noDmsK's HOUSE ROBBED.
Detective Bureau Informed of Rob
 bery on Railroad Hill Street.


 Anthony Rodinski's house on Rail- road Hfll street will be the scene Of police operations for the next few days, for on Thanksgiving night or the ensuing morning some ono broke into the house and stole $500 In bills.
 The matter was reported to the police this afternoon by Attorney James M. Lynch, who is counsel Tor the man who lost the money. This man, like Rodinski, Is a Pole, but his name Is not so easy to pronounce and even the directory man seems to have given 1t up, for it is not in his popular volume.
 Thanksgiving morning the man saw that his money, .$500 in bills, was in tin box in his trunk in his room. There was other money in the trunk. a few pounds in English, gol- den sovereigns, half sovereigns and silver. When the man got up in the morning he saw that the money was there. He opened his trunk again at noon and took another look at his hoard. When he returned home that evening he saw the roll of green backs the last time, but he was not then aware that 1t was his last look at it.
 When he awoke Friday morning he was surprised to see his bedroom door open. This was strange pro ceeding, for he always made 1t a point to lock 1t every night upon re- tiring. The first thing that struck him was his money. Was it in the trunk? Hastily he arose, looking to where the trunk usually stood, he was mortified to see 1t had been moved. He bounced upon 1t with the key in his hands to open 1t, but it had already been opened; the lid was just down and the lock broken. The man gave scream which drew the other inmates of the house to his room and by that time he had found that every one of his $500 was gone, tin box and all, but the English coin had not been touched.
 Rodinski declared he knew noth ing about the robbery. but his board- CT was not satisfied with that ex- planation. He charged everybody ir the house with the theft. The house was searched from top to bottom and fruitless search it proved. The man did not go to work Friday or Saturday, but passed the time cry ing over, the loss of his money. Last evening he communicated with Attorney Lynch and this after noon the bureau of detectives was informed of the robbery.

Queer Quests in women's Clubs.

From the Chicago Chronicle.
Probably any one of a majority of men
If told that women's clubs had been SOL
EMMY discussing the character of Mark
Antony would laugh and say: Just like
them" or something nearly equivalent. No
doubt the remark is justified, for, as far
ambitious woman's club is always bent on
"the intellectual" Such clubs appear to
act on the theory that unless the club dis
cusses, or, let us say, talks about, some
subject that IS entirely apart from every
day life ana !s wholly intellectual then
there is no occasion for having any club.
If they are only to discuss what they al
ready know something about or talk over
subjects of commonplace practice then they
might as well stay at home and think about
commonplaces or go to matinee and not
think about anything.
Some men will ask, Why Mark Antony?
Why not Marcus Aurelius Antonius? He
was by far the greater man of the two,
and considering the soil In which he grew
and what he grew to be, he was incaicula-
bly, the more wonderful personality of the
two, nor of these two only but of all Roman
history All that is true, but he did not
number the Egyptian queen among his
friends. And 1t may be of curious interest
to " oman to try to learn why Mary Antony,
one OF the great soldiers of history, ''madly
threw world away for the love of a
woman who, as he knew, had some years
earlier given greater love to the great
Julius, who had been Marks patron, friend
and exemplar, but who did not throw a
world away for any woman. That may be
a reason why the clubs rarely have any
thing to say about julius.

Alcohol From sawdust.
World Magazine.

From the Technical World Magazine.
Prof Alexander Classen of the technical
college at Aix-la-Chapelle, Germany, has
worked out a thoroughly practicable AMI
commercially successful method OF making
alcohol out of sawdust 1t differs from the
process formerly exploited. In that to con-
vert the cellulose into glucose. gaseous
sulphurous acid Is utilized, instead of sui
phuric acid, which 1t is difficult and costly
10 remove remarkable feature OF this
process is the fact that the sawdust afte-
leaving the exhaustion watts can be used
for fuel; for, although its volume constantly
dininishes after each step in the process,
still It's value as fuel remains unchanged,
no component having a fuel value h4ving
been removed. The process Is constantly
being improved, and about twenty-five gal
Ions of absolute alcohol is now obtained
from a long ton of sawdust, or about double
that quantity of crude alcohol. 1t Is nor
necessary to use sawdust; particles of wood
of small size can also be treated econom-
icaily, and as easily as sawdust Prof.
Classen Is working now on plans for plant
on commercial scale.

Diving for sponges.
the Tarpon spr.ags News.

From the Tarpon Sprays News
The practicability CT the method now be-
ing employed extensively in the sponge in
dustry in procuring this product is no
longer In doubt. and a large percentage of
the Tarpon Springs vessels are changing
from the old method Of hooking to the
new one OF diving. In order successfully
to accomplish desired results with the div
ing method 1t was thought necessary to
employ Greeks. who are accustomed to the
work, as it seemed doubtful whether many
OF those who have followed the hooking
process would care to don the helmet and
leaden shoes and pull sponge with from
thirty to sixty feet OF water overhead. But
recent experiments by a few have demon
strated that little practice and confidence,
together with good physical condition, are
all that are needed to become diver. AL
ready a number of our native spongers
have become proficient in this line, and the
probabilities are that in the near future a
large percentage of the catch will be OBJ
tanned In this manner.
