Traces OF gold have been found just
east of Scranton. This is additional
evidence of the wonders in Kansas soil,
which is really in it's infancy as far as
development goes. Probably there are
few people in the state who are OPP
timistic enough to think that gold will
ever be found in extensively paying
quantities in Kansas dirt but a little
working OF the land and a little plant
ing OF seed and little caring for its
growth will bring returns of gold. or
It's equivalent, in large quantities.

A SUBSTITUTE FOR WOOD PULP

The chemists of the federal depart
ment OF agriculture claim to have
found a substitute for wood pulp in
the manufacture of paper that will
greatly cheaper the product. The new
material is the ordinary cornstalk and
the claim is made that the outer she'll
of the stalk will furnish white paper
while the pith will furnish material
for the brown.
Some years ago an alleged discovery
of the value of cornstalks in the man.

caused a good many piles of this ma

and stacked along railway stations, but
nothing ever came of 1t.
II government chemists have really
found way to cheaper paper and

has been just about so much waste in
the past, it will be a great gain all
around. But perhaps 1t would be well

Get Old Airship Patents.

Regarded as a dreamer during life,
DR.. Arthur de Bousset, who died three
years ago, provides in his will, filed
yesterday, material for a romance of
the skies. The beneficiaries under his
will believe the patents he had taken
out on airships and devices pertaining
thereto hitherto considered valueless,
have become of immense value through
the recent developments in aviation.
If their belief proves we'll founded those
who cared for the aged inventor in the
last years of his life will become
wealthy.
Dr. de Bousset, who was rs years old
when he died, in the home of Charles
A. McCready, broker, with offices in
the produce exchange, was well known
in this country and Europe as an ex-
perimenter in all things mechanical.
but more especially through his work
in aeronautics. In 1902 he obtained a
patent in this country for a machine
said to be more on the lines of Zeppe-
Inns device than any other, and the
next year similar patents were obtained
in Europe
None of these patents went beyond
the model stage, but. the aged man con-
WINGED some good mechanics that the
devices were practical
Subsequently, he made other fnven-
tions.7 including a propeller for boats,
which, it was stated yesterday, is now
being tested in a small vessel, and
other improvements in airships, none OF
which has been patented. All these pa
pers, plans and models he left with has

also left will. dated May 9, 1904.

| Use of value that 1t was not thought
worth while offering the instrument for

mans models and patents were forgot

Wrights the patents and papers were
recalled mechanics were called in to
pass judgment upon them, and on theiI
advice that the patents possess value

day.-New York Herald.
