WEALTH GOING TO WASTE.
CornstaIks Contain Enough Alcohol to
Run the COuntry's Machinery.

Observation-Disclosures Wiley of
the department of agriculture says
that inasmuch as every 100 pounds of
cornstalks will yield six and a half
pounds of absolute alcohol 1t is OBJ
vious that the ignorant agriculturist
has been allowing an enormous
amount of wealth to go to waste.
Say that one acre will yield from
ten to II tons of grain stalks, or about
10000 pounds, and you have a guam
tity of raw material which will pro-
duce 1900 pounds of absolute alcohol,
or 216 gallons. Alcohol at the present
time is worth 40 cents a gallon.
Ground in a wet condition and
dried, cernstalks may be kept indef-
nitely, and are ready at any time for
conversion into alcohol. Professor
Wiley says that the alcohol derivable
from the cOrnstalks that now go to
waste in this country would not only
drive all the machinery of the fac.
tories but would furnish the requisite
power for all the railroads and steam
boats, run all of the automobiles. heat
and illuminate all the houses and
light the streets of every city in the

PROUD OF HIS NEW NOSE.
Original, Frozen OFF, Is Replaced by
One of Vulcanite.

Philadelphia.-Greatly altered in ap-
pearance, but for the better, David
DOdsOn, Of Barnesboro, Pa, walked
out Of the dental hall Of the Universi.
ty of Pennsylvania, proud wearer of a
substitute for his nose that was frozen
off in a blizzard several years ago.
Last year Dodson prevailed on Dean
c. H. Frazier, of the medical depart,
ment, to attempt to graft a finger Of
his right hand on his face to form tba
nose. When the operation was about
to prove successful, Dodson, crazed bv
pain, pulled the finger out of its ulaea
and made the operation a failure.
The new nose is made Of hesh-coJ-
ored vulcanite, with block-tin tubes
and is held on the face by means of
a pair Of bow spectacles and a heavy
false mustache.
The case was handled by Philip
Kurtz, a senior Of the dental deparf-
ment, under the direction of DR.. A.
De Witt Gritman.

BUILDS HOUSE WITH CHIPS.
Georgia Doctor Has Unique Idea for
Utilizing Waste Marble.

Macon, Ga.-The patchwork palace
being built by DR.. w. w Billingslea
on Walnut street has reached the sec
ond story. In many respects this will
be the most unique dwelling-house in
Macon.
It was something over a year ago
when DR.. Billingslea conceived the
idea Of building a house with the
chips from the marble used in build
ing the new federal building in this
city. It was to be his own house,
planned and built by himself, after his
own ideas, so he drew the plans in
April and started to work.
He made arrangements with the
contractors at the government build
ing to cart away al the chips and
broken marble. Witt day laborers he
mixed the cement and marble and up
grew the walls.
The house is commodious. There
is to be a steel and cement roof, with
roof garden, and the elevator will run
from the basement.
With the exception OF the day labor,
Dr.. Billingslea has done all the work
on the house. Up to date the material,
labor and every expense amounts TO
less than $1,000, and he expects to
complete the building for less than
$500.
The building was inspected by In
spector Blumbarten, of the govern
ment building, whose only criticism
was that the walls were too strong.

Missouri Senator Gives Bard of Avon
Mere Credit Than ls Due.

Jefferson City, Mo.-The senate
struggled with the banking bill most
Of the other morning. The bill is one
BY WOrnAll to take control OF the
state bank examinations out Of the
hands Of the secretary OF state and
create = banking department The
bankers asked that the law do not
take effect until the end of the pres
ent administration as IL would dis
organize a capable force now in
charge OF the work. The bill was SO
worded.
The secretary of state being a Re-
publican, part of the Democrats want
ed the bill to take effect forthwith so
that the patronage could go into the
hands of their own party. McDavid
offered an amendment TO make the
law take effect this year. Farris, Ely
and Avery were fighting for McDav-
ids amendment when Farris, answer
ing some comments by Humphrey,
said:
In the language of Shakespeare,
Evil to him who evil thinks"

speare's plays do you find that Ian

Farris: 81 don't remember"

McDavid's amendment failed and
the senate finally engrossed the bill

To ENRICH IHt POOR
MExIco's RICHEST MAN MAY DIS
TRIBUTE MILLIONS.
Thousands of Alvarado's countrymen
to Receive Aid from him-He May
Yet Pay His coantry's Ma
tionaI Debt-Rapid Rise.

