the greatest Secretary of War the
United States ever had and was the
mainstay of the immortal Lincoln in
the latter's heartbreaking experiences
with traitors, politicians and self-seek-
ing army officers. The $50 years OF
national life of the United States fur
nished many brilliant examples Of
what Cabinet officer can accomplish
and the influential part he can play in
the achievements of an administration
It depends largely upon the Presi-
dent Of the United States to what ex
tent a Cabinet officer may achieve
prominence in national affairs. Dur
ing the last generation most Of the
Presidents Of the United States have
been men of iron will and command
ing personality. Most of them. how
ever, have depended upon members Of
their Cabinet for expert advice on
great national and international issues. |
In the administration of Grant, Cleve-
land, Harrison, Mckinley and Roose-
welt certain Of their ministers were |
in the direction of affairs |
of state and domestic policies. These |
Presidents were and are strong men,
but ever ready to listen to the advice
and appreciate the craftsmanship of the
strong men they had chosen for their |
Cabinet.
Different Treatment of Cabinets.
Each President has had his own
conception of the functions Of Cab
