PUT WASPS TO WORK
IN BIG PAPER MILL
Special to The Herald.

Special to The Herald.
WILLAMETTE, Ore, Aug. 1.-At
last one of the forces of nature is to
be turned to account, and the vicious
wasp will be made to furnish paper.
This insect is the original paper maker,
and it builds its home of pulp.
Observing this, jeremiah Tubbs is
collecting millions of wasps and install-
ing them in a factory building near
here. In the factory is collection of
unique machinery.
1t is the intention of Mr. Tubbs to
domesticate the wasps to such de-
gree that, like homing pigeons, they
will return to the factory. each night.
The first instinct of wasp is to build
home, and taking advantage OF this,
the ingenious inventor will have the
insect enter a small compartment and
place a layer of paper on a roll. AS
the roll moves around slowly the pa
permaking process will continue, and
since millions of wasps will be busy 1t
is expected the plant will have a ca
pacity of ten tons day.
This is not a large output, but since
the quality of the paper will be high,
and since there is no cost for raw ma
terial, it will be very profitable.
AS the wasps hibernate during the
winter, no effort will be made during
the summer to finishing the paper, but
the whole time will be occupied in
turning out the rough product.

WORK ON SUBWAY
is ON IN EARNEST
WRECKERS DISMANTLE HOUSES
ON RIGHT OF WAY
Excavatinq viii Start Soon on Los
AngeIes-Pacific Enterprise Along
North Hill Street-May ,Aban-
don Overhead Wires

Actual work of dismantling for the
subway tunnel of the Los Angeles-Pa-
cific line has begun.
Gangs of men are at work on Cali
fornia street and on Sunset boulevard
wrecking old buildings and chopping
trees which will be in the way.
About fifty men are now engaged but
this force will be increased.
The northern end of the tunnel will be
in the 600 block on Sunset boulevard,
and here an ornamental entrance will be
built.
Shrewd property owners have already
planned business structures near that
point.
In a few days, it is thought, excavat-
ing will begin, though on a small scale
at first.
Later electricity and compressed air
will be used for construction work,
three shifts of men will be kept busy
and the underground bores between
First and Temple streets and beyond Will
begin all along Hill street.
The Los Angeles-Pacific contemplates
trying the Mahoney third-rail system
controlled by the Golden State Realty
company's officers.
This does away with the overheard
wire. President Sol Davis says the rails
are not charged except between the for
ward and rear trucks of the cars at a
point where one could not come in con-
tact with them.
Inventor Timothy Mahoney says an ex-
perimental line will be built to Sherman
and big contracts are pending with San
Francisco and Chicago.

BY decision rendered in the probate

her $4,000 estate will not go toward

Objectionable.
.'She gave her entire estate for char
liable purpose, but not more than one

to mean that it shall be one-third after

heirs of the executrix.
''There are no beneficiaries named or
identified other than such persons as are
included in the classes specified or re-
ferred to in the will, and this of itself de-
termines the character and object of the

Ordinance and Not Mushet.
Month Allowed to Form
Plans

Fifty members of the Hotel and Restau-

Levy's cafe last evening and took up the
question of City Auditor Mushets state
ment. which amounts to demand on no.
tel keepers to make known to him the
amount of gross receipts for each month.
There were several spirited speeches,
mainly to the effect that no other line of
business in Los Angeles Is taxed, but
none of the speakers condemned the city
auditor for attempting to carry out the
law as he sees 1t.
The matter was left in the hands of the
executive committee, which is to report at
a meeting of the general body within one
month. The belief is that the association
will decide to fight the ordinance on
which Mushet bases his demand.

CAT CAME BACK AFTER ITS
FALL OF Fifteen FLOORS

Special to The Herald.
CHICAGO Aug. IA cat, the pet of
the Midday club, fell fifteen stories in
the area way of the First National
Bank building and is alive and well.
The animal plunged from window
of the millionaires' lunch room on the
eighteenth floor in the big loop sky
scraper to the skylight of the bank quar-
ters on the third floor. The heavy wire
screening above the glass was bent and
twisted by the impact and a few pieces
of glass fell to one of the clerks cages
on the floor below, but the cat escaped
uninjured. Fifteen minutes after the
fall the animal returned to it's quarters
in the eighteenth floor lunch room.
Choosing probable death down the
light shaft in preference to a struggle
with a Boston terrier, the animal
leaped. AS a group of the lunchers
reached the window they heard crash
on the heavy glass skylight, fifteen
floors below.
All believed the cat had been crushed
to death. A quarter of an hour later,
while the "horrible death" was being
discussed at a score of tables, the
frightened cat came back. 1t skunk
toward the kitchen and disappeared.

TO PICK CHERRIES

FRESNO, Aug 1-Several farmers
intend using robins to pick their cher
ries during the next few weeks.
The finest fruit always grows at the
top, where it is dangerous to climb, and
hardly a season in this neighborhood

bones from falls.
The robins will be trained to re-

pected to carry the choice cherries to
the packing houses and pack them in
even layers. They will be rewarded by
allowing them to eat the poorer fruit
at the close of thesseason.

also planning to develop grasshoppers
so that they will NOW the hay and

NEW YORK, Aug. IA light which

Globes of various sizes, the largest
one inclosing light of 150,000-candle
power, were suspended on ropes. The
test was begun with lamp of between
$500 and 5000 candle power. The next
was of from 10000 to $4,000 candle
power. Some of the witneeMes 100
yards away from the lamp EAse able

fairly dazzled the eyes of spectators.
and they were compelled to turn away.
Twenty carbons were used in the

in the ordinary arc lights, the current
sent through the Scott lamps is an
