New Process For
Making Steel.
"WO Australian inventors have

continuous treatment of iron ore, |

"WO Australian inventors have
discovered new process for the
continuous treatment of iron ore
and the results they have achieved
are so successful that the process is
to be exploited throughout the world.
1t is called the Heskett-Moore pro-
cess for directly converting iron ore
into malleable iron or steel by a con-
tinuous system, and 1t is claimed ef-
.fects saving of % per cent in the
manufacture. The ore is simply con-
centrated by ordinary methods, or IL
trically. until the pure oxide of iron
is obtained. The oxide of iron is passed
through a revolving cylinder heated
by waste gases from subsequent opera
tions and brought in that cylin or to
dull red heat. 1t drops from the
cylinder to a second similar cylinder,
and in the latter it is brought into con-
tact with the deoxidizing gas, which
is forced through and brought into
contact with the heated ore. The heat
ed ore is thus converted INTO pure
iron. Accompanied by and protected
by the deoxidizing gas. 1t is passed
into third chamber or melting hearth,
where 1T falls into a bath of molten
iron and is converted directl-- into steel
or balled up as malleable iron.
The savings claimed for the process
are those of time,' labor-the whole
process being automatic-fuel and
avoidance of flux The inventors claim
that they have discovered direct
method of producing steel from one
operation instead of using the blast
furnace and converter.

ROYALTY AS GUESTS.
Queen of Sandwich Islands in Eng land--German Kaiser at Windsor

Queen of Sandwich Islands in Eng
 land--German Kaiser at Windsor.
 Among the many foreign monarehs who have visited our shores within comparatively recent years, says the London Tit-Bits, one of the most ami able andpop ular was the late King of Portugal. of whom the following story is told:
 His Majesty, like his successor, was an enthusiastic lover of art, and one of his chief pleasures during his visit to England was to make the acquain- tance Of cur great painters, with whose names and fame he was fami- liar. When Sir Edwin (then Mr) Lanseer was introduced to him his de- light was unbound. "Ah tMr. Land seer, he exclaimed, as he advanced to greet the famous animal painter T am charmed to make your acquaintance. l am so very fond of beasts"
 Equally well meaning and unfortu- nate was the late Shah of Persia who, in spite of his great amiablity, ready "opened his mouth without putting his foot in it." Once. when the Duch- ess of Westminster was presented to him, he greeted her like an old and dear friend. "Ah!' he said. with
The daily morning journal and courier., 1906-12-19

charming bow, T have often heard of you Your fame has reached even Te- heran" Good gracious!' exclaimed the lady, aside, to a friend, the man thinks I am Westminster Abbey" And so he did.
 It was this same monarch who, when sitting at table one day noble- man and a lady of high rank, horri- fled them both by first Wiping his hands on the noblemans coat and then on the lady's skirts. as if their mission in life was to play the role of animated table napkins If he was unconventional at least no fault could be found with his piety, for he would suddenly break off an interview, or vanish in the middle of a garden party with the announcement, Now I am going to pray"
 Another interesting sovereign who was among our many royal guests at the time of the Diamond Jubilee was the sable Queen of the Sandwich Islands. Never did a queen exact more rigid for her dignity. While, other monarchs were only too glad to escape ceremonial as far as possible, her dusky Majesty declined to leave her apartments without a sovereign's s escort of Life Guards; while she de- clined to tread measure unless she had at least one of our Queens sons for partner
 Once she started to pay a vist to Lord Tennyson at his home in the Isle of Wight accompanied by a retinue of attendants. Hour after hour passed and still Lord Tenyson caught no glimpse of his royal guest, for whom he had prepared sumptuous throne At last, when hope had fled and the hands of the clock pointed to the Witching hour of night, the Queen ar rived, weary and bedraggled, without a single attendant and without a scrap of luggage She had lost them all on the way!
 Mr. Firth, the veteran artist, tells an amusing story of the Kaiser's first visit to England, The young Prussian Prince, then a mischievous boy of four was vastly interested in the picture of his uncles the Prince of Wales, we'd ding, which Mir Firth was then paint ing at Windsor, and nothing would please him but that he too should have a hand in 1t. To gratify the child the artist gave him brush and some colors and allowed him to daub away at will at the bottton of the canvas.
 After the juvenile artist had been at work few minutes Mir. Firth dis covered to his horror that much of the

paint which should have been on the canvas had found it's way to the young Princes face, which exhibited most of the colors of the rainbow. Seizing a rag and dipping it in turpentine. MT. Frith began to scrub away at the be- daubed face, while it's owner resent ing the process, set to work on his cleaner with feet and fists, bowling the while at the top of his voice. At this critical stage the door was opened and in walked the Grown Prince and Princess, at sight Of whom the boy darted under table, from which re- fuge neither threats nor entreaties cauld draw him.
 But certainly the most remarkable of all our royal visitors was Peter sae Great of Russia, who spent some months in England about two cen turies ago. Never, surely, was there a monarch quite so unconventional as this "Czar of Muscovyo of whom Evelyn tells us. At Saves Court, where a residence was found for him near the backyard, he led the most unroyal of lives He dimes at 10 o'clock and 6 at night" Evelyn records lis very seldom at home a whole day, very often in the Kings yard, or by water, dressed in several dresses"
 A fayorite exercise was to trundle a wheelbarrow in the grounds of Saves Court he spent much of his time working in the dockyard or rowing on the Thames in a backyard boat, and when the days work was done he and his cronies used to resort to public house in Great Tower street to smoke their pipes and drink their beer and brandy On one occasion his Majesty forsook the snug bar parlor and, dressed as a butcher, attended a masked ball in the Temple