City Of Mexico.-Dame Rumor has
it that Don Pedro Alvarado, the rich
est man among the Mexicans, is about
to distribute several million pesos
among the poor of his country. He is
the owner of the phenomenal Palmil-
10 mine, in Parral, state Of Chihuahua,
and his only peer in wealth is Don
Luis TerraZas, ex-governor of the
state of Chihuahua, and father-in-law
OF Hon. Enrique Clay Creel, the new
Mexican ambassador to Washington.
AlVarado is rated at $3.50, ,000, 900,
Mexican money. OF course, that is a
moderate fortune alongside those of
Rockefeller, Belt and other billion
aires, but the Mexican millionaire, if
Dame RumOr is correct, is about to
teach a lesson TO many a man who
might prOftably go and 40 likewise.
1t is said that Don Pedro will dis
tribute the sum of ten million pesos
among the needy poor of Mexico soon.
1t is not his plan to give the cash
outright, but to provide homes and
lands for the poor, and equip them so
they can earn their living at trades
and on plantations. It is a sort of CO
operative plan; this philanthropic
man will cooperate with Providence
in the undertaking that will have
the effect of making 10000 Mexi-
cans Independent, educate as many
poor children and give away q
few odd millions every year. Ever
since he got his money he has spent
large sums along just such lines,
and the new idea therefore is
but broadening of old methods on
his part, for he has always been lib
eral to the poor and has erected quite
a number of churches and school
houses where they were needed in the
great state of Chihuahua
Six years ago Don Pedro Alvarado
was a poor miner, but soon fell under

the witchery of fortunes smiles. Near
ly two years ago he offered to the gov
ernment of Mexico what is unique in
human histOry-tO pay off its public
debt-but the offer was refused, while
most gTaciOusly acknowledged. But
1t is said that he proposes to come to
this city and see President DiaZ and
personally renew and press the offer
Don Pedro's capital is commencing
to roll up so swiftly that he could
easily pay off, with one check, the
public debt of $225,000, 900 carried by
Mexico, and that at an early date.
Thus he would save to his country at
least 100000 to $1OOOO,OOO per an
mum, as well as lift the principal it.
self.
Don Pedro AlVaradO's plan to pro-
vide homes for needy Mexicans on
huge scale, if carried out, will estab-
lish a precedent in human history,
and go to prove that after all the
world is getting better when men of
means will sacrifice for others. Senor
Alvarado is credited with saying
quite recently: 81 got my money from
the earth itself, which is a part of
Mexico, and Mexico ought to receive
some benefit from my acquisition"
He said this referring to his pet
scheme for paying the debt of his
country.
Referring to his other plan for dis
tributing relief to the needy of Mex
leo, Senor AlvaTadO is quoted as hay
ing said also last month, Mexico has
enriched me, why should not l enrich
my countrymen? To erect monu-
ments, establish libraries and uni
versities only helps the rich and their
children. But that form Of philan-
thropy does not feed the body, clothe
the naked nor save the souls Of the
deserving poor. I propose to give away
much of my wealth before I die, for
none of it can | take With me, and
only a fool will hoard wealth while
half the world starves." As Senor
AIvaradO has been in the habit Of
helping the poor who come within his
radial activity ever since he COM
meaced to acquire wealth, his words
have not only much Of power and
beauty and homeIy force, but all the
weight of consistent experimental en-
