him until recently, when the police
found it was not only a means of To-
comotion, but a storehOuse for lock
picks, false keys, liquor and money.
Twice Woods had sawed his way
out of cells in the Trenton avenue po-
lice station in a way that mystif1ed
the turnkeys and house sergeants,
said Spencer. Once Woods, apparent
ly sober, was placed in a cell. An hour
later he was uproariOusly drunk. He
was taken out of his cell and search
ed, all but his wooden leg, and then
he was again detected cutting the lock
from his cell door with a fine saw.
The wooden leg supplied the key
to the mystery. 1t had been followed
out and in this cavity were found a
Canteen Of whisky, a roll of money, a
set of fine saws and several keys.
After that, Spencer. said, Woods
was never locked in a cell until his

ALCOHOL OF GARBAGE
ROCKFORD PHYSICIAN CLAIMS I'M.
PoRTANT DISCOVERY.
Makes Proposition to City Officials Of
Milwaukee to Take Charge of
Plant-Says He Can Ef-
feet Great Saving.

Milwaukee, Wis.-That denatured
alcohol can be made from garbage and
that an important industry is about to
be created is the contention of DIR. w.
A Boyd, of Rockford, H., who has
made a proposition to Milwaukee to
take charge of its garbage and to save
the city $4,000 a year if it uses his
method instead Of the municipal plant
that it now operates.
The city is paying at the rate of
S1.S9 a ton for burning the garbage
and its plant is nearly a wreck. DR..
Boyd has offered to do the work at 20
cents a ton. a saving of $1.19 a ton,
and at the end of ten years to turn the
plant over to the city free of charge
He says that experiments that he has
carried on in Chicago convince him
that even at his low figures he can
make a good profit.
A number of cities in the country
are now investigating DR.. Boyd's sys-
tenn, among them Milwaukee, Lancas-
ter, Pa, and Long Branch, n. ].
Milwaukee has had no end of trou-
bic. The authorities originally esti-
mated that its city plant would cost
$4,000, but it cost over 100000 be-
fore it was fini-hed
Then il was discovered that the
plant had been built on a quicksand
foundation and that it was in danger
Of sliding into the river. Then it was
found that it could not be operated
with as small a force as had been esti-
mated. A much larger force had to be
engaged and as a result the expense
increased
Then the machinery gave out and
finally graft was discovered. Politics
had crept into the plant and politicians
used it as an easy berth for their
friends.
One case was discovered in which a
politician sold the garbage collectors
old horses and wagons at exOrbitant
prices in consideration for getting
them the positions. The collectors in
turn went outside the city, collected
garbage at so much barrel, pocketed
the fee and brought the stuff into the
city to be burned at the city plant at
city expense.
An investigation also showed that
the coal bills at the plant were enOr
nous and inquiry developed that the
city was footing the fuel bills of a
neighbOrhOod that was using city coal
to heat the homes. Finally the ma
chinery gave out and the plant was
closed. Just now the city is burying
its garbage.
The proposition of the Rockford ply
sician, who was formerly health COM
missioner there, seems to be a good
way out of the dilemma and il is prob
able that his offer will be accepted.
! The council has written to a number
of eastern cities and most Of them
favor reduction over incineration. DR..
Bading, the health commissioner, is
opposed to reduction and for that rea-
son the council has sent out a number
of letters to eastern cities to secure
information as to the best methods.
DR.. Boyd says that the possibilities
from garbage are much more than
most people believe. He says that fer
tiliZer and grease alone make garbage
profitable to handle, but under the new
government law the manufacture of
denatured alcohol will greatly reduce
the cost of the disposal of refuse.

FIGURES ON UNKNOWN ARMY"
Commissioner of Pensions Says Num-
Der Will Not Exceed 5000.

WashingtOn.-"The unknown army
has been the subject Of much COntrO-
versy in discussing the forces en-
gagged in the civil war" said Commits
sioner of Pensions Warner the other
day in speaking of the pension roll,
but never until the McCumber serv-
ice pension bill became a law was
there a means for determining any
thing about its extent The unkI own
army has come to be so called Ian gely
because its members did not apply for
pensions. This they did not do on
account of the various reasons of
delicacy, pride or Indifference, but
most of these causes have been re-
moved by the passage of the service
law
$50 far there have been about $780,
900 applications under the new law.
but of these only a little over one per
cent are in the shape of the original
applications, or, in other words appli-
cations of the hitherto unknown pos
sible pension claimants. Certainly
the entire number will not exceed
5000"
The records Of the pension Office
show that 2,351 of the civil war PEN
sioners died in February, but there
are still 652, ,48S of them left on the
pension rolls.

WILL AUCTION HER BRAIN.
Woman Offers to Sell Gray Matter to
Colleges for Science.

Richmond, Va.-Mrs. N. L. Francis,
who has offered to sell her brain to
universities and colleges IN this city.
Philadelphia, Chicago and New York,
and her body with it after her death,
to the highest bidder in order that she
may have the material comforts Of life
during her remaining years, said:
Yes, l do want to sell my brain,
and / don't see why the colleges don't
want to buy it. l need money and l
need It badly. We are not in actual
want. but we need money. I have
heard of people selling their bodies
and brains, and l thought l would
offer mine for sale. / don't care what
they do with me when 1 am dead"
The woman is 40 years of age and
broken in health. She is the fourth
wife of her husband, who was several
years ago incapacitated for work by
reason of an accident which deprived
him of the use of one of his hands.
Mrs. Francis said that she had
heard that the students of medicine
had access only to the brains and
bodies Of criminals and paupers and
that they had no idea what the gray
matter of an intelligent person looked
like. Hence her belief that her propo.
sition to sell would meet with instant
acceptance

OLDEST ORCHARD IN AMERICA.
Apple Trees Near Estancis, N. NJ, sIx
Feet in circumference.

San Francisco.-The Oldest apple
orchard in America, if not in the world,
is in the center of the ancient town
of Manzano, IS miles southwest of
Estancia. Torrance county, New Mex
leo. Many of the trees are more than
six feet In circumference, but all are
still fruitful and vigorous, although
neglected for generations. Little is
known of the history of the orchard.
but the oldest inhabitants of the val
ley of the Rio Grande remember the
orchard from childhood, and claim that
the trees have not changed in appear
ance since then Venerable Mexicans
and Pueblo Indians tell of visiting the
orchard as far back as they can re-
member and finding apples on the
ground in all stages of decomposition
at least two feet deep.
The Estancia valley has been peo-
pied for ages, probably by the kinsmen
of the natives found by the Spanish
explorers at Gran Quivira, Abo and
other ancient cities. Probably in the
early days of the Spanish occupation
some Franciscan monk found his way
to Manzano and there planted the
seeds that have developed into these
venerable trees. They are no doubt
fully 800 years old. Close by the
orchard is a little lake fed by a large
spring. A short distance away is a
grove of pines and cedaTs, making an
ideal place for picnic and camping
parties.

The principal thing to do, said he,
is to persuade people to begin fighting
the disease in its first stages, when it
can be cured, for after it has passed a
certain period all learning can avail
nothing. 1t is certain, he declared,
that science has as vet no cure for
consumption.
1t is folly and a waste of money,
time and hope, he said, to send pa
tients to Colorado and other sO-called
cure climates. With proper care and
treatment the patients are better of

said, is the mental worry incident to
the disease Consumption slays, he
said, more victims than any other