bordering on one hundred will put the supreme court into the hands ot the democrats, giving them an actual, tan- gible majority in the court. Judge John M. Thayer, whose name has been used most by these minimizing advi- sers, has until 1913 for the completion of his present term in the superior court. The appointment of Chief Jus tice Torrance's s successor will be Tor an unexpired term, ending in July, 1909. It can hardly be thought that Judge Thayer himself would accept of the chance of discontinuing his judicial ca reer in two years by stepping into the shoes of the late chief justice, even if the general assembly would vote for him. Judge Frederic B. Hall of Bridgeport is the only one of the su- preme court judges whose term will eX- pire in 1907. His renomination for eight years is expected and his continuance in the office will be in keeping with the policy that has been pursued for years in the appointment of judges. Judge Samuel o. Prentice has two years longer on the supreme court bench, his present term expiring in July, 1909. His promotion to the chief justiceship under the circumstances would be one of the most natural of events. He was originally appointed judge of the SUI perior court by Governor Morgan G, Bulkeley and has steady grown in the pubic estimation and favor. He is man of high legal qualifications and would reflect honor on the supreme court as it's head. The term of Judge Baldwin will expire at the same time with that of Judge Prentice, He grad uated from Yale forty-five years ago, beng a classmate of General Brayton Ives, the New York banker, and of Ma jor John c. Kinney. By the time he has reached the end of his present term he will be dangerously near the age limit. That means that his retirement from the bench will be only matter of a couple of years or so. Judge Ham ersley has until 1910 for the completion of his term. He is also on the down road as respects years, but not ability, The reorganization of the supreme court it will be seen, is not far away at most. In four years at least the er-
 mine will grace new shoulders in that august body

The Inns of old England.

Efforts were continually being made
in England to keep down the number
of inns. In the reign Of Edward l.
there were only three in the whole Of
London. Even in 1862 no more thaI
forty were legally permitted in the me-
tropolis, now spreading out its bound
aries on every side. York might have
eight, Norwich, Exeter and Cambridge
four, Bristol six and oxford three.
These regulations must have been set
at naught in a very wholesale manner,
for half century later there were 400
"houses of calr' in that part Of London
known as the City and no fewer than
twenty-four clustered round Covent
Garden. In medieval oxford 1T was
ruled that no "victualer' was eligible
for the office of mayor, and this term
included an innkeeper.

THE WARLlKE MOROS.
They Prize Their Weapons and Would
Rather Fight Than Eat.

An inordinate military conceit Is n
dominant quality Of the Moro To him
there is but one measure of defeat-tO
wit, annihilatiOn. If beaten, he ex-
poets nothing less; if he meets less, he
has saved the day, perhaps won vic
tory. They are all of one profession
arms. AS children their first toys are
wooden arms, their first instruction the
play of the sword and the spear. What
ever else as men they may be-priest,
farmer, robber. pirate, merchant, law
yer-they are always, first, soldiers.
For a young man to lose his creese
means to lose his right to marry, and
it is the desire of all to die creese in
hand. In fear Of loss they sleep on
these precious arms or with them tied
to the body. For the same reason their
cannon are kept lashed to timbers in
their houses.
Firearms, indeed, are their main dan
ger with civilized people. If they see
the opportunity thereby to secure such
arms, Moros can never resist the temp
tation to rob and murder. To get them
they will risk all, lose all and never
whimper. To them without the best
arms death were preferable.-Major X.

MAY BE SAVED BY LETTER.
Attorney Cooper Gets Communication
In Nature of New Evidence.

HI Ndk6IC Ot NOW ENIOCHCCs
Macon, Ca, July 11.-Attorney John
r. Cooper, Of Macon, who has fought
so hard and SO persistently to save old
man Rawlings and the Rawlings boys
from the gallows, has received a let
ter which he thinks removes all ques-
ton as to his ability to do what he
undertook to do in the beginning, that
is, to save their lives. The letter is
in the nature of newly discovered evi-
dence 1t is from man who stands
we'll in the section in which he lives.
He makes it appear that Mr.. Carter,
whose children were killed, believed
at the time of the killing that the as
sassin did not at any time intend to
kill the children, but that he was lying
in hiding to kill Carter, and that the
children and the dogs accidentally
stumbled, over him and the dogs
chased him, and the assassin shot the
children in order to escape without be-
ing detected.
Mr.. Cooper claims that Alf Moore,
the self-convicted negro, who was
hired to do the killing, furnishes the
only evidence on which the Rawlings
boys were convicted, and that as Alf
Moore was a willing hireling for the
purpose of committing murder, it is an
outrage to hang innocent boys because
he sees fit to imp1icate them. He
thinks the letter from Stockton will
show that even Mr.. Carter did not at
one time believe the killing of the
children was Intentional or premeditat-
ed, or that the Rawlings boys had any
thing to do with 1t.
If there is no new trial the letter
cannot be used as evidence in court,
because it comes too late, but it can
be used before the pardon board.
