TEMPER COPPER the VERY LATEST.
Il Is Claimed That a Process Has Been Dis
covered Which viii Temper the Metal.

covered Which viii Temper the Metal.
II have discovered how to temper
copper and bring it to any degree OF
hardness" said Robert S. Anderson,
of Seattle, who is now employed at
Venice, in Southern California. He
has number of implements, bells
and tools, he has manufactured out
of copper. Some of the tools are
said to be pure copper, others have
about per cent alloy in them.
"Since the ancient days of Rome
no one has been able to so harden
copper as to make it of use II me
tool and foundry sections of the in
dustrial world until now" cont1n-
ued Mr.. Anderson.
"For more than eight hundred
years my ancestors have been cop
per workers. They were natives OF
Sweden, and as is the custom in that
country, knowledge gained by the
father was handed down to the eld-
est son, until today l am the posses
sor of many volumes of notes made
by them during the years they
passed as copper workers.
when was IS years old began
to experiment. Ny mother, Mrs.
Carrie Renstrom- Plummer, assisted
me in my search after the secret and
my brother George also helped me.
For sixteen years l worked at home,
endeavoring to solve the problem,
but was unsuccessful. Then one
day, at Silverton, Wash, discover
ed that secret. The benefits which
will be derived from the knowledge
will be manifold. The process will
revolutionize the working world.
"You frequently hear men engag-
ed in iron and steel work say there
is scarcity in the worlds supply of
iron. IT this supply should fail,
what metal is there to take its place ?
Nothing but copper, and copper
can be used for everything
that steel is; for making the small
est needle or driving wheels for the
largest locomotives. 1t can be used
to advantage in the commercial
world. 1t il 80 hard and tough that
a hundred pound bell, IS per cent
copper and per cent alloy, dropped
a distance OF 100 feet will not crack
or break, where one made of bell
metal or with more alloys would be
sma shed to pieces.
at is possible to make razors and
knives from the metal, as it can be
hollow ground as easily as steel is
today.
my mother has two patents and
l have had one issued on the discov-
cry, one in 1902, and one in 1903 and
one last September. just what am
going to do with the process do not
know, but l have had several offers
from capitalists who wish to finance
the proposition"
One Of the tools Mr.. Anderson has
IN Venice Ii copper hatchet Wnlch
can be used for any purpose steel
one can be used for. 1t takes an edge
the same as steel Ratchet when put
on grindstone. He also has lath-
ing Ratchet and piston ring which,
when spread. springs in place with
great elasticity, and several copper
bells which give much clearer
and more ringing tone when struck
than the ordinary bell.
Mr.. Anderson was a member of M
Company, First Washington Volun-
teers, in the Spanish-American war,
and served with his regiment in the
campaign in the Philippines.

A BURGLAR
DISGORGES
Part of Stolen Goods on the
Campus of Central School.
Papers and Linen.

This morning the officers we're noti-
fed that some one had during the
night left lot of papers, books, and
other property on the grounds of the
Central school. Investigation showed
that the property had evidently be-
loDged to a conductor running
between Palestine and San Antonio,
and it is supposed some one must
have stolen valise belonging to some
conductor, and after rifiing it, left the
contents not desired on the school
grounds. The things secured this
morning by the officers, and now at
the county jail, consist of pocket
books, such as carried by conductors,
some collars with the initials, w. E.
B. on them, and other smaller articles.
When seen by Herald man the off,
GERS said no report of burglary had
been made to them, and they are at
loss to know where the things came
from or to whom they belong.

walked into a trap at Salmon, this
county, and was shot, says he was in

off and shot him.
Tarkey is resting we'll today, and got
good nights sleep last night, and it
is thought he will be all right within a
few days.
Mr.. Salmon, who conducts a store
at the town by that name, had been
burglarized, and to prevent recur-
renee of the act, had rugged up gun
so that it would shoot to kill any one
who attempted to effect an entrance
into the house. Tsrkey showed up,
and he says that he saw light in the
second story of the building, and hear
ing noise, started to investigate. he
climbed a post and proceeded to break
out window light, and then attempt
ed to open the window, when he heard
another noise that sounded very much
like gun, and he found himself with
a leg full of shot. He was brought to
this city by Deputy Sheriff Hardman,
and locked up, and will be held for
examination.
His wounds are not of a serious
character.

AT UNIVERSITY

very warm. The doors of the COM

and declared the gathering dismissed
but the association refused to leave
the hall and continued the election.
The election was a victory for a
slate made up from half dozen fra
ternties. Following was the result:
Clarke Human, president; r. +
Staubley, vice president; G. Meyer,
secretary; I. +. Hodges, treasurer;
board of directors, DR.. David Holt.

PASSES
ARE CUT
OFF SURE

The issuance Of half-fare permits
to ministers by the Baltimore &
Ohio Railroad Company few days
ago gave rise to the hope that the
order of cutting off passes and free
transportation to others was about
to be revoked, but letter sent 10
the ticket agents dispels that hope.
Official information reaches here
that even newspaper mileage will
not be granted this year. The order
becomes effective February /, al
though it has really been operative
since the first of the year.
1t is to the effect that all such
mileage will be cut off and that a
different arrangement will be made
with the newspapers, by which the
railroad company will pay cash for
all its advertising in the various
newspapers and owners and editors
Of such papers will be expected to
purchase their transportation just
as others do. 'i--
Under such circumstances the
hope is vain on the part Of Others,
and they may as we'll make up their
minds now that they will get no
passes this year.
