Thrilling Adventure.

With dislocated leg, a twisted an.
kle, numerous cuts and abrasions. and
large patches of skin burned Off, S. J.
Demaresq,. lumberman, is in a local
hospital, thankful that he is alive, after
one of the most exciting adventures
that man ever went through.
Demaresq was at work at a lumber
camp on Hotham Sound when he slip
ped and fell into n dry shiugle fume
Down this, for 1000 feet, he shot at so
great a rate that the skin was burned
from his body by the friction. From
the end of the fume he shot n distance
of twenty five feet into the sea, He
managed to keep a6oat until he reached
some rocks, $50 feet away He was
too weak to Chamber upon the rocks,
but managed to cling to them until he
was rescued by his wife.
His wife was on the island, a quarter
OF mile away, and was informed by
her children that man had shot down
the hume and was clinging to the rocks
and shouting for help, Unaided. the
woman launched a heavy boat and put
or TO the rescue, little dreaming that
the lmperiled man was her husband.
When she reached him her amazement
and terror at discovering his identity
made her 80 weak that it was with diff
hculty she was able to drag him into
the boat. Nevertheless. she succeeded
IN doing so, and then managed to pet
him from the boat to the house. Then
she set off to the lumber camp for as
sistance.-Vancouver (B. C.) Cor St.

building for the purpose of improving
and enlarging the hotel. That is all we
know about it at this time. Some al
terations of the Halls hotel building
have been under consideration by Mr.
Phipps for some time. But the New
house project, OF which the Halls build
ing is near neighbor, may lead to a
material change in the future disposi-
tion of this property,
''Mr. Phipps has large real estate
interests here. his investments running
into the millions. We collect rents OF
sixty-seven houses owned by him every
month. Mr.. Phipps is shrewd, saga
cious, enterprising business man, OF
ample means, and when he begins TO
improve some of his holdings here the
people will see that something is be-
ing done TO further the growth and ex-
pand the business of Salt Lake But
there is absolutely nothing definitely
agreed upon along this line by Mr..
Phlpps as yet, the statement of pub
lication to the contrary notwithstand.
ing
Mr.. Tuttle spoke of many buildings
in the business district of Salt Lake
that might be improved in such manner
that 1t would not only be a benefit
to the building itself, but it would have
the effect of enhancing the value Of adj
joining property.
'Don't you think, Mr.. Tuttle, that
in order to support a greater Salt Lake.
this city should be made manufactur-
ing center?''
Most assuredly, and in order to se-
cure them and get them established, the
railroads must. and 1 think will, CO.
operate in establishing and maintaining
manufactures here. They can materially
assist In these enterprises by adopting
uniformly low rate for the transpor-
tation Of raw materials, etc. Manufac.
tories are bound to come; they cannot
much longer be kept out.
In order to make Salt Lake n great
city, one thing must be done. The peo-
pie must all pull together for Greater
Salt Lake.

the old custom of New Year s calls and

The custom of calling on one s

Uses Of Sawdust,

Many are the uses of sawdust. In
the days when the sawdust wagon made
its numbering rounds through the
streets of most large cities two com
mercial uses Of sawdust were to sprin-
kle floors and to shelter lead pipes from
cold and glass bottles from breakape.
Near every sawmill was vat for the
sawdust, and il was carted away free
by any one who had any use for ii. In
this era of the use OF by.products saw
dust has commercial value. It is no
longer given away, but is sold.
One of the recent uses of sawdust is
its distillation, resulting in acetic acid,
wood alcohol, wood naphtha and tar,
Sawdust may also be burned in special
furnaces or mixed with other material
for fuel.
Sawdust, when saturated with chemi-
calls. can be effectively used in the man
ufacture OF explosives. but il is more

ing than for any other purpose Such

pet is now practically unknown. Saw
dust has joined sand in this respect.
Cotton felt has been substituted for
sawdust as a non.coudnctor of cold in
winter. Gas can be made from saw.
dust, IL Is also used for briduettes, i.
e., blocks of compfessed sawdust and
wood chips burned for fuel. Even in
the protection of glassware against
breakage sawdust has been superseded
by excelsior, sawdust being regarded as
too valuable for such use.-New York

The clubs have the matter under con-

Since he undertook the work twenty

effect Of establishing more firmly than

1t also goes to prove the generally ac-

is the coming section of the street. The
