some member of her family. She con-

d jury, and that the plaintiff was

grand jury, and that the plaintiff was
discharged.
Baker also claims that shortly be-
fore the trial Of the case at the sugges-
ton of the defendant, McElroy, the
wording of the information was
changed, the words land wheat being
interlined, the original information be-
ing only for the larceny of straw.
The plaintiff denies that he was guilty
of the offense charged, and claims
that the defendant did not believe and
had no right to believe him guilty.
when the warrant was issued, and that
the charge was maliciously made for
the purpose of injuring and disgracing
the plaintiff. For these causes and be-
cause the charge was publicly made,
the plaintiff asks damages for $4,000.
Three Similar Suits.
Three other damage suits for $4,000
each, couched in practically the same
terms as the above, have been filed
against John M. McElroy by James
McCune Ed Ludwick and Charles Gro
ger.
Injunction Is Sued For.
G. S. Moughler of Eldon brings a
suit for an injunction against w. H.
Durham of that place, claiming that
Durham conducts laundry on prop
erty next to that occupied by mill
which he owns and that he is allowing
the soapy and filthy water from the
laundry to flow through tile drain
which throws 1t into a spot from
whence it seeps into a spring on
Moughler's property, which spring fur
nishes The water to run his mill.
The plaintiff also claims that the
| filthy water has become a nuisance.
He prays an injunction restraining the
defendant from allowing this water to
flow through the tile drain mentioned
and also asks judgment for $1,000 for
damage already done him by reason
of loss of time of the mill and other
results caused by the presence of the
soapy and filthy water in the water
which comes from his spring.
James Mccormick Sues.
James Mccormick has filed suit
against the Ottumwa Railway & Light
4 Co. for $1,000 damages. In his peti
4 ton Mccormick states that on July %
he was driving on Court street ant
saw in front of him and coming to
wards him a car belonging to the de
PENDANT company; that he also saw
} that the number of teams standing a
a grocery store near by would make
it impossible for him to pass the cal
on the side Of the track he was on, 81
he started to cross to the other side
He claims that as he attempted tt
cross the track the buggy in which hi
was riding was struck by another ca
belonging to the defendant, which
came up from behind him. By the &C
t cident the plaintiff states he wal
thrown from the buggy, and sustained
severe injuries. Because, as he claims
the accident was caused by the negli
gence Of the defendant company or it
employees, and because, he states, tn
car was running at a rate Of speed II
< excess of that allowed by the city OF
5 dinances, he asks judgment for $1,000

per cent of absorption. 'If purchasers
SO desire the brick can be made abso-
lutely waterproof.
Material Is Abundant
The material used is a crushed granite
. or boulder, which insures the finest
kinds OF sand in their manufacture
Every brick made Is subjected to $50 900
pounds pressure. This in itself ought
TO speak for the solidlty of the brick
The material is absolutely non-de-
structible by the elements, and climatic
changes, no matter how severe, Will not
affect them in any way.
All material for the plant Will be OBJ
tained from points near Los Angeles
The granite deposits have been pre-
empted at com paratively light expense.
Use of Crushed Granite
In explaining the mechanical pro-
cess of making granite pressed brick
Mr. Whelan makes the following de-
tailed statement:
1.-THE crushed granite as 1t comes
from the cruSher Is conveyed by an
elevator into a large stor tge bin Of
special DESIGN and Immediately under
this bin is arranged rotating feeder
which feeds a correctly m assured
amount of granite that is promptly
divided into two parts varying In pro-
portion, the lesser part falling into a
chute that conveys it directly into the
receiving end of the tube mill. The
larger quantity Is conveyed on belt
over the tube mill to the delivery end
where it is discharged into a blade
mixer together with the pulverzed
portion, which with a small percentage
of lime is ground by the pebbles in
passing through.

Whslan, Manager

Los Angeles Will soon have another
extensive and important industry estab-
llsted ON several acres of territory near
Alameda and Fifteenth streets.
The United States Granite Pressed
Erick company is the name of the cor
poration, whose capital stock is
$950,000.
The enterprise will be inaugurated at
the earliest possible date. The initial
capacity of the plant will be 90 900 brick
daily.
NJ. O. Whean, late of Detroit. Mich,
for twenty-seven years a general CON
tract n and manufacturer of brick,
viii be the general manager and super
intendent Of the plant.
Plans of Company
1t is the intention Of the company to
produce plain and ornamental brick,
window sills and caps, keystones, skew
backs, belt courses, bending stones
cornice molds and copings; in fact, all
styles of work now produced either in
cut stones or terra Gotta work.
The cost of production of the crushed
granite pressed brick is nearly one-half
less than the cost of clay brick. In
twenty-four hours the crude material Is
converted INTO brlck ready to be laid III
the wall. Every brick Is uniform In
shape, quality and color. They may
be tinted in every color and nodded In
any form. They lay faster and with
much less mortar because of their true
shape.
One strong feature that will at once
commend the granite pressed brick to
contractors and builders is the fact that
absolutely no cement is used In the
manufacturing process,
This special make of brick has been
adopted by the United States govern
ment in preference to the burned clay
brick that can be obtained for less
money in the same vicinity. These
brick have also been tested in compe-
tition with clay products and have ex-
ceeded all clay brick in crushing and
