The Farmers and Miners Bank of Ladd,
ILL.,, was held up and robbed yesterday
afternoon of $1,000. The assistant cashier,
]. J. Hurley, was alone in the bank when
two men entered and held him up with a
pair of six-shooters. They tied him hand
and foot and quietly escaped.

There was an increase 10 the
amount OF goods sold by the United
States to China during ten months
OF last year as compared with the
same period OF the preceding year.
OF more than thirty million dollars,
and larger gain as compared with
the same ten months of the year
before. The comparison is made
with ten months because o; the fact
that figures for the full year are not
at hand. 1t is also shown by the
most recent reports that our sales
OF American made goods to japan
have more than doubled during the
past year. And we have been told
that our trade with foreign countries
was in danger, and that some change
was necessary in order to keep uI
with past progress in that direction
That we are everywhere gaining, 10
ratios of two or three hundred pei
cent, even when our sales are com
pared with the best years of the past
may therefore be surprising to many
American readers, but will be non,
the less pleasing.

Through results recently attained
by the Michigan food and dairy de-
partment, produce from this state
has been given a higher grading in
NewYork and othereastern markets
and better prices are being paid for
Michigan produce than under the
grading heretofore given our state
farm and dairy productions. There
has been some comment on the in
creased expense to the state of the
work being done under the auspices
OF the state dairy and food commits
sioner, but the actual result of The
more vigorous and practical work
that department is now doing has
given net gain of many thousand
dollars TO our state IS producers. 1t
is further true that in directions in
which returns in dollars and cents
are not sought, those which have to
do with preventing the sale of i'm
pure and adulterated foods IN
Michigan, the pure food division
as at present organized has accom-
plished more during the past year
than was accomplished through
several years under other auspices.

NEW BUILDING MATERIALS.
Showing Evolution Goes on in Struc-
tural as Well as in Organic
Life.

Much space has been devoted by the
magazines lately to discussion Of the
advantages of concrete in house build
ing. One is told, says Youths Com
panion, that solid and enduring
structure can be made of the material,
including even the floors and roof, for
little more than the cost of wooden
house, and when the annual bill for
repairs is considered. the ultimate cost
Is said to be no greater than wood
The process of construction Is sim
pie. The walls are made by pouring
into a temporary wooden mold a NOR
tar of Portland cement, sand and
crushed stone, inclosing steel rods,
pillars or beams. This system Of con-
struction has been used occasionally
for many years, but it has lately come
into more general favor. There is a
large concrete church in Brooklyn, and
in western as well as in eastern cities
there are tall buildings composed al
most entirely of concrete-indeed,
many steelframe buildings are three
fourths concrete-and many residences

rious parts of this country.
There is evolution in building as
we'll as in organic life. The earliest
Greek architects were limited by the
fact that they did not know how to
build an arch in stone. When the
Romans developed the arch. larger and
more magnificent structures were
reared, but for centuries they were lin
tied in height because of the limitations
of stone.
Fifty years ago building five or six
stories high was unusual, even in the
large cities. Then the elevator was in
vented, and less than 20 years ago the
first steel frame building was erected.
Now a 50story hotel in New York is
planned. 1t may well stand for the ex-
clamation point after ones expression
of wonder at the marvels of modern
building enterprise.

Annex have been finished, and the
completed structure, 10 point of size,

CASE IS DISMISSED
STREET CAR COMPANY WILL PAY
 TAX.
After Conference With Manager RaE- land, City Attorney Drops Proseeu- ton of Traction COrp0Fation
 fer Violation of Ordinance

The case against W. Fl. Rasland, General Manager Of the Montgomery Traction Company. charged with viola tion of the street car advertisement license ordinance, was dismissed in the Recorders Court on motion of City Att torney Mcintyre yesterday.
 Manager Raglond was accused of vto- lating the revenue laws of the city of
 Montgomery, in that the license tax of
 $2 required for street car advertising.
 had not been paid by the Traction Com
 pany. The tax was imposed by an or-
 dinance adopted several years ago by
 the City Council, and early in August
 the Council passed another ordinance
 making the Traction Company liable for the payment of the license.
 The stand taken by MT. Ragland in his conferences with city officials on the subject was that the Traction Com
 pany did not think 1t was incumbent upon them to pay the tax, as the adver- Using space in its cars had been sub- let to an Eastern concern.
 Before the case was called in court this afternoon. the City Attorney and MT. RagIand held a conference which resulted in the dismissal of the case.
 Mr. Ragland agreed to assume respon- sibility for the payment of the license.
