CHEAPER LIQUID AIR.

Reduced cost of liquid-air produc- ton is indicated by an article in the London Times. Recent experiments in England of an invention by Mir. Knudsen. Dane. furnished liquid air at one-sixth of the present market price, and give promise of an ultimate low price of fraction over two cents per gallon. The result is secured by purely mechanical means. without su atom of added chemicals. Atmospher- ic air Is first purified and then com pressed by stages to 2.500 pounds to the square inch. It is finally reduced to 125 pounds to tho square inch, which then cools and liquefies the nigh-pressure air.
 The oxygen gas produced by separ- adng the nitrogen from the liquid air is claimed to be purer than by the old method. and can be supplied In the liquid as well as the gaseous form. One gallon of liquid air equals approx imateiy Iss cubic feet of oxygen gas. which retaiis at six cents per cubic foot The new price Is one cent Liquid air has been successfully used ia coal mines as an explosive. being quite safe where fire damp and other explosive gases erist Liquid oxygen is also used for welding steel pipes. boiler shells. and plates for shipbuild- ing instead of rivetfaE.

 Being Made bv Dr. Horter and
 His New Method
 Dr Horter has built up very large practice in Waterbury. ,Evufy one pfaises his skill and marveis at his success, who have had his treatment. He makes no prepos- terous claims, but shows the results. Catarrh is his great speciality. He cures even very bad cases that have been given up. Many people think they have deafness when 1t is only stopping up of the ears with ca tarrh. Many people are running down into consumptive's grave when the treatment of catarrh is all they need.
 Nine out of ten people who have stomach. liver and bowel troubles have only internal catarrh. and near ly every case of kidney disease is ca tarrhal. Most cases of female weak ness is due to catarrh of the pelvis and can be cured thoroughly.
 Dr Horter understands catarrh. He has made special life study of it in this country and in Europe. That Is why he cures when others do not know how to cure in this climate. Dr Horter knows how. You may consult him any day at his office 377 West Main street. near Willow street Every kind of chronic disease cured including skin and scalp affections, nose. eye and ear trouble. diseases of the heart. liver lungs. kidney, bladder, etc. Female diseases, nervous and blood disorders. etc.

THE NINETY AND NINE.

One of the most perplexing prOb- lems that confronts the management of modern stage production is the
 selection of child artists when the playwright insists on supplying the drama with one. The story of
 Ninety and Nine" which is the att traction at Polls Thursday afternoon
 and evening, hinges on the word of a transplanted gamin of New York's East Side district, and the character,
 because of the contrast to the simple
 country folks amid whom the waif has fallen, stands out as one of the
 most difficult of the piece and to se-
 cure youngster who could handle 1t
 in keeping with the show was task
 of no mean proportion. Out of long
 list of applicants but one qualified, and he has been one of the hits of the piece since it's run in New York last
 season. Master Pincus is his name, and he comes from long list of play folks whose names have held honor- able places In the history of stage

NOLAW FOR THIS CRIME
Court Unable to Punish Fiend Who At
tempted to Drag Daughters Body
From Coffin and Throw It Thru
Window.

New York, July 24.-Charged with
removing the body Of his daughter
from its coffin, and attempting to
throw it out Of the window. Charles
Anderson, was called an 'inhuinan
monster by the magistrate in the
police court yesterday.
'My only regret" said the magis-
trate, sis there is no adequate punish
ment for the crime. Civilization has
never dreamed of such an outrage
against decency, and the statutes pro-
vide no penalty in keeping with the
malignity and horror of your act.''
Witnesses said Anderson went to the
home OF his wife Sunday, when the
funeral was being arranged, drove his
wife and other mourners out OF, the
place, and then deliberately tried to
throw the body of his daughter out of
window. He was sent to the work.

,pHoNE TAX RAISED.
Executive Council Increases Tax or
the Toll Lines.

Executive Council Increases Tax on
the Toll Lines.
Des Moines, July 24.-The state ex-
ecutive council has completed the as
sessment Of the telephone and tele-
| graph lines Of the state. There were
considerable increases in numerous
| Instances. the most conspicuous being
! the increase of the Iowa Telephone
company's lines.
/ The former is the Bell company's 5
| property and the latter is supposed to
| be owned by the same concern. The
latter is the long distance line which
| crosses the state few miles south
o. Des Moines and has branches in
about half the counties.
! The assessment of the long distance
line was increased from 5000 to $3.50 a
mile and the mileage is SSS. This
MADE a net increase of $71,O4O. The
increase on the Iowa Telephone COM
pany's property alone was S4l,o00.
Secretary Dawson of the executive
council has completed the compilation
of figures showing the tax levies in
the different counties in Iowa. The
average is 41.9 miles. This is an in
crease Of 1.9 mills as compared with
last year and the year before, when
the average was about 40 mills.
This levy is computable on the tax
able value of the property of the state.
For instance, in the case of the rail-
roads, the actual valuation Is more
than 1922, 100000; the assessed or tax
able value is above $5S.000.000. The
taxes paid by the railroads in 1905,
therefore, was 4.19 per cent of the
taxable value. The taxes then
amounted to about $2,400,000.
If the council increases the assess
ment this year. as expected, in the sum
of about $35, 900, 900 or $4O,0O0,0o0 actu-
al value, based on the increase in net
earnings, the public treasures of the
state will garner about 100000 addi-
tional taxes from the railroads next
wear if the average of the levy keeps
up.

tance telephone line has poles and does
business. and which get the benef1t OF
